The way to crush bolshevism is, obviously, to ex-
pose exactly what it is, not to drive it under the
surface or, worse STILL to induce people to believe
that some merely idiotic phase of human foolish
ness is the product of the fanatical and unbal-
anced mentality of Lenine.
"The natural way out of the whole difficulty
is to recognize the facts. The world does not
stand where it did before Armageddon, and there
is no use pretending that it does. No doubt the
Roman Catholic Bishop of Norwich, lance in rest,
riding down the rebellious peasants at North

He Couldn't Clink.

lG-DlIS.
Rumor had it that the marine
store dealer was something of miser
and two gentlemen of the Skies per-
suasion conceived a brilliant notion
to relieve him of his superfluous
wealth.
One of them was to be smuggled
into the shop in bag and placed
with other sacks filled with old iron,
and at midnight grasp the opportun-
ity to give entrance to his confed-
crate.
Up to a point the plan worked 'ad-
nirably but unfortunately the deal
er, struck by the peculiar shape OF
the sack, gave it tremendous kick.
A ten horse power howl followed,
and second later the man in the
bag was beating all records for his
liberty.
"Well, Pm disappointed in yer,
Bill" said his friend when later on
the tale of failure was tod.
''It was your own idea, too. Ere
was you posin' as old iron, and when
some one came along and just kicked
yer you 'adn't got the bloomin' sense
to clink"

to take advantage of any act OF the
legislature that may have been adopt
ed. This was an ideal situation and
the conditions were there for the es-
tablishment of real high school in
the rural district, and to build a
Ismall agricultural college in the
country. We had the promise OF
lectures on various subjects relating
to farming by members of the Clem-
son college faculty, and if we Just
could have convinced the people to
take hold of the proposition at that
time, they would have been some
eight years ahead Of the procession,
and could have had an ideal school,
because they ha6 the children in the
community and large white popu-
lation of small farmers, and such a
school would have been of great ben
eft to- the grown ups of the commun-
ity as we'll as the children. But
they would not. We have always felt
and believed that we would have
been able to carry out the project if
we had been given little more time,
but in the 1hiligig of politics our
term came to an end. The ST. Lukes
district has enlarged their school and
voted some extra taxes, but the Big
! Creek school is about the same, and
neither is doing or has done what
could have been accomplished by
uniting the two.
We need such schools in the rural
districts as here spoken of by the
Herald and Mr.. Stoddard, and in the
development of our school system
they will come. It takes a long time
sometimes to get the people to see
vision, and without vision there
can not be great deal accomplished
in any department of human endeav-
or.
We had in mind the laying of the
foundation for the kind of rural
school that Prof. Tate told us about

studying the schools of that country

Speaking about water and light
rates our residence bill for August
was, for water $3.50 and lights
$3.50. Just about half what the bill
for the office is. We are rather ex-
travagant in the use of light and
keep our real work office at home,
and use good deal Of light at night.
In other words frequently burn the
midnight oil. AS to water we would
probably have made complaint
about that, but some time ago when
we had occasion to take up the mat
ter of similar nature with Super
intendent Schumpert he very kindly
proved to US that very small
stream constantly going would let
out a considerable quantity of water,
and we are satisfied that the big wa
ter bill is due largely to defect in
the water works at the residence and
not due to an over amount of water
consumed, either for drinking or
bath, though we endeavor to do a
sufficiency of both without stint.
We mention this simply to say that
you can not always tell what amount
of water is passing through your
meter, and to say also that we did
not understand how the Greenwood
people could regulate two rates, one
fos cooking and one for lights, until
Mr.. Schumpert explained that to have
the two rates it was necessary to in
atal two meters. And to say further,
that we can not understand why it
should be right or just to have low
rate for cooking and higher rate
for lights. The lights are a more es-
sential part of our business than to
have current for cooking, because
we can use kerosene or wood or coal
For cooking, and it seems to us that
there should be as.lo rate for lights
as for cooking.
