BAPTIST B. Y. p. u. PICNIC.

The Baptist Young Peoples Union
of the city, gave most enjoyable
moonlight picnic Tuesday evening al
Little Mountain. There were sever.
al automobiles and a truck, all filled
to capacity, nearly forty persons
being in the party.
Miss Elizabeth Edmunds, who ar.
ranged the occasion, promised a
good time and lived up to her word
Something was "doing" all the time
There was music, and singing, and
then more music, and more singing.
The feast, spread out on the slope
of the mountain, was also above
pan It proved the fact that Baptist
women know how to cook, at least.
However, Miss Caroline Reese and
Miss Fannie Edmunds furnished the
surprise of the evening by their
clairvoyant abilities. They made
public startling facts about some of
those present, to the great delight of
the hearers.

COOPERATION NECESSARY TO
PREVENT SUGAR FAMINE.

Columbia.-There Is shortage Of
sugar. There will be no sugar famine.
This is the assurance given by tho
Food Administration.
While manufacturers using sugar
and the trade are under rigid restric-
uons, conservation Of sugar In the
household Is no honor; but the Food
Administration is able to give positive
assurance that there will be no sugar
famine only upon the presumption
that the American people are going
to conscientiously and patriotically
i've up to the regulations-an allow
ance for the household Of two pounds
per month per person.
I'VE cannot in honor compel Europe
to do With less while we take more
for ourselves" says the Food Admin.
istration.
Canning Is good economy, and sugar
for canning may be had on certificates,
but 10 far as possible fruits and vegs-
tables should be put up without sugar.
The success OF the sugar program OF
the Feed Administration depends
largely upon the honor and cooDera'
tion of the American people.

WILL BUY FORAGE
FOR ARMY CAMPS
South Carolina Farmers Who Have
Forage to offer viii Find Ready
Market In This State-AIl Offers
VIII Be Given Consideration.

Columbia-Ausust Kohn, chairman
Of Conservation and Production OF
the Food Administration for South
Carolina, has received letter from
the Chief OF the Forage Branch OF the
War Department, Quartermasters
Division, stating that offers OF forage
from farmers and dealers having 1t
for sale in the neighborhood OF the
army camps and cantonments will be
eladly received and will be given con.
Sideration.
"In fact, says the letter, we are
here to buy forage f& the government
wherever we can do so to the best ad.
vantage, all things considered"
It 10 advised when contractors or
farmers are submitting their propos-
ais on forage they should state the
kind and grade Of forage they have to
sell, the quantity and its location, the
time they can make shipment, and tho
price. II prices are satisfactory, pur-
chases will be made, It Is assured.
All proposals should be addressed to
Chief Of the Forage Branch, Office OF
the Quartermaster General, United
States Army, Lytton Building, Chica-
60, Ill.
Mr.. Kohn has been working for
some time past to assure this assur-
ance from the Government, as it has
been felt that farmers in this and other
States, who have forage to sell should
be given consideration, especially
when it is considered that the. camps
and cantonments offer the natural
market, and the saving in freight to
the Government would be a factor not
to be disregarded.

ALLIED FOOD CONTROLLERS
URGE ELIMINATION OF WASTE.

Columbia.-Herbert Hoover, federal
food administrator, has cabled the fol.
lwoinx Joint resolution of the Food
Controllers of the United States,
France, Italy and Great Britain back
to Americe'
Resolved, that while the increased
production of the United States rem
ders It possible to relax some Of tJs
restrictions, which have been borne
with peculiar hardship upon all our
peoples, yet It is absolutely necessary
that rigid economy and elimination OF
waste, In the consumption and hand
ling Of all foodstuffs as we'll as In,
creased production, should be main
tanned throughout the European allied
countries and In North America. It
is only by such economy and elimina-
tion Of waste that the transportation
Of the necessary man and supplies
from North America to the European
front can be accomplished and that
stocks Of foodstuffs can be built up in
North America as an insurance
against the ever present danger OF
harvest failure and the possible neces-
sity for large and emergency drafts
to Europe. We canot administer the
food problem on the basis Of one
years war. We must prepare for its
long continuance II we are to insure
absolute victory"

LESS SUGAR NEEDED TO
SWEETEN TEA THAN COFFEE

Save the waste. =
100 million cups Of coffee are used
daily in the United States.
700 million cups Of tea are used
daily in the United States.
ITO million cups Of tea and coffee.
II even an average Of half a tea.
spoon of sugar per cup is left undis-
solved at the bottom Of the cups Of
tea and coffee, the waste would be l.
100000 pounds OF sugar daily.
Stir your sugar until 1t dissolves.
Less sugar is needed when It dis.
solves.
It Is estimated that cne-third to one
half Of all sugars used in homes Is
used in tea and coffee.
Think 1t over. How Is It in your
home? Isn't there q chance for say

LUCIEN LOMAX,
SOCIETY LEADER

The above heading is given gratis
as a feeble remuneration for good
time Wednesday night. Mr.. Lucien
Lomax arranged a moonlight picnic
for himself and her, and six other
couples. They went in automobiles
and, after many indecisions, arriv-
ed safely at Cold Springs. Despite
the fact that this was ''Moonlight"
picnic, King Sol got so interested
that he refused to retire behind the
horizon until long after the young
people first quenched their thirst
with cool draughts from the spring.
One of the most noticeable fea-
lures of the evening was the half
dozen sandwiches furnished by Miss
Ruth Howie. She also brought her
Hawaiian guitar along and furnished
much diverting entertainment.
Many unusual things occurred: Max
Smith was quiet; Walter Wilkinson
got hungry; and Miss Susie Mabry
seemed to have a good time. The
man and woman in the neon did
their best to lend inspiration to the
occasion. They fingered in one long
kiss throughout the whole evening.
One romance was positively begun.

THE "5o-5op RULE
STILL IN EFFECT.

Household Released From mo Wheat"
Pledges, But Must Still Use Equal
Amount Of Wheat Substitutes. ....
Columbia.-Housewi who prac-
tically put hteir homes on wheatless
basis last spring have been released
from their pledges by the Food Adj
ministration to go absolutely without
wheat until the harvest AS no
change has been made in the fifty.
fifty" rule, however, housewives will
continue to purchase an equal weight
Of wheat substitutes with their wheat
-four. Bakers are still obliged to make
Victory Bread, which must contain at
last 25 per cent wheat substitutes.
The coming In Of the new wheat
crop has made It, possible for the ma
ton to go back partially to It's old
habit of eating, but the uncertainties
OF war and the necessity for building
up a food reserve are incentives to
caution, even in the face OF a good
crop.
Public eating places are likewise re-
leased from their mo wheat" pledges.
