DECORATE GRAVES OF
VETERANS OF TWO WARS

The Sons and Daughters of the
Confederacy, assisted by the Ameri,
can Legion post and auxiliary, held
appropriate services at Rosemont
cemetery Sunday afternoon for the
purpose of decorating the graves of
Confederate veterans and soldiers of
the World war.
These services were in connection
with Memorial day which is annually
observed on the 10th day of May. 1t
has been the custome for number
of years in Newberry to decorate the
graves of Confederate heroes on the
Sunday preceding May 10th, but this
year it was decided to hold the SER
vices week in advance to avoid con-
ficting with chautauqua.
Quite a large number of people
gathered at Rosemont at five O'Clock
and the program began with the song;
'How Firm Foundation" by a quar-;
tet composed of Mrs. W. K. Gotwald,
Miss Teresa Maybin, DR.. E. B. Setz,
Ter and Mr.. Gus Houseal. A pray
er was made by the Rev. Mr.. Kerr
after which the quartet sang "Amer,
lea, the Beautiful"
An address was made by Mr.. j. B.
Hunter in which he spoke of the pur,
pose of these memorial services. he
stated that they are held, not to keep
alive the bitterness between the sec
, tions, but simply to honor the veter'
ans who have passed and those now
living. He reviewed briefly the his
tory Of the Union from its founda
ton, through the War Between the
States, and on down to the present
dav, emphasizing the loyalty Of the
South to the Union as demonstrated
in the World war.
After Mr.. Hunters address, Am

sensible thing to do, boil weevil or
no boil weevil, and regardless of the
price of cotton. The farmer who
does that is the only one who ever
makes any money growing cotton
when he could make a bale to the
acre.
Great centralized power means
sooner or later the downfall of the
republic, and we are pleased to note
that there are others who are seeing
this danger, and it may be that we
will be able to avert it.
All these agencies have to be sup
ported and the man who tolls in the
field and in the mine must do the job
because there is where our wealth
lies, and all of our living must come
from the ground, and the man who
tills the soil feeds the world.
We have just decided to be still.
No use to batter your head against
a brick wall, but, Doc, don't get TO
be a pessimist. The shower will blow
over after awhile.
Shannon-Simpson
Whitmire, April 2S.-At the Meth
odist parsonage last Sunday morn
ing, April %, at 10 o'clock Miss Ros-
ALVIN Shannon and Mr.. Lewis D. Simp-
son were married by the Rev. j. r.
Simpson. After the ceremony the
Young couple and number OF guests
were given a dinner at the home OF
the bride about miles from Whit
mire. Miss Shannon is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. C. H. Shannon OF
this community. Mr.. Simpson is from
Clinton, S. c., and is connected with
the Southern Express company OF
that place. The young couple have
the good wishes of Whitmire where
Miss Shannon was member, until
recently, of the graduating class OF
the high school.

l stated some time ago that would
attend as many of the closings of the
schools as l could, but some how l
have not been able to get to as many
as l would like. l missed the closing
of the Hunter-DeWal at Jolly Street
last week on account of car trouble
on my return from trip to North
Carolina, and this regret very much
because l was anxious to be present.
This is in the neighborhood of my old
home and have many friends down
there and l always enjoy going
there. And besides have been to
nearly ali the closings of this school
in recent years. The same is true Of
several other schools, but as / said
am going to as many as l can and
hope for the next year even we may
have fewer schools and longer terms
anv more teachers to each school so
that the children may get more edu-
cation for the money we are paying
for education.

erica" was sung, and benedicction
was pronounced by the Rev. Mr. Kerr:
At the close Of the program
wreaths of evergreen, tied with the
u. D. C. colors of red and white,
were placed upon the mounds of the
soldiers.
In another section of the city is
another buryipg ground-fnany peo-
pie in Newberry have loved ones who
lie there. Here also, wreaths were
placed on the last resting places OF
Confederate soldiers. And yet, if
some of those soldiers whom we hon
or and whose memory we revere,
could but see the sad neglect Of that
old cemetery, we doubt if they would
feel that we do honor them. Simply
because Newberry has newer cenl-
etery is no reason why the old one
should receive no care. The greater
portion of this cemetery is covered
with vines and thick underbrush, and
one side seems to be converted into
trash heap, while a set of rusty
bed springs reclines against tomb
stone. If some of the noble men and
women who sleep in that old cem-
etery could see the condition of
things there they might well say,
90 times! O customs! Where in the
world are we?" For the place would
surely be beyond recognition.

REPORT OF VISIT TO NEW
BERRY COUNTY ALMSHOUSE
Made March 81, 1922, by Assistant
Secretary H. c. Brearley

During the past year The Newberry
county almshouse has been improved
by the addition of a new porch to
the superintendent's house, two new
porches to the inmates cottages, and
by the erection of a corn crib and
cow shed.
The food and it's preparation seem
to be unusually good. Much of the
food is raised on the farm; the gar
den is given great care. The attl-
tude. of the authorities is commend
able. The greatest need of the instl-
tuition is for some one to assist IN
caring for the sick and infirm in
mates; several of them are practical
ly helpless. Besides some small re-
pairs are still needed.
In the end it is believed that the
county could more adequately and
economically care for it's dependents
by uniting with neighboring counties
to build and maintain district home
for the care of the aged and infrm.
H. C.. Brearley,
Asst. Secretary.

The spring foods have been some
thing terrible this year. The levees
in the big rivers in the middle west
have broken over and many towns
and much farm land have been flood
ed, and whole lot of this farm land
is cotton land, and yet the price OF
cotton is not in the least disturbed by
it. We have had lots of rain here al
so and much cold weather, entirely
toe cold for cotton. And the curious
part Of it all is that even these things
do not cause a rise in price. And the
papers say there is strong demand
now for cotton goods and many of
the mills are running a double shift
so as to keep up with the orders. If
the price could just get up around
twenty cents so that some of this
warehouse cotton could be made
LIQUID, business would pick up.

NEwBERRY SELLS ROAD BONDS

The sale of road bonds IN the
amount of two hundred thousand
dollars by Newberry county a few
davs ago means that the bad little
stretch of road between Chappells
and Saluda on the road to Green
wood will soon be put in first class
condition. This is said to be the
only bad piece Of road between
Greenwood and Newberry now
Greenwood Index-Journal.
You are not entirely correct as TO
this. The sale of these bonds has no
connection with the completion OF
the little stretch of road from Chap
pells to the river at the Greenwood
county line. We have been waiting
for the federal authorities to get all
the details for the letting of the con-
tract to have tt is work done and the
contract is to be let on the 9th day
of May, we understand, and then the
work of building will be resumed at
an early date.
The contract for the building OF
this little piece of road had been let
when the other portion was built, but
the work was suspended when it was
found the federal aid could be Sc
cured on it, and the delay has been
occasioned on account of the red tape
connected with the federal depart
ment, but now the contract is to be
let soon and we will have good
road. The road to Chappells from
Newberry is one of the best in the
county. We drove over it only few
days ago. The bridge at Bush river
has not been completed and the de-
tour at this place is a little bad but
a fine bridge is being erected and
when completed viii be real bridge.
When this portion of road from
Chappells to the river is completed
there will be fine road all the way
from Columbia to Greenwood and on
to Donalds and if six miles in there
to Honea Path was built there would
be a fine road all the way to Walhal-
la by way of Anderson. And we sup
pose the road from Belton to Green
vile is good.

The Anderson folk raised a large
sum for the purpose of building no.
tel, and formed a hotel association
and purchased a lot, and then, the
other day after talking about the
need of a hotel for years, decided to
disband, or liquidate, we believe they
call it, and when they did they killed
the best thing ever undertaken for
the city of Anderson. A good hotel
is a great asset for any town. The
same thing was done in Union some
time ago, we understand, and both
Anderson and Union are greatly IN
need of a modern hotel, if we may
be permitted to say it.

THE DAY OF AGENTS


It begins to look like, folly for a
man to save anything much in this
country any more unless it is enough
to invest in tax-exempt securities,
specially set apart for the rich and
well-to-do. There is such a swarm
of government agents riding up and
down the country, drawing good sal
aries and doing very little except
nose into everything, from putting
the baby to sleep by law, to selling
fifty dollars worth of pecans, until
freedom has about given it's last gasp.
We dislike to herd with the pessi-
mists but we must agree with the Co.
lumbia Record that there is Won
derful similarity in the signs of the
times now and those preceding the
downfall of Rome. There are en-
tirely too many people ensconced IN
swivel chairs and this horde of tax
consumers is rapidly increasing. For
this reason, we can't get enthusiastic
over all this new tangled propaganda
for progressive legislation. The lead
ers, as rule, are after fat and easy
Jobs, to be paid out of the pockets
of those who labor and toll for their
daily bread. It is bad enough in the
state but there are said to be more
federal agents of every hue and
grade than all the state and county
officers combined. Commissions are
piled on commissions, like Ossa on
Pelion, until there is very little for
them to do except draw their stipend
and CAD about in pleasure and idle
ness. It is deplorable outlook and
many of those star-gazing optimists,
with teaspoonful of gray matter
left in their coooanuts, will find 1t out
after it is too late.-Calhoun Times.
You are all correct, Doc, but
faint no use to say nothing about
it." because if you do you will be rat
ed as out of date and a real back
number. We have made bold once
or twice to mention the 1act that II
we kept on multiplying supervisors
and demonstrators and advisers and
experts and directors ano commits
sions and agents and so on and ct
cetera, as Ring Lardner would say,
there will be no one left to supervise
and collect from.
There is entirely too much govern
ment control and government wet
nursing, in our opinion, but what are
you going to do about it. Why the
people are actually paying experts to
60 about the country and tell the far
mers that the only sensible thing for
them to do now is to grow at home
all they need for the farm, and, bless
your dear life, we have been telling
them that very thing free. Of charge

ton of the country. 1t is the only

In speaking of the school situation
in the town of Abbeville and endea-
voring to tell the people the great
need of better school, or of raising
some money to continue the school
term, among other good things said
by the Abbeville Press and Banner,
we find this sentence, and it is so
true that we can not refrain from
quoting it: eve all know too much
law, talk too much politics, talk too
much generally, and do too little for
the public good. Now, that's the
truth, even if we can't prove it to
you" That is well put and is very
true even if it can not be proven, as
the Press and Banner says.

Returning from Vaughnville we
were caught in one of the hardest and
most blindig rains that I have seen
in long time and it rained that way
on US all the way from Silverstre eI
to Newberry. The Chappells high
way needs some attention from the
upkeep man. I have been Dragging
on it as the best of the county, but in
order to maintain that standing and
it is necessary that it have
some work and that pretty soon. I
went over the road again on Sunday
to make a short visit over home. l
heard that some of the folk were sick
and I just ran over for brief stop
to see how they were getting along.
I am glad that I found them improv-
ing and l hope they will be all right
very soon. That read from Chappells
to the river does not get any better
and it is a great relief that the con-
tract is to be let on the 9th, and
hope that it may be finished at the
very earliest period possible. The
Greenwood road needs to be dragged
and scraped and it should be done
right now while the road bed is in
proper condition to receive the treat
ment. The road from Chappells to
Vaugbnville could be improved also,
though it is in better condition than it
was some time ago. But there has
been such great improvement IN
the highways of this county within
the past two years that no one should
ever be heard uttering complaint,
and when I say anything it is not in
the shape of a complaint but simply
as suggestion and to help and CO.
operate with the road authorities.

REPORT OF VISIT TO NEW
BERRY COUNTY CHAINGANG
Made March 81, 1922, by Assistant
Secretary H. c. Brearley

improvements of considerable val
,ue have ben made at the Newberry
rounty ,chaingang during the past
year. Three new tents have been
procured to take the place of those
utterly worn OUT; some additional
blankets have been secured; and a
good provision box has been built.
The sewage is no longer dumped out
on the ground behind the prisoners
tent, the soil pit, however, should be
further away and the refuse should
be covered with at least three inches
of earth each day.
Probably the greatest need of the
camp is for a cook stove. At pres
ent the meals are prepared over an
open fire. At the time of this visit
a heavy rain was falling so that no
fool could be cooked for the next
meal. On March 31st the breakfast
and dinner consisted of fried bacon,
corn bread and syrup. The supper
was of peas, boiled bacon, corn bread
md syrup. Fresh meat and green
vegetables should be added to the bill
of fare whenever the rather meagre
appropriation will permit.

REPORT OF VISIT TO
NEWBERRY COUNTY JAIL
Made March 81, 1922, by Assistant
Secretary H. c. Brearley

The Newberry county jail is in its
usual good condition. Since last visit
a concrete fence has been built along
one side of the property and the low
ground filled in with sand. The gar
den and grounds are most commend
able.
Almost the only fault that could be
found with the jail was that the bed
ding is not as clean as it has been
formerly. If the mattresses were sup
piled with removable covers, they
would last longer and would be more
easily kept in a sanitary condition.
AS has been reported previously,
this jail is a credit to the people OF
Newberry county and to the authori-
ties in active charge.

ure to me to see so many of the peo-
ple of the community present on this
occasion, and to not the great inter-
est they are taking in their school,
and to witness the fine exercises by
the children. And this same thing
was true on all three of the occasions
connected with the closing. l am
sorry that some one who was present
has not written story about all
three occasions for the newspapers.
: The attendance at this scnool the ses-
sion just closing has been very fine,
and the work by the children and
teachers has been excellent. There
are some twenty-six or more children
in the high school grades, and the op-
portunity is knocking at the door for
high school in this community, and
l do hope the people will open the
door and let him in for the sake of
the many fine and bright children in
the community. This plan was IN
the mind of the trustees when they
built the present building ten years
ago, the building in the near future
of high school, and so the plan for
the building was selected with that
in view and only half the building
put up, just as was done at Pomaria.
The last Friday l went to a picnic
at Vaughnville. DR.. Derrick and Mr..
w. B. Wallace went along. The
building here has not been completed
and the work has been delayed on ac-
count of the delay of some material
in reaching there, but we hope to
have the building completed by the
last of May, in time to get it accept
ed by the state before the first OF
June. The school which was taught
in room at the residence of Mr.. K.
E. Watkins after the burning of the
school building last fall closed the
week before. The school was taught
the past session by Miss Sarah Wat
kins and she did some fine work here.
When we get our building completed
I think we will have the best appoint
ed and most convenient school build
ing in the county of this class OF
buildings, and 1 hope to see three or
four more of the same character
erected during the coming summer.
We held our meeting in the auditorl-
um and while it was not. completed
and the day was bleak it was much
more comfortable than the out doors
would have been. Rev. G. R. Petit
grew opened the exercises with
brief invocation and then l made a
talk to'the people and so did DR.. Der
rick. l am sorry the weather was so
unfavofable, but am delighted that
so many of the people came out even
in the face of the disagreeable day.
The dinner table was spread in the
house. I have attended a good many
picnics in my day and have helped to
eat good many picnic dinners, but
am sure that I never was present at
better and more elaborate dinner
than was served by these good people
last Friday. The good things to eat
were there in great abundance and
everything was well prepared and
they had also a pot of hash and every
one was agreed that it was the best
hash he ever ate. 1t was fine. When
we get the building completed we are
going to have another meeting and
we want all the people from the coun-
try round about to come out and help
us dedicate it to the great cause of
education and community service.
