MOVIES WILL SHOW CONGRESS-

Memjhis, Tenn, Jan. 2O.-Showing
the Mississippi flood devastation, its
magnitude, and the means of contro!l-
ing the stream and preventing floods,
one of the most remarkable moving
picture films ever exhibited in Mem
phis, was shown to a provate audience
at one of the Majestic Theatres yester
day afternoon.
The film is 500 feet long and was
made by S. W. spangler, of Helena,
Arkansas.
1t shcws the 1913 flood at its worst
near Helena, Ark, the Beulah crevase,
and the manner in which it was closed
despite a high stage of water.
This film will be exhibited before
members of the House and Senate in
Washington next week. John A. Fox,
Secretary-M Manager of the Mississippi
River Levee Association, will use it
as an argument in favor of the Rane3-

NOLAN MAY
YET CO FREE

Atlanta, jan 20.-Though still ac-
cusing James Nolan of the NJ C. & S..
L. train robbery, it is understood this
morning that the police have about
convinced themselves that he is not
the man who actually committed the
crime. They hope, however, still to
prove that he had some knowledge of
it and possibly some hand as an access
sorry.
The detectives are at this very time
putting the prisoner through a con
tinuation of the third degree grilling
in the hope that they will force ad-
mission from him that will lead to
the arrest of the real bandit.
An Interesting feature of the situa-
ton is that when the prisoner was
first arrested and before the grilling
began he talked Willingly and answer
ed all questions. Since the grilling
started he is reported to have become
sullen and silent
Rumor has it today that while rns
police outwardly claim to still believe
Nolan was the bandit, they are N
truth so sure he had only some minor
hand if any in the plot, that they have
promised that he vii be let off with
light punishment if he aids them IN
bringing the real hold-up man to JUS
tice.

COTTON TILLERS
ARE TURNING Up
SUMTER'S SOIL
BUSY IN CROP PREPARATION
Prospect is Better Than Last
Season

Farmers about Americas and
throughout this much blessed section OF
the modern Egypt-the land of corn
and of plenty, are busy now in crop
preparation, and the man at the steer
ing wheel of the automobile pillow is
more in evidence than is the farm ar
with the joy wagon The fact is ev!-
denced upon every hand that more
work-a great deal more-has been
accomplished already than at this
date last January.
The preparation of the fields is more
thorough than in years past. The re-
moval of stumps permits more than
ever the operation of gang plows, pull
ed by gasoline engines, and these la
Dor savers are as much in evidence
here in Sumter county as upon the
level plains of Kansas.
Sumter county produced a crop Of
near 10000 bales last year, and, with
favorable seasons, will do as we'll this
year 1914. Sumter county also pro-
duced a crop of a half million bushels
oats last year, besides thousands of
tons hay and an ample corn crop, and
is going to make more oats and corn
and hay this year Sumter's water
melon crop alone last year brought the
growers probably $4,000
That there Will be a greater diversi-
fication of crops than ever before is
the general opinion owing to the fact
that the boil weevil is expected to
reach this section of the state within u
year or two. Heretofore the farmers
have looked forword to the coming of
the boil weevil as of some enemy in
the future but they have come to real
ize that the time of it's coming is
close at hand and they must prepare
for it well in advance.
Even if all precautions fail and the
boil weevil really gets here there is
going to be plenty of other crops AMI
though nothing. can take the place of
King Cotton" in the hearts as well as
the pockets of the average south Geor-
gia planter, at least the prospects are
that he will have enough food stuffs to
keep the wolf from the door and the
hog and hominy" viii not fail him.
All over Sumter county the farmers
are busy now preparing their land
for the crop of 1914 and the man be-
hind the pillow is in evidence on every
side. That the acreage planted is GO
ing to be a large one there is no doubt
from the quantity of land being made
ready and also the new land being
taken in.

He COULD NOT
DONATE A FLAG
Because United States Makes No Pro-

Lane Says 'NO' to Teacher.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 20.-Because
the government does not make any
provision for furnishing flags to pub
lie schools, Secretary Lane of the in
terror department, has, much to his re
greet, been forced to turn down the re-
quest of school teacher living in the
southwest for a flag for her pupils,
who have never seen the national en-
blem.
Il have pupils in my school of all
ages up to 16 years, whS have never
seen a U. S. flag" the teacher wrote
the secretary, excepting two very
small ones which I CHANGED to bring
along with me. This is a new country

might please the department to assist
us in our struggle by supplying our

ELEVENTH WARD CLUB
SIGN, SAYS FRESHMAN
DONOR "STEALS" 1T WHEN RE.
FUSED ADMISSION TO THE HALL

Baltimore, Md, Jan. 2o.-Somebody
bad cess to him-had stolen the cleo
trio sign in front of the Eleventh Ward
democratic club. 1t was froth of a
sign with letters as green as the sham
rock and the barns and back alleys of
the CITY were combed in search of t.
Hair nor side nor bulb of it could be
found.
Before the motion to buy new sign
was put at last nights meeting Michael
Redding rose heavily and announced
that he would like to direct few re-
marks at the unknown thief.
Hop to it, Mike!" said the rest Of
the crowd, and they shifted their cigars
expectantly, for Redding is there with
the plain and fancy invective.
This night he excelled his former
greatness. He exumed the ancestors
of the shameless thief. After saying
things about, them that made them
twist in their shrouds, Redding turned
his attention to the thief himself When
he got through the dictionary was on
its back and speechless. He said that
the man who stole that sign would
glory in the theft of a widows pig.
And what is worse, he finished in
cloud of birthstone, the pahlpeen that
TUX it is no democrat-so he ANTI"
Whereupon Pat Sherry, a prominent
and devout member of the club, rose.
His face was red and he held up
hand.
"Sthop!" said he "Sthop, Mike Ye
go too far. Twas I who TUX the sign
Sherry had given the club its sign
and they wouldn't believe him until he
had explained. This is how it hap
pened:
Pat passed down the street one even
ing and saw by the fact that his do
nation was sending out it's rays that
something was doing there that night.
So he went home and put on his red
tie and his painful patent leather shoes
and returned to the club. Pat was
stopped at the door by a large Swede,
who said he couldn't enter because he
had no invitation. In revenge Sherry
had got out his stepladded, takes donv
the sign he had given the thankless
club and stored it in his garnet.
When the club recovered from its
surprise, abject apologies were made
and accepted. Sherry promised to re-
turn the sign. And just to show that
his heart was correctly situated he's
going to paint the sign first.

1t would be idle to deny the far
reaching effects the prodigious Crap
pie would have on the United States.
1t would set our trade topsy-turvy for
a time. But our railroads would still
do business, our factories run, our
mines be worked. our farms be titled.
This nation, in fact, would be the
only great one left productive, the
only great civilized entity which
would continue to produce the things
that mankind must have. The quasi
monopoly which this would give us
would become apparent gradually
during the war, and the full fruits of
it would be gathered directly after
the war. when most of the civilized
world would be clamOring for the
things which we and we only would
possess. In the long run the incon-
venicnces to which the United States
would have been subjected would be
cOunterbalanced.

Americas Opportunity.

This is the American opportunity
to re-establish it's merchant marine,
not by the futile, faulty method of
subsidy but by meeting an opportun-
ity. The American register invites
the carriers. Make it possible by
reasonable conditions for them to tax.
the American flag and raise it. Make
it possible for American money to
take over foreign built ships and MAKE
them American ships.
Vessels cannot be built to meet this
emergency, but they can be bought
and they ca nbe accepted as seekers
of place in the American merchant
marine. It's our great opportunity.
The grains of America will be needed
in the markets of Europe and the YES
sells to carry them are not numerous.
S. Soon the nations will declare what
Is contraband and what is not. When
the declarations have been made our
exporters will know precisely whittier
and what they may and may not with
safety ship. They will need ships,
and ships are to be had if the .Ameri-
can restrictions as to registry be lib
eralized
It's our opportunity to put the flag
back on the sea and keep it there.
What we lost in war we may gain in
war.
