FLOUR MILL Now Grindifig each cus tomer’s turn for toll. jWoodgreen Mgy < Greenwood, S. C. COLUMBIA, June 8.—In answer to requests that . lie issue a ruling vM the m&fcter, Jphn M. Daniel, stat^ attorney 'general, has, given an opinion*that it was the intention of the legislature that state institu tions of higher learning'continue to award scholarships!" y It is my opinion,” the attorney neral said, ‘.‘that the state bi nds to allow scholarships to con- ue to be awarded.” TJie question as to whether the institutions had legal authority to grant the scholarships came about in interpreting a recent law abol- shing free tuition. The state schol arships, awarded by Clemson, Uni versity of South Carolina, Winthrop md The Citadel pay a specified stipend and in addition exempt th^ holders of tuition charges. Free tuition was ‘‘abolished” but the fee was raised from $40 to $63 per nine- month term by the last general as sembly. It was estimated that _ approxi mately 2,000 students in the insti- tutiohs were granted exemptions from tuition payments the year now ending. The attorney general’s opinion was given out following a confer ence among himself, Jame£ H. Hope, state superintendent of edu cation; Frank C. Robinson of the tax commission. # The opinion in answer to a letter of inquiry follows: Replying to your letter* of June 3, I beg to advise that as I interpret Section 71 of the general appropri- athm act of the 1933 session of the general assembly, the intention of the legislature was to abolish free tuition, which is arranged for an nually and carries with it no obli- tion beyond the session for which it was granted. The section orig inally, as cr.rried in the free confer enec report, contained a final pro viso, cutting out all scholarships but "he* senate struck this out as new. iLir.ttor and this - indicates : that it tvas not agreeable for scholarships which had been wen by competitive examination^ ar.i v/hich we*fe in the nature of contracts between the holders and the state to be abolish ed and it is my opinion that these scholarships though they may also carry provision for free tuition were* not intended to be affected. I think there is a plain line of demarcation between a year’s grant of free tui tion and a scholarship under which a person entered college believing that arrangements had been made for all the years leading to and in cluding graduation. , , " The law provides that a person holding a scholarship may forfeit same by failing to do a satisfactory class of work or by improper con duct but unless the student fails in these particulars named. In the statute it is my opinion that the state intends to allow scholarships to continue to be awarded.” :—txt Half Road Ready For Surfacing Abbeville Press and Banner, June 8. With one-half of the Abbeville- McCormick road now ready for surfacing and the remaining dis tance to be in shape in three or four weeks, bituminous surfacing of the approximately 20-mile stretch is expected to begin with in the near future, it was learned today at the state highway office here. • According to Mr. R. V. Royall, resident highway engineer, the road project will likely be com pleted by August 1. Mr. Royall stated today that topsoiling of the road, which has been in progress for some six months, was completed ten days ago and that the Abbeville end of the project is now in condition to be surfaced. Bituminous treatment will get underway, Mr. Royall said, just as soon as C. G. Fuller, Barnwell sub contractor of the project, is in a position to begin. Mr. Fuller has contracts for about two-thirds of the state paving work and is now engaged in work in the lower part of the state. Two miles of bitumin ous surfacing can be laid in a day when work starts. The preparatory work now al most completed, has put the Abbe- ville-McCormick road in excellent condition and when the project has been completed the route should prove of benefit to a large number of motorists traveling between Au- g :sta and points in South Caro lina. •• * ..;!f is^main^ contrac tor of the road development. .

Just bought one more bottle today and expect to lose 18 more pounds. I now weigh 148 and feel fine.” Mrs. Harry Robinson, Akron, Ohio (Jan. 6, 1933), Once a day take Knischen Salts —one half teaspoonful in a glass of hot water first thing every morn ing. Besides losing ugly fat SAFE LY you’ll gain in health and physi cal attractiveness — constipation, gas and acidity will cease to bother —you’ll feel younger—more active —full of ambition—clear skin— sparkling eyes. A jar that lasts 4 weeks costs but a trifle at any drugstore in the world—but demand and get Krus- 2hen and if one bottle doesn’t joy fully please you—money back. —Adv. '-.v LICENSES MUST BE BOUGHT BEFORE JULY 1 The State, June 13.- - Application blanks which are to be used by South Carolina motor vehicle owners in acquiring their new drivers’ licenses were mailed, out during the we?k end r to aH au tomobile owners in the state, Ber. M. Sawyer, chief ccmmissioner fc the highway - department,, fgaid yes terday. The licenses now expiring were issued in 1930... All automobile operators, -are re quired by law to have their new li censes by July 1. The card type of license costs 50 cents and the metal plates, suitable for carrying in key containers, 60 cents. Each license is issued for four years, 1933-37, which means that no renewals will be re quired of operators during that pe riod. W. V. Sutherland, director of the motor vehicle division, said that the department expects to issue not less than 200,000 licenses. Each motor vehicle owner was mailed three blanks so that additional licenses- might be issued in families where more than one is desired. “It is requested that the forms be completed and returned to the mo tor vehicle division, state highway department, Columbia, immediate ly, since every operator of a motor vehicle must have in his or her possession a new driver’s license July 1, 1933. If additional forms are needed, notify the department at once,” Mr. Sutherland wrote ve hicle owners. It was pointed out that operators who had held licenses before would not be required to take examina tions in order to get renewals. Any one who has not held licenses be fore must go through the usual ex amination or test. New applicants, it was explained, must demonstrate their ability to operate a motor vehiejj^ must know the various meanings of road signs, must have normal eyesight and prove that they are not physically incapacitated in any manner that would hinder them from driving safely. “Drivers must keep in mind the safety to others as well as to themselves,” officials said. • The sad news of the death of Dr. Adams came as a shock to his friends in this section. Some bare ly got the news in time to attend the funeral at Antioch, the churcfc of Dr. Adams’ early childhood. Dr. Adams was well known in this section, was a resident of Plum Branch for many years, and a busy physician. He made his rounds in his buggy or on horseback before the days of automobiles. After he bought a car his practice was larg er and more easily made. In his practice his faithful wife was al ways at his side to help him and suffering humanity all she could, and always gladly divided anything she had with her husband’s pati ents. The minister spoke of Dr. Adams’ love for folks and flowers. I know, too, that he loved thsm. He also loved fine horses and dogs. The funeral was conducted by the pastor of Fountain Inn'‘Baptist church who spoke of Dr. Adams in the highest terms as a physician and Christian! Said' he joined their church soon - after moving there about a year ago*and although a very busy physiciany he found'time to attend the church service and lias missed only four times in a year. That shou’d put some less Christians to shame. , ! ‘ ‘ The minister spoke of Dr. Adame* jovial disposition. " # For many years Dr. Adams was our family physician and many times has he relieved suffering and brought cheer into oUr home. Mrs. Adams often accompanied him, and even now, though they have been away for a number of years, I con sider Mrs. Adams one of my truest friends. She is a very sincere per son, and once her f riendship is won, it lasts. It seems to us it was an untimely death, but his life work was done. When God sees fit to call His chil dren home no human agency can stay the grim reaper. I often think our physicians are not appreciated as they should be, most especially those who travel far into the local communities where as a rule the roads are bad. They go day or night in all kinds of weather and often gef little or nothing for their work. The faithful physicians are like the work of this world. A few pay them, and a few do God’s work but great is going to be the, reward of those few. Dr. Adams married Miss Maud*: Getzen of Florida some 25 years or more ago. His mother and father preceded him to the grave within three weeks of each other, about two years ago. A sister died many years ago. He leaves no children to mourn, but his faithful wife bears the burden alone. Her Lord whom she loves will comfort her, and the love of devoted friends will help sustain her in her great grief. The attendance of sorrowing friends was large. Many from ail the surrounding country and towns came to pay a last tribute of res pect to Dr. Adams and his grief- stricken widow. The floral offerings were beauti ful and many, but surely there can bo nothing so sweet or beautiful as the -voice of Jesus when He says to Me be- HOT SCHOOL DISHES Citizen’s Military Training Camps /Will Be Held Instructions have just been re ceived at Headquarters Fourth Corps Area that Citizen's Military Training Camps will be held for Red, White, and Blue Trainees on ly.

And what’s, more the food has been the best, that could be prepared from a nu tritive and health standpoint. Miss Hazel McKibben, home eco nomics teacher, is the major domo of the unique enterprise.. The? school grounds are large enough to permit the use of a half acre for a garden. A year ago the plot was: planted by the pupils in home eco nomics with crops which would: mature on or after September 1,. Which was the opening date fdr the fall term. The janitor cared' for the garden after the spring term closed. / When school opened in the' fail the home economics pupils gather ed the crops as they matured and canned them as a part of their class work. Some of the roofc vegetables were canned and others placed in a. storage fitted up in the basement. The vegetables thus put away we^ used as the basis for the school lunches. Besides there was sup plied a vegetable/soiqn and a milk dessert, or a vegetables dish and cocoa,, or two similar’ dishes. This was for variety. The foods lack ing in the stored supply were ob tained by bartering for them with children who were willing to take the hot dishes in trade. About one-rhalf the children pay cash for their food. The others bring'food to eat and barter for some of the hqt fpod. Sounds like ,9. miracle,, but fit just shows what can be done. tXT ‘ • 0 Bu Patricia Dow ° »>»>»*—<«««< All field men for the highway de- „ . . partment are on their interaries. s s ] lf ^ erir J g sou ’ . „ T They will be at various localities ? nd * wiU * ive r L^e 1 . lias given help and relief to the suf- expiain- fering and he must have gi vcn raany cups of cold water In the Yesterday was the first day on l iter’s name, which licenses were on sale.
