AN INTERESTING PARTY

A unique entertainment in the
form of an Apron party was given
by Mrs. George Green at her home
On Thursday afternoon from four to
six O'Clock. Tiny little aprons with
an appropriate verse, asking that a
penny for each inch of your waist
measure be put in the pocket had
been sent out. Seventy dollars was
received and this was divided be-
tween Circles Three and Four of the
Presbyterian church.
The officers OF the Auxiliary gra-
ciously assisted Mrs. Green and Mrs.
Carter in receiving the guests. A de-
-licious salad course was served.
1t was most fitting that Mrs.
Green should give this benefit party
for the Presbyterian church, for
which she has labored so earnestly
from it's beginning.
Many of her friends responded to
her clever invitations with verse as
well as pennies. Three OF them were
as follows:
To measure my waist, I am told,
And give for each inch, not of gold )
But of pennies, as many as the tape
line doth say,
On this ninth day of February.
1 have measured with care,
Regret. not to be there,
And send thirty cents to be fair -

To the ladies of the Presbyterian
church,
am sending some money, though
not very much,
For this an age, when we all must
thrifty,
Or should certainly send you more
than fifty.
Fifty inches for waist does sound a
little strange,
But I guess you won't object to the
extra change.
Success to your party, may your
plans all succeed,
1t gives me pleasure your attractive
call to heed.
Mrs Walter F. Woodard
Thirty was my waist in my youthful
days,
But now I've changed my waistful
weighs,
So now it's thffty-six or thereabout.
But count forty to leave no doubt.
To be waistful it some folks pays.
So Iehope you'll profit by my waist
full weighs.
am sending my apron back in haste
That you may pocket what waist.
On account of sickness can not
come,
As would like to. to Mrs. Green's
home,
Since the occasion I can not grace,
You'll miss seeing my handsome face
TO the Presbyterians I would express
Ny heartiest wish for their success.

BASKETBALL STUFF.

The Wilson High School girls
quint lost to Raleigh here last night
in a hard fought basketball game.
Raleigh winning by the score of "a
to %. In the first half the locals led
in the scoring, but Raleigh was able
to overtake them and finally win out
by the large margin of 10 points.
Daphne Raper, Elsie Barnes, and Ra-
,chel Daniels featured for. the locals:
while Miss Weaver and Miss Scott
did the star work for the visitors. One
iof the largest crowds of the season
witnessed the game and even though
the score was against them. they
were well pleased with the locals.
The girls basketball team of the
Gardner's School swamped the Stan
tonsburg girls five yesterday after
noon o nthe Gardner's court, win
ming by the score OF % to IL, the
game in spite of the score was a good
one, with both teams playing con-
sistent ball throughout the contest.
It was the all round team play of the
Gardner's quint which won the con-
test. .s
Gardeners boys five lost to the
Stantonsburg boys, yesterday after
noon in the County Basketball
League, the Stantonsburg, quint win,
ming by the score of "a to IL. Both
these quints are new to the cage
game, and both have been putting
out good basketball. The race for the
trophy cup is young yet, and the
fans feel certain that these fives will
make a showing in the title fight.
Lucama goes in the lead in both
the boys and girls league, by winning
the basketball battles yesterday af-
ternoon from the strong Rock Ridge
team. The boys game was easily the
best contest of the day, both teams
playing hard and fast for the victory.
Time after time the score was tie,
but in the last few minutes of play
the Lucamaites were able to gain the
lead by tremendous squirt, winning
by 26 to 10 score. Superior floor
work, guarding and shooting enabled
the Lucama girls to win their game,
which was a fast one, and was hard
fought from start to finish. The score
at the final whistle was 20 to II in
Lucama's favor.

CALL TO WOMEN.
Mrs. Williams Urges That They
Attend Club Meetings.


The Times is requested to print
the following communication, ad-
dressed to the women of York
county, from Mrs. Annie Gaines
Williams of Greenwood, chairman
OF the South Carolina League Of
Women Voters:
Please allow me to call your
attention to the fact that the va
riouS Democratic clubs are to
meet on the fourth Saturday of
this month for reorganization and
to elect delegates to the county
convention. which will be held on
Monday, May l. Since the aver
age voter comes into direct con-
tact with the management of her
party only at the club meetings
1t is urged that every woman who
has attained her majority, or who
will become 81 years of age be-
fore the general election in No
vcmber. attend the meeting which
will be held in her precinct on
Saturday, April %.
"Of course it is taken for
granted that each club in electing
delegates to the county cOnven-
tiOn will provide for fair repre-
sentation of women, but since
time immemorial it has been the
custom to select men only, this
provision may be overlooked un-
less women are present as u re-
mnder that they also are citizens.
Then, too, the delegation chosen
by the county convention to the
State convention should be com
posed of both men and women,
and woman as well as man
should be selected to represent
the county on the State Demo
cratic executive committee. The
Democratic party now requires
that the national executive COM
mlttce shall comprise two men,
bcrS. man and woman, from
each State, Mrs. Julian b. Salley
OF Aiken being our representative.
In conclusion let me say that
the 18th amendment gives the
vote alike to the woman who
wanted it and the woman who
thought she did not want it. Nei-
ther has the right to neglect it.
1T now becomes just as much the
duty OF every woman in South
Carolina to use her ballot for the
public welfare as it has for gen
eratiOns been the duty of our men
to employ the franchise for the
best interest of the State. Shall
we prove less mindful and wOr-
thy of the trust than they?"

Lawlessness Due to War.

The marked prevalence of law
lessness throughout the country
during the last few years is part
Of the wars aftermath in the Opin-
ion expressed by Judge Bowman
of Orangeburg Monday morning
at the opening of the April term
of court in York. Judge Bowan
said that the history of wars was
that they left decentralization in
their train and that the recent
conflict had proved no exception
to the rule. In his charge to the
grand jury, Judge BOwan urged
that the grand jurors use their in
fluence to bring about II senti-
ment opposed to lawlessness.
Court faced congested docket
when it opened Monday morning,
but so large was the number Of
defendants pleading guilty that
all eases ready for trial will be
disposed of before the end of the
week.

Many Hear Noted Speakers.

The meeting at the Fort Mill
Baptist church last Friday morn
ing in the interest of the IS mill
ion campaign was well attended,
not only by local members of the
church but by number from
Flint Hill and other churches. In
spring addresses were made by
the Rev. Dr. ii. A. Bagby of
Greenwood, former pastor Of the
First Baptist church of Ches-
ter, and DIR. j. w. McGlothlin.
president OF Furman university.
who is also president of the Bap-
tist General Board of South Caro-
lima.
Before the hour for the service
at the church DIR. McGlothlin
spoke briefly to the Fort Mill
graded school. He stressed the
cultivation Of brain power and
urged the pupils to hang on to
every problem confronting them
like dog to snake till all the
resistance was shaken out of it.
Dr. McGlothlin closed his helpful
address to the children by saying
that character was the main thing
and that this could and shoul be
developed by pupils while in
school; that while intellectual
training is very important, the
final test of man is whether he
is good or bad.

0utwitting the Boil Weevil.

JOnn w. EimS, fleASant talley
farmer, does not purpose that the
boil weevil get the upper hand of
him as it has many farmers in the
sectors of the State where it ap-
parently has taken up Il perma-
nent residence. Realizing that
sooner or later the weevil would
become active in destroying the
cotton crop of his neighborhood,
Mr.. Elms has turned his attention
from cotton growing to dairying
and now has herd of 25 good
cows, from which he delivers
daily about IS gallons of milk i'll
Charlotte. The milk is sold in the
main in quart bottles at Is cents
each and is delivered at the door
stoop Of his customers.
Another Pleasant Valley farmer
who also is operating a dairy and
like Mr.. Elms finds his customers
in Charlotte il Arthur Hall. The
milk from both dairies is deliver
ed by motor truck and notwith-
standing the distance of about 20
miles to Charlotte, good roads to
that city insure prompt deliv-
cries, regardless Of weather con-
ditions. =

New Church for Rev. Mr.. Bales.

Fort Mill friends of the Rev.
Porter NJ. Bales, pastor of the
First Baptist church of Greer,
who was reared in the upper sec
tion of Fort Mill township, will
learn with interest that at a con-
Sregational meeting Of his church
held few days ago it was de-
cided to build new church to
cost $4,000. Sunday the canvass
ing committee visited the homes
of the members and $35. 900 was
reported as the amount of sub
scriptiOns secured. The cOngre-
CATION voted to 60 into the build.

WOULD FOOL FARMERS.
Republican Tariff Bill Drawn in
the Interest of Profiteers.

1t should be understood in ad-
vance that the Democrats in Con-
gress have had no hand or part in
the framing of the tariff bill re-
Gently reported i'll the senate, says
a Washington dispatch to The
Times. They were not called in
until the tinkering OH the bill had
been completed, and were then
permitted to cast vote OH report
ing the bill, but having had no
opportunity to see it or study it
they naturally voted against it.
1t is profiteers tariff from
start to finish and if enacted in
it's present form will greatly in
crease the high cose of living. 1t
displays throughout an ignorance
of even the elementary principles
of economics. The rates of the
bill are higher than under the
Payne-Aldrich act against which
the people revolted i'll 1910 and
elected Democratic congresses for
the following eight years.
In this bill, as in the emergency
tariff act, passed by the Repub-
licans last year. another effort is
made to fool the farmer by plac-
ing high duties OH agricultural
products, but the opponents of
the bill contend that the expert
ence of the farmer following the
passage of the emergency tariff
act was that prices of all his prod
uctS declined to . point at which
it was Improbable to ship them
and compelled him to burn his
corn while millions were starving
III Europe for lack of his unsafe
able products, which has taught
him for all t;ne that what he
needs is not tariffs but markets.
Although tl.r bill itself has not
been published and only it's most
glaring defects are yet apparent.
it is already manifest that opposi-
tiOn to the bill is not to be con
fined to Democrats. but that the
Republicans themselves are divid-
ed and opposition to it may be
expected not only from Republi-
can senators but from large see
tiOn of the Republican press.

SOUTH PULLING FOR FORD.
Wants Muscle Shoals Turned Over
to Detroit Man.

1t anyone north of the Mason
and Dixon. line is of the opinion
that anyone but Henry Ford
would be welcome at Muscle
Shoals as operator of the govern
ment's huge waterpower and nj
trate plants there it would not re-
quire. more than Is minutes in any
community in the nearby States
to convince him that he was
wrong, says an. Atlanta press dis
patch.
Sentiment in favor of the De-
troit manufacturer has taken
place, it is asserted by those in
terested- in the efforts being put
forth in his behalf, for several
reasons, among which are:
Ford s known ability to get the
utmost from a working man and
pay him exceptionally good wa
ges, and his known inclination to
sell his products at a low market
price.
Farmers, business men and just
ordinary citizens believe that un.
less Ford. gets the nitrate plant
and electric plant on the Tennes-
see river the South is going to-
lose the greatest opportunity for
advancement it has ever seen.
They believe that if anyone else
gets the plant possible failure
faces the enterprise.
The average man knows little
of Muscle Shoals. He hears that
Henry Ford wants it, that the
Alabama Power company also is
after it, and that several other
bids have been made for the prop
erty. But, he does not know that
at Sheffield and Florence, Ala,
on the Tennessee river, which
lies south of the supposed indus
trial center Of the United States,
there exists the greatest water
power project in the world. 1t
ranks greater than Niagara itself
in potential power and dwarfs all
other enterprises.
Those lii the South who know
about the river realize that their
bread and butter depend in the
future mainly upon such develop
ments. The South is network
of high tension electricity trans
mission cables. The mountains Of
Georgia, Tennessee and the Caro-
linas abound in excellent water
power sites, and the electricity de-
veloped from them serves the
South, but not DIS it should be
served. TO add to this service
the South wants Henry Ford to
get hold of Muscle Shoals. 1t has
faith in Henry Ford, because OF
his success i'll other enterprises.
Therefore the South has enlist
ed in the Ford cause, and in Geor.
gia and Alabama at least politi-
clans are being told that they
needn't come round next election
uGy unleSS tney are uOlnS tnelr
best to hand over Muscle Shoals
to Henry Ford. There isn't any
mistake about where the South
stands, and, what's more, the
South wants the world to know
wher it stands. Unless MIR. Ford
gets control of Muscle Shoals the
South is very likely to vent it's
wrath somewhere is the neighbor-
hood of u good sized bunch of
congressman. The fact that the
Ford offer contains some features
that some congressman do not
like doesn't influence the folks
of the South.
