ahts.0f.Way For New Road.

The promoters of the South Carolina
and Georgia railway are busy at this
time securing rights of way between
Oolumbit and Augusta preparatory to
beginning the work Of grading for the
road. Committees of citizens, living:
along the route the road will take are
securing the rights of way and in most
instances they are having little trouble
as the people appreciate that the new
road will mean untold development to
their immediate sections.
Mr.. Gadsden Shand, who is interest
ed in the road as engineer, went to
New York recently to confer with M.
P. lMcGrath, who has the contract for
building the road, but Mr.. McGrath
was in Canada. Heis expected to come
to this state in the near future.

securing of rights of way and lend
other assistance, if needed, held con-
ference with the chief engineer, Gads-
den E. Sband, for the purpose Of To-
eating the proposed route as near as
possible. It was decided that another
route be surveyed within the next few
days, and thereby give the right of
way people some basis to work upon.
Mr.. James U. Jackson of Augusta,
who will build the road. recently made
a trip over the proposed route and
found that the citizens are strongly in
favor Of it and will lend all assistance
possible in patting the project through

Take Plenty OF Time 70 Eat.

There is saying that "Rapid eating
is slow suicide." If you have formed
the habit of eating too rapidly you are
most likely suffering from indigestion
or constipation, which will result
eventually in serious illness unless
corrected. Digestion begins in the
mouth. Food should be thoroughly
niasticated. Then when yon have a
fullness of the stomach or feel dull and
stupid after eating, take one of Chan
berlain's Tablets. Many severe cases
of stomach trouble and constipation
have been cured by the use of these
tablets. They are easy to take and
most agreeable in effect. For sale by

FARM DOING we'll
Cultivation of Public School Plat
Shows Progress

The ten acres of land on the hill
back of the old Keller factory site,
purchased last year by the Board OF
Education for an experimental farm
for the use of, the agricultural de-
partment of the high school, is doing
we'll, thank you. Last year, in spite
of care and cultivation, not very much
but fine crop of weeds was raised,
owing to the presence of a large
amount of quack grass. This year
things are different. In the spring a
lot of fruit trees of different kinds,
and also strawberries, raspberries and
other fruit, were set out. Part of
these were bought of Wilwerding the
Freeport nurseryman and the rest Mr..
Wilwerding donated. Instructor K.
A. Norsen, assisted by John Loid, has
been waging a fierce and insistent
war against quack grass this year and
has it nearly eradicated. Last year
the crop of flax raised almost, but not
quite, paid the expense of operating
the plat. This year if things 60 as
they now give promise of doing, some
money will be made.

Allow us to calculate that she was
some battle Sunday, although in the
first stages Of the game it looked as
if Glenwood were trying to undo the
mistake she made in taking our
athletes into camp the foregoing Sum-
day.
Preliminaries were omitted and
Vincent struck out Reed to COM
mence with and Peterson and Land
ing were easily retired. Then came
the attack of the locals in the first.
1t was a real swatfest including
two base drives by G. Vincent and
Wills. Jacobson, Vincent and
Wills scored.
Glenwood retaliated in the second
and registered twice, one run however
being of questionable variety. Two
were out when Wills caught Fisher
coming from second, lat the same time
Jenkinson crossed the plate. How
ever the Jumps called the score legal.
The attack of the locals was renew
ed again in the second inning and
in this melee Arnestad, G. Vincent
and Fosgate made the score read to
2. Fosgate showed his ability as a
marathoner at this period; he beat
out a grounder to short, stole second
and third and scored on a grounder to
second although he found it necessary
to do the Tango at the plate to
avoid being touched. Belefeuille
counted in the fifth, Keihn pulling
out of an embarrassing position with
Ftwo Sank Centreites on stations. ~:
Glenwood drew blanks up to the
sixth when Reed and Peterson CON
nected and both scored on slow field
ing BY Collins who was replaced by
Fosgate in the seventh They boost
ed it. again in the seventh when Fish
er made the circuit after 'aSseries Of
clouts. '-:* -. So .':::,.
Vincent scored the last run for the
locals in the eighth when he got on
through close decision at first, pill
fered second and third and scored af-
ter a Honus Wagner slide to the
plate. Score, Sank Centre, 8; Glen
wood. 5.
In the very next inning the comedy
business of tying the count was start
ed and the sympathies of the onlook-
ers were visibly distorted for Glen
wood started something they nearly
forgot to finish. Two of their war
riors counted before they laid down
their bludgeons and everybody breath
ed easier when Wills threw Keihn
out to S. P. Sure Pinch) Hansen at
first.
Fish and Wollen acted as arbitrat-
and their work was of big league Or

Segregation Urged as Answer
To Great Social Evil Problem

'It is absolutely impossible to suppress
prostitution without recreating the hu-
man race, and to do that II would be
necessary to go back not only 5000 years.
but 100000 years.
That is the declaration made by Hon.
Arden Foster, International commission
err for the British Federation for the
Emancipation of Sweated Women, Girls
and White Slave Victims, who was in
Washington recently enlisting the aid of
President Wilson in the aims of the fed
GRAFTON.
Foster is a man of about fifty years of
age who has spent his life in efforts
to help white slave victims and to reduce
the evils of prostitution.
He has travelled and studied all over
the world. In the United States alone he
has journeyed 5000 miles in his work.
The federation has the support of many
prominent people in England. the list of
patrons including many titled ones who
are well-known for their philanthropic
and social work.
Fosters course here to the President
was made easy by the English Ambassa-
dor, James Bryce, recommending him to
the State Department. He will remain
in this country few weeks.
Wants Work to Bear Fruit.
Foster was Police Court reporter for
several London papers in his younger
days, and it was then he first began his
study of the social evil. From that time
until now his life has been devoted to
that work and efforts to reduce that evil.
The federation. Of which he is the inter-
national commissioner, was organized for
the purpose Of reducing prostitution by
preventing girls and women being forced
into such a life through necessity Of
earning their bread.
Foster readily consented to be inter-
viewed. Is he desires his life of conse-
Grafton to the cause to bear good fruit.
He did not want to be quoted as giving
the opinions Of the federation on segre-
CATION, as some Of its patrons may dis
agree with him.
However. he is the working head of the
federation and his knowledge is practical
first-hand Information, gathered in many
countries and verified by observations of
q lifetime.
