this place informs us that every detail
is being arranged to make the trip a
pleasant, comfortable and quick one.
The accommodation will be ample to
carry all who want to go.
Mr.. Burton would be pleased for all
who want to go, outside of the college
and graded school parties. to let him
know at once go that he can make the
necessary arrangements to accommo-

once and give him your name.

THE JOINT DEBATE
And Anniversary Celebration OF the Literary
Societies of Newberry College-A
Strong and Logical Debate Be
fore a Crowded House.

On Friday night the anniversary cele-
bration of the literary societies of New
berry College was held. There is always
the greatest interest taken in these occa-
sions by the people of Newberry, and on
Friday night, although the weather was
inclement, the house was crowded.
The Excelsior and Phrenakosnlian So
cieties were represented in the debate and
by an orator, and the Philomatheau,
the young ladies' society of the college,
by an essayist. The excellent program
was we'll carried out i'll every particular.
In fact, the opinion was freely expressed
that tuis celebration was one of the best
in the history of the societies.
Mr.. w. c. Summer presided with ease
and grace. The question for debate was:
Resolved, That children under ID years
of age should be prohibited by law from
working in cotton mills and factories.
The Phrenakosmian Society, as repre-
sented by Messrs c. L. Wessinger and S.
P. Frick. upheld the affirmative side of
the question, and Messrs. W. F. Beden-
baugh and c. D. Elmore, of the Excel
sior Society, argued the negative. Some
strong argument was brought forth by
both sides, and the speakers held the at
tention of the large audience to remark
able degree. The decision was awarded
the Alternatives. The committee was
composed of the Rev, w. L. Seabrook,
Prof. B. H. Johnstone and DR.. W. E. Pei

1t is safe to say that the entire audience
did not agree with the decision arrived at,
after long consultation, by the COM
mite.
There was no orator from the Excelsior
Society on account of the sickness of Mr..
J. w. Ba1lentine, who was to have deliv-
cred an oration or "The Progress of a
Century,"
Mr. H. A. Fulmer was the Phrenakos-
mian orator. His subject was, "a Ma
tons Grief.'
Last on the program was Miss Margue-
rite Cromer, representing the Philoma-
thean Society, She read an essay, sub
ject, THE Prize the Vanquished Cain"
The essay was we'll written, the thought
being clothed in choice and beautiful
language.

catout from slIkwcrms.

Probably but a small percentage Of
the fishermen who use flies strung
with fine translucent "catgut" are
aware that the almost unbreakable
substance that holds the cruel hooks
against the fiercest struggles of the
struck fish comes from silkworms. The
principal center of manufacture OF
this kind of catgut is the island Of
'Procida, In the bay of Naples, but
most Of the silkworms employed are
raised near Torre Annunziata, at the
foot of Vesuvius. The caterpillars are
killed Just as they arc about to be-
gin the spinning of cocoons, the silk
glands are removed and subjected to
a process of pickling, which is a Sc
cret Of the trade, and afterwards the
threads are carefully drawn out by
skilled workers, mostly women. The
length of this thread varies from

I'he Kansas City Star opened its col

ing the size Of the big ears OF corn
raised in Kansas and Missouri last
summer. There was hardly farmer
in either State that did not have a
story to tell. Ears OF corn with 1100
and 1909 grains in them seem to have
been matters Of common occurrence,
Others went as high as 400 and 1900,
Ed Johnson of Kackley, Kan, for ex.
ample, went into one of his fields one
day and picked at random four ears,
which averaged 1929 grains each. A

ear which was only twelve inches long,

Oklahoma, reported an ear of corn
twelve inches in length and eleven
in circumference. But all these are
beaten by one ear which was raised
by G. H. Cleveland, Of Tulsa, I. IT,, in
1901. This ear had thirty rows of
grains around it and fifty-six grains
lengthwise. The total number of
grains on the cob was 1850. This is

Llahr as a HeaIlnn Rcenr.

In view of the growing Importance
of the application of light as a heal
Ing principle in medical science the
medical congress which recently con
vened at Wiesbaden invited Prof Bic
Of Copenhagen to read a paper on the
subject. The lecturer explained the
principle Of employing light for heal
lrg purposes after excluding its chem
ical effects. The results obtained by
this method in cases Of smallpox, ac
cording to the lecturer, are such that
the question is raised whether the
light treatment shall not be made
compulsory. Prof. Bic approves the
apparatus invented by Dr. Finsen OF
Copenhagen, with which the latter has
achieved such remarkable success in
cases of lupus, but urges that no one
but qualified doctors should be allowed
to apply the light treatment, as dis
turbances are apt to occur which rem

A Rnttleship,s Grent Reoord.

The British battleship Hood has just
accomplished feat which reflects
greatest credit on her officers. She
sailed from Malta to Devonport, a dis
tance of 2035 miles, without a rudder,
at an average speed Of nearly thirteen
knots. She made a run from Argostoli
to Malta with a disabled rudder, and
when an examination was made at the
latter port it was found that she would
have to have a new steering apparatus.
The old rudder was shipped aboard
and the ship started for home, steering
with her twin screws. Her perform
ance would have been a very good one
