Larger Postal Savings.

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the post Office.
This is made possible by an impor-
tant amendment to the postal savings
act just approved by President Will
son. A. postal savings deposition may
: now have an account amounting to
81, 900 upon which interest will be
paid. Formerly $500 was the maxi
mum amount he could have to his
credit. This enlargement Of postal
savings facilities will be very crafty
ing to thousands of depositors who
have already reached the old $500
Limit and. are anxious to entrust more
of their savings to Uncle Sam. An
other feature of the amendment that
will avoid further embarrassment to
the public and to postal officials is the
doing away with the limit on the
! amount. that could be accepted from
a depositor monthly. Under the old
law oely; 500 could be deposited il &
calendar, month. The amendment
abolis5eg this restriction. While the
postal savings system has already
proved; a. signal success as is shown by
the fact that more than half a million
aepoitors. have over eighty million
dollars standing to their credit, still
It has fallen short Of meeting the full
demands Of the public, because Of the
restrictions which have now been
eliminated. Postmaster General Bur
leson and Third Assistant Postmaster
General Dockery have been tireless
in their efforts to secure modidca-
ton Of the limitations and the new
liberahzing legislation is particularly
gratifying to them.

Now that the city desa not have to
pay the commissioners Of public works
1920 a month for street lights, and the
recorder brings in pretty good revenue
from his court, it seems that Te should
have q little more money for street
work, but so far as we can see about
the same amount Of street repairing
has been going on for the past twenty
ysarseprsmore, and in. fact. the streets
age about Il 1 the same condition they
swsge twenty years ago. We have been
filing up holes with sand and having
it washed gut the first good rain long
enough to have paved every street in
Newoerry and we have none yet. The
money just washed back to the creek.
OF course it has given employment
to a lot of good fellows but they
would have gotten the same employ
ment if our money had been wisely
spent.

ing with the commencement of New

msncement is in the forenoon OF We'd
neaday and the press association
Raaseting commences that night. There
xs no conflict. The dates were made
to suit the invited speaker who is
coming from the Pulitzer School, OF
.Journalism.-columbia Record.
We meant no word of complaint be-
cause the press association meets, the
same week Of the Newberry COM
uencement. We had no doubt that
the committee had good reason for
changing the date. We have had
some little experience in trying to
dodge conflicting dates and know
something of what q difficult thing 1t
is.
We were just regretting that we
could not be at the meeting. NE think
that the records Will will hear out tse
statement there is mo member OF the

MOTORISTS NOW RIDE VELVET
RUHBER DIAMOND TIRES

"sinewy, springy, and strong as the
muscle-padded foot of the greyhound. i.
this tough-textured, hard-wearine
'eVelret' rubber Of 1916, stretches
like a pure rubber band over such
small and sharp obstacles on the road
as might puncture the less elastic,
and more brittle, texture Of the usual
tire treads.
'Tt therefore aDsorps most Of the
small shocks, jars, and jolts, that not
only tend to separate treads from
fabric, in ordinary tires, but that al
so cause an incessant minor vibra-
ton beyond the capacity of steel
springs to neutralize quickly enough.
eve 10 not offer this wonderfully
resilient velvet rubber, used in all
Diamond tires today, as a mere
whimsy of style, or to merely give a
SUPERFICIAL ".diaekence" in appear
ance.
"It is a new, and altogether diff
ferent, kind OF rubber, developed
through much research, from mate
rials that give most lexibility, and
most response-to-power, in tires
with a minimum of friction for maxi
mum traction While this color-com-
bination now distinguishes the ap-
pearance of Diamond tires, motorists
must not conclude that all black
treads, or all red-sided tires, are Of
velvet rubber.
"Because-any ordinary rubber can
be colored to initiate the appearance
OF Diamond treads, without in any
sense initiating the texture, compost
ton or action, OF the ''Velvet-Rubber"
in Diamond tires.
"The motorists that ride on 'Wel-
ket-Rubber" Diamond tires, even once
find a new s4tisfaction in motoring
so. springy, clingy, soundless, and
Misunderstanding are they-with a
mileage-increase that is mighty COM
forting to the pocketboo&.
Motorists in great numbers are
asking for black-tread, red-side, Dia-
moDd tires, having compared their
moderate "fair-1ist" price with what
must be paid for ordinary tires as
made by other responsible makers. "

We are pleased to see that sena-
tor McLaurin is discussing some mat
tiers pertaining to the tax question.
The legislature will pile up the as
sessments and the expenditures just
so long as it is possible without in
creasing the levy, and go to the ex-
tent of borrowing money to do it, and
then come back and tell the dear peo-
pie that the taxes have not been in
creased because the levy is the same.
And there are lot of fool people
who will swallow it at a gulp. The
expenditure of the money is what
tells. The expenses have doubled in
ten years and the tax levy remains
very nearly the same. That is the
reason we have somewhat modified
our views on the question Of requir-
ing all property to be returned at its
cash value. If the tXable property
we're six hundred million instead OF
three hundred million there are mem
bers OF the legislature who would be
willing to make appropriations and
increase useless Offices so long as it
Esapld be done without raising the
levy, and then try to fool themselves
into the belief that they had not in
creased taxes. We have Seen Great
ing entirely TOO many departments
any way. We would like to see that
lAtvof>qacers and boards printed and
what they, are receiving. 1t would
wake up the people.

Editor Aull of the NeTberry Her
aid and News says ne had two OF
three bales of cotton last fall and
put them in a warehouse and borrow
ed money at six per cent. interest
Just to find out the sensation" OF
paying six per cent. interest. Editor
Aull says he has been paying eight
and ten per cent interest SO long
that it really was diversion to be
able to borrow money at six per cent.
Well, people who have cotton to
warehouse do not constitute the only
class that is going to enjoy six per
cent. money in the South. Unless all
the signs fail. in short time busi-
ness men as well as farmers will be
borrowing for six per cent. or less.
The city Of Florence has borrowed
sixty thousand dollars from g local
bank at two and one-haH per cent
That is an indication Of plentifulness
Of money.-Rock Hill Herald.
We believe that you are correct
Our county borrowed money for the
county for less than two and half
per cent, it seems to US, and borrow
ed it from the local bank. Interest

REGARDING WOMAN
Presbyterian General Assembly Re-
aftirms DeciSiOn-Much TO
Discretion.

Orlando, Fla, May 25.-The 50th
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church in the United States today
stood solidly on its decision reached
Tuesday regarding woman's activity
in the church, cleared some routine
matters and adjourned.
The woman question was reopeoed
in form of a protest backed by about
20 commissioners and led BY DR.. W.
McF. Alexander, the retiring modera-
tor. The protest committee request
ed that its statement of disagreement
merely he filed in the records Of the
assembly, but the commissioners re-
fused to do this. voting to refer the
matter to a special committee. This
committee reported within a short
time, clearly setting forth that it was
believed the action taken was strictly
according to the Scriptures. 1t was
adopted, 11S to SO.
The protest resulted from the as
sembly granting certain privileges TO
women in the discretion of conSrega-
tons It was declared that too great
latitude was given congregations in
matter the protestants believed
should be left to the assembly. The
answer to this protest submitted BY,
the special committee follows:
"In answer to the protest signed by
w McF. Alexander and others, the
assembly expresses its regret that
any of its members should even intic-
mate that any action OF the highest
court of the church was not governed
by whole hearted loyalty to the Holy
Scriptures as the only infallfble rule
Fof faith and practice.
,'sThe scriptures may have their au-
thority discredited not merely By
violation Of their proceDts, but also
hy an attempt on the part Of ecciests-
tical courts to bind the conscience es
Gods people on matters of doubtful
Interpretation.
~Nor over 40 years requests nave
been made for delverances on #o-
mans work in the church. During
this period in home aaa; foreign mis-
sion 6eldssaeassdee euse has been made
OF their services in the very matters
complained Of. An almost painful
difference of opinion aa to the mean
ing Of the passages cited in the pro
test is manifested in the three
variant reports Of the ad interim
committee. These things combined
demonstrate the wisdom. of the action
of the assembly in declining to make
these passages the basis for detailed
legislation.
Having expouDded the settled faith
OF the church as to the teachings OK
the scriptures forbiddins preaching
by #omed, the assembly as wisely
decided to leave the question of the
service Of women in other matters to
the discretion OF the sessions.
'such action, in the judgment OF
this assembly, exalts the authority OF
the word Of God and removes the
anomaly of the church having made
deliverances, and at the same time
encouraging through. its authorized
agencies practices in violation OF
these deliVerances."

his way to Charlotte and carried it
again. He had the whole thing sew
ed up in the Democratic convention
in Columbia, according to the news
papers which are supporting him. Or
to express it according to their man
ner of saying it, he controlled the
convention" Very well. We are
glad, too, that the convention was
kind to Messrs. Clinkscales, Pollock
and Jennings. When the people talk,
who cannot be controlled, Cooper will
be the governor of the State. and the
other boys of 1914 will have some
thing pleasant to think about,
AS strange as it may seem, the
Manning people admit that Cooper
had about one hundred friends in the
convention. These voted to elect
the Manning men to the nationak
convention, and along with them they
voted for Manning. The Blease ele-
ment even voted for Manning but did
you hear of Manning showing any
disposition to send a Cooper man or a
Blease man to the national conven-
ton? Not much, they don't do things
that way. They believe in taking the
whole hog. They control" But the
people will not be controlled" All
