I LOOKING TOWARD 1940 Pageant Progresses m V X Everybody who has made even a superficial study of political history knows that it is not' the personality of the candidate which determines Presidential elections, but the issues and principles for which he and his party stand. It la true that the orator whose voice can star the emotions often seems to have an advantage over his opponent with a less persuasive plat form or radio presence; but Presiden tial issues are not decided by such personal differences. Mr. Lincoln was one of the lesat attractove public speakers of his time and those who believed that the voters of the nation would be swayed by mellifluous words rather than by principles did not concede him a chance for election in 1860. And in more recent times, there had never been such an orator as William Jen nings Bryan, none could stir crowds to such a frenzy of emotional en thusiasm as he. But Mr. Bryan fail ed in each of his attempts to win the Presidential election. Those suggestions are dropped for the consideration of people who are beginning to think about Presiden tial election of 1940, as everybody is who is interested in politics—and that includes almost every American citizen. It will make little difference what particular individual is nominated by either of the great parties. The result will be determined by other considerations than that. The standards of character of the men who have become Presidential candidates of the great parties have been uniformly high. No man can climb so high on the political ladder without having had every phase of hie character subjected to the most intensive scrutiny. REST The long bitter winter has past and spring is here. Nature has made the trees burst into leaves, the flow ers to bloom and the green soft grass invites one to rest. And let me say that rest is not idleness. To lie on the grass, under the trees, or near a babbling brook, lis tening to the ceaseless, soul-quieting murmur 0 f the rushing waters, and gaze up at the fluffy clouds as they drift across that inverted bowl we call the sky, is better than all the medicine in the drug store and will do one more good than can be mea sured in any terms. There is nothing better for the soul and body of man than to put the cares of life aside for a time and to let the mind lay down its burdens. Some well versed authorities at tribute the long life and robust con stitutions of primitive peoples to the fact that they Hve in the open, breathe fresh air, exercise daily, keep close to nature and spend much of their time in complete relaxation. I recall meeting in Russia an old physician who told me that he at tributed the heartmeas and longevity of the peasants to the fact that they spent much time in resting and while doing so never talked, but re mained absolutely quiet. In the sum mer they reclined beneath tree.i upon the grass in the shade and in winter upon large (platforms built over their ovens, all talking at these rest periods being rigorously flor- bidden. Most of us instinctively fear old age and make desperate efforts to prevent its approach, when the right thing to do is to accept with a smile the inevitable—for there are no drugs that can prevent the oncoming years from taking their toll. But the average individual can do much to grow old and still preserve the much desired youthful looks for ten or twenty years longer. One does not have to grow old at fifty, especially if he has led a sane life during the preceding years. Too much food, too much stimula tion, too much exercise and too little fresh air, too little sunshine, hasten the coming of old age. If you live as much as possible in the open, eat good food, well' chewed, cooperate with nature, do not drink alcohol, tea, or coffee to excess, avoid other The shaping-up and training of sections of the big cast to take part in the “Calvacade of Progress” pa geant is well under way. The pageant, biggest feature of the ses- qui-centennial celebration will be given at the college stadium on May 1st, 3rd, and 4fth. Rehearsals are be ing held almost daily with some of the groups and everything is shap ing up nicely, according to Director McDowell. A partial list of those who will be seen in the pageant follows.

Do not brood. Worry adds to ones years rapidly. Abraham Lincoln, who was unquestionably confronted with grave problems during his years in the White House, and was burden ed with a nation’s sorrows, always smiled and had a story for everyone which would bring a laugh. President Roosevelt, who at 39 years of age lost the use of both lees through infantile paralysis, for got uis troubles, sought and found other interests and is remarkable, despite his official cares, because of his cheery smile. Push worry aside and you actually add to the length of your day* and incidently make your life more worth while. WHITMAN-SMITH Miss Ludie Margaret Whitman and Mr. Curtis Pet Smith were mar ried on April 16, 1939 at the resi dence of the officiating minister, the Rev. J. B. Harman, in the presence of several relatives and friends. Mrs. Smith is the youngest daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Whit man of the St. Lukes church com munity near Prosperity, and is a graduate of the Stoney Hill high school of the class of 1938. Mr. Smith is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Linzy D. Smith of Newberry, R. F. D. No. 4, and is a graduate of the Batesburg-Leesville high school of the class of 1935. They will make their home in Charleston. Their many friendls extend con gratulations and best wishes. Spectator COMMENTS Vice-president Gamer seems to be in the lead for the Democratic nom ination for the presidency. South Carolina will probably not be strong ly New Deal, judging by the State Democratic Convention of 1938. Poli ticians may not know it, but the New Deal tie-up with negroes and Catho lics, and its lukewarmness to the farmer as compared with its exuber ant enthusiasm for the WPA and various other pet extravagances, will not make the New Deal platform strong one to stand on next year. BUM FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1939 Even hard-t jaded successful farmers, when electee to the Legislature, fall under the s >ell of Columbia and plunge the $tate riotously in debt as the most pkodigal of the Golden Spenders. ^ The problem is to carry the homely virtues and! commensense from the farms and Small towns to the Legis lature. So Congress grants a hundred million more for WPA and thinks it has saved the country fifty millions! think the hundred million of new money was every cent of it too much. The Congressmen in Washington are too timid to put up a real fight. Sen ator Smith deserves recognition for telling the Senators that the whole thing is a vote-getting affair. I had Ijbped Governor Maybank would say to the Legislature and people something like this: Gentle men, I don’t know all the details «I each public service; I don’t know where you can trim with the least friction, but I know one thing clearly, and it stands out like a sore thumb, a we are spending about forty-nine million dollars, and that is too much. Cut where you please, but reduce this enormous total. Is the liquor revenue of any real benefit? When the question of li quor revenue was under consideration so much was expected that I had a sort of sneaking notion that all taxes would be wiped off and that the sheriffs would pay a cash divi dend to each citizen. Well, well; haven’t seen my dividend yet. In fact, instead of relief, we are spend ing more and more, all liquor revenue notwithstanding. To men with faith in righteousness the question is: “Is It right to sell liquor?” If not, then the State should not dignify it or degrade it self by legalizing a bad thing. Now, then, even if revenue should accrue from the sale of liquors will it finally be helpful? Just consider our State: All the liquor money has not brought relief- Of course there is the so-called prac tical man who says a dollar is < t dollar regardless of the source. But the Apostle Paul says wHh a larger spiritual horizon: “Let not your faith stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” Yea, verily, (The greatest event in the history of mankind was EASTER. It lifted the veil and revealed the new path after ibis road is blocked. The great worry of all the ages was that of dissolution. The dark and gloomy grave fills us with horror. Then came the Son of God, lighting the way to immortality. All our faith, all our hope, rest on the resurrection of Jesus. “Why should it be a thing incredi ble with you that God should raise the dead?” asks Paul. If God he the source of life, the rekindling of that spark or the transfer of the vital current is no problem for Him. If we deny this we challenge the power of God; and if we doubt that we reject the very idea of a God. A few days ago I looked out upon the stark, naked trees. How dead they seemed! Nature stripped them for the cold winter; but now the trees are revived and clothed again, redolent of spring, but somewhat ty pifying the new life and new body, the celestial body, assured us by the resurrection of the Savior. If you live long enough you will learn many things. All my life have fought shy of calomel, quinine —and all such, but recently a man came to see me about my pecan trees Guess what he proposed? Well, if he had recommended cottonseed meal could have followed his reasoning; if he had indicated a need for appli cations of potash or acid—well, as a farmer I could have grasped that. In fact, if he had told me of the vir tues of nitrate of soda or sulphate of amonia—all well and good. But say, what do you suppose this man want ed to put into or around or about my nut trees? Calomel and quinine! expected him every minute to call the drug store for a little ipecac or even nux vomica. I held a box of aspirin tablets so as to revive the trees if they should develop a headache and I kept a bottle of ammonia near at hand for a swoon on the part of the trees. I hope the tree doctor doesn’t re quire me to give a cold “dope” to each tree every day during the warm weather. Is there any danger, I wonder, of trees requiring hamburgers, hot dogs or ham sandwiches? • • * A momument should ie^erected to Representative L. W.' *Busbee. He had the bravery to stand up in the House and declarge himself in favor of reducing the expenditures of the State. So far the House has seem ed to be under a spell. Mr. Busbee, like Horatius at the bridge, stood against the rush of the foe. Specta tor will gladly ebon tribute a dollar toward the fund for the monument of unexampled heroism. Strength to him! May his tribe increase! Income tax f 893,000 Corporation license fees 430,000 Beer and Wine permits .. 30,000 Beer and wine tax 525,000 Liquor tax 1,175,000 Vocational education funds 100,000 Additional appropriation needed for State 4,460,102 So you would do something to this bill? Why do you think we have all those beautiful teachers coming (7,000 ladifes) to Columbia for noth ing? Well, when you boil it all down you are face to face with the ines capable conclusion: Our State is a camp of partisans. One is for Clemson, though the farmers them selves be sunk in debt; another is for the public schools, frills and foolishness and everything else tho a certain place freezes into blocks of solid ice; yet another is for the University or The Citadel at what ever cost. Few, mighty few, are re solutely, vigorously and resource fully working for you and me. Our institutions have swallowed us. We are becoming Highway and Anti-Highway partisans. It cannot be denied that the Highway Depart ment has become over-zealous for great projects. Some of the pro jects are soundly conceived as public enterprises but we would be wiser to spend money where it is most needed instead of on grandiose un dertakings. The present political ac tivity, on behalf of the Highway De partment may result in victory, but in disastrous victory like winning lawsuit. I admit that ethically and logi cally the Highway money should be devoted to the roads exclusively, but I am compelled to admit that money is not always used wisely. While hundreds and thousands of men are paying—and have paid for years—a high gasoline tax they are still in the mud. Yet all sorts of roads have been straightened; and this, that and the other have been done that did not help that man who drives over dirt roads. Moreover, I don’t see anything for him until all the splendid avenues and boulevards shall have adorned the approaches to the cities. REVIEW of NEW BOOKS PAUL B. CLARK, PH. D. 1735 Woodburn Ave. Covington, Ky. N. A. Coward, editor of the Bel ton Times, left us recently for the life everlasting. I first knew Mr. Coward when he came to Columbia as a member of the famous Economy House. He was a serious-minded, purposeful man, one whom 1 esteemed and cherished as a friend. The same day of the passing of my brother Coward I lost two other friends, one In the city of Anderson and the other in the town of Man ning. My old friend of long ago, Godfrey H. Geiger, affectionately re membered as “Chancellor Geiger,” one of the brothers whom I have long valued as friends, even from the time when the memory of man run neth not to the contrary, as the lawyers say. The Chancellor was a fine man, as steady as a clock, steadfast, immov able, yet with a dry wit that was captivating. The third friend was my neighbor, Joseph E. Davis, a genial, likable spirit, friendly with everybody, neigh borly, warm-hearted. What’s wrong with our state gov ernment? The answer is: “DEAM- ERS!!” At bottom our greatest difficulty is to find men who recognize in private buiness that 2 plus 2 equal 4 but who in legislature either forget to add or how to add. The State is com mitted to every scheme which some dreamers muse over in their som nolent hours. When they wake they mistake their dreams for visions and regard themselves as crusaders of righteousness. In private life we have gumption enough to recognize that we cannot do all the good things that may occur to ns; we know that we cannot buy Packard cars with Ford incomes; we cannot buy $100 suits of clothes with $15 incomes; we are even wise enough in private life to know that if we have a Ford income we can’t af ford a Cadillac 16 cylinder limousine even if we could get it by matching for it 50-60. But in public life our people don’t recognize these facts. We act as though the State were en tirely apart from the taxpayers. What’s wrong with our State finances? It is all as clear as day; we are spending more than our in come. What, then, is the remedy? We should spend less. That’s the whole thing in a nut shell. No great genius ie necessary to correct our trouble. A little common sense would take care of the diffi- cutly. Aye, there’s the rub! That common sense is the rarest of all senses. Can the State reduce its expendi tures? It should be as easy as fall ing off a log; but is R? Well, no, To tell the truth it is very, very dif ficult. Let us see how difficult it is. Would you reduce the University? Years ago it turned out its greatest men when it received Only twenty- five or thirty thousand dollars a year. Now it requests for the next fiscal year $568,580. It has grown enormously. I am not attacking it. But if you propose a cut there you will have us alumni all over you for we be numerous and all around the State. Woodman, spare that tree! Then if you think of touching the Citadel—well, every man who ever went there will draw his sword and advance upon you. The Citadel now wants $187,777.79 and General Sum- meral will show exactly how the last ounce of gunpowder was used. And if it be Clemson! Well, now there’s the greatest pilitical tie-up in the State. While genial and lovable Dr. Sikes give* everybody the glad hand on the hill Clemson has her men as County Agents and Assistant County Agents and assistants to the assist ants and as triple A men and helpers to the triple A men, both in Columbia and every county seat. Nay, my brother; don’t bother Clemson. It started out as a school for the far mers’ boys; then it branched out to teach the farmers’ boys’ fathers how to produce more, but now it is over whelmingly dedicated to the effort to show him how to curtail—but you mustn’t annoy Clemson. They asked for $201,(111 for collegiate work and $410,479.36 for “public service acti vities”. Well, perhaps you as a leg islator would take Winthrop in hand, eh? Well, if you lay an impious hand on that cherished institution ten thousand women, nine thousand hus bands, nine thousand fathers-in-law, thirty thousand school trustees—and other thousands, too, will ask the reason why. So what? Would you reduce the school bill ? The amount requested is $5,455,238 23—but that is not all. Nay, nay. The total amount from the State is nearly eight millions. And the authorities estimate that the schools will spend during the present fiscal year, $9,606,891.33. Of course that doesn’t include heavy special district taxes nor certain general county-wide taxes. Do you know where this money comes from? Well here’s the esti mated school revenue from the State for next year: All this is over and above district taxes: TESTAMENT OF FAITH. By P. S. Hop wood. Macmillan Co. New York City. Pages xii-215. Price $2.00. A fine book by a noted English thinker, a graduate of London, Ox ford and Glasgow, minister of the Oak Street Congregational church, Accrington, England, and author of ‘The Religious , Experience of the Primitive Church.” This splendid book is a valuable asset to the series to which it belongs, GREAT ISSUES OF LIFE, edited by Rufus M. Jones who wrote the introduction for this volume and whose name alone car ries weight for all who know him or read after him. The recital of the chapter headings of this book is not as forceful a way to show the power of the book as is usually the case. Dr. Hopwood is interested in ground ing his testament of faith in meta physics, not in reciting texts, telling anecdotes and jumping to conclu sions. He points out clearly the failure of the materialistic view of the universe, page 20, how the mind and experience go together, even re ligious experience it may have—ra tional, aesthetic, moral and religious. Kant made the religious experience link on to the moral, practically out of the moral; Hopwood makes it an additional experience in its own right in revealing the nature of reality, page 82. This book is as fine an insight on metaphysics as we have seen in many a day; it is oppo site to humanism. Science and the scientific theory are useful but they do not go far enough; they are limit ed and yet they use faith in a fine way so far as they can. The point of the whole book seems to be this: Faith carries within itself its own at testation, in the four major realms of human experience at least. Boil it down: the thing to do is to put every dollar in one appropria tion bill—and cut the whole -tiling fifteen per cent! As to Welfare—let the maximum be one million dollars, with fifty thousand dollars for administration. Prune and purge the present list and stop sending people into every nook and comer to to hunt up “clients” for relief. cn/nd HO hj S.DcKpu REGARDING COTTON ALLOTMENTS Acting County Agent J. L. King has just received from Washington through Mr. R. W. Hamilton, State Administrative Officer, the following telegram: “Notify all county officers immed iately that 1939 Conservation Pro gram amended by omitting the pro vision for computing payment on 125 per cent of planted acreage where less than 80 per cent of cotton, wheat, rice, vegetable, or potato allotments planted and failure to plant not due to food or drought. Payment will be computed on basis of allotment ir respective of acreage planted for harvest in 1939 if it is determined that normal farming operations are carried out." Mr. King points out that tb- tele gram must not be interpreted to mean that payment will be made to farms where the acreage allotments is exceeded. Previous regulations will govern payments to farms over planting acreage allotments. In short, states Mr. King, the Washing ton message should be interpreted to mean that it will no longer be nec essary to plant 80 per cent of the cotton acreage allotment in order to receive 106 per cent payment. If a farm has received a cotton acreage allotment and no cotton is planted on the farm, payment will be made pro vided the farm is not classified as an idle or abandoned farm. Author of Sister Miry's Kitche After mature thought I am forced to 'the conclusion that .we are all crazy. Perhaps the war caused it. is, What a nice man Uncle Sam really. A few years ago he was shylock, a skinflint—and all that, hypocrite, too, he was. Now the old boy is all right. Well, well. How nice it would be foij England and France to make some friendly little gesture about paying some of that money they borrowed and reneged about, eh? Morally wrong, dangerously wrong are Germany and Japan and Italy. But old shylock needn’t throw away any more of his money or precious lives. Unless or until we are our selves hurt we have nothing to do with Europe. IThe proposed new and increased taxes have one merit: they do not impose additional property taxes, or a general sales tax on ordinary household groceries. If the Finance Committee of the Senate had a man date to suggest new sources of re venue it has avoided several pitfalls but if the Legislature should adopt the proposals it would commit our State to more than four million dol lars of new spending, while taking care of a million and a half of cur rent deficit. We probably have become benumb ed or callous about rising expendi tures. The Idea of doing every good thing in a day has become so popu lar that the cost is not regarded as a deterrent. We simply must have all these newfangled things and we must do all that has become popular. At bottom the spending habit has swollen like a dropsical man because the big taxpayers are in the minority and the rest of us are being stung to death without knowing what its all about. This new five millions means that our State commits itself to a pro gram of fity-five million dollars for the next fiscal year. We must not delude ourselves into believing that an appropriation bill for fifteen millions represents what the State is spending. We are now spending about forty-nine millions and now we are to add five and a half millions to that. Every effort to put all ex penditures in one bill has been resist ed. Why? Why should the Legisla ture hide from us what it is spend ing? , Some of the suggested taxes do not bear on important business; others are open to objection. State, County, and municipal taxes in South Carolina will total nearly a hundred million dollars!! WANTED—Fat cows and veals. FOR SALE—fresh hog lard, country hams, and middling meat.

C. 10-#tp When our men-folk work in the garden they can wear any old clothes and get away with it on the plea of comfort, but it’s quite a dif ferent story when we women want to do a bit of gardening. Even the woman with the hoe must keep up appearances. Despite the bending and stooping and digging and weed ing a woman must do in the garden she must always look charming and attractive. Therefore consider your gardening togs and accessories just as seriously as you do your house dresses. Study low-heeled shoes, heavy gloves, broad- brimmed hat and a dress that gives plenty of freedom will keep you com fortable and presentable. Don’t for get to invest in a kneeling pad of some dampproof material to protect your knees when weeding and trans planting. • • • Large meshed chicken wire can be used to fit any size and shape flower holder. The large mesh wire is more flexible and easily handled than a wire of smaller mesh. You may need to make a small, loose ball of the wire for the center of a particularly large bowl and cover the entire top with wire, too. So if you have a supply of chicken wire on hand you needn’t hesitate to use unusual and odd-shaped bowls for flowers. • • • House work and gardening both are enemies of spotless nails. Dust ing, dish-washing, and weeding dry out the natural oil in you nails and make them dry and brittle. Try using manicure preparations containing oil and rub your nails with olive oil every night before go ing to bed. When you work any ointment around the cuticle work from the center of the nail base out and up toward the nail tip, follow ing the direction of thfe nail. Work ing in the opposite direction is “against the grain” and tends to form hangnails. • • • Shoes and bags of alligator and lizard-skin are smarter than ever this spring. You can keep them looking like new if you go over them with vaseline to which a few drops of glycerine have been added. Then wipe with dry .clean cloth. • • • Roses are greedy things, you know, so don’t neglect to feed them the first thing when you can work the ground. Use well-rotted manure or some well balanced garden ferti lizer. Cultivate it well into the ground around the bushes.
