GOVERNOR COOPER TAKES Ac
TION ON SHEPPARD-TOWN-
Err BILL.

For nearly two years the Nation
al League of Women Voters has
been diligently working in Washing
ton, under the direction of our able
chief, Mrs. Maude Wood Park, for
the sheppard-Towner Infancy and
Maternity bill and just before the
close of our last session of Congress
the bill came to a vote in the house,
having already passed the Senate
twice. This bill has been signed by
the President and the states have ac-
cepted the Act in rapid succession,
in fact so rapidly it has been impos-
sible to keep up with them. Governor
Cooper has already sent in his &C
ceptance of the act and it will only
be very short time before ten thou
sand dollars will be available for the
work in South Carolina.
The poll of the House on the bill
was as follows: 9
w. Turner Logan, Charleston
Yes.
James F. Byrnes, Aiken-Yes.
Fred H. Dominick, Newberry,-
No.
John H. Mcswain, Greenville-
Not voting.
William F. Stevenson, cheraw-
Yes.
Philip H. stoll, Kingstree-Pair-
ed for.
Hampton P. Fulmer, Norway
Yes.
This is a most remarkable vote for
our South Carolina delegation and
the women are deeply appreciative
to those who gave their support.
In the Senate Mr.. Dial is recorded
as voting against the bill and Mr..
Smith as notpvoting.
This bill was endorsed by many
woman's organizations and its pass
age marks the first mile post for pro-
tective legislation for women and
children and at the same time demon
strates, more fully than anything else
that has yet happened, the tremen-
dous power of the ballot.-Palmetto

DRINK AND TENNIS.

A series of articles on Chow to
Play Tennis" has recently been pub
lished by William T. Tilden, Of Ger
mantown, the worlds champion ten
mis- player. Surely no one can speak
with more authority than Mr.. Tilden.
We quote the following paragraph:
"It is certain injury to touch al
coholic drink in any form during
tournament play. Alcohol is poison
that affects the eye, the mind and the
wind-three essentials in tennis. To-
bacco in moderation does little harm,
although it, too, hits eye and wind.
A man who is facing a long season OF;
tournament play should refrain from
both alcohol and tobacco in any form.
Excess of any kind is bad for physi-
cal condition and should not be
chanced."- d."-Palmetto White Ribbon.

PROHIBITION CUTS ALCOHOL
DEATH RATE.

There was an average decrease OF
"a per cent in chronic and acute al
coholism in the cities of New York,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, De-
troit, Pittsburg, Cleveland, Balti-
more, st. Louis, San Francisco, Gin
cinnati, Washington, Milwaukee and
New Orleans, comparing the four
years previous to prohibition with
the first prohibition year. This state
ment, made by the Fergus Falls
(Minn.) Journal, is based upon sta
tistics of the health authorities of
these cities. In New York, for in
stance, there was decline from 6S7
deaths due to alcoholism in 1916 to
So in 1920. There was also a,decline
of 48 per cent based on the same
comparison in deaths from liver
cirrhosis.

A DAILY PRAYER.cREED.

q.
o Lord, grant that today Il may be
kind
To those around me; that I may be
blind
To their faults and failures. Help me
to praise
Each honest endeavor and through
the days
Hard tasks to smile. 0 Lord, help me
to speak
A CHEEKY word to all the faint and
weak,
To speak a word of comfort to the
sad;
And when the day is done may hearts
be glad
Because l have been serving Thee.
O Lord, grant that today I may be
brave
Against each temptation; that Thou
wilt save
Me from my sin. @ Lord, help me
to be
All that Thou wouldst have me be.
Speak to me
And gently lead me back unto Thy
way,
When from the path of right my feet
would stray;
Teach me, o Lord, upon thy strength
to lean,
And when the day is done may / be
clean
Because have been trusting Thee.
o Lord, grant that today I may dis
dain
No humble task; that I may not
complain;
However hard my lot. Help me to do
The things that I should do, faithful
and true
To every trust; and when the day is
done
I will recount Thy mercies, one by
one.
When death, o Lord, shall beckon me
away,
Grant that I may see the light OF
heavens day
Because 1 have been loving Thee.

THE STRATEGY OF FocH.

He came to America few weeks
ago, and ever since our cities have
been ringing with cheers for him. A
quiet, Drowned, gray-haired, wrin-
kled, pious, simple-hearted French
man, clad in the horizon-blue uni
form of the French army, Ferdinand
Foch! 1 honor him for the sublime
selflessness with which he puts by the
sword of war to take up the pencil
of peace. "This is my sword, now,"
he said, reaching for his pencil, as
reporters swarmed about him for his
courteous honor in bringing with
him no stock of wines and liquors
for his American tour. If some
Americans could be faced up to him
they might we'll be ashamed of their
own careless Haunting of national
mood. I honor him for the devotion
which he always displays when, every
Sunday morning, wherever he finds
himself, he detaches himself from his
nearest guards, and makes his way
alone to the nearest church of his
faith, there to worship in the simple
ity of his need. But I honor him most
of all, because he, student of war,
found out in his search, so much
about life.
One of the simple principles enun-
ciated by Marshal Foch is:
"You cannot lose until you have
quit fighting. You may lose trenches
or cities or divisions, but you have
not lost the battle till you have lost
heart and stopped. That army will
win which is fighting fifteen seconds
after it's opponents have stopped" !"
"When being pushed back ATTACK.
My right is retreating, my left is fall
ing back, my center is overwhelmed.
The situation is excellent. shall at
tack"
What shall we do who carry the fray
For civilization on today?
The war of the angels for godly
right
Against the power of bDutish might.
When patience and courage are
wearing thin,
And endurance is almost driven in,
And the angels wait in a listening
hush
Then remember the Marne and Fer
dinand Foch.
From Sermon of Rev. B. c. clausen.

EDUCATE FOR PEACE.

AS we are daily reminded by writ
ers in the daily press and the maga-
zines, the world cannot afford war,
physically, economically, or spirit
ually-and the last, though often
least noted, is the chief reason for
its discontinuance. Just as the list of
the physically disabled is growing
appallingly, so the number Of our
young people who were rendered spir-
itually manned is also increasing as
the months roll by. Every day we see
that not only is war itself what Sher-
man called it, but that selfshness,
greed and moral indifference to law
and religion have followed in it's
wake. Often the barriers of pride,
good sense, and produnce have fallen
through the resultant deadening OF
the spiritual nerves. That this is not
more universal shows that an innate
worth, born of goodly ancestry and
helpful environment, is mounting su-
perior to the evil influences that are
like those poisonous gases which rose
from the fields of strife.
If permanent peace is to be estab-
lished, one thing must be done. 1t is
not so simple rot so readily accom-
plished as vas the sending of tele-
grams and :.:,eers that urged the re-
ductioa Of ornament, but it is even
more ns sary, oaf DEPARTMENT ,. Mt Of Of,
three words-"E Educate. for Peace"
Just as through education the wo-
men in the last generation were the
chief instruments in bringing about
the defeat of the legalized liquor
traffic, can they not through the same
means, compass the downfall of
Mars?
The children both at school and at
home should be taught that war and
it's consequences, in very truth, SAVIOR
of the pit. Instead of studying SIM
ply the economic causes of war and
learning about the greatest battles
and the most renowned generals, let
them be shown in history, economics,
civics and literature, that both di-
rectly and indirectly war always has
been caused by mans passion and
selfshness, and that in its awful
shadow always have lurked the hor-
rors Of suffering, famine, want, crime
and disease. AS each war in history
is taken up, let them think and dis
cuss in essays, class or school de-
bates, and in home circles, how it
might have been averted if the ma
tions concerned had been willing to
do the right thing.
When the future citizens Of this
and other nations have thus studied
this subject, when they have learned
to look upon war as foolish and a
hideous way of settling national diff
ficulties, then-and not until then
"shall be brought to pass the saying
that is written" "On Earth Peace,
Good Will Toward Men."-Palmetto
White Ribbon.

FACTS, THE WEAPON OF POWER


Law enforcement, particularly
with reference to the laws concern
ing prohibition, is the chief concern
of the w. C. T. u. during the COM.
ing year.
A manual containing definite in
struction to all those in favor of en-
forcing theGlaws of this country, will
be issued shortly by the National w.
C. T. u. and distributed widely. No
longer will it be possible to say
"Pd be glad to help if only I knew
what to do"
Anyone can help and without eX-
ira work other than attending to the
duties of good citizenship. Prove your
approval of law and order by your
daily conversation. Remember that
humor is often more powerful than
cold reason. Try to refrain from
making anti-prohibition jokes or
countenancing them.
Try to find out the facts of the
benefits of prohibition in your own
neighborhood. If you note any i'm
proved conditions in your town or
district due to the 18th amendment,
talk about them. Praise the benefits
of prohibition, such as, good looking
stores taking the place of the corner
saloon and improved family condi-
tions.
Your daily conversation with your
associates will help to put the true
facts before the public. There's a
real fight ahead and everyone can
help.
To keep the dry legislators in the
majority in Congress, returning those
who nobly stood by the prohibition
cause and sending new dry legislat-
ors to take the place of the vets, will
require greater effort than has ever
before been displayed. The prepara-
tory work will have to be done long
before election day. Begin now.
Statistics are being gathered by
recognized authorities in metropoli-
tan centers relative to the true re-
suits of prohibition in this country.
This material will be available to
all. Make it your business to know
the facts. Find out the truth, tell
people about it, publish it broadcast
so that the subtle, untruthful propa-
ganda now being Systematically dis
tributed by the other side will be
shown up in its true colors.
Facts are the truths that appeal to
business men. They will listen if you
speak. They really want to know.
Remember, the other side, whose mo-
tive is greed and self-interest, is al
ways quick to speak
Let the real sentiment of the ma
tion be heard. Let the good, law
abiding element shout and be heard,
from now on and every day until it
makes the mightiest noise ever heard

BE TRUE.
Emma Graves Dietrich

Emma graves 1ileLrlch
Be true to thyself, my soul,
Be true to thyself and God;
There's never path to go u.
But Jesus Himself has trod;
There's never road SO rough
Or burden so hard to lift,
But Christ has hand outstretched
His helping a constant gift.
Then take Him thy care, my soul,
And give~Him thy heavy load,
And ask for His grace to help
In every foot of road;
So shalt chou be true, my soul,
Be true to thyself, and God.

FOLKS NEED A LOT OF LOVING

By Strickland Gillian
Folks need a lot of loving III the
morning.
The day is all before, with cares be-
set
The cares we know, and they that
give no warning;
For love is Gods antidote for fret.
Folks need heap of loving in the
noontime-
In the battle lull, the moment snatch
ed from strife
Halfway between the waking and the
croontime,
While pickering and worriment are
rife.
Folks hunger so for loving at the
nighttime,
When wearily they take them home
to rest
At slumber-song and turning -out-the
light time
Of all the times for loving, that's the
best!
Folks want lot of loving every
minute
The sympathy of others and their
smile!
Till life's end, from the moment they
begin it,
F5lks * need4a los of loving all the
while.

PROHIBITION POINTERS.

In Peoria, ILL.,, formerly great
distillery center, bank clearings have
increased 100000 since prohibi-
tion. The thirteen distilleries in and
near Peoria, are now used for other
purposes, chiefly the manufacture
of food products, and the three
breweries there have also gone into
other businesses.
The internal revenue collector
used to get his heaviest revenue from
Peoria. This revenue amounted to
something over $35,OOO,OOO a year.
Ee admits having opposed the=coming
of prohibition but said recently-"I
fought you hard but now Pm with
you. The change in industries has
helped and not hurt Peoria" Today
1000 more homes are needed to
house the busy people of Peoria, for
the new industries require many more
employees than were formerly in de-
mand.
The president of the Bessemer
Steel and Iron Co., Birmingham, Ala,
said that he personally has not until
recently favored the passage, of the
prohibition laws but that now, after
seeing the greatly improved condition
of the miners and the many benefits
they now enjoy because their money
is spent on their homes and not in
the saloons-he would never vote to
bring liquor back.
During the recent visit of President
Harding to Birmingham, Ala, there
was a parade such as before prohi-
bition would have required large
additional squad of police to keep the
huge crowds in order. This time, how
ever, owing to the changed condi-
tions due to prohibition, the boy
scouts, unassisted, were able to man
age the 'rafic.
The Eighteenth Amendment was
passed, not after the soldiers had left
the country as the misinformed say,
but when only 100000 had gone.
The majority vote in favor of prohi-
bition in Ohio was $4,000. In a sub
sequent vote taken after the SOL
diers' return, that vote was augment
ed to 100000! Evidently the soldier
vote would have meant something,
just as the vets claimed. 1t would un-
questionably have meant more over
whelming victory for prohibition
