The paved road from Hilton to Co.
lumbia has been finished and Is open
for travel except the detour of some
800 yards at Ballentine where the
building of an overhead bridge is IN
progress. 1t is a fine road and IS
free of dust. The bridge seems to be
nearing completion and it will not be
long before it is finished. The top
soil road in Newberry and Lexing-
ton is digging in small holes and most
of the way it is just like running ov-
er little hills right close together.
The upkeep work is going on but un-
til it rains it will be impossible to 90
anything for these holes.

Come as Surprise
I The action of the federal govern
ment came as a bombshell in Judge
Wilkerson's court. AS the attorney
general entered the court room All
audible tremor of surprise filled the
marble walled hall and the first indi-
cation of the magnitude of the pro-
ceeding was given. 1t had not been
known by more than few assistants
that the attorney general was in Chi
cago.
! District Attorney Clyne walked di-
rectly to the bench and announced al
most simultaneously with the formal
convening of court by the clerk that
he sought to bring action "of the
United States of America against the
railway employees department of the
American"
With the senIence yet unfinished
the room Was alive with the activity
of prodded wasps' nest. Newspap-
er men ran empty handed for tele-
phones, court officials moved frant!-
cally to restore order and waiting at
torneys and witnesses leaned forward
in the benches they had for hours oc-
cupied in monotonous Indifference,
with alert interest.
AS the reading of the bill Of COM
plant continued the court throngs
grew and the eager interest of the
crowd advanced to dramatic excite
n1ent and expectancy, sustained 10
the climax, came in the concluding
sentence of Attorney General Daugh-
erty's plea.
Flfty-one typed pages making up
the petition were read by Solicitor
Esterline, following which the attor-
ney general took his position before
the judge to make his own plea for
the petition.
The attorney general spoke delib-
erately, often pondering on words
or phrases, as it seemed, in hope that
their utterance might not be neces-
sary-then giving in to the urge that
no other course remained.
With the signing of the injunction
the legal array of the federal govern
ment withdrew and those who linger-
ed saw with the calling of the case
of Black VS.. Mahoney the calm Of
normalcy returned to the scenes as
quickly as it had departed.

The Little Mountain high school

the day on which we have the hot air
and the words of encouragement
from friends of the school in the COM

teachers and children, and this ar
rangement Will give plenty of time
without any one being hurried and
without taking up a day or even a
part of day that should be given to
the regular work of the school. 1t
gives opportunity for the teachers to
get their programs and schedules ar
ranged and the lessons assigned and

From Tabernacle / am going over
to the Cromer school section to con-
fer with the trustees to see what we
can do for the children over here.
They will not have more than five or
six for school age the coming ses-
sion and / am hoping we can make
some arrangement to send the chill
dren to Whitmire. 1t will take less
money to do so than to maintain a
school and in addition to that and far
and above that the children will have
the benefit of a good nine months
school against one teacher or seven
months school and the children are
the ones We must consider.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1922-09-05

Arrangements have been made al
ready to send the four or five chill
dren from the Trilby school to Whit
mire and this will save a good sum
for the district and at the same time
give the children the benefit of a
good school. Pity we can not make
this arrangement for two or three
other schools in the county where
there are only a few children. It
saves us money and gives the chill
dren so much better advantage. AS
it appears to me it would be better
for Fork to send the children to Po-
maria. There are only about ten
children in this school and there is a
good highway right to Pomaria. And
there is Reagin within three or four
miles of Silverstreet and the chill
dren, only about eight, could be tax
en- there for less than it will cost to
employ a teacher and they would
have the advantage of three teacn-
Ell school. And Maybin5on 7 undo =
stand will have probably only one
child of school age the coming ses-
sion and to employ teacher will
cost at least S75 per month to fur
nish that child with a school. The
great problem is to make the people
see where it is to their advantage to
do these things and especially TO the
advantage of the children. Of course
there should be care exercised in the
selection of the person 20 do the
transferring because there is great
responsibility in the handling of a
bunch of children every school day
to be sure they are handled safely.
The schools are all opening early
this year and am glad of it because
l think it r.uch better to start early
than to have to run too late out in
the summer. l want all the teach
ers and the trustees to start out this
year with the determination to make
this the best school year in the his
tory of the county and to be assured
that I will give them all the help and
all the cooperation in my power. The
only way we can do it is for all of
us to cooperate and pull together for
the good of the school. It is the on
ly way to accomplish anything worth
while.

Tuesday morning, September 5, l
am going over to Tabernacle to be
with the good people of this commun-
ity and their school which is 20 open
on Monday. l am just wondering if
that road from Jalapa that we have
been promised has been even sur
veyed. l hope that it will be built
before the winter rains set in be-
cause if something is not done it will
be out of the question to get up in
this section except on horseback if
the roads get anywhere about where
they were last winter. This section
needs road for the benefit of the
school, the church and for the good
people who live up this way and |
hope the highway commission will
carry out its purpose right away to
build this road from Jalapa right out
in this section to the Laurens county
line about the old Liberty Hill which
they say is across the line in Laurens
county and not in Newberry as I sta
ted one time in writing about this
section.

Well, to resume and go on.
What was | talking about? Oh, I
know-the prospective suitors. (Aunt
Hattie can't hear me when just write
it, anyway Well, they all come just
as they used to, only there are more
of them now-two fat men, one slim
round bald spot. Oh, l don't mean
that any of them are really suitors
yet. They just come to call and to
tea, and send her flowers and candy.
And Mother isn't a mite nicer to one
than she is to any of the others. Any
body can see that. And she shows
very plainly she's no notion Of pick
ing anybody out yet. But of course
l can't help being interested and
watching.
AS | said before, I don't believe
Mother'll choose Mr.. Harlow, anyway,
even when the time comes. AS for any
of the others-I can't tell She treats
them all just exactly alike, as far as
can see. Polite and pleasant, but not
at all loverlike. I was talking to Pc
ter one day about 1t, and / asked him.
But he didn't seem to know, either,
which one she will be likely to take, If
any.
Peters about the only one / can
ask. OF course / couldn't ask Moth
err or Aunt Hattie And Grandfather
well, / should never think of asking
Grandpa a question like that. But
Peter-Peter's a real comfort. I'm
sure don't know what | should do for
somebody to talk to and ask questions
about things down here, if it wasn't
for him. He takes me to school and
back again every day; SO of course /
see him quite lot.
Speaking Of school, it's all right, and
of course l like it, though not quite SO
well as l did. There are some Of the
girls-well, they act queer. l don't
know what is the matter with them.
They stop talking-some of them
when / come UP, and they make me
feel sometimes, as If l didn't belong.
Maybe it's because came from little
country town like unreasonable But
they've known that all along, from
the very first. And they didn't act at
all like that at the beginning. Maybe
it's just their way down here. If I

cial happened. Everything has been
going along just about as it did at the
first. Oh, there is one thing different
Peters gone He went two months
ago. We've got an awfully old chauf-
feur now. One with gray hair and
glasses, and homely, too. His name Is
Charles. The very first day he came,
Aunt Hattie told me never to talk to
Charles, or bother him with ques-
tons; that it was better he should
keep his mind entirely on his driving.
She needn't have worried. should
never dream Of asking him the things
did Peter. He's too stupid. Now

until all of sudden Grandpa told
him he might go. / don't know why.
don't see as I'm any nearer finding
out who Mothers lover will be than I
was four months ago. / suppose it's
still too soon. Peter said one day he
thought widows ought to wait at least
year, and he guessed grass-widows
were just the same. My, how mad I
was at him for using that name about
my mother! Oh, I knew what he
meant. I'd heard it at school. Il
know now what it was that made
those girls act so queer and horribly
There was a girl never liked her,
and l suspect she didn't like me,
either. Well, she found out Mother
had a divorce. (You see, / hadn't
told it. / remembered how those girls
out West bragged.) And she told
lot Of the others. But it didn't work
at all as it had in the West. None Of
the girls in this school here had d.
vorce in their families; and, if you'll
believe it, they acted-some of them
as If it was a disgrace. even after

was a perfectly respectable and gen.
teel divorce. Nothing / could say
made mite of difference, with some
of the girls, and then Is when / first

ter meant, though was furious at him
for using it. And let him see it

SYNOPSIS.--In a preface Mary
Marie explains her apparent "dou-
BILE personality" and just why Is a
"cross-current and a contradic-
ton; she also tells her reasons
for writing the diary-later to be
a novel. The diary is commenced
at Andersonville. Mary begins with
Nurse Sarah's account of her
(Mary's) birth, which seemingly in
terested her father, who is ia
nous astronomer, less than a new
star which was discovered the same
night. Her name is compromise;
her mother wanted to call her
Viola and her father insisted on
Abigail Jane. The child quickly
learned that her home was in some
way different from those of her
small friends, and was puzzled
thereat. Nurse Sarah tells her of
her mothers arrival at Anderson
vile as bride and how astonished
they all were at the sight of the
dainty eighteen-year-old girl whom
the sedate professor had chosen for
wife. Nurse Sarah makes 1t plain
why the household seemed a strange
one to the child and how her ia
Their and mother drifted apart
through misunderstanding, each too
proud to in any way attempt to
smooth over the situation. Mary
tells of the time spent "out west
where the perfectly all right and
genteel and respectable divorce
was being arranged for, and her
mothers Ito herr unaccountable be-
havior. By the courts decree the
child is to spend six months of the
year with her mother and six
months with her father. Boston is
Mothers home. Mary describes her
life as Marie with her mother in
Boston.
