THE RIGHTS OF NEUTRALS

1t seems at last that the German
Government has decided that it is
safer to respect the rights of the peo-
pie of the Republic of the West than
to continue a course of murder upon
the open sea. 1t is now stated that
Germany is ready to disavow the act
of the commander of the submarine
sinking the Arabic carrying American
citizens, to promise punishment to
the offending officer, and to make re-
paration for the loss of American
lives. And when Germany shall have
cone this, that government will
have admitted the wanton murder of
g thousand non-combatants, of whom
more than a hundred were American
citizens, in the sinking of the Lusi-
tania; and it will be up to the Imper-
ial German government to make such
amends as are demanded by the Presi
dent of this country for the wilful
killing of American men, women AMI
children.

NEED -REFoRMAToRY
FOR GIRL PRISONERS

Greenville, Aug. 30-Albert S.
tombstone, secretary of the State
board of charities and corrections, re-
Gently made inspections of the several
penal and charitable institutions in
Greenville county: At the city stock
ade, where the county prisoners are
incarcerated pending the completion
of the new county pail, Mr.. tombstone
found three girls awaiting trial on
various charges. The condition Of the
girls was pitiable. They were but
scantily clad; there was no separation
Of the prisoners, and even the whites
and blacks mingled in the stockade
yard. This condition was caused by
the fact that the city, through cour-
tesy, is caring for the county's pris-
oners until the Jail is completed and
the stockade is therefore crowded.
Mr.. tombstone became interested in
the girls and on one of che trips to
the stockade he was accompanied by
Judge Prince, who is now presiding
owe the general sessions court in
Greenville. Judge Prince and others
interested the grand jury in the state
of affairs and as a result that body
made the following recommendation:
eve would especially request the
honorable court to present to the gov
ernor for his consideration the urg-
ent need by u county of a State in
stitution for the reformation of fe-
male prisoners who are so unfortu-
nate as to violate our laws, thereby
s%ubjecting themselves to conditions
which we believe encourages law
lessness and immortality.
"That this recommendation is re-
quested of the court that the COVER
nor may present to The general as
sembly when next convened this
Statewide need for uplifting of hu-
mainly"
The need for a reformatory for wo-
men is especially noticeable in Green
vile at this time when many women
are being arrested for living immoral
lives and when there is no place to
send them where the bent of their
lives will be changed for the better.

POINTED

True wit is always incidental-and
often accidental.
Married people make up a quar-
rel because they have to.
And the beauty of a get rich
scheme is also skin deep.
Impatient men seldom accomplish
anything of great Importance.
Not all women who are proud of
their figures are good calculators.
After accepting crumbs of comfort
some people whine for the whole bak-
cry.

We presumed that when the people
of this school district voted compul-
sorry education upon the district, they
did so because it was felt that a GER
tain percentage of the population
cared little for the education of their
offspring, and that it was the duty of
the officers of district to make such
regulations as would guarantee these
children an education. If the school
trustees of the district expected to
surrender their own judgment for the
judgment of these parents in matters
affecting the interest of these chill
dren, why have compulsory educa-
ton at all?

district, have erected comfortable
