4 MONTHS IN u. S. COURT

Four months in prison and fine

in federal court last week at Macon
upon Thomas Harris, of Sumter coun-

He had previously been acquitted by
a jury in the Sumter Superior court
on a similar charge growing out of
the same offense. Deputy Sheriff
Summers was one of the states wit

Harris was said to have been a

seeking to enlist the interest Of pub

to invest to the end that more home

and some relief afforded.
"In the meantime, scores Of peo-

TO STAY HIGH,
BOARD DECIDES

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.-(By
Associated Press. 1.-The cost of liv-
ing is likely to stay high for a long
time to come in the opinion of the
Philadelphia Board of Trade. This
view is result of a compilation of
statistics from many lines of trade
and industry.
According to these figures, the
advance in prices in this country
4ince 1914 has been about 107 per
cent, in Canada 115 per cent; Great
Britain 1873 per cent, and France
-35 per cent. 1t is pointed out that,
spite of material reductions in the
ice of steel, the advance in other
commodities since the armistice has
been SO great that the average price
schedules have been reduced but ST.
per cent. below prices prevailing Oc-
.ober l, 1918.
The following are given as reasons
why wages will not be much less for
considerable time.
Practical stoppage of immigration
since 1914, depriving this country of
several millions of workers who would
normally have come to US and thus
have relieved the labor shortage
which confronts American industry
upon the resumption of capacity OPP
erations.
Retention in the government mill
tary service of nearly 100000 work
ers, which, it is declared will doubt
less continue an indefinite period.
Creation of new industries such as
shipbuilding, manufacture of chem
lcals and dyes.
Urgent demand for building and
construction of every class due to
their having been forcibly held back
FOR several years.
Shortage of world food supplies
and uniformly high prices.
Proportionately higher levels of
commodity prices existing throughout

CORN OIL SUPPLANTING HIGH PRICED
OLIVE OILS-IS SUPERIOR FOR COOKING
BY EDWIN F. BOWERS, M. D.
of Side-Steppng Ill Health" Zone Therapy,"

freedom from rancidity is due to the
careful and thorough method of its
preparation. For, instead of being
pressed "cold," as is olive oil, corn
oil is purified by filtering and steam
ing. The water, protein and glycerine
elements are removed and the oil is
thoroughly sterilized. Any disease
germs that may have gotten into the
oil are killed and the ferments which
later on might cause rancidity ARE
destroyed so that, with proper care,
corn oil will keep sweet and pure
for an indefinite period.
1hv oil content in corn averages
about five per cent of the grain SO
that from a three million bushel crop
of corn, there is potential prospect
of four hundred million gallons of
corn oil. Which insures compare
lively inexpensive article of diet for
American consumption.
Not an Acquired Taste
Corn oil is a clear, limpid, pale
yellow fluid, free from odor, and
with an agreeable, sweet flavor. 1t
possesses qualities of palatability
that do not have to be acquired.
1t has been found that corn oil IS
great improvement over butter in
the making of cakes, cookies and
buildings; while it is superior to lard
as shortening for biscuits, pic
crust, bread and crackers.
In fact, the great pie, bread and
cracker manufacturers have found
COIN ell much more satisfactory and
economical than any other form of
shortening. In the preparation of
cheese straws, muffins,. bran gems,
and other delicacies it has given bet
ter results than anything heretofore
used.
For deep frying of doughnuts,
mush, fritters, meat balls, fish, GRO
quotes, rissoles, and other appetite
stirring edibles, where nice brown
crust is a contamination devoutly to
be desired, corn oil has proved itself
of unique value.
Housewives who have poured two
or three tablespoonful of this oil
over a roast Of beef or lamb, or veal
find that it checks the seeping out of
the meat substances, and causes the
meat to cook in its own rich juices.
This gives an unusual tenderness to
the roast, and increases measurably
the meat flavor. 1t also facilitates
the thorough cooking of the roast,
and prevents the outside from be-
ing burnt into a disagreeble tast-
ing and indigestible cinder.
AS a dressing in the form of a
mayonnaise or French dressing for
cold boiled vegetables, such as cab
bage, beets, turnips, potatoes, eau
| liflowers and other vegetables, corn
IS all that the most critical cpl
cure could desire.
In fact it is not going too far to
state that corn oil will, within the
next decade or two, do more to re-
make the well-known and justly Gel

CROSSING FATALITIES.

Up in Vermont Sunday three per- sons were killed when a locomotive struck an automobile at a railroad crossing, it not being the custom for engineers to stop their trains at every intersection of highway, even on the Central Vermont. and unfortun- ateIy i. is too frequently the case that the users of the highways show a disposition to disregard the dangers that exist where grade crossings are concerned
 From all that is known of the sad affair. the victims of which included the engineer as well as two occupants Of the auto, there was no attempt made to stop, look and listen" in accord with the advice which is so plainly displayed at such places. and what occurred was only what has too often happened under similar condi tionz- In spite of all the horrors of such affairs and the steadily increas- ing number of them. those who find it necessary to negotiate railroad crossings seem to be in such a hurry that they prefer to sacrifice. or take a chance of sacrificing, their lives rather than delay their mad rush the brief time that would be required to insure their safety.
 The experience of others doesn't seem to be sufficient to guide some people away from dangerous practices. Rather do some insist upon having a hairbreadth escape before they grasp the lesson of carelessness. It is interesting to note in this con- nection that the Baltimore and Ohio railroad is endeavoring to have the clergymen in the towns and cities along it's lines impress upon their focks the importance of observing Ssfety first rules at crossings and 4tations.

MT. Editor: One of the struggles Of today is between capital and labor. Statistics show that the highest living wage today. and in the last decade. is right here in this country, and as a result people from all nations. great and small, immigrate to this country for the purpose of. as they say. get ting education, but in my opinion it is to get riches.
 The loss caused to labor in New York alone for the last two years has been estimated at s30.0e0.000. in Can ada at nearly s20.000 .000. and in Ger many $30.000.000. Due to what? :? Strikes, and here's the reason: the la boring man wishes to elevate him self to the same standing as the man of means and education.
 Union men travel sixteen and eigh- teen miles daily to and from work Work eight hours and consider he has done a days work. In reality he thinks nothing and looks forward only for Saturday night and pay day. One hears him complaining of the high cost of living, telling how father rais- ed ten children, on two dollars per day, etc. but did you ever hear him say, T spent a young fortune on my car" it always needs something rev I'll bet you never.
