The local delegation to the General
Assembly followed a sound policy in
providing for the essential needs Of
the highway commission and leaving
to the people a decision on expendi-
lures outside the original program. To
bur mind, however, it would have been
better to have made the extra bond
issues large enough to take care Of
needed improvements on other i'm
portant highways of the county, the
completion of the Laurens- Greenwood
road, for instance. However, the dele
cation had strong representations for
The smaller bond issues and could not
well avoid doing something to meet
with these demands.

ductions were without representation.
President Wilson G. Harvey. after
considerable debate emphasized that
Senator Watkins had procured more
reductions than any other senator; he
had led the fights which reduced the
bill $9S,912. He had first contem-
plated putting Senator Williams, Of
Aiken, on tho commission as Senator
Williams had voted consistently with
tho radical wing for reduction. SEN
ator Williams asked to be excused. He
then thought Of putting Senator John
son, OF Allendale, but Senator John
Senator Watkins, who had achieved
more in his efforts to reduce the bill
than any other, and so far as the
chair was concerned the appointments
stood.
The procedure was unprecedented in
the senate, and the protest against
free conference committee appoint
ments was the subject Of much dis
cussion at the time in the lobbics Of
both houses.
Senator Clifton took the floor after
Preident Harvey had dismissed the
matter and emphasized that he was
still Of his original opinion that those
advocating sharp reductions in the
measure were without representation,
and he did not propose to be lee
tured by the chair"
The senate tonight continued until
next session the bill by Representative
Simonhoff, Of Charleston, requiring
certitication Of all males ap-
'plying for marriage licenses.
Indications early tonight are that
both houses will be in session until
late tomorrow morning.
During the lapse, the lower house is
receding from business, subject to the
call Of the chair and occasional raps
for order being given when papers are

WITHOUT ANY FRIENDS

In letter to editors of papers in
South Carolina asking them to give as
much space as possible to the acreage
reduction movement, a. b. Jordan,
president Of the State Press associa-
zion sizes up the situation about as 1t
is, as follows:
With mills closing down every
where, with the cotton jobbing trade
In the North practically at n stand
STILL with the demand for cotton goods
falling off every day, not only in the
United States, but all over the world,
.and with Europe returning cotton to
America because the spinners over
there are not able to pay for it, it
seems that South Cardinals only hope
lies in acreage reduction. regardless
OF what other states do"
The Advertiser could hardly add
moro to that except to 20 little
farther and say that each farmer
would do we'll to reduce his acreage re-
gardleSs of what his ncighbor does
me farmer who grows large crop
or cotton will take long chance on
proht and probably take big loss
If many do likewise. Even If there is
general reduction OF acreage the
proilt on cotton will likely be small
and the man who supplies himself at
nome will be in a strong position even
If cotton prices remain low.

LETHE
BY WALT MASON


Forget the symptoms of disease DER
which you're prone to cry alack, those
signs OF stringhalt in your knees, and
hints OF cricks along Your back; for
getting all such things as these. you'll
be surprised how high you stack For
brooding over ailments dire may bring
them to you. all in line; far better
hear the woodland choir, or catch a
fish where streamlets shine: far
better buy whalebone Tyre, and turn
out madrigals like mine. And talking
of your drivers ills is surely bound to
make them worse; forget the doctor
and his pills, the undertaken and his
hearse, and walk along the sunlit hills
and the chant a glad and grateful
verse. He to the greatest age survives
who doesn't let the briny pour, who
romps and gambols with his wives.
and shows his head is never sore;
and if you talk OF itch and hives. you
only make yourself bore. No dismal
takers are required in this, our
mortal caravan; no lamentations are
desired, no programs on the grave
yard plan; forget the themes that
make men tired, and be sunbeam if
you can. Forget the grief of yester-
day, forget the ache you had last
night; when people would be blithe
and gay, and lonesome beefer is a
fright: be joyful, and when dusk is
gray. the boys will cry, Good scout,
Sleep tight
