The Old Tavern Bell
Mr.. Horace Hardy. Presents
an Interesting Curio to the
Public Library

Mr. Horace Hardy has presented
to the Public Library's Museum
as an object of unusual interest the
old bell that was used in front of
the. ancient inn that stood at the
corner Of Main and Liberty SITS.
For many years that old bell
served as a faithful means of COM
.munication between the guests and
the landlord; and, if its tongue
could tell its secrets, it would have
many Interesting revelations to
make. It is certain that it re-
quires very little imagination to call
up the picture of the boarders.
many Of whom had their places of
business at some distance, being
called to meals by the ringing Of
the bill.
Now the old bell is green with
age, perhaps, with envy. with age,
for many years have slipped by
since it. called its .boarders to their
meals; with envy, for it has
long realized that the hotels Of to-
day with their many modern ap-
pliances have rendered useless the
life Of the old tavern bell.
All Of Sumter's citizens viii feel
an interest in looking upon an old
curio that tells, IN its now silent
suggestiveness of other days with
their quaint and interesting cas-
toms. -

himself had only one passion In life,
which was the Protestant passion of
prejudice. He had ever been a fol-

luton was a crime against humanity,
a danger To the future of civilization,
a miserable orgy Of unworthy millions.
He had resisted more vigorously
than most men the progress of revolu-
tionary sentiments In Ireland. He was
aware that his son had far less rigid
opinions than himself; that he even
defended Wolfe Tone and Thomas EN-

That was why he had delight In slap
ping his son in the face. whenever
possible, with the hot pennant OF vic
tory for British power.
He was a man OF irascible tempera-

evaporation. He was small Of stature,
with a round face. eyes that sudden

none of the handsomeness of his son,

Good farmers can and do grow bread
wheat. 1t may be a debatable issue whether we
ought to put in a larger acreage but this is sure:
We must make every acre produce wheat of fine
quality and forsake all our slipshod methods in
growing wheat as we should in breeding COWS
Mere reduction of acreage will not solve
the problem.
In order to succeed. we must grow more good
wheat on a less acreage. 1t is much better to grow, for
instance. eighty acres of fine spring wheat, forty acres of
a cultivated crop. forty acres of a clover crop. than to
attempt to grow $50 acres of wheat which has not been
given the proper attention.
If farmers will grow good wheat. there is money
in wheat. II we can grow but the lower grades, there is
no money in it for anyone and the price of this poor
wheat cannot fail to lower the price of even the good
wheat that our good farmers are growing.
