Locals Trim Pineville.

The Pineville team of the Meek.
lenburg County league came to
Fort Mill Saturday afternoon in
high hopes of taking the measure
OF the locals, but when the nine
innings of play had been finished
they were able to observe that
the scorer had credited them with
only 2 runs while he was mark
ing up 8 for Fort Mill. Both
;eams played good hall afield, but
inability of the visitors to hit
when hits would have meant runs
for them was responsible for their
lundoing. "Whackery Smith, in.
fielder for Fort Mill, distinguish
ed himself at bat by driving out
three doubles, while Douglass
Minis, in left for the locals, got a
hand for difficult catch. The
batteries were: Pineville, Bullard
and Parnell; Fort Mill, A. Fergu-
son and w. Ferguson.
Fort Mills next home game will
be played with Chester Saturday
afternoon. The Chester boys are
said to have fast team which
recently played Great Falls to Il
standstill and the locals are not
expecting to be able to loaf on
the job and land at the top Of the
heap.

Suggestion That People Choose
Heads Of Offices.

An interesting suggestion which.
should 1t be adopted by the Re-
PUBLICAN national administration,
would affect the selection of a
postmaster for Fort Mill, as il
would postmasters throughout the
country generally, Is that the peo.
pie be allowed to elect their own
postmasters by a direct vote of
the patrons Of the office. The idea
although advanced and given pub.
licity during the last ten days. is
not new one. Several years ago
the plan was first put before the
postoffice committee of the SEN
ate and there given serious con-
sideration, but those in control
dad not consider it wise to adopt
such plan then and the sugges-
tion was almost lost sight of until
1t bobbed up in Washington anew
a few days ago.
1t is said that President Hard
ing does not want to GO back to
the old spoils system that was
prevalent before President Wilson
issued his executive order calling
for an examination for postmast-
ers. He has been urged to rescind
the order. appoint Republicans
and then have them put under
civil service. Under the proposed
election plan, in the South prac-
tically all postmasters would be
Democratic, while in most commu-
mites In the North it would mean
Republican postmasters.
II the plan should be adopted.
each city and town would provide
for its election to select its own
postmaster. Every eligible voter
ir such city or town could take
part in the election and there
could be no question of the fitness
Of the man thus selected because
he would be the choice Of the peo-
pie Of the Office in which he would
serve.

The Anderson Motor company
announces that shipments were
made the past month Of more than
100 cars and that orders are in
hand for about 200 cars to be ship
ped this month, says the Rock Hill
Evening Herald. The company
expects to get these cars out dur
ing the month. This is q rate of
manufacture which, if maintained,
will bring the business of the An
derson company back to normal,
or about the point of production
which had been reached when the
business depression hit the coun-
try last year.

Rev. q. Q. Epps Resigns From
Darlington Churches.

A recent issue of the Darlington
News and Press tells Of the rsig-
nation of the Rev. G. G. Epps, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. s.. H. Epps Of
Fort Mill township, as pastor Of
the Central Baptist church of Dar-
lington, as follows: S
+ "The members of the Central
Baptist church we're surprised and
saddened Sunday morning, when
their pastor. the Rev. @. C. Epps,
rendered his resignation. One Of
the leading members of the church
who had to be out of town Sun
day was the only one who knew
OF the pending resignation. Those
who know Mr.. Epps know that he
is filled with the zeal to preach
the gospel to all, and it was his
first intention to work in the for
eign missionary field. Good rea-
sons prevented this and Mr.. Epps
then accepted a position Of etew-
ardship and evangelistic work
with the joint boards of State and
home missions for South Carolina.
Mr.. Epps has deeply endeared
hismself to his congregation, and
when he made his wishes known
to them Sunday all were much
touched and affected. He was
firm in his desire to do evangelis-
tic work and his resignation was
accepted with sincere regret. Mr..
Epps conducted services every Sun
day at the Central Baptist church
and preached in the afternoon and
evenings at the Second Baptist
church, the Dovesville Baptist
church and the High Hill Baptist
church, His ministry has been
most acceptable at these charges
and his departure will be source
OF sorrow and regret to ALL"
Mr.. Epps and his family came
to Fort Mill last week and are
now at his fathers home in Gold
Hill, where they will spend the
summer. Mr.. Epps' first stew
ardship conference began in SEN
