On September II was the first
scoring day for the butter contest.
Only four pounds were submitted for
scoring. Those average a good
sample of the butter NeWberry coun-
ty can produce. So home demonstra-
ton and canning club members work
with me and lets put Newoerry coun-
ty' first among the counties Of South
Carolina in production of mere and
better milk and butter. This contest
is being carried on in other counties
of the state and is proving success
full. In one county SO pounds were
submitted for scoring on one day.
It isn't too late to enter the con
test and compete for the highest
prizes. Send in your butter; if you
have customers il town. it will be de-
livered to them after the scoring.

returned as desired.
Our next scoring day will be Sep

1928, many growers in San Gabriel

NATURAL BRIDGE cELEBDATloN
MARCH 9Th

We left Tallahassee about o'clock
in the morning in automobiles for
Natural Bridge. Plenty Of automobiles
were furnished and we had a pleasant
ride, except it was very cold. We
found good many people present
the cold they had built large fire
when we arrived, and on account of
and were trying to keep warm. To
the old soldiers who were engaged in
that fight it was quite revelation
to see the wonderful changes time had
wrought since 1865, fifty-five years
to the day since the battle was fought.
The two monuments were erected
by Comrade j. B. Fletcher, assisted by
Mrs. George w. McKeown. The first
one erected was dedicated the 4th of
July, 1919. These monuments are
erected one on each side of the road
where the artillery was stationed on
the morning of the fight, the artillery
being a section of Houston's artillery
two guns.
We had fine speeches by General n.
A. Bitch, Comrade Fletcher, H. Clay
Crawford and Judge w. HI. Ellis. At
the conclusion of the speech by Judge
Ellis the monument was unveiled. On
account of the inclemency of the
weather the balance of the speakers
did not make any talks. The other
veterans present who had intended
making talks were Mr.. w. 3. Nc
Gahagin, Commander of Marion Coun-
ty Camp No. Sc, Ocala, Florida, and
Col. w. A. Rawls, of Pensacola, Flor
ida. However, they declined to make
speeches as the weather was so I'M
favorable and they were all getting
so cold.
At the close of the speaking every
body was invited to spread their din
ner on tables. We had bountiful
dinner Plenty of fresh fish furnished
by Captain Rhodes were fried.
After dinner the writer visited the
battle field, but on account OF the
many changes. he only found few
evidences of the battle fought fifty
five years ago. The old breast works
that were erected on the morning CT
the fight are still visible. The Yankee
breast-works on the opposite side of
the river are still there
After dinner the old veterans were
asked to stand in line and were count
led. Twenty-Five were present, twelve
of whom were in the battle

For these reasons the department

RETURNING OLD BURROWS

John Spargo In a recent address
commented on the tendency Of believ.
ers In one idle theory to promptly
adopt the next that comes along. 1t
is weakness of human nature that
deserves more study On the other
side thee is a part of the public by
whom every theory, new to them, is
promptly scorned and who insist on
| going through life in the same
smooth-worn ruts trodden by their
immediate predecessors.
Students OF history are aware that
there Is nothing new under the sun"
except possibly In scientific and indus
trial var .ations. There has been no
new governmental or political theory
advanced in the three or four thous.
and years since history has been writ.
ten. The pet remedies of every radi.
eel every conservative. and every
compromise group have been IL ged
and exploited over and over again.
II is unpopular in the schools and
colleges to urge the teaching OF anc-
lent languages. ancient history and
old time political economy. yet there
! is where the truth is most often to
be found. There is ha dly an issue OF
modern government or economic life
that is not intelligently discussed
and often logically settled by the
pagan philosophers Of ancient Greece.
The radicals of the present day
might we'll read OF the disaster that
overwhelmed their predecessors in
! Literally thousands Of cases told OF in
authentic books Of histoy. The ex-
IRENE conservative can find in the
same books the story of his ultimate
fate. 1t may not in these times be
quite so spectacular as when he was
burned at the stake by the Cloths or
the Yandals, but it is eventually just
about as sure
The final test OF government is the
safety OF the minority, whether that
minority be the rich and the titled or
the poor and the weak. Any other
form of government is doomed and
doom moves faster in these days OF
motor cars and airp!naes than II did
IN the epochs OF oxen and camels--
IN the years when earth was young.
1t IS probably too much to expect
the noisy human parrots Of dazy day
d cams TO take time to read history
but the rest OF the people who are ex-
posed to both dangers, excess and
dry rot, should occasionally lay aside
the prettily printed pages OF modern
literature and read the ancients
Human nature hasn't changed
