There are a good many people who
tenaciOuSly hold to the belief that the
price of cotton goods is necessarily af-
fected by the price of raw cotton. The
proposition looks reasonable at first
blush, but it is not true. Local mer-
chants will advise you that nOtwith-
standing the low price at which the
mills would buy raw cotton just now.
there has been no decline in the price
at which piece goods are being offered
one answer to that is that the goods
were manufactured from high priced
raw cotton, and that they have to be
sold on that basis Rats, The argu-
ment is not worth answering, especial
ally in view Of the fact that many of
the mills have orders ahead for all the
goods they can turn out during the
next three or six months, which orders
were taken on a basis of II cents cot
ton. But that is not all by any means
Where domestic mills are unable to
spin more than Une-third of the crop
in sight and where conditions suggest
that there will he no immediate mar
ket for the remainder of the crop, it is
natural that the domestic mills should
figure on buying their supplies at the
lowest possible figure. We did not say

1t is not important whether Senator
McLaurin is politically dead" or not
If he is agricuturally or commercially
alive-if he is interested in the busi-
ness prosperity of the State-that is the
important thing. There are live" poll
ticians enough. What the state needs
most is live business men. Along that
line Senator McLaurin can do good
work for the state. He is a young man.
comparatively he is intelligent and
progressive. In our opinion Senator
MCLaurin is in way to do more Tor
the state now than if he had run for
governor, even though he might have
been elected.-Newberry Observer.
Bravely and truly spoken. OF all the
public men we have ever known, there
are none that we consider ADLER or
more sincerely patriotic than Senator
John L. McIaurin. There is nothing
small and narrow about him, and he
never seeks to accomplish anything by
such means. Had he been willing to
betray his people for his own selfish
ends, he would never have left the Unit
ed States senate: but there is no office
or other consideration by which he
could be induced to do anything
of the kind. He knows politics
and is politician; but is not willing to
resort to the same methods of the class
of statesmen" who would thwart his
purposes, merely because they know
that his success means their complete
elimination. Sometimes we wish he
really wanted to be governor, or Sena
tor; but we know that he is not capa
BILE of paying the price, and we would
not like to see him do it. The Observ-
er is right in it's opinion that Mr.. Nc
Laurin is capable of doing more now
than if he had been elected governor
Mr.. McLaurin would rather write his
warehouse bill on the statutes than tC
be governor or senator either; but the
| question is, will the politicians let him
do it? We have grave doubts about
that.

A dispatch Of Saturday, telling of
the lighting along the Aise, Aisne
and Moevre rivers related this Incl
dent: "A British infantry regiment,
upon receiving an order to advance
and take a German position. knelt
for moment in prayer. Then the
men, knowing their charge was to be
terrible I'm cost, sprang to their feet
and with fixed bayOnets clambered
out of the shelter OF the trench. In
short and rapid rushes they ad-
vanced in wide open order alter
nately lying down and then making
another dash of 5 yards. From the
German position came the thick hail
of the machine guns. The attacking
soldiers hurrahed and sang as they
pressed forward Many fell with
cries of determination on their lips.
Finally those who remained of the
regiment reached and took the Ger
man position after Il desperate hand
To hand encounter. This was only
one among many similar acts OF
courage and discipline on the part of
the PritiSh. French and Germans
alike at various points along the
line"

We agree most heartily with the at
titude of Senator Beamguard at the
two meetings Of the cotton congress
both as to the buy-a-bale movement
and the compulsory acreage reduction
movement. Senator Beamguard sees
the situation from the standpoint OF the
cotton producer, and his position al
along the line is one that will commend
itself to the good judgment and falr-
ness Of the larger number of people
And what Senator Beamguard said had
it's weight. especially in the meetings
The majority of the people on the out
side would not have endorsed the op-
posite contention even if the congress
had so expressed itself. However, we
do not want to be understood as favor
ing any attempt at compulsory reduc-
ton of the cotton acreage.

money too, maybe not that particular
500; but when we have put out $4,000
or $4,000 on cotton, we are gettin
close to the end Of our row. But with
warehouse receipts in our possession
we are all right. We are in a posi-
ton to put them up or not as circum-
stances require. But we cannot eX-
plain this to every man that comes
along. Often the amount involved Is
too small to warrant the risk Of offend
ing a man unnecessarily. However
whenever a man comes our way
planks down his warehouse receipts
and asks for a loan within a reason.

ing that he is goinP to get the money

ment to either party to the transac'

Capt. NJ. c. Willis offered resolu-

"BABY HAS KICK COMING"

Few parents realize, or even think OF
the possibility, that babies need ex-
ercise. Two of the best ways they get
it are by crying and kicking. Both are
apt to be shut off somewhat in better
class homes Kicking and squirming
are interfered with by clothing. Even
a perfectly good baby" can't be ex-
pected to break the bonds of buttons
and safety pins and make dash for
liberty.
1t is practice of one of the leading
Milwaukee children's specialists to
prescribe ten to fifteen minute ex-
ercise period for every normal baby for
whom he is medical supervisor, he di-
reefs that during this period the child
be taken in a warm room and all cloth
ing removed. The child is then placed
upon firm pad and is allowed to
squirm and kick with complete free
dom.
Another medical man who has given
great deal of study and attention to
medical gymnastics for the correction of
deformities has made it a practice TO
devote few moments each day to the
massage and physical training of his
own babies. He states that it was
matter of amazement, even to him,
how much could be done in the physi-
cal upbuiiding of child by gentle re-
sistence of the baby's movements. By
that mean a form of gentle wrestling
carried on only so far and so long as
the baby shows signs of enjoyment.
This same man is of the belief that
babies who have formed the habit of
sleeping upon their 'tummies" without
pillow are much more apt to have
straight and strong backs than are
children who sleep in any other posi-
ton. Even very young babies can turn
their heads from side to side without
assistance, so that there does not seem
to be the slightest possible danger of
healthy infants burying his face
and thus smothering.
The mattress of the baby's bed
should always be firm. In making up
the bed, as in that of a grown-up dur
ing cold weather, the body should be
insulated against cold air currents
coming up through the mattress from
below. Such insulation is best secured
by paper, felt or wooden blankets put
beneath the sleeper. This method OBJ
viates the necessity of weighing down
the occupant with load of coverings
which tire instead of warm.
