but had lived, the life Of a chaste
virgin with comparatively perfect
habits under the control Of her will.
This will was accentuated by the in
struction and inspiration she gather
ed from her constant Bible readings
and secret devotions. This will shone
out in her life and was the constant
subject of much favorable comment
by those with whom she associated.
Aunt Sarah, as many had learned to
call her, was a lover. She loved
everybody who tried to live, right and
synpathized with the unfortunate.
She loved her immediate relatives de-
votedly, especially her nephews and
nieces and really gave her life to
their support and training. She
loved the Lord and His cause. For
early in life she became member
of the Presbyterian church at Mid
way, but eighteen years ago She
changed her church fellowship by
uniting with the First Baptist
church Of Manning to which she was
loyal and, much devoted ever after
ward, although her home in the
country was too far away to Justify
regular attendance upon its services.
She lived in the faith and died in the
faith. Her patience under affiiction
was sweet and her submission under
the will Of God beautiful. Jesus
loved her, and His gentleness in her
made her great.
Her remains were laid to rest in
the Hodge cemetery near the home
in the presence OF large concourse
of sympathizing friends and sur
rounding relatives, being the last
member Of great family.
"She lived in deeds, not years; in
thoughts, not breaths; in feelings, not
figures on dial; and counted time
by heart throbs; great woman"

Berlin, Jan. 30.-(Via London) -
Germany undoubtedly will be able to
hold out until the next harvest If the
supplies Of food are husbanded and
distributed carefully, although stocks
Of provisions this year are scantier
than in the two previous years Of the
war, said Adolph Won Batocki, presi-
dent Of the food regulation board, in
an address today, prompted by trou-
BILE in food distribution. Reckoning
five pounds of potatoes as equal lin
food value. to one pound of grain,
Herr Won Batocki figured the total
supply available for man and beast
as equivalent to 100000 tons of
grain less than last year, since the
increase of 100000 tons in the grain
harvest is more than counterbalanced
by the decrease in the potato crop,
amounting to 9o,Ooo,000 tons.
The shortage Of potatoes also af-
fects the supply of meat, milk, but
ter, ETC., since it has necessitated util-
ization of turnips for food and pro-
hibition of the use Of the grain for
fodder.
Each hundredweight Of turnips of
which, the cattle are deprived means
a reduction of fifteen quarts in the
milk supply.
Supply From Rumania.
The foodstuffs captured in Rumania
furnished welcome and valuable ad-
dition, Herr Won Batocki said, but
owing to transportation difficulties
VIII be available only gradually. The
problem Of food supply is being
brought home to Berlin by discus-
sions regarding the introduction of q
standard bread. The proposed aboli-
tion of wheaton rolls and the issue
Of uniform loaves of mixed rye and
wheat are Objectionable both to the
upper classes, which prefer the tast-
ier rolls, and to the workers, who will
have to pay more for the mixed loaf
than for the present rye bread. How
ever, the authorities declare the
change is inevitable, or the weekly
bread ration would have to be re-
duced.
The difficulties are due not to any
reduction in the total supply for Rer-
lin, but to the fact that the better
classes, which formerly consumed
only part of their bread ration, now
are using it down to the last roll.
Another factor consists Of the sup
Elementary rations issued. to the
working classes to exc out inadequate
supplies of other articles of food. The
bread problem also has beer accentu-
ated recently by the severe winter
conditions. Charlottenburg, is one of
the richest Berlin municipalities, is
one OF several municipalities which
Twas n9t able to issue potatoes this
week. .,~.

A pleasant social event was the an
nual. reception Friday night by the
Manning local union of the W.. G. T..
w., for the teachers and the honorary
or gentlemen members of the organi-
cation. One hundred and twenty-five
invitations were issued and there was
hearty response to the invitations.
The reception was held at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Sprott, the
latter being widely known as the er-
thusiastic State president Of the W..
C. T.. ~. Oysters, stewed, fried and
raw, with the usual condiments, were
served. Music was furnished during
the evening by Misses Marian Wells,
Maud Sprott, Leila Margaret Dick
son, Aileen Plowden, Annie Hirsch-
mann and Mrs. S. o. Plowder:: Mrs.
Plowden especially delighted all pres
ent with her songs. The Rev. Wat
son B. Duncan performed the Office
of toastmaster in most happy man
ner. The following were the toasts:
"Our Organization-the w. c. T. U.,"
Mrs. Joseph Sprott, State president
and local president Of the w. c. T.
u; "State-wide Prohibition" the
Hon. Charlton DuRant, Senator from
Clarendon County; "Women and Pro-
hibition," the Rev. L.. B. McCord, Of
the Presbyterian Church; "The
Church and Prohibition" the Rev. A.
G. Wilkins, of the Baptist Church.
All agreed that it was a most enjoy
able occasion and every one present
was profuse in thanks to the hospit-
able hostess Of the evening.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Clarendon County Teachers Associa-
tion was held in the Court House here
Saturday, with very good attend
ance, considering the bad condition of
the roads. Secretary Of State w.
Banks Dove was expected to be pres-
ent and deliver an address to the
teachers, but he was prevented from
coming by illness in his family. Pa
pers on the Importance Of Good
Reading in Our Schools" were read
by Mrs. J. X. Breedin, of Manning,
and Mr.. w. M. Milton, of Sardinia,
and these were followed by highly
interesting round-table discussion. T.
E.. Lide was elected delegate and
executive committeeman to the next
State association meeting. The asso-
citation also took steps looking to'the
organization of county athletic as
ISOLATION. The next meeting will be
held on the last Saturday in Febru-
ary, when the subject for discussion
will be "The Various School Prob
lens that Confront the Rural School
Teacher" Those designated to lead
in the discussion are Mrs. S. o. Plow-
den, Mr.. G. /. Corley, and Misses
Alethea Edwards and Helen Malone.
Arrangements will be made to serve
refreshments at the next meeting and
it is hoped that the weather will
permit large attendance.
