So he told Bunyan to get him an

TROUBLE WITH S. C. IS
BLEASE, SAYS J. A. PARK

Atlanta, March 17.-North Caro-
lima, as state, has the highest re-
GARD for South Carolina. as another
state, the idea being (says John A.
Park. publisher of The Raleigh
Times) that the only thing seriously
the matter with South Carolina is
Cole Blease.
Mr.. Park is in Atlanta, attending
the Hotel Ansley sessions of the
Southern Newspaper Publishers as
sociation, which began Monday morn
ing and will continue through Tues
day. Mr.. Park desires it known that
he. personally, had no quarrel with
Governor Blease. But he did not
mind being quoted as to his opinion,
and he even fancied that North Caro-
lima papers might entertain more dis
interested and unbiased opinions than
those of their neighbor on the south.
Two Ways to View Him.
I should say there are two ways
of looking at the eccentricities of Mr..
Rlease." said Mr.. Park, judicially.
"One is to regard him as sane and
unscrupulous: the other. as sincere
and nutty. haven't fully made up
M mind which he is but it seems to
me he must be either the one or the
other.
"Our own former Governor Kitch-
ms started bit of scatter-bone par
doning while ago. and we referred
to him editorially as a North Caro-
lima Blease.' The shaft seemed to
carry sting. and I mention it mere
ly to show that Blease is rapidly
achieving the dubious distinction of
being an epithet and term of oppro-
brium.
another mystery to me is the fol-
lowing South Cardinals governor
commands. His henchmen would start
building another Tower of Babel if
he should ask them for the moon.
His domination over his supporters is
almost uncanny-it suggests mesmer-
ism. There must be q vast deal of
personal magnetism in the man, and
it makes him all the more dangerous.
Sister State Feels Sorry.
"As to his sweeping largesse of
pardons, there are two explanations
of that policy, too. His friends say
practically nothing-they stand by
him without argument. His enemies
ere divided between two opinions
that he is gaining something by the
ciiity."
Take it all around, Mr.. Park SAYS,
North Carolina feels quite sorry for
FER sister on the south, with the gea-
etal ;'ipl ession existing that South
Carolina is an afflicted member of the
family--sufering from Blease as It
were. ~ -s-...

DAIRY INSTRUCTION
COURSE FOR UNION
COUNTY TEACHERS
met: ON SATURDAY

The Teachers Association of Union
County held its regular meeting in
the auditorium of the High School
Saturday, March ID, 1914.
While the attendance of the teach
ers was fairly good, we regret to
note the absence of so many trustees.
At our next meeting, April II, 1914,
we hope to see present every teacher
and trustee in Union county. The
life of the association depends upoi
the enthusiasm and wide-awakeness
of its members, therefore, lend us
encouragement and inspiration by
your presence.
Devotional exercises were conduct
ed by Rev. Geo. p. White, pastor of
the First Baptist church, Union, S. c.,
after which he made q short talk on
Temperance" DIR. Whites remarks
showed that the work of the eradi-
cation of the habit of strong drink
lay in the hands of the public school
teachers.
Mr.. A. c. Flora, principal of Union
High School, in an instructive ad-
dress, presented himself as the ex-
ponent of organized Athletics" "a
sound mind in sound body" is his
short but true definition of happy
life: Teachers above all Others"
said he, should exemplify perfect
health" He believes "Organized
Athletics" to be the salvation of the
growing boy-the only means by
which the excess of energy of the
growing boy may be directed into
proper channels; that it is the solu-
tion of the cigarette and drink habits;
that it develops individuality, team
unity, class unity, school unity, and,
lastly, county unity.
AS a result of the exodus from
the county, the conservation of the
health of the child is necessity if
we are to have a future race able
to cope with the problems of the day
and of civilization.
Prof. Gilstrap, principal of the
West Springs school, discussed "How
to Secure Libraries-Their Use and
Benefit" i-ssAes- al
1t was the consensus of opinion
of the association that the schools of
the county observe Field Day on Fri
day, April II, 1914. Every school
in the county is expected to partici-
pate in the events of the day, and to
send at least one contestant for the
prizes offered. -
We take this opportunity to urge
the teachers throughout the county
to be present on this occasion and to
encourage their pupils to take part in
the various contests.
The morning hours, April II, 1914,
will be spent in the work of the asso-
citation, the afternoon in athletic con-
tests. Mary c. Wharton,
Secretary.

Two Suggestive Ideas By
Two Leading Citizens of
JOneSville- Let Our
People Ponder
These Things.

Mr.. T. M. Littlejohn, president of
the Everybody's Bank, Jonesville, and
one of the largest planters, as well,
is giving out some sage advice to
those who are open to reason.
Mr.. Littlejohn is preparing a talk
to be delivered to the members of the
farmers club of Jonesville. He saws
he has found the reason for the pow
erty that prevails in our country. He
maintains that it is not that we are
lacking in industry; nor that our peo-
pie do not produce wealth, no vet
again that we lack opportunity. He
says our wealth goes elsewhere. He
mas given striking statement of
how we go to distant points for we'll
nigh every thing we use. He jotted
down on piece of paper the follow
ing items and the point that we go
to get them:
Shoes, Mass; hats, Phila.; coats
and pants, New York; suspenders,
cleveland, o.; soap, Cincinnati; cab
page, Charleston; Irish potatoes, Me-;
peer, Iexas; ham, Kansas: oats, In

and tea, Asia. lard, Illinois: eggs and
chickens. Oklahoma; ladies' hats.
gowns, etc, Baltimore and NewYork.
autos, Detroit.
We feel sure this showing will omen
the eyes of all thoughtful people.
Not half hour after talking with
Mr.. Littleiohn, the Times man called
to see another leading citizen of
Jonesville. DR.. w. o. Southard. DR..
Southland has for many years been a
citizen of Jonesville He is a sub
stantial and worthy citizen of that
community. For some time he has
been considered one of the best potato
growers in the county. He produced
seventy bushels of Irish potatoes on a
small square in his garden one year.
TO see the small square and then the
large amount of potatoes produced
thereon, it looked to be almost a
miracle. When asked about this pet
crop for this year the doctor said he
had already planted. Said he could
have sold 1000 bushels of potatoes
the past season. He says it is no
trouble to keep them perfectly sound
after harvesting them He is now
eating potatoes of the past season
which he gathered from his own gar
den and has kept through the winter.
He says it is one of the easiest crops
to raise and that the profit is good.
