WOLFE BLOUSES.

iceable.

Stylish and Chic, but Not Very Serv-
iceabIe.
Even the most expensive qualities
of wolfe, the smart yelling fabric,
shrink more or less as time goes on,
but SO beautiful Is the soft, transpar-
ent material and so gracefully does it
mold the lines of shoulder and arm
that 1t Is certain to remain In favor
for the more dressy type Of waists,
though for practical, everyday YEA
lawn or batiste models that may be
sent to the washtub without any
qualms are much more satisfactory.
The woman who sets out to en-
broider herself a fascinating wolfe or
marquisette waist for wear this season
will do well to select a rather bold
geometrical pattern. 1t is very diff
cult to do fine embroidery In small
motifs or flower effects on the f1imsy
wolfe, and the threads of the fabric
have a way of coming along after the
needle with the strand of the embroid-
cry floss. Bold motifs which may be
embroidered quickly and in effective
style In smart color harmonies or con-
trasts are best, and such blouses may
easily be fashioned at home, for the
cut of such blouses is absurdly simple,
two seams only being put in and a fin
ish added at neck and sleeves.

DTNAMITING FISH.

Erom what we can gather from peo-
pic living in that section, it seems
that the practice of dynamiting fish
is being carried on in the Mt. Olive
neiGhborhoOd. This is contrary to law
and lays the one who does il as much
liable to punishment as ii he were
guilty OF shooting his neighbor. The
laws arc very clear on this subject
and they are y cant to be obeyed. 1t
is rather hard to catch up with peo-
pie who violate these laws, but string
ent efforts should be put forth to ap-
prehend the guilty parties. Our fish
and game are becoming scarcer and
scarcer every year. due almost entire
ly to ruthless and hear;iess hunters
and fishermen who cannot be possibly
placed in the class of sportsmen.
Doubtless our rural policemen. who
are doing such good work at this time
for the preservation of order over the
county, will look into this matter and
see that the guilty parties are brought
to justice.

THE DEFEAT OF NAPOLEON.

Manager Garnt has made arrGnge-
ments for another OF those spectacu-
lar films which he has been showing
the people of Laurens recently. This
time he will have brilliant film de-
picting the defeat of Napoleon around
Moscow, when the great leader was
forced to retreat on account of lack
of provisions.
This moving picture film is con-
sidered by all authorities upon the
subject as the most magnificent and
spectacular military drama in the
world, costing about $25OOO.OO. 1t
depicts in wonderful photography Ma

stroying by fire dwellings and pro.

THE STORY OF ROLAND.
After three years of service. Gren-
adler Roland is honorably discharged
and returns home to we'd his fiancee.
Helene. but is plunged in grief to
learn that she has been unfaithful and
has wed a French officer To divert
his mind from this unfortunate love
affair he reenlists on the eve of the
departure of the army for Russia. and
finds himself under the command of
Helenes husband
Confident OF the victory of the in
vading army, Helene joins her hus-
band at the outposts, and there Ro-
land comes face to face with her. The
meeting is highly dramatic. He nings
bitter reproaches at her and she re-
plies with sharp retortS. At that mo-
ment the officer comes up. and Ro-
land Salutes his superior and departs.
The next day the battle of Moscow
takes place,-a thrilling scene with
belching cannon and struggling SOL
diers, and Helene's husband falls
wounded and his command is swept
back. When word is brought to Hell
enc her grief is touching, and she
seeks Roland and implores him to
rescue the fallen man. Roland plung.
es back into the maelstrom OF death
and destruction, and midst a rain of
bullets and bursting shells
carries the officer to safety.
Defeated. the Russians burn the city
of Moscow and flee. the spectacular
contlagrations in the distance pre-
an awe-inspiring spectacle.
Napoleon takes possession Of the city
but his victory is short-lived for no
provisions are to be had and he is
forced to retreat.
The troops suffer from hunger and
cold and the Russians harass them
with swift attacks which deplete the
ranks. Helene and her wounded hus-
band endure untold tortures. which
are lessened. however. by the faithful
attendance OF Roland who devotes
loyally to their care"
