Young People Appear Successfully in
Slow Going, Dry Comedy Of English

Cast Appear to Better Advantage
& Large Audience Attends.

Sixteen members of the senior class
Of the high school appeared success
fully in the annual class play, "The
Cabinet Minister" by Arthur Pinere, at
the Odeon theater Thursday night. An
audience that completely filled the
house witnessed the production, and
many who would have gone, had they
been able to get seats, did not go be-
cause the house was sold out early.
When it is remembered that the
Young people who made up the cast are
decidedly amateurish, and make no
claim to histrionic ability, their effort
was a very creditable one. Much just
criticism might, however, be made OF
the play itself. Aside from being de-
cidedly English, and entirely un-Am-
erican, it is very mild and tame
stage affair. It lacks both dramatic
action and keen humor. Tense situa-
tons are absent, and the humor, such
as it is. is of the very dry and pro-
verbally English sort.
Girls Excel Boys.
3 Generally speaking. the young
women Of the cast exceAed the boys
in the portrayal of the Individual Char
acters. Indistinct enunciation and
failure to speak up" marred most of
the male parts. There were, Of course.
the usual long delays between acts. and
a slowness Of movement that might be
expected in such a performance, but
the entire cast was letter perfect"
|anud prompting was unnecessary.
Miss Florence Stewart, ass Lao .
Twombley, and Miss Rena VanO r1nan,
as the Dowager Countess Of Drumdur-
RS, took first rank among the female
portion Of the cast. Miss Edna McGrew,
as Mrs. Gaylustre, and Miss Jessie Bra
mer, as Imogen, Lady Twombley's
daughter, were also good, the former
ha,tng an especially difficult emotion
al part.
Leon Brintnall, who had the part of
Brooke Twombley, the son of Sir Julian
TWpmbley, the cabinet minister, and
Halold Woodward, who took the part
OF Valentine White, were perhaps the
bestof the male members of the cast.
TIE entire cast is as follows:
Sir LILLIAN TWombley -. Frank Culley
Lady Twombley .. Florence Stewart

Imogen TWombley -. Jessie Bramer

CORRECTING A HEAVY DRAIN ON
THE SOUTH

South Carolina people are carrying
Insurance in Northern and Western
Companies to the amount of almost one
hundred million dollars and on this In
surance they are sending out of the
State every year to pay premiums over
three million dollars in cash. Consider
ing the fact that they have in their own
State Company whose responsibility
is just as high as any in the land, whose
Insurance is written on the straight old
lines that never yet have failed or
caused single whisper of scandal, is
it either patriotic, wise or in the per-
sonal interest of any South Carolnian
to buy Life Insurance elsewhere and
further deplete the cash resources of
his State and the South?
The drain is tremendous, but it can
be stopped by insuring in the first and
only old line Company in the State.

An Awful Charge.

In Laurens lastsweek there occurred
suicide of unusal sadness. A drunken
man had been locked up in the city
station house, where at some time dur
ing the night he hanged himself from
the top bars Of his cell 1t is strong
statement, but nevertheless a true one,
that the voters of Laurens county, who
are running dispensary, are RESPONSE
BILE in part for the prohigatc life and
sinful death Of that man. AS whiskcy
agents, they furnished him the means
of his destruction. They placed an un-
limited supply of whiskey in reach of
the man, then locked him up for drink
ing too much. They fed his appetite
for drink, thereby incurring response
bility that cannot be cvadcd. Laurcns
county is whiskey agent, resulting in
the debauching and destroying Of her
citizens. Union Times.

MIR. Featherstone for Governor.

Hon. C. C. Feathcrstone, of Laurcns,
who is spending several days in the city
with relatives, was asked today if he
would be candidate for governor two
years from now.
'It is too early to say positively" he
replied, "but | am inclined to think |
shall be in the race"
Mr.. Featherstone was a candidate for
governor four years ago on the prohibi-
tion ticket and received hattcrinp
vote. He announced himself as can
didate last winter, but later withdrew
upon receiving assurance that Gov. An
sci would espouse the prohibition cause.
His course then was very generally
commended, but many people today are
inclined to the belief that he would
have been elected if he had remained
in the race.
Mr.. Featherstonc is a native of An
derson, but moved to Laurens when a
young man and has lived there ever
since He is recognized as one of the
foremost lawyers in the state and is a
natural leader among men.
He still has fondness for Anderson
and comes here to visit his relatives
and friends as often as he can spare the
time. And the people of Anderson arc
fond of him and they will give him the
majority of their votes whenever he
runs for governor or any other office -

Cole BleaSe'S Platform.

The Hon. Cole Bleasc wants to be the
next governor of South Carolina. His
views are summarized in this platforms
"My motto in life is, and always will
be, to stick to the men that stick to
Bcase."
Some of the virtuous Palmcttos seem
to suppose that this is most cynical
platform. Certainly it is refreShingly
frank, but is it altogether new? Sup
pose that in place of the name of Cole
Blease is substituted that of Mr.. RooSe-
welt. With one slight addition the plat
form will then read:
my motto in life is, and always will
be, to stick to the men that stick to
Roosevelt-as long as need them.
Must not a practical man and states
man have practical rule of conduct?
Why is the Hon. Cole Blease blamed
for adopting a practical platform in a
form which indicates on his part a GER
tain sense of duty and of gratitude?
Sticking to" the more illustrious prac-
ttioner of high politics is regarded by
rapt millions as an act Of necessary and
yet pleasing worship.
The Hon. Cole Blease has put away
all illusions of his own. 1t remains for
him to stimulate, if he can, the growth
of them in South Carolina. The public
loves to adore. New York Sun.
