WOODROW WILSON
"DID NOT FAIL"
Laid Foundation of New Order,
Says McAdoo
"Whatever may be the ImperfSC
tiona of the treaty from a political
or economical standpoint. Wood row
Wilson did not fail." says William
U. McAdoo, former secretary of the
treasury, In a statement made at the
request of the New York ?Hobe.
"Woodrow Wilson, the man,will die,"
Mr. McAdoo says, "but Woodrow
Wilson, the apostle of peace, will live
forever." "In his m.irtyid??m there
U not defeat?there is triumph!"
"It is with hesitation that I com?
ply with your request." the former
secretary of the treasury says In
prefacng his statement of his opin?
ion of the ex-prc blent. "hccau.se
my Intimate relationship may incline
centred or prejudiced minds to vay
that 1 am not an impartial observer.
Hla retlrem"nt from the presidency
marks, however, an epoch of such
profound significance to the world
that 1 can not resist the temptation
to say a few words about one phase
of hla career.
"I do not agree with those who
hastily and Inconsiderately adjudge
the president's work at the peace
coaference a failure. Whatever nia>
Ihj the Imperfections of the treaty
from a political or economic stand?
point, Woodrow Wilson did not fail.
The outstanding thing for which he
fought, the thing that transcends po?
litical and economic considerations,
i* the permanent peace of the world.
I'nless this Is secured all else Is a
obyee; without thisj the sublimest
h)Ope of humanity Is sunk in the black
abyss; without this all political am/
economic adjustments are unstable
and sooner or later will disappear.
"Woodrow Wilson laid the founda
lona of the world peace and a new or?
der in the Versailles treaty. This Is the
supreme need of civilisation; this
Is Me greatest work. The fact that
the crowning structure has not yet
reached completion, that It has been
ha'ted by the selfishness of designing
politicians and the greed of ma?
terialistic national interests, haa
getUlef Impaired nor destroyed those
foundations. The tilca of reaction
Bill ignomlnlously exhaust them?
selves and the work of Woodrow
Wilson will emerge unscathed and
rtend like the eternal rocks as the
support of a new and better order
of which peace and Justice will be
the keystom-.
"This is Woodnw Wilson's match?
less contribution to his time. Cheat
und noble aa havo been his other
unparalleled achievements in the
fields of politics, economics and let?
ter*; this Is his enduring monument.
He has put a new star In the Ameri?
can flag?like the Star of Bethlehem,
with hs eternal message of peace,
good will and hope. No one can tear
that star from the flag. With it
America will lead the vanguard of
humanity and civilization to a new
day of human brotherhood and world
order. This will not come Immo?
lately, but it will come Inevitably in
the slow and suro processes of time.
"Woodrow Wilson, the man, Wt*l
die; but Woodrow Wilson, the apos?
tle of of peace, will live forever. Out
of his SSnrldos ami suffc-ing ?
borne with admirable dignity ami
auhlme courage?' bo good he has
?ought to do for mankind will come
to a nobts fruition and receive a
splendid though perhaps Pa'.ati d rec?
ognition. In his martyrdom there is
not defeat?there Is triumph' His?
tory will do him Justice. He can
await its verdict with seran.ty."
Japan >lak< * Many fiddles.
Washington, March 11.?Ja/.s mu?

from Japanese made fiddles. A re?
port from Consul Hawley. at Nagoya,
Japan, says a quarter of a million
dollars worth of Japanese fiddles were
bought by the United States in 1919.
this country taking the great bulk of

Three factories In Nagoya p*o
duce all the violins made In Japan.
They were founded by M: saklakl
frusukl who made his first fiddle, Con?
sul Hawley says, in 1888 using as a
model "a foreign Instrument brought
to Nagoya as a curiosity." The en?
terprise had a total product of mu?
sical Instruments In 1914 valued at
124,419, but bad spread out to three
factories employing l.ioo people In
1911 when the output reached 163! -

the t'nlted States taking 68 per cent.
The first six months of 1920 saw the
plants develop a business aggregat?

HARD TIMES
A portrait painter sat In ? French
rafi lipping his wine, His small bot
tie wai finished ami he was about to
order more when his eyes rested on a
newspaper lying near. He read the
headline "Hard Times aro Coming,"
'Hard times." he paid, "we must econ?
omize," so Instead of calling for a
fresh bottle he called for his bill.
The landlord, knowing the artist's
habits, surprised that the order for
the second bottle was not given, ap
i proached his customer and said. "Not
going so soon? Is my wine not good ?"
"Excellent." said the art Ft, "but
hard times arc coining and 1 must
Si onoinlze."
"Hard times." said the Isndloi !. and
he scratched his head, then he called
his wife. "That new silk drei you or?
dered/' he said, "you must make cot-]
ton do, The Blilsl tells mc hard turn s
are coming. We must economise
Cancel your order and buy something
cheaper."
When the landlord's wife canceled
her order she told the dressmaker
what her husband had said. "We must
prepare for hard times," she said.
"Hard times are coining; my husband
and the artirit say so."
"Hard times," said tho dressmaker,
"hard times are coming. This Is no
time to expand. Those improvements
I had Intended to make must wait."
He put on his hat and crossed the
street to the builder with whom he
had planned additions to tho show
room.
"The changes 1 planned must wait"
he mid. "Do not proceed with the
work. Hard times are coming. We
must economize. When conditions
Improve I will call you in but I can?
not invest money in the face of hard
time
When the dtessmaker left the build-'
er sat down and wrote a letter: "My
dear ai t ist friend. 1 must postpone
sitting for my picture. Wo are going
to have hard times and I think it best
to wait until things sire settled before]
Induging in :his expense. Hard times,
you know, must be regarded."
When the artist received the letter
he went to the cafe. Ho ordered a
small bottle ?.lust enough, he said, to
sooth him. Staring nt him from a
nearby chnlr was the newspaper he
had seen two days bfore. He picked
it up, scanned it more closely and
found that it was two years old.
Moral: Times are what we make
them. Lifo is a circle through
which cheerfulness or dejection flows.
The Btearn does not stop but passes
on, leaving something of what Is has
or taking what we have to give and
r< aching us again poisoned or purified
by contact with us and those we've
helped or harmed.

WHAT MAKES
IT LIGHT?
By I>v. William R. Barton.
One of the achievements of the
last few years is an exploration of
the earths atmosphere higher and
more the rough than has ever
been accomplished before. Not only
haw meg ascended to unprece?
dented altitudes, but they have sent
much higher balloons with self-reg?
istering Instruments. Ws are begin?
ning ie learn about the air*
We learned long- uro that as we
rise toward the sun we do not grow
warm but OOld; we know that the
temperature falls about om? degree
for each I'.Uu feet Of elevation for tho
tlrst Seven miles.
If we could go up about *J0O miles
we should And ourselves, not in blis?
tering heat, but In a temperature
about 4on degrees below zero.
But we have leal ned a more sur?
prising thing. It does not grow light
but grows dark. II w? could rise 30
miles, we should see the stars at
midday. In the full blaze of the sun
we should be in darkmss.
The energy of tho sun which wo
know as light and heat is not trans?
mitted SJ light and heat, an> more
than IhS electric curia tit In the wire
is perceptible M heat or light while
it is in transmission.
The light becomes light when tho
energy of the sun encounters the
friction of the coarser molecules of
the atinoaphore. The tine dust.
Which Impedes the solar energy arid
darkness the light, is the real occa?
sion of the ||ght?
This fact se. ms to me to have
helpful practical suggestion us well
as scientific vaine. perhaps if ws
knew a little more We Should discov?
er that those very qualities In life
which appear to Impede our plans
ami darken o\ur hopes are essential
to our highest welfare.

CAFTTAL NEWS
From the Capital City
Columbia, March 14.?Two import?
ant state cases aie on the ?locket for
the next term of court of common
ideas in Columbia, starting on the
28th, one the famous Sandel case, the
other the case of the state against the
Palmetto National Hank, of Columbia,
in which the state is suing for money
charged against the state, following
a recent bank failure in Greenwood.
Two checks are involved in the
bank case, each lor $?'?.000. Tlie.se
checks represented the state's portion
of Greenwood and McCormlck coun?
ty taxes, and were drawn in favor of
the slate treasurer on the Bank of
Greenwood. The che cks were de?
posited to the credit of the state with
the Palmetto hank here, by State
Treasurer Carter, The checks were I
paid by the Dank of Greenwood to]
the People's Tank of Greenwood, and 1
this institution substituted its own
checks for them, and when these
checks were presented for payment
the bank had gone into liquidation.
The failure to realize on the latter
checks by the Palmetto National
Dank was charged to the state. The
whole amount was $12,"00, and the
state is now suing to collect the
amount of this charge.
The Bande] case is that in which J.
O'Neal Bande), of Calhoun county, Is
suing the itt.ite for $100,000, because
of the death in 1915, of his two daugh?
ters, $a0,uoo for each, their deaths
having followed the administering of
typhoid antitoxin secured from the
state board of health.
Both these cast 0 were tried last
year and the state won. tin appeal
to the supreme court new trials were
ordered, on error in tho ( barge of the
trial judge to the jury. The supreme
court does not pass upon the merits of
case of this nature on appeal. The
case is set for the Urst day of the I
court.
Columbia, March 14.?Four liun
dr? d young people, from all parts or
the state are expected to .attend tho
state Christian Bndeavor convention,
lo be held in Columbia April S,

will be featured by a dozen promi?
nent religious leaders of the south, in?

lowship supper at Chlcora College
will be among the social features or
the convention. A half dozen denom?

Columbia, March 14.?Plans for tho
reorganization of the state highway i
department, following appropriation
cuts made by the recent legislature,
wane announced by chief Bnglneer
Mooretield today. The department
Will reduce the number of divis?
ions in Its engineering forces through?
out the state from four to two, and
the number of engineers and drafts?
men connected with the department
will he reduced, effective April 1.
Heretofore the stat" highway de?
partment has had four division en?
gineers' offices, one in Laurens, one in
Florence, one in Charleston und one
in Columbia. After April I, there
will be only two divisions, and both
will have their headquarters In the
state highway offices in Columbia. One
division will be for the western part
Of the statt1, and 1>. M. Weisiger, at
present engineer for the first district,
with office in Laurens, will be in
charge, If.. T. Brown, now chief of
surveys for tho state department, will
be division engineer for the eastern
division.
The force of draftsmen In tho high?
way offices will be reduced from is
to 6, ihis change also being efTectlvo
April I.
Thepc reductions mean that the
highway department will not bo aide
to give more than limited aid to the
counties in the construction of neu
loads. The department for the year
ahead will be enabled to do little
more th in carry OUt the work al?
ready under way and maintain tho
roads already adopted Into the state
I maintenance system. Practically all
the new highway construction of the
year will have to bo done by th"
counties alone. Offltilals of the de?
partment, especially Chief Engineer
ChaS, H. Mooiefleld, express the hope
that the limited operations will bo
only temporary and that tho depart?
ment will soon be hack where it can
resume construction of new roads.
Tin- appropriation made i.y the leg?
islature this >ear for the engineering
branch of the highway department
was cut from $80,000, the la^t year
appropriation, to $60,000 for tins
year. At the same time the work of
the department has greatly Increased
in the past year, due to extensive
highway operations in many parts of
the state.

Thought in Action.
How many times have you faced
the ho t that some one else has made
use of "your" idea?
In Other word", how many times
has the other fellow "heat you to
it?"
If you are an advertising man it
is probable that you have found in
the newspapers an idea fully work?

more than a mental toy.
It is useful, worthy, and profitable
only when it is a visible fj^gt.
