II 1t desires and see reflected there
Just what the individual has put into
the glass by standing before it in
the police court.
We have published several things
that we sincerely wish had never
been put into "the glass" We fear
that we will in the future publish
things that we will regret to pub
Iish. But all may be assured Of one
thing: We are going to publish the
record just as it is made. We have
no whitewash In our establishment,
and would not use it if we had.
To start now and eliminate from
the public record any case that Is
put there would be but to undo the
work Of the past six months and to
nullify the possibility Of good in the
future.
We have said mo- four times, to
four separate requests for omitting
four names from the record. "No"
stands as our answer to any such re-
quest in the future. We have nothing
to do with the making Of the record.
We will publish the record as it Is
made by the Mayor from the various
records made by individuals.

X EEP RECORD CLEAR.

AT the beginning OF the year 1920
The Courier announced that it would
publish every week a record Of the
local police court. In doing this we
have no malice toward any one. We
hope that the day will come when
there will be nothing for us to pub
lish. But when that time comes it
Will be because no laws have been
violated, no arrests made. and CON
sequently no record made In police
court for us to publish.
We started this feature" OF news

There was considerable faction In
the convention favorable to Gen.

was the request Of the association,
II they could possibly do the work.
The Job was finally returned, as it
could not be handled there for sew
eral reasons. In the first place, the
flu had them. 1t was next sent to
the Courier Printing Co.. Greenville,
In January. We were still handicap
ped because a great many Of the en-
ployees Of that company in their
printing establishment were absent
because OF sickness. and have only
recently been able to catch up with
their work.
Very few printing establishments
will take the job OF getting out min
utes for the associat tion because it
Is very unusual work, and very few
concerns are familiar with this class
Of work. 1t Is difficult to get out and
arrange minutes so that they will be
satisfactory. The printing profession
has been unusually abnormal for the
past two years, and we hope that we
are now past this abnormal condi-
ton. The minutes will lie sent out to
the churches within the next ten
days. l.. Fl. Raines, Clerk.

In the county of Oconee there
we're 36 deaths reported in the month
OF March.
Suppose as many buildings had
been destroyed by fire. each with a
value OF $4,000. The Oconee county
fires for the month Of March would
have netted a loss Of $l80,000. Thir-
ty-six fires with a loss Of $lSO,0OO
would make any county sit up and
take notice.
Suppose SO families had been
robbed OF all their possessions In the
month OF March. This county would
have gone wild.
Many OF these deaths wore of
women and children that do not have
earning capacity: but suppose that
three-tifths, or 90 in number, were
men with earning capacity: IL they
had been insured for $4,000 each,
which is the value placed on a life
by the government. there would nave
been practically no loss to the co, n

amount. the county would still lose
