In the town of Pisa, where stands the leaning tower, one Galileo demonstrated to an amazed world that two stones, one small, one large, fell at the same rate of speed. He also perfected, if he did not invent, the first telescope, first turned it upon the moon, first discovered the moons of Jupiter. And he first defended before the church the Copcrnican theory, that the earth was round, when all respectable citizens, including the piiests, knew perfectly well it wa3 flat! For these and other high crimes, the Catholic church punished Galileo severely, who saved his life by recanting publicly his doctrine that the earth moved. Tradition has it that, after he had done so, he muttered into his beard, "And yet it does move!" However that may be, Cardinal Maffi, of Pisa, a scientist, is behind the movement to erect in the public square of Pisa a great monument to the man all the world acclaims as one of the great thinkers ana great leaders of all time in science and clear thinking. | Galileo lived 1564-1642. This is 1922. It took Pisa in general and the church in particular quite a time to recognize that even churches err! Better late than never! Blaming the woman has been a favorite indoor sport since the days of Adam. If one cannot blame a woman under any other pretext, put the fault upon her for having a son who does something he shouldn't! Apparently so reason those doubt[ less well-intentioned but short visioned I occupants of pulpits who see in the (economic and political rise of women | from a dependent to an independent state the cause of all the ills to whieh mArlom Is heir. A well-known revivalist declares that "the next war" is to be caused by the "flapper." He adds that all wars have been caused by "the de pravity of women." A noted woman worker in social hygiene advocate" more women in politics and more :aws as a cure for vice and the activities of vicious women. A national legislator wants marriage law3 so amended that from ten days to two weeks must elapse between issuance of license and marliage, as a cure for divorce, the divorced women being one of the great evils of the country! It would be a dull world if we all thought alike. Yet one is reminded that a fundamental of the government cf what we revere aa the land of the free is tolerance; willingness to concede to the other fellow the right to his opinion, even as we hold inaliehable the right to our own. No good American has any objection to anyone thinking that flappers cause wars, that women are evil creatures, that hasty marriages undermine *!??? Am?fir>an hn-rp nr thftt vice Cfln be cured by "don't do it" laws. But ihere is great objection of evangelists, educators and legislators stating as facts which they wish to be the basis of legal action v/hat are, after all, cnly personal opinions, the truth of which it is difficult to substantiate by any evidence. One does wonder, at times, whether these reformers who decry women really had mothers, or if, like Topsy, they "just growed!" , WINTHROP COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP AND ENTRANCE EXAMINATION. ~The examination for the award of vacant Scholarships in Winthrop College and for admission of new students will be held at the County Court House on Friday, July 7, at 9 a. m.

' CHARLESTON FIRM IS APPOINTED STATE AGENT -------------G.C. BALZER Balzer, Hokny & Comar get Him Sales for the Entire State LOOKING FOR ASSISTANTS NOW Balzer, Molony & Co mar of 143 Calhoun Street, Charleston, are being congratulated by their many friends on having been appointed the General Distributors for Klim milk for the State of South Carolina. Their years of experience as Klim salesmen make them invaluable men in this new capacity. Chance to Get a Klim Agency Talking to a reporter the other day, Mr. Balzer said that his primary interest right now was to find good live men and women throughout the state who would be interested in selling Klim. Considerable headway is being made but he pointed out that there were thousands of towns and villages in the state where Klim is known to the housewives, and he wants an agent in each town. It certainly looks like a good chance for men who are looking for something good to work on, or women who would like spare time work. From what Mr. Balzer says, the work is easy and interesting, and pays well. He wants to hear from any man or woman who is interested. How' to Get Klim Now I Until the state organization of distributors is solidly under way, .V . Balzer wants it known that he is ready to ship Klim by parcel post to the numerous South (Jarolinans who are using it now. The prices which will prevail for these parcel post shipments are as follows: Klim whole milk - 1 lb., $ .70 " 2?2 lbs., 1.45 " M -5 "lbs., 2 SO Until there is. on agent in your town, send Balzer, Molony & Comar your order, together with a money order to their address given in th? first part of this artirie. _ New Organization Mean* Much ."With every little town In Sou'h Carolina having 11\!i.i distributor," Mr. Balzer went .a n> say, "much will have been accomplished tovards giving the difTerer c.vrmunlties j. steady supply of good touniry fre 'j millr _ u "According to fgu-r- recently ron piled, manycf th> farms in the state nave no cows.
