1t has been decided by the city au-
thorities not to allow the carnival COM
pany to bring their shows here this
fall. The last one let loose a lot OF
ra rattlesnakes on the town, the result or
which are occasionally coming to light
In the killing of one Of the originals or
their progeny. In many other ways
these carnivals are undesirable. The
young men who are going the rounds
frequently tank up" little where they
otherwise might not. Young girls are
thrown into a certain intimacy with
people, whom otherwise they would not
know, when the confetti throwing be-
gins AS a rule the shows themselves
are bum" or at best not in the least
refined or eleva.ing. : Altogether, the
majority of Rock Hillians would no
doubt uphold the authorities in their
action in the matter.

are taking a stand In the matter OF
cleaning up the city's premises. They
also expressed themselves as in favor
of installing a system of sewerage.
This latter topic Is live issue In ROCK
Hill just now and the movement now
on will likely end in an election to say
whether 1t shall be done or not There
is not doubt that Rock Hill needs the
sewers

one years old and leaves a mother a
sister and a brother. He had practiced
here about three years before he was
stricken with this illness, but his prac-
tice was so large as to work him be-
yond his strength and this was largely
the cause of his giving away. He
worked up to the day he left here to go
to Charlotte for treatment by spe-
cialist-at that time his acute trouble
being ulcer Of the stomach. His body
was taken 10 the family burial ground
at Union church below Edgmoor. He
