SOUTH CAROLINA PREPARES.

The state was thrilled the other da!
when State Entomologist E. Lee
Worsham made the announcement il
Americas, that the boil weevil was on
" forty miles from the Savannah
river, having progressed as far cas-
as Evans county. A line of advance
has been drawn for the pest from
Newton county in north Georgia, to-
wards the south through Jasper, Put
nam and Washington counties, tc
Evans.
The boil weevil has about a month
to keep up its pace before the winter
season sets in, which is said to serious
" deter his movements. By the early
part of next year Georgia will be COW
cred from river to river, and mountain
to shore. 1t will be a statewide bat
tie, instead of fight first waged in
southwest Georgia.
South Carolina is preparing for the
pest. They have made it statewide
movement, which is one step better
than Georgia has ever done. Except
for the work of the entomology board;
the state college of agriculture, and
the federal government, working in
certain sections, there has been ten
dency to Let John do it."
Governor Manning, of South Caro-
lima, is pointing the way, and the fol-
lowing news dispatch tells of his ex-
cursion:
Gov. Manning, of South Carolina,
with party which included besides
eaveral representatives of the depart
ment of agriculture, prominent bust
ness men, educators and agricultural
experts of South Carolina, left here
late today for Baton Rouge, to con-
tinue the inspection they started in
New Orleans today of cotton growing,
marketing and storage, and the meth
DDS used in Louisiana to fight the boil
weevil. At Baton Rouge the members
of the party will be entertained to-
morrow by commercial organizations,
and later will be taken to visit cotton
plantations and livestock farms.

Jewish Philosophy a.. /
Subject Of Lecture

Dr.. Schmarja Levin, former mem
: Der Of the Russian Duma, and Zion
ist leader, addressed large audience
at the Russian synagogue last eve
ming on the Philosophy of Judaism"
Jewish philosophy, he said, was based
on human nature. 1t was collective
instead Of being individual and its
foundation was laid on the old saying
Of "love thy neighbor as myself"
He drew parallel between cosmo-
politanism and internationalism The
former was the ideal OF country, he
said, but the latter was the ideal of
the world.
What is it that has kept the Jew
ish people together for 1000 years."
he asked. ut is not because they
are physically strong. 1t is not be-
cause they are afforded protection.
The only thing that has kept them to-
gether is their philosophy, their re-
ligion and their belief in the Old
Testament" 4
