MISS BLANCHE TISDALE WRITES INTERESTINGLY
OF HER WORK.
IN CHARKESTON
Miss Blanche Tisdale, who has
been in the employ of the federal
government at Charleston for several
months past, writes interestingly
to her relative here, Mrs Tena J
Nelson. The following are excerpts
from recent letters. The many
friends of this young lady will be
gratified to learn that she is getting
along so nicely.
Charleston, S C,
July 2, 1917.
Dearest Cousin Tena:?
You mu9t pray for your lonely little
stepchild, for I am going ta take
the oath of office and be sworn in as
a regular field clerk tomorrow. I
know thrt it is a great ri9k and Cousin
Fowler and everybody thinks me
very foolish to take the oath and
sign up. But you know very well
they can't send us to France without
any training and there are a good
many men going over out of our office
in a few weeks. The way I look
at it is this: when all the men go,
there will have to be competent clerks
at the building, and they are notgoinor
tn send us as long as men clerks
last. We also get $1200.00 a year.
Now I can't say whether we get it to
start off with, or not."
The following is from a letter written
July o:
"We have taken the oath of office,
and are now Regular Army Field
Clerks. We can be sent anywhere
they may choose to send us. But the
joke of it all is that we are going to
have to wear uniforms now. What do
you think of me dressed in a uniform?
"We were informed the other day
that we were to get a 10% raise, but
since we took the oath that seems to
have died away. A Regular Army
Field Clerk gets $100 per month, but
I don't know how long before we get
it. I hope that it won't be too long.
"Lovingly,
"Blanche Tisdale."

DECISION BY THE |
SUPREME COURT;
I
OF SPECIAL IMPORTANCE TO ALL,
SCHOOL TEACHERS, PATRONS
AND PUPILS ALIKE.
Recently the supreme court for
South Carolina in affirming the
lower court in the case of the SU.te,
respondent, vs J Ellis Gilbert, Susannah
Gilbert and others, appellants,
decided in favor of the Palmetto
State a criminal prosecution in Lee I
county which attracted a great deal
of interest throughout the country.
The sureme court thus refers to
the facts:
"The evidence in the case discloses
the fact that Miss Broadway was
principal of Liberty Hill school and
Ruby Gilbert and Lawton Gilbert
were pupils in the school. A few
days before Miss Broadway was assaulted
and beaten she suspended
Ruby from school. After this suspension,
Miss Broadway was requested
by two of the trustees of the
school to meet the father of Ruby
to adjust the matter. While on the
way to the school and the proposed
meeting as arranged by the trustees,
Miss Broadway, accompanied by her
friend and fellow teacher, Miss Ethel
Logan, was stopped on the public
road and severely beaten. This beating
was inflicted by the women of
the Gilbert family. None of the
men, according to the evidence,
actually struck her, but there is evi4-^of
all marc nraoont iltirinor
ucucc mat can ttviw pivuvuv
the assault. There is evidence that
Lawton Gilbert and Rawton Gilbert,
with their father, Ellis Gilbert, surrounded
Miss Logan, Miss Broadway's
companion, and assistant
teacher, while the female members
of the Gilbert family were assaulting
and beating Miss Broadway, and
prevented Miss Logan from interfering.
Rawton Gilbert was not a
pupil in the school, but was present
at the difficulty."
At the conclusion of the State's
testimony and at the close of all the
testimony a motion was made for a
verdict of acquittal as to Rawton Gilbert
and Lawton Gilbert upon the
ground that there was not sufficient
evidence upon which to base a conviction
as to them. The motion was
refused. After the defendants were
convicted of assault and battery of
a high and aggravated nature,motion
for new trial was made and refused.
"There is evidence," says the supreme
court in affirming the lower
court, "that the men joined the women
when they came out of the house
where the meeting was arranged for
I- ? TUnf fUnr? /*Anfnrrorl
uy Uie iruaieca. xnab mi^j v.um>.i>vu
together and after that went and did
meet Miss Broadway and her companion
and were present and saw the
severe punishment inflicted on Miss
Broadway." The court discusses the
law at length, saying that "if they
were there to carry out the unlawful
designs in pursuance of a common
design participating actually or potentially,
if necessary, then all were
guilty, the act of one was the act of
all."
"We cannot refrain," says the
court,"from calling attention to and
expressing our disapproval of the
want of manhood exhibited by the
trustee in not protecting or making
an effort to protect Miss Broadway
when she was so outrageously assaulted
and beaten."

A farmer in The Star office said
thtit he was undone by overdoing: the
thing in the way of growing perishable
products. He raised more than
he could sell on the local market and
' the balance has gone to waste irj the
field. He has come to the conclusion
' that the only possible inducement
for him to grow large crops of perishable
products is a commercial
cannery that will provide a market
for that kind of farmers. The kind
of factories that Wilmington needs
more than anything else are factories
that will make commercial products
out of the great abundance of raw
materials produced in this section.
Otherwise, our raw materials simply
go to waste.whereas factories to consume
them will make a market for
1 the raw material and make money for
1 the factories. It is quite certain, also
that factories will give employment
to the idle population of the city.?

THE SOUTH IS
DOING HER BIT
SOME OF THE THINGS THE SOUTH
IS SUPPLYING TO SAVE THE
NATION.
The South produces 98 per cent
of the entire sulphur output of the
United States, upon which our ability
to make explosives absolutely
depends.
The South produces more than one
half of the entire lumber cut of the
United States.
The South produces more than 50
per cent of the entire petroleum
output of the country, and that, too,
at a time when the government is
fearing an oil shortage almost disastrous
in its consequences to the
navy.
The South produces approximately
165.000,000 tons of coal, or 27
per cent of the total output of the
United States; and this coal to a
large extent runs the furnaces and
the steel works of the West, the v
ships of our navy, the cotton mills
and other industrial plants of New
England, and many other industries.
The South furnishes about onethird
of the lead and zinc of the
country, so essential at the present
time to national existence.
The South produces all of the cotton,
without which we could not
possibly wage war, for we could not
shelter the soldiers beneath the
South's cottonmade tents nor clothe
the nation without products made
from Southern cotton, nor make
high explosives in quantity.
The South consumes in its own
mills about one million bales of cotton
in excess of the consumption in
the rest of the country, and ships its
cotton largely to other sections to
meet their pressing needs.
The South ships to the North and
West about $100,000,000 worth of
early fruits and vegetables, and it
provides millions of boxes of oranges
and grape fruit in addition.
The South is producing most of
the manganese mined in the United
States, essential in the steel industry,
and a large proportion of the
pyrites ores which go into the manufacture
of sulphuric acid for fertilizers
and other purposes.
The South produces about $350,- <
000,000 worth of food and feedstuffs
in its cotton crop, most 01 wmcn is
shipped to the West and East.
The South produces practically all
of the bauxite, the foundation of
the vast aluminum industry of the
whole country.
But why continue to catalogue
the list when every intelligent man,
not biased by narrow views against
the South, should know these things,
and should be fair enough to recognize
that upon these facts is founded
the only possible basis for national
salvation in this time of war??Manufacturer's

Corporal Ferdon Visits His Home, .
Editor County Record:?
Allow me just a few lines to express
the pleasure which I had on a
leave of absence from my post a few
days ago to my home at Morrisville.
It was made so by the splendid treatment
at the hands of all my old
friends and many new ones. My
visit to my father, Capt Ferdon, and
mother, both of whom have arrived
at quite an advanced age but are .
hearty, I shall ever remember.
It gave me great pleasure indeed
to express my extremely grateful surprtse
at the welfare and progress of
the citizens and farmers in the vicinity
of Morrisville. Despite the ,
present difficulties, many of the people
are looking prosperous, and I
believe thanks are due to Mr F
Rhem.the man who is not only doing
a farmer's part but a merchant's as
well?one who is a credit to the community
and will, I hope, receive his
due. I say again my trip was like a
