\NN after according to an
announcement by Maj.
Gen +. c. Harris, the Adiutant Gen
eral of the Army, a man may enlist to
study music who has had no musical
training, whatsoever. Army trained
bandsmen find so many opportunities
in civil life today that the regiments
have great difficulty in keeping their
men, once they have become finished
musicians and have had their tenn
permanent we'll ordered and disciplined
by their army experience. A tremen-
dous demand exists for their services
in factories and industrial plants,
where easy jobs at good pay are wait
ing for army musicians There they
are Immediately assigned to the band,
now an important part in welfare
work among large corporations.
Today the army will take any man
and teach him the instrument to
which he is best adapted, or the one
which he may desire The young fell
low who yearns to learn march music
and jazz, will be sent to the Seventh
Recruit Depot band, Columbus bar
racks Ohio, where preparations are
now being made to train two hun
dred musicians for the army, under
my direction.
l may say that here the road to
finished musical education lies open
to any man with musical training, tai
ent, temperament, or aspiration. For
the finished musician there is the prob
able opportunity that he will be able
some time to organize and conduct
his own band-the goal that beckons
every bandsman who has the truly
musical spirit.
To those men whose training is in
complete, or whose main quality is mu-
steal talent and a desire to develop it,
the army holds out inducements that
cannot be approached in civil life.
These men may be accepted for enlist
ment in any fighting branch of the
army they desire. They come to the
Columbus recruit depot for enlistment,
and here they are Immediately tested
as to their musical ability or capacity
to receive instruction.

COMING CONFERENCE OF
UNIONISTS AT LIVERPOOL
WILL BE IMPORTANT EVENT

London, Nov. 12.-Political interest
in England centers upon the annual
conference of the Unionist party to
be held at Liverpool next week under
the Craftsmanship of Lord Derby. Po-
litical correspondents have limited at
a split of the party. with the forma-
tion Of an independent conservative
party under the leadership of Andrew
Bonar Law. former government leader
in the house Of commons.
Much of the situation hinges on Mr..
Bonar Laws attitude toward the Irish
peace negotiations, in which he is
represented as espousing listers
cause. An article in the Yorkshire
Post. sscribad to Mr. Bonar Law,
urges that the Unionists, by all their
p edges in the past. are bound to
support Ulster If she refuses to make
any more concessions.

DURING WEEK

New York, Nov. 12.-Operations in
the financial markets this week were
naturally much curtailed in volume
and scope in consequence of the OBJ
servance of two holidays. but an I'M
dertone of quiet optimism ruled.
This was especially noted in the in
vestment situation, many new domes-
tic offerings, chiefly of a municipal
character finding a ready market be-
cause of their attractive terms.
The recent spectacular rise in Lib
erty bonds, Victory notes and many
of the foreign war issues, as well as
domestic rails sustained an irregular
reversal, however selling for profit
by speculative. interests, giving mo
nentum to the reaction.
Advices bearing on the general in
lustrial and business situation were
encouraging in the man. The large
decrease of tonnage reported by the
United States Steel corporation fol
October suggested, however. a con
inuance of uncertain conditions il

DAYS OF THE WOLF ARE
NUMBERED ACCORDING TO
A GOVERNMENT REPORT

Washington, Nov. 12-The wolf is
gamely making his last stand in
America. Bloody fanged from cattle
growers stock, and fighting for his
existence against the best traps,
rifles. poisons and hunters, he has
been cut down in number, until today
it is estimated by the United States
Biological Survey, that in the western
states, his last refuge, there are prob
ably hess than five hundred.

pure superstition.

DEDICATION OF TIE SILVER
STREET METHODIST CHURCH

O. NJ Buzhardt in S. c. Advocate.
Silve:str2e5 is q small town on the
Southern railroad, eight lniies west OF
the town Of Newherry. The :Ictno-
dist church at s:!veEstreet was ded;-
Gated on the II Sun6a; in Januar!,
Rev. W. r. 9oukn;ghC, a former pas
ter, preaching the dedication scE-
mon. Rev. S. c. Morris INTRODUCES
Methodism into Si.evrst:eet eight
years ago when he served the New
berry circuit. He did this in the face
of discouragenaents and ! know that
he will be GLAD to learn that the con-
gregation has been housed. It Is a
consummation devoutly TO be wished
that a congregation worship in its
own house. Two othar denominations
have churches IN Silverstreet and one
Of them has a resident pastor. But
there is mission for Nethodisia in
this community. Rev. c. T. Garrison
is the Methodist pastor but as he has
four other churches somewhat scat
tered he can not give the church as
good service as he wishes. The
Methodist membership is not strong
numerically or financially b.t if they
are loyal to Methodist doctrine and
policy all will be well.
Mr.. Morris was also the principal
protector Of the Methodist church
at Ponaria, little town cn the sor-
thern railroad fifteen miles east of
Newberry. This is strategic point
for Methodsm. | recall the time when
Newberry circuit embraced large
territory and was manned by two
preachers. L. F. Beatty, George ".

ary for the use of some type in order
to be able to make up the paper.
Troubles travel in groups. We thank
the community for its big hearted
sympathy which has been expressed
and manifested in many ways. There

The, legislature is prolonging its
session beyond the forty days. The
papers do not tell US much about what
is being done and therefore we must
conclude that there is not much being
done Of public nature.
The appropriation bill passed the
house as it came from the committee
and since it reached the senate we
have not heard from it. We did hear
some gentleman say, who was in Co.
lumbia, that the opinion there was
that it would pass the senate as it
left the house with very few if any
changes. That is the main question
in which the people at present are
interested.

Local History in the Schools

Good for C. S. Goodgion, superin-
tendent of education in Anderson
county. He has prevailed upon Mrs.
J. R. Vandiver of Anderson to write a
series of sketches of the early histo-
ry of that county for use in the fifth
grade in the country schools and for
general reading.
The Greenwood IndeX-J ournal de-
clares that this is an excellent idea
and calls upon the Greenwood chap
ter of the Daughters of the Revolu-
ton to have a similar plan adopted
for Greenwood county.
The history Of every South Caro-
lima county should be compiled and
taught in it's schools. Practically ev-
cry county in the state has an inter-
esting and instructive record.
The Piedmont wishes that brief
history of Greenville county could be
compiled, published and used in all
the schools of this city and county. 1t
should comprise not only the story of
the past but a survey of the present,
so that every school pupil would be
acquainted with the resources and
assets of the city and county.
The average youngster imagines
that all the Indians, the hu1faloes,
the wolves, the panthers and other
wild things belonged only to the Wild
West, when, as a mater Of fact, there
was time when Greenville county
was full of them.
1t is high time that we should write
and study our own local history.
In fact 50 far as I have been able
to observe we have really no good
school history Of South Carolina at
present being taught in the public
schools. A great deal depends upon
the teacher in presenting to the pupil

why just throw it in your barn and
it will keep, and you can sit down
hard on it, because you owe no man
for the making Of it. And if every
cotton farmer would follow this SIM
pie and sensible plan you would sooa
be able to find out if there was cot
ton famine or surplus of cotton. 1t
is a far reaching question. The spec
ulators regulate the price now, be-
cause the farmer spends the money
he expects to get for his cotton before
he makes it, and it is not lis when the
crop is harvested.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1921-02-22

Senators Smith and Heflin, accord
ing to their statements as published
in the Congressional Record account
for the discrepancies in official sta
tistics as to the amount Of cotton on
hand last July 81 through misleading
double entries. For instance they
point out that under the defective
system pursued in gathering infor-
nation as to cotton on hand census
agent will make a round OF the ware
houses in the locality counting every
bale of cotton in sight, and when thai
cotton is shipped to another ware
house in territory Of another agent
it is counted again, making it appear
that there are two thousand bales
where as a matter of fact there IS
onlv one. It is because of this KIND
Of procedure that the statistics make
it appear that there were five million
bales of cotton on hand last July 81
when by no possibility, according to
the export and consumption flgures'
there could have been as much as
million bales. The question raised IS
of tremendous Importance not only to
the cotton growers but the cotton
consuming world at large. If it is
fact that there were five million bales
of cotton on hand last July, and the
farmers raised only half crop this
year, there will be a cotton famine
next year. Whatever the truth of
the matter, the sensible thing for the
farmers is not to think of raising any
more cotton unit! they have made am
pie provision for raising everything
necessary that they can raise in the
way of foodstuffs and supplies that
they would otherwise have to buy,
whether cotton is worth so cents
pound or cents a pound.---I ork-
vile Enquirer.
This is exactly the doctrine The
Herald and News has preached for
the past thirty years. First raise all
the food you need and then raise all
the cotton you can, and that you will
be able to call your own at the end
of the season, regardless of the price.
Then it is yours and if you do not
care to take the price that is offered

! have stated before that in some
of the districts we are depending on
the legislature to run the schools and
we are kept waiting until the ad-
journment of that body to, know just
where we are at. Of course we do
not expect to see the legislature fail
to keep the faith, but nothing is GER
tain until it is done. l hope the
teachers and the trustees in these
districts will not lose the school spir-
it, because I am satisfied the money
promised by the state will be gwen,
but it is impossible and contrary to
the law for me to anticipate the ac-
ton of that body by approving claims
until the money is actually in hand.
I desire to see the enrolment and the
average attendance kept up so that
when we make our application for
the aid it will not be necessary to
make any explanations, but simply
let the record speak for itself.
