THE BARNWELL PEOPLE-SENTINEL, BARNWELL, SOUTH CAROLINA
THURSDAY, JULY* 21ST, 1932.
President Hoover has voluntarily
cut his salary 20 per cent. The Demo
crats will remove the remaining 80
at the November elections.
Huey Long, of Louisiana, is report
ed as saying that he is sorry he went
to the United States Senate, which
makes it practically unanimous.
Here are a few headlines appearing
in Monday’s issue of a South Carolina
daily newspaper: •
“Columbia Woman Kills York Offi
cer With Own Pistol.”
“Two Meet End in Road Mishap.”
“One Negro Dead, Another May
Die.”
“Argument Ends in Fratricide.”
“Twenty-three Die in Southern Ac
cidents.”

b e in favor of it—and also the repeal,
if that would help any. '
smkh-jones wedding.
the wedding of miss mamye sue
smith to mr. jhon johnsbn jones whic!
was hell at rehober church last night
just after dark brought to a terminal
a happy court-hip which lasted 10
years.
—.ECONOMY PLANK:—Don’t fail
to get a wide, long, smoothly dressed
plank for this purpose. Fix it so’s
le Lall the names of senators and con-
....the bride is the last darter of
mrs. smith by her secont husband and
finished the 7th grade in th e flat
rock hi last June with honors, she
is an accomplished musican and al
ways plays the organ at her church,
which is rehober.
mr. jones is the only .son at home
now of mr. and mrs. jule jones who
formerly was a state constable but
lost his job onner count of accepting
a bribe for leting a load of 75 gallous

Charleston and “Buying at Home.’
We have been reading with consid
erable interest the front-page editor
ials of The News and Courier in sup
port of the “buy-at-home’’ movement,
to all of which we subscribe.. * The
People-Sentinel is in complete agree
ment with The News and Courier on
the question of buying South Carolina
products in preference to tho.<e of
other States.
We also believe that the “buy-at-
home” policy should include pioducts
mgde in the United States in prefer-
■ence to those shipped into this coun
try by foreign countries and we be
lieve that The News and Courier is in
accord with this view. This being
true, the question of a Barnwell mer
chant who wants to know why Char-
"■ leston jobbers purchase .«uch large
quantities of Get man-made goods in
preference to those made in America
is quite pertinent. Particular refer
ence is made by the Barnwell mer
chant to such articles as barbed wir?,
hoes, galvanized products, etc. •
Will our friend, Editor Ball, advise
us to just what extent his fellow
Charlestonians are indulging in this
practice and endeavor, if possible, to
persuade them to practice what he
preaches ?
the bride was led in by her daddy
who seemed verry well satisfied to
give her away, the 3 little flower
girls were sallie green and jodie
brown and mrs. king’s baby boy, jerry,
who was dressed like a little girl,
they all- carried roses and lillies of
the valley.

gressmen and their wives, and their
sons and daughters and their wives,
can be printed on same, a£ they are
the ones to help in this fight. It
might be well to print the amount of
salary each person so listed is draw
ing. The best timber to use for this
plank is the Nepotism tree of Borneo.

The Western Carolina Corporation,
organization of which has been re
cently perfected as successors to the
Real Estate and Fidelity Company, is
now issuing its 7 pr cent First Mrt-
gage Bonds .having received these
from the engravers. The bonds are
ready for distribution to purchasers,
to certain holders of debenture bonds
of the Rea] Estate and Fidelity, and to
a few creditors. The issue, totalling
$90,000", is dated July 1, ^932, and
matures in 1940, is in figures of $1,-
000, $500 and $100, and covers a first
mortgage on the Highland Park Hotel,
its grounds, furniture, fixtures, linens,
silverware and equipment of all kinds,
and on the Highland Park golf course
and club house.
T. G. TarvCr, president of the cor
poration, .-tates that the bonds are
amply secured, and this opinion is
concurred in by a laige number of
local business men, who state that the
bonds are good security. After com
pletion of this financing plan, the
company will only owe approximately
$20,000 in old debenture bonds, and
every effort, Mr. Tarver says, will
be made to liquidate these bonds as
quickly as possible. It i- planned
^within a shorj/time to publish a finan

he will icturn back home and live
with the bride’s father.)

Blanks and Blanks.
It might save a great deal of
lumber if the democrats and the re
publicans would use the same planks
in their “flatforms.” This is no time
to waste cur natural resources. AH
other kinds of resources have already
been wasted.
1 have figgered up ^ome specifi
cations for the necessary “flatfoim”
planks to be used by both parties
thi- year, as follows:
WET PLANK:—This should be
a plank about 10- feet long.^6 inches
wide, thick at both ends and thin in
the mtddte. (N. B.— The-reason 4t-
should be thin in the middle is to
keep the politicians from see-sawing
with it.) The dampness should be
confined to the north-end of the said
plank. This plank should be made
of very soft wood; so's it can be
easily straddled.
.-.FARM RELIEF PLANK:—By all
mean-, see that this plank is a very,
short one; something like by a 1 by
3 15 inches long. A,s it won’t be
worth anything to the farmers, they
can at least burn it in their, stoves
after th e election. Notches can be
cut on the edges of this, plank to
show where the governnment pegged
wheat and corn and cotton at different
times during
board.

-..-BONUS PLANK:—This should
be a maple plank not over 7 feet long.
I suggest maple because mapl c is
easily bent but hard to break, and
it can be leaned on e way during the
election years and leaned the other
way after the elections without in
jury. It should be full of knot holes
with trenches dug in both the center
and the circumference to illustrate
what it stands for, that is, if it will
rtand at all. One end of this plank
might be sawed off to show that part
of the bonus has been paid already.
Why NotT
could manage some way
—TARIFF PLANK:—White pine
would be suitable for this plank, as
white pine is flexible. It should be
rough, full of .splinters,' crooked,
green, worm holey, odoriferous, dis
colored, and very thick. It ought U
be cut in such a shape that it will
standard long lock like war club—and then oat
en t of the company which
will be prepared by a responsible ac
countant.
The management of the corporation,
at this time, i.- formally advertising
an unusual proposition for the sale
of lets in Highland Park and Sunset
Hill property. The prices of the lets
were reduced 20 per cent, last January
by formal action of the board of direc
tors, and they are now being offered,
for a limited time and in limited
amounts, for deposit* in the Bank of
Western Carolina on the usual basis
of 50 per cent, for one-half payment
and also for the bonds of the cor
poration on a dollar for dollar basis.
It is pointed out that these lots can
be acquired at a great saving by pur
chasing deposits in the bank for
cash values of 35 to 40 cent 5 on the
dollar and using them as payment on
the p'rop^ity, This? means an in
crease in the saving of the 20 per
cent, in the reduction price by the ad
dition of anywhere from 15 to 25
per cent, in the acquiring of deposit 5 .
Several lots have been sold on this
basis.
The management also has stated
that negotiation 5 are in progress with
a desirable lesse for the operation of
the_High!and Park. Hotel on a five
year basis, and it is probable that
the hotel will be operated for a .least
six months during the year. ■*' -
The management feel 5 optimistic
and encouraged over the prospects for
the company, and for the outlook' for
this county and entire section.—The

CITATION NOTICE.
A Depression Story.
Queerest of all the tales of the de
pression is this one, from Michigan:
In 1929, before the crash, a man
had a .^!80,000 loan at a bank, to
cover which he deposited stock, worth
at the market then existing, $400,000.
When the stock market went into a
tailspin the bank sold him out, get
ting $33,000 for the^tock, and leav
ing th e man with his debt paid and
a $50,000 credit in the bank.
o
Then, a little later, the bank col-
lap 5 ed. In a short time it was reor
ganized, and in the shrinkage that
was involved the man’s credit dwiiw
died to $36,000. Thereupon he drew
out $30,000—and b:ught back all the
securities he had held originally. So
now he holds the sam e stock that he
held in 1929, he has wiped out a
$280,000 losn and he has $6,000 in
cash. Has he gained cr lost in the
depression ?—Gastonia Gazennet.
