AMONG OUR LAV-MAKERS.
After DOlph JOnes's Scalp-SOldicr
Promises Unique Souvenir.

Editor Keowee Courier: | have
been thinking for some time OF writ
ing Il letter 10 the home papers to let
the people of Oconee county know
what is going on down here.
Nothing Of much importance has
been accomplished yet We have
killed several bills that were brought
over from last year--most OF them
hunting and fishing and dog bills.
We have a bill coming up soon
providing for the medical examina-
ton OF all school children. wish
the patrons Of the several school dis
tricts Of Oconec county would let me
hear from them In respect to this
bill--whether or not they would like
to see 1t passed.
have been thinking OF introduce
Ing a bill to Increase the pay Of jul
rors from 50 to $3 a day, as all ho-
tells and boarding houses have raised
the price OF food and lodging.
don't think citizen ought to be re-
quired to give his time in jury SER
vice without some compensation, and
with prices now obtaining. 1t Is diff
cult for him to meet the expenses in
cldCntnl to court attendance. | should
like to hear from the citizens of Oco-
acc county on this matter. am anX-
,rls to do what my constituents want
done when 1t Is in my power to do so.
Another measure in which the peo-
pie OF Oconee are vitality interested
has passed the House. This is a bill
to abolish the State Tax Commits
sion. This was passed in the House
by Il large majority, and it Is now up
to the Senate whether we shall re-
tain Kaiser DOlf or take his scalp. 7
sincerely hope the Senate will re-
move Pontius Pilate from the State
TAX Throne and reduce him to pri-
vatc ranks. | have done all could to
abolish the state Tax Commission,
feeling assured | was voicing the
sentiment OF my people. and as it has
passed the House feel relieved. The
responsibility is up to the Senate
now.
How long the House will continue
in session is difficult to determine.
Judging from the size Of the appro-
priation bill, it looks like we will
have to stay over time, at our own
expense. longer than we did last
year. Some OF the members seem to
think that we should appropriate
money for anything that is asked for.
| have been out to Camp Jackson
to see our soldier boys from Oconee.
We have Il fine set Of fellows out
there. They are all jovial and in
good spirits and seem to be enjoy
ing themselves. certainly did en-
Joy my stay with them. and it was
interesting to hear the boys tell Of
their experiences in camp life. One
or our boys said, when | was leaving,
that he would bring me Il piece OF
the kaiscr's ear rs 4 souvenir when
he gets back from France, as a token
or appreciation Of my visit to the
camp.

schools. lie asks the people OF the
county to write to him and let him
know what they want done in the
matter
DO as he asks. is our advice And
we nrGc each one who writes to give
the matter careful consideration be-
fore writing. Tell him by all means
TO support the bill; tell him that we
owe II to our children. for their own
good and the good Of other peoples
children. that ii they have any dis
ease, even in mild form. tho chill
dren and the parents should know 1t,
so that the defect may be remedied
and the spreading OF the disease be
prevented. Tell him that common
sense demands that where children
are brought together in considerable
numbers they should have every pro-
lection and safeguard thrown
around them, and that it Is pity
that our legislators and our people
have not in years past realized this
fact.
Tell him by all means to use his
every effort to secure the passage of

IMPROVING ONES TIME.

For some time the employees of
industrial and other plants will have
a least one day week OF freedom
from the routine OF ordinary daily
occupations. These days OF idlcness
for machinery, in order to conserve
fuel. should not be days Of idleness
for the employees Of the plants, or
business houses, or offices. Every
hour can be, and should be, utilized
TO advantage.
Now, that spring will soon open up
what better mode OF occupying ones
idle day than in preparing for the
garden that is going to mean so much
to every individual member Of each
community? Labor is scarce. Every
available hour that comes to the
men who are to have Involuntary
vacations" should be put to good
use. There is no fake or "war
scare" in the cry Of scarcity Of all
kinds OF food We must face two
facts suuarely--tlrat we are going to
have to produce Il greater quantity
OF food this year than heretofore.
and we arc going to have to system
atically conserve the supply now on
hand. and that which is to be pro-
nuccd this year
II j. in this section out Of the
question to do any gardening now
the weather preventing that. But
idle days can be utilized to adrant-
age in planning and getting things
ready for the time when the wcat her
will permit OF outside work. lIave
everything ready to utilize each mo-
mcnt when gardening time comes.
Make two OF everything grow where
only one grew before in your garden
and then some II YOU can. It will
all be needed.

Chicago, Dec. 2s.--Acute scarcity of

quotations this morning varied from
cats go ogS rs We snS ausangs. mn.
visions from SOC decline to a rise of
10c. Nearly continuous stormy wealth
er that interfered with Smelling and
with wagon traffic had good deal to
do with the meagerness of the move
uent Of corn to market and with the
fact that stocks were down close to
the vanishing point. An additional
reason, however, lay In the fact that
the surplus states this year had pro-
iuced I50,000,000 bushels less than the
average.
Oats lacked support notwithstand-
ing the strength Of corn.
Provisions, were heavy owing to
