supt. w. E. Black of the city
schools, has received letter from
Mr.. B. F. Taylor, Secretary of the
South Carolina Cotton Seed Crushers
Association, offering three prizes
amounting tQs$50.00 for the three best
compositionsto to be written by South
Carolina school children. The SUBJ
iect is s'The Uses of Cotton Seed Pro-
ducts.o
The contest is open to all school
children of South Carolina and will no
doubt bring forth many uses OF cotton
seed meal and cotton oil not now gen.
orally known. The treatment Of the
subject is left entirely with the teach
ers or the scholars Of the schools. MIR.
TAYLOR expects many Of the contes-
tants to treat of the uses of cotton
seed meal as food for horses or for
COWS or for other stock, and at the
same time many will write on the
varied uses Of the oil as a cooking fat,
as an edible and as a household
remedy.
The best composition from each Of
the schools throughout the state will
be selected and sent in 1l-y TO the COM
mittee of judges. The award will be
made early in February, as the COM
positions must all be sentin before the
first OF that month.
It is believed that much interest
will be taken in this contest. Every
mother should encourage her boys
and girls to compete on such occasions.

Newsy Letter From Brookland.

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
The big fire few years ago swept
away nearly every old building; new
ones have since been erected, many
beautiful and modern cottages and a
number of substantial brick and con-
crete business houses. Our new bank,
the new public building erected by
the mill company, and number of
other smaller buildings, mark the on
ward progress of our town.
The city fathers will, at an early
date, put in electric lights, pave the
sidewalks and make other improve
ments, which comes as the natural
results of growing town.
Our graded school, with corps of
five accomplished teachers, is doing
fine work. Our churches are not be-
hind in point Of progress.
The remains Of Miss Carrie Hicks
were laid away in the Shuler ceme-
terry Sunday afternoon. The funeral
services were conducted from the

SOME STATEMENTS
REGARDING new THEORY
Followers of Cooper and His Novel Ideas Give
Reason for Their Belief in Him.

With a theory that human health is
dependent on the stomach and with a
medicine which he says proves this
theory, L. T. Cooper, a comparatively
young man, has built up an immense
following during the past year.
Cooper has visited most OF tho lead
Ing cities Of tho country. and in each
city has aroused q storm Of discussion
about his beliefs and his medicines.
Wherever he has gone. people have
called upon him BY tens OF Thousands,
and his preparation has sold In i'm.
rnense quantities.
The sale Of this medicine has now
spread ever the entire country, and is
growing enormously each day. In view
Of this, tho following statements from

which he now has. are OF general in,

'He Never Said Turkey to Me

This saying was more familiar to
the former than to the present gen.
Grafton, but comparatively few peo-
pie know its origin.
An Indian and white man who
were hunting together killed a crow
and a turkey.
The white man said to the Indian,

the turkey, or I'll take the turkey and
you may have the crow"
The Indian replied, "May be alright
but you don't say turkey to me once"

Publishers hit Hard.

The paper manufacturing trust has
raised the price of newspaper twenty
per cent. In fact the cost of all ma
terials, except brains, used in making
newspapers has been very materially
increased. Some publishers advise a
reduction in the sizes Of the larger
journals, while others think an in
crease in subscription the wiser way
to do. Both sides agree that the de-
linquent subscriber should willingly
and promptly pay his dues and there
by help publishers to be more inde-
pendent in tone and less dependent on
the rtiser.-Exchange

threshold of the number under consideration, Oc.
casion is found for stumbling, in reference to the
'innocency and simplicity of the Eden state" in
volving also his beutu tribute to the children, his
touching words concerning Jesus and his unselfsh
love for the little ones.
This preacher himself is untaught in matters in
volving the church, for while in the mind of God it
had name and place from the foundation OF the
world, yet it had no visible existence among men
during the days OF our Lords life in the earth. The
element to whom Jesus came, and with whom He
dealt directly and almost exclusively, was the Jew,

Holy Ghost, afterwards grouped the world. 'The
Jew, the GENTLE and the Church Of God.'' Jesus
could not in His life deal with the ch0rch, as 1t
grew out Of His death and resurrection, and the
promised enduement by the Spirit Of the Father.

Vast, we saw, when the sun was low,
A trackless forest where none may roam;
But twas not so vast as wood we know
Across three fields from the house at home.
We saw the peaks OF eternal snow,
The SUBMITS that foot Of man ne'er clomb;
But theye not 30 high as hill we know
At the lonely end Of moor at home.
Cities we entered with aglow,
On many palace, many dome;
But they're not 80 grand as a port we know
Wheu the ships come in from the sea at home.
For the sea grows narrow, the hills fall low,
And the world is small when it's bounds you
roam,
But the wonderful world We used to know
Is still out over the hills at home.
