Girls to Grow Food

In the present food situation the
girls of Union county are going to
play a prominent part.
To do this they are asked to cul.
tivate one-tenth acre Of some food
stuff, the produce of which should be
above home consumption and mark
etable. In this way each of these
girls will help feed someone and at
the same time realize a purse for
themselves.
Numbers of these clubs have al
ready been organized through the
schools. We expect to reach every
section of the county in the near fu-
ture and we hope that each girl will
not only feel it duty but a privilege
to become member of this food club.
These girls will be instructed and
supervised by the home demonstra-
tion agent.
Any girls interested that have not
or will not be reached through the
8 hools please see or notify me at
your earliest convenience.

"The Troubles
Of The Merchant"
Coming to Union

Announcement has been made by
Jas. l.. Carbery, secretary of the
Union Chamber of Commerce, that
he has completed arrangements with
The National Cash Register Com
pany to bring u Union, s. c.. an il
lustrated lecture on retail merchan-
dlslng. The lecture, together with a
three reel feature film, "Troubles of
Merchant, and How to Stop Them
will be given Friday night, March
1st, at 7:30 o'clock in the Court
House. w. J. Burns, expert lecturer
will accompany the film.
The retail merchandising lecture,
which has been prepared by The
National Cash Register Company. is
declared to be one of the most COM
prehenslve lectures on the reasons
for retail business failures ever pre-
pared, and has been shown before
commercial bodies, conventions, and
other organizations the country over.
BY means of stereopticon slides, the
lecture deals with the value of news
paper advertising to the merchant
tells him how to prepare advertise
ments, and also explains in detail the
best methods of window display, how
to solve delivery problems, perfect a
store organization, and other inter-
esting ideas.
The feature film, Troubles of a
Merchant, and How to Stop Them"
which will be shown for the first
time in this city, was prepared by the
Essanay Company for The National
Cash Register organization at a cost
of $4,000. Expert actors were en-
ployed for every character, and it is
said that every scene contains les
son for retail merchants and their
salespeopie.
The film tells the story of Mr..
White, grocer, who was discour-
aged and distheartened because of his
lack of success. The story shows the
indifference of his clerks, his bad
store systems, his poorly arranged
stock, and other causes Of his trou-
bles. How he finally rose to success
and prosperity through the introduc-
tion Of modern methods into his store
will be shown in the film.
Many ideas of Importance to mer-
chants and clerk will be brought out
during the lecture. In other COM
munities where it has been shown, it
has met with great enthusiasm. It
is expected that every business man
and clerk in the city will avail him
self of the opportunity offered by the
lecture, and that large attendance
will result. No charge will be made
for admission.

with firm step and proud heart after
the martial drumbeat of her destiny.

Money Not Main Object.

"All healthily minded people like
making IN pney-ought TO like 1t and
enjoy the Sensation of winning 1t; but
the main object of their life is not
money. A good soldier, for instance,
mainly wishes to do his fighting we'll.
He is glad of his pay-very properly
so, and justly grumbles when you keep
him ten years without it-still, his
main notion Of life is to win battles,
not to be paid for winning them

Junior Red Cross

The Junior Red Cross is the ex-
tension of the American Red Cross
to the school system of America, by
which each school building may be
given an opportunity to carry On ar-
thorized Red Cross work by forming
a School Auxiliary.
School membership is thus secured
as unit and not by individual en-
rollment.
The Union County Red Cross chap
ter, through the cooperation of the
superintendent, principals and teach
ers is planning to organize school
auxiliaries.
The following committees have
been selected:
Chapter School Committre-Jas.
H. Hope, Davis Jeffries, w. c. Mann.
Cooperation Committee-Mrs. y.
H. Wallace, Mrs. Davis Jeffries, Mrs.
F. M. Farr, Mrs: J. A. Sawyer
Each pupil wishing to be enrolled
as Junior Red Cross member will
be given the opportunity to contrib
ute 25c. The total amount collected
will constitute the School Fund, to
be used for various kinds of war re-
lief.
This fund may be increased by
sales conducted by the children or
by various kinds of entertainments.
Certain citizens may be able to
help out by voluntary donations to
this fund.
One form of War Relief that should
appeal to the school children is pro-
viding food and clothing for the des-
titute little one in foreign lands.
Some of the olders girls may be able
to make the refugee garments. The
Junior Red Cross will bring many op-
portunities for service.
The children will learn lessons of
patriotism and will work with the
older people for "a common purpose,
and thus become useful citizens of
our great country.
The 22nd is the special day set
apart for Junior Red Cross member
ship, and we trust that every teacher
in Union county will on that day
bring the matter to the attention of
their pupils.

Chairman N. P. Darlington, of the state highway commission that the last A miles of the long stretch will be finished within few months, re- gardless of labor shortage.
 California's great trunk highway system. when first projected, was gen erally accepted as a lure for automo- bile tourists. Its completion, however has brought a realization that the state was building better than the peo- pie knew. The smooth asphalt road for automobiles now may be used as a military highway.
 Since the war has brought out that the mobilization of coast defenses is necessary, the importance of the Cali fornia state highway has become enor- nous. It will permit of the quick movement of munitions, commssaries. troops, cannon and all that goes to make powerful coast defense. If the occasion should arise for hasty mo- bilization to any point on the Pacific coast, the newly completed travel art cry would provide a means practically independent of the railroads.
 There would also be available for military use the enormous number of automobiles in the state, many of which now are used in passenger and freight transportation up and down the coast. It has been estimated that there are automobiles enough in Los Angeles county to move almost the en- tire population in one load.

SYNTHETIC RUBBER
 INVENTOR IN STATE

C. F. Slosson of Beddow X Slosson, is a visitor in Phoenix, coming here from Nogales on his way to Jerome. He brings with him samples of synthetic rubber originated by an aged chemist of Nogales, in which he is greatly inter- ested. Of course. a successful syn thetic rubber would be one of the most valuable of processes, hence MT. Slos- son believes he has something particu- larly good.
 In the samples shown is a bit of syn thetic rubber which the chemist made seven years ago, and a sit of rubber hose made of a combination of rubber, reclaimed old stock. and the synthetic material, which has not dried out in that time. It is believed that the great est field for the material will be found in its combination with old rubber, which. it Is claimed, will be reclaimed thereby.
 Mir. Slosson will stop in Jerome for some time, where he hopes to interest people in the process and the secret formula.
