 With considerable pride they point to the fact that the percentage of unem- ployed among organized workers, which during the second month of the war was PA has now decreased to 8. They told me how many industrial es- tablishments during the war had changed their entire production in order to accord with their present needs, working now partly to make up for stopped imports of luxuries, partly to support army and navy.
 One thing they all maintained-that the war would mean an enormous moral gain to Germany which would greatly benefit social evolution. Many a mar row prejudice has already been crushed and broken by the war
 Germans Are United
 tNo living being knows" writes a chief mouthpiece of socialist opinion, If we are now at the middle of the war, ii we are approaching its end. or if we have years of war ahead of us One thing only we know-that we shall and must endure, that no superiority of numbers or arms, no attempts at starv- ing us into surrender, shall crush us We have this feeling not only because we have full confidence in the strength of our army, Its organization, training and discipline. but first of all in the pa- trictism which unites all Germans with out exception.
 Let war last a month or years, it will only weld the people together and pro- mote the strength of the nation in a manner that will surprise the world. All enemies may as well now give up the hope that Germany will finally succumb in the struggle
 Later the article deals with conditions after the war, and says:
 "Of course we shall then as before never be able to avoid strikes and lockouts, but we dare hope that they will be more cas- fly and justly settle1''

not until September IL, or about
five months after the beginning of
the restricted diet, the skin symp-
toms so charactistic of pellagra be-
gan to develop. These symptoms
are considered as typical, every pre-
caution being taken to make sure
that they were not caused by any
other disease. The convlcts upon
whom the experiment was being
made, as we'll as twenty other con-
victs who were selected as controls,
were kept under continuous medical
surveillance. No cases of pellagra
developed in camp excepting among
those men who were on the restrict
ed liet. The experimenters have
therefore drawn the conclusion that
pellagra has been caused in at least
six of the eleven volunteers as q
result of the one sided diet on which
they subsisted.

VALUE OF TAXABLE PROPERTY
Increase of S3,72S,219 over Last
Year, Says Comptroller General.

car odSS SOAaPaSoAASA
Comptroller General Sawyer an
nounced Monday that he had receiv-
ed the abstracts of the duplicates
from all the county Auditors.
The total increase in the taxable
value Of property for the whole
State amounts to S3,728,219. In a
number of counties the total taxable
property is slightly less than last
year, and the Comptroller General
states this is due to the fact that for
number of years there have been
tax executions for which no settle
ment was made by the county offic-
ers, and they have been cleared up
this year, and most of the property
which heretofore has been carried
on the Auditors and Treasurer's
duplicates as double entries and er-
rors have been eliminated.
The report shows that in 1914 the
property valuation in Williamsburg
county was s5,06l,423 and in 1915,
s4,962,420. a decrease of S99,OO3.

GREECE NOW STANDS
n ALOOF FROM ALLIES
Rejects British Offer of Concessions
in Return For Military
Support.

London, Oct. 23.-Greece has de-
clined for the present the. allies offer
of Cypress and other concessions, ter
ritorial and financial, for her adher-
ence to the Serbo-Greek treaty of al
lance, which would mean her military
aid in meeting Bulgarian and Austro-
German attacks against her former,
ally.
Greece's reply to the offer, which
reached the foreign. Office today, is
lengthy and while it has not been
made public there is reason to believe
rhe Hellenic kingdom bases its de-
cision on the ground that the Anglo
French force landed at Saloniki, in
the Greek governments opinion, is not
strong enough for it's task.
Tie refusal of the allies offer was

MAY OPEN SCHOOL IN
EVERY MILL VILLAGE
ONLY MONEY IS NEEDED SAYS
SUPERVISOR.
George D. Brown Describes Progress
OF New Department-Visits
Many Communities.
i he State.

liz DlOlC
George D. Brown, State supervisor
of mill schools in South Carolina,
says it would be no difficult task to
organize a night school for adults in
every mill village in South Carolina
& sufficient funds were available. Mr..
Brown has visited the greater portion
Of the mill schools in the State, and
in every community he has been met
with a ready response to his efforts to
pro,ide more effective school facilities.
The greatest obstacle is lack of
sufficient funds" Mr.. Brown said.
The people all manifest sympathetic
attitude toward the work and wish to
acquire an education, where early op-
portunities were denied Many night
schools are being organized; several
districts have voted a special tax;
manual training and domestic science
courses introduced; Libraries provided
and a new school building erected for
Pickens. If We had sufficient funds it
would be possible to introduce these
features into every mill village in the
State"
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-10-26
Domestic Science.

Consolidation is also being tried out
in Pendleton. One hundred and fifty
pupils have been enrolled in the city
public school, one-third Of which num-
Der come from the mill village. "The
children are all delighted with the
change and under the management OF
a thoroughly capable superintendent
are making excellent progress" Mr:
Brown commented. In this school
manual training and domestic science
courses have been introduced and a
kindergarten department organized.
From the Monaghan mills in Seneca
the sixth and seventh grades have
been transferred to the city schools.
The transfer of the fifth grade is also
contemplated.
The general plan pursued by the su-
perintendent is to consolidate the
schools where this can be done vita
feasibility, and to introduce as much
practical work and manual training
and domestic science courses as can be
provided. Mr.. Brown related the story
of one of the Marion mill village boys
constructing a table recently in the
manual training department. The act
ual cost of the table was placed at Is
cents. The table was disposed of at
$3.50.
