you can't win any game except by
playing it to win. Yet many women,
when they marry, behave as though
thev had won the game, instead of
just begun it,"
With these lines as a text, Anne
Crawford FleXner, who admits that she
has played to win-she is happily mar
ried and the mother of two children
has sprung into sudden fame as the
author of The Marriage Game, a
sprightly cons edy of modern marriage
which has scored the greatest dram
attic success of the week in New York.
This play presents the novel situa-
ton of a siren, who, after winning the
attention Of a group Of semi
husbands, holds the mirror up To their
wives that the astOnished ladies may
perceive that wifes worst enemy is
not the dreaded other Woman, but
purely and simply-HERSELF
Marriage is a game-the most diff
ficult yet the most fascinating game in
the world Mrs. FleXner explained TO
me yesterday. Il have observed il in
Europe and in the United States-Mr.

ct think the American girl accepts
marriage as an end instead of a be-

FRED KELLER.

When a reporter goes to interview
the most talked of man in town he
can't walk in on the subject like he
was peddling trouser-hangers or apple
butter in a coal ohice-particularly
when the man in question is about TO
become mayor. You have to pass a
civil service examination first.
At any rate that was my experience.
The other day one of those persons
who make a business of thinking up
things for other people TO do accosted
me at the intersection OF our street
car system and with q countenance
fairly beaming ingenuity suggested:
why don't you ask the new mayor
how he earned his first dollar? That

/ agreed that il ort. The mayors
first dollar would indeed be an inter-
esting dollar. L was sure the mayor
didn't earn it planting corn. 1t didn't
occur TO me at the time, however. that
the new mayor might be occupied with
four hundred and three other things
more important than trying TO remem-
her how he earned his first dollar, so
I battered over 10 his Office whistling

ton, comradeship. Very soon the
doll-wOman will discover that there is
nobody willing TO provide a dolls
house her"
IF marriage is a game, how shall
women play ii to VIM" L asked. Per
haps there are rules"
There are three rules" Mrs Flex-
ner answered with smiling readiness.
THE first is: Build no barriers be-
tween your husband and yourself. 1t
is hard enough for any two human be-
ings to understand each other when
love and sympathy have let down all
bars. The throwing up of artificial
barbados quarrelS, sulks, silly at
fectatinns, is fatal to happiness.
The second rule is: Let your hus-
band lead-sOmetimes. He is entitled
to his turn!
THE third is: Pursue no passionate
pursuit-yOur husband may pursue
another! Or at any rate she may pur-
sue him, This applies to the bridge
fiend, the society fiend, thei woman
who rides any of the hundred hobbies
of modern life into the ground.
after all, man plays the marriage
game fairly-he supports the woman
and her children. He is entitled TO
some return.
Il find that if the American woman
doesn't like her hand she is too in
clined to throw down her cards and
say she won't play. Don't you agree
with me?"
LAS to my own view of the marriage
game" / replied, 81 am convinced that
you finish at about the place you start.
In other words that in progressive
matrimony you don't really progress;
that first loves are best mainly because
last loves turn out invariably to be no
better! After all, any fool can get a
divorce, but it takes intelligence to stay
married."
why doesn't someone say that to
our young men and women" Mrs.
Flexner exclaimed. "Why don't we
break through the conspiracy of ST
lence that the world maintains against
them?"
Perhaps because we want them TO
get married" 1 suggested, but, after
all. are there no rules for men in the
marriage gamer"
There are" Mrs. Flexner replied
smilingly, but those rules are an
other play"

PYTHIANS MEET.
Grand Lodge Holds Its Annual Session
In Chester Next StOu.

Aiken, May 27.-An army of
knights of Pythias, about 200 strong
advanced upon Aiken today. Many
OF the knights came, upon a special
train over the Southern railway from
Columbia, which arrived shortly be-
fore noon. They we're met at the
depot by delegations from the Aiken
lodge and the Boy Scouts, and went
at once to the Thestone theatre where
those arriving on other trains during
the morning had assembled.
At noon the grand lodge meeting
of the domain of South Carolina was
called to order.
The large auditorium was filled with
visiting Knights and citizens when the
exercises were opened with an address
of welcome on behalf of Aiken lodge,
Knights OF Pythias, delivered by H.
F. Henderson. This was responded
to by George W. Dick of Sumter,
grand vice chancellor of the grand
lodge. Herbert E. Gyles, mayor of
Aiken, himself an ethusiastic Knight,
then delivered an address of welcome
on behalf of the city of Aiken, to
which the eloquent Mendel L. Smith,
of Camden, speaker of the house of
representatives, and a candidate for
governor of South Carolina, respond
ed.
The grand lodge held session i'm
mediately following the opening ex-
ercises.
Tomorrow morning the sessions will
be resumed and the election, in which
much interest centres, will take place.
A large number of Augusta Knights
of Pythias are attending the sessions
held here.
Florence was the early contestant
for the 1914 meeting of the grand
lodge and had large delegation here
but right in the cheat Of it, Florence
withdrew in favor of Chester, and the
1914 convention will go to Chester.
The visiting Knights are guests in
the homes of the people of Aiken
during their stay here. Tonight the
Knights were entertained at the
theatre where Paul Gilmore was en-
gagged by Aiken Knights to present
"The Havoc" Following the theat-
rical performance a reception was
held.

With the number of automobiles
that are being 1un in the city and
county of Newberry, it would be we'll
for all the drivers to observe the rule,
and we believe it is also law, cal
ways turn to the right"
Fortunately, no accidents of very
serious nature have happened in New
berry, but unless the people who drive
cars are more careful and more par
ticular in observing the law which
requires all vehicles to turn to the
right in meeting other vehicles, there
is danger of some serious accidents.
Another matter that should be OBJ
served by all automobilists is the
sounding of the gong in turning the
corners of the streets in Newberry.
Some of the streets are very narrow
and it has been very fortunate that
there has been no serious accident.

A New DIRECTORY.

The new directory of the Southern
Bell has been delivered to the sub
scribers at Newberry and Prosperity,
by Manager ]. J. Roach. The new
directory is attractive in appearance
and contains all the changes and cor
rections in listing that have been
made since the last dire ctory was
printed. The number of 1ev raroe IS
appearing in the list would indicate
that there are constant additions to
the number of subscribers at New
berry and Prosperity, and the teie-
phone development is continuous.
The Southern Bell has evolved a
plan whereby it furnishes telephone
service to farmers and other rural
residences on an economical basis.
AS result the telephone is now the
rule rather than the exception, on
the farm and farmers in all sections
of the State are installing telephones
in their homes. The plant of the
Southern Bell at Newberry and Pros
perity, is maintained at high state
of efficiency and the subscribers are

We notice from the interview of
Governor B1ease published elsewhere
that the Supreme court holds that it
is a conflict with the constitution for
one man to hold the Office of school
trustee and commissioner of election
We understood that the legislature
two years ago directed the attorney
general to bring proceeding to test the
question as to whether a man could
hold trusteeship of college and an
other Office, and that it was decided
that this was not an Inhibition of the
constitution. We may be mistaken
about his, but certainly, there are
gentlemen in the State, as Governor
Blease points out, who are holding
positions of trustee in State colleges
and also other positions of honor and
profit.
There are two sections of the con-
stitution relating to holding two Of
fees: one of them refers especially
to members of the general assembly
and goes so far as to state that any
man who exercises the duties of any
other position shall not be repre-

While on the train few days ago
between Newberry and Columbia, our
attention was called to an officer who
had two prisoners in charge, taking
one to the reformatory, in Florence,
and the other to the State peniten-
tiary. One was white boy about
fourteen years old, who, it was learn
ed, hac been convicted of assisting
an older person to steal a cow The
other was a negro man who had been
convicted of criminal assault and was
sentenced to twenty years in the pen
itentiary. The boy, it was learned,
had been sentenced to the reforma-
tory, in Florence, until he was twen-
ty-one.
The thing that attracted our atten-
ton was the fact that this officer had
this little boy handcuffed to the ne
gro criminal. 1t may be alright, but
somehow it did not appeal to US as
being the proper thing for the officer
to do, even though tile white boy had
been convicted in the courts, we do
not think he should have been hand
cuffed to the negro man, as he was on
this occasion. 1t may be legal to do
so, but it was not right. The boy
had a good face and an open and
frank expression and he should not
have been handcuffed to an cd Grim
inal.
