The May Pop.

Next to nut grass the May Pop is the
most industrious hard working plant of
the South. In season and out OF season it
works. 1t is an example for the sluggard.
For penetration and 'stickability" it has
no equals, nut grass excepted.
1t is said that one Mr.. Leard of Able
vile County while digging a well and
having reached a depth Of something like
fourty feet encountered there a root, white
and succulent which to his establishment
proved to be the top root Of a May Pop
vine. Mr.. Leard had always wondered
why it was when cotton was nearly dead
for the want of moisture that the may pop
seemed to thrive just as we'll as ever, that
while the blades Of corn shreveled and
dried UP during a drought the may pop
was ever green and tlourishing. When he
discovered the root at..the bottom Of the
well he no longer wondered.
The May Pop is a beautiful flower. 1t is
much priced by people who live in a differ
emit cline from ours. Not long since a
man who lives in Ireland wrote a friend
in South Carolina to send him a passion
flower. The flower was forwarded.
The May Pop got its name Of passion
flower from the early Spanish settlers of
the South. They were a sentimental i'm
aginative people and could see more in a
flower than the ordinary man. They i'm
agined that the flower represented the
Passion of our Lord. The fringe. vari-
colored, was taken to represent the crown
Of thorns. Just above the fringe are five
yellow petals on green stamens, these to
the imaginative Spanish mind represented
the marks Of the wounds. Two in the
hands, two in the feet and one in the side.
Still further from the fringe are three
styles which represent the nails of the
cross.
On account Of the large and beautiful
flowers many of the May Pop species are
cultivated in hot houses. In tropical
countries they are cultivated for their
fruit.

Two constabIes and a Baby.

A negro named Met Patterson
was arrested July %, charged with assault
with intent to kill Mr.. John d. Alewlne
It seems that the woman had a baby about
five months old, which fact she forgot tc
montion at the preliminary trial. AS she
was sent to Jail the five months old baby
was left Oh Mr.. Will Bells plantation
Tho baby refused to be comforted. II
would eat none of the handmade foods
prepared for it by the kindly folk there
about. and it cried necessarily. MI. Bell
stood the crying baby as long as he could
and he then phoned Magistrate Hardness
to como and get the baby. The Magis-
trate's Constable, Mr. Prince, said he
would resign his job before he would take
the negro baby to the Jail.
Magistrate Hardness was up against IT,
hit out OF the kindness Of his heart he
determined to do something. He agreed
to "a with his deputy. The two secured
the weeping infant, and armed with all
the majesty of the law, they brough 1t TO
,Abbcville. The deputy refused to carry
the baby, but Magistrate Hardness took
if cooling in his arms to Sheriff Lyon, who
took immediate charge.
BY dint of good nursing, paregorlc' etc.
the baby was landed safely in jail, IN the
arms of it's mother. Sheriff Lyon Will
help to take care OF 1t hereafter.

Should Judges Delay Opinions.

Charles Dickens emphasized the tardi-
ness of English Courts, that often delayed
even to the miscarriage of justice.
In a recent number of the Saturday
Evening Post nu merous cases of delay in
our own courts were cited, in some of
which, judgment was so long suspended by
application for new trial, appeal and other
wise, that the parties originally gaining
the suits, died or gave up in despair, for
want Of funds to further prosecute their
claims.
That such delays are common even in
our State Courts seems incredible; and
yet they are. In this County when Green
wood was part Of it, the Pope Salinas
case, a suit over q house and lot in Ninety
Six, in n form or another, was in the
courts for ten o rtwelve years.
A growing evil Of the courts Is the
tendency Of Judges to hold up their de-
cisions. The State Constitution provides
that decisions must be rendered within
sixty days from the date of hearing, and
yet some Judges have held cases three
months, six months and even twelve
months. When it is considered that the
%tortuous way to the Supreme Court, and
possibly back for e trial, must be en-
dured by the parties to a suit, and the in
terests of the parties, however momentus
must stand in allegiance, all the while,
there is little wonder that the people COM
plain Of delay in court procedure.
While there is no court other than the
Legislature that can hold a Judge accoun-
table for such delays, a sense Of his res
possibility, consideration for the interests
Of the parties to a suit, and the plain
mandate Of the constitution should be
to him imperative reasons for rendering
his decisions promptly.

Consistency.
iContributed.)

A number Of our exchanges ore CRITICS.
ing the consistency or Inconsistency of the
candidates for Governor. This scribe al
WAYS reserves the right to change his
mind next wCck-if convinced that we were
wrong, or mistaken, last week. Consist
ency is a fool, and never learns anything.
Only fools and dead men never change
their mind. 1t may be that some of the
candidates for Governor know more about
1.-The LIQUOR business today than they knew
about it years ago, and their added knowl-
edge has warranted Il change of their
mind.
We have always voted, as We thought.
flor the least evil in the liquor traffic, and
expect to do the same thing in the future.
But we do not propose to vote for State
wide prohibition. AS we look at it, Able
vile County has no legal or moral right to
interfere with the local government or af-
fairs of another county. The wishes of
the people Of other counties should be re-
spected, ever as other counties respected
the wishes of the people Of Abbeville
county.
Another matter: II prohibition is forced
on an unwilling county, how are we to en-
force the law in that county?
Again: Prohibition, with no provision
for the aged or the sick to get whiskey, is
not right. A law that is too stringent can
not or will not be enforced, and should not
be enforced. Very many old persons, and
some sick persons, or their physicians,
think they need a little whiskey. Is it,
then, for their neighbors to deny it to
them?
We care not what any candidate thought
years ago of State wide prohibition, or To-
cal option, as we do not expect to vote for
a State wider" Nor do we expect to vote
for one who is not in favor Of modifying
the existing law-if there is such an II in
the field.
While we voted against closing the dis
pensary, we would not vote to open 1t
again. But the prohibition should be so
modified that feeble folk or sick folk, or
others needing it as a medicine, could be
allowed to keep it in their houses, even if
they were not legally allowed to buy it.

Iv quantity himself. He was curslng the

Prof. Patterson Wardlaw.

Prof. L. w. Dick, Superintendent OF the
Abbeville Summer School, has arranged
for several lectures. The first was de-
livered Monday night by Prof. Patterson
Wardlaw of the South Carolina University.
Prof. Wardlaw spoke of the great
changes that arc going OH in cducaticn
and the tendency of the day toward voca-
tional education. An appreciative auGi-
encc heard the address which was inter-
csting because it was intensely practical,
opening to the minds of his hearers some
thing of the thought that is being agitatcd
in educational circles all over the land.
He spoke of how Educators are noting
the value of technical education and are
about ready to cast off as useless and
worthless many things that II fathers
studied a~siduously.
As a matter Of fact we are just entering
an era of universal education, which OF
course means mind training for every
man and woman in the body polite for
some purpose in life. II education then
S to serve its purpose it must not only
train men for the polite professions but
also train men for the common vacations
in life, and as we all know, to do this will
require many radical changes in our
present standards.
To take a concrete example: There are
in our city, say, among the white popula-
ton of $500. Five ministers Of the Gospel,
eightlawyers, six doctors, eight pharma-
cists, sixteen teachers and maybe a dozen
others whom our present methods OF
education would help ~vocationally. There
arc then fifty five out Of two thousand and
five hundred! What about the other two
thousand four hundred and ~forty-flve:
Have they not the right to demand some
vocational education? Do they not pay
their part OF the taxes? There are some
of the questions that arc occupying the
thoughts of our educators of to-day.
OF course the schools, and colleges as
we'll are open, to boys and girls from the
industrial walks of life and always have
been but what is there for them in the
colleges and schools. Prof. Wardlaw says
most people answer this by saying that
they have their minds trained but that he
doubts whether five men out Of a hundred
know just what they are talking about
when they answer thus.
No plan for the education of these two
thousand four hundred and forty-five has
been formulated. Schools and colleges all
over the county are experimenting, feeling
in the dark for some method by which
they may accomplish something for the
vocational classes.
Years e vocational education was re-
ceived thru the old method Of apprentice
ship. Many men in Abbcvillc to-day
received their education thus, but to-day
men are asking the question why cannot
the schools Of our State accomplish for
the individual what the old apprenticeship
plan accomplished. The question has not
yet been answered. But there is a way
and it will be found. Be assured that the
teachers of this land are not asleep and no
more progress is being made in any other
profession than in the teachers profession.
1t is their problem and they will work it
out in their own good time.
