NIGHT SCHOOL
AT ST. PHILLIPS

In many respects the most success
full night school of Newberry county
has been taught by Miss Ola BSown a.
St. Phillips. The pupils have been III
structed in agriculture several times
by Mr.. 7. NJ Mills. This school will
complete soon the tWelve-night ses-
sion planned, but may continue t.
run if the farmers and teacher do nol
become too busy preparing for plant
ing and for Field day.
Many of the most intelligent men
of the county have been members OF
the school and have given it higher
tone; while all have found that mucl
is yet to be learned from one another
from the teacher, and from books ann
bulletins. The feeling Of fellowship
and of ownership of the school has
been a greater result than the learn
ing acquired.
In spite of bad weather thirty peo-
pie have often attended, twenty-sls
have enrolled and sixteen have attend
ed On an average. Since the enroll
ment has gone above twenty, the
school is entitled to an additional
teacher. The membership is as fol-
lows:
Messrs. George Shealy, H. A
Crumpton, B. c. Banks, H. H. Ruff
C. L. Ruff, W. B. Kibler, ]. B. Lorics
L. o. Crumpton, George Wicker, A. P

The average attendance has been

THE NEWBERRY SUPPLY BILL

The Herald aud News Publishes ~
this issue the copy OF the supply OIL
introduced by our members ID the
legislature, and it Will pass as they
desire it. and We suppose as miro
duced. The levy remains tn7 same.
That is good if it would bring in sufi-
cient revenue to run the county. But
it will not and the delegation knows
it will not. 1t viii not meet the ap-
preparations they themselves make.
Then why make the appropriations
if you are not going to provide the
money to meet them. The State has
been doing the same thing for the
past few years and as a result there
is a dehcit of million and quarter
dollars. The county Is authorized
to borrow $4,000 which is not III
cluded in the supply bill and a small!
levy is made in addition to pay it
ana the interest. Inc county HAS
been running on a credit for severai
months anu now the authority is CIV
en- to borrow $4,000 to run on a!id
that is not enough TO meet the appro-
priations.
The total appropriations in the t,is
are $43,6S0.0O. A four and a half levy
will bring in about $33.000O0. TEere
is very little income apart from the
levy and how it is expected to meet
an appropriation of $4,000 with an
income of $4,000 We do not see. 1t
will be noticed that the interest item
for money borrowed is 100000 ana
every year as the debt increases the
interest charge will be more. We
guess it is good business to make the
county operate on a credit and then
borrow money at the end of the year
to meet the expense. but We can't see
it. Our representatives are good
business men and We know that We
are not.
We notice a considerable increase
in the expense Of the county boaro
of education. Heretofore the amount
has been $500; this year the bill
says $4,000. Maybe their, duties and
labors have been increased.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1917-02-13

We saw a headline IN 4 papey the
other day which said some town in
this State was planning new hotei,
but somehow it does not seem to is
that the item was from Newberry, ana
really we do not recall to have heard
even a very small noise which sound
ed like new hotel building in New
berry even with all the skyscraper
buildings we have seen built in The
newspapers. And really, it would not
hurt Newberry to have q new hotel.
II fact. we are inclined to think that
it would be a good thing, and do yol,
know that the best and the biggest
asset that Greenwood has is the fine
hotel which is hers, and the business
men went down in their pockets and
put the up the building. OF course,
building does not make a hotel, but
it goes a mighty long way, and SO fal
that even the best of hotel men can
not make hotel without a right so-t
OF building, because the comfort Of
sleeping goes as far with many peo-
pie as the comfort Of eating.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1917-02-13

And now an exchange wants the
Interstate commerce commission to
be clothed with power to regulate
hotel rates. The idea of government
control is going strong these days.
Anderson Mail. -;
Correct you are This faea has been
going strong for some time now.
1t wont be long at the present rate
before everything will be government
controlled and we all will be wo, liDs
for the government. And we will De
fed by the government. Ana then M
less history fails to repeat itself the
whole fabric will fall and a govern
ment by the people and for people
will be failure.

LITTLE GIRL NEXT DOOR.
Sensational White Slave Picture Com
ing TO Arcade.

While "The Little Girl Next Door,
which comes to the Arcade theatre for
one day, February %, Is an intensely
interesting and entertaining hhu
drama that will please every audience,
it contains a lesson that is stronger
than any sermon Every mother ana
father, it is believed. Will want their
grown up chlllrer to see it. The pie
ture makes perfectly clear the duties
OF the pare.'rs and the pitfalls of re
-gnoraDt. E0~Gye:'. there is absolute
:, nothing to nlIe2d the most .:ensi-
,ive.
As matter of fact The Little Girl
Next Door is story from life, so to
speak; for it was based upon the fino-
ings in t. report Of the Illinois vice
commission. Realizing the good to oe
@btained from the picturizing OF the
incidents contained in this repor,.
some Of the leading workers, such as
Vice President Marshall, Speaker
Champ Clark, Congressman James
Mann, Lieut.. Gov. O'Hara, Mayor
Thompson Of Chicago, and number
of other prominent officials, ministers
and social workers personally appear
in the picture In almost every case
these prominent personages gave their
idea OF the vice question, and most OF
these people figure directly or indl-
rectly in the story itself of "The Lit,
tie Girl Next Door,"
After completing a run of IL weeks
at the La Sale theatre, Chicago, Tho
Little Girl Next Door" was booked
back for another long engagement IN
Chicago, and this same record Wae
made in Cincinnati, Cleveland, San
Francisco and the other large cities
where the picture has so far played.
Probably no play or photoplay has re-
ceived such enthusiastic Endorsement
from people of all classes, and per-
haps no play or Story will serve better
to open the eyes Of the public to the
greatest of all evils. the traffic az
young girls by white slave traders.

JUST A LITTLE MORE SHOP.

We have a few names on our list
that are still in arrears for the reasoN
that they have either written or phon-
ed that there was some error anu
they would be in soon and get the
matter straight. Please attend to this
at once as we do not intend to nave
any arrears on the list. We want tu
get these off. We would prefer "
give any subscriber a year than "
cut him OFF if he had paid even two
months in advance. We always give
the subscriber the benefit of tne
doubt, so if you are one about whose
proper credit there is any question
please attend to il at once and We
will take your word for the proper
credit.
We took Off all who had not paid t.
the first of February regardless. ana
the 18th will be here after the nexl
issue, and those whose time goes oul
on the 10Th should renew this week.
because after the next issue all Who
do not and whose time is out on the
18th will get no more paper. The
price Of paper does not come down
and We must have the cash to keep
the ghost walking.
I'VE are somewhat like our Cousin
Paul Haltiwanger. When he sold on
credit he credited most any one, but
when he went on cash basis he turn
ed down an order of John L. MINI
naugh for s1.4O when Mimnaughs
order was good for round half mil
lion or more. When we were On creo-
it we would send the paper to any
one who would give US his name ana
address and promise to pay. Now
We are on cash basis and the richest
mans promise is no better and worth
no more than the poorest. 1t is the
cash and not the promise to pay that
makes the ghost walk. Every one
treated just the same.
We are going to make the best
newspaper we know how, and that Is
some paper, but We must have the
money or there will be no paper.

and it cost the State ten thousand
