In addition 20 this relief, Sir James
Craig's government pledges itself to
secure the restoration OF the ex-
PEELED Catholic workmen wherever
practicable.
On the part Of the Free State, It
is agreed by Collins and Grimth that
the activities OF the Irish Republican
army are to cease in Ulster.
or course no student OF the Irish
situation believes that peace will ar
rive Immediately. In the north there
are armed fanatics OF both sides who
do not want peace. They feed on
passion, riot, arson and murder.
Even with a new police system, Bel
fast can no more be expected to dis
pose of these criminals in a day or
a month than New York could be
expected to rid itself instantly Of
all It's gunner. In future. however,
, the victim Of an outrage can be GER

composed of both denominations

sympathy with the criminal
The effect of the new agreement
on the fate OF the Free State should
be good. Collins and Griffith go
back to Dublin with what amounts
TO political triumph. They bring
promise to the Catholics Of the
south that their coreligionists in the
north will have fair treatment. This
should still the cry OF the irrecon-
cilables that the Free State had
abandoned the Catholics OF Ulster.
Yet Collins and Grimth have tre-
mendous tasks They must remove
all Republican army soldiers from
Ulster. In the south they must either
win the whole army over to their
side or else recruit new troops from
the loyal Free Staters and disarm
the irreconcilables. They must pro-
vide very soon the opportunity for
southern Ireland to express itself
freely at the general elections. These
are jobs for brave. wise men.
1t Is no time to despair, however
large the work looms When the
three governments OF Ireland and
England are united in purpose they
| ought to win.

A Good job Done for Ireland
CFrom the New York Herald )

II peace can be secured by con-
certed action on the part Of the
three governments interested, Ire
land will have II. The agreement
signed in London by representatives
OF the Irish Free State and the gov
ernments of Ulster and Great Brit
ain is as good a guaranty OF har-
mony as can be put on paper.
Ulster. which has been severely
criticized in the British press for
leaning to one side in the attempts
to end disorder now deserves praise
for her courage in entering the new
agreement She has. as Winston
Churchill says. rendered a supreme
service TO both Britain and Ireland.
The quelling OF trouble in the north
Of Ireland will have a favorable ef-
feet on the fortunes of the Free
State. The complaint that the Cath
olics were unfairly treated in Ulster
was the strongest argument used by
the followers OF De Valera In the
south. Now Ulster has agreed that
the special police in the troubled
districts Of Belfast and other north
ern cities shall be half Catholic, half
Protestant; that when houses are
searched for arms, the searchers
shall be OF both sects; that COM
plants OF intimidation and outrage
shall be heard by a committee with
equal numbers OF Protestants and
Catholics.
This is going about the business
in practical way. The London con-
| ference declined TO blink the fact
( that in Ulster the desperate situation
was largely the result OF religious
/ feeling centuries old 1t has done
the wise thing IN putting the job OF
stopping disorder into the hands OF
men OF both religions, working to-
gether. More than that. the British
government has agreed to make
large appropriations for relief work
in Ulster and to expend one-third OF
It for the benefit OF the Catholics
! As most OF this relief Is needed In
the Belfast neighborhOod, whore the

fourth OF the population, the divi-
sion is certainly fair to the minority

WASHINGTON. April 5.-Diplo-
mats here recall that the seed OF the
four-power treaty, just ratified by
the Senate, and other arms confer
ence treaties. was sown more than
a century ago in an international
agreement between the United States
and Great Britain
This agreement, proclaimed by
the President OF the United States
in April, 1918. provided for limita-
tion OF armament on the United
States-CanRdian border.
1t made the United States and

BIBLE STORY READER

.
The bible Story Reader" a small
cloth-bound book for adult students
and readers. has recently come from
the presses of the Johnson Publishing
Company, Richmond, Va, the three CO.
Emily Mcng Jones, Mrs. Mary Dunklin
Gray and Miss Will Lou Gray. AS the
name implies and as is intmated in
the preface, the book is intended pri-
marily as text book in adult schools
and for reading by those who have had
but the mcrest rudimcnts Of an educa-
tion. Publication in book form fol-
lowed a wide demand for the same
lstories previously published in bulle-
tin form and used extensively in this
and several adjoining states.
The authors took advantage Of the
ycarning Of the unlettered to read the
bible in order to provide an incentive
to perfect their reading. Beginning
with the story OF Creation and contin-
uing with familiar old and new testa-
ment storier, the book is interspersed
with word groups and sight words
for the assistance of the teacher, ana
is closed with q drill in phonetics.
Handsome plates in colors add to the
interest Of the stories. Large type
make for easy reading.
The book will no doubt meet much
needed want in the fight against illit-
eracy and at the same time will prove
an inspiration to it's readers.

LAURENS, S. G., MAY >, 1922

If the women haven't arrived, they
are certainly on their way, speaking
in the language OF the streets. A few
Of them attended the club meetings,
a few the county conventions and a
few will attend the state convention.
We have a feeling, however, that they
don't just like the thing and are only
doing their part to hold up their end
of the log. The real test of whether
or not the women want to vote or
bring up men in the way they should
vote will come after the novelty wears
off. The immediate effects Of women
voting has so far been wholesome, but
it will yet remain to be seen whether
the results will be wholly beneficial
n news item in The Abbeville Press
and Banner several days ago told OF
the conviction Of two men for cruelty
to animals. The men had been ar
rested for severely beating a horse.
Cruelty to animals is a crime taken
100 lightly in most small towns and
some large towns. Very few things
are calculated to arouse the feelings
or sympathetic people than mistreat-
ment of dumb brutes, yet the obioc-
ton to the notoriety that would at
tach TO interference in such cases and
natural aversion to interference with
police duties dctcrS the average citi-
zen from doing what in such cases his
neart prompts him to do. We have
heard that local police have been
more or less active in the suppression
OF this real vice, but we feel that the
assistance and moral support of the
public would be great help to them.
me Advertiser counts the success
fnl launching Of the cotton co-opera-
tive association as among the most i'm
postant financial events in the history
or cotton culture in the South. While
II is true that similar organization
among southern cotton farmers in the
past might have been productive of
inuch good, 1t is possible that an cal
Ter organization might not have been
as successful as this one promises to
be. Before the advent Of the boil
"eeVil a successful campaign to Sc
cure profitable price for cotton
might have been wrecked by the well
known tendency Of cotton producers to
increase their output, but now that
production OF cotton is very much
limited by the weevil it will hardly
be possible to grow crop large
enough to prove burden on the mar
ket. However, it must not be inferred
that the troubles OF the farmer in the
future will be ended, even with hun
dred per cent organization, but the
cooperative plan in selling will no
doubt be boon to farmers who can
successfully combat the boil weevil.
