DR.. Harms at Opening Of Laurens City
Schools.
Laurens Advertiser, 18th

Laurens Advertiser, 18th.
The address of DR.. Harms was one
that could hardly be done justice to
except by listening TO it. He is one
of ehe most polished orators that ever
spoke in Laurens and throughout his
address Monday he was given the very
closest attention. Even the smallest
of the children present. showed that
thew were attentive to his word oy
at odd times questions put
to the school on different phases OF
the subject in hand. While MS WORDS
were addressed principally to the chill
dren, the older people present listen
ed with rapt attention and were per-
haps inspired to start out anew to Try
and accomplish things they nao no'
succeeded in before. DR.. Harms maze
a nlea to the children to endeaVor u
round out for themselves a year OF
work in which every faculty wnlcn
+bav nossessed would be brought INTO
activity. He urged upon them tne
;mnortance of having we'll rounded
nnrpose in life and not to devote al
Of their energies along one line o.
endeavor. He said that there were
|! things for the hands to do' things lor
thu head to do and. things Tor tne
heart and that only through tne oe-
va7onment of all these faculties couhu
+bov hone to round out a perfect year
,f work. He took occasion to say III
~ oarlv stage of his address that 1ne
obi1dron of Laurens we're very lor-
+nna+o in their educational faclllueS
in that they had a school Dulloms
u.b;cb would serve as model Tor any
oi+v IN the State and superintendent
who had few equals anywhere. Dr'
Harms urged the children to take ao-
z,ntage of their opportunities for the
e,,+,r, welfare of the State, and o.
tho South depended upon the educa-
riona1 development of the white chill
dren He related a pitiful story OF oil
od,,cated negro boy and an llllterate
white youth to stress the importance
If Statewide compulsory education
law Dr. Harms was heartily applauo-
~ when he finished his address.

through great lanes Of machinery anu
seeing hundreds OF million dollars
worth of stock in process OF manufac-
turt, am thoroughly convinced that
We will be more nearly able to meet
the demand for Flanders "2O' and E
M-F '3O'' cars next year than We have
evsr been before. Of course, that is
not saying we will get enough.
'The demand always seems to keep
ahead of the supply on these cars,
and while the shortage of EMF "30's"
was a most serious problem last year,
it looks as if Flanders "20" is going to
be our chief problem this year, be-
cause this car is now the most popular
car in America and it's wonderful per-
fornance in road contests and hill
climbing is increasing its popularity
daily"
Mr.. Waldrop was enthusiastic in his
description of Detroit, which IS the
worlds greatest automobile centre as
well as one of the most beautiful cities
in America. We devoted several hours
to driving about the several parks
and bouleuards of Detroit, and our trip
to Mr.. Flanders home and back was
over thirty-two miles of road, part
of which over the beautiful Bloomfield
hills. Few places in America have
more charms than this. And, what
with the sightseeing and charming
hospitality of Mr.. Flanders and his
delightful little wife to say nothing Of
the trip there and back on the luxur-
ious special train, felt more like
millionaire who had been on a pleas
ant vacation than one who had been on
business trip

must not mix the two kinds OF love-
here referred to, for if you do you Will
entirely misinterpret my meaning and
my purpose in making these obserVa-
tions. The kind of love I am talking
about takes in the broadest kind OF
charity, of speech and of action, and
does not think evil, but always de-
lights in doing good and in saying
kind and pleasant things and believes
that other people are honest and good,
until you are sure they are not, and
then it tries to make them good and
true. And it knows you can not make
them good and true by abusing them
and saying all kind of unkind thikngs.
See the point? If you do not I am
afraid I can not convince you.
II my next am going to get down.
that statute book of the town and tell
you about some more of those city
laws. I see that another city election
is about to be held in this good old;
town, and I am going to advise the
people to find out where the candi-~
dates stand so that we may know what
to expect of the ones We vote for. 1t.
is important for this old town to wake
up and do something. It is all right
to have big automobile garages, but
we want to put up the price OF cotton
and cotton seed, if we want to do
business at the same stand. I hope;
there is no statute in this town book
which says that the price in Newberry
must be just a little below Pomaria
and Chappells. If find it am going
to ask that it be put in the category
with some of the other laws and over

ECZEMA GONE, B0lLS CURED

My son was about three weeks old
when l noticed a breaking-out on his
checks, from which a watery sub
stance oozed. A short time after, his
arms. shoulders and breast broke out
also, and In a few days became a solid
scab. ] became alarmed, and called
our family physician, who at once pro-
nounced the disease eczema. The lit.
tie fellow was under his treatment
for about three months. BY the end
OF that time, he seemed no better. /
BEGAN discouraged, and as | had
q the advertisements of Cuticura
Remedies and testimonials of a great
many people who had used them with
wonderful success, | dropped the doc
tors treatment. and commenced the
use OF Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and In a few days noticed a marked
change. The eruption on his cheeks
was almost healed. and his shoulders,
arms and breast were decidedly bet
ter. When he was about seven
months old all trace Of the eczema
was gone.
Durlng his teething period, his
head and face were broken out in
boils which 1 cured with C%uticura
Soap and Ointment. Surely he must
have been a great sufferer. During the
time Of teething and from the time l
dropped the doctors treatment, | used
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment, nothing else. and when two
years old he was the picture of health.
His complexion was soft and beauti-
ful, and his head a mass Of silky curls.

be well. and feel that l owe a great
Deal to the Cuticura Remedies"
