Cinch Championship In Church
League By Defeating
Methodists
HOW THEY STAND

The First Christians drew
away from the other teams in
the Church League by defeating
the Methodists on the Normal
field Wednesday by score of IA
ito 5. The Complexities" can
now be hailed as the Church
League Champions as they cam
not lose the pennant if they lose
all of the rest of the games they
play Alb Oldham: who has been
going good lately, pitched the

more stuff than he has displayed
in any league game to date. He

could not hold the battling First
i Christians back and when the
Methodist defense broke behind
him in the eighth, the Camp
bellites" showed over six runs be-
fore the ''eellarites'' recovered
This completed the slaughter and
the race for the pennant. Met
calf pitched good ball or the first
three innings but he weakened
after these early rounds when the
scoring began.
The day was filled with stellar
catches. a total of three catch
es were made that were well
worth mention. Daddy" Death
erage pulled d fine one in the
eighth when he .speared John
Parks long fly with one hant
while running at top speed to-
ward the bushes. Spears Turley
also made fine running catch il
the same inning. Jim Howe rob
bed Barnett of hit in the fifth
when he ran in behind SECOND
and made fancy shoe string
catch of his pop fly.

(To be Continued.)

-Laurens, December Is: At the
morning service today at the First
Baptist church the Rev. S. II. Temple
man, pastor, took occasion, before en-
tering upon his sermon, TO refer to the
tragedy in this county Wednesday
night when Hosea Martin, member
of the Laurens city police force, was
killed in the discharge of his duty and
to call upon the people to take n de-
finite stand for law enforcement by
backing up the officers, in carrying out
the law. Indifference. he said, was
causing the law to be brought into con-
tempt more than some other things
Judges and juries, backed strongly by
public sentiment, will administer the
law in a way that justice will not be
defeated. as is frequently the case in
South Carolina, he said. The ,machin-
cry Is ample and Laurens' county has
capable and courageous peace officers,
the preacher declared, but what Is
needed to make their efforts more ef-
fective in holding in check the law
lessly inclined Is the support and the
expressed desire to see the law up
held and the officers encouraged.

for improvements that would simply be
supplemental and made complete by
the present plan. In some cases, nc
doubt, counties would find it desirable
to provide for additional road bond is
sues, but they would certainly lose nc
advantage on account Of the state
work.
5. The plan provides for continu-
BUSINESS after the six year period. Any
plan that is not continuous will neces-
sarily be disappointing because the
needs of traffic will continue to devel-
op and no present plan could be suffi-
cient to provide before given date for
needs that will develop after that date
At the expiration Of the six year period
South Carolina would still have about
So, 100000 per year to spend for road
construction, in addition to a mainte-
nance fund sufficient otake, care Of
the constructed roads g.,
6. The state highway department is
at present supervising construction in
conjunction with the various counties
to the amount of about $4,000, ,Oo0, per
year, so that the proposed plan would
be little more than normal increase
in its activities. This means that the
department would have chance to ex-
pand it's engineering forces gradually
without the necessity of sending Put-
side the state for trained road engi-
neers, and at the same time would be
able to handle the work with reasona-
BILE efficiency.
7. The adoption of a more or less
fixed programme covering period OF
years would make for efficiency and
economy. The present procedure OF
planning as we go, with no knowledge
as to what the appropriations for sue
ceeding years will provide for, not only
brings about waste on account of the

evil you 60 away with me?" Peter
went on, feverishly. That's the only
way, now. That's the only way-now.
Will you go away?"
"Go away" Cherry's face was ash
en- as she moved her tragic and beau
tiful eyes to his. go away where?"
Anywhere Peter answered, con-
fusedly. Anywhere" He did not
meet her look, his own went furtiyely
about the garden. Immediately he
seemed to regain self-control. I'm
talking like fool! !" he said, quickly.
81 don't know what I'm saying half
the time! I'm sorry-rm sorry, Cher
ry. Don't mind me. Say that you'll
forgive me for what l said!"
He had taken her hands, and they
were looking distressedly and sober
ly at each other when an unexpected
noise made them step quickly apart.
Cherry's heart beat madly with ter
ror, and Peter flushed deeply.
1t was Martin Lloyd's aunt, Mrs.
North, their old neighbor, who came
about the corner of the house, and
approached them smilingly. How much
had she seen? Cherry asked herself,
in q panic. What were they doing?
what were they saying as she ap-
peared?-how much had their atti-
tude betrayed them?
Mrs. North was the same loud
laughing, cheerful woman as Of old.
She kissed Cherry, and was full of
queries for Martin.
Durango? Belle told me some
thing about his going there" she said.
"lIow long you been here, Cherry"
"Tve been with AliX and Peter for
for several weeks" Cherry said, un-
easily. Her eyes met Peters and he
conveyed reinsurance to her with a
look.
"When you going back, dear?" Mrs.
North asked, with so shrewd glance
from Cherry's exquisite rosy face to
Peters that he felt fresh pang of
suspicion. She had seen something
"Why, I've been rather-rather kept
here by the-the lawsuit, haven't /,

must stop the unavaIIlng game now.
But he had not reckoned on Cherry.
She twisted in her chair, and ne heard
child's long, happy sigh.
"Oh, so am / tired, too" she
breathed, reluctantly. II hate 10
leave it-but I've been almost asleep
for half an hour! You can have all
the moonlight there is, Peter" Her
white figure fluttered toward the door.
Good night" she said, dropping her
little head to choke yawn. A mo-
ment later he heard her laughing with
Alix.
You fool-you fool-you fool" Pc
ter said to himself, and he felt an
emotion like shame, little real CON-
junction that he could so utterly mis-
read her innocence. He felt 1t not
only wrong in him, but somehow STAIN
ing and hurtful to her.

TAXES AND MORE TAXES.
Continued From Page One.)

during the six year period on account
Of the traffic multiplying on some of
the roads. On the other hand increas-
ed traffic would mean increased reve-
nue. from both the motor vehicle license
and motor fuel taxes, which in turn
would enable a greater mileage of hard
surfacing to be constructed.
Some of the advantages of this plan
are: ..
1. 1t would enable all of the counties
to share equitably in the benefits to be
received from federal aid. An equita-
BILE distribution by counties of this fund
is not possible under the revised fed
eral statutes.
3. 1t would enable the federal aid
projects to be limited in number and
thus greatly, reduce the administrative
cost of handling these projects. The
government formalities are just the
same for a $1,000 project as for one
costing 100000.
Would Overcome Barriers.
3. The bridges provided for in this
plan would overcome the great barriers
which our rivers now constitute. Such
bridges would be of state wide signih'
canoe and the cost of their construction
is not properly chargeable to any coun-
ty, and seldom TO any group of coun-
ties. This fact has been responsible
for South Carolina's slow progress II
constructing necessary bridges.
| 4. This plan would in the future OBJ
viate the necessity for most of the
county bond issues for roads. The to-
tai OF bond issues for road improve
ment already authorized by the coun'
ties of the state amounts to some $23,'
OOO, 900, but most OF these issues were

THE WATSON CHARGES

When Senator Watson of Georgia made charges in the upper house of congress to the effect that private sol- aiers were shot by their officers because of complaints of insoIence and that men were hanged day after day without hav- Ing had trial it is to be req ized that he is dealing with serious matter. His statement In the senate was not his first Indulgence in such charges, but even though there is q general disposition to believe them it is plainly evident that lnasmuch as they have been made they cannot be ignored. Inasmuch as Sena- tor Watson has made the charges 1t is 10 be sipposed that he can furnish the evidence to support them, and certainly t IS for him to produce the proof
 II IS of course cheap talk when he re- 'ers to being opposed to being bundled ap n 2 committee room" and insisting hat the hearing take place on the floor Df the senate. Such a serious matter de- serves ali the attention 1t can get bui There is no reason why he should not follow the same course that others dc snder Ike conditions.
 The charges which Watson have made nave been heard before. They have been presented to other senators but they scked substantiation to huch 9 degret hat no attention was paid to them ant so other would take the stand that ht I'd in the senate. By the record of tht var department as read in refutation oi he senator's charges when made thert were 2S cases in the expeditionary forcei where the death sentence was passed but only nine men were excuted and il 10 instance was there an execution fo violation of military law, and in ever, ease there was trial and proper op portunity given the accused for defense
 Watson's charges therefore do no tarry much weight. Nevertheless inas much as they have been made it is cer tainly time that he be made to produc he evidence and have the charges set fled once and for all. If evidence t prove what he claims can be presente Inc senate wants to know it. If 1t can not be that body will make haste to pu an end 10 any wild and basesess talk ii Tho future.
