Gov. Hunt breaches
Politics in Church

The staid church-going peo-
pie of Snowflake were given an
unusual change at the religious
service Sunday. Gov. Hunt and
Sec. Chas. r. Osburn of the
Board of Control happened in
town about church time on a
hurried tour thru the country
and stopped to attend t h e
Mormon" services.
The bishop kindly extended
them the privilege of addressing
the congregation which h e y
gladly accepted. The governor
greeted the audience in his usual
matter of fact manner and i'm
mediately entered upon a de-
fense of his record as the chief
executive of the state without
first painting a word picture of
the golden stair leading heaven
ward or even attempting a re-
cital of the Lords prayer for
the worshipful assemblage.
The people of our little city
appreciated the short visit of
the executive but as a public
speaker the governor is not flu
ent and appears awkward in the
pulpit or even upon the platform.
He invariably selects a heavy
subject for a text, the policy of
his administration, and is handi-
capped by having to explain it's
vagaries.
Mr.. Osburn is a ready speaker
and in his remarks made a lucid
defense of the democratic ad-
ministration although claiming
to be republican. 1t was evi-
dent that by reason of his ap-
pointment to office by the gov
ernor many of the democratic
ideas of government have taken
root in his mind and are fast be-
coming the theme of his heart.
At the close of church the dis
tinguished visitors hurriedIy left
for Holbrook to catch the even
ing train for Phoenix.

Delaney, 27 years old, of South Am
boy, N. j., left Johns Hopkins Hospi-
tai to-day considerably improved as
the result Of remarkable operation
performed upon him by Di. G. f.

Delaney was hurt in an automobile
accident year ago. His spine was
injured and paralysis followed. A
flame could be placed against his
legs or pins stuck into them without
causing him pain.
DR.. Heuer, who performed the
operation about three weeks ago,
found 1t necessary to remove a small
portion of the spinal cord, a most del
icate and dangerous procedure. The
young man Is now able to move his
toes for the first time since tho acct
dent. The members Of the Hopkins
faculty consider his progress as re-
markable and believe the improve

EXPECT a LARGER ACREAGE.
High Prices Cause Farmers to Want
Big Yield OF Cotton Next Year,
(Greenville News.)

ANcNSJ
With cotton selling around 20 cents
there seems to be spreading among
the farmers 4 cotton-growing fever
which will result in the largest acre
age in years being planted in 1917.
. AS has always been the case, high
price for the tleecy staple usually
means an increased acreage. Next
year, however, this tendency to over
plant seems stronger than ever be-
fore. Numbers of farmers while in
the city have expressed the opinion
that the area planted next year will
be the largest in many years. This
seems to be the concensus of opinions
not only among those who reside in
Greenville county, but from all over
the Piedmont section as well.
Many state that preparations are
already going forward for large
cotton crop. The attention hereto
fore devoted to grain seems now to
be taken up in making reservations
for next years cotton crop. In some
instances, it is said, SO much space
will be given over to the culture of
cotton that little will be left for corn,
truck and vegetables
Whether developments in regard
to the boil weevil invasion will af-
feet this increased acreage remains
to be seen. Most of the farmers in
the Piedmont seem inclined to con-
slider the weevil as menace only to
the farmers Of the lower section of
the State. Another thing which may
affect the amount of cotton planted,
say number who are familiar with
the situation, Is the scarcity that ex-
lists in regard to certain brands OF
fertilizers and the difficulty in get
ting the same.
