GEORGE HARVE
In addressing the graduates of tl
commencement of Anderson Colleg
South Carolina, Hon. Josephus Dar
els, former Secretary of the Nav
paid his respects to George Farvi
in these caustic sentences:
"Not in the history of diploma
ic relations has any man so slanden
the American nation and peopi.j j
the present ambassador to the eou
of St. James, when he recently said
London" that America entered tl
war, not to save bleeding Europe ni
the world for democracy, but to sa:
our own interests. It is a slam!
aimed at every American mother wl
sacrificed and worked that her s<
might go to the front to fight the fo
of democracy, freedom and equi
among nations of the earth and n
heart is glad to see the Americt
press, the people and the party i
this man are not. behind this scan
dalous statement.
"Failure of the United States
ratify the peace treaty is responsib
for the anxiety in America toda
depressed conditions and the lo
price of cotton."
MEXICO
A man wno has recently return*
from a trip through Mexico wtTTes a
interesting article to the New Yoi
Evening Post about conditions i
that land of contradictions and ii
activity. When it comes to fightir
and scrapping the Mexican is as
a wildcat. They can out do the wor
in making revol.i .1 ?.
The wr'ter in the Post pays a hig
compliment to Ohregon, claimir
that he is the man of the hour and tl
hope of Mexico. He says:
"Obregon knows the game. It
not a job for kid gloves. Trcasc
stalks in the shadow behind many
tree. The habit of shooting has b<
come so prevalent that it cannot 1
overcome in a week."
Referring to the rural populatic
of Mexico, he says there is no sa<
der picture than is presented by tl
masses of country people of that ui
happy country.
This is the sad picture he paint
"In rags and tatters, they turn u
their faces in silent appeal wherevi
a train stops. They need food; tht
need clothes; th?>y need edueatio
Most of all, they need kindness ar
fair treatment. Possessing the riche
Luuiui y un cairn, tucse sixteen mi
lions are the most forlorn and p:
thetc of all peoples."
Mr. Nickswine, from whom we ai
quoting advises that this administr:
tion should recognize Obregon ai
render him all possible assistance i
smoothing the rough places, and i
bringing peace and prosperity to th
people. He refers to the work thj
Obregon has already accomplished i
this very optimistic paragraph:
"In the few months since he cam
into power Obregon has done wondei
ful work. The bandits that infestc
the country have stayed their ham
?it is said many have gone to worl
Train service has been restored i
many places where before it was in
possible to operate owing to the lav
lessness. A trained constabulary c
soldiers is in evidence at every sts
tion of consequence. The lawless eh
ment in the labor situation is boin
successfully dealt with. So many an
so widespread are the evidences of
government at last that the who!
'country is taking on a new aspec
and confidence?the precursor c
business revival?has come in larp
measure. There is susbtantial ev
dence of revival and of new ventun
in the oil, lumber, mining, railroa
and agricultural industries?all du
to tht. hope Obregon has inspired."
A great deal of Amorienri Carvif.
has been invested in Mexico in o
and other interests. Whether M
Nickswine is one of the Hearst eoi
Undent with large interests in tfc
land of Manana is not apparent bi
it is evidently the duty of the a<
ministration to assist in bringing o
der out of chaos and to lend a helpir
hand to a sister Republic, and in thi
way keep our own people as wellour
people who have invested mont
in Mexico. What we did for Cul
may be done for Mexico.

MILK THREE TIMES DAILY
"What lot of milk you use"' ex_
Maimed Mrs. Olds, watching the milkY
nan place 4 quart boftles and a pint
_ n her neighbors porch step. 'What
r ?n earth do you do with it all?"
jn Mrs. Newsom looked somewhat astonished.
"Why," she replied, "we

dnce he has been on the high-school
n~ ithletic team, very often uses a glass

to wants his coffee for breakfast ar.d tea

es "You don't mean to say you give 4ty
year-old Billy tea and coffee?"
ty An illumination of many points
in ibout her neighbors family came sudof
denly to Mrs. Newsom. She had ali?
ways supposed the Olds children were
delicate and obviously undernourishto
ed, because there were so many of
le them to bring up on a small salary,
y, Apparently, however there had been
w i very grqve blunder in the diet of
the whole family, one which could
have been avoided even with their
limited income, because milk is one
;d of the cheapest sources of r.ourishront
m obtanable.
k AN OLD NEGRO'S PRAYER
A white minister, after conducting
services in a colored church, asked an
old deacon to lead the congregation in
I j prayer. The brother in black offered
u very fervent appeal for the white
^ brother and said:
"O Lord giv him de eye of de eagle,
dat he may spy out sin afar off. Put
his hand to de gospel plow. Tie his
. tongue to de line ob truth. Nail his
ear to de gospel pole. Bow his haid
way down 'twixt his knees in some
lonesome, dark and narrow valley,
where prayer is much wanted to be
)C
made. 'Noint him wid de kerosene ile
of salvation and den set him on fire!"

DUTY
Could I but do one worthy deed.
Or write one living line
To fill the measure of my need?
Could 1 but sow one fruited seed.
Then were contentment mine. '
Could' I but sing one living song
To banish mortal pain;
Could I but right one crying wrong
Or help one weaker soul along,
I had not lived in vain.
So vast the universe, so cold
The peaks to which we climb,
So gray the skies, the stars so old!
So many sheep strayed from the fold
And so swift fleeting TimeStrive
as I may, somehow it seems
That each succeeding sun
Finds me yet distant from my dreams
I On paths rock strewn, with swollen
streams
And no day's journey doneV..4
A - *

- Still I must do my best,
So, when I pass from out the night
'Into the day, into the light.
My weary soul may rest!

THE PROOF READER'S NEMESIS
"What's the maiter?" inquired
the foreman, as he entered the sanctum
for copy and noted the editor's
bleeding nose, swollen forehead, puffed,
red eye, and tattered, dusty coat, i
"Fall down stairs?*' "No-?only ,
that," replied the editor, pointing his
finger to a paragraph in the paper before
him. "It's our account of the ,
Crapley?Smith wedding. It ought to
read, 'Miss Smith's dimpled, shining
face formed a pleasing contrast with
Mr. Crapley's strong, bold physiog- ,
nomy.' But see how it is printed. ' " (
And the foreman read, "Miss Smith's i
pimpley, skinny face formed a pleas- (
ing contrast with Mr. Crapley's stony, |
bald physiognomy. " "Crapley was
just in here," continued the editor,
throwing one bloodstreaked handker- f,
chief into the waste-basket and feel- j
ing in his pockets for a clean one, (
"and he?but just send that fool of a ;
proof reader in here! There's fight
left in me yet."?Exchange.
OPEN THE DOOR OF YOUR HEART
Open the door of your hearV my
friend,
Heedless of class or creed,
When you hear the cry of a brother's
voice,
The sob of a child in need.
To the shining heaven that o'er vou
bends
You need no map or chart.
But only the love the Master pave?
Open the door of your heart.

WHO USES THE MATCH?

By QARRET SMITH
"Got a match?" ,
How many time* a day la that fU*P>
' tlon asked In the** United States?
How many -more times is the Question
" unnecessary because most pockets are
> kept well supplied with ths useful
1 little article? Anyhow, inasmuch as it
I is estimated that there are 30,000,000
tobacco users in the country, we would
<ni*afl that fha n niu-or tr? fhst niiastfnn
would run Into the hundreds of million*.
For if It weren't for the smoker* la
- Hjese day* of electric light* how many
matches would be used? A pretty
small proportion of the number of
these "sticks of blaze*" produced in
the country every year. Abolish tobacco
and the match buslnes* would b?
shot to pieces.
I But the match business Is only one
of a dozen or more allied Industries
which derive large revenues directly or
Indirectly from the tobacco trade and
would suffer heavily If national prohibition
of tobacco were to go Into
effect as some of our reformers would
have It. The annual sales of tobacco
' products, based on retail prices. Is es
tlmated at *1,037,000,000. Of the cost
: of producing and selling this qaantity
I of cigars, cigarettes and other forms
I of the .weed, some hundreds of million
J dollars are paid out for other things
than the raw tobacco and labor of
making It up.
*25,000,000 a Year for Bexos
For example, the tobacco trade consumes
each year 45,000,000 pounds of
licorice, 50,000,000 pounds of sugar,
both used In flavoring tobacco, and
050,000 tons of coal. It Is estimated
that tl?e value of wooden cigar boxes
used Is $25,000,000 a year, quite an
Item to the lumber business and to
manufacturers of the boxes.
t In making these boxes 050,000
pounds of nails are employed. Other
large Items used In making and preparing
tobacco for sale are tin and
lead foil, paper for bags and cigarette
wrappers, cloth for tobacco bags, labels,
coupons, etc., Involving the printing
trade extensively.
Then building contractors and manufacturers
of machinery are largely Interested.
Investments In plants and
machinery employed In manufacturing
tobacco are estimated at $102,000,
000. Replacement, up-keep and Interest
on the Investment make uo small
sum annually.
And let realty men note there ara
approximately 323,000 tobacco farms
j In the country, with a total estimated
valuation of $100,000,000. Of further Interest
to real estate man is the fact
I that there are 700,000 retail establlsh.
ments selling tobacco, Involving a total
rental and up keep Impossible to estimate,
besides the large amount of office
space occupied by administrative
branches of the general business.
The Insurance men, too, have their
share of the pickings. The tobacco
i bus ness pays out annually $7,000,000
t In premiums In the United States.
And there are the railroads who reap
k revenue from 2,210,000 tons of tobacco
products every year.
As Yor the advertising business,
here again It is Impossible to form
any estimate of the enormous annual
. outlay.
The prohibition of tobacco would also
I knock a good-sized hole In the receipts
of the Ualted States government.
i Tha 1 - -
, liC iitixii hki mrmiie receipt* from
tobacco for the fiscal year 1920 amounted
to $295,809,355.44- Customs duties
provided an additional $25,000,000 In
round figures, making the total revenue
return to the government $320,000,000.
Influence en Popular Sentiment
It Is this Interlocking of the tobacco
bus'ness with so many other Interests *v
and the vast amount of financial loss
that would he involved In the abolition
of tobacco that is one of the most serious
aspects of the proposal to prohibit
the aule of tobacco, a proposal,
however, which has little support by
public sentiment If the newspaper editors
of the country are correct In their
estlmnte of that sentiment.
In a poll of the editors made recently
by the Tobncco Merchants' Association
of the United States, through the Press
Service Company of New York City,
95 per cent of t'he 7,847 editors who
replied expressed the opinion that the
people of their commun'tles were opposed
to any law ngalnRt tobacco. As
these editors represent Home 80,000,000
readers the results form a pretty general
test of national opinion.
In their remarks accompanying their
replies many of the editors expresaed I
I It as their opinion tliut the oppos tlon
| of their eoiiimiinlfioa ?>?
iiiv nuoiltion
of tohncco whh based to some extent at
least on the damage such a (change
would do to the business Interests of
the community. This was particularly
true In the tobacco growing states and
centers where there were large tobacco
plants.
But when the extent of the business
Involved In the allied Interests of tho
tobacco trade Is considered, as above
briefly outlined. It Is clear that there
1 la hardly a section of the country that
would not be affected directly or Ui.
! directly by abolishing tobacco.
