that the types changed al over the

Ia the chronological division in the
new bsildtng there Is an instructive
exhibit Of swords and cutlery which
forms part Of the George Kennan col
lection, and includes Turkish and Ara
btan yataghans, two Russian swords,
a Scotch dirk, a crusaders sword, and
a sample Of two-handed weapon Dat
ed ITO. In the Mason family coleo-
ton. loaned to the museum by Mrs.
Julian James, there are several Amer
Loan swords, bayonets and cutiasses'

Notice..

It is against the law of this State for
any person to plough or drag ploughs
upon the public highways, or in any
manner to obstruct the bitches and
drains made by the road authorities.
1t is also against the law in Clarendon
County for any person to cut any ditch
across any of the public highways
without first obtaining a written permit
from the County Board OF Commission
ers. All persons are hereby cautioned
against the violation of any OF these
laws. For the past two years I have
warned the people of the County, but
have not prosecuted anyone. However,
7 have instructed the Rural policemen,
and all others in authority, to rigidly
enforce the law, and all farmers are re-
quested to cooperate with me in en-
forcing these regulations, as by so do
ing they will aid in keeping roads in
better condition, and possibly save
themselves trouble and expense by see
ing that their ploughmen do not OBJ
struct the drains and bitches and drag
their ploughs upon the public high
ways of the County.
