The New York Post apply SAYS:
The demand that our present in

Where population is concentrated and
retail business is on q large scale
there is multitude of delivery
agents. The service of the larger
city stores runs out through the whole
suburban region. and there is always
swarm of local Expresses radiatinS
out from populous centres In the
country all this is different. What
ever farmer buys he must get home
for himself. The rural telephone
may have brought him within ORDER
ing distance or more than one town,
but If he wants to get what he tele-
phones for, he must hitch up horse
and wagon to get it. Now, when he
sees that the rural postman who
brings him his daily paper drives up
to his door with nothing in his
wagon but a small mail bag, he
would be very unintelligent farmer
IL he did not reason that this same
postman might just as we'll bring him
his small parcels too.
Strange. is it not. that what is so
plain to city man should be a
doubtful matter to some farmers?

The True Test of Success.

There are many men who have
made success, as the world counts
success. That is, they have accumu-
lated wealth in spite Of the fact that
they had no educational advantages.
But this does not prove that educa-
ton is a disadvantage These men.
by reason Of brains and energy, have
succeeded in spite Of being handi-
capped by lack of education, and not
by reason OF the lack. In fact, the
same men would have taken far high
or positions had they had educa
tional advantages. OF course, there
are many men who have made a poor
use of their education, but this is
the fault Of the men and not Of the
education.
But while the world admires a
man VINO has piled up great many
dollars, Is the accumulation Of a for
tune the best measure Of the success
Of mans life, The fact is that the
men who have done the most good
in the world, the men who have in
f1uenced their race for better things.
have rarely made fortunes and while
the college graduate may not, for the
reason Of being a graduate, be able
TO accumulate dollars he will certain
ly be prepared to do more service to
humanity than the uneducated man.
And after all, is not the. amount Of
service the man renders to humanity
better measure Of success than the
piling up Of a fortune to ruin his
children?
The man who sends out into the
world a family OF well educated sons
and daughters has made rea, success
even If it took his last dollar TO edu-
cate them. The influence OF his life
Will be felt long after he is in his
grave. The young man with a good
education. and without a dollar to
start with, is in a far better shane
than the ignorant young man who
has a fortune left him. IL fact. q
fortune is, as n rule, more Of a handi
cap than help to young man start
ing in life. The best fortune YOU can
possibly leave your children is a
thoroughly good education.
one Of the most pleasant things I
saw in the last issue Of The Progress
slve Farmer was the reports from the
various State Superintendents show
ing the great progress that IS being
made in the South in educational
matters. The boys can no. all get

Meeting Of Sumter County Farmers
Union at ElliOtts, August 3rd.

Owing to the splendid rain which
fell around Elliotts about 9 o'clock
the local attendance was not as good
as usual. Good delegations were
present from the local union.
The delegates to the recent State
meeting reported, and expressed their
regret that every farmer in the State
could not see the earnestness and
business-like manner Of the State
union.
Sumter union indorsed the meas
ures sent down from the State union
and appointed committees to put the
plans of the State union in oper-
alton.
The most important matters for
publication were the address to the
people on the cotton situation and
the committee to confer with the
chamber Of Commerce of Sumter
next Monday. August 18th.
In accordance with the decision at
Trinity to have health talks, a train
ed nurse gave an illustrated lecture
on nursing in the home Of several
ladies OF the union in the school house
after dinner. while the men were
having an informal discussion out
under the trees. If this feature
proves attractive it is the intention
of the health committee, Mrs. III. w.
Beall, Mr.. S. G. Harvin and Mr.. III. Il.
Benson. to try to secure lecturers on
health and domestic science for the
ladies at every county meeting of the
union.
Mr.. III. w. Beall, who is chairman
OF the State committee on Farm Life
Schools, hopes to make the after
noon of each meeting instructive by
discussion OF the county school prob
lem.
The cotton committee. T.. w. Dabbs
j. Nj. Brogdon and $. n. Welch, have
issued an address to the people on
that subject. AS our objects can best
be secured by the widest publicity
that address was given to the press
of the State with the request that
every paper reproduce it.

Chamber of Commerce of Sumter at

TAFTs TARIFF VETO.


Washington. Aug 3.-Congres-

today said that adjournment Of con-
gress would depend largely upon how
quickly President Taft vetoes the first

n frankly admitted that the first
veto will put a quietus on further
tariff reduction activities and that
congress will adjourn with prompt
ness after that.
Few callers believe that congress
wiz be here later than August 20.
Congressional leaders today said
the wool bin will he the first to reach
the White House.
Some OF them are figuring on that
bin going through and reaching the
president by Saturday. at any rate not
later than Monday.
IL this Is done there Is little doubt
that the president will flash his veto
to the country within six hours after
wards All he wants Is sufficient time
60 prepare this veto. which will un-
questionably become campaign
document In the presidential race
next year. What the president says
In that veto will be the beacon light
for his party next year. and will be
quoted from a, thousand campaign
platforms In the next Is months. The
president knows just what ne wants to
say but. owing to the Importance Of
the wording of the veto. he will nec-
essariiy want little time IN his
preparations.
