CONSERVE THE WOMAN-POWER

The following letter has been sent
out from State Suffrage headquarters
to the chambers of commerce in the
citeis and towns of South Carolina.
All suffragists have aroused as one
woman to oqer their service to their
country in this war emergency. The
special services offered by them are
the increase and conservation of the
food supply, and the registration of
women workers. The conservation of
these same women is one of their most
urgent considerations.
In England and. France. in all al
lied countries, the women offered their
services without condition. In all,
their governments acknowledge that
without the women the war could not
be carried on. But woman's service
is one of the resources of the coun-

Union, S. G.
Sir:
We were visited yesterday afternoon
about d o'clock with a severe hail
storm and wind. The hail lasted only
about Is minutes but was very heavy,
doing considerable damage to wheat
and fruit; at least half of the fruit is
gone, and wheat heads have the ap-
pearance of brush. Cotton that had
been chopped out is in bad shape;
there was not a good stand anyway.
1t is very fortunate that it came this
early for if it had been July 22nd in
stead of May we would have had very
little left in way of growing crops.
There was another hail later but did
little damage here; the hail stones that
fell from the first cloud were as large
as hen eggs, and on down to the size
of buck shot, and about $3.50 o'clock
we had tremendous rain, which
washed the land badly. I am sending
a sample of peaches that you may see
how bad the fruit is hurt.
I am not writing this article for
publication specially, but as an item of
news you can speak about. The hail
beat some paper roofing so it is worth
less; also knocked out quite a number
of window lights. H. B. Murphy.

The juice of two fresh lemons strain
ed into bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes whole
quarter pint of the most remarkable
lemon skin beautified at about the
cost one must pay for small jar of
the ordinary cold creams. Care should
be taken to strain the lemon juice
through fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh

lemon juice is used. to bleach and re-
move such blemishes as freckles, sal
lowness and tan and is the ideal skin
softened, whitener and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and

try and should not be wasted. The
nations have found out by sad expert
ence that to accept woman's self-sac-
rificing service in the matter of long
work hours and irregularity of living
means reducing the women's efficiency
and running their health.
After over years sacrifice of the
health and lives of their women, tn,
nations have reduced the normal
living of the women, as far as possible.
AS president of the State Suffrage
league, / wish to beg the business
men of this State to take warning from
the experience of their warning coun-
tries, and to retain for their women
workers the usual work hours and the
usual conditions of life in speeding
up work to meet this war crisis.
The men are being called to the
camps, many women will have to bear
the double burden of homekeeper and
family supporter. I beg, in addition,
that the business men of South Caro-
lima will not discriminate against
women on account of their sex and
will not lower industrial standards by
paying women lower wages than they
are accustomed to pay men for the
same work.
Business men all over the country
have promised their cooperation in
conserving the woman-power of the
nation. May we not hope that the
men of South Carolina will do the
same for the women workers of their
State?

ATLANTA READY TO BUILD
ANEW AFTER BIG FIRE

Atlanta, May 22.-With relief work
under way and $4,000 subscribed for
immediate aid to the sufferers from
yesterdays $3,500,OOO fire, predictions
were made tonight that work of re-
building the burned section extending
through the northeastern section of
the city would begin in a week.
Telephone linemen went through
the devastated district today, cutting
away wires that might endanger lives,
while the street car company began to
clear its wires anr city wagons began
to move the rubbish from the streets.
With the clearing of the streets,
which made good progress in the out
skirts of the burned area, relief organ
izations were busy untangling the hu-
man maze. All during the day fami-
lies who had become separated were
brought together through the work
of the local Red Cross, and furniture
was hauled away from vacant lots and
from sidewalks around the fire lines.
A hail storm and heavy rain in the
afternoon caught much of the house
hold effects still unsheltered, and add
ed several thousands of dollars to the
loss.
Many Builings Burned.
The flames destroyed 1868 build
ings, according to calculations of real
estate and insurance men who went
over the ground today. Most of the
structures were homes, ranging from
lowly negro cabins to substantial res
licences. Apartment houses, several
churches and a number of retail stores
were destroyed. 1t was impossible,
however, to estimate the number of
people who had been burned out, as
many did not apply for relief at Red
Cross headquarters, either providing
for themselves or being cared for by
private individuals.
Over 10000 Homeless.
Estimates today were that from 1O,-
900 to $4,000 persons were homeless as
result of the fire yesterday and last
night that swept through approximate
ly seventy-five blocks of residence
property, ranging from negro shacks
to homes of influential citizens in the
northeastern section of the city.

Carl Hanson and George Fitch re-
turned to Redondo Beach, CAL. from
fishing trip bringing with them
large black cat which they found
riding an empty keg miles out at sea.
The feline was famished and had un-
doubtedly weathered the fierce storm
when the wind blew at the rate of so
miles an hour. 1t had tenaciously
clung to the keg during the gale. On
brass plate attached to a leather
collar around the animals neck was
the word "Utanica," presumably the
name of the boat upon which the cat
was mascot.

Professors, E. O. Sellers, to the
international Y. M. c. A. for
evangelistic service in the English
Camps. He gave some time last
year to the Canadian camps.
The Institute is desirons of living
up to its Pseudonym of "The
West Point of Christian Service, {"
by being prepared for any de-
mapd on its student body for
workers in the United States
camps in the evangelistic field,
or through the channel of the
Red Cross or in other ways.
Some of its graduates at the close
of the last term were called into
Christian works in the army and
others are expecting service as
chaplains in the navy. The
training is entirely free for
Christian men and women of any
state, nation, or denomination

Crimes against humanity are

The German Kaiser, with all his
bestial cruelty is no greater sin

gang that keeps the race degrad-

the manufacturers of liquid

the latest attempts to put a ball

OF prohibition isn't involved at

a moral question as a cloak to
cover cowardly attack on the

the shield behind which lurk
some of the most disreputable
