There is one thing to the credit OF
the commission. It is said Madame
Jofre is very fond of country ham
and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson has sent
over to Virginia and bought an ex-
traordinarily fine country ham and
presented it to Joffre to be taken back
to France with him. She displays
good taste in the matter Of something
good to eat. There is nothing better
than good country ham and the South
Carolina Newberry variety can not be
excelled even by the Virginia ham.

"The establishment of a coopera-
tive cannery in this city is the first
essential step towards the conserva-
ton Of the food crops to be raised in
the county this summer" This is
what the Spartanburg Herald says
and it is true of Spartanburg and
also equally true Of Newberry. 1t
is what we have been saying for the
past several weeks and especially
since this campaign Of growing food
stuffs has been on. 1t is. the busi-
ness mans part of the work to pro-
vide the things for the preserving
of the crop after it has been grown
and it would very materially encour-
age the farmer to grow more il he
knew that he could have it preserved
and that he could find market for
it after he grows 1t.
There are several farmers in the
county who are prepared to do their
own canning and who for several
years have been doing lot of can
ming but there are a lot others who
are not prepared to do it and there
are many who could and would grow
smaller quantities and surplus if
they were assured that they could
have the canning done at reason
able cost 1t is~a very important
part of the preparedness campaign.
We read somewhere that on former
occasions that the people would not
buy the home raised vegetables and
other canned goods that were put ui
at home and that some merchant
bought lot and sent them off to Bal
timore or some other place and the
labels were changed and then ship
ped back and he had no trouble in
disposing Of them at a higher price
# all that we are told about the
shortage of food stuffs is true or es-
en- the half there will be no trouble
to sell all we can grow and put up.

HOW UNBELlEVER SAW LIGHT
and Fragrance Of Flowers in
Church.

1 once heard story about a man
who was confirmed unbeliever. His
wife, an earnest Christian. tried 10
get him to attend church services. but
he stubbornly refused to enter re.
ligious meeting of any kind. And so
it went for many years. until one
Easter morning his wife with tears
in her eyes begged him TO go TO church
with her.
Robert" she said. Il know that you
do not believe-in anything. l know
that you do not want TO believe in
anything. But won't you come 10
church this morning-just TO give me
pleasure?'
And the man promised TO GO: prom
ised reluctantly, and though he was
an unbeliever he did not break prom.
Uses, so he went.
The church was very beautiful than
Easter morning. The air was filled
with the perfume of many flowers. and
ferns and palms nodded cheerily TO
each other. A great bouquet of lilies
bloomed fragrantly at the mans very
elbow, and a jar of golden-hearted
daisies smiled up at him. Everywhere
he looked there were flowers: simple
field flowers. and rarer. cultivated
ones. And the man, leaning back in
his seat, felt great peace steal over
him.
All through the service he sat there
quiet. And at the closing HYMN he
took his wife's arm, and guided her
gently down the flower-decorated
aisle. When they were walking home,
alone, under the brightness of the
springtime sky, he suddenly spoke:
"My dear" he said. "this Easter
morning has done great thing for
me. l have seen the light believe :"
His wife cried out in joy, what
was it that made you believer" she
questioned; twas it the music, or the
sermon, orr"
at was the flowers" said the man
softly. when 1 saw them, all massed
together in their beauty and purity
and fragrance, l suddenly knew that
only great and wonderful God could
have made acknowledgement Il. Sang
