THE HERALD AND NEWS

that this section is one Of the finest
farming sections of South Carolina.
And it seemed to me that the farm
ers up this side are further along
with their farming operations than
we are down here. The farms look
nice and there are fine homes all
along the way nicely painted and
everything has the appearance OF
good living. l saw some cotton up
to a good stand and just lots of corn
planted, but then these farms up this
side are owned and worked largely
by white people. And there is just
lots of fine oats and wheat all along
the road from Newberry to Walhal-
Ia.

some top soil very much.

/ came back to Prosperity and
drove on down to Jolly Street, but
the school had closed when l arrived,
they were having examinations and
had gotten through a little earlier
this day. From Jolly Street l came
on by Pomaria and Little Mountain.
The roads were bad down this way
though the county has recently built
two bridges on the road from Poma-
ria to the Mountain which were very
much needed.

The cold weather continues but the
rain has ceased-From The State of
April 10, Twenty Years Ago.
So the reader will see that the
weather we have had for the past
two days is not at all unusual, be-
cause in addition to the rain twenty
wears ago there was cold and posi-
bly frost.

1t was a fine trip and I am glad
that the folk stood it so well, and that
they enjoyed it, and it afforded me
a great deal of pleasure to give them
the pleasure of going. In fact there
is more real pleasure in life in giving
pleasure to other people than in hav-
ing them give you pleasure. l love
to serve other people. Now this may
not be interesting to some of the
readers of this paper, but it is a good
filler and if there be any who are
not interested in the reading why
they may skip it and l will not be the
least offended.

I wanted to say that while in West
minister l called on Editor Gossett
and found him happy and contented.
have often wished that I was prac-
tical printer and linotype operator
and had paper just like Editor Cos
sett has in small town mad could do
my own work and then l could be
my own boss and work when l want
ed to and play when play time came.
The fact of the matter is no man has
any business in the newspaper game
in small town even the size of New
berry who is not in position to take
up any department of the work from
the printers devil on down to the
editor of the paper, because other
wise he is so dependent upon some
one else that he never knows just
where he is at. You can't just step
out on the street and pick up a limo
type operator or aajob printer like
you can some one to sell calico or
carry bundle. So long as ] was in
charge of the paper, however, the
boys were always loyal to the shop
and we hae sent out some of the best
printers and linotype operators in
the state. And this;is no complaint.
l always had a rule that no perfect
man could work in the shop, and only
those who were willing to learn were
wanted.

left Newberry at o'clock Friday
morning and the run was fine to
Chappells, and while the road from
there to the river is bad, yet it is not
as bad as it has been as Mr.. Martin
has had it temporarily worked up
cut we can stand that bad piece since
we see that the contract to build it IS
to be let on the 9th of May, and in
a very short time we should have a
good road all the way to Greenwood.

Our next stop was Walhalla and
we reached that city at the foothills
at about 4 80 o'clock and l told some
one that my little car made the run
without changing gear for any
grade except one of the hills between
Chappells and the river, and | am so
proud of it that l have to tell it.
Coming back l made the trip alone
as the old folk wanted to spend a
week, and they could not have made
the trip with me any way on account
of the rain. l did not mention it,
but | had in the party Miss Julia
Zimmerman, my niece, and Miss
Connie Crouch of Johnston, a friend
of Miss Zimmerman, who was visiting
her. They remained in Walhalla al
so. 1t began to rain little on me as
! passed Mr.. Clint Summers and
there had been heavy rains all the
way down and the road was not as
good as the going trip, but l made 1t
all right and reached Newberry
around O'Clock.

some work done on it. 1t seems to
me that the Anderson roads are wild
er than the Greenwood or the New
berry roads.
l made no stop from the old home
until we reached Honea Path and
here \only for a few minutes to speak
to my friend Geo. Moore, and then
we made brief stop at Anderson to
speak to Geo. Browne and Mrs. Pat
rick of the Daily Mail. At Honea
Path l met gentleman who said he
was a first cousin of Mr.. J. R. Thorn
ton of Newberry Seems to me he
said his name was Traynham. l made
a stop also at the fine country home
of Mr.. H. C. Summers just this side
of Pendleton. I told Clint over at
the meeting of the Red Men that l
was going to take this trip and that
I would make a short stop with him.
We reached there just little after
the dinner hour, but as we had lunch
along we just asked Mr.. Summers to
let US rest and eat our own lunch,
and while he wanted to fix dinner we
would not permit that. My mother
and father enjoyed the rest and were
very much refreshed for the remand
er of the trip. Mr.. and Mrs. Foster

brother and keeping house for them.

some years ago. The Summers have
one of the most delightful homes in
the state, and every convenience that
YOU could desire. 1t is one of the
old summer homes of the Adgers of
Charleston that Mr.. Summers, Sr.,
bought some years ago and but re-
Gently the house has been overhauled
and now it is delightful summer or
winter. 1t is most pleasant place to
spend few hours, and for that mat
ter to spend longer time. Mr.. Sum
mers makes you feel that he is glad
to see you and Mrs. Foster is nice
and pleasant and so is MIR. Foster and
Jack too though / did not. see him.
1t was not only a great rest for the
party but a real pleasure to spend
this little time with these good folk.
After resting for an hour and half
with Mr.. Summers and the good peo
pie at his home we drove on to Pen
dleton and made a brief call to see
W. B. Aull and his family. Mr.. w.
B. Aull and his wife are former citl-
zens of Newberry and Mr.. Aull is
nephew of my father. 1t will be
good news to their many friends and
relatives in Newberry to know that
they are doing we'll and are in good
health. | intended to stop to see
Ben NJ. Aull, son of w. B. Aull, but
we did not feel that we had time. l
did make a brief stop at Clemson so
that the folk might speak to William
Aull and Hubert Aull who are of the
faculty of this institution. They
were glad to see US. William is the
son of w. B. Aull at Pendleton and
Hubert is a son nof John C. Aull of
Pomaria. John C. Aull has a son
who is student of Clemson, John c.,
Jr., but we did not see him. l have
seen in the papers since coming home
that Hubert is to be married some
time in the coming summer. Well,
they are bright boys and are making
good at Clemson. / am glad.

Canadian Bird Sanctuary.

Canada has made Point Pelee-
the most important bird area in On
tario-into a Dominion park, so that
it may be maintained as a bird
sanctuary. Moreover, 2S other sane
tuaries have been established in other
parts of Canada, and the bearers Of
guns or any other kind of hunting
gear are forever excluded from them.
Two of the most picturesque reserves
are at Perez Rock and Bonaventure
island, both in the st. Lawrence es-
tuary. The former shelters huge
colonies of crested cormorants and
herring-gulls, and in the latter the
gannet abounds, together with its
customary associates, the kittiwake,
razor-bill aux, gullemot, and putin.

Coral AtoUs.

According to the Investigations Of
Seurat among the Pacific islands, there
is a slow elevation going on there,
which, by lifting the reefs gradually
above the waves, preserves them from
erosion at the top, and enables vegeta-
tion and certain animal forms of a
terrestrial character to exist there.
This is quite in opposition to Oar
wins idea that the atolls were formed
by the gradual submergence of small
islands, that the coral insects built up
cncircling reefs as the islands sank.
Seurat shows that the elevation of
the islands is a general phenomenon,
hut variable in amount, some islands,
like Aukeua, in the Gambler archipela-
go, rising rapidly, and others very
slowly. The dora and the fauna
Of these islands are confined to very
few species, although seen from a dis
lance, some of them appear to be very
rich in vegetation.-Christian Science

Under New Management
State College of Agriculture COnsOl-
idated Under New Managing
Committee

The initial step of consolidating the
agricultural activities of the State
University of New Jersey under a
distinct College of Agriculture was
taken Dec. 16, when the five members
of the Agricultural Committee of the
Board of Trustees of the University
and file representatives of the Board
of Visitors met at New Brunswick and
organized as the managing Committee
of the College of Agriculture.
The managing Committee consists

and William Leupp, of New Bruins
wick; DIR. William S. Myers, of New
York. and Judge Alfred F. Skinner,
of Newark; from the Board of Trust
ees; and Egbert T. Bush of Stockton,
Ephraim T. Gill, of Haddonfield; JOS
eph Lerocque, of Bernardsville; Will
bur Beckett, of Swedesboro; and
William H. Reid, of Tennent, from the
Board of Visitors. All were present
but Messrs. Lerocque and Gill. W. Ed
win Florence was elected permanent
chairman of the committee.
DR.. ]. G. Lipman, Dean of the Col
lege of Agriculture met the Com
mittee and outlined their functions.
This step, he explained, is in line with
the increasing field of service which
fine University is rendering to the agri-
cultural interests of the State, and had
the endorsement of both the Board OF
Trustees and the Board of visitors:

A eat has nine lives, which probably
accounts for the miraculous escape
from death experienced by a black cat
in Liverpool, Eng, when a tluee-Storg

and left the house before it fell. \

but by some marvellous means escaped
being buried in the crash, and was
afterward seen calmly walking about
