President Harding and his cabinet

from any debtor government except
where they had borrowed more from

The Treasury department, during

Judge Kinnaird Acting Clerk.

AS the Office of clerk of court is
one of the most important Offices in
the county, the statutes provide that
in the event of vacancy in the office
of clerk of court, on account OF
death, resignation or from any other
cause, the judge of probate shall at
once become the acting clerk Of court
and discharge the duties of the Of
fcSe until an appointment is made by
The governor. In compliance with the
mandatory terms of this act, Judge
of Probate w. T. Kinnaird assumed
the duties of clerk of court Saturday
and will serve the people in that ca
pacity until a successor to the Ia
7nented w. B. Cogburn is appointed
and duly qualified.
A considerable number of people
are under the impression that when
Mr.. Cogburn's successor is appointed
he will be commissioned for the re-
mainder of the four-year term, or
until 1924. This is not the case. The
act clearly provides that the govern
or shall appoint some one to serve
until the next general election, which
will be November 1922. This being
the case, the person who succeeds Mr..
Cogburn by appointment will serve
only. about year and half. The
office will be put in the primary next
summer in order to fill the remaining
two years of Mr.. Cogburn's four
year term.
The county chairman has called a
meeting of the County Democratic
Executive Committee for Monday,
July. IL to decide whether or not an
election shall be ordered to recon-
mend person to the governor for
appointment. Should the committee
decide not to order an election, the
delegation will make a. recommenda-
tion to the governor, as they recent
ly did in filling the Office of mag
istrate at Edgefeld.

Miss Florence Minis Sees the
Beauties and Wonders of
Yellowstone Park.

Dear Advertiser:
'What is So rare as day in June"
in Yellowstone Park? Nothing, for
the person who loves the great out
of-doors.
/. 1 have made mid-year resolution
to use as few adjectives as possible
in this letter, for descriptive words
are such paltry things, unless they
are used with more consummate skill
than can command. Facts about the
Yellowstone Park are sufficient with
eout fancy.
As far back as the time of Thomas
Jefferson, the Park had its first begin
ming, being set apart on account of
its wonders as national reservation,
but it was unprotected by laws and
yunadorned by any hotels or luxu-
rious accommodations.
The present generation, restless,
and fnacially comfortable, has out
grown the stage coach and the early
hotels which lie unused because they
are not quite perfection. Some day
.aeroplanes may startle the native elk
from their forest haunts. For my part
I prefer to look up to the mountains
and the trees, rather than to look
down on them.
1t is interesting to watch the diff
ference in the vegetation which grows
along the mountain sides, and that
which grows in the lowlands. The
frs and pines which grow on level
ground are wide and branching; ac-
cepting hardy existence without eff
fort, while the trees that find their
:sustenance along the mountain sides
are SO tall that one has to look sew
,eral times, each gaze higher than the
last, to see the fine pointed tips. They
have to reach higher to find the light
and like people, grow more perfect
through facing the obstacles of ex-
istence successfully.
Perhaps the most famous curiosity
in the Park is the Old Faithful Gey-
ser, which to me seems to have hu-
man characteristic, because it ex-
hibits so much promptness in its ac-
tion, as though it had systematic in
telligence.
The Old Faithful Inn is situated
only few hundred feet from the
geyser. I rushed out post haste on
arriving to see this water which is in
teresting because of the upward di-
rrection which it chooses to pursue. A
preliminary warning took place about
