wish our thoughtful citizens to
think over this matter of necessary
public improvements. At an early
date we will be called on to vote for
or against the proposition. To get
what we need will cost 100000.
We might make part of the i'm
provements and pay up our losses on

issue. If these improvements are
made they will take care of a pop

The merchants of Florence have
set splendid example in agreeing to
close their stores at Q o'clock every
Wednesday afternoon and give their
employees a half holiday each week.
Not only does the plan give employ
ees an opportunity to enjoy little
recreation during the hot summer
months, but it is calculated to so
improve their physical condition that
they can render more efficient service
during the busy fall and winter
months. For years it has been the
custom n many South American
towns and cities to give half-holldays
t. store employees two and three
times a week during the summer
months, and the public has become
so accustomed to the rule that no one
suffers any inconvenience, and surely
there can be no valid objection 10
giving store employees in this coun-
try half-holidays once a week during
the summer months We believe the
plan will pay good dividends in in
creased efficiency.

TOWN COUNCIL NEWS.

We made an effort to buy current
from the cotton mills to supply the
town Of Dillon. Since the price made
us was 8 cents per kilowat we think
the cost prohibitive and we have
abandoned the idea of trying to buy
our current.
Representatives of several crude
Oil engines are willing to install their
outfit on guarantee that we can
produce current at one cent a killo-
wat for cost Of fuel-oil. This will
not include operating expense or
overhead costs.
We are now considering a propo-
sition to build new light plant using
two crude oil engines of 200 horse
power each. We estimate the cost of
the two engines with two generators
OF same size and to include new
switch board and other accessories
at about $35.00O.O0 We would
perhaps need new building
to have the new equipment. If we
should build a new power plant we
think of greatly improving our water
plant. This would include one eight
inch deep well with new and modern
pumps. We would like to build n
concrete reservoir to hold not less
than 100000 gallons of water. Also
We would like to make some extern
sions OF our water pipe lines and
sewer lines. These improvements. ifI
made. will cost from $4,000 to $6O,-
600. The only way to meet this cost
would be a bond issue.
Also the Public Works Commits
sion owe fully $4,000 Of floating in
debtedness. This will also have to be
taken care Of In the bond issue. Wei

GIVING SPLENDID AID

Postmasters are giving splendid
cooperation in the effort to create
new capital by increasing the num-
ber of investors in government
savings securities. approximately
100000 letters have been distributed
by them since the middle Of Feb
ruary to patrons Of their Offices,
through post ONCE boxes or BY
means Of the regular carriers, call
ing attention to the fact that the
man who saves even q dollar out
Of his income has to that extent
become capitalist, and to the alb
solute safety Of government securi-
ties as investments for such saw.
ings. The postmasters are to be
congratulated not only for helping
TO finance the government but for
making their influence felt in be-
half OF the welfare of their own
communities. Distribution of these
letters means that the benefits Of
saving and sound investment have
been brought directly to the atten-
tion OF thousands Of persons in
Maryland, the District of Columbia,
West Virginia, Virginia and the two
Carolinas.

Recent political news from Wash

the rumor that Former Governor
Blease will be a candidate for gov
ernor in 1922. From the very day it
took charge of the nations affairs the
Harding administration has been lay
ing its plans for 1924, and between
now and then an earnest effort will
be made to build up a respectable
republican party in the south. This
is no secret in Washington. South
Carolina is regarded as the strongest
Democratic state in the south, and
there Is a strong probability that the
men who shape the policies of the
republican party will concentrate
their forces on this state. All signs
point to the fact that the plan of
campaign will be to gather into the
fold erstwhile Democrats
of influence who are out of harmony
with their party. 1t should not be

public to reduce wages and let rates

SHADING,


In every picture there. is q point
from which rays of light come
falling upon the objects and figures
in their path. This is the source
of light"
In. a picture, as in real life, the
side of an object directly in the
light is brighter than that side
which is in the shadow. Figure 2
illustrates this, The side, A, of the
cube Is in the light The black
side Is in the shadow.
Figure 3 shows a pipe standing
in the light. The light comes from
the right side. That side of thu
pipe is brilliant white. Gradually
to the left the shadows deepen till,
ct the extreme right, the pipe Is
black. This gradual shading Is
made by making the lines fine and
then heavier. Always pe1ciI in the
shade lines before making them In
Ink.
When shading a character such
as figure l, or any, object start
working at the top SO your hand
will not smudge the ink.
Shade the mans hat as you
shaded the pipe in figure 3. For
contrast leave the hatband solid
white.
A small shadow under the nose
