PARCEL POST MAY
HELP TO CUT COSTS

Washington, May 1.-Declaring
that the parcel post may become an
important agency in reducing living
costs, fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Blakslee asked the senate
today to repeal laws prohibiting the
sending of matter by parcel post
within a so mile radius of the office
of origin.
The request was made in letter
sent to the senate in response to
King, (Dem. Utah) concerning ques-
resolution of inquiry by Senator
tiona;res recently sent to farmers
regarding the transportation Of food
by parcel post.

environment as you admit is to be
found in this town. We know that
Editor Greene would desire that his
son Bill should be educated in just
such an atmosphere as may be found
at Due West, where there is rever-
ence for law and order and where
there is respect for the things that
are true and beautiful and that
stand for good honest upright citi-
zenship. Only that more of our col
leges and higher institutions Of learn
ing were set amid such surroundings
an denvironments. 1t would mean
more for the citizenship OF our State.
What makes a good town? 1t is
not numbers, nor wealth nor learn
ing mainly. But the integrity and
the honesty and the manhood and the
womanhood that is true and pure
and that live in the fear of the Lord
and obey and follow. His precepts and
do the things which are right and
proper to be done.-Newberry Her

of the trying parts of the newspaper
game, we hope to find time to take
up this task. We are sure by diving
into these files we may be able to
find many facts that are interesting
to the people even of the busy and
material age.
And somehow we feel that it
would be helpful to take the mind off
so much mony making and dwell up
on the great facts of interest in our
own history.
In glancing over one installment
of this collection of facts concerning
Abbbeville of long ago we find this
statement: "The contract TO build
the Episcopal church awarded tc
Blease and Baxter, Of Newberry
$4,000. Spire to be 130 feet" That
was in 1859. This church building
stands in Abbeville today and the
spire must be the limit set out in the
contract. We never knew that th'
building was erected by NewberrI
firm until we read this statement.
1t also stated that the population
Of the town of Cokesbury IS TAB, o

day is not even incorporated an

ABBEVILLE LONG AGO

The Greenwood Index-Journal pub
lished an article from the Press and
Banner of May, 1884, which gives a
review of the history of Abbeville
from 1859 to 1884 as taken from the
files of the paper Of course the items
are short but some Of them very
interesting. In fact all of them are
interesting to some persons. What
would interest one may not interest
another, but there will be some one
interested in all of the items Of the
long ago.
We have had in mind for some
time of doing the same thing for
Newberry. We have the files of the
newspapers published in this town
back to 1s49 or along about that
time. Our labor for many years has
been so exacting that we have not
had time for this sort of work, but
now that two of the Aull boys are
with US and have relieved US Of many

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no ono can

though, at home is mussy and trouble
some. At little cost you can buy at
any drug store the ready-to-use prep

other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" You Just
da1npen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair
taking one small strand at a time.
By morning all gray hair disappears,
and, after another application or two
your hair becomes beautifully dark
ened, glossy and luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis
grace, is a sign Of old age. and as we
all desire a youthful and attractive
appearance, get busy at once with

A GOOD TOWN

Prof, Edgar Long was down from
Due West yesterday, he brought the
news that the people in that good
town were still peaceful and prosper
Gus. He told US th& the old Town
Council went out of Office last week,
and that new set of officers took
the places of those whose terms had
expired. In a period of one year not
a single infraction of the law had
been charged against anybody. There
had been no fighting, no disorderly
conduct, no swearing (although there
is a printing Office in the town. no
gambling, no turkey-stealing and no
body had exceeded the speed-limit.
And Due West has no policeman
either. All of this speaks we'll for
what Capt. Billy Smith was accus-
toned to call the Holy City. Not
many other places, if any, can shoN
a record like this.-Abbeville Press
and Banner.
The above is from a recent issue
of the Abbeville Press and Banner.
And Just to think that Editor Greene
of the Press and Banner and Elder
Hemphill of the Spartanburg Jour-
nal had the nerve to suggest that
Erskine college should be moved from
4 town like this.
This statement is but further con-,
firmation of what we have said all
along that Due West was an ideal
town for a college, and as seat of
learning it has no equal on the globe.
Can you name another town with
such excellent environment and
where the atmosphere for law and
order is so pure as in this good town
of Due West. How could you then
even entertain the suggestion that
the Erskine college should even think
for moment Of changing its location
even though you should throw mil
lions Of dollars in the Golfers? They
could not even compare or stand for
:. moment in the balance with such
