The contributions which the peo-
pie of the United States are making
to the comforts and requirements Of
the daily life of those in other parts
OF the world are scarcely realized even
by those supplying the articles 30
contributed. How little does the girl
or woman employed III the factory
realize that the cotton cloth being
manufactured with her cooperation is
to become holiday dress for some
other girl or woman in China or In
dia. or the Philippines, or South Afri-
ca, or the islands of the East or West
Indies! How little does the boy or
man who engages in the daily round
OF farm life realize that the bacon to
be made from the pigs which he feeds
is to go into the homes of Liberia, and
Portuguese Africa, and French Ocea-
mia, and Asiatic Russia, or that the
eggs which he collects may be export
ed to British Guiana, or Peru, or Cuba,
or Central America, or the various
countries of Europe! Yet these and
many other curious and interesting
incidents of the neighborly interchang-
rs between our own people and those
OF other and distant parts of the world
are shown as part of the every year,

recorded by the Bureau of Statistics

The committee in Greenville decid-

sessions of the Convention. the first
meeting at o'clock in the afternoon,

Well arranged programs for these

pected that DR.. J. 4. Henderson. sec
retary Of the Laymens movement in

be present, and an effort is being made
to have DIR. A. j. Vining, of London,

Vining is man Of wonderful power,
and every effort is being made to
have him present. DIR. VIM. II. Smith,
OF the Foreign Missions Board, Rich
mond Va, will also be present, and
everything points to an enthusiastic
meeting.
All those who contemplate attend
ing should write to DR.. r. G.. Quattle
baum Columbia, s. c.. in order that
accommodations may be secured AS
is customary with the laymen at their
conventions. they will not expect en-
tertainment, but owing to the fact that
the legislature will be in session. and
doubtless the hotels somewhat crowd
ed, those who attend this convention
should send in their names to DR.. H.
G.. Quattlebaum. Columbia. s. c.. so
that he may advise in reference to
securing Accommodations.

with an expansive power in proportion to the
weight and height OF the body.
