The Windmill
CONFINEMENT,

| WIN ir>.N 4 hIAANAs
They met thru chance, two old. old
| friends.
Where traffic Numbered nightly.
And one had tramped the worlds fol
| ends.
| And one was going homo to tea.
Before their parting ways drew each
Along to future hopes and fears
They strove TO span with awkward
speech
The broad, deep chasm OF the
| years.
The face OF one was thin and brown.
He spoke of ports and tall, proud
ships.
OF waves to Rio rolling down:
or heather girls with eager lips;
or palms and silver desert sand:
OF jungles hushed when dawn was
nigh;
OF nights upon a coral strand
While strange fierce stars patrolled
the sky:
OF flying spume and surges blue;
OF winds that swell the booming
sail;
OF rusty tramp ships pounding thru
The reaches of the endless trail.
The other told the names they gave
The wondrous children who had
come:
OF how they had contrived to save
Enough to buy a country home;
OF how fresh air had helped his
wife;
OF how the house was Allied win
sun;
or how the bold commuters life,
Was, after all, the only one;
OF how his vegetables grew;
OF how he hoed and weeded them;
OF peace, the like Of which few knew
From s at night to 5 a. m.
And when they parted, secretly
Within his heart each whispered
this:
"If could only just be he.
How very fortunate he Isl"
Hungary wants Emperor Charles
to return as her ruler. And they said
the war had taught people such a
lot!
Still It remains 10 be seen whether
II has taught Charlie, himself, any
thing.

question" says Uncle Abimelech Bo-
gardus, OF Preakness. N j., seems

IOWA OPINION AND NOTES.

The Boone News Republican points
out that THE literature sent out in
his behalf (Brookhart' 81 comes from
the Iowa Homestead and bears UNI
Unstable evidence that Jim Pierce
supporter OF Townley, Kicker, ct al
Is at the bottom OF the effort to de-
feat Cummins. for what reason we
know not. unless 1t is that Jim Pierce
is at the old game and trying to show
his power" The News Republican
concludes that mo republican news
paper in Iowa will align itself with
the Iowa Homestead. The war is
over, but its methods during those
trying times are not SO soon forgot
ten
The Perry Chief fears that IF Col.
Brookhart should win from Senator
Cummins another controversy would
result between Uncle Jim Pierce and
Uncle Harvey Inkham as to who was
entitled to the credit"
"Woodworth Clum has resigned as
alton. It Is felt in some quarters
that this will not be an irreparable
loss to the association" resisnedly
concludes the Burlington Hawkeye.
The Dubuque Times Journal thinks
TT IL highly desirable that every
voter should realize just where Mr..
Hoover stands. He is the typical in
ternationalist. In no real sense Of the
word has the United States been his
home. The warmest friends of his
candidacy are the British politicians
who gave it the initial impetus and
the international financers whose in
terests demand president who shall
be suhservient to the spirit of in
ternationalism."

cellent argument for the anti

The license ordinance recently adopt

provides for license of 81 per day for
auctioneers selling at public outcry
other than the clerk OF the court in
obedience to the order of the court"
or $40 per year for such. license. In
the opinion of The Times the amount of
this license is inadequate to afford the
merchants and others doing business
regularly in Fort Mill the protection to
which they are entitled from the COM
petition of the itinerant vendors who
occasionallyTvisit theas town, leave
quantities:of merchandise, .sold at

which probably ever will find its way
back into the channels of local trade.
The Times hopes town council will meet
at once and change the amount Of
license collected of itinerant auction
eers to sum sufficient to give those
regularly engaged In business here the
protection home industries are entitled
to.

Why Do Men Advertise?

The man who conducts his business
on the theory that it doesn't pay and he
cannot afford to advertise, sets up his
Judgment in opposition to that Of the
most successful business men in the
country. Says an experienced adyertis-
ing authority: with few years ex-
perience in conducting small business
on few thousands of capital, he as
sumes to know more than thousands
whose hourly transactions aggregate
more than his do in a year, and who
have made their millions by pursuing a
course that he says doesn't pay"
If advertising does not psy, why is it
that the most successful merchants of.
every town, large or small. are the
most liberal advertisers? If adver-
tising does not pay. business firms In
America squander millions daily. Is 1t
because they want to donate these mil
lions to the newspapers and magazine
publishers, or because they don't know
as much about business az the merchant
who says money spent in advertising is
money thrown away or donated to the
man TO whom it is paid? Such talk Ia
not worth serious consideration, but Il
recalls ths story Of the man who proved
that the world does not revolve by plso-
ing pumpkin on a stump and watching
it all night.

The Gossest Case.

Few South Carolinians will spend
much sympathy for young Kenneth
Gossett because of the fate which has
overtaken him in consequence Of the
crime he recently committed in de-
fiance Of decency and civilization. Sat
urday afternoon Gossett, convicted in
Abbeville of criminal assault, was i'm
mediately sentenced by Judge Sease to
serve forty years in the2State peniten-
tiary-the limit of the law for such
offenses where the verdict of guilty is
accompanied by the recommendation Of
the prisoner TO the mercy of the court.
This young criminal is fortunate to es-
cape the electric chair and many will
think mercy outran justice to save him
from the death his degeneracy merited.
Judge Sease has earned the thanks Of
the people of the State by refusing to
open his ears to the sentimental pleas
put forward in behalf of young Gossett.
who was not too young to wreck the life
of 16-year-old girl and should not
therefore have been too young to suffer
the extreme penalty of the law. But
with few more forty-year sentences
given white criminals in South Carolina,
inadequate though the sentence may
seem in this particularscase, there will
be a steady diminution Of crime in
the State. We may look forward 10
such fortunate condition when some
of the weak men now on the circuit
bench are displaced by strong men more
anxious to serve society than the weak
men are to hold their jobs.
