It's Your Chum

Writing in an eastern newspaper,
C. N. Grieg, well-known Journalist,
says: "The home paper is your chum,
your pal and intimate friend; the big
city daily is your casual acquaintance;
the magazine is your occasional Wis
i.or. And when it comes to advice,
we trust a chum and an intimate
friend first, don't we?
"You may not know it, but the
small-town paper not only delivers
more friendly and intimate home in
iuence circulation, but it is trusted
far more widely than the big city
':.ailies produced by men so far away
that they can't POSSIBLY be in touch
with your community"
There is advice to remember when
you want to sell scmething-offer it to
those who read the hometown paper,
because they have long ago learned
that they can believe what they see
in its columns. 1t isn't so full of ad-
vertising that your message will be
buried, as often happens to the adver-
tising in big city dailies. If you have
rot learned the truth about adver-
Using in your hometown paper, then
you have not learn all you ought to
know ebout successful merchandising.

National Disarmament
Would be National Suicide

No men hate var SO much as sol
ddiers, especially commanding officers,
who see the horrors of it and view
the situation in the broad lgh. If
death and destruction. And yts the
intelligent officer who realizes that
preparedness il essential to national
life cannot fail TO realize that the talk
of disarmament and of steadily cut
ting down our soiall army is crime
against future generations.
1t has recently been very appropri-
ately said that while we employ $780,
90 p ce in this country to protect
ourselves against the criminals ~
nome, we have an army of less than
one-half to protect ourselves against
possible criminals elsewhere in the
shape Of nations prepared to fiht, and
sometimes eager for the fight, if they
think like Germany that in such a
fight they could win national expan-
sion by looting us.
II an Armistive address General
Porshirg. referring to the conditions
In the East, said:
"'The World War; taught us that
we cannot regard with indifference the
gathering of war clouds in those
regions Of the world in which we do
not appear to be directly Interested
For even with the utmost desire to re-
main aloof from the contest with the
utmos. desire to rema n a,oof from
the contest which lad been waged dur
ing the period extending; from 1914 to
1917 we were drawn into it in defense
Of great principle.
$50 we cannot regard as irrelevant
70 our interests, and as matters of no
concern to our national life the crisis
which periodically arises over the
storm centers Of international strife
1t is no time to abandon our purpose
TO take reasonable precaution for the
future. Since the armistice the ten
sion of conflicting interests has often
almost reached the breaking point,
where, indeed, actal armed conflict
has not been / nprogress.
ALREADY strong pressure has been
cxerted for our inter Iention in the
Near East. Demands are daily made
that an American military force be
dispatched for participation in beh IF
rf our former Allies. Strangely
enough, those vino appeal most loudly
for headlong Intervention are those
who most vociferously condemn any
ard all preparation for sudden emer-
gencies. s."-Manufacturers Record.

Nassau Now Has an
Alert Fire Force

Nassau, Bahama Islands, Nov. 81.
Since last summer when this city
suffered considerable loss by fire of
one of the great winter tourist hotels,
Nassau has had one of the most alert
and efficient fire fighting squads,
equipped with the finest auto appa-
ratus to be bought.
On October 81, last, great alarm,
was felt when residents looked out
of their windows and saw great bill
lowing masses of black smoke pi ing
up from the eastern district of the
town. The ruddy reflection of the
blaze was reflected all over the city.
The fire fighters rushed madly out
to save what part of the lovely resi-
dences could be salvaged.
After fruitlessly searching city and
country for miles to the east, the
dauntless Smoke eaters" returned 70
their station, and sat outside watch.

reported seen in all the islands.

Woman Suffrage in Mexico
Makes Slow Progress

Mexico City, Nov. 27.-The wo-
mans suffrage movement is making
some, progress in Mexico, but high
government officials are inclined %
believe that the time is not yet ripe
to grant the franchise to women. For
several years desultory propaganda
to this end has been conducted here.
but the movement received tbs great
est impetus recently when Rafael
Nieto, governor of San Lusi Potosi
and former secretary of the treasury,
submitted project to his state legis.
lature providing for woman suffrage.
Governor Nieto's action provoked
much discussion in the press, which
believes that it will fail of passage.
Secretary Of Interior Gales stated
recently to newspapermen that, al
though he strongly favors woman's
suffrage, he is Of the opinion that a
great deal of educational work must
be done before it can be accomplish

The state Of Yucatan extended the
vote to women several years ago but
reports from that state say It has
not been generally used.

Oregon is not a stay at home. Con.
trary to the custom Of his predeces

ly ever left the capital, the preseat
executive travels extensively and due

Brazil Awakening to
Value of Pubic Health

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Nov. 81
One of the most notable features
of Brazils Centennial Celebration is
The prominence assumed by the ques
tion of public health. Means of pro
noting and preserving the health OF
the nation are receiving an amount
of public attention far beyond that
which prevailed before the opening
of the celebration in September.
The National Convention of Prac
ticing Physicians and Surgeons, and
the international Congress for the
Study of Leprosy, both of which were
held here month ago, gave strong
impulse to the movement which has
been gathering headway for the last
few years.
AS part of the official program Of
the celebration, corner stones were
laid for two enormous government.
hospitals in this city, work on which
is now under way. A federal depart
ment of public health is now in op-
Grafton pending the establishment of
federal Ministry of Public Health.
which probably will be created in the
near future.
Work is about to begin on the con-
struction of a lepers' isolation col
Cny in the state of Rio de Janeiro
which will accommodate about 1000
patients. The International Con.
gress for the Study of Leprosy gave
close attention to the figures of the
last official census, showing that there
are more than $4,000 lepers in Bra
I'll, and as result it is reported that
the Rockefeller Foundation head
quarters in this city are about to
close, the work of prophylaxia against
the hookworm and other intestinal all
ments being handled from now on by
the fdeeral and state health depart
ments.
Another sign of the times is tho
intense campaign now being wagej
by the newspapers Of the country
in favor of the development of out
doors sports, especially football, row.
ing, tennis and boxing. The South
American Olympic Games, and the
International football (soccer) Cham
pionship, which were held here dur
ing the first part of the Centennial
Celebration, have whetted public taste
for athletics to an extraordinary de
gree. Firpo's vic ory over Tracey, in
has set Brazilian nerves
tingling with the idea that South
America may produce champion in
the fstic sport, with the result that
the young hopefuls of all Brazilian
families are now wearing the "smok-
ed lamp" badge of that pastime.
The main object of this new en-
thusasm for athletics is a stronger
Brazilian race.
Official figures published on Bra
zil's one hundredth anniversary of
political independence showed that
there are las persons living in Rio
de Jarero who were alive when Bra
zil broke away from Portugal in 1922,
that is, century or more old. The
oldest member Of this brigade has
passed his 148th birthday.

Guern.ey Listens to
Sermons at Home


Guernsey Island, Eng, Nov. 27.-
The small island of Guernsey, in the
English channel, has been enjoying q
unique teiel servi>e for the past
"a years. Every Sunday morning
telephone subscribers, at least some
Of them, sit at home and listen to the
sermon from the church over the
wires, and in summer th2y are, en-
tertained in the same way with tho
music of the local band. They Simply
ask central for the necessary connec-
ton, and a transmitter affixed to the
pulpit or in front of the, bandstand
does the rest.
Guernsey developed this system as
far back as 1898, when bro dcastins
was undreamed of and telephones
were relatively few and far apart.
For "a years the ma ives of these un-
frequented islands have been enjoy
ing the benefits of broadcasting
system which today is becoming
widespread through radio.
There are eighs telephones to every
100 inhabitants of Cue nsey, and tn.
service is said to be the cheapest in
the world. There is no installation
charge, and fo ra business connection
the cost is $500 year; residence
telephones are even cheaper. There
were no increases made in the
charges during the war, and the sys.
tenn has always been paying prop
oSition.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER %, 1922.

Educatlon Week throughout the
country begins December 3, and con-
tinues through December g. Every
phase of school life is to be studied
and efforts made to carry the mes
sage of inspiration to every commun-
ity in the land. The problem of the
rural school is 20 receive part cular
attention in this state 1t is our great
est po mt of weakness. Our country
schools are poorly equipped, often
poorly taught, and seldom up to a
standard that is satisfactory The
Citizens Educational Association of
South Carolina is the organization
that is seeking 20 cooperate with the
National Educational Association in
this state in the drive to be made
in this state durlng Education Week.
1t is primarily the purpose of the
state organization to press home the
needs of the rural schools. To this
end committee has been appointed in
each county to carry forward the
drive. The committee for this county
met yesterday and decided to hold
meeting in each school district in the
county during the week. The meet
'ngs will be held in the school houses.
Two or three speakers will be sent to
the school chosen for the meeting.
The plan is not to hold meeting in
every school house, but the schools
have been grouped so that each meet
ing may be attended by nearby
schools. DR.. F. M. Ellerbe, County
Superintendent Of Education is
member of the committee for this
county and will cooperate fully with
lie movement. IT is hoped that every
patron of the school will try to attend
the meeting in his school district. On
Friday night AZ 1880 o'clock there is
20 be grand rally of patrons, teach
ers and citizens throughout the county
IN the Union High School auditorium.
At TINS meeting distinguished edu-
Gator from some other section of the
State will deliver an address, and the
delegates to the STATE meeting TO be
held lated in Columbia, and to appoint
legislation committee to confer with
the county delegation and to secure
their cooperation and, if possible, this
endorsement Of the purposes of the
memoir al which is to be presented to
the legislature tbs winter
1t is to be hoped that the teachers
throughout the county will give their
hearty support 60 the movement and
will see that the notice of the meet
ing 70 be held in her district is car
ried 10 the patrons Of the school. The
suggested program is published in
tCday's Times, and will be pub
lished several days in succession. This
effort, properly made, will give
great impetus to the cause of educa-
ton, particularly the rural school
problem.

DAWSON WILL JOIN OTHER
TOWNS IN CHRISTMAS CAROLS
Request Made by the Georgia Chill
dren's Home Society.

The Georgia Children Home So
ciety, which has as its object caring
for the homeless child, an organiza-
ton that is non-sectarian and unde-
nominationaL has wired request to
Dawson to join with other towns
throughout the state in singing carols
on Christmas eve.
Just as d missionary society stands
for a church so the Georgia society
stands for the homeless children of
the state, and every Christmas gener-
Gus hearted Georgians sing carols and
volunteer offerings are made for the
homeless waits. If the destitute child
cannot get into an orphange the So
ciety gives ii a chance, and with this
work the state makes it possible for
even the least OF these" His little
ones" to be made happy.
Macon has for years done big
work for the society. Albany and
a number OF other towns are doing
al they can. and we are not surprised
that the Wesley Bible class and the
Margaret Tweedy class, two OF the
strongest organizations Of our local
churches, with Miss Belle Cheatham
as its spirituelle, have adopted this
beautiful work as a permanent work
among charities. OF noteworthy men
ton is the fact that Mrs. NJ H. Har-
per, member Of the Wesley Bible
class, is a member OF the state carol
board, and it was through her efforts
that the work was made possible.
