NOTED WOMAN TO, SPEAQ.

On the first page of last week s
Courier we announced that Mrs. An
ME Gaines Williams, State chairman
Of the League of Women Voters,
would speak at the American Legion
Hall at . o'clock last Wednesday af-
ternoon. We regret that the date
was given us Incorrectly, for the an
nCuncement should have been for
this afternoon, the 2Sth. at o'clock.
We regret to learn that the attend
aEce last Wednesday was very small,
and we hope that this afternoon will
find the hall filled with women ready
to listen, with intelligence and un-
derstanding,' to what Mrs. Williams
has to say on the Importance Of the
ballot for women.
Have you enrolled for The primary
yet? Perhaps you have not regis
tered. The books are still open. In
quire as to dates Of registration and
secure your registration certificate tes,
then enroll your name Oh the club
book in the precinct in which you
reside. Don't delay. The time is get
ting short in which you can discharge
this new duty that has been imposed
upon you with the granting Of the
voting franchise. DO it now-and
help South Carolina to have a clean
CT, purcr. saner government.
Perhaps you do not approve Of
votes for women" but the women
OF South Carolina have the vote,
and ii is your duty to see that the
good women, the intelligent women,
the women with the best interests Of
their state and counties at heart,
cast their votes. 1t is not a dinicult
matter to register: it is easy to vote.
Go and listen to Mrs. Williams this
afternoon at the Legion Hall, and
YOU will realize better than we can
tell You the importance of casting an
intelligent vote.
Perhaps YOU consider suffrage for
women an evil. In that case, the
evil, as you see it, is here, and it
must be dealt with and not ignored.
We are in receipt Of letter from
Mrs. Williams, in which she asks us
to urge upon the women Of Oconee
the Importance Of registering and
voting--to realize their responsible
ity, and that voting is not a matter
or preference, but a bounden duty.
Wake up, women Of Oconee. Put
your namo on the registration and
precinct books and show your pref
erence in the coming election. Take
for your slogan and battle cry, "a
sane government and clean politics. I"

advantage Of the opportunity of this
free examination.
North Carolina has adopted for
her slogan in her fight on tubercu-
losis, Every person in North Caro-
lima who has tuberculosis has right
to know 1t, and to be properly treat
ed for IT,
Let us in South Carolina see to it
that If we have tuberculosis we will
cure It, If we have not, rlet us pre-
vent 1t by proper precautions.

SPOT LIGHTS AND CUT.OUTS.

The following clipping has been
sent to The Courier with the request
that we publish same:
"Cut-outS and spot lights are ta-
boo under the law of the last LegiS-
laturc. and rural policemen in An
dcrson are going to enforce the law.
Word has already come down TO the
rural policemen to watch the cut
outs and spot lights as much as the
speed iiends, and TO make cases
against persons who use cut-out at
any time, and to arrest and make
eases against those persons who vio-
late the spot light law.
"Whilc cut-oulS are positively for
hidden, spot lights may be used un-
der the condition that the light be
eXtinguished by the person using
same when within 200 yards Of an
approaching vehicle"
Commenting upon the clipping
the sender, who is doubtless, along
with hundreds Of others, a sufferer
from these nuisances, says:
"It seems that our officers are not
paying any attention to these laws.
and yet they are laws that should be
enforced. both on account of health
and safety
The Courier has often mentioned
obnoxious practices on the part Of
automobilists, a few OF which are:
Failure to use horn TO warn others
OF approach when desiring to pass.
Failure to observe warning when
given, sticking to the middle oi the
road, forcing the one wishing to
pass TO 'run around" or stay behind
and take the dust This is one Of
the common practices Of the ordinary
road hog"
Operating cars at night without
tail lights. lNOt mtrcQuenty there
are cars that are run almost cOutin-
uOusly without even front lighlS.p
Failure to dim lights when in the
act OF approaching another car go
ing opposite direction.
Approaching lAtcrsectiMg roads or
streets at considerable speed without
giving warming.
Cutting OF short distances Oin the
lownS) by crossing about the mid
die OF a block instead of going all
the way to the intersection when go
ing out Of one into another street.
All OF these are abOminablc prac-
tees. and some OF them nfractions
of specific laws.
And yet it is almost an imDossi-
bility for the officers to correct these
evils. 1t will take the hearty COOP
Grafton Of the public to make it pos
sible. Until we find the general pub
lie willing to report infractions Of
the automobile laws we will have to
content ourselves with taking our
chances on the road

GETS RESULTS

Rubber heels now are on go out o. each 100 pairs o. shoes I
worn by men. Such is the estimate going the rounds IN the
shoe industry. II
1t is not surprising, if you have noticed how many men
wear rubber heels. But maybe you remember, back only a lew 1
wears when rubber heels were unusual. 1
What brought them into popularity? 1
The answer advertising. 4
Three fourths of the rubber heels sold are for men S shoes.
This is because most Of the advertising has been directed at
men. \
One of these days some wise manufacturer Of rubber heels
will notice this. Then he'll call in the advertising man and
his staff Of writers and artists. 1
Campaigns will follow. And soon women will be wearing
Just as many rubber heels as men. 4
It's all a matter Of advertising-the most powerful force
in the sale of goods. The ideal combination is advertising
which reaches consumers brains through their eyes, and per
sonal salesmanship which reaches less wildly through the ears
Our present standard of living is largely the creation Oh
advertising. For advertising creates the demand, makes people
want the thing advertised. When the lure becomes powerful
enough, they hustle about and get the money to obtain what
they want.
Advertising thus spurs sales. It also stimulates produc-
tion-both of the things advertised and the things that have
to be done on a bigger scale to obtain money for purchasing
advertised wares.
There is a new thought for you-that advertising is q den
mite agency of production. Most OF us have been thinking
of it merely as a medium Of salesmanship.
Advertising is what is making us buy.
Advertising is what is enabling us to buy.
Tt creates the demand. And the demand induces us TO
work harder to get the money to spend. Ii all advertising
were abruptly discontinued, the American standard Of hv-
ing would quickly drop to the levels of ~grandpa's day.
Read the ads. They are a part of the news, telling the in
innate story of the average Americans inner desires. The
real history of civilization is written in ads.

NOW is THE TIME

Have you made your Thanksgiving offering to the Home for
the Aged yeti Now is the opportunity. Don't wait for somebody
to come around to see you. 1t is not going to be done. Those in
charge of the Home feel that this is a cause that will appeal to
every heart and that the subscriptions should be voluntary. 1t is up
to us to make these old folks secure for at least another year. The
time to take care Of this matter is now.
It is a shame to think that during last year the total financial
support given by the public generally amounted to but a little
over 5000. We are sure that the people did not understand the
needs or the contributions would have been larger. We can make
up for our delinquency of last year by giving literally now. The
money is sorely needed; the very existence of the Home depends
upon the kind of backing the people give at this time.
Remember, an able body of business men of this community
are giving their time freely to manage this institution. They have
many hard problems to solve. 1t takes time from their business,
and it means assuming a great responsibility as these old folks have
entrusted their all in the keeping of these men. The least the peo-
pie can do is to support them, giving them the finances necessary
to carry on the work. Their burden is made a great deal lighter
are public-spirited enough to give their time, and money, too,
surely we should be willing to contribute money.
If twenty men could be found who would give 800 each,
forty persons to give $50 each and fifty persons to give $25 each
the problem would be solved. Surely there ought to be no people
in Perth Amboy and vicinity willing to aid such a cause as this
in this way.
But the smaller amounts are not to be despised. Many there
are who would like to help but who cannot afford even $25. Perth
Amboy is not a millionaire town. Everybody is working for a
living and every dollar counts. But these cold folks have to be
cared for just the same, and tt up to us.
Send in your five and ten dollars, then, and the contribution
will be just as welcome as the larger sums. But send it now,
don't wait. Let's put the Home for the Aged on a good financial
seesis for the coming year, at least. Make it your Thanksgiving
ofanng.

farms in the United States?
A. The Department of Agricul-

the area of improved land about
100000 600 acres, or 60 per cent.
This would be accomplished by ir-
