sible, and the wise plan is to be fully
prepared for anything.
A simple and most effective way has
been devised for eluding the grasp of
fear stricken drownGrs. 1t should be
learned by all. because it has the dou-
BILE advantage of furnishing an effort
less means of escape and also of CIV
ing mastery of the situation at the
tame time. Here Is what to do: AS
soon as the struggler raises an arm to
take hold Of you thrust out quickly
your own hand and place it squarely
under the uncovered armpit; then use
this secured purchase to push your
self under water, turn sideways, pass
under the uplifted arm and come up.
You will find yourself behind your
man, able to apply any n Of several
practically u~nbreakable grips.
Should 1t happen, however, either
through carelessness or unexpected cir
cumstances, that you are caught and
imprisoned 1t is an excellent plan not
to start fighting at ono for freedom,
but to relax completely and remain alb
solutely motionless for a few seconds.
Not only does the cessation Of all move
ment cause an instructive loosening Of
muscular tension on the part of the
attacker, but it permits the c%oncentra-
ton of energy for a supreme effort.
The holds n is most likely to en-
counter are dealt with as follows:
When seized by the wrists raise the
hands swiftly. then jerk them down
and out with a violent rotary motion.
If encircled by the others arms around
the shoulders throw up your own arms
suddenly. wide at the sides. or rest
your hands wherever possible and force

Governor Mannins's Message.

Governor Richard |. Manning
in a message to the South Caro-
lima legislature which met in
annual session at Columbia Tues
day at noon. recommended that
the state provide for board of
conciliation empowered to take
testimony under oath and act as
IN arbitral medium in labor dis
putes, advocated amendment of
the child labor law raising the
age limit from IL to ID years,
stressed what he termed the
necessity for legislation in be-
half of the worker, particularly
women. and urged passage of a
workmen's compensation act.
The governor also recommended
that agriculture be made a part
of the common school curriculum
stating III this connection that
South Carolina will sooner or
later seriously feel the effects of
the boil weevil and that crop
diversification is necessary.
Governor Manning touched on
the liquor question only in stating
that the new laws should be
rigidly enforced.

The Editors Job.

Once in a while somebody gets
the idea that the reason the local
paper does not report every scan-
dal that comes to public knowl-
edge is because the publisher is
afraid. That's not the reason.
The reputable newspaper, espe-
cially in small town, where
everyone is a neghbor to every
one else, takes no delight in Civ
ing publicity to those things that
have brought disgrace to some
family or a heartache to some
wife or mother.
1t is much more pleasant to
record the good things that
happen, to tell about the Incl
dents that tend to make life
more endurable and that uplift
rather than tear down, that
bring JOY instead of sorrow,
pride instead of heartache.
So if you don't always find in
the Advertiser the delectable bit
of gossip that would doubtless
make good reading" and if
you are inclined to blame tho
editor because he doesn't print
all the news, consider that some
home has had enough worry
over unfortunate happenings and
that the gossip and scandal
mongers of the community can
and will gladly and 9houlishly
give sufficient publicity to the
details to satisfy the lowest
tastes.
incidentally it might be re-
marked here that the most COM
plant of censored news comes
from people who have had in
their lives some things they are
glad were not given newspaper
publicity. -Sharpsville (Pa.) Ad-
vertiser.

have no regard for the: peace of
the country. This statement is
significant, and only adds to the
argument that the congress of
the United States should tighten
up on the law permitting foreign
ers to land on American soil. A
majority Of those who come here
from the old country are of the
ignorant pauper class who are
more inclined to create trouble
than to help our country be a
better place in which to live.

In Fact.

Editing a newspaper is a
pleasing business-if you can
stand it.
If subscribers want to bawl
out anybody-the editors the
goat.
If the town is tagging behind
and people won't get out and
make things hum-it's because
the town paper is on the bum.
If business is bad it's because
the editor wants too much money
for his advertising space.
If business is good-a advertis-
ing hasn't anything to do with
it. but conditions are right.
If we print what pleases peo-
ple-that is our duty and we
deserve no credit.
If we print what is displeasing
we are a crouch and a crepe
hanger, and don't deserve the
patronage of the public.
If we print the news as it is
actually people call us over the
phone and tell US to stop their
paper.
If we garble it they tell us
we are subsidized by the cor
porate interests.

pleasing business it is notl
