Selling Lois at Whitney

A party of Saiisburians and
others attended a hlg lot sale st
Whitney last Thursday, WHEEL a
considerable amount Of property
was sold at auction. It is said
there was large crowd at tia
sale which was delayed somewhat
at the start due to the fact that
the wives of the owners of the
property had not signed an option
secured by the selling agents.
After a lengthy conference be-
tween the owners, the agents, and
the prospective purchasers an
agreement was reached and the
sale started. Four buildings and
lots we're sold and nineteen resi-
denoe lots. The property was bid
off, it is said. by parties who ex-
psct to make a good sum off the
deal. The public is much inter-
ested in the development at Whit.
ney and property values are being
watched with considerable interest.

Columbia, S. G., Oct. 12-
Handsome art posters of unique
design and skilIful execution,
printed IN eight c%olors, will be
posted corspiouously throughout

Fifth National Corn Exposition

R. ilroads throughout the territory

distribution of these posters, and
manv thousands of them will be
placed in this manner and by
other agencies. The design ga
iected was that subn tilted by
Bristow Adams, a Washington ar.
tist. It is most affective work,
bringing together IN an unusual.
ly artistic manner corn, cotton and
live. stock, three things which con-
tribute vastly to the agricultural
prosperity Of the Southeast, and
which are handled by the Exposi-
ton in its unique educational en-
hibits.
Exceptionally low round.trlp
rates to Columbia, on account
Of the Exposition have been IN
ncunced, and in addition to the
educational facilities offered by it,
this event will be characterized by
a grand gathering together of PEG.
ole from all over the Southeast
and other sections. Low rates
will also be put Oh from Columbia
so points in South Carolina and
return, and many cities and towns
IN this State have taken advantage
of this opportunity to announce a
Homecoming week in connection
With the Exposition.

THE IMPORTANCE OF DUST.

Did you know that, according
to. published reports, about one

Gus to their employment by the
city tn $50 men were all examined
by civil service- physicians AMI

New York makes the average i'll

OF course, street sweepers labor
under some of the very worst coll
ditious. The dust they meet
doubtless contains a large amount
of dried sputum and all that, but
did it ever occur to you that it Is
pars of this Very same dust which
every one carries on his shoes and
clothing into houses, churches,
and schoolhous, 8? Now, the
point is simply this; If an ex-
cessiye Quantity OF dust is 80 fatal,
even smaller quantities are unde-
sirable, and therefore the less dust
the better.
One Of the chief sources of dust
is that resulting from the old
fashioned dry broom mathod Of
sweeping our floors. etc. The an
tiquet d feather buster is another
dust evil. By asing some of the
many forms of kerosened bfooms,
sweepers, mops and dust cloths
now on the market, the amount of
dust raised in sweeping and dust
ing, as compared Nth that raised
by the Old dry broom and feather
buster, is reduced from 900 to
$780,.
No spit, no consumptioa. Tu-
bercular sputa is either inhaled
di.ect in the form of finely divid-
ed spray, droplets or mist coughed
up.or spit out by a consumptiye;
u the sputa settles, dries, and is
later stirred up as dust and breath
ed into the lungs. In either Gaze
the bresther runs good chances q
contracting consumption. But
VS. must breathe, and careless con-
sumptiyes will spit, SO let's avoid
careless consumptives and dust.

Mr., Dough!sn To Speak In StanIY.

Reports are being received here
daily of the very effective work Of
Hon. R. L Doughton, Democratic
candidate for Congress, is doing
for the democratic party in the
western pa1t of the district. He
has recently completed a canvass
through Alexander, Ashe and
Vantage, and was greeted every.
here by goodsized, enthusiastic
crowds.
The farmers Of the district ars
evidently proud of theirsrspresent-
alive in Congress, and mis- rec I'd
whils there would seem to justify
it. If the measures he worked 80
hard for had not been killed by a
republican President and Senate,
after being passed by a democrat
ic House, the farmers and every
body else would now lie paying
two cents less for sugar, three or
five dollars less on every suit of
clothes and about fifty per cent
less on farm tools and machinery.
When one reflects that this saw.
ing would amount to more than
double the combined town, county
and State taxes of the average
taxpayer for a year, it. is no won.
der that the business man and
farmers are lined up behind him
with the determination that his
election shall be erwhelming
and this money,saving legislation
thus rendered more certain.
Il Is understood Mr. Doughton
will speak at Bethel, IN Cabarrus
County, on the 23rd and At Mt,
Pleasant in same county on night

said he notified the members of the
board three months ago that If the

eating committee submitted a report
showing that government inspection
could not be secured and that the Sc
lection of a nominee for the position
of city inspector fell to the health
board, the board was to hold itself in
readiness to meet and select an in
spector. DR.. Davis said that excepting
this one case, the board had had no
occasion to meet He furthermore
said that if DR.. Grosvenor, the presi-
dent of the board of health, desired to
hold a meeting, he could legally call
one.

ARE PAYING THEIR
VEHICLE TAXES

The receipts from vehicle taxes to
date are in excess of $4,000. The sum
of SITS was derived from checks is
sued to owners of autos of five or
more seating capacity, $3.50 from four
passenger autos, and 1854 from own
ers of two passenger autos. Motorcy-
Gle owners are slow in securing Ii
censes and only 500 has been received
from this cource. There are about 200
machines in the city. Sixty-eight own
ers have purchased checks. Bicycles
in the number of 1926 have been tag
ged. The sum derived from the sale
of checks for horse drawn vehicles
amounts to $516 from two-horse heavy
rigs, and 1924 from one horse heavy
or two-horse light outfits.
The police say they have not re-
ceived instructions to arrest owners
of vehicles found on the streets with
out tags, although this action was
decided upon at a meeting of the
board of works last Thursday.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 18.-With
the coming of Gov. Hiram w. Johnson
the Progressive candidate for vice
president to Terre Haute this even
ing, Indiana begins the national cam
paign for the party with a whirl that
is designed to continue up to the very
hour of election. While Gov. Johnson
Is probably the most magnetic speak
er of the nation today he Is by no
means the only orator Of note that
will stump the state on behalf of the
Progressive party.
The speakers bureau of the state
committee is planning to have Col.
Roosevelt in the state for two days
in October and while the national COM
mittee has not definitely decided on
the dates, it is understood that 1t
will be somewhere about the middle
of the month, and that he will be used
in the north and south parts of the
state.
1t Is also planned that Bourke Cock
ran, the famous spellbinder of New
York, take the stump in Indiana for
several days, while General w. H. Nc
'Dowell, the ex-confederate officer also
will be used in the campaign.
The plans for the great Johnson
meeting at Terre Haute tonight al
most equal those of the indianapolis
meeting which will be held at Tomlin-
son hall tomorrow night.
