A poor nut is pushing a peanut up
Fike’s Peak with his proboscis.
lit “Uncle Tom’s Cabin*’ Tactics.
Not long ago certain daily news
papers published a picture of a boy
and a girl. They were from one of the
mills in the strike area of the South
and had been carried to Washington:
to appear before the investigating
committee. They were apparently
undernourished and sickly. Whether in
tentional or not, the impression was
given that they were typical of the
Southern mill workers.
Such tactics are manifestly unfair
to the mill owners and are a reflec
tion upon the mill workers as a whole.
There are undernourished, anaemic
persona in all walks of life but they
are not regarded as being typical. As
a rule, mill workers are better paid
than the average farmer or farm
laborer but so far we have not seen
any pictures of emaciated agricultur
ists being published broadcast in an
effort to win sympathy for the farm
relief movement.
In spreading propaganda to in
fluence public opinion the propagand
ists, unfortunately, do not always ad
here strictly to facts. They believe
that the end to be accomplished justi-
fles the means. If there had been an
honest attempt to show the true con
dition of of the mill workers, pictures
of the well-fed, contented employes
could have been easily found. If
there be anything radically wrong
With the textile situation in the South,
H can be remedied without resorting
to “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” tactics.
The Joy of Being the Editor.
Getting out this paper is no picnic.
If we print jokes, people sc.y we ore
•Uly;.
If we don’t, they say we are too
serious.
If we clip things from other pa
per*. we are too lory to write tnem
ourselves.
If we don’t, we are stuck on our
own stuff.
If we stick close to the job all day,
wo ought to be out hunting up news.
If we go out and try to hustle, we
ought to be on the job in the office.
If we don’t print contributions, we
don’t appreciate genius;
And if we do print them the paper
ia filled with junk.
If we make a chnnge in the other
fallow’s write-up, we are too critical.
If we dont, we are asleep.
Now like as not some guy will say
Ws swiped this from some magazine.
We did.—Exchange.
Auto Dealer Makes
Long Non-Stop Run
Drives New Car 800 Miles in 19
Hours Five Minutes.—Train
Time Nearly 31 Hours.
Nearly fifteen years ago A. H. Pat
terson established a road racing rec
ord that, it is said, never has been
equalled, when under American Auto
mobile Association rules, he copped
the Grand Prix road record covering
the Santa Monica, CaL, road course
•t an average speed of 78.32 miles an
hour for the 408 miles. This was a
non-stop run, with no tire changes
made.
Just to show that he has lost none
of his old-time finesse in burning up
the highways, “Pat,” as he is known
in and around Stockton 1 , Cal., where at
present he is an Oakland-Pontiac
♦dealer, drove from his place of busi
ness to the Grand Canyon of the Colo-
rado, a matter of 800 miles, in nineteen
hours and five minutes, using om the
run a new Oakland All-American Six
Landaulet sedan.
f
Train time for the same route is
/thirty hours and 57 minutes ( 250 mileg
of the course extending over the Mo-
Java desert.
Patterson stated that the object of
the run was to demonstrate that an
Objective 800 miles was accessible
Biriag a week-end trip because of the
■mchanlcsl development of the mod-
itomobile.
His return drive was leisurely
tnade fat approximately 84 hours of
driving, requiring hi consumed driv-
* g time lees than 44 hours for s dio-

GARB DOESN'T MAKE
THE MAN IN RUSSIA
Sheer Necessity Forces Out
lawry of Style.
Moscow.—In the Soviet capital, at
least, clothes do not make the man;
nor the woman, for that matter. Style
Is among the antiquated "bourgeois”
notions thrown into discard by the
Bolshevik revolution.
Sheer necessity—the lack of textiles
and of cash—had more to do with out
lawing style than did Communist prin
ciples. In the bitter years of civil
strife and famine people were happy
enough to have their bodies covered
without bothering about the cut or col
or of the covering. While conditions
are incomparably better, those who
can afford to worry about the hang of
their trousers or their skirts are still
a small minority.
Many men, of course, threw off the
yoke of a tailored jacket for the free
dom of a peasant blouse out of revo
lutionary ardor; but the overwhelming
majority did so because their Jackets
had fallen to pieces and they could
not buy a new one.
Th« Russian Flapper.
A generation of Russian girls adopt
ed rough boyish attire and scoffed at
female finery. One may be pardoned
for guessing, however, that many of
them were making a virtue of neces
sity. Certainly the first sign of easier
economic conditions here, as in the
rest of the world, was the better-
dressed young woman. The Russian
"flapper”—a hoy’s cap pulled rakish
ly over her close-cropped head and a
man’s overcoat over her nondescript
dress—Is definitely on the decline.
Between poverty and principle; how
ever, style has fared badly enough.
Anything but stark nakedness (and
the rigors of Russian climate'discour
age that) passes muster. Moscow un
doubtedly holds the world record for
diversity of costume. The queerest
sartorial combinations will attract not
the slightest attention on Moscow
streets. The most grotesque patch
work passes unnoticed.
Another result of the discording of
style Is that one can no longer Judge
anyone’s social status from his or her
clothes. The fellow you hump Into
on the stairway may be the commis
sar or the humblest of his clerks—you
can’t tell from his apparel. Indeed, If
he shows a tendency towards elegant
Euro|>eon dress lie Is most likely to
be the clerk.
Foreigners who have visited Moscow
over n period of years agree that in
genera’ people here are enormously
better dressed than a few years ago,
although the standard is still far be
low western Europe, or even a city
like Warsaw. Smartly dressed women
are more In evidence and the popular
ity of "Modes," a pitiful little maga
zine devoted to the Paris fashions,
may be a sign of the tlmea.
Fruit Growers Profit
From Europe’s Winter
Lindsay, Calif.—The "Its an ill
wind—” adage was borne out literally
in Europe this year, with California
orange growers reaping the benefit of
the suffering of European growers.
The most severe European winter
In 230 years caused great damage to
the Spanish citrus crop, next largest
in the world to that of California.
One result was that the California
Fruit Growers’ exchange has already
moved its first shipload of oranges to
Europe, docking In I-ondon the latter
part of April. Others are being
loaded, and before the season ends it
is estimated California citrus growers
will have benefited to the extent of
marketing 2,500 carloads of their
product that never would have been
able to compete with European grow
ers under ordinary circumstances.
The extra market proved extremely
fortuitous to California groovers, bur
dened with an unusually large Valen
cia crop. It Is estimated more than
1,000,000 boxes of oranges will go to
Europe this season at prices that will
net the grower from 12 to $4 a box.

Jesse Belton Ncrris.
New Hampshire Man Has
Wagon 113 Years Old
Franklin, N. H.—Frank H. Gerlach
says he owns a wagon one hundred
and thirteen years old and In perfect
running condition. It has original
tires and paint, he says, and he has
absolute proof os to Its age.
It is said to be one of the very
first wagons that Abbott Downing, the
famous builder of the Concord coach,
constructed. It has no springs sim
ilar to the leaf springs In use on
wagons and automobiles today, but it
nevertheless rides like a cradle. In
place of springs there are leather
straps running from the front to the
rear axles and the body of the wagon
Is suspended upon these similar to
the manner in which the stage coaches
were constructed. * *
At the places on the leather where
the front wheels hit when the wagon
Is turned there is a protection In the
shape of steel plates to prevent the
tires from wearing out the leather.
v Jesse Belton Norris, age 37 years,
son of Mr. and Mrs. W.-B. Norris, of
this county, died in Augusta, Ga., May
28th, 1929, and his body now rests
in: Mt. Olivet Churchyard in sight of
his childhood home and near the banks!
of the little stream where, as a boy,
he hunted, fished and swam, gathered
wild flowers and listened to the sweet
sorgs of the birds, and no doubt spent
the happiest moments of his life. It
is at this stage of his life that we
like best to remember him, when his!
innocent heart knew not the cares of
a cruel world.
We carnot realize that he is gone,'
neither can we understand why he
was taken. We must submit to the
will of our Maker.
Around his grave the wild flowers
are now bloomirg; in the trees nearby
the birds are singing; the sparkling
waters of the little stream go rip
pling on their way. but to him they
are voices unheard ard unheeded, for
Jesse is no more.
He sleeps beneath his native soil.
Where childhood’s happy days were
spent; f .
No more a wanderer will he be—
His troubled mind has found content.
Beyond the reach of grief and pain,
Beyord earth’s dark and stormy
billows swell,
Above life’s clouds we’ll meet again;
Brother, dear, farewell.

Death of Mrs. Laura Edetifield.
The following account of the death
of Mrs. Laura Edenfield, is taken
from The Sylvania KJa.) Telephone.
Mrs. Edenfield moved from Barnwell
County to Georgia with her husband
a number of years ago. She was a sis
ter of the late LeRoy and O. D. A.
Wilson, of Allendale:
Mrs. Laura Edenfield died Sunday
night at the home of her son-in-law,
Mr. W. A. Mallory, in Sylvania. with
whose family she had beer, making
her home for some years. She had
been suffering with a weak heart for
%ome time, but seemed to be feeling
well when she went to bed. She had
an attack during the night, however,
and though restoratives were admin
istered, she did not respond, and pass
ed away in a short time.
Mrs. Edenfield was eighty-eight
years of age, the widow of Mr. Joe
Edenfieli, |i well remembered citi
zen, and she was known and beloved
by all of our people. She abounded in
all those virtues that go to make up
the true Christian life, and there was
no time when she was not ready to go,
if it was her Master’s will. She was
one of the oldest members of Jack
s' Baptist church—for she had lived
in, that community nearly all of her
married life, ever since she and her
husband came here from South Caro
lina and settled near Buck Creek not
long after their marriage. She led a
true and devoted Christian life, and
was an example, not only for those of
her own: family, but for all others who
kn«w her as well. When the news of
her death became known it was said
by all that a good woman had gone to
her reward.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at Jackson church, be
ing conducted by Rev. H. J. Arnett
and Rev. Chas. H. Kop<p, and the body
was interred in the cemetery at that
place. A large number of friends
were present to pay their last tribute
of love to the good woman who had
gone am before.
