1t may be premature In fact, I
know it is premature, but presume
some people go on the plan that the
early bird gets the worm. There are
alrsady a great many applicants for
the position of county supervisor
which is to be filed by Gov. Blease
when Mr.. Hill resigns to take the
postofice
In some way my name has be.n
carried over the county in connection
with this position which is to be fill
ed when Mr.. Hill resigns. How it got
started l do not know. I appreciate
the compliment of those friends from
ali sections of the county who have
come to me and expressed the hope
shat would be appointed. In order
to set myself straight with these
friends and those other friends who
are in dread lest it may be true that
1 am to be appointed dn case of a va
cancy, desire to say: 1 have not ap-
piled for the position; am not now
an applicant; 1 have no intention OF
making application; and further, [
would not accept the position if
there should be a vacancy and Gov.
Blease should offer it to me. l hope
this is clear and plain and positive.
It is very important position. One
that should be filled by the very best
business man in the county, and hope
the governor will select a good man
if he has the appointment to make.
/ am very much interested in the
Improvement of our public roads and
would be glad of the opportunity to
do something for their Improvement,
hut before much can be done we will
have to get a legislature that will pro-
vide the means for you can no more
build roads without money than the
old Hebrews could make bricks with
ont straw. I am constrained to be-
lieve the good roads spirit is on the
decline in the county. Just why lido
not know. To get good roads you
must have the good roads spirit
among the people just like you must
have the school spirit before you can
build schools. The people must be
walked up.

hard job for that negro to ke5p from
shooting craps. 1t is just as natural
for a negro to shoot craps as it is for
him to eat watermelon, and everybody
knows how natural that is.
There is no more Park station on

1t is a good thing for college stu
dents and others to keep out OF
harms way; but, paradoxical as it
may at first appear, 1t is good thing
for Newberry college students to get
in Harms way. This suggestion ls
not entirely original, but we must say
something to keep up interest IN the
college. We want Newberry college
to have next year the largst session
in its history, Hentz we welcome any
thing that is said,
How many of us go through life
with the daily acted thought "Suffl-
cient unto the day" In sense this
is right, according to the scriptures,
but carried to the extreme in many
cases. Numbers go through life in
listless way. They get up late and
drag along too lazy to have any ex-
ertion, but eat their meals and lounge
around without seeming care. Or
do they care? For it is inconceiVable
how any such should not care. But
it is the same old thing with them day
after day.
