The Country Smiles.

Nj Wilson smiles when Syracuse
Is mentioned. Well everybody with
sense ii humor is smiling Il has
,een many wears since so d1vert'ns
farce comedy was staged, NJ tunes
nc lavs down his newspaper and
tonders ii il can be true that such a
rama is being enacted
Md yet il IS to be doubted II any
nody is surprised at the revelations.
Politics is politics: and certain gen
cral rules govern the game. Some
OF the practices arc deplored. and
men have labored TO eliminate them
and put the game upon higher
plane. But still the game goes on
very much in the old way
Mr.. Roosevelt has trained with
both reformers and bosses. A man
OF swift mental processes. he is quick
to appraise both man and meas
ure. His nature is intense; his in
dustry tireless. He always wants to
win, and has won repeatedly.
He has been a reformer. and with
the reformers has stood; boss, and
with the bosses stood. In both char
acters he has been a leader. He is
what is called "a born leader" He
has done some excellent things both
as reformer and as a boss.
Many admirers OF Mr.. Roosevelt
have deeply deplored his change OF
purpose respecting the presidency.
. They have pointed out how strong
he would have been as an adviser OF
his party. contented with the great
honors it had bestowed upon him, and
seeking to repay in part by inter
esting himself in its welfare in his
retirement, and giving it the benefit
OF judgment free from personal
ambition.
He could not have played the part.
He was too young and still too eager
10 be a sage. He doubtless meant
what he said the night he had that
hne moment and announced that he
would not again ask for honors. At
that moment he did not know him
SELF, No more did the country, which
accepted his statement, know him.
Out of Office and his power gone, he
became impatient, and fell an easy
victim to those who in Turing him
back into the arena had their own
ends in view.
Yielding, he wanted others to
yield; and to those who refused he
gave the rough hand. Men with
whom he had worked in bonds of
closest friendship were posted as un-
desirable citizens. He who had been
the boss of bosses-the boss
famed out as the enemy of bosses
and bossism, and consigned them
Tor publication-to perdition.
But he overdid the thing; and that
is why the show at Syracuse is con-
tributing to the gayety, and some
what to the instruction. of the ma
ton.

THE USE OF SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR

Soap should be used very sparing-
ly, if at all, if you want to keep your
hair looking it's best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsif1ed cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and better than soap or
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough

water and rub it in. 1t makes an

which rinses out easily. removing
every particle of dust dirt. dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly and it leaves the
scalp soft and the hair fine and
silky, bright. lustrous. fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoandt oil
at any pharmacy. and few ounces
will supply every member Of the
family for months.

DIVORCE SUIT TIES
UP NEAT FORTUNE

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct "A 10000
fortune is tied up by the divorce pro
ceedings of Mrs. Annie Mae Cochran
Patton, a member of the widely known
Cochran family of Rome, against Har
ry E. Patton, lately manager of a 10
cal skating rink.
Mrs. Patton charges that her hus-
band neglected her so shamefully,
leaving her at boarding house with
her board bill unpaid, that she was
compelled to become trained nurse
to earn money to pay herself out.
The fortune is the estate left by
Patton's mother, and by an order of
the court just issued, it cannot be
touched by him until the courts have
passed on the question of how much
alimony, if any, he must pay his
wife.

no office of any kind and has not re
ceived a sent from anybody for any
thing he has done for prohibition.

GOING TO Be WAR NURSE

COLUMBIA, Mo-, Oct. 2.-Off to the

the soldiers back to health and
strength, Miss Resale Howell, of At
lanta, Ga, who has been visiting Miss
Emily Guitar, departed Saturday for
the east, where she will visit before
sailing for Europe, Miss Howell is
petite and vivacious, but filled with ar
dor and enthusiasm regarding her
mission in the Red Cross hospitals in

visit to Europe, for it was while she
was in London in 1909 that she be-
came acquainted with Miss Emily Gut

were spending some months in Lon

time and was continued, and later Miss
Howell and Miss Guitar went around
the world together in 1928.
Miss Howell is a sister of Clark

ture. 1t would seem that if these diff
ferent institutions are able to work to-
gether for the benefit of our farming
conditions that every farmer and bus
mess man in Sumter and the Third
Congressional District would find it
to their advantage to at least lend d
willing spirit.
Mr.. Oliver has had experience and
observation of boil weevil conditions,
having spent part of two summers il
Mississippi and ouisiana seeing cor
ditions. He will be able to advise
with Us as to the best methods to pur-
sue. He will also begin at once to
organize the boys and girls of the
county for the club work another year
There will be corn club, pig club and
it is hoped that arrangements can be
made to have a canning club. But he
informs us that he will have a short
article each week and so he will tell
US more later.
