There are more negroes in Stftrtlf Carolina than white people. And yet. for the first time, there are more whites in the prisons of South Caro lina than negroes. The crimes of lar ceny and other similar crimes have in creashed threateningly among the whites. “I can remethber,” says Judge Featherstone, of Spartanburg, “when it was the rarest thing in the World for a white man to be in ses sions court except for fighting or homicide, but now three-fonrtlis of the cases of house breaking and lar ceny and other similar crimes are committed by whites.” The Raleigh News and Observer says “North Carolina judges are as tounded and alarmed and disturbed at the increased number of young white men brought before them for the. same character of crimes that trouble the judges in our sister States.” Persons attending Cabar rus Superior Court regularly must ' have noted that practically every judge who has served here in recent months has spoken of the fact that now there are nitre white than color ed defendants in court. Another South Carolina judge, in another part of the State, notes the same situation. Judge Henry is quot ed as saying that “there is some ex cuse for a negro stealing. He was brought up in slavery, or his ancest ors were, and he thought it little harm to seize a little of the property belonging to MS boss, but in these days the race is on between the white man and Hie negro as to which will out number the other in the penitentiary.” Judge Henry says further: “There is apparently a breakdown in reverence for the parental author ity ; if children have no regard for the authority of their parents, the' chances are that they will have no re gard for .the law of the land. I-be lieve in the wisdom of Solomon, ‘Spare the bod ahd yon spteil the child.’ ’ ;s .... "We are losing our sense of respon* sibilitjr with out revetiehee. There is ". a cult growing up which says we ' have no fixed moral standards —this lack of standards limy have its begin ning in the home. “We, however, can’t correct shat here—we can merely put oh the pen alty here—the penalty that v»as not put on by the parent.” ~ The Columbia State, frrtta which these quotations are taken, thinks there is "fowl for thought” in thjbse presentations, and adds: “But if the ■swelling tide of eiftl among whites'is to be checked and turned back, ineas ur'es mdre potent than sorrowful thought must be found and applied.” ' ** ‘h*’ remedy tj r Tjle qhestkm awtoyw facing not ■' the |l4j%e%nl»ire United Statesl K. '■ i <•' Several years ago a Movement was M=—:S-S. 1 -1 - 2 ■'M started hff the Federal government to teach thrift habits to school children. Udheord schoßl children were enroll ed in the tampaign and they have sav ed hundreds of dollars depositing pen nies, niekles, dimes and other money in Ideal banks. TbV habit is an excellent one and While the teaching of thrift fs not pri marily a duty of any school, the plan is working so successfully that it mhy be .expected to remain. School children throughout the United States have established 10,163 savings banks of their own, the Treas ury Department announces, and through the deposits of niekles, dimes, quarters, half-dollars and dollars have accumulated $25,913,531.15. Nearly three million children are taking ad vantage of the school saving system, the records showing that the number has increased yearly since the plan was inaugurated. It seems to be the customary thing for Governors of North Carolina to be “pullgd” for speeding. At least Governor Morrison had the experience several times and now Governor Mc- Lean’s driver is said to have broken the law on a recent trip through east-, ern North Carolina. Governor Mc- Lean is confident he will come clear personally, for he was at work in his office on the day the car was seen speeding through Nashville. The same man chauffeur that Governor Morri son used is being used by Governor McLean and that probably accounts for the recent law violation. The man apparently has the speeding hab it and he can't quit, regardless of who is Governor. Davidson and Duke Open Season Fri day. Davidson. Jan. 7.—Davidson Col lege and Duke University will open the North Carolina collegiate basket ball season here Friday night at the alumni gymnaisum. During the holi days additional seats have been con structed so as to provide room for the visitors, the Wildcat authorities expecting the home court games to draw larger crowds from the sur* rounding towns and cities than in previous seasons. The basketball squad reported a day ahead of the other students, starting practice anew on Tuesday morning. However, a recent death in the family of Hewlette, speedy forward fin last year’s quint, has for the time deprived the team of one of its most valuable men. Rule, who was playing forward along with Cap tain Laird in the two games with nearby “Y” teams before the holidays, will again start at that position. Revolution of Public Opinion In Nat fun to Aid Democratic Cause. Sidney. Ohio. Jan. 7.—Chiding “timid souls who would put ex pediency before principle because they are dishenrtened by Democratic losses.” James M. Cox, former gov ernor of Ohio, in a letter read at a Jackson Day eelebrutkm here, called ■fo* positive leadership by “men un afraid.” The former governor and Demo cratic Presidential nominee in 1920 likened the existing political situa tion to that which prevailed at the birth of the. Democratic party and which again Appeared with the elec tions of Jackson and of Wilson. A revolution of public opinion will result, he predicted. . from the ad ministration policy, which “concerns nothing save the welfare of the dol lar.” I ' NATIONAL SHOW WEEK ) JANUARY 9-16 Exhibiting the Improved Fqf*d Oars and Featuring the latest Ford Equipment fc-om January 9 tp 16» all Fo*d Deafen will hold a National Show the im proved Ford can End featuring the latest > fr"' Fbrd equipment.

It ooas a night of vrild adven ture for all of them. CHAPTER XVl—Continued "Thing* have happened so rapid ly, so confusingly,” began Aunt Celimeifa, “I don’t know which way to turn.” I “This way,” advised Sweetie, pointing to the hall. “You turn right around this way to go straight upstairs; eyes left. Join me and you won’t be seen by the world. Pretty slick, that, eh? I’ll have to jot it down and sell it to the Marines.” “Tell it to the Marines is the way the saying goes,” numbled Aunt Celimena, fottowiag Sweetie to the door. “I know it but you can’t tell the Marines anything, ma’am, and you can sell them the Pacific Ocean.” Left alone with Connemara, Bing gt once proceeded to press his suit i—or, rather, it was Mr. Merrill’s suit, Connie, turning crimson, push ed him away. She had caught a glimpse of Lacy approaching from the hallway. “Oh, I say, Connie,” protested Bing. “We’re all alone now. Wp’re engaged, aren’t we? Didn’t you——” “We are not engaged,” she broke in quickly. Lacy was enter r — n "Ltttettt vl sweat- tS ybu, Conne mara, I’ve been in love with yott ever since the day I first saw yon.

There was a light in his eyes that could not be misinter preted. Her own eyes wavered, and he hid read something in their shining depths that gave him cour age. “Some Other time, Bing,” mur mured the fft-1. “Don't hurry me.” 1 “That's Hi right, old chip" beamed Lacy, slightly exalted.; “She’S already Been through a tot of unpleasant things in the past fe-W hours.” \ | “Ye»—let’s change the subject,” cried Connemara, eagerly and grate fully. “Xml Us lU about yourself, Bhtg.

I can not rest untH I have placed that fifty thousand dollars in Mr. Bob 1 1 Merrill’s hands to be turned over to the government 1" “Fifty thousand what?” gasped Bing, as she started to leave the room. “Bones,” replied, Lacy, following “I hid the money down vn the beach,” she ekphuned, hurriedly, “near the house where that ftinny looking Bugle lives.” “I’ll go With you, Connie,” said Bing, springing to his feet. StupU fication had held him rooted to the chair. “See here, Carrington,” said Lacy, surveying the late arrival with a critical, even pitying air; “you can’t* gd running about in that awful suit of clothes. Ybu’re a sight, old man. I’ll tell you what. We’re about the same size. I’ll fit you out with a suit of mine. Come along to my room with me. Don’t go yet, please,” to Connemara. “I’ll be down in a minute or two and we’ll go to the beach together while Mr. Carrington is changing his clothes. It’S too far for you to walk there and back, so I’ll get the roadster. We can park it at the lien-ills’ and cut through their place to the Beach. By the way, you can use my razors too, Carrington, if you like. You certainly need a shave. So don’t hurry. Take all the time you like. No doubt you’d like a bath. You——” "I had a bath last night,” said Bing surlily. “The more the merrier,” quoth the sparkling-eyed Lacy, slapping the other on the back. Then, grasping hii arm, he hurried him upstairs, but not without a look ol appeal to the girl below. In an incredibly short space of time he rejoitfed her and they set out for 'the beach. But it was not until they hjd left the little green roadster in the Merrills’ drive, Sit'd were on their way down to the water that either of them spoke. “I’ve never forgotten you,” Lacy Slid theh, Softly and abruptly, out of that long silence. “Ever since the day in Auteuil your face has haunted me.
