REJECTS FLATTERiNG
STAGE OFFER

Orrin Johnson, now fulfilling a
special engagement at the Fine Arts
Triangle studio, rejected flattering
offer, made him by prominent New
York theatrical manager, to be star
red in Broadway production. Mr..
Johnson prefers film acting to the
stage and his intentions are to re-
main In screendom for while. He
makes his Triangle debut In the Fine
Arts production, THE Penitentes,"
an unusual play, which deals with a
religious body OF fanatics bearing the
same name. Mr.. Johnson is now at
work on his second Fine Arts pic
ture, The Price of Power, an excep-
tional dramatic story. In both of
his plays Orrin johnson has worked
under the direction Of Jack Conway,
newcomer In the producing field,
Who is very promising. He is max.
ing an effort to arrange for mis- per.
sonal appearance in New York to
witness the opening Of his FIRST play
The Penitentes, at the Knickerbocker
Theater. Orrin Johnson Is very
much enthused with screen work and
is considered at the Fine Arts studio
the ideal type of film actor.

PURCHASING PUBLIC
SUPPLIES

New York City's experience in buy
ing large part of its public supplies
through a single purchasing agent
system is attracting attention. BY
concentrating the buying of 20 de-
partrnents in one bureau, savings Of
10 to 40 per cent were made.
The administrative conditions Of
smaller places must of course be
quite different Yet human nature Is
about the same everywhere. Public
money comes easily and goes quick
ly. The public belief in the exist
ence of graft is too apt to- be well
based. The honest man, too sincere
to take precautions, is suspected,
while the willy rogue is trusted. The
tax payer everywhere should watch
public officials more closely, and seek
for better business methods In hand
ling public funds.
II is very simple matter to hand

vor in buying supplies. Ordinary
precautions being used, the chance Of
detection is trifling The company
making the sale has always line of
talk with which the crooked buyer
can silence those who demand to be
shown. The contract may cost the
city no more money. But an infer
Tor article has been put over.
Agents of supply companies swarm
like flies about buyers for public de-
partments. 1t is a post OF peculiar
responsibility and insidious tempta-
ton, in which many once honest
men succumb to the chance of easy
money Even the school text book

Systematic methods of purchasing
make savings. 1t is no politicians

ence, knowledge OF prices a gift fol
judging markets and human nature
But even more necessary than gooC

The American people can't stand

The serving of food in hotels and
restaurants is just as useful and

for a good memory and courteous

The tipping system takes the work
ers at an ancient and honorable craft

THE WARS EFFECT
ON IMMIGRATION

In conclusion 1t seems to me prob

proportions for many years II the
countries of Europe meet the situa-
ton by organizing their finances and
administrations to rehabilitate indus
try and agriculture. There will be
little emigration from Germany.
France and Belgium under any cir
cumstances, for these countries have
contributed but little to our estnic
composite in recent years. There
may in fact be reversal of the tide.
Population may flow from tae Unit
ed States to Europe and in any event
there Is likely to be such a change IN
the position of labor that wages Will
rise not only in Europe but in the
United States as we'll. Wages may
rise so rapidly and to such a point as
to revolutionize not only the indus

Military Training
for American
School Boys

There is sufficient reason other
than the military training given for
the system in vogue at the Sumter
schools. Necessarily the training re
ceived by the boys makes for bodily
development. The exercise of If
teen minutes daily drill gives an op
portunity to every boy to work him
self gradually into athletic trim
many Of the boys being too frail at
the outset to indulge in any violent
exercise. However a natural out.
growth of the military feature has
been the tendency toward physical
exercise OF beneficial nature on
the part Of the boys. The record
of the Sumter schools in state ath-
letic circles stands high, two foot
ball championships for high schools
having been won and high standing
in track ath 'etics being maintained.
Military training has been strongly
urged for college students, especially
those who do not make the football
or baseball team. The most import
ant development, however, to the
boys in the military is not physical
but mental. The concentration re-
quired in going through the manual
of arms and the intricate drill form
atoms is a mental stimulant to- the
growing youth
Many of the boys in the battalion
are twelve, thirteen, fourteen and
fifteen years OF age, in addition to
the older ones ranging up to nineteen
years of age. AS a matter of eau
ton. therefore, no ammunition is
used in, the drills. The companies
are? instructed, however, in the meth
cd of handling a gun; in fact all tae
mechanism, and military tactics OF
firing are gone through with. except
the actual placing of ammunition In
the guns. AS the boys grow Older
they get their target practice in 9th
err ways, as most of them hunt, and
later, many of them join the loca
militia.

Unless pork is known to have been
subjected to refrigeration as above
mentioned, 1t should be thoroughly
cooked. The microscopic examina-
ton Of pork for the detection of tri-
chinae has been abandoned, as the
usual methods have proved ineffic-
lent.
In this connection 1t Is interesting
to note that more swine were slaugh-
tered in the past year in establish
ments under Federal inspection than
ever before. A total of 33,247,95S,
were inspected at the time of slaugh-
ter, and approximately 35,900,0OO

Guarding the

Approximately go Per Cent Of AMI
mails Are Now Slaughtered Under

More than 5s,0O0,OOO meat animals
were slaughtered in establishments
under Federal inspection during the
fiscal year ending June 80 1915.
Since approximately from So to so
per cent of the animals killed in the
country are slaughtered in establish
ments where Federal inspection is
maintained, It appears that about
10O,0O0,OOO meat animals are now be-
ing killed each year in the United
States.

ed as unfit for human use and 644,6SS

the animals inspected were condemn

figures include only cattle. calves,
sheep, goats, and swine.
tuberculosis was the chief cause
Of the COMBINATIONS. More than
1884 carcasses of cattle and $4,000
carcasses of swine were entirely re-
jected on account OF this disease. and
in addition parts Of $4,000 cattle and
100000 swine. Hog cholera was re-
sponsible for the next largest loss,
nearly 100000 swine being condemn
ed, entirely on this account.
The annual appropriation for the
Federal meat inspection service is
now about s3,375,O0O, so that the cost
to the people would be between 5 and
cents per animal II the service was
confined entirely to tho inspection of
the animals and carcasses. In add.
ton, however, great quantities Of the
meat and products are reinspected
In this item there was a very con
siderable increase during the last
fiscal year, the reinspection resulting
in the condemnation of total OF
nearly 100000 pounds of products
of one kind or another. Further
more 245.000.00O pounds of imported
meat or meat products were inspect
ed and more than 100000 pounds
condemned or refused entry.

Apropos of the large number of soldiers re

Let us see how that figures out:
The total population of the earth is placed
lat 1,732, GOO, 900. Nearly % per cent of the
total population is engaged in the present war
The population Of the Allied nations at war is
as follows: Great Britain, $4,000 900; France,

NOT A PARTY ISSUE.

President Wilson's plan to ask Republican
as well as Democratic support for the military
defense program is an indication of the grow
ing tendency to, break party lines in the dis
cussion of vital legislation in this country
Even that bulwark of the parties the tariff
question, will ultimately be taken from the
realm of partisan control, and schedule making
put in the hands of a non-partisan tariff board,
made up of experts. The high -protectionists
and the tariff for-revenue -only chaps will still
continue their unending debate, but the facts
will be furnished by scientifically equipped
men.
There is no reason why the matter Of mill
tary defense should be made party issue.
Some Republicans are pacifsts, against a
larger army and navy than Uncle Sam has at
present; some Democrats are keen for military
and naval expansion; and each party has plenty
of men on both sides of the defense question.
No tradition dating from those we'll known
oaks in jackson, Michigan, under which the
Republican party was born, calls upon the G.

Jefiersonian dictum bids the Bourb0ns be

parties on this matter of defense would be
purely artificial. Perhaps year or two of
discussion will crystaIlize the party positions

but none has yet appeared. And we are m
