up his theme of education
was known as our educational
and he would
repeat what he bad uttered
times before, that he is in
favor of educating everybody,
end he would go even further
and say he was in favor of
everything. Education is
not only good for people, but it
it good for animals and
tables. We call it improving the
Irish potato when we increase
its value as a food product, but
we are only educating the potato.
We call it breaking a mule when
we go about training the young
animal for service, but we are
merely educating him. If
is good for potatoes and
mules, it is better for folks.
If we educate everybody,
it mean everybody will be equal
Not at all. One star differs from
another star in glory. It is not
for us to say who will be greatest
and who will be least, that is for
God to determine. But it is our
duty to give all an equal chance
and then let God choose the
greatest from among them. If
we educate everybody, some will
continue to e and some
will continue to split rails.
There are big jobs and little
jobs, but it should be the full
man to his respective sphere.

worth at the it should have
been delivered, Carson
failed to make delivery.
The two points set out by the
defendant were that it was a
gambling contract in futures,
and that as the contract had not
been made in writing it was not
valid. Testimony offered by the
plaintiff showed that while the
contract had not been made in
writing there were several com-
witnesses to a verbal con-
tract to deliver the cotton.
The judgment of the court
in favor of the plaintiff on the
ground that Carson being a farm-
engaged in cultivating cotton
he evidently intended to make
delivery of the cotton at the time
of entering into the agreement,
hence it was not a gambling
contract; and that the evidence
clearly showed the existence of
a parole contract even though it
was not in writing. The

AUCTION SALE
Valuable Business Lots
GREENVILLE
Mr. B. E. Parham has placed in my hands for sale his splendid
Warehouse Property
All of this property except the warehouse site will be divided into lots
and sold at public auction on the premises on
TUESDAY, MAY
Beginning at O'clock, A. M.
This property is situated between the Atlantic Coast Line and Norfolk
Southern depots, and is in the business of that part of Greenville
known as Tobacco Town. It consists of lots fronting on Dickinson ave-
which has concrete sidewalks and paved street; lots on Ninth street
which is a sand clay street and the main thoroughfare of Tobacco Town;
lots fronting on Tenth street which is the broadest street in Greenville and
leads direct to the Atlantic Coast Line depot. A railroad siding can be ex-
tended across Tenth street into this property which makes it very
valuable for heavy traffic.
To give an idea of the demand for places of business in this locality,
Higgs Brothers have recently built a brick block containing five handsome
stores just in front of this property and they were occupied as soon as
finished, and there is now a demand for more.
This is a rare opportunity to buy a business site, for this property is
absolutely a safe and paying investment.
Remember the date of sale, Tuesday, May 1910.
