he helles--society beauties from old,

have been used to life OF luxury

TO work whether they want to or not.
The farmer government of Pre-
mieg Slamboulisky at Sofia Is about
to enact legislation making work
compulsory and according to infor-
nation received here today. large
numbers of Bulgarian social butter
flies are planning to leave the coun-
try to make their future homes

come TO France.

scheme. idle women will be COM

regardless of their social rank, they
must work at least IL hours out OF

HONOR OF DELEGATES

The local post of the American Le-

ket covered with red, white, and blue
crcoe paper and containing numer-
Gus small flags, beirg suspended from
the center of the ceiling. From the
center to the comes and s.des of
the hall Were draped graceful folds
of red, white and blue crepe, while
large flags and banners were arranged
over the doorways. In each of the
, many windows of the hall was sus-
pended a smaller wicker basket con-
tanning gay colored zinnias.
Attractive punch booths were ar
ranged in two corners and from these
purch was dispensed by Misses Betsy
McFall, Margaret Kinard, Elizabeth
Kinard, Ella Bowman and Helen Pur-
cell.
At the door the guests were greeted
by Misses Nancy Fox, Anna Coe

Owen Holmes, Neal Workman and DR..
Keifer Wicker. The entertaining ccm-
mittee on the floor were Mrs. j. M.
Kinard, Miss Sudie Dennis and Miss

An entertaining diversion from
the dance came in the singing of the

kin of Columbia. Mr.. Lumpkin pos
sesses a wonderfully rich voice and
this singing was received with hearty
applause. He was accompanied on
the piano by Miss Margaret Burton.

Gen. S. D. Butler of Quantico, Va.
An outstanding feature of the ex-
ercises at Willowbrook park Wednes-
day afternoon was an address by Gen.
is. D. Butler of Quantico, Va, who
was introduced in a most happy man
'ner by Congressman John j. McSwain
of Greenville.
AS a speaker, Gen. Butler is not,
but as soldier talking to soldiers in
characteristic soldier fashion he made
decided hit, and following his ad-
dress Of perhaps thirty minutes there
was great applause for him.
Paying tribute to the men who
served in the World war, General
Butler declared that nobody ever did
anything really great without having
the picture of a woman in his heart.
He declared that the Warld war vet
Grams fought for the preservation of
women and children and American
home and that the American dough
boy" only did what he would gladly
and eagerly do at any time.
Paying tribute to the American
"doughboy," he declared that no other
nation could produce a soldier equal
to him, because he is a product of a
peculiar civilization that more or less
makes light of everything, including
death. '"The American doughboy,' -
he said, event to France with the
feeling toward the German soldier,
Now damn you, you started this war,
and we are going to fix YOU"
"The American LEGION he said,
is composed of the pick of the nation,
and it is up to the American Legion
to get this tax-burdened nation out

penses. .

characteristic soldier talk, he declared
that soldering is a game between
the commanding officer on one side
and everybody else on the other side" "

pleasure at being in Newberry and

Still Another Still

Deputies Player and Taylor and
Constable Havird went to the home
of Carwile Hunter, colored, who lives
near Mr.. Jim Barre's place. The Of
fcers were on a liquor scent and
found a still with a half gallon OF
whiskey. Hunter was not at home'
and the officers returned to the city.
That was Tuesday afternoon. Later
Deputy Player saw Hunter in town
and arrested him. The prisoner had
in his possession S339.57, among
which were four $50 bills. On We'd
nesday he was released by Magistrate
Douglas on a $500 cash bond. This
shows, as everybody knows, that there
is money in whiskey. But we don't
advise anyone to try it. Hunter has
been hunted before for alleged blind
tioerism, and it may be that he, or
some other colored citizen, was the
inspiration of the following sentence
from the last issue (up-to-date) OF
the Anderson Mail: ''News of New
berry's travelling distillery, or mount
ed home brew outfit, is travelling
still" The point is there. We be-
lieve there is a sort of slow travelling
brewing outfit among colored people
in some parts of the county, but Or
ficers Player, Taylor and Havird are

FAILURE IN DUTY
BY PETIT JURIES
JUDGE SEASE GIVES ADVICE
IN SpARIANBURG
After All Fault at First Lies With
State of South Carolina,
He Says

The State.
SpartanDurg, Sept. 6.-JuCge I. 5
Sease of the circuit bench holdlE2
special session of the court of gen
eral sessions here today took occa,
sion in addressing the grand jury to
say that responsibility for much of
the crime in this state is due to the
petit juries.
Judge Sease said he did not pre-.
tend to say that the petit Jurles are
dishonest, but that their action IS due
to lack of intelligence to properly
weigh the matter. While the fault
is with the petit jury, the fault for It's
lack of intelligence lies with the state
of South Carolina, which for 3CU
wears has failed to provide adequate
compulsory education law. 1t was not
rrtil the last few years that anything
has been done to force the voter and
the Juror to become educated. The
state owes it to herself to put a tax
sufficient on the real and personal
property to defray the expense OF ed
ucating the voters. The crime wave
Judge Sease went on to say, is not al!
aftermath of the great world war
hut is due to the failure of the petl'
Jury to convict criminals regardless
of their social standing, whether great
or small. Justice is said to be bllnc
to the standing of the criminal. Inc
object of the law is to punish the
criminal and to deter others from
crime. The juror should consider II
a matter of personal safety to BRING
a true verdict, for he does not kno"
at what time his life or property vii
be at stake because of the failure OF
iuries to do their duty.
For years, Judge Sease said, ne
has advocated compulsory education
law with teeth. No man has right
to let his boy grow up in ignorance
when the state stands ready to pay
for an education for that boy in order
to make him an intelligent voter, and
to keep him from being criminal
Individual cases can be selected where
an educated man has become a crlm-
inal, but that is seldom the case.

Cooper's address. 1t was heart-to-
heart talk that the chief executive
| had with the young Leglonnalres, IN

that it could never be maintained

Referring to high taxation in South
! Carolina the governor declared that
while the appropriation for state pur-
poses last year was about $4,000
! the federal tax appropriation from
jSouth Carolina was about S28,OOO,-
600. Little has been said about the
federal taxation in South Carolina,
he said, although there had been much
kicking about the S7000,000 state ap-
propriation. While state taxation
had increased, the state government
had increased in efficiency; more mon
ey was being spent for education than
ever before, and the strength Of the
state depended upon the education OF
! its citizenship.
