advice to the young graduates o
Kingstree and of Williamsburg coun
ty, because it matters little whethe
you graduate from a town or a rura
school, you have all had practically
the same training and are aiming fo
the same goal?success. In you:
ambitions to attain this great em
don't allow yourselves to be eon
sumed by the fire of selfishness
bear in mind always what you ow<
your town, your community anc
your neighbor.
From timp to limo vnn mav

and hear your ciders doing or say
ing things that have a deterrent in
ilnence upon the community, it:
-schools, or its churches. Let's
have'aj different story from yoilj
turn over the leaf in life's recorc
which your elders, many of them al
least, forgot to touch as they passec
on tlic way. Resolve that you wil
at all times and under all circum
stances do your part toward main
Gaining a clean, sanitary town, vill
age or community, morally as wel
as materially, so that there will lx
no trace of the bacteria of degener
ttio cnnt. vnti eal
j thrift. Constitute yourselves a post
graduate committe in the school of
community pride, as past masters
in the art of municipal cleanliness
* and as boosters and builders for
1 home institution* and helpers of
people.
Young man, you can furnish the
brawn! Young woman, you can
furnish the cheer! Start now
* Speak a Good Word.
i
J When the stranger enters your
I gate, speak a good word for your
town, for your neighbors, for the
( community. It is little for you to
* do, but it is rich in the fruits of
i after years. A community is judg
s ed by the words and the acts of its
people, and we of this commuinty are
j judged by others in like manner. If
? the hearts of our people are warm
ed by the fires of- "comradeship and
j brotherly love our acts will be in
j accord with our feelings, and the
world will know us as a community
4 of honor and integrity, as a people
with a soul, as a place worthy of a
future. But if we loose the flood
gates of criticism and abuse and bei
little the community and its people,
then in time we will descend to a
. level which we create for ourselves,
and the world will know us as a
people whom it is well to let alone.
Every day we are adding rungs
? to the community ladder, but are
? they going up?or down?. Speak a
good word, brother?and help your
town. ^
Grand Jury Presentment. lm
Kingstree, S C, June 22, 1915.
To his Honor, Judge T J Mauldin,
'' presiding:
e We, the Grand Jury of Williams>
burg county, do hereby beg to hand
I you this, our presentrrfent for the
June term of court of general sese
sions:
n We wish to thank your Honor for
n the kind and courteous treatment you
~ hovfl ovfon/ipH tn lis pml for Vfinr
The committee on jail report that
s they have visited the same and find
. it in good condition.
We recommend that the Grand
Jury room be provided with a small
" table for the use of the foreman be5
fore the next term of court.
We wish to thank the Solicitor for
1 the able assistance he has given us
in the various malters we have called
on him for assistance in.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

kind indulgence and aid in assisting
us in the discharge of our duties.
? We wish to report that we have
acted on all matters brought to our
y attention by the Solicitor and others,
i] with the exception of the anonymous
letter presented to us, and this we
will thoroughly investigate, though
we fail to appreciate much merit :n
r any anonymous communication,
e We have passed on twenty-two in;t
dictments and have found true bills
e in all but one. This bill we failed to
find evidence to sustain, after exam^
ining each witness provided.
We recommend that the rural poll
lice, magistrates, constables and all
11 good citizens be urged to report any
and each instance of damaging of
our public highways by plowmen in
' turning their plows in the roads.
e Great damage to our roads is thus
s caused.
e Our attention has been called to
the condition of what is known as
1 Gapway road. That same is in very
bad condition, and our Supervisor is
? requested to give it early attention,
s We recommend that the County
flemmissinnerfi nrnvide for the un
e keep of a Ford roadster for the use
of the Supervisor, the Supervisor in0
forming us that he will purchase
y one of these cars at his own expense
e if the county will pay for the up?
keep, oil and gasoline. We believe
that this arrangement will enable
him to get over his work much more
frequently and will be of great advantage
to the county.
We recommend that Magistrate
McDonald be instructed to provide
himself with another constable, to
succeed the present incumbent, it
having come to our knowledge that
the present constable says he would
not report a "blind tiger" if he I
knew where one was, and that he
does not consijJ^ that a part of his
duties. For this reason we think it
advisable that the magistrate provide
himself with a constable who
- does consider it hip duty to report
5 any and every violation of the laws.
We have appointed a committee
j to investigate the county offices and
report at the fall term of court.
Items of General Interest.
Robert Lansing has been permanently
appointed to the portfolio of j
Secretary of State to succeed W J ,

made the first payment of

Danish steamer Kina, which sailed
from Savannah, Ga, for Rotterdam.
The payment was made to A G
Hayes, representing the American
owners of the cargo. The Government's
agreement to purchase the
whole of the cargo makes one of the
heaviest purchases since the seizure
