knitting Mills Progressing Nicely.

A short visit to the Oconee Knitting
Mills last week gave us quite an exalted
opinion of the work as it is carried on in
this modern mill. The machinery is
trained up as true as die, runs smoothly
and the work progresses without inter-
ruption while the visitor looks and mar
wells at the movements of the machines as
they turn out yard after yard of tube
like knitting, which ID constantly being
transferred to other machines, where the
heels and toes are put on. 1t is interest
ing to note tn Q work as it develops from
the cone shaped spools of yarn into the
finished sock or stocking-especially the
latter. Messrs. Moss and Schroeder have
everything in splendid shape, and the
output increases daily. Yesterday it
amounted to 155 dozen pairs, finished and
ready for the die. This is the largest
output for a single day so far. They ex-
pect soon to reach 175 dozen per day.
These mills are credited with being high
in the rank of the best Southern mills.
The goods are beginning to find ready

from the local trade in the county as
well as from jobbers in other States.

The second quarterly conference of the
Walhalla circuit convened with the
Methodist church at Newry last Saturday
sxAtk II a. m. The presiding elder, Rev. r.
SZ7 rbert Jones, was present and presided
'NSSer the meeting. Owing to the very
busy time among the farmers the at
tendance was not very large, but the re-
ports were very encouraging. The Sun
day school work on the charge is pro
crossing fairly well, and the spiritual
state of the church is excellent. The
Methodists at Millville (Walhalla) have
withdrawn from the union Sunday
school, and have organized a school of
their own. Their superintendent, w. K.
Alexander, was present. and spoke very
encouragingly of the work there, stating
among other things that his school had
recently purchased a splendid organ.
This was very gratifying to the presiding
elder, whose duty it is to watch over the
spiritual and temporal affairs of his
district. Rev. c. D. Mann, Rhett Doyle
and III. j. Sligh were appointed com.
mittee to examine the quarterly and
church conference records and author
lied to report their findings at the next
quarterly conference, which will be held
at Double Springs. w. e. Alexander, Of
Walhalla, and j. Matt Whitmire, of
Newry, were elected delegates to the
district conference at Bolton, July 1928.
The presiding elder preached Saturday
night and Sunday morning, going to

How FooIscap Got Its Name

Everyone probably has wondered
why certain size paper, familiar to
all who write, is called foolscap. AS
early as the year 1901 water marks
were employed by paper manufacturers
to distinguish their products One
grade of paper much in demand during
the Middle Ages, resembling what we
call foolscapand known by that name,
had tor it's water mark a fools head
wearing cap and bells. The mark APP
peared on this grade of paper until the
middle of the seventeenth century,
when the figure of Britannia was sub
stituted by the English manufacturers,
and other marks by other papermak-
ers. No one has, however, changed the
name of the paper, SO we have to this
day the foOlscap paper.
