The extension department of the
University of South Carolina has
had printed map showing the white
illiteracy of South Carolina. New
berry county is one among eight
counties in the State which shows an
illiteracy among the white people
over ten years of age of less than five
per cent. The other seven are: Edge
field, Sumter, Calhoun, Orangcburg,
Bamberg, Beaufort, Charleston. There
are sixteen which show an illiteracy
of between and 10 per cent. among
the white people over ten years of
age. There are nineteen with an
illiteracy above ten per cent.
That is pretty good showing for
Newberry but there should be less
than one per cent. There is really
no excuse in this day for any one to
be illiterate, that is unable to read
and to-wr;.e his or her own name.

OUR EXCHANGES.

There once was. a time i'm the jour-
nalism of this State when the good
custom of exchanging with your con-
temporaries prevailed, and we always
enjoyed and were benefited by read
ing what the other editors had to say,
and felt that we could make a bet
ter paper for our own readers, but
the new order of things seems to have
changed that good old custom, and
now there are papers which refuse to
exchange with some other papers. The
excuse is of course the high cost of
print paper and the high cost Of
everything else. This may be good
place to start the reduction of ex-
pense, but we have never believed
that it was.
The Columbia State, the Greenville
News and the Greenville Piedmont,
the Spartanburg Herald and the
Spartanburg Journal have cut US off
their list, but the good old News and
Courier and the Charleston American
and the Greenwood Index-Journal and
the Daily Mail of Anderson remain
with US and we get along fairly we'll.
Then there are a great many OF the
papers that print twice week and
once week that do not exchange as
they once did. 1t may be that they
do not care to have The Herald and
News, or it may be step toward con-
serving news print paper, but what
ever it is it is mistake. It is help
full to any editor in his work and fits
him the better to serve his own people
if he can read and know what the
other people in the same state are
talking about. The trouble with too
many of the editors of the big dailies
is that they do not get out among the
people often enough, and thus they
fail to feel the great public pulse and
to know what the people are thinking
about, and to get the trend of senti-
ment. Not that they should do this
in order to follow the crowd, but by
knowing these things they are in much
better shape for. leadership.
We remember on one occasion Mr..
A. B. Williams who was then editing
the Greenville News said to US that
he always read the country CORES
pondence in the weekly press, and in
this way he could find out the trend
of thought of the fellow away back
in the country, and could find out his
troubles and his wants and was then
in better position to help him and
could the better edit his paper. And
there was no better or more able
editor on the press of this State than
A. B. Williams.
We are led to make these obser-
vations by receiving copy of the
News and Press of Darlington with a
request to exchange. 1t is copy of
the Special Dollar Day Edition Of this
paper. 1t is a very fine edition and
we have read it with interest. And
we note that our old friend Of the
good days that are gone, J. Ed. Nor
ment, is the editor of the paper. A
long time ago he was connected with
the News and Courier, but we had
not heard from him in many moons
and we had concluded that he had
gotten rich over in that fine Pee Dee
section and had retired from such
laborious work as one finds on the
newspaper. But we are greatly
pleased to see his name on this paper
as It's editor, and we shall be very
Glad TO have the News and Press on
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1920-05-07

our exchange list, and in fact all the
state papers. Such an arrangement
would be helpful to all the editors
and thus be helpful to all the people
of the State. But we are doing
pretty we'll now, thank you, and II
it suits the other fellow not to eX-
change we will not complain.
