Them.
Magistrate Ballenger's court re

hen1.
Magistrate Ballenger's court re-
sembled q divorce court Tuesday
, afternoon when Mrs. Leona Rogers
a pretty young married woman o.
Conestee told her story of woe. The
complaint of the woman was that mel
husband of a few months, Grady
Rogers, would not support her and Il
was to force him to provide for hei
that she told for the benefit of she
presiding judge the story of hei
married life.
'I do not love him and never
haye loved him." Mrs. Rogers saic
in referring to her husband VINO
stood nearby and heard her de-
nounce him. "And. what Is moro,
never can love him."
!, Asked by Judge Rallenger II
she would have her husband pro-
vide for her, furnish her with
money and other luXlries although
she did not care for him, Mrs, Rogers
replied in the affirmative.
Then followed the question by Judge
Ballenger if there never had been any
love for Rogers why she had been
welded to him. Then came the most
dramatic moment in the entire pro-
cccdings.
"They doped me-" she screamed, "or
else / never would have married him.
He gave me love powders of some
kind, but | never really cared any
thing for him. There might have been
fascination for time but that fas
passed, and then, too, he won't support
me as he should"
Silence reigned supreme in the little
court room as the judge adjusted his
glasses and looked first at the woman
and then at her husband. Rogers, who
had heard it all, came forward and
broke his silence. Speaking in a
calm voice and in all earnestness he
offered to go back, to live with his
wife and to forget the past. Undoubt-
cdly this statement on his part had
much to do with the decision of Judge
Ballenger. Hearing this he smiled as
he announced his decision:
Case dismissed. Go back homo
and Sbo happy"
Arm in arm, husband and wife
left the court room and stepped into
the waiting car which carried them
back to their home at Conestee.-

ONLY LIVE oKAPl
Rare Animal is Distant Ancestor OF
tho Giraffe.

Rare Animal is Distant Ancestor OF
the Giraffe.
British naturalists, who have been
confidently expecting that the only
live okapi in captivity was to be
brought to the geological gardens in
Regents park, London, were disap-
pointed when the news came from
Antwerp that the animal had been
brought there from the Congo by DR..
Lebum. 1t was the gift OF Nine.
Landaghem, whose husband is in the
Congo medical service.
The okapi is the survivor of dis
tant ancestor of the giraffe. An adult
stands above five feet high, and al
though it has the general shape OF
the giraffe its neck is relatively short
Ell and its forelegs are not high in
proportion to the hindquarters.
The sides of the animals head are
light fawn color and the general colora-
ton Of the body is dark purple. The
most striking character is that the
rump and the upper part of the legs
are transversely striped with black
and white. 1t was first known in 1901,
having been found in the Semliki
forest, haunting low underground and
swamps.
This particular specimen was In
Nine. Landaghem's possession for a
number of years and photographs OF
it received in London show it eating
out OF her hand.

Rather Shy on Meat.
JThel German people are pretty, shy
on meat right now although they have
at least enough potatoes and rye to de
them. Rorsemeat is mighty good eat
ing for them now. On one occasion
found it necessary to kill ,thirty-si,
horses on account of incurable wounds
or disease There was no other way
for it. 1 gave orders to my assistants
to dig a trench, stand the horses be.
side the trench after II had been dug
shoot the animals and roll them in.
One horse I recall, was suffering
from leg disease which caused great
sores and assesses. I shot the horse
and rolled it into trenchs An old
woman was watching and as soon as
the horse was killed and before 1t was
covered up, the old soul came running
up with basket. asking that allow
her to cut off some of the meat.
gave orders to my men to cut hind
quarter off for her and this they did,
The last 1 saw Of the old woman was
when she was slicing that leg into
steaks, all smiling and happy while
she was doing it, a few sores meant
nothing, There is no question but what
even horse meatiis at premium In
Germany just now.
Fear Still Felt.
..No matter what kind Of govern
mcnt they have ii will be a long. Ions
time IL ever. in my opinion, before
those people forget their fear of au-
thority or any semblance of authority
Every official in Germany from the
town burgomaster, down to the game
warden wears uniform. Let the game
warden walk DOWN the street or out
into the country and there Is such
bowing and scraping on every side as
you never saw. Kaiser Bill has GER
tainly planted the fear and respect OF
any kind Of a uniform or any au-
thority into ordinary folks,
German. military officers and the
higher ups generally realize that they
are licked and licked badly, however
and the way they hate the Allies
great Scott! And they realize that
their own place in the sun has set for
a while anyhow. This bunch 1 guess
is pow going to- have TO go to work
since soldering isn't the high ana
mighty calling that It once was in Ger

Aleas Cooler and Will Davis wei

-Aleas Cooler and Will Davis were
acquitted in the Collcton county court
OF general sessions at Walterboro last
week of killing W. d. Thomas, a woods
rider for the Okatee club nearly three
years ago. Both men at former
trial were convicted of the murder of
Thomas and sentenced to electrocu-
ton. They were convicted on the
testimony of a young son of Coolers
who testified at the trial last week
that his former testimony was perjury
and that his grandfather now dead
hated Cooler and forced the grandson
to testify as he did.

man the other day, "A lot OF girls
who have been teaching school haze
recently taken business courses and
found empioymentN as stenogrephers
and office workers. The pay is a little
better although the work Is a little
harder and longer. The pay Of the
average woman school teacher in
York county, is about s65. The pay
of the average stenographer is
about SIS per mpnth. OF course the
teacher gets on in the afternoons
and on Saturdays but II she is any
teacher at all why she VIII utilize a
goodly portion of that time in prepar-
ing herself for better school work.
Still her job lasts only nine months at
most while the stenographer draws
her SIS twelve months In the
year. And the average girl these days,
the girl worth while, doesn't like this
thing of loafihs three months out Of
twelve" y 20
As to Confederate Pensions. =
In all probability there is going to
be holy howl going up from some
York county Confederate veterans and
wives OF veterans as a result OF the
new statute in regard to pensions. AqS
cording to the York county penAidstl,
board no person may receive a pen-
sion unless he or she Is able 10 prove
by at least two witnesses that the
applicant fought in the War Between
the States and giving company and
regiment, In the case Of York county
men who served In North Carolina
regiments 1t is necessary that they get
proof of services from company rosters
on file in Washington In many In
stances 1t is impossible to get witnesses
because there are no living witnesses
and 1t is reasonable certain that
records in Washington are not alto
gether accurate. About the only way
for some of the veterans is to make
affidavit that they served and in the

There is a big demand for factory
sites of small acreage. Formerly the
smaller factories We're shut out because
the holdings we're all III big acreage at
fancy prices. This new industrial section
Will supply the factories that employ a
large number Of people but need only
about an acre Of ground. It is estimated
that about 10 new plants will come, en-
ploying Oh an average OF 200 people each.
This with their families means a new
population Of at least $4,000 to 10000

men desiring TO enter the place would
constitute an act Of coercion.
He then in a friendly. conversational

He believed that a few men could have
