be stubborn things, and when bnt

he should be prepared to sustain tht
assertion.

knowing that in the middle of tbe

requested, and returned with the
suggestion that the valves in khe
radiators seemed to be out OF

be provided. He took the ORDER
for the valves, shipped them to the
School Board, and on a subsequ nt
visit put a number of them in
place and showed the janitor How
to attach the remainder, which he
did. To Mr.. Devices, the plant
looked in good condition. But in
| the early part of the week, when
warmth was needed, it was fognd
that only some of the rooms COULD
be heated, which was a SURPRISE tc
the principal, the school officibls
and the janitor. An expert was
Immediately called, and the tHpu-
BILE, which is thought to be settl-
ing of the building so as to destroy
the drainage of the pipes,we hope
to have remedied so that the build
ing will be warm and comfortable
on Monday morning.
The plant was not out of ORDER,
but it could only be discovered by
starting the fires, and I would mot
be understood as criticising Mr.
Devices for failure to locate the
trouble
While discussing school problems
l would state that a new, four
room school building is needed 4foT
the town, and should be erected
somewhere in the Southern sect4on
not far from the Cross Roads. The
increased attendance this fall has
compelled the takig nof the as
sembly room at the Seminary fol
regular school work, a partition
therein having added two more
rooms, both of which are about
filled. The new building would
be a great convenience to many
children who have to make very
long walks to the present schools.
The school officials would great
ly appreciate it if parents would
teach their children to have more
respect for the school buildings and
desist from throwing stones through
the windows and otherwise injur-
ing the public school property.
Respectfully,

Republican leader Mann denounced
it as an effort to "fiim-fiam" the pub
lie. Referring to Representative
Henry as the attorney general Of the
next cabinet" and personal represen.
tative of Preisdent-elect Wilson, he
declared the rules committee chair
man apparently will be leading IN IN
spired effort to prevent consideration
of the appropriation bills so that they
might go over to the special session
of congress.
Former Speaker Cannon declared
that the states should regulate the
traffic themselves.
Representative Berger, of Wiscon-
sin, socialist, contended that all great
men from julius Caesar down to Can
non, were temperate drinkers.
Representative Sherley, of Ken
lucky attacked the validity of the bill
and Representative Rucker, Of Mis-
souri,, said he represented numerous
constituents whose homes had been
wrecked by liquor.
All amendments offered to the bill
were rejected. One of these would
have substituted the bill already pass
ed by the senate and another would
have added a penalizing clause with
fine and Imprisonment provisions,
which some members declared would
have made the measure unconstitu-
tional.

sizes from the outside. We agree exact
ly with what Mr.. McLaurin has sug-
gested. 1t was the position we took
with regard to the governors attack on
the press last year. We thought then
and we think yet that that message
should have been printed. We can see no
good reason why it should be expung-
ed from the record. AS a matter Of fact
We could never see how 1t could be eX-
plunged from the record until it had
first been put on the record. If it had
been put on the record and. expunged,
then, of course, 1t could be seen there
yet, and the integrity of the record
would have been preserved. 1t would
be for cool heads Of the future to decide
with calm deliberation, who was right
and who was wrong. The same ques-
tion is involved in the present in
stance. And why should Senator Car
Isle object to Senator Tillman's charge
that Mr.. Abney controls the senate in
the interest of the Southern railway If
he knows the charge to be untrue?
Senator Tillman's saying thing like
this does not make it so. 1t seems to
us that If we were in the senate, we
would vote to put the charge on the
record, and then pass a resolution de-
of the senator that he prove
his charge or withdraw it. We GER
tainly would not be afraid to allow the
charge to go on the record.
