be burned on every All Souls Day
for 5000 years is being made in
New York as a memorial to Enrico
Caruso from the inmates of an Dr.

weeks, and will weigh about 1000
pounds. 1t is figured that the can
die would burn continuously for
thirteen years and seven months.

Aome one said that while the trial

the fines. I do not doubt in the least
but that it was true. Some Of the
officers tell me: "What is the use
for us. to capture. men and bring
them to trial when they know that
the punishment will hardly amount
to anything?" The way our courts
are acting today is just about the
same as giving men cheap licenses to
make, transport and sell whiskey.
Our judges can stop it if they would.
No doubt Of that, for it has been
tried in this county. A few years
ago Judge Purefoy held court in
Pickens and he imposed chaingang

ED BOWEN ELECTED SOLICITOR
GREENVILLE COUNTY COURT.

Grsenville Piedmont.
William E. Bowen, one Of the
popular younger members of the local
BAR, was elected solicitor of the
County Court on the second ballot,
at meeting of the county delega-
ton held at II o'clock this morning.
Mr.. Bowen is a member Of the law
firm of Bowen and Bryson, with Of
fees in the Palmetto building. He
was candidate for the Office of cir
cult solicitor in the primary held
last summer, but was defeated.
Mr.. Bowen, who is 28 years of age,
is the son of Reese Bowen, a promi-
nent farmer of Pickens county, and
was graduated from Furrnan Univer-
sity several years ago with the de-
gree Of Bachelor of Arts, and later
graduated in law from the University
Of South Carolina, being admitted to
the bariin Greenville county in 1919.
He is veteran of the World War,

was that he appreciated the honor
that had been conferred upon him by

without fear or favor; and to the best
Of his ability. Mr.. Bowen said that
he did not know when the first crimi-

TALK OF SPECIAL TERM OF
COURT.

There is considerable talk of hay
ing special term Of court in Pick
ems county to try Wade Ballew and
Robert Wilson, charged with killing
Policeman Holcombe at Easley last
week. However no definite steps
have been taken towards holding a
special term. 1t is impossible to tell
now when Ballew's wounds would al
low him to be placed on trial, and as
Solicitor Smoak is engaged in court
at Greenville and will be for some
time, specific date for holding a
special term Of court could not be
set with any certainty.
While there is considerable sen
timcnt favoring special term and
tn. sheriff and solicitor are ready and
willing to take the necessary prelim-
mary steps if properly petitioned, ii
appears now that conditions will pre-.
vent one being held.
The next regular term Of court
for Pickens county will be the frs
Monday III June.

ELLSWORTH SCHOOL NOTES.
(By Supt. H. e. Henry.)

Ellsworth schools will open next
Monday, Jan. 2.
Have you joined the drive? If
not, join the drive now for better
attendance during the remainder of
the school year.
The school board has received
quite number of bids for furnish
ing the wood for the various schools
for the ensuing year, but there is
still an opportunity. 1t is very
gratifying to know that, with one
exception, all of the Ellsworth
term.
Many of the mothers testified to
their interest in our schools by at
tending the closing exercises on the
last day of the fall term, and while
all were favorably impressed with
the programs as presented by the
children, it is to be hoped that not
only the mothers, but the fathers as
well, will encourage the teachers by
visiting the schools during the regu-
lar work the comings weeks.
If you were in need of an as
sistant in your factory, in your Of
flee or on your farm, how would you
select the young man or woman for
the position? Would you employ
the young man or woman because
the Gather of the candidate was a
good citizen and paid taxes in the
town in which you reside, or would
you select the person whom you be-
lieved best adapted to the position?
Why use arguments in favor of
teachers that you would not use in
employing a person for any other
situation? Personally, l believe in
selecting the teacher for the school
prather than the school for the
teacher. l would employ only such
persons as intend making teaching
their profession. Those who intend
to use the schOolroom only as
makeshift to secure a few dollars
while out of other employment, had
better apply elsewhere.
Schools in Dedham and Surry be-
gan Tuesday, with Miss Alma
Emery in charge of the consolidated
school at Dedham, and Miss Kath-
eryn at Green Lake. The Surry
schools will be under the same
teachers as last term.
Now that the hunting season has
iCSaily CiOoou, we uOpe CudJ There
will not be so many sick boys in
the rural districts as we had last
term, though of course there are
still plenty of rabbits, and the skat-
ing is fairly good.
Once more we must turn our at
tention to raising funds for the
erection Of new high school build
ing, and it may be interesting to
know that plan has been evolved
whereby it will be possible to erect
the building during the coming sum-
mer and have it ready for use at the
beginning of the next school year.
We also hope the plan will meet the
general approval of the people of
Ellsworth, and that the object can
be accomplished in the very near
future. All such plans must be ap-
proved by the local school board and
the State superintendent of schools.
but the public can exert consider
able influence in matter of this
kind, and it is their privilege to do
So
