Sumter Over the Top.

The announcement was made Satur-
day afternoon by County Chairman
Henry P. Moses that the full !iiota
Of Victory EondS for Sumter county
had been subscribed and the Game
Cock County had once again done its
full duty, when called upon by the
government. Sumter county was al
lotted S745,000 of the Victory bonds
and at first and during the first week
of the campaign many pessi.nist:c
citizens freely expressed the opinion
that the quota would not be raised.
But those in charge Of the campaign
never doubted and at the end of the
drive the subscriptions came in :'apidty
and more than the full quota WIS
placed. 1t is true that many who
were expected to take Victory bonds,
the expectation being based upon Che
known financial ability OF cer:ain CT
liens. did not take a dollars worth.
while others only saved their faces by
taking the minimum amount. But
others more patriotic did their full
duty and the county was saved the hu-
initiation Of failing to do what the
government asked the county to DO.

Fire I'm Jail Yard
Trusty Conviets Have a Hot
Time as Finale of a Joy Ride

Saturday night two convicts who
were given permission to come to
town for few hours freedom, as has
been the custom, it is stated, took
advantage Of the opportunity to act
like Slre-enough freemen. They
changed into citizens clothes and then
picked up a Ford car that they found
standing on the street and started off
on a JOY ride. After tearing around
awhile they found the gasoline sup
ply running low, so they went to the
jail yard to rep1enish the supply from
the gas tank of the big truck that was
stored under a shed in the Jail yard.
Being rather careless they took
lamp or lantern to furnish light while
dawing the gasoline. Naturally an
explosion occurred and the truck and
the shed We're burned. The fire de-
partment was called out and the FIRE
was gotten under control. before it
spread to other buildings In the
confusion the two joy riding convicts
made their escape and grabbing an
other car that was handy made their
way to Oswego, where they were sub
sequently rounded up and sent back to
the gang. The loss the county vii!
sustain by the burning Of the truck
has not been determined. The truck
was insured in the usual way an1
it is stated that the county will re-
cover about II percent Of the cost.
S5.OS0, if the adjustors decide that il
is total loss. The loss on the shed
will not be great.

to Mexican officials in Nuevo Laredo.
The proposed law would become ef-
fective q month before the United
States goes dry. The zone would ex-
tend from the Pacific coast to the

To offset the revenue losses to Mex

duty.

Preventable
Static Electricity, the Chief
Cause, Easily Combated by
Grounding Machinery

Washington, May 10.-Tloe main
cause Of the frequent and destructive
fires in the cotton gins Of the South is
static or frictional electricity-an Ole
ment easily controlled by simple
methods. That was shown conclu-
sively in recent Investigations by the
United States Department OF -AStl-
culture. through its Bureau oil chem
istry, which now has issued a clfcu!af
telling how to prevent b!aZes from
static electricity. and also giving Sug-
gestions for the prevention OF llres
from matches OF other foreign ma
terial in cotton. from friction. from
cotton hanging TO ribs in the gin. or
from other possible causes oi less M
portance.
So frequent were the mysterious gin
fires in 1917-thc losses in Texas ;iior"
that wear being estimated at MI
lion dollars-tilaf rumors OF atlen
enemy activity spread through the
country. and Uncle sam sent several
experts to Texas to determine the
cause and the preventive. The ex-
perts found that most of the tlfeS
were caused by sparks o. static cleo
tricity. but that it was easy enough TO
prevent the sparks from doing dam
age by the simple cXpedicnt OF yum
ming wires from the sin machinery to
the ground.
How to ground gin machinery is
