Isn't il surprising how long it has

housekeeping Is 4 'cicnce-a science
so pure and simple that every act has
a reason
Years ago housekeeping was looked
upon as rou'lne-nothlng more.

The fear OF appearing lazy was a
bugbear IN the mind Of every little

Dressed to Kill in "SheII-CIoth."

ShelI-cloth is the name of a new
fabric being manufactured in Eng
land. The stuff is fine serge and an
essential part of projectiles.
And now that the war is over the
stuff is going into the making OF
clothes instead of shells, says the
Philadelphia North American. II
ought to make "staggeringly" good
looking clothes, don't you think? One
woman might say quite truly to an
other: ooh, my dear, she was dressed
to kill, all in shellcloth."
Or, on the other hand, what clever
opportunity for the feminine cat to
say that her dear enemy has "shock-

I'VE had better sign the treaty and
have done with it. But whether we
sign it or not, the worst is yet to
come; and we refuse to cheer up"
That was apparently the attitude
OF the greater part of the German peo-
pie on Friday, June 20, when this re-
view was written. However, at that
time it was impossible to forecast the
action that would be taken by the Ger
man government, and the news col
umns will tell whether the treaty was
signed or rejected, by Monday, June
%, at 6 40 p. m, Paris time, when the
aime limit given the Germans expired.
Friday morning came the news that
the Scheidemann cabinet had fallen
and that Gustav Noske, minister of de-
tense, was to become head Of the new
government This was taken to mean
that the treaty would be signed, as
Scheidemann had been the chief OPP
ponent of such a course. 1t was be-
rgfeyed that the rule of Noske would
amount to a dictatorship. Another
story was that BernstOrff would sue

Meanwhile, the allied nations, TAX

zion for immediate action in case of
rejection of the treaty. They had Ger
many encircled by ring of guns and
bayonets and were ready to invade
from three sides, while on the north
the guns of their fleets would enforce
a renewed blockade by sea. Before
the week ended the British grand fleet
was on war footing. The immense

start across the Atlantic, was made

SMALL BOY DROWNED
IN BIG RESERVOIR
AT CALHOUN FALLS

Little William Culberson, the 9
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. W. G.
Culberson, of Union, was drowned on
Friday afternoon at Calhoun Falls,
when he fell into a. large water re-
servoir while playing at its edge.
His mother was visiting in Cal
houn Falls, being called there to the
bedside of her father, Mr.. J. D. Mas
ters, who is in very poor health and
brought her son with her. The little
boy was evidently playing near the
reservoir by himself and probably
fell into the water and was drowned.
He remained in the water for some
80 minutes before his death was
known.
Physicians worked frantically on
the lad for several hours in an ef-
fort to revive him, but were unable
to do so. The body was taken to
Union Saturday for burial.

DIAL INTERESTED ..
IN MOTOR ROUTES

Washington, June 6.-Senator
Dial has under discussion with the
postoffice department the establish
ment of parcel post motor routes / in
South Carolina and is also investigat-
ing neighborhood cooperative associ-
ations for motor transportation and
marketing. He has some hope of ar
ranging to have the adaptibility of
the latter tt conditions in his own
State tried out through the operation
of one or two demonstration routes,
in cooperation with the federal bu-
reau Of markets.
Secretary Houston, a graduate of
the University of South Carolina, has
responded with cordial interest and
has offered Senator Dial the benefit
of data gathered by the department
of agriculture. He says in a letter
to Senator Dial:
"The bureau of markets has con-
Quoted an investigation Of the posi-
bilities of motor transportation for
rural districts and it has cooperated
with the local interest in several
sections in the establishment Of dem
onstration routes where trsnsporta-
ton facilities are inadequate. AS a
result of this work, two bulletins on
motor transportations have recently
been issued. a..... 49,.
"It might be well for the CONNER
cial organizations of the places you
mention to consider, On their own in
iative, the feasibility of establishing
motor truck routes through the Sec
tions you have in mind. IF they
should decide to do this, the experts
of the bureau Of markets will be
glad to render all possible assistance
in an advisory way"

BITTERNESS SHOWN ~. .....'
IN SENATE DEBATE
OVER PEACE TREATY

Washington, June 6.-Nobody
who has seen the suffering Of Euro
pean peoples or stood in solemn med
itation over the graves of any of
those tens Of thousands Of American
boys who sleep beneath the soil of
France can listen to the debate in
the American senate nowadays with
out wondering if this is June 1914,
or June, 1919, or if there has been
a world war at all.
Party rancor, personal bitterness,
sarcasm, sneers at the statesmen of
foreign nations, distrust Of the mo-
tives Of governments and peoples
with which the United States is at
peace, and all the germs Of that
passion which makes bad feeling be-
tween nations and eventually leads
them to bloodshed are to be found
in the senate debate.
Instead Of an era Of reconsidera-
ton which might have it's beginning
in expressions Of altruism and ideal
ism, SO much in accord with Amer
ican tradition and precedent, the SEN
ate is in the midst of a controversy
in which men like Senators Borah,
johnson and Reed are vehemently
arguing for an absolute detachment
by the United States from associa-
ton with other nations Of the world,
while Senator Lodge and almost q
majority Of the Republican party in
the sense give every evidence Of
satisfaction that the extreme op-
ponents of the League Of Nations
are conducting the assault.
Leak Mere Pretext.-
The row over the text of the
treaty and the suposition that copies
Of it fell into the hands Of financial
interests is side-show, a pretext, a
vehicle for the outlet Of argument
against the League of Nations itself
an opportunity of opportunities to
discredit it and stir up opposition to
the covenant.

DIRECT FLIGHT s,.<
is NOT PLANNED

)! Plymouth, Eng, June IA cam
vass last night among the members
of the crews Of all the American
navy's NC boats regarding the feasi-
bility of direct Atlantic flight by
the NC-4 developed a wide diver
gence of opinion. No one would say
it was impossible or even impractica-
BILE, but there was general agree
ment that much depended upon the
direction Of the wind and that there
was greater prospect Of success in.
flying from New England to Ireland
than the reverse.
Lieutenant E. F. Stone, pilot Of
the NC-4, was positive no attempt
would be made to fly home by way
of Ireland and New Foundland. He
pointed out that all the NC planes
are still in an experimental stage and
that none Of them was built for q
direct atlantic flight. He thought the
chance of favorable wind from this
side was too remote to make serious
consideration of the project possible.
Advocates of the plan contended
that if one or two member Of the
crew were dropped, enabling the
plane to carry a greatly increased
supply of gasoline, there was an ex-
cellent chance of success. They
argued that the destroyers used to
aid this flight could be stationed
along the direct course to ensure
the safety Of the crew even If the
plane came to grief. /.
