Bishops Don't Do 1t

A friend of the late Father Tabb
said in Ellicott City:
"This fine poet and good man
thought that class hatred was due to
ignorance-that the rich knew too lit
tie of the poor, and vice versa
HE once illustrated this ignorance
with the story of a Methodist bishops
wife who addressed a meeting of slum
housewives on their home duties. The
address made the home life seem all
very fine and ideal, but one housewife
voiced the opinion of the rest, per-
haps, when she said to her neighbor,
with a sniff:
"'She's all right as far as she goes;
but what I'd like to ask her is this:
What does she do when her old bishop
comes home pay night with his en-
velope empty and a fghin' jag on?'"

A MATTER OF REGRET.

We are very sorry to learn that the
residents of tombstone school district
have voted to repeal the special tax
in that district for the maintenance
of the school. This school, during the
past year, had one of it's most pleas
ant and successful sessions and that
should have been an encouragement
to vote even a larger tax.
The building needs repairs and the
grounds ought to be put in more at
tracti7e appearance, and the school
should have two teachers all the year.
We had hoped tina the patrons of this
school and the citizens of the district
would retain this tax and take more
pride in building up, at this place,
one of the model schools Of this coun-
ty. It is finely located and would have
been an object lesson.
The three mill tax for school pur-
poses would not have been very much
of a burden and especially when
thr~ee-fourths of it is paid by people
who own property in the district and
who do not reside there, and, there
fore, have no children to be educated
in the district. The vote to repeal,
however, was a very decisive one.

cultivate the trees early in March,
leaving a narrow strip of clover in

two to three. feet wide will produce
enough seed for the entire middle.
After the seed have ripened, the Glow

cover crop and may be treated in the

The Importance Of planting cover
crops in our orchards is being more
fully appreciated each year, yet in
some of the principal fruit districts
of the South we find many large or
chards where no cover crops have
been planted. The result is the soil
in these orchards is becoming more
impoverished each year by the leach
ing of soluble fertilizers by surface
washing and for want of humus. In
most cases the orchards are located
on the more elevated land which is
billy or rolling with sandy soil and
clay subsoil. On such soil it is hard
to prevent surface washing entirely,
but it could be reduced to the mini
mum by the proper Isl of cover
crops. Not only do these cover crops
prevent surface washing, but they
utilize the soluble fertilizers which
would otherwise leach out of the soil.
When the crop is turned under, it
adds considerable humus to the soil
and the fertilizers required to pro-
duce it become available for the use
Of the trees. The plants used as Gov
er crops are of two distinct types,
nO71r0inNrrc .on6 nnN -1no1,roS~n J,o
plants. The 1egumes, such as clov-
er, cowpeas and vetch, in addition to
furnishing humus have the power Of
collecting nitrogen from the air and
adding this valuable fertilizer to the
soil for the use Of other plants. The
non-ieguminous plants, such as rye,
oats and turnips, do not collect nitro
gen from the air but when sown in
the early fall consume soluble plant
food during their growth which would |
otherwise be lost by teaching and
which is returned to the soil when !
the cover crop is plowed under in
the spring. Most soils where orch
ards are planted are deficient in both
humus and nitrogen and therefore a
leguminous cover crop should be Sc
lected. If the trees make sufficient
growth without the use of nitrogen
Gus fertilizers then a non-leguminous
cover crop may be planted.
l think I am safe in saying, how
ever, that there are few commercial
orchards in the South that are not
in need of both nitrogen and humus. |
TO accomplish our purpose Of adding
nitrogen and humus to the soil and
to prevent surface washing, we
should have both a winter and sum-
mer cover crop. Rye followed by
cowpeas will give best results on poor
soil. The rye should be sown in the
early fall in order that it may cover
the ground as soon as possible and
prevent surface washing. The rye
should be turned under not later than
the last of March. This may be &C
complished by double narrowing with

the spirit which is characterizing the
business men of our sister town of
Prosperity. They are taking a great

of South Carolina. The population Of
No. 9 township is largely white, and
the farr-., while small, are owned by
those who live upon them, and the
land is valuable and productive and
the farmers are prosperous. There is
no reason why the people Of this COM

build a cotton mill so as to enlarge,
not only the pay roll of their commu-
nifty, but also the local market for the
farmers who live in that section.

The great end of all human indus
try is the attainment Of happiness
Hume.
That is very we'll and very true, but
did it ever occur to you the great diff
ference in human beings as to what
constitutes happiness? I mean the
different conceptions men have Of
what is necessary to procure happi-
ness. Some seem to think the amass-
ing Of great wealth will bring happi-
ness. Others that political honors and
the applause of men will give happi-
ness. Still others want power. All
these are found wanting in the final
analysis of life and the only real hap
piness is to be found in a life of SER
vice. Service not of self, but service
of ot~hers-helpful service. No purely
selfish life can find happiness any,
where either at the end or the begin
ming or in the hereafter.
I have always believed in the gospel
of hope and good cheer and kind
illness and faith and I have here
tofore quoted the saying of a very old
man who in reviewing his life said
he had had a great many troubles in
his day and most of them never hap
pened. 1t is wrong to ourselves and
those with whom we are to live to be
crossing the bridge before we get to
it. No use to hunt up old man trou-
BILE, he will find you. But what I
started out to say is that I found the

Hope.

Hopefulness is 4 true sight Of great
ness. It means a conviction that we
are greater than our troubles, great
er than the world itself, greater than
death, and can hold our own whatever
comes, in the universe anywhere and
through all eternity. Such convic-
ton makes a man a god. 1t is better
than riches or high position. 1t max
es Of a poor man a king. A person
who constantly fears or worries is
practically an atheist. He has no
faith in himself or any other being. He
does not usually live long. Worry
kills more than whiskey; it really
hardens the arteries.
No man has a right to kill his
friends by a sad, morose c~ountenance.
A long face is no mark of religion. It
is out of date just now and forever.
S~our-looking people should be shut
up in jail; they are dangerous. 1t is
a good thing to throw backyour Shout
ders, walk erect, and believe that you
own the whole city. You can do it as
really as any one else, and you feel
better for the belief. Most Of u
troubles are fear for the future, only
~"bogies" which disappear when you
walk up to them. There is a good
time coming. tits here already, if
we only knew it.
"To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin"
/ see some of these little towns like
Spartanburg and Gafney are getting
up protests against the census emu
merators even before the work is fin
ished and are making complaint that
the people have not been correctly
enumerated. That is usually the case
where there has been too much claim
ing. The facts and figures are about
to call their bluff. Now it does not
make so much difference to NeWberry
because if we do not show up over g.
900 in the census everybody will know
that the figures are wrong and New
berry can still be the very best town
in the State if the Z. S.. census emu
merators fail to count all the people,
for we know that we are.
Of course, if we could get The Id
ler's Park started that would give us
a little better standing with ourselves
and with visitors, but then I believe
it is the philosophers who tell us that
big bodies move slowly at first but
when you once get them started they
remind you Of the speed of Halley's
