MATINEE O:
NEW YORK'S PREPAREDNESS
Other section? of the 'country that
have been accusing; the Earn of undue
military arder will have to aduilt that
New York state ot least has the cour
age of its con /ouons. Governor Whlt
man has Juet signed several prepar
edness bills which together make an
impressive body of military legisla
tion. '
One bill provides for compulsory
physical training for all school pu
pils in the state over eight years old.
Another establishes moderate but
compulsory military training for all
boys botween 16 and 10 except those
engaged in earning a livelihood. A
third gives the governor power to or
der a draft for the reserve militia
If nil able-bodied men between 18 and
45 at any time, to bring the national
guard up to requirements. OtherB
ure designed .to increase the strength
und efficiency of thc naval militia and
tho aatioital guard. Cse t>, them ap
propriate $500,500 for the mobilization
of the guard this summer.
These measures, considered justi
fied by New York's openness to at
.tnck, should make the state a very
effective unit In any scheme of na
tional defense.'
ARMY Mt'LE VINDICATED
When General Pershing's punitivo
exp?dition dispensed with the usual
army transport wagons in favor of
motor trucks; the famous army, mule
seemed definitely relegated to obscur
ity, Hut subsequent developments
have restored him .to hpnor. again. .The
trucks have : proved to bo better'for
hauling supplies wherever there is
any sort If practicable road. But where
there are no roads, tho mule is as ser
viceable as ever. And in the rough
mountainous regions where the chase
pus led General Pershing's columns,
the mute has certainly proved his met
tle. ;:?>< ?
The American army horse was very
soon found' tb be rio match for the
Mexican Tinny, His size and strength
were of no avail fev the. work at hand,
and he ate too much. The tough little
Mexican beasts*, living on almost noth
ing, could outdistance the best'horses
in a protracted . chase, penetrating
trails where ?tefylorses could not fol
low. But in the Missouri mule even
the ?, lex i csu pony has met his match!
Tho mule is hardy of muscle and
hoof,.apd han shown that ho, too. can
.live off the -country- even when the
picking is as thin an it i.; in-1lie moun
tain and deserts oC'?hlhuahu?v When
there l.t no .corn, or oats or;.graas;. n.
little ^cactus, or imesn'ulto wt?n suf
fice. It everything ohio fails, the phll
pBophlc beast wit contentedly munch
bia own harness. Only ' one . thing,
tho tropera roport, he refuses toVu~
tho Mexican lariat, which isMnade of
horsehair. !'....

The ghoat story carried In thbi col

cause ot many inquiries belog made.
Many people are prone to believe that
thar ia absolutely nothing to the
?'spirit talking". Visitors front Iva
and Starr, in the city yesterday stated
that tho haiinf?d house was still at

ria were still?} going thora every night

This is one of the best rural schools
In Anderson county and the exercises
there today will he largely attended
Manager Trowbridge stated last
night that during the performance of
a "Birth of a Natlou" the Anderson
Theatre would have house rules re?
quiring all ladles to remove their hats.
ThiB is very good 'or this is a too
high priced picture for any one to
have to miss uny part of it because
of someone's hat. Ile also stated that
chairs would he placed in tho lobby
to accomodate nurses who came -with
tho babies whose mothers were at
tending.

One of the principal topic of dis
cussion on the streets of Anderson
theso day? is that of the liquor sit
uation in the Georgia cities and the
manner in which it ?H being dealt
with. Tho authorities appear to be
doing s?.H 'n their pow^r to have the
new prohibition law obeyed, and their'
action ls causing favorable comment
everywhere.
-o- ;
Many of the Anderson people are
beginning to make arrangements for
their vacations. Since Anderson is
located so near the mountains, many
of the inhabitants find it more con
venient to go there for a few w^eeks
in the summer. Oilier:; desire to go
to the seashore, but the mountain
hotels get tho majority of tho vaca
tionists from this section. Week-end
trips to the mountains are always
very popular, and within a few weeks
hundreds of local people will be tak
ing these. The weather BO far has
been very pleasant, taking into con
sideration the fact that lt is past the
middle of irtay.
It s nearly time for the family re
unions to begin. It is said Anderson
county holds the state record In the
number of family reunions held each
year.

Mr. H. B. Fitzgerald, secretary of
the chamber of commerce, has return

.three days, ha .having been called
to his old home in Georgia because
of the illness, of his father.

I drovt around through the resi
dence section of Anderson Borne dnyn
ago. It is one of the prettiest coun
try towns I ever .saw. Too small to
be called n city, lou largo to bu
called a village, it lum reached that
stage where most towns are awkward
and ugly. But it lias few ugly spots j
lt is homelike and clean and whole
some looking. I didn't meet any of
the people, and I'm glad I didn't, for j
< the chances are , thut the llrst man j
i I talked With would have been some
provincial ass -who would have rc-1
Iferred to the place as "our olly," and j
