Another trouble is that demagogues erroneously believe thenrrteTves to be' demigods. V‘Man wants but little here below”— but that was before the days of fed eral relief. Wonder why the boys who won the Revolutionary War happened to over look asking for a bonus? Many motorists who are apparently trying to set up new stpeed records on South Carolina highways evidently overlook the fact that Sir Malcolm Campbell has just^atfained a speed of 276.8 miles an hour at Daytona Beach, thereby breaking his own former record of 272.40 m. p. h. Quite a Contrast. Governor Johnston was inaugurated two months ago and if he has issued a single pardon or parole in that time, we failed to see it mentioned in the papers. Quite a contrast to the clos ing weeks of the Blackwood adminis tration—and in keeping with one of his campaign pledges. On Inviting the ‘‘Kingfish.’ At a meeting of the executive com mittee of the Young Democratic Clubs of South Carolina, held' at Greenville « few days ago, resolutions were adopt- el denouncing the policies of Senator Huey P. Long and expressing disap proval of an invitation issued to him to speak in Columbia Maich 23rd. "’The resolution said that the principles advocated by the s elf-styled “King- fish” are “detrimental to the best in terests of the people of South Carolina and to the present administration.” Which is putting it quite mildly and to all of which we heartily subscribe, ff the people of the United States follow the. lead of “Hooey” we shall be in the midst of a red revolution in a very short while. His brainstorms in clude a “Share-Our-Wealth” program, which reminds us of the story about the fellow who advocated socialism. He ha<j about convinced a neighbor that the division of wealth was right and proper, when this conversation oc curred : “Pat,” said the neighbor, “do you mean that if you had a thousand dol lars you would give me half of it?” “Sure,” replied Pat. “And if you owned 500 acres of land, jrou. woul^ give me balf -of tbat ? ” — : \“Right,” said Pat. - “And if you owned 20 horses you would divide them with me?” “J would,” was the reply. “And if you had two pigs you would give me one of .them ?” “Hell, no,” said Pat. “.You know I’ve got two pigs.” worse than many of his predecessors, and when, in our humble opinion, he performs an act or sponsors a meas ure that we believe is designed for the best interest of the State, we shall be quick to commend him for it On thf other hand, we shall not hesitate to criticise any of his acts^ or measures that may be otherwise, as. In the case of his highway bill,- but thi s criticism will be friendly and constructive, rath er than malicious and destructive. Not even Governor Johnston himself could ask or expect more from the newspa pers of South Carolina. The Usual Course? That negro in Barnwell County will be electrocuted for the shameful at tack on a highly respected, old lady, and he ought to be. Suppose, however, her attacker had been ^ white man. Lawyers would be employed. Ex cuses would be renderel. Plenty of lies would be told.. If convicted finally, he would b® sentenced to a year or two and a milksop governor would give him a pardon. That is the usual course.—Calhoun Times. American Legicci Meeting. One of the best attended and most interesting meetings that the local Legion Post has ever haj was held at the Court House Tuesday evening. The meeting was (presided over by Col. Solomon Blatt and opened with prayer by the Rev. J. C. Inabinett, pastor of the local Methodist church. Department Commander J. R. Turner, Department Adjutant Felix Goude- lock, Col. Monroe Johnson, a member of the National executive committee, and Hugh Hanna, Esq., of Hampton, made interesting talks to the mem bers of the post. After a short busi ness session those in attendance were served a delightful chicken supper at the Barnwell Fruit Co.’s restaurant. A communication from the com mander of the Williston post, inviting the members of this poet to meet with them at their April 4th meeting was read an( l the invitation was accepted. A motion was then made to invite the Williston post to meet with the local post at the May meeting. Hlarkville Church Services. The Rev. L. G. Payne, pastor' 1 of the Blackville Baptist Church, .announces the following subjects for his ser mons next Sunday: 11:00 a. m.—“A Rainbow for Every Cloud.” 7:30 p. m.—“What Good Is My Life to Me?” Lee County Rural Community.

Newspaper Criticism.''' m ' i- f i A good friend of The People-Senti nel, who is also a friend and supporter «f Governor Johnston, jokingly told the writer a few days ago that we should “quit writing about his gover nor,” his reference being to our criti cism of some of the chief executive’s official acts, principally his sponsor- shkp of a bill to reduce the personnel .of the State highway department from 14 to six, appointed by the governor, with himself as chairman ex officio. He agreed, however, with our views that such a set-up would probably re- v .suit in a one-man political machine' ■md said that he thought the members should be elected by a vote of the peo ple in each Congressional District, to which we have nonobjection whatever. Goveronr Johnston admitted that his position was untenable when he had his bill amended during debate in the House to eliminate the governor as ex-officio chairman. We then pointed -out to our friend that we have also commended some, of Governor Johnston’s official acts since his induction into office, with the re sult that he finally admitted that per- haps, after all, we are not a, very ^ - "1 harsh critic of the administration. * have said before—and say again —that Governor Johnston ha 8 the op portunity of making South Carolina a * worthwhile governor, but only - will applaud all that, he or knaves condemn all that he adhrocetss.

In other words, if a family shows special aptitude towards the handling of poultry, in all probability, an egg project will be established. Further more, the growing of broilers and friers may also fit into this scheme. * Other small "mdustries of the farm will, in all likelihood, be included and added from time to time. Among the numerous specialized projects may be bee culture, flori-culture, bulb grow ing, fruit growing, sweet potato cur ing anj storage, production erf milk and cream, sqpiab“raising, the growing] of pimento peppers and other crops.
