MADE IN CAROLINAS

1t is proposed to hold in Charlotte
during the fall an exposition of the
things made in the Carolinas. This
is a splendid idea and the exposition
should be largely patronized and no
doubt it will. We are publishing in
this issue an account or prospectus Of
the exposition, and if the railroads
will make rates so that the people can
attend, this exposition will be one Of
the largest attended that has ever
been held in the south.
1t may help to show our people
what a wonderful country We have
and encourage the development Of
this wonderful land of ours. Partic-
ularly should every school teacher IN
the Carolinas attend this show. 1t
will be an education in itself. It
would pay the trustees and school au
thorities of every county in South
Carolina to arrange to take the teach
ers in a body to the exposition and
spend couple days studying the re-
sources of the Carolinas as placed on
exhibition here.
We hope some arrangement may
be made when the exposition opens to
have all the teachers in this county
and the trustees of the schools visit
this exposition n body and spend
one or two days there. It would be
worth the time and the cost.

THE GREENVILLE BOOSTERS.

The Greenville boosters came to
Newberry at very unreasonable
hour and left before they. had time
to be given any attention at all.
Coming at $50 in the morning and
being scheduled to leave at $50 of
course the Newberry people con-
cluded, and naturally, that the only
purpose of stopping was to get a
good square meal at the fine hotels
that Newberry has at this time, for
that is about all the time they spent.
Well, after being away from home
for a week no doubt good square
meal was acceptable.
They were out primarily, of
course, to advertise Greenville, and
yet we would have been glad if some
of the various organizations, such as
the chamber of commerce or the ki-
wants club or the Rotary or all Of
them combined, had appointed COM
mittee or committees to meet the
train even at the unreasonable hour
of $50 in the morning and have CIV
en- the visitors the glad hand and let
them know that this is in reality the
best town in the state. But as we
say, no doubt our people felt that
coming at the hour appointed the
purpose was to get a good breakfast.
And then our streets are now in such
condition that we can not go over
them or show any one the town with
any degree of satisfaction.

TWO-WAY f
ON NOW
Merchants Object TO Having II Continued
as 0ne-Way Street-Traffie
Problem Hard One.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2L-Again they're
tinkering with New York's traffic.
The police department long has been
unable to dodge the law of physics that
two objects can't occupy the same space
at the same minute. And with the num-
Der of automobiles increasing daily and
the crowd of pedestrians holding its own,
the traffic problem is becoming worse.
In the old days, traffic went up and
dow Broadway much the same way It
does in any main street the country over
though with the same hectic confusion
that reigns in the Subways beneath the
wCrld-famous ~thOroughfare.
But a little while ago it was decided
that at night, at hours when most
th~eatre-goers were b0end up Manhattan
to their homes, Broadway between 3Sth
and 9th streets should become Il one-way
street.
Now that plan has been abandoned.
Merchants ave complained that the
northbound nightly traffic was diyerting
to other thoroughfares business which
should come to them.
So Special Deputy Police Commits
sioner Harris has ruled that for a 3O-day
trial period twO-way traffic shall be re-
stored-to be regulated by signal tow
ers such as have been operating for many
months on Fifth avenue. Signal lamps
atom these towers command traffic all
along Fifth avenue To halt or proceed at
the same moment. If a couple of eX-
detrimental towers work out all right on
broadway. the city will be asked to IN
stall more.

AN UNUSUAL
Company Agrees to Keep a
Squaw Clean.

..r
To agree to keep a squaw clean is an
unusual contract for a mining company
to make, but this was one of the terms
of the verbal agreement between i. Il.
Kendall for the Tin Mountain Mining
Co. of the Goldheld district. Nevada.
and Indian Johnnie of the Death Valley
country.
TIL agreement was that Johnnie's
Squaw was to be taken to Death Valley
S~cotty's ranch for a weekly bath. bat
the contract didn't last long before il was
broken by Kendall. He declared that
he was unable to see any difference in
the squaw before and after taking the
bath and that therefore. he considered
it quite ~supcTfluous. and, in fact. utter
nonsense. to say nothing of a ~scandalOuS
waste of water. The Squaw, it appears,
had n penchant for highly perfumed soap.
and had insisted that this be furnished
in abundant quantities by Kendall. The
latter tried to substitute good strong
soap of the household variety, hut this
met with vigorous protests on the part
of the lady herself.
The property now owned By the mining
company was brought 10 the attention
of Kendall by Indian Johnnie, who thus
far has received in payment two rifles,
Il wagon, and $3.50, paid him at the rate
of So n day, according TO Kendall. foI
