DIR. Watson At St. George.

A st. George special to the News
and Courier says of the address of
DR.. E. o. Watson at the commence
ment exercises Of the st. George
high school last Tuesday night:
Logical, convincing and in keep
ing with his reputation as a brilliant
orator and deep thinker, the address
of DR.. Watson was one of the finest
ever listened to by St. George au-
dience. Prefacing his remarks with
reference to the parable of the
foolish virgins, he stressed the need
of preparedness, not only in military
and industrial affairs, but closed
with an eloquent appeal to the men,
bers of the graduating class and his
hearers generally to fit themselves
for the higher life. He spoke inter-
estingly of conditions in South Caro-
lima with respect to the boil weevil,
as well as the need of a larger army
and navy. When he spoke of the
greatness of President Wilson there
was a storm of applause"

RAYMOND BOlen in Jail.

Sheriff S. G. Ray returned to Bam-
berg Wednesday night Of last week
from Columbus, Ohio, where he went
a few days previous to bring back
to this county L. Raymond Bolen, a
young white man, who is charged
with having: committed an outrage
upon little negro girl near the town
of Bamberg, who, it is said, is under
ten years of age.
Young Bolen was arrested in Co.
lumbus at the United States army
training camp, where he had gone
after enlistment in the army at Sa-
vannah several weeks ago.
It is understood that the defense
will be that of an alibi. Young Bolen
is quite popular among large cir
Gle in the city. He is the son of Rev.
B. D. Bolen, a Baptist minister, who
has served a number of churches
around Bamberg for the last several
years.

A Good Governor.

Manning has made South Carolina
a good governor. There has been no
buster; no braggadocio; no effort to
be sensational; no attempt to be con-
tinually in the limelight; no use OF
language that CRATES upon the sensi-
bility of persons who abhor the bully
and braggart; no abuse of political
opponents. In fact we know Of but
one or two things Mr.. Manning has
done that should not meet with the
approval of the people of the State.
In one case he displayed extreme
partisanship of which we have little
doubt he quickly repented (because
it is not like him to be that way)
and in one other case we would have
preferred that he had not attempted
to play the dictator. But even then
he has been so much more conserva-
tive than what this State has been
accustomed to we feel that We can
forgive what few shortcomings he
has displayed. If other governors
before him have merited second
term surely Mr.. Manning has. To
onr way of thinking he has made as
good governor as the State has had
within our recollection.-Gaffney

National Viewpoint.

Once upon time, so the story
goes, a Frenchman, visiting the tomb
of Napoleon, wrote on convenient
wall the lines:
"'Bony' was great man, soldier
brave and true"
An Englishman coming along lit
tie later read this and added:
"But wellington did beat him at
the battle of Waterloo"
The next visitor was an American
who, seeing the foregoing contribu-
tions, rushed into the competition
with all of the restraint that charac-
terizes the members of our great ma
ton:
"But braver still, and truer far and
tougher far than shoe leather,
Was Washington, the man who could
have licked them both together"
He wrote and doubtless went away
quite satisfied with his climax.
