Killing Frost Needed.

A killing frost is due in this
section about this time, and, in
fact, is already a little late in
getting here. There is little dam
age that frost could do at this
time, but on the other hand it
would be a benefit by stopping
the growth of vegetation which
is only sapping the land.
The weather for the past sew
eral days has been regular Sep
tember weather, and has fast
opened the cotton bolls. Frost is
needed to kill the foliage, and in
cidentally aid the remaining bolls
to open. There is considerable
cotton in the fields at this time.
and it is being gathered very
rapidly on account of the favor
able weather.

Another Killing in Lancaster.

The third killing in Lancaster
county within the last two weeks
occurred last Wednesday night
on the Southern Power company
Massey place, when a negro Joe
brown shot and killed Jasper
reed, another negro, according
to the Lancaster News. Reed
was a mere boy, II years of age,
while his alleged slayer was 26.
The killing took place at a negro
festival in which pistols and mean
liquor took prominent parts.
Sheriff Hunter soon had Brown
behind the bars of the Lancaster
Jail. The negro claims that he
shot Reed in self defense.

Crop Condition is Way Down.

The condition of the cotton
crop for the month of October
lost 80 points from a month ago,
when it was 63.7 per cent, max
ing concition on the average date
of October,25 1913 per cent.
This unusually low condition is
the result of a season of unfavor-
able and erratic weather, al
though the DOSAGE in condition
was pot as large as that of 1913
for the same period.
Picking throughout the belt is
very much advanced, due partly
to the smallness of the crop and
favorable weather, while contin-
ued high prices for the staple
have been an incentive to hasten
gathering.

Pickpocket Got His Wad.

Mr. VIM. Hayes, of the New
Bethel section, met with a mis-
fortune at the fair in Columbia,
says the Lancaster News. Some
crook relieved him of his pocket
book and between $50 and SIS in
money. Mr.. Hayes Is certain
that the pocketbook was in his
left hand pants pocket when he
bought his ticket at the entrance
to the fair grounds. He says
there was a perfect jam of peo-
pie at the entrance, showing their
way in, and that there was a
lady just in front of him and a
large, slick looking fellow just
behind him, who was crying out,
Shove in, shove in" That i'm
mediately after getting inside he
felt for his pocketbook and it was
gone. He says he feels satisfied
that the fellow who was urging
the crowd to "shove in" is the
fellow that got his pocketbook.

BUSINESS LOOKING UP
THROUGHOUT COUNTRY

Business conditions throughout
most OF the country have i'm
proved considerably during the
last two months. according to re-
ports from federal reserve agents
made public Monday night by
the federal reserve board. AS a
whole the picture of condition is
regarded by officials as the most
favorable received by the board
in many months.
Events of the last few weeks.
the Atlanta district reports, have
not only sustained, but increased
the confidence of the general
business public throughout the
district. Commercial travellers
report merchants sales double
those of last year in the same
period.
After months of slow and halt
ing development, Richmond re-
ports, it is possible to report the
district as experiencing much inn
provement. Cotton has been the
pricipal factor. Other crops are
in-good shape and present indi-
cations are said to Justify a be-
lief that the situation will be
comfortable and promising for
three or four months at least.

ant Attorney General Dominick
in the case of Bremen VS.. the
Southern Express Co. Thomas

A larger per cent. of grain is

We believe it is because the
cotton has opened much earlier
than it has for a number of
years, allowing the farmers to

No Peace Proposal.

Reports in foreign newspapers
that Prince Won Buelow has been
entrusted with the preparation

SCHOOL Improvement
Is ORDER OF the Day

The school should stand ready
to do anything and everything
that promises development for
the community. This means the
school shall work not only for the
children assembled within it's
walls, but for all the residents
of the community. Truly, this
is school Improvement work in
the strictest sense of the term.
Every community should be
organized for such work, and
now at the beginning of the
session of 1856 is the best
time to form School Improve
ment Association in those COM
munities where such an associa-
tion does not exist: and in
communities where this associa-
ton is already organized, this is
the time to hold a meeting at
the school house and get ready
for the session. Recently there
was a splendid account in the
Rock Hill papers of just such
meeting at the Oak Ridge school
in charge of Mrs. Hetty S.
Browne. Every country school
in York county would do we'll
to observe just such Cleanup
Day as that at Oak Ridge.
There is growing demand
for better, more attractive sur
roundings at school and through
the observance of such a day
the School Improvement associa-
tion can take part in creating
stronger public sentiment in
favor of it.
This matter of Clean-Up-Day
is considered so important that
the State School Improvement
association requires that all
schools applying for prizes shall
have observed the day and sent
a report of it to the County
Superintendent of Education or
to the County Organizer of
School Improvement associations.
In addition copy of the Clean
Up-Day score card must ac-
company the application. The
first Friday in November, which
is next Friday, is Clean-Up-Day
in the schools of South Carolina.
Let us hope it will be generally
observed.
Every School Improvement as
sociation should order a copy of
Bulletin No. VII from Miss
Elizabeth Dickson, Columbia,
S. C.
The following is suggestive of
some things that may be done on
Clean-Up-Day:
l. Remove all trash and weeds
from the yard and secure a trash
box or barrel for use during the
term, placing it out of sight if
possible. Place the wood pile
back of the school house. Plant
trees and shrubbery. This will
be a good time to set out snow
ball bushes, wygelia, golden
shower, lilacs, etc. All of these
bloom in the spring.
2. See that the well and out
buildings are in good condition.
If the school has no outbuildings,
write Mr.. R. E. Lee at Clemson
College for a plan and build two.
3. Scrub the floors and dress
them with oil. Make some dust
down according to directions
given in Bulletin No. VII.
d. Cleanse the walls and cell
ing then tint them, making the
ceiling a pretty cream.
5. Wash the windows and re-
place all missing panes.
6. Cleanse the water cooler,
and if there is no sink for waste
water try to put one in. 1t will
cost only few dollars.
z. Polish the stove and ar
range an attractive wood box or
coal scuttle.
8. Secure some growing plants
for the school room. Several
rural schools have managed to
keep them all through the winter.
9. Destroy all old calendars
and remove all gaudy colored

Taxes on incomes collected un-
der the law of South Carolina in
1915 amounted to $31, 126. .97, as
against $15, ,303.31 in 1914, the
figures being made public Satur-
day by Comptroller General Saw
yer. This is over twice as much
as was collected from this source
last year.
Petitions are being circulated
in Columbia asking the governor
to order an election on the ques-
tion of recalling Mayor Griffith
of Columbia. 1t is doubted by
many if the necessary one-fifth
of signatures can be secured to
the petitions.
For the first time the United
States court was held at Aiken
the last week, the session lasting

reason that the regular session

CRESCENT BEACH LETTER.

Crescent Beach is becoming more
and more popular with Palatka peo-
: pie who enjoy surf bathing and sea
foods. The Middleton House, which
is the haven for those seeking rest
and pleasure is here and on the Ma
tanzas river. There is a grove Of
beautiful trees around the house and
the guests appreciate the shade
spending the entire day there in the
open air.
The dock leads from the park to
the channel of the river and it is
pleasant to see the large boats plying
between Jacksonville and Miami.
The mail boat comes three days a
week, when there is general gather
ing of the people at the dock.
Pleasures are numerous. The walk
to the ocean is one-quarter mile, and
all guests don their bathing suits and
walk together to the ocean, morning
and evening, for their bath in the
surf. The beach is safe and all find
surf bathing a great pleasure. Some
enjoy swimming in the river.
One cannot get lonely here. If
nothing else, game of croquet or a
| little dance on the lawn. "In the
evening by the moonlight" we sit on
the dock listening to the phonograph.
A popular diversion is walk to the
poultry farm, quarter of mile
away, where there are 1000 head of
White Leghorns, and 1000 eggs are
sometimes gathered in one day.
The guests recently enjoyed a trip

Saratoga Hotel improvements.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. H. Goldsmith OF
the Saratoga Hotel have returned
from visit of some three weeks to
their old home in Cleveland, Ohio
Their return was the occasion for
many pleasant greetings from their
hosts of patrons, who have missed
them much. The return of Mr.. and
Mrs. Goldsmith was the signal for the
Inauguration of many improvements
to the house which are already under
way. The Saratoga is one of the ho-
tells Of Florida which commercial men
generally regard more as a home than
hotel and under the management
of Mr.. and Mrs. Goldsmith it has
gained steadily in popularity and pa
tronage.
