IN HER NEW PICTURE

Nazimoya, the brilliant Russian STAR

management of the opera house as a
special attraction on Friday. The
presentation Of this great artistic in
a great photo-drama is described as g

brilliant novel replete with thrills and
compelling dramatic climaxes that
grow out of an abortiye mutiny ana

Anderson, March 5.-Victor B.
Cheshire, editor Of the Anderson
Daily Tribune, was found dead in his
bed at an early hour this morning.
Mr.. Cheshire had not been well for
several days but was not considered
seriously i'll. His wife called to him
at 5 O'Clock to ask how he felt. Re-
ceiying no asnwer she hurriedly went
to him and found that he had died
during the night apparently without

wrote fearlessly when he became edi-
tor of his own paper by buying the
Anderson Intelligencer. He was a
member: Of the staff of Cole Blease.
The Inteligencer was bought by a
syndicate and later went out of busi-
ness. Mr.. Cheshire after a short time
being out of newspaper work started
The Tribune, first as a, semi-weekly
paper and later changed it to daily.
NJ. Cheshire had indomitable energy,
which made his business ventures
successful.

given in this city have become the
subject of so much unfavorable criti-
cism that at meeting Of the city
council last Thursday night, strong
steps were taken, and all public dane
!es were ruled out. The council let it
be- known that if necessary an ordi-
nance to this effect would be passed.
The so called oratorical ball here last
spring was considered a disgrace to
Greenwood, and was severely con-
deraned by the press and by the good
people of Greenwood. While these
dances may be no worse than they are
at other places they are not wanted
here. Presidents of all colleges have
written citizens protesting against a
dance here in connection with the
soratorical contest which is to be held
here in April. The Chamber Of Com
merce got behind the dance PROPOSE
tion and at it's request the council
acted. 1t should be understood that
tine good people of Greenwood are in
hearty sympathy with the action Of
the council, and that they are as
=
strongly opposed to these dances, as
are the presidents of the colleges who
have made protests against them. The
following is the text of the resolution
passed by the council and the letter
of the Chamber Of Commerce.
Whereas, Public dances conducted
i'm this town for the last two or three
years to which all persons, regardless
of: character, have been admitted on
payment of an admittance fee have
given rise to much adverse criticism
and condemnation by our religious
and educational leaders.
Therefore be it resolved: First,
That we desire to assure those who
have, the religious and moral we'll be-
ing of the young people of this COM
fmunity at heart that we are in full
with them in all efforts for
the preservation Of the good name Of
this community.
|: Second, That while we do hot think
Sit wise or necessary to enact an ordi-
nance prohibiting public dances at
this time, we stand ready to enact
such an ordinance if the prevailing
sentiment of the good people is still
disregarded.
? Following is the letter to the city
clerk from the Chamber of Commerce
in regard to the dance situation:
Owing to the fact that Greenwood
has suffered to a great extent from
the criticisms whether just or un-
;iust, directed at the open public dan
,ces given in Gibbs hall, on the occa-
sion of the 1920 Oratorical Contest,
we respectfully request that you sub
bit to the City Council at their next
meeting our recommendation that
they officially prohibit the holding Of
public dances in the city. We believe
that this action on the part of the
council is well justified as a police
measure to protect the good name Of
the city and to prevent any possible
disorder or unwholesome features
which might arise and in order to
avoid the repetition Of violent criti-
.eism, which attended the gathering of
the young people of the city and the
visiting students at the. dance men
;tioned, which was seriously and un-
justly detrimental to the reputation
of Greenwood as moral community.

Did Not Go to Right Shop
~ Until the public is educated to ap-

no doubt, on the part of these insti-

managers of these associations gener-
ally at the present time is to relieve

John Henry could be accommodated if
he would only seek the right shop, and
not lose his enthusiasm after the first
turn down.
ITO be specific, it is my belief that
he could be taken care of at the offices
of the Franklin Society, 15 Park Row,
the Railroad Association, 437 licking

among the largest Of the home building

at may be that John Henry was dis
covered to be an impossible person, for
he figures that his house could be built
by himself in q month for $1,000. 1t
must be said that house that can be
built in a month for 81 900 in these
days isn't much of house. Savings

something pretty to look at but should
be charming spot in which to spend
many enjoyable hours The central
feature of this garden is a small, cir
cular pool in which attractive aquatics
can be placed. The paths arc of turf,
edged with low box or other suitable
dwarf hedging which gives a very trim
and pleasant appearance during the en-
tire year. With proper planting this
type of garden can be made very at
tractivc.
Orchard Provides Scclusion
The orchard is so located as to form
background for the flower garden
and also screens out the abutting rear
property.
A vegetable garden is placed on each
SIDE of the flower garden. They arc
simple in design, as vegetable gardens
should be. Ornate designs in vcgc-
table gardens arc not only foolish but
difficult to take care Of. With the
proper proportion OF deciduous and
evergreen planting bordering the lawn
and with suitable planting around the
house, an attractive all-ycar homelike
place can be created. The general lay
out is we'll balanced and can be eco

suburban place which is to be
charming and practical in every detail
requires great deal of foresight and
careful planning
The proper treatment and the best
arrangement of the grounds can be OBJ
tanned only by a complete conception
of the place as d whole. On plots
which arc small in area and where
every square foot Of ground must be
conserved, it is important that every
feature should be carefully considered
and planned long before a spade is
turned. Unfortunately, many suburban
properties have been developed in a
haphazard piece meal manner, which is
not only the most costly way, but
usually the work accomplished is un-
satisfactory BY having a complete
general plan of the place showing the
exact location of the proposed house,
garage, driVeways, gardens, etc, it is
possible to work along definite lines,
and even though the owner desires to
carry out the work gradually, he will
eventually have R place which will
show the results of fores ght and
which will have cost him considerably
less than if he had attempted to de-
velop his place in an indefinite way
Plan Should Be Practical
The general arrangement Of the
grounds as shown on this weeks plot
plan is both attractive and practical
The house is set back far enough from
house.
The service part of the place is en-
tirely separated from the living side,
which is very desirable, as it climi-
mates to large degree the annoyances
