her way into pictures via the wait
ress route. With neither wealth nor
influence she struck out for the film
colony with the intention of begin
ming her motion picture as an extra
girl. She got job alright, but it
was waiting on tables. Luckily
enough, she soon got the chance she
was looking for. This was to be ex-
pected of course in the light of Miss
Windsor's beauty and her winsome
personality. She at once disclosed
histrionic possibilities, and from then
her climb has been swift and sure.

tray in motion picture studio
where actresses were partaking of
luncheon cafeteria style, that she was
noted by Lois Weber, the famous
woman producer. Miss Weber i'm
mediately demanded Miss Windsor's
services, declaring privately to her
friends that she considered herself
fortunate in running across the wait
ress, who so perfectly represented the
type she had in mind for leading lady
before any other producer. Miss
Windsor had not revealed the fact
that she was dancer by previous
training and was playing small
part in a picture at the time she was

Expects Democrats to Win.

Gene Hutchison of Rock
Hill, reading clerk of the house,
keeps in close touch with national
politics and it is his opinion that
the next house Of representatives
in Washington will be Democrat
10. Mr.. Hutchison says that many
Republican members of Congress
do not hesitate to admit in pri-
vate conversation that their party
has made botch of running the
national government since Presi-
dent Harding was inaugurated "a
year ago. We've got 'em on the
run for fair" he says. "They
are between the devil and the
deep blue sea over the proposed
bonus bill for World war vete-
rams and don't know what to do.
ii they pass a bonus bill they are
afraid the business interests of
the country will turn against
them, and if they do not pass
such bill they face the ire of the
millions of eX-service men. An
other thing that has got them in
water almost as hot is the seating
OF Senator Newberry. In the de-
batable States of the North and
West the Democratic party can
be depended upon to make the
most of that issue.'

Interest in Baseball.

With the coming of spring there
is noticeable revival of interest
locally in baseball and plans are
under way to reorganize the Fort

nights ago Fort Mill was repre-
sented at a baseball meeting in
Rock Hill at which the PROPOSE
tion was discussed 10 revive the
old Catawba league, composed of
teams representing various towns
in this section, but nothing def
mite came Of the meeting.
Discussing the proposed league
and the prospects OF team for
Fort Mill, a baseball enthusiast
OF the town yesterday said he
thought the best thing to was to
make application for berth in
the Necklenburg County league,
which already is a going institu-
ti0n and which can lie depended
upon To- last through the season.
1t was pointed out that all the
towns i'll the Mecklcnburg County
league are easily accessible to
Fort Mill, most of them are about
the same size Of this town and put
in the field teams Fort Mil camld
hope to compete with without
gong to the expense of hiring
players.

When the administrative branch
of more than one European gov
crnmcAs finds itself out of har-
mony with the legislative branch
itpromptly resigns. New men are
appointed who will carry out the
wishes OF the legislators. who
come direct from the people. This
. has happened recently in France
and iHS Italy. France is a repub-
lie, while Italy is constitutional
monarchy. Each comes nearer
being democracy in many re-
spects than the United States. No
cabinet has ever resigned in a
body during the entire history of
this country. No president has
ever resigned. But it has fre-
qnently happened that the presi-
dent and his cabinet were at log
gtrheads with Congress. 1t takes
q long time in this country to get
the p6fsliar will, as reflected at
/. the polls, put into effect. A pres
ident elected in November does
not take Office until the following
March, and the Congress elected
sat the same time does not meet
until December of the following
year, unless the president calls it
into special session. We have a
good system of government, for
the most part, but some improve
ments could be made in it. We
could speed it up for one thing.

The following essay on WASH
|ington as Soldier, written by
Miss Leila Baeectt, pupil in the
Pineville public schooi,was sward-
ed first place in the recent con-
test Of the First National bank Of
Fort Mill, which offered cash pri-
zes to, the pupils Of the various
schools in the Fort Mill section
for the best papers on the subject.
The judges Of the scontest were
the Rev. Il. III. Wiser of Fort Mill,
Mrs. q. w. Potts of Pleasant VAL
LEY and Prof. j. NJ. Holbrook Of
Pineville:
George washington. our first pres
ident. was an American hero whose
fame was not wholly accounted for
by the record OF his life. He was
greater than anything he did. AM
bitioA and opportunity never tempted
him from the path Of honor.
At the age or 81 he was made ma
jor. OF the VIRGINIA militia. At a time
when the colonies were preparing for,
war with France. Governor Dinwiddie
to French post. 500 miles distant.
That journey was O severe test Of
character and ability. 1t took him
across mountains. through trackless
forest infested with wild beasts and
hostile savages. A treacherous Indl-
an guide attempted to assassinate
him. He narrowly. escaped drowning
when crossing the flooded Allegheny.
In the French and Indian war
Washington was made an aide-de-
camp to General Braddock. His ad-
vice as to methods employed by the
Indian border warfare was ignored
and Braddock suffered terrible de-
feat. In 1853 he carried the British
colors into the smoking ruins of Fort
DuQuesne and helped to rebuild II at
Pittsburg. Thus In 1853 his youth
came to an end.
During the war with Great Britain
supreme command was given the Vir-
ginia colonel. He began with an
army of 1900 unframed men. With
only a few supplies he had to attend.
not only to his military duties. but
to serve IA masters-Congress and
the Is coionies-and to pursuade
them to support his operations and
furnish men and supplies. On March
II. 1916, when the British were driv-
en- out OF Boston. Washington became
military commander of first rank.
During the severe winter that follow
ed. Washington is given due credit
for maintaining his army at Valley
Forge. FIe and his troops had to brave
the cold with scarcely enough food
and clothing. At night he had to stay
by campfire to keep from freezing.
Washington's fame as one of the
greatest generals of history does not
rest on tine battles he fought. Wash
ington's retreat across New Jersey,
the manner in which he turned and
struck the pursuing enemy at Tren-
ton and established himself on the
heights of Morristown, and the re-
sistance to British occupation Of Phil
adelphin at Chad's Ford, all mark
him as n consummate military genius.
"Washin~ton's watchword such as
ne'er ~......
Shall fan While there's an echo left
to air."

MISSISSIPPI SYNOD
HOLDS LAST SESSION

Meridian, Miss. October 6.-The
Presbyterian synod which opened

Tuesday night. closed Its sessions
late Tuesday afternoon, adjourning
sine die. after one OF the most sue
cessfuI synod sessions in the history
of the church.
Shortly before the close OF the SEES
sion jackson, Miss. was chosen as
the meeting place for the synod In
1923. The date was set back one
month, the initial meeting to be hold
on the second Tuesday in November.
The final day was devoted to bust
ness almost exclusively, and much
work was accomplished. The con-
troversy over the theological semi
nary as between Columbia, S. c., and
Louisville. Ky, both of which are
seeking support and Endorsement
from the Mississippi synod, was dis
posed of by appointing an ad interim

has not been due to the fact that he
Is the strongest democrat in New
York, IL not the strongest politician
His popularity throughout the coun-
try, 1t is believed here, Is due to the
fact that prior to his recent nomina-
ton for another term as governor,
he openly defied Charles Murphy,
boss of Tammany, and William Ran
dolph Hearst.
His strength lies In the fact, 1t is
said. that despite such defiance, he
is supported by both Murphy and
Hearst.
Smith or AIillerf
Washington politicians are becom-
ing more and more aware of the fact
that New York is grooming itself
to put forward at least one candi-
date for the presidency two years
hence. Inasmuch as the G Jver-
whelmingly favor the denomination
of President Harding, New York S
candidate must be democratic, and
therefore. Smith. While William
Jennings Bryan might send his heart
again into the grave merely at the
mention of Smiths name, his sharp
and pointed break with Tammany' s
boss and Hearst relieves him of any
suggestion that he is amenable TO the
dictation of either.
After serving a term as governor,
Smith was defeated in 1920 by Ma
than L. Miller, an exceedingly able
man. Harding carried New York by
practically 100000 votes, but Miller
beat Smith by less than 100000. AL
though Miller's administration was
as a whole satisfactory to the bust
ness and society people of New York,
the odds favor Smith to win this year.
MiIler's Chances
II Smith is elected he would prove
a formidable candidate before the
democratic convention, it is declared
here. For while it is not regarded
as positive ths+ winning candidate
must carry New York, it is admitted
that the party is fortunate whose
candidate can carry the Empire
state.
Should Miller be reelected gov
ernor. and should Harding suffer
elimination by virtue of any one of
several possible causes, the New
York executive would stand an ex-
cellent chance of securing the re-
publican nomination for the presi-
dency two years hence, it is said.
