No Room For Criticism

Exchange.
In the city of London there are
hundreds of thousands of people un-
employed million Of them in
Great Britain.
Empty stomachs are as numerous
as the leaves upon the trees.
One section of London is gaunJ ard
filled with misery. There is no work,
no money, and but little bread.
In another section-the center of
aristocracy and fashion-2ayety
reigns supreme. Immense sums Of
money are spent on the pleasures o. a
single night. 1t flows continually in
the production of social excitement.
There is no want, no hunger, no
lack of bread there.
But are we Americans in a posi-
tion to criticize England's aristocracy
for it's frivolity in the face Of rnem-
puoyment and misery?
We are not.
Millions of people are out of en-
ployment in this country. Our cities
swarm with homes where the larders
are empty and little stomachs are
more so.
Yet in Atlantic City prize fight
is to be pulled off between an Amer
lean and a Frenchman-between
Dempsey and Carpenthier.
Men will journey from every state
in the union to see that fight. They
will pay from $40 to $1,000 a seat
to see two men beat each other up.
A broken nose smeared with blood
will elicit no feeling of pity or con-
cern--only renewed hcv's of JOY or
chagrin.
There will be no empty stomachs at
that fight. No little children crying
for bread will witness that glory con-
test of brutality.
The money spent for the privilege
of seeing that fight would furnish
roval feast for all of the people in
the United States who now hunger
for bread.
Instead, it will not allay the suffer
ins of one.
No, we are in no position to criti-
cize the English, or any other nation
of people, so far as squandering our
substance and neglecting our unem-
poyed are considered.

Mr.. CLAUDE L. COUNTS
HAS BARN BURNED

On Sunday morning the 10Th, at
5 o'clock, Mr.. C. L. Counts, who owns
what is known as the Simon P. Long
place in No. 10 township, discovered
that his barn was on fire and got to
the burning building just in time to
rescue his 3 mules and milk cows
from being burned to death.
The fire started on the loft and Mr..
Counts can give no cause for how it
originated as he says neither he nor
his boys smoke or carry matches and
he can't think any one had such an i'll
will towards him as to set the build
ing on fire.
He lost 30 shocks wheat, 100 shocks
oats, between two and three thous-
and bundles fodder, ~ bushels peas,
25 bushels cotton seed, one gasoline
engine, one cotton seed cutler, one
wood saw hogs, 2 grain cradles and
several o.ner farm implements such
as hoes, gears, etc. His corn crib ad-
joined the barn and contained about
100 bushels corn and was also de-
stroyed but Mr.. Counts, with the as
sistance of his neighbors, carried and
poured water on the burning crib
saving about 80 bushels Of corn fit
for use.
Mr.. Counts carried $100 insurance
with the Farmers Mutual Insurance
company.
Thinking some one else would make
this report is why I haven't reported
this misfortune sooner.

Mrs. Davenport and DR.. Ellesor who
so faithfully attended her until the

H. Thompson Long

On Tuesday, May oath, at his late
home near Hodges, S. c., the spirit
of H. T. Long took it's fight and went
to the God who gave it. Mr.. Long
was born in Newberry county, but
came to this section good many
years ago. He was the son Of the late
George H. Long.
Mr.. Long made farming his life's
occupation and in years gone by he
was looked upon as one of the best
farmers in his section of the country,
but for the past five rheumatism
would not allow him to work. In his
business transactions he was ex-
act to each cent and he was a man
who tried to do unto others as he
would have others do unto him. He
was II years of age and member Of
the Trinity Lutheran church near Sa-
luda, S. C.
His remains were laid to rest in the
Hodges cemetery. Rev. Bowers of
the Greenwood Lutheran church con-
Quoted the services, assisted by Rev.
j. E. Mahaffey of Honea Path, S. C.
and Rev. Best of Cokesbury, S. C.
Mrs. DR.. Hutch, Mrs. w. W. Wilson
and Miss Allie Cobb sang sweet!y,
"There is Rest for the Weary"
The popularity Of Mr.. Long was
attested by the large number of peo-
pie in attendance, with many and
beautiful floral tributes that covered
the grave.
Those who acted as pallbearers
were: j. K. burst of Greenwood,
James Graham, Mack Cocheran, Bob
Hodges of Hodges, John. Townsend,
Allen Palmer, Tom Wicker and Tom
Patterson Of Cokesbury.
Mr.. Long leaves dear and be-
loved wife who was daughter of Cap
tain Willie Wyse of Batesburg, to
mourn in grief. God keep and pro-
tect each of you until the time comes
for you to depart.
A. Friend.

Mr.. E. T. Mayer has been employ

is rapidly making things on the CAM

Some busy (?) fellow is always cir
culating the report that work has
stopped on the paving. The work is
going on, and we confidently look for
more streets to be paved.
When the clouds met above New
berry Saturday afternoon and press
ed the water over the city and por-
tions of the county, the man who only
knows the sign of rain when he sees
the drops falling was satisfied that it
"was raining" 1t was good one,
for which all devout members of
churches gave thanks.
If those who fret and fume Of hot
nights and say they can't sleep on
account of the heat would just COM
pose themselves and quit turning and

much better. The more you fret and
fume the worse it is, and the more
YOU fan the hotter you are after fan
ming. Any one can sleep if he makes
up his mind to stand the heat and be
thankful he is screened in from the
mosquitoes. Imagination has much
to do with your state of mind. And
people lie both ways when they say
they don't sleep. You would die IN
quick time if you did not sleep.
Don't forget to attend the citizens
meeting at the court house tonight,
Tuesday, at Sis o'clock.
Marie Perry, colored, was fined $40
by the recorder. She paid SIS. Jim

it good idea. Talk it up.
Several of the Newbery young
men are enthusiastic over the Lau-

A deputy sheriff in this state is
named Corn. and he is good officer
in capturing whiskey.
The Calhoun Times says citizen
of that place thinks small weekly pa

In the opinion of The Herald and

right. All papers should have strong

why DO WE NEED EN-?
Aggie College Prof, After Twelve
Years of Labor, Has Invented a
New Kind of Grasshopper.

Manhattan. Kan. June 1s.-After
overseeing the living of more than
100000 grasshoppers, covering forty
eight generations of the insect. new
variety of hopper has been propagated.
according to DR.. r. K. Nabours, head
of the zoology department at the Kan
sas State Agriculture college, who has
conducted the experimentation.
The new variety has been liberated
on the plains of Texas to test their
hardihood. Doctor Nabours states that
the new species is the result of twelve
years of experimentation carried on at
the agricultural college in an effort to
test and discover certain laws of
heredity.
The laws that govern the handing
down of the marks and splotches of
color on the back of the, grasshopper
and the development of new ones are
the same as the laws that govern GER
tain characteristics in cows, pigs and
sheep, according to Doctor Nabours
The same laws govern many of the
hereditary characteristics of the hui
man being, such as color blindness
deafness and susceptibility to various
diseases, such as tuberculosis color of
eyes, and susceptibility to drunken
ness and criminality. Doctor Nabours
stated.
Doctor Nabours estimates that II
would require sixteen centuries to OBJ
serve the same developments in the
human species as he has discovered
by using the grasshopper.

1t is reported that the question as 10
whether the United States should pay
the reparations commission for the
German shipping seized by this coun-
try at the outbreak of the war is to
come before that body for determine
tion. But whatever decision is
reached, it can have no binding effect
upon this country. The United States
has no agreement to abide by what the
separations commission may do.
Neither is it likely that congress will
ever authorize payment to the COM
mission or to anybody else for the Ger
man ships captured at the beginning
OF the war. Practically every one ct
the allied nations has enriched Itself
at the expense of Germany thru repa-
rations or indemnities. but the United
states gets nothing from either
source. 1t is true that we paid Spain
$20,00O,000 for the Philippines wher
they We're already ours. So congress.
might take 1t into its head to pay
Germany for her ships. but not any
body else.

JUST FOLKS

GRIEF'S ONLY MASTER.
Into the lives Of all
The tears of sorrow fall.
Into the happiest hearts
Grief drives her. darts;
No door however stout
Can shut Deaths angel out
Vain are the things we prize.
Treasure and pomp's disguise;
They cannat stay the tear
When the true griefs appear
Where Death will strike today
Gold canot bar the way
There Is no joy secure.
No peace that shall endure
No smile that man shall keep
God wills that he must weep,
And in his darkest hour
Vain is all earthly power.
What, then, should guard the gatef
How shall a man be great?
Thru the dark days and long,
What power shall make him strong?
Wherein does courage lie,
Since all ne loves must dies
When SORROW binds his hands.
Helpless the strong man stands
One master only grief
Bows to, and that's belief
Faith that he'll some day know
