$4,000 Mark Reached.

Charleston, April 26.-Successs
crowned the medical college campaign
today when the totals were shown to
have aggregated something over $500
more than the $4,000, which was the
goal fixed by the'team workers at the
start. 1t was ineeed a whiylwind
campaign that the doctors and other
workers put In day, and the last
luncheon was as enthusiastic as the
first with everybody feeling better
than the campaign was so auspicious-
ly opened last Monday. A number Of
the team workers doubled or added
to their contributions, as the reports
showed exactly what was lackin, in
making good the amount OF money
that is needed. George W. Williams
was among those who increased his
contribution, haising his offering from
$500 to $1,000. The doctors and
workers generally are very jubilant
over the results. insuring an adequate
fund with which to build new coll
lege on final site, donated by the
city of Charleston, opposite the Roper
hospital, whore the clinics are gem
orally held.

Pime.

The Laurens Advertiser, in it's last
issue, sought, by implication, to leave
the impression upon the minds of it's
readers that Fountain Inn county
would not be able to pay it's superin-
tendent of education a salary greater
than 5000 the year. The Advertisers
point, of course, was that 5000 would
not hire a man capable of handling the
job-a fact that no one will wish to
dispute.
Since men first began to have diff
ferences of opinion and to argue ques-
tions, 1t has been a favorite device of
political demagogues and insincere
writer's to establish a false premise.
and, reasoning truly from that false
start, to produce an effect of truth in
an absurdity.
1t is device no longer used among
intelligent people, for it is so palpa-
bly, insincere.
The Advertiser, in using it, mani
tests low regard for the brain power
of its reading public.
1t is worse than ridiculous to as
sumo that Fountain Inn county will
be Unable to pay reasonable salaries.
Dillon, Calhoun, Greenwood, Jas
per, Cherokee and Saluda counties are
new and small. Each of them has a
competent superintendent of educa-
ton, no less able than the one en-
ployed in Laurens county
Cherokee county is smaller than
Fountain Inn County will be. More
over, it contains much waste land. Yet
It's school system is equal to that of
Laurens county, and its taxes no
higher

A curious and important fact in the
biology OF the sardine is the sudden
ness with which the little fishes appear
in great numbers and subsequently
vanish, probably In consequence of
changes in oceanic conditions. Accord

In Brittany sardines are caught with
a vertical net, from 1000 to 1900 feet
long and 26 to 33 feet deep, which ia
supported by corks fastened to It's
upper border and is attached to the
stern of the boat by a cord several
yards long. AS the boat moves slowly
against the current the sardines are
lured to the net by sailed cod thrown
on the water. The net is made of
thread SO fine that it is almost invis-
ible and the meshes are of such dimen-
sious that the sardines thrust their
heads through them and are caught by
the gllls.
