Your Last Name


Milton family early established at

The tradition Is that the ancestor Of

United States In 1874, settling In North
Carolina.
His son, John Milton, born in Hall

was secretary of state Of Georgia after
the Revolution, and received two votes
from the Georgia electors for first
President of the United States. He mar
ried Hannah Spencer and by her had
son, Homer Virgil Milton, an officer
in the War of 1912. He was known
as General Milton.
General Milton had a son John Mil

Florida. Governor Milton had son,
William Henry Milton, distinguished
jurist, and his son. William Hall, born
in 1854. was distinguished surveyor

uHO SAID
"The multitude is all
sUays in the SOrong.''

XKyHEN Wentworth Dillon, fourth
Wv earl of Roscommon, uttered these
words, he well knew and appreciated
the limited ability Of a multitude or
mob to make an accurate judgment.
He lived at the time Charles II was In
power in England, and he saw the
multitude first acclaim royalty, in the
nounce it and execute their king, TO
welcome the regime of Oliver Crom-
we'll. And, finally, he saw the multi
tude turn again to royalty and Guido
itself in an attempt to show their af-
lection for the new monarch, Charles
II.
Roscommon, as he Is best known,
was one of the favorites at the court
of Charles III, where his learning and
brilliant conversational powers won
him many staunch friends among the
nobles. II Is a rather strange thing
that this man who was such a friend
of the king should at the same time
have been described as 1.-THE only moral
writer" during the reign Of Charles.
The reign of this monarch was noted
for the dissoluteness and licentious-
ness of those in control, and how 1t
happened that man Of Roscommon's
character, writing as he did, did not
offend some of the dissolute courtiers.
If not the king himself, Is not known.
The fact remains, however. that he
continued in the good graces OF the
king and his court until death.
Roscommon Is known as a minor
poet. He has left little to accord him
a high place among the writers OF his
land, and yet many of his sayings and
bits of philosophy. such as that quoted
above, have been handed down through
the years. He was born in 1888 and
died In 1855.

has survived. His two best-known ef-
forts, probably. are an Essay on the

Sudden Application of
Brakes Is Bad Practice

The sudden application of automobile
brakes and the consequent sliding OF
the wheels cause those worn spots on
the tread Of the tires which result in
their being discarded long before they
are really worn out. II the brakes are
applied firmly but gently the car will
be stopped as quickly, but without the
disastrous results on the rear wheels
which comes from jammlng on the
brakes. It would prevent the locking
Of the rear wheels, which causes the
wheels to slide.
When the car is at dead stop there
is, Of course, no wear on the tires, as
there is no motion to produce external
friction, the tire being in perfect con-
tact with the road. If the car is started
gently and slowly and nursed up to the
proper speed the tire retains as near
ly as possible the perfect contact with
the road. Friction Is held at a mini
mum and wear unnoticed.

SUMS SPENT FOR

Much Money Spent for New

In most peoples minds the amount
Of money spent for highway travel in

the money invested in highway I'M

OF Value to Car Owner.
An interesting tabulation published
In the South Carolina Highway Bulle-
tin for January, 1925, sheds some light
on this matter which is of value to
the motor car owner.
During the year 1924 there was ex-
pended in South Carolina approx
mately:
For new motor vehicles ...$25, 900, 900
For gasoline ............... 100000
For oil. tires, repairs and up
keep of motor vehicles. -. 21,000.0
This makes a total outlay In 1924
for motor vehicle operation Of $62,-
100000 Also there has been expend-
ed some $7,O00,OO0 for road construc-
ton and maintenance, which is as
much a part of motor vehicle opera
ton as Is the buying of oil or gaso-
line. The sums used for road pur-
poses were furnished in part from
gasoline taxes and motor vehicle IL
cense fees. In addition to these there
have been expended about 100000
in the Improvement of city streets.
Altogether, including miscellaneous
and depreciation not covered by re-
placements, the total bill for highway
transport in South Carolina for 1924
was approximately $75,O0O,000
Equals Value of Crops.
This one item alone is equal to
about one-half the value of all the
crops produced in the state during
the same year and 1t constitutes a
very large proportion of the total
budget for living expenses. The por-
ton actually spent for highway i'm
provement Is only IL per cent of the
total transportation bill, yet 1t Is In
the building of better highways that
lasting and definite economies are
made in the largest item in the bill
