FAN DUST

Chamberlain has everything on the ball.
 Doc Anderson surprised the crowd by landing on the pill for a two bagger. Doc is there with the stick but he wasn't expected to be able to connect with the Qneer ones "Chamby" was putting across.
 Lucas had a string in "Crab" Beem'S goat and led it around while the doughty short stop famed twice.
 Beem got even by spelling two good hits for the Federals, bagging Texas league close to the left fields hang out
 Two Federals tried to steal second and discovered that the statement that it can't be done on Hemenway was no bluff.
 J. Einnegan and Tom of the same name, the stars around second, en- gagged in bunting battle with even honors. Both were able to roll the pill within about three feet of the hardest pl ace on the diamond from which to field it.
 Coughlin at third gathered up ev- erything in reach and landed one@out of two attempts for fouls that he had no license to catch.
 Reed was there with the usual hit.
 Slim, the rooter, saw the last half of the game. Did you hear him?
 Campbell beat bunt to first by making the 90 feet in lettle less than nothing.
 Where is the money from the Fed eral tract sum, which was to be ex- pended in making Federal park a de- cent ball ground? A few less rocks and a little sand and dirt would work wonders.
 The enthusiastic fans who were pip ing off "Chamby" and his ins and outs, were nearly beaned several times by tip fouls.

The dancing flames of an early au-

underdress Is Of flame-colored satin

seasons evening gown, very low Mt the

sapphire blue net that wells the under

many bands of blue sequins that catch

sTHE LIBERTY L0AN'
SEVEN BILLION ISSUE

Washington, April 2S.-The tide Of
American gold which is to flow int"
the United States treasury to Dc
transmitted into bullets and other ae-
coutrements of war today was OH
cially designated by Secretary OF the
Treasury McAdoo as 'the liberty loan
OF 1917"
Inasmuch as the cause of the en-
tente allies and of the United States
against Germany is the cause or
liberty and the Democratic idea as op-
posed to the autocracy for which the
German emperor stands, Secretary
HcAdoo determined that the $5,00o,-
900 900 bond issue, about to- be de-
clared shall take its name from that
cause.
Secretary McAdoo in delivering an
address to a group of students rom
the Westchester County, Pa, Normal
school this afternoon, declared on be-
half of the administration that the
United States has entered the war
with Germany not in the hope OF ma
tional aggrandizement, or acquiring
further territory, but only in the cause
OF liberty. He stated that WheH the
great peace conference sits at tne
conclusion of the European war, the
Tinted States shall ask not foot OF
land nor any other advantage. the
liberty loan Of 1917" was named BY
the secretary to typify this spirit.

FARMERS SEEKING
PRODUCE MARKETS
Chairman Coker Says Business Men
Must Help in Moving States
Surplus.

David R. Coker, chairman Of the
South Carolina civic preparedness
commission, has issued the follow
ing:
Several county chairmen of the
civic preparedness movement have
asked me to assure the farmers tina,
thev would have ready market for
corn and other foodstuffs raised in
response to the appeals of the presi-
dent for increased production and l
submit the following:
"The president and secretary of ag-
ricdlture would neve1 nave called for
increased production Of foodstuffs il
there was the slightest probability
that the country would not need all
that could be produced. The farmers
in the past have usually had no dlf-
ficulty in marketing corn, oats, hay,
etc., where these products were put
up in marketable condition. Where
any difficulty has existed it has US
ually been for lack of cooperation
from the business interests in their
counties.
"I submit that it is the duty of the
merchants and bankers, directly or
through their boards of trade to as
sure the farmers of a market for
standard produce The marketing
problem has rarely been handled sat
isfactorily without the cooperation OF
the business men. They should real
ize that this is their problem and
that it is to their interest to take II
up and solve it. 1t is also their pa:
triotic duty to handle this, problem at
this juncture, and they can in No
way contribute more to the success
of the preparedness movement.
Certain towns in the State (nota-
bly, Rock Hill) have already under
taken the marketing problem with
great success, and appeal to all
boards of trade to promptly take up
the matter and assure the farmers OF
each county that the business organ
izations will handle the marketing
Droblem for them. The farmers
should realize that they must put
their produce into standard market
able shape or it can not be handled
to advantage
