LOOKING BACKWARD *TT»e year is dying;—let it die.” We

echo Tennyson’s words. So far as we sire concerned, anybody can have 1931 that wants it. We are all through with it, and we are thankful for that.

It has been a touifh year, but, after all, we still survive. It may or may not have been the worst year, from the economic point of view, in Ameri­can history Some say that it was, and some think that we have had worse. If there were any worse years nobotly remeimbers them.

'The important thintj now is to look ahea<i and see whether 1932 is golnfr to be any better and, particularly, what we can do ourselves to make it better. For one thinK, we think that most pecipk* have dropped the idea

Greenwood, Dec, 28. — A coroner’s jury did not fix responsibility for the automobile collision near here early today resulting in the death of three young men and serious injury of four other persons, including a young wo­man.

Ben Frarier of Greenwood, Ollie Davis of Salak, and William T. Atkin­son of Ninety-Six, formerly of Co­lumbia, were killed instantly and Carl’ Martin, Greenwood postoffice clerk, J. A. Strickland and his son, Boyd Strickland, Ninety Six textile work-

j era, and Miss Irene Durst of Charles- ten, W. Va., were aerioujly injured when the two cars went together head-on in a dense fog on the Calhoun highway five miles east of town.

The verdict was that the three “came to their death in an automobile collision between a Chevrolet and a Ford.”

Frazier, 28, Davis, 19, and Atkin­son, 28, who was a son-in-law of J. A. Strickland, were badly mangled about the head and face and at first were unrecognizable. One was caught, head downward, between the engines of the two cars and the others were crushed on the front seat, with the young woman sitting between them.

The Stricklands suffered fracture of the skulls, but their physicians said today they had reacted from the shock and there waK a chance of their rwovery, while the condition of Miss

CHARLES P. SULLIVANCLAIMED BY DEATH

Laurens, Dec. 28.—Funeral services for Charles P. SullQl^ 50, well known mechanic of the city, were held today at the graveside Tn-the Laurens cemetery, conducted by the Rev. G. H. Hodges, pastor of the First Meth­odist church...

Mr. Sullivan, who was never mar­ried, had made his home for many years with his aunt, Miss hi^mie Sul­livan, and it was at her home that he died Sunday afternoon, after an ill­ness of about three weeks. He was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. SuUivcn, and was prominently con­nected in the city and county.

“I began tak­ing Cardul when In

a weakened, run-down condition,” writes Mrs. F. S. Periit, of Wesson, Mies. ”1 took one bot­tle, and I seemed to im­prove so much that I sent for six bottles. Af­ter I had taken the six bottles, I seemed entire­ly well.

“Before I took Car- dui, I was nervous, rest­less, blue and out of heart I felt depressed all the time. After I took Cardul, all this disappeared.
