OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
s. c. LIVE STOCK ASSOCIATION.

Columbia, Special.-The South Care
lima Live Stock Association met In tae
rooms of the Chamber Of Commerce
last week. There was slight misan-
derstanding regarding the date and
place of meeting, which resulted In
smaller attendance than was ex-
pected, though there was a represea-
tatiye attendance and much enthusi-
asm was displayed by all present. A
notable feature of the, meeting was
the presence of Mr.. L. Studebaker, ..
noted breeder of Hereford cattle. at
Bluffton, Ind. His presence and the
talk he made were Of great interest,
especially his methods used In breed
ing cattle that have sold as high as
$4,000, the latter figures being the
price obtained for his famous Here
ford bull, The Dale"
After some preliminary clerical
work had received attention, Pres-
dent John G. Mobley, of Winnsbors,
called the meeting to order. and the
m inutes of the meeting held at Glenn
son College during the farmers In
stitute last August, were read and aR-
proved. Apropos Of the resolud6ns
passed at that meeting. Mr.. W. r.
Harris, of Ripley, ordered a rescta-
ton, consolidating the Live Stock As.
sociation and the Dairyman's Asss-
citation into one organization, 10 be
known as the South Carolina Live
Stock Association. The constitutions
adopted at the August meeting wae
read and adopted for the genera AS
sociation, and a set of bylaws were
also adopted. A resolution was passed
requesting all live stock organizations
that will accept this constitution ana
bylaws to become members OF this
Association. The object Is not to de-
stroy the identity Of these organiza-
tions, but to form one strong central
association with several sections. rep
resenting the special branches OF the
live stock industry of the State.
The officers elected for the ensuing
year are: President, John G. Mobiey,
of Winnsboro; first vice president,

thorized to publish the constitution
and bylaws, with roll of the mem-
bers, in pamphlet form The question
of holding a meeting Of the AssOcia-
ton at Columbia in February. at the
time the Fair Association meets, uas

live stock organization, that Is des-
tined to become a power and press
forward many questions and prob
lens that concern our stock industry
in all of its phases, and will exert q
great influence in the upbuilding Of
the breeding industry so long neg
lected.

day.

The fortnightly tournament for the
women's handicap cup at the arsenal

played under distressing weather con-
ditions. a steady drizzle continued

soaked greens made good golf impos-
sible. In spite of these conditions 10
competitors entered the contest and
a large proportion of them turned in
complete scores.

"a score of 1913, playing from scratch.

REPORT OF OBJECTIONS TO
REV. FAWCETT DENIED

\ report is being given publicity
throughout the state that there are
objections developed which may pre-
vent the ordinafion of Rev. NJ. Ed
ward Fawcett, of Chicago. to the po-
sition of bishop of the Episcopal do
cCse of Quincy. to which he was elect
ed several weeks ago. The report is
that the staid element of the church
is opposed to Rev. Fawcett for the
position on account of his liberal
views and the fact that he is in the
habit of taking hand in wholesome
sport.
Rev Fawcett, who is an amateur
yachtsman, returned to Chicago yes
terday afternoon from a fishing trip
in northern Wisconsin. He denied the
rumor that opposition had developed
against his elevation. The postpone
ment of his conservation, he said,
was due to delay in Chicago in send
ing the formal notification papers to
Presiding Bishop Clarke, of Rhode

BEADWORK FAD HAVING
ARUN IN ROCK ISLAND

Rock Island is entering upon an
Indian beadwork fad that threatens
To involve the entire feminine popu-
lation. Indian beads are sold i'll vari-
Gus stores They come in every hue
of the rainbow-white and black,
green and yellow, red, cut steel, pur-
pie serege, lavender, pink, gold, silver,
sky blue and sangum blabunt, and
other colors. if other colors there be.
You can buy a bunch" of them for
so cents, Il small bunch for nickel,
or YOU can purchase them by the
thimbleful or by the bunch, or the
string. Of them the girls weave
chains, belts. pocketbooks and purses,
stock collars, bangles, bracelets, or
namentS for dresses and score of
other things as their fancy may die
tate The variety known as the irri-
descent bead is popular, instead of
the opaque bead which the Indian
uses. The effect is very pretty, and
the bead work gives the worker a
rare opportunity of displaying her
artistic abilities. She may fix up her
own patterns, and thus claim all the
honor.
Warps and looms may be purchased
at the stores where beads are sold.
The warp of heavy linen thread is put
on the loom. The beads are strung
up on a string and with needle WOW
en- into the warp in any design de
sired. Though the work is intricate,
tedious and slow. it is very fascinat-
ing. and will likely prove more long
lived fad than the average.
