big dancing feature staged by Pete
Detzel, the O'Brien show evidently in
tends to live up TO its avowed policy
of presenting 'everything new" each
season. Several of those of last years
organization who made pronounced
hits, have been retained. Notably
popular are Eddie Mazier, the jovial
rotund end-man and comedian whose
infectious humor fingers pleasantly in
ones memory. Pete Detzel, the eccen-
trio dancer is also along this year, al
so the diminutive Major Nowak, All
FOntaine, the basso: Walter Lindsey,
the impersonator of feminine charac-
tiers, little George Hagen the boy con-
ira -tenor, George Faust and Dorand
and Strong, all of whom are now iden-
titled with this attraction. But there
are many new faces among both the
principals and chorus For the mono
logist Mr.. O'Brien has secured the
very famous and popular Eddie Ross,
one of the highest salaried and best
known cOrkologists in the world whose
subtle wit and originality was one of
the big hits of the London season the
past year. AS a special vocal feature
Ward Barton the yodler has proved
veritable whirlwind success. Joe
Carey, tenor, Arthur Blake, baritone,
are among the soloists who have made
special hits. The orchestra of four
teen musicians will again be under the
direction of Frank Fuhrer. For the
olio, Mr.. O'Brien has written two new
sketches, one for his own use entitled
Parcels Post" the other for Eddie
Mazier and Major Nowak, called
who's Boss, or Tanning the Militant"
Mr.. O'Brien appears as the typical
good for nothing, but always funny
darkey of the levees, who forsakes
chicken stealing for the greater oppor-
tunities offered in government posi-
ton.

LOVE OF LIFE

Love not the tall spreading wide their
Cooling with their shade the sunny
Love you not the little bird lost among leaflets
Dreamily repeating quaint brief tune?
Is there not joy in the waste windy places;
Is there not song by the long dusty way?
Is there not glory in the sudden hour struggle
Is there not peace in the long quiet day?
Love you not the meadows with deep lush grasses:
Love not the cloud ocks noseess in their flight?
Love not the cool wind that sunrise;
Love you not the stiffness the summer night?
Have never wept with grief that slowly passes,
Have you never laughed when joy goes running by?
Know you not the peace of that follows labor?
You have not learnt to live. then how dare

BLACK ROT OF SWEET POTATOES
AND ITS CONTROL.
Clemson College Extension Work
South Carolina Experiment Station.
Press No. III.

The black rot Of sweet potatoes
seems TO be widely distributed through
South Carolina and in many cases is
causing serious loss. This disease
where present is readily recognized in
the fall when the potatoes are dug.
AT this time it occurs as blac. mot
tied areas over the surface of tie po-
tatoes. The disease does not seem
TO cause trouble in the fall, but when
potatoes affected with il are stored
in banks or houses. the disease be-
comes more active and causes a rot
ting OF the potatoes. In many in
stances we have found whole banks
OF potatoes destroyed by this rot.
1t frequently happens that all of
the potatoes in bank are destroyed
In such instances the ones that keep
through the winter and are not badly
rOtted are used i'm the next crop. The
disease was carried back to the field
on these slips. 1t remains there, at
tacks the potatoes when they form,
and is brought back again to the bank
after digging time. In this way it
continues from year 10 year.
Since this troublesome disease is
spread through the slips which grow
from diseased potatoes, it is very
necessary at this time of year that
We secure seed potatoes for bedding
which are free from disease Where
no such seed potatoes are available.
! it is advisable 10 plant a small por-
ton of the patch from the earliest
slips you can get and then as soon as
these put out vines, making cuttings
from the vines with which 10 finish
I the planting. Black rot is a root
disease and vines taken from disess-
ed plants will produce other plants
/ free from disease. Where the dis
ease is present, it is of course nee
essary to practice rotation. When
you grow sweet potatoes free from
disease, you will find that il is an
easy matter to keep them.

Stood On No Burning Deck.

Another idol wrecked They tell
us now that Casabianca stood on no
burning deck. whence all but him
had fed. because his papa had bid
den him to do.
Rather, as a chronicler puts 1t, he
jumped overheard ito save himself
for another day" The published pa
pers Of Sir Charles Tyler, captain
serving under Nelson at the battle
Of the Nile in 1898, contain the fol-
lowing passage:
Commodore Casabianca and his
son (Onlg 10 years of age, who dur
ing the action gave proofs OF bravery
and intelligence far above his years)
were not SO fortunate. They were in
the water on the wreck Of L'Orient's
masts, not being able to swim, seek
ing each other until three-quarters
past ten. when the ship blew up, and
put an end to their hopes and fears"
III this be a trustworthy account"
remarks The Macon Telegraph, then
the immortal lines Of Mrs. Hemans,
telling the story of the blind, unrea- :
soning but beautifully heroic stead
fastness Of boy are based on myth.
1t is gratifying to find that even by
Sir Charles Tyler's account, young
Casabianca was as brave and devoted
as his friends could have wished
him to be, and that the dear Old story
Is not really spoiled"
The Montgomery Advertiser is
right. The human race instinctively
resents the operations Of the icono-
clast. 1t disappoints us and de-
presses US for an old belief to be as
sailed by some one who prtetends to
have discovered new evidence; but
fortunately the boy who stood on
tho burning deck will continue to in
spire youthful readers and remain a
lesson in the minds of men, who are
boys grown tall"
The shock is too rude. We will

rather than reject Mrs. Heman's lines

minister started on his journey home,
accompanied by two young ladies Of
the choir, when they began a CONVEX

The vital ned of most Southern

most in looking over the farms of the
