AN AMERIcAN.MADE
CHRISTMAS.

Christmas novelties and espe'
cially Christmas toys have hitherto
come from abroad in large num-
bers.
This year imports are curtailcd
and the deficiencies have been
argely made up by American man
ufacturers. p
An Aferican made Christmas is
not likely to prove any the less
interesting to the Riddles.
The announcements OF the
stores show no dearth OF stocks.
They are full OF interest and espe.
cially so to the children.
There Is a ring Of patriotism
about the advertising that makes
it unusually interesting.

New York. S Underworld
Or the Hobo Life as Seen by
Rev. John A. Gray.

Of all of the good things we
have been enjoying here this
winter the lecture by Rev. John
A. Gray of New York city last
Friday night was by no means
the least. In fact the local man
agement of the Lyceum course
may rest assured that this Was
the best feature of the entire
series of entertainments. Mr..
Gray is the man who, as pastor
of the second largest church in
New York city, put on the tog-
gerry of hobo and spent three
months in the bowery among
the outcasts of society in order
to know at first hand just how
the "other half" lives. He told
Of his experience in getting work
at 5000 week and of making
the acquaintance of the bum who
was his 'pard" in hobodum.
Besides working with these
people Mr.. Gray ate with them,
slept with them and suffered
with them all of the privations
and discomforts which result
from such a life. After giving
up his first job it was a long time
before he could secure another,
and what little money he had he
divied up with his pal. His
clothes became worn and his
shoes let in the snow and for
days he had little Or no food, and
driven by desperation he resort
ed to garbage cans back OF
hotels for a square meal. He
became intimately acquainted
with those parts OF the great city
where mans life is valued at but
a few cents and where a vel
armed squad of policemen scarce
lily dare venture at night. These
hardships we're all endured d as {
servant of Christ and for the
good of humanity. The story
was told in a natural conversa
tional tone, as one man woulC
talk to another; and it Was eager
ly followed by old and young
alike. The impression left was
one of Encouragement, the
speaker admitting how almosr
impossible it is to change the
horrible conditions he had 81
vividly painted.

Board Appreciates Good Man
with 500 Raise.

The board of education met
Monday evening at the home of
DR.. Robertson, one of the mem
bers. The most important busi-
ness was the selection of su-
perintendent for next year. The
work of w. j. Guthrie has been
so satisfactory this year that he
was chosen to succeed himself
at an increase of S1OO in salary.
This seems like a wise act on the
part of the board, as Mr.. Guth-
rie is good school man and ap.
pears to be giving splendid sat.

In connection with this meet.
ing was a very pleasant social
feature which will be reported
as seen by one of the ladies pres.
enC, as IOllOWS:
Last Monday evening the
home of DR.. J. A. Robertson was
the scene of a very pleasant sur.
prise, on that most secret soci.
ciety, the school board. The doc.
tor had invited the board to his
home to transact the regular
monthly business; and his de,
voted wife decided to show how
q woman can keep a secret. Mrs.
Robertson got busy at the phone
and invited the wives of these
public spirited gentlemen to
help in the closing transactions
of business. The ladies were
ushred through the kitchen and

Municipal Court.

The municipal court is occu.
pying the boards in the main
room at the court house, with
Judge Andrews presiding.
The case of Wilson Wren OF
Peever township was tried yes
terday and he Was found guilty
of furnishing liquor to an Indian.
The jury recommended leniency
as it was so apparent that Mr..
Wren did not belong to the Grim
inal class, but had been indis-
Greet enough to buy liquor fol
his Indian neighbor, with no
thought of personal gain; and it
was this that got him into the
government dragnet.

the dominating influence and
how important it is that his in
fluence be for truth and right
eousness. The second element
in the home is the mother, and
her place and Importance is too
we'll known to need description
for it is she who makes the home
comfortable, who dispenses love
and sympathy to the sick and
disheartened and who charms
away all the woes be they big or
little. She must be praying
mother, and that, somehow. is
always expected of mothers. In
speaking of the love and rever-
ence in which the mothers ought
to be held, Mr.. Calfee put in a
word for the father who also has
need of consideration, sympathy,
love and respect. After reciting
Will Carleton's pathetic poem
Over the Hills to the Poor
house" the speaker concluded
his talk by speaking of the third
element in the home, the child,
who holds in his hand the power
to make heaven or hell in the
home, the opportunity of be
coming blessing or curse to
the family. The young people
were earnestly entreated to con.
slider their Importance in the
family and the ways in which
they were repaying the toll,
sacrifices and love of theil
parents.
The music of the Afternoon
was lead by a large chorus choir
and Mrs. P. H. Brown delighted
the audience with a beautiful
solo. Miss Hannah Rask was
accompanist.
Mr.. Calfee will speak agai1

that | did not SEQ the afternoon pa
per and consequently did not know
until Friday morning what had been
said at the campaign meeting on
Thursday. AS soon as | saw on Fri
day morning the certificate set out in
The State purporting to have been
read from the platform by Governor
Blease | imediately sent my father,
DR.. James Mcintosh. and friend to
the governors office to request that
he send the certificate to the Knowl.
ton Hospital by his private secretary,
Mr.. Aull that might have an oppor-
tunity Of seeing and inspecting It, Mr..
Aull told these gentlemen that the
certificate was not in the office, but
that Governor Blease had 1t in his
pocket at the Lexington campaign
meeting. but that he would obtain it
and that 1t would be in the governors
office on Saturday morning.
On Saturday morning, on applica-
ton at the governors office. Mr.. Aull
told my father DR.. James Mcintosh.
that Governor Blease had come to the
city Friday night but had not como
20 the capitol and consequently he
had not secured the original certif-
cate.
The only certificate signed in this
case bears date Of January g. 1912,
that being the date Of our visit to the
South Carolina penitentiary and Of
our examination of R. A. Richey. 1t
was prepared and signed in the office
of the South Carolina penitentiary I'M
mediately after our examination. It
is written with pen and ink and is on
one Of the letterheads Of the South
Carolina penitentiary. 1t Is in my
handwriting, and it contains no rec
ommendation Of pardon or parole. It
was signed by both DR.. Knowlton and
myself, and I understand that 1t was
turned over by DR.. Knowlton to Mr..
w. R. Richey.
When this true certificate is pro-
duced / will identify 1t and will stand
by its statement And this Is the
only certificate that I have ever sign
ed In the Richey case. Unfortunately,
there is no copy Of this certificate in
existence to my knowledge-we made
no copy of it that afternon, and have
not seen the original since.
This certificate as written by us
was not satisfactory to Mr.. W. r.
Richey, and on several days subse-
quent to our examination various
typewriter notifications Of our GER
tihcate were submitted to DR.. Knowl-
on and myself for our approval and
signature. Each Of these, after read
ing carefully, returned unsigned, as
In my opinion they did not cover the
case properly.
The certificate published In the
newspaper as having been read by
Governor Blease. purports to be writ
ten on the letter paper Of the Knowl-
ton Hospital and bears the date OF
January 10. 1912, whereas the only
certificate I signed was written on
letter paper Of the penitentiary and
bears date Of January 8, 1912. The
certificate set out in the newspaper
Is not the true certificate: did not
sign it and any signature thereto pur-
porting to be mine is not genuine.
(Siged) James H. Mcintosh.
The governor, after this statement
was issued. sent the original state
ment to the hospital for inspection
by DR.. Mcintosh. The physician
stated that he did not sign 1t, and said
that it was a clever forgery.
