This does not mean ^ that the name of the writer will be j . given to the public, but it protects the paper from impositions for the I ... - - v ecmor 10 Know wno is the author of ~ the communication. We must know * who writes, or we cannot allow the ^ communication to pro in. J 0 "Woe to them that devise iniquity, ^ r and work evil upon their beds! When the morning is light, they practice ^ it, because it is in the power of their hands. And they covet fields, and f take them by violence; and houses, * and take them away, so they oppress a man and his house, even a ^ man and his heritage." Therefore, t thus saith the Lord: "Behold against i1 this family do I desire an evil, from which ye shall not remove vour necks. ' a neither .shall ye *ro haughtily; for jthis time is evil." O t April 1, 2, and 3rd are to be "red '' letter days" in the town of Union. Perhaps we should say "white letter" jdays, for on those three days the city \ authorities will make strenuous effort h L. to put the town in the cleanest physical condition possible. The Board o{ | Health as well as the city author!- a ties are behind the movement, and c all citizens have been notified by a circular letter of the purpose of the ' All ' ' ? * * * * ^ uiuvcin. /\ii are asKea to neip tnis j movement in every way possible. ( Let's have a general house-clean- a ing. "Swat the fly," "swat the mos- t quito," "To the garbage cart with all 0 trash," these and many other slogans should be in use. j Health Officer T. B. Strange asks s the co-operation of all the people in his commendable effort to clean up the city. Will you not do your part? a o h r Much has been written recently r about the vice crusade. And more will I yet be written, for it is a vital sub- \ ject. The investigation as to the re lation of vice among young women and girls and low wages, with es- 2 pecial application to large establish- s ments in great cities, was carried on g extensively. In a number of states \ there is a movement to enact laws I upon the question of wages, eight dollars a week being thought by many I n who have studied the question, to be , the minimum that should be paid. * U1 of which is good as far as it :oes. But the cure lies deeper than hat. There must be an annihilation if the double standard. When soiety demands of its men the same potless purity it demands.of its wonen, the problem will be solved. There is no basis in reason, justice >r divine law, that allows less exacion of the man than of the woman. The was one pathetic note sounded igain and again as some poor fallen ind pitiful girl gave expression to he idea that the shop girl in our ities is marked as prey by designrwr ' > ' * " - -h wnt: K 111 M*iu AU me vorking girl asks is to be let alone; t is not more wages that will help, ?ut just to be allowed to work without having forever to be marked as he prey of designing men." Many rave expression to the thought that o protect the defenseless and unproected working girl there would have o be an improvement wrought in the nen. It comes right back to where ve started: The double standard is m outrage against every honest instinct of the heart, and a blot upon iur pretended civilization. Jonesville Letter. Jonesviile, March 25.?While other tarts of the country are being visited vith storms and destruction of life ind property we are blest with good nouuraie weamer ana no loss 01 Hie r property for which we should be hankful and grateful Our people were disappointed Sunlay night in not having Bishop Lamiuth with us according to announcenent. By some misuhderstanding in he Bishop's itinerary through the ountry he was unable to fill his aplointment here. The Methodist church ras packed with people anxious to ee and hear the Bishop, but they yere very well served after all, by a ine missionary sermon by Rev. D. E.

Mr. J. T. A. Belue of Laurens ounty was in Jonesville shaking lands with his friends here who are nany. I am always glad to see Alf, ?ut don't see him often. We hear much talk of the high >rice of living and is sure no idle aiK. i neara a man say the other lay he had bought two pigs from a leighbor and when he brought them lome and weighed them he found hat he had paid 33 cents a pound for lis pigs. We haven't bought an Easter hat it our house yet, but I am told they ire just out of sight, just about as ligh as the fellow's pigs were. Miss Margaret Adams, who is eaehing at Kelton, spent Sunday in onesville and attended services at he Methodist church. I)r. L. A. Riser, the hookworm ex?ert, was in Jonesville one day last veek, and examined 22 people and le found that 33 per cent of them lad hookworms. Mr. and Mrs. \V. H.
