 FIGHTS IN FRANCE
tContinued from Page one)

Old Mems Toy Shop.

Noah's arks, a whole fleet of them,
are off on their Christmas voyage.
Their havens are the stockings of
many children. Their port of depar-
ture is the Old Mems Toy Shop, open
ed a year ago by the New York Asso-
citation for Improving the Condition
of the Poor. Here are about sixty
men-some very old, some GONZALES
cent from illness, but not yet able to
return to their regular work-who
have been at work throughout the
year making toys for the Christmas
exhibition and sale. The carved ami
mails, variously mounted, serve the
two-fold purpose of attractive, simple
toys for children and employment for
the old men who made them. Here
is one thing, at least, that an old man
may do rather than die.-The Survey.

Four Hundred Subs Taken.

Baltimore, Feb. 16.-William Pal
mer, second engineer of the Ameri-

arrived here today from Plymouth,
England, via New York, said he saw
the merchant submarine Deutschland
and 1876 other German underwater
boats in Plymouth harbor. Palmer
asserted that the British had cap
tured 400 enemy u-boats and that
1S7 of them were chained together
in Plymouth harbor. Capt. Koenig,
commander, and the Deutschland's s
crew are in English jails, the en-
gineer said Palmer formerly was
employed by the Chesapeake Steam
ship company, which operates steam
ers between this port and Norfolk.
He said he did not learn how the
Deutschland was captured.

FOLLOW UP OR FALL BACK.
Periodic Brilliancy Does Not Win
Success i'm Real Life.

How common it is in games Of
foot ball, base ball and other sports
that some quick thinking player
dashes off a thrilling play only tc
fall back for the remainder of the
game into obscurity and be forgot
ten-and for no other reason than
that he failed to follow up.
Periodic brilliancy is not success.
Follow up. When you think a
worthy thought, follow it up. When
you do a useful thing, follow it Up.
When you strike an effective blow for
a right cause, follow it up. It's the
man with the courage, first to start z
thing, and then to follow it up that
after awhile has an accumulation OF
points that stamp him great and mas
terful. Follow up or else you will
fall back.
The great man is simply the small
man become great. Every great man
at some time or other is the un-
known, obscure man. Make your
life count by compelling every sin
gle effort to figure in the annual
summing up. For, after all, success
itself is nothing more or less than
work we'll performed and followed
up day after day, year after year.
Persist, follow up, keep at it

MIDDLE SEEMS CLEARED.
Fire Insurance Situation Probably
Soon Normal Again.

Columbia, Feb. 17.-SiX of the
Seven sisters,' as the series of bills
to clear up the fire insurance muddle
and bring the companies back into
South Carolina, are known, have
passed the legislature. The remain
ing one, that repeating the valued
policy law, passed the house and was
on third reading in the senate, bu.
on account of the short time remain
ing for this session that bill was con-
tinued until next session.
The rating bill, probably the most
important of the series, has been
signed by Governor Manning. 1t
goes into effect on March 5, and it's
Importance is already shown by the
fact that several of the fire insurance
companies which last year withdrew
from the State are making prepara-
tions to reopen business here.
The act limiting the municipal Ii
cense tax on fire insurance COM
panies to 2 per cent, except in
Charleston, where it is per cent, is
now in Governor Manning's Office and
will be signed in a few days. The
other four, the fire inquest law, max
ing the insurance commissioner at
torney for service of suits against
companies, the building code and the
agents qualification act, have passed
both houses of the legislature and
only await formal ratification before
being ready for the signature of the
governor. They will be signed by
the governor without delay.
1t is understood that, while the
companies were very anxious to have
the valued policy repeal enacted into
law, as they felt this would reduce
the fire loss, still the majority of
them will return to business in South
Carolina under the six bills enacted
into law. This information has come
from one high in authority of the
companies and further it is known
that several are now making prepara-
tions to resume business in the State.
The clearing up of the fire insur-
ance muddle is largely due to Gov
ernor Manning's efforts and the work
of the special commission, consisting
of Senator Laney, Representative
Noise, Messrs. A. c. Furman, L. NJ:
Pinckney, Bright Williamson, J. D.
Harris, E. P. McCravey, ]. w. CASTOR
and Insurance Commissioner F. H.
McMaster. They worked hard and
faithfully on the situation and were
inspired only by patriotic motives.
Credit is also due to the tact and
generous as we'll as broad-minded as
sistance rendered by Mr.. J. H. Doyle,
of New York, attorney for the Nation
al Board of Fire Underwriters. Mr..
Doyle unseldshly placed himself at
the disposal of the commission and
the legislature and made splendid
impression and was in large meas
ure responsible for the happy solu-
tion of the problems.
There is every reason to believe
that the situation is now cleared and
that South Carolina will have ade-
uuate fire insurance protection.
