Then comes a general breaking up
stretching, pulling, mixing up, and
strengthening out on various different
machines known as "opener, breaker
intermediate picker and fnisher."
All the time King Cotton is OH
these various racks of torture, all for
eign substance is shed, and dust and
unnecessary particles deposited along
the way on the floor. He goes on to
the doubling machine where four
t~hicknesses are placed, but out
only one, being stretched on the way.
Then he goes to the big carding ma
chine where all thought of the little
hand cards of our grandmother van
ish and we give ourselves over to new
ideas and new methods. Only, the
grandmother's way is a sort of clamp
to our feet" in understanding these
intricate methods into which it has
progressed or evoluted.
From the carder it comes out long,
beautiful ropes, so beautiful that /
do not know anything to compare it
to, and is coiled into cans. Six of
these cans are put to a drawing
frame machine. Six beautiful, snowy,
endless ropes are drawn out into one,
which we are told is for the purpose
of getting fibre. They are drawn
three times, then are twisted at an
other machine called the "slubber,"
then into two frames, intermediate
or fly frame and jack frame, where
they are stretched out small as
thread, the big spools on which it is
wound making twelve hundred revo-
buttons to the minute.
But right here / want to speak of
the cotton when it comes from the
carder, away back before it began
to have any semblance of thread. 1t
is very beautiful indeed. All you
who went to ST. Louis remember the
electric candy machines where they
made, from a spoonful of sugar, a
quart of such lovely candy that look
ed like heaps of fine spun glass. Well.
that's just how the cotton looks when
it comes from these big carding ma
chimes; beautiful enough to wear on
your hat; good enough to eat. Those
of you who did not GO to st. Louis,
or see the electric candy, but have
seer the cotton Just from the carder.
know just how the electric candy
looks, for thev look just alike-each
one like the other.
But to go back to our jack frame
where we were watching the ceaseless
whirl and buzz. From this frame it
is first drafted and twisted and then
goes to the spinner when the revolu-
tions reach ten thousand to the min
ute, the threads looking like endless
cob-webs as they whirl.
In this room are very bright little
girls busily engaged, keeping up de-
tached ends, rolling in creels and
keeping machinery clean. They earn
from seventy-ive cents to a dollar a
day. The work is not laborious, and
while it is all day work, these children
can attend school when they desire
and resume their places when expedi-
ent.
Perhaps one of the most interest
ing of detail processes is the knot
ting or tieing of the threads which
is done by a little machine worn

fluffy everlasting snow bolls q al
ways want to call them "snow balls")
into yards and yards of soft cloth,
creamy, white and almost un~tearable.
To the uninitiated, the vision of
old-fashioned cards, and perhaps a
hand loom seen somewhere in the
indefinite past, rises as a f~orerunner
of what we are going to see. Of
course IN a larger scale, but the pro-
cesses through which the plant is put
before it is made into shape for my
lady's wearing are so many and va
ried that to the novice the trans
formation seems almost magical; and
the whirling. animated spools and
distaffs are the ~magacian's wands
for transforming.
But here we go down into the en-
CINE room, where a compound en-
CINE is used. The mills are run by
electric power, but this is furnished
b. water and steam; and there is a
reserve engine in these big engine |
rooms for running the big Apalache
Mill, two miles away, should that
mills water-power fail or weaken
from N cause. These engine rooms
also contain a turbine engine-the
only one at present in the State. Of
course it takes immense power to
run so large a mill, but these big en-
gines in the big engine rooms at the
Victor Mills look big enough to sup
ply the whole State of South Caro-
lima with electric power.
From these mammoth engine rooms
we go across a small yard to start at
the very beginning with the cotton

outside of the bales are stripped and
through which the cotton is drawn

THE STAR STAR-GAZER
Mrs. Fleming Has Found More Stars
than Anyone Else in World Is History.

Annie E. 8. Beard in World Today.
To have discovered more stars than
any other person in the history Of the
world is worthy distinctions in the an
mails Of astronomy. That the record has
been achieved by a woman makes it the
more unusual. Mrs. Williamina Flem-
ing herself, however, does not care to
have emphasis laid on this fact. To her
the addition to scientific knowledge IS
last she added still another to her long
list Of discoveries, that Of F|noyao y
in the constellation Aquilla. ,..s,,:: ::
In examining the spectra Of more
than million stars she has discovered
eight new stars, only three such stars
having been found by other astronomers
during the same. period of time. Of
the rare class Of fifth type stars she
has found eighty.four, only fifteen hay
thrruout the world. Incidentally she
has found many other objects Of inter
est, including 200 new variables. Much
time has been devoted to measurements
Of the position and brightness Of these
-objects. -. - -,
Aside from the direct astronomical
research accomplished by Mrs. Fleming,
vast amount of work has been done
by her in aiding in the preparation and
of the Harvard Annals and other publ.
cations Of the observatory. She also
assists in the official correspondence
adm other executive work Of the insti.
tuition, including the. superintendent
of corps of about fifteen women as
sistants. She is a. contributor to various
