WHEN TO QUIT ADVERTISING

When the grasshopper ceases to hop
And the COW quits bawling,
When the fishes no longer flop,
And the baby stops squalling.
When the dunner no longer duns
And the hoot owl quits hooting.
When the river ever ceases to run,
And the burglar stops his looting,
When the vine no longer twines
And the skylark stops his larking
When the sun no longer shines
And young men quit sparkling.
When the heavens begin to drop
And the old maids stop advising.
Then-it is time to shut up shop
And quit your advertising.

GOVERNMENT SEEKS AC-
COUNTANTS AT GOOD SALARIES

Washington, D. c., Feb. l>.-The
Government has some big tasks in
accounting and auditing on it's hands
as a result of the war, and is willing
to pay good salaries to men and wo-
men who are qualified to perform
them.
The Income Tax Unit of the Bu-
reau of Internal Revenue, Treasury
Department, is in urgent need of $50
travelling auditors and resident audi
tors for the higher-grade positions,
which pay entrance salaries from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year.
The Ordnance Department of the
Army needs at once $50 senior cost
accountants at entrance salaries from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year, and $50
junior cost accountants at $1,000 to
$4,000 year.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion wants so examiners of accounts.
These are usually appointed at en-
trance salaries from 1900 to $2,100
a year, the high-salaried positions,
paying from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year or more, being filled as a rule
by promotion.
All Of these positions are open to
both men and women, except posi-
tions Of examiner Of accounts in the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
which are open to-men only.
The United States Civil Service
Commission will receive applications
for these positions at any time until
further notice. Ful information and
application blanks may be obtained
by calling upon the secretary of the
local board of civil-service exami-
ners at the customhouse or post Of
flee in any important city, or by COM
municating with the United States

laws the court for two or three hours
He suggested as a remedy for this
that the Grand Jury be filled from
the members of the petit jury pres
ent. and that the extra venire should
be drawn to fill the petit jury, which
would not delay the court.
The suggestion is good one. AS
stated by the Circuit Judge some
two or three hours of time are lost
at the first session of every term in
the beginning of the year. Not only
is the time lost, but it gives the court
anything but a business-like appear
ance to sit idle for this time. 1t en-
courages the belief that the object
of the court is not to attend to busl-
ness and get through with it, but
that it is subject to all kinds of fool
ish customs and practices which DO
not make for the proper respect OF
a tribunal of justice.
We are glad that the Grand Jury
recommended to the members of the
General Assembly from this county
that the suggestion be enacted into
laws. 1t is true that the matter is
not of serious Importance, but it is
of sufficient Importance to be at
tended to, and the enactment of a
law embodying the suggestion will
meet with approval.

rid of most of the Objectionable
things about the art, and have the
pleasure of finishing the work in con-
siderably less time. With an even
temperature, many of the things
which perplex and annoy, when US

Mr.. Hix is still taking orders for
these stoves and ranges. If you have

of those who have tried it out.

of the excellent report Of the chap

for being 100 per cent for Tilloloy
was read. Also one from Mrs. j. c.

FRIDAY, MARCH Z, 1919.
OFFICERS SALARIES.

At the recent session of the Gen
oral Assembly a law was proposed
recurring all officers in the state 70
keen an account of all amounts re-
ceived by them as salaries and 1ees'
which account was to be open to pub
lie inspection.
For some reason the law was not
made applicable to certain coun1les'
and it is now feared that 1t Will
prove a dead letter for the reason
as stated, that such law is void
unless made applicable to all coun-
ties alike.
Without reference to whether the
law can be made applicable to one
county and not another, and the con-
stitutional objections on this ground,
we believe that the law should have
been passed. Most of the county Of
ficers are paid salaries, and the peo-
pie know just what they are receiv-
ing. Some are. paid fees, and the
people who elect these officers, and
who in the long run pay the salaries,
should know what these officers are
receiving. We do not know that any
Of them in Abbeville are receiving
N much as their services are worth.
In the Clerks Office, where fees are
paid, there is a great deal Of work,
which can be done only by compe-
tent persons, and the Clerk is forced
to have assistance in doing it. We
doubt whether the fees which he re-
ceives are sufficient to employ as
much competent help as he employs,
but whether it is or not, we take it
that the present clerk would have no
objections to the people knowing
how much he receives out of his Of
fee.
The same may be said of the Pro-
bate Judge. He receives nothing but
fees, but the people of the county
pay these fees. If they are not suf-
ficient to pay a proper salary, the
people have a right to know it, and
in view of the fact that the fees
which he formerly received have been
added to in recent years, it is but
proper that the people, whose servant
he is, should know the full amount
received by him. AS the law now
stands he receives a certain amount
for issuing marriage licenses, a GER
tain sum for every quart of liquor
purchased by a sick man, a certain
sum for taking his affidavit therefor,
if he takes it, as well as the fees
pertaining to his Office properly. 1t
would not be a great deal of trouble
for him to keep an account of these
amounts, and to keep them separ-
ately so that the people should know
just what he does receive.
When the facts are known, we
have no idea that any man in Able
vile county, holding public Office,
will be found to be receiving even a
just compensation for the work which
he performs in his office. The keep.
ing of the accounts, therefore, will
serve no other purpose with US than
to let the people know this, and to
keep down charges that these officers
are receiving much more than they
should receive. In some counties
the reverse may be true. Whatever
the facts in any county, the public
which foots the bills, has right tc
be informed.
