BANNER TO BE AWARDED
AT SHILOH

A Countrywide attendance con-
test has ben organized in connec-
ton with the approaching County
Sunday School Convention to: be
held at Shiloh Methodist Church on
Sunday, August 9th, according to
Leon C. Palmer, General Superin-
tendent of the South Carolina Sun
day School Association:
At this Convention an attractive
banner will be publicly awarded to
the Sunday School having the larg-
est number of delegates lover 16
years f.age) present at the Con-
vention, in proportion to the dis
tance travelled. Under this plan, ten
delegates coming ten miles each to
the Convention count the same as
twenty delegates travelling only five
miles each, thus making it fair for
all, both near and far.
The banner becomes the perma-
nent property of the Sunday School
winning it and may be taken home
for permanent display in the, Sun
day School room.
J. R. McGee of Due West, secre-
tary of the County Association,
urges all Sunday School to mail
their reports to him.

TYPHOID FEVER

Typhoid fever is a communica.
BILE. preventable disease. BY the
strict observance of a few simple
rules this disease can surely be
eradicated. Typhoid fever is con-
tracted in only one way-that is
by swallowing some of the waste
material bowel discharges or
urine) from the body of some
one else who has or has had the
disease. These discharges find
their way into drinking water,
milk or food by means of flies or
carelessness. Safe disposal of
bowel and urinary discharges
from the human body every
where will Danish typhoid fever.
Sanitary privies. safe wells and
clean milk are the means by
which typhoid fever is stamped
out. All discharges from a case
of typhoid feyer should be thor
oughly disinfected or burned.
Inocculation or vaccination
against typhoid fever has proven
successful. However, inocula-
ton against typhoid fever should
not cause us to relax our efforts
to maintain proper sanitary con-
ditions. Typhoid inoculation.
safe and effective, is recon-
mended as one of the means of
protection of both adults and
children against typhoid fever.
Typhoid inoculaiion should be
repeated every three years.
Good health costs little.
Poor health costs fortunes.

A NINE MILLS TAX

An adyalorem state tax levy oi
of nine mills has been agreed
on by the legislature, which is the
heaviest tax rate in more than forty
years. and this rate, too. is on a
property valuation more than
double what it was a few years ago.
But, the increased state appropria-
tions made necessary by the in
creased cost Of maintaining the
state educational and eleemosynary
institutions. the appropriations for
Confederate pensions and to the
common schools makes such a tax
necessary in addition to the priviI-
ege and railroad taxes. As long as
prices of farm praducts are high
and the purchasing power of the
dollar is go small. the large appro-
tions will be necessary and the high
taxes will not be burdensome; but
o necessary appropriations
should be made. and great expend-
itures that will mortgage the peo-
ple's property to the state for the
future by heavy bond issues should
not be made now except for inn
proyements that are absolutely es-
sential to the states progress, 1t
is wise policy to pay the big
current expense bill by direct taxa
ton now, so that when the reaction
comes-a slump in values-the
people will not have vast sums to
pay in interest on bonds and to re-
tire bond issues. for the reaction
will come after awhile. e.-Greenyille

FREE SCHOOLS

The discredited Lusk committee
of New York's discredited legisla-
ture is making an attack upon the
freedom Of schools.
The committees measure pro-
yides that the Board of Regents
shall issue no license for the con-
duct of any school, institute or class
unless the regents are satisfied that
the instruction proposed to be
given will not be detrimental to
public interests.
This license is to be revoked if
the regents feel that any class is
being conducted in such a manner
as to be detrimental to public in
terests."
Education in the United States is
free. Until today no one has pro-
posed that any body of men be
given the power to prohibit teach
ing that it happens to believe is
detrimental to public interests.
Senator Lusk has everreached
himself. The bill. as he has framed
it. would give the regents power to
prevent unions from holding class es
for its members, would confer on
the regents power to suspend in
struction in any Sunday school and
to close anv public forum which
displeased them.
The result is that from widely diff
ferent sources members of the legis.
lature are being asked to vote
against the bill.-Clarksdale Reg

THINK THIS OVER

The Supreme Court of the United
States has decided that incomes
from stocks are exempt from income
taxation.
The fortunes OF our rich men are
principally invested in stocks. They
carry no great amount OF actual
cash in the bank.
These rich men, with their bill
lions of dollars worth OF stocks.
will pay no income tax on the enor-
nous revenue from those stocks.
They can. If they choose. invest
all of their wealth in stocks. there
by deriving their entire incomes
from them, and escape the pay
ment of any income tax at all.
1t costs in the neighborhood of
one billion dollars year to run the
government, and much of that
amount must be raised bv taxa
ton.
If the rich man is not to pay his
just proportion of the income tax.
who must pay it for him?
We have no editorial comment to
make on the ruling of the Supreme
Court. That tribunal is presumed
to be the fountain head of Justice,
and the law is undoubtedly as they
have interpreted it.
But the fact that the rich man is
to pay no income tax on his enor-
nous holdings of stocks causes one
to wonder if the poor man is to be
required to dig deeper and cough
harder
He has coughed much as it is

will be disseminated among the
