Variety we nfy say is the spice
OF life.
Nature provides many sorts o1
flowers.
We'd tire even OF the rose if we
had no other flower.
The seasons alternate. Perpetual
summer or perpetual winter monot-
ony.
The weather changes. Sun all the
time is~as undesirable as continuous
rain.
National customs differ. Modes of
dress and Of architecture are not the
same. Languages are minutelN sub
divided into dialects.
Life at sea is utterly different from
life on land. TO board a ship is the
next thing to going from the world
we know to one a wonder STILL
A voyage through the air is not like
journey by water or on land.
All through our lives the rule OF
perpetual variance prevails.
And so it is with persons. The in
exhaustible resourcefulness OF Ma
ture is creating so many types OF
character, So many faces, infinitely
various in feature, is amazing.
Nature did not intend us to look
and walk and act and feel too much
alike. She meant US to own our
souls. to develop individuality, to
speak out of our minds with our own
voices; in short to assert a person
ality.
Life is too tame and tepid if we
remain neutral in the background al
ways.
Seekers of the limelight and the
headlines we have with us always,
and they are odious.
But it is possible to have strongly

It is important that we should dare
to be ourselves, that we should be Will

cowardice we invariably assent to the
prevailing fashion in our opinions, We
make one more in a crowd; but q
place of leadership is denied us.
A controlling force wherever ne
goes, whatever he does, is the mar
who has convictions, and takes side:
and does not hide on the defensive
in twilight zone trying to assume
the tint of the background.
1t is a glorious event in lifetime
to meet one who has a strong anc

The chief executive gave the act
much thought and was Of the opin-
ion that it was much better than
generally thought by the public.
The bill as originally introduced
was to abolish truant officers, and
while the act retains that feature,
the final bill as passed and signed
yesterday is altogether different

are required to take a ballot before

ISOLATION for cotton in South Carolina
Division of the American Cotton AS
| ISOLATION at its semi-annual meeting,
which will be held in Columbia at
at Craven Hall on Wednesday, May
4 at noon In making this announce
ment, R. C. Hamer, president said
that the association recognizes the
absolute necessity Of this state taking
action along this line at once as the
formation of cooperative marketing
associations is proceeding in every
other cotton growing state.
An effort will be made to have eve
~ township in the state represented
at the meeting on May 4, President
Hamer said. The president of each
county division has been asked to
name SO delegates and to see that
each township in his county is rep
resented in the personnel of the dele
cation.
Preliminary steps looking to the
formation Of marketing association
in this state are already being taken.
Five regional meetings have already
been held and the sixth and last will
be held tomorrow at Rock Hill. Last
week meetings were held at Florence
Sumter, Blackville and Greenwood.
Yesterday a meeting vas held at
Spartanburg and tomorrow n will
be held at Rock Hill. These meetings
were called by DR.. W. W. Long, d.
rector of the extension forces of
Clemson College, cooperating with
the South Carolina Division of the
American Cotton Association.
At each of the regional meetings
four members of a central commit
tee to draw up the plans for the
statewide cooperative marketing
association have been selected. This
committee of tuenty-four will hold
a meeting in Columbia some time
soon and will have the plans for the
association drawn up and ready for
submission to the meeting of the
South Carolina Division of the Ameri
can Cotton Association on May 4.
These regional meetings have been
attended by select groups of farmers
from the counties participating there
in and at each of them strong resolu-
tons calling for the formation of a
cooperative marketing association
has been passed, following explana-
tions of the benefits of such an or
ganization.
4 am convinced" said President
Hamer "that the time has come for
the formation of such an association
in South Carolina. 1t is a step that
we are obliged to take as practically
every other state in the belt has or
ganized or is organizing. The senti-
ment at the regional meetings con-
viuces me that our people are ready
for this movement"
