BETTER OUTLOOK.

A nationwide survey of industrial,
agricultural and other economic con-
ditions, completed by the Fidelity and
Deposit company of Baltimore, shows
a tendency towards improvement: in
most lines, though no claim is made
for any marked changes. The opti-
mism is probably based more on the
tendency than upon actual improve
,ment at this time.
David F. Houston, former secretary
Of the treasury, has made an analysis
of the replies to thirty six questions,
which were sent to farmers, bankers,
manufacturers and public officials. It
would be a mistake to base general
prospects upon local conditions, and
the results of the analysis of Mr..
Houston are general in character:
"The survey does point to certain
favorable domestic conditions" Mr.
Houston says. "The cost of living has
appreciably diminished. Building OPP
erations'in a large number of districts
tend to increase. The crop outlook is
favorable and the banking situation
has improved"
Persons like Mr.. Houston, who are
able to make more than a superficial
observation of conditions, are able to
discover influences which are not dis
cernible to the average individual.
Tendencies which are not known to
the average reader mean a great deal
to the student of affairs who is
forced to base his forecasts on hid
den causes.-Canton CO., News.

But if we send our money to the
big cities that is the last we hear
of it. If enough money is sent to

munity we may easily put our local
merchants out of business, BY divert
ing our trade from u local store
keepers and other business concerns
we can make it impossible for them
to maintain their business.

to the mail order houses detracts just
so much from our own individual

You need the help of every dollar in

brighter, more desirable and worth
more in dollars and cents.

leges should teach US more and more
the value of good public schools. The
money which it takes to pay the an
nual expenses Of one student at one
of our modern colleges will now en-
ploy a'teacher who teaches thirty or
more pupils each day for a year. The
cost of education as between the col
leges and .the2public schools is about
in this proportion. This fact should
emphasize the very great Importance
of public schools in u midst,
schools WHICH are in the reach of
every pupil and which may be at
tended by. every pupil in the COM
munity almost without cost. When
such is the case it would seem the
part of wisdom for a community like
Abbeville to join hands in trying to
have the very best of these schools.
There are twenty-five students from
Abbeville in the colleges nearby. Pro-
badly there are more. The money
they will spend in the next four years
of their college life will almost, if
not quite, pay for the new high
school building to be erected, which
will bring; at. least two years of the
work done in the colleges thirty
years ago, and enjoyed by but a few,
to the very doors Of all the six hun
dred white children of, the commu-
nifty. ,
Does it not seem foolish then for
us to be q~uarreling about whether
our children shall walk one, or two,
or three hundred yards more in order
to reach school? Does it not seem
that the people bubble about
so many small things and have so
many prejudices in school matters,
instead of approaching the great
boon which the public schools have
brought and which they are each.

Isn't it foolish to fuss about
a little more taxes and a little more
debt, when we consider how
much the schools do for our own and
our neighbours children? Isn't it fool
ish to question the payment of little
more in the way of salary to the man
and to the woman who is able to car

cation, in this community to a salts

A. B. & A. RECEIVER
VIOLATED ACT IN 49,
REDUCING WAGES

Chicago, April 21.-The railroad
labor board today ruled that the, re-
ceiver Of the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic railroad, in reducing
wages Of its meployes in compliance
with a decision by Federal Judge S.
II. Sibley, had acted in violation Of
the spirit and letter Of the. transpor-
tation act.
The board declared that it was
powerless to take action in the case
at present and suggested that the EN-
Jployees, most of whom are now on
strike, again hold conferences with
the owners, and if an agreemnt is
not reached, bring the cas- back to
the labor board.
"The duty to obey a decision Of
this board. is not any less. an obliga-
ton on the receivers Of a road than
on the owners of a road" the de-
cision said. . - ,
The Atlanta, Birmingham and At
lantic case brought the first clash be-
tween the labor board and a federal
court and was the first legal tangle
which the board was called ON to un-
ravel. .+... :. -
The last came before the board
last January when the road posted
notices of wage reductions. Officers
of the road told the board the car
rier was losing 100000 monthly
and had to cut wages in order to ex-
ist. The board ordered the reduction
notice withdrawn and told the en-
ployers t0 confer with their workers
in accordance with the transportation
act. when the case again came up, it
was brought out that the road did
not contest the business of the wages
set by the board but pleaded only in
ability to pay. The board ruled that
financial conditions of the road was
not a matter for it to act upon, de-
claring that such matters should 90
before interstate commerce commits
sion. F.
Subsequently the road went into
the hands of a receiver and Judge
Sibley authorized the wage reduc-
lions. A strike was then called on
the road. The decision today said
that the board believed that a mis-
understanding of the Ease had cause
the federal court to. authorize 1.-THE,
reductions instead. Of sending THE
case back to the labor board

THE F0UR-SEAS0N HAT IDEA
According TO Plan, Women Are TO Be
kdueatsd In Wearing Headgear
Suitable 20 the Time.

The seasons in hats have done more
than overlap. as a matter OF fact.
They have been so juggled that women
have found themselves wearing straw,
flower trimmed hats In January and
fur trimmed and heavy velvet cha
peaux during the sweltering days Of
midsummer.
According 20 plan. women will be
gradually educated 10 the four-season
idea. wearing dainty hats that are sug-
gestive OF spring during the brief but
delightful period; flower trimmed,
filmy hats during the summer months
and as the cooler weather comes on
they will gradually change the char
aeter OF their headgear so that fur
and fur trimmed hats will actually
be seen only when fur wraps and fur
trimmed suits and coats are comfort
able and becoming.
The hat entirely OF fur Is a favorite
again this winter. but the fabric and
fur combination. or the fabric hat
with q mere touch OF fur IN It's trim
ming is made popular.
