Easter Time.
Easter is a reason of lovliness and
thankfulness, a holiday beautiful be
yond words. It is at this time that
flowers come to bloom and all Nature
takes on the aspect of Spring. It is
at this time that men with faith the
world over rejoice in the contentment
engendered by that faith.
On Easter Sunday we take our af
ternoon walks, dressed in the modes
of the moment. Just as the very
ground beneath us is bedecking itself
for the occasion, so do we put on our
prettiest to mark this significant day.
But our observance of Easter must
not he only an exterior one, apparent
only in the garments that we don.
To be really in line in the Easter
parade, it is necessaiy to feel inward
ly the great emotions that Easter
should create. The hallowed tradi
tions of the holiday must permeate
us—we should not alone dress better,
but should also be higher spiritually
on this day of days.
More important than all, we should
on this day go to our churches and
bow our heads in prayer to the Master
whose blessings follow us at every
•tep.

mention of any arrests for exceeding
the speed limit, we presume that none
was made. And what a splendid op
portunity was paesed up to enrich
the county treasury and at the same
time curb the desire of other ama
teur racers to break the record of 70
miles thus established, with the at
tendant danger to other users of the
road!
A Fight on His Hands.
It begins to look as though Sena
tor C. L. Blease will have quite a
fight on his hands in the campaign
next year—and the fight will come
whether he runs for reelection or as a
candidate for governor, as many pre
dict will be the case. The fiery Sena
tor emphatically denies the dharge
that he contributed $500 in 1921 to
Joe Tolbert’s Republican campaign
fund, but that charge, like Banquo’s
ghost, is going to be hard to “stay
put,” regardless of whether it be
false, as the junior Senator contends.
It is going to be woven and inter
woven with Senator Blease’s vote on
numerous occasions with the Grand
Oil Party, in spite of the fact that
his oath as a candidate for the high
office he now holds requires him to
“support the political principles and
policies of the Democratic party dur r
ing the term of office” to which he
was elected and further requires him
to work in accord with his Democratic
associates in Congress on all party
questions.
The People-Sentinel prefers to be
lieve that the Senator is innocent of
this charge—not that we have any
particular liking or admiration for
the man but rather for the great re
spect i n which we hold the Senatorial
toga that illustrious predecessors wore
with such dignity and honor to them
selves and the great State they rep
resented.
In Memoriam—Henry Hutto.
Barnwell County boys and girls
have a habit of making good. Many
of these ate known personally to the
present generation, but every now
and then other distinguished citizens
claim this as their native heath. One
of these is Clark Howell, editor of the
Atlanta ('onstitution. How many
readers of The People-Sentinel knew
the he was born in Barnwell? This
information was contained in a
recent editorial that appeared in The
Columbia Record under the caption,
‘Mr. Howell Cheers Carolina.” It is
reproduced herewith:
(lark Howell, eminent editor of The
Atlanta Constitution, has been to all
intents and purposes a Georgian for a
long time, comparatively speaking,
but he never has shown any desire to
forget that he was born at Barnwell,
.South Carolina, or that he ha 8 lost in
terest in his native State.
Speaking before the Charleston Ro
tary Club at the Francis Marion Hotel
the other day, Mr. Howell reminded
Charlestonians that they did not ap
pear to realize their resources, attrac
tions and advantages. These things,
he charitably concluded are perhaps
too near Charlestonians for them to
get the proper perspective.
We think Editor Howell makes the
logical conclusion and he might well
have grouped all South Carolina in his
^picture. If the people of the whole
commonwealth would wake up day
after tomorrow with a distinct will to
sell South Carolina, as Florida, Cali
fornia, and North Carolina have been
doing for some years, the State would
blossom as a rose over night.
Over in St. Matthews, according to
The Calhoun Times, the owner of a
new Ford roadster and the proud
possessor of a Chevrolet Six got into
en argument over the speed of their
respective cars. Ford challenged
\Jhevrolet to a race to settle the dis
pute. The course, w T e are told, w’as
between a store and a filling station
three miles distant, presumably over
a public highway. The Chevrolet is
*aid to have “nosed out by a scant
three or four feet, after attaining the
bigh speed of seventy miles an hour.
This race has settled the question of
supremacy between, the Chevrolet and
Ford as to speed and power, but we
■will leave it for the reader to decide
'which he or she prefers,” says The
Times.
The lawful speed limit on a put
highway is, we believe, 45 miles
hour. Under certain conditions
that speed would be considered rei
loss and excessive. Then what of t
•utomibiles, evidently traveli
abreast and occupying practica
the width of the roadway since
wa§ “nosed out” by the other 4
a scant three or four feet” ? Supp
drivers of other cars, unaware
highway had been turned tempo
into a race-course, had ventu

Hilda, March 22.—The many friends
of Henry Hutto were grieved to learn
of his death, which oecuir*»d Tuesday
morning, February 19th, at 1:00 o’-
clo<k at his home.
He wag K8 years of age and was
one of the old Confederate Veterans.
; He was horn August 18, 1840. He
, fought bravely and vigorously in the
Civil War from 1801 to 1805. He
fought for freedom and believed it to
be his duty for his country and
| friends. He was honorable, chivalrous
and loyal.
He had not been sick but two weeks
when the fair angels took him away
I to the hle-sd home above, where we
I will meet him again some day.
Fureral services were held at the
Friendship Baotist Church by the Rev.
W. R. Davis, of Williston. His body
wa> laid to re t in the Friendship
cemetery Wednesday mornirg, Feb-
j ruary 20th, at 11:00 o’do.k.
A large conccurse of relatives and
friends gathered to pay their last
tribute of respect. The flowers that
covered his last resting place, attested
| in some measure the esteem in which
he was held. He was a Mason and
was buried by the Masons. He held
the respect and confidence of the peo
ple.
Surviving him are the following:
Three sisters, Mrs. Lizzie Still, of
near Barnwell; Mrs. Susie Dyehes, of
Swansea, and Mrs. Julia Lancaster, of
Georgia; eleven children, William and
Wash Hutto, of Barnwell; Augustus
and Sammie Hutto, of Hilda; Benja
min Hutto, of Denmark; Mrs. Lucy
and Emma Creech, of Hilda; Mrs. Mag
and Mrs. Susan Ray, of Nashville, Ga.;
Mrs. Sallie Hutto ,of Alabama, and
Mrs. Annie Dehay, of Denmark;
about 65 grandchildren, and a large
number of great grandchildren, who
have the sincere sympathy of the en
tire county in their bereavement.

He is gone but not forgotten,
Never will his memory fade;
Loving thoughts will always linger
Around the grave where he is laid.
