The SoiIsd Hankerchief and the Red
Cross First Aid.

One of the most death dealing
germ producing of the daily evils is
the soiled handkerchief. 1t is very
harmless looking, and often the dust
it holds is not visible to the naked
eye, but is very apparent in the in
lection Of a slight wound.
Not so very long ago, the local
Red Cross had a case Of this kind
brought to its attention for medical
treatment. The accident, a minor
one, happened on the playground,
caused by a bit of cinder getting into
a pupils eye. A little pal immediate.
ly offered the use Of his hahdker.
chief-that little piece of linen had
already done duty as a towel, used
boy fashion.
The cinder was removed, and the
child apparently forgot it. Three
days later, eye trouble appeared,
grew worse, and the services of an
oculist revealed the story, an infected
eye. For six weeks the child suffer-
ed terribly, a threatened blindness
making it all the worse. Now n
bandage has been removed and
shade substituted, but the eye will
never again be in any way normal.
The handkerchief caused the iufec-
ton.
Teachers, parents, and others who
play a part in the lives of the chill
dren should instruct them never to
use a handkerchief about a wound,
onlv as a first aid means to stop the
flow of blood by making it into a
|tourniquet.
In every school, and in every home
the mother should have at hand a
Red Cross first aid box. This box
contains iodine swabs ready for ap-
plication to the wounds, bandages,
antiseptic ointment, a preparation OF
creosote and iodine to be used in
stopping small flows of blood from
minor cuts, triangular bandages, adj
! hesive tape, surgeons scissors and
| tweezers, safety pins, and w o pack
ages of different size bandages, with
gauze pad. These kits are not to be
used for emergency only. The artl-
cles are securely packed in a dark
green tin box, 1Ox9k inches. Direc-
Itions for use of the contents are plac-
ed on the inside. of the lid. They
are invaluable in service, in home and
schools, and are now in great de-
Imand. They may be ordered through
lyour local Red Cross Chapter.

Henry Estienne. Wesley's vague
quotation of an ancient Hebrews
Cleanliness is next to goodness"
sounds like Bible. Numerous pas
sages from hymns are also errone-
ously ascribed to Scripture. But pro-
verbs, sacred and secular, cause the
most confusion. Much pithy wisdom
of far later origin than even the
latest dates literary critics assign to
the wisdom books of the Old Tesla
ment sounds like Bible" This is
especially true of colloquial sayings
collected and given a literary form
at about the same time the Bible was
being turned into English. Haywood
printed his Proverbs" in 1916 and
many of his collection are probably
in greater daily use than of the BIZ
BILE Proverbs. Among the common
proverbs, first printed by him, are
those about haste making waste.
looking before leaping, fat in the fire.
making while the sun shines, striking
when the iron is hot, the tide tarry-
ing for no man, ruling the roost, bet
ter to bow than break, two heads are
better than one, locking the stable
after the horse is stolen, all IS well
that ends we'll, better late than new
err, and countless other expressions
that are woven into common speech.
Franklin contributed other common
proverbs, worthy to rank with the
preferred ones of Scripture.
On the other hand, our literature
and u colloquial speech are fairly
saturated with phrases of Scripture
which are seldom consciously quoted.

Proverbs.
The American Humane Education
Society thinks it has made a point
by showing that Spare the rod and
spoil the child" cannot be found in
the Bible, but was written by Samu-
ell Butler in 1868. Butler probably
got the a~lliterative spare and spoil'
from Ralph Venning, who used it in
1549, but the idea goes back to Pro-
verbs 1924: Gle that spareth his
rod hateth his son; but he that low
eth him chasteneth him betimes.'
We are with the Humane Society
(and the chastened) in questioning,
the dominance of unselfish love in
the average Christening" but can
not approve of its clubbing as to
the quotation, so far as substantial
sanction goes.
But most people will be surprised
to learn that the exact words were
not Scripture. just as they would be
to learn that there is no direct state
ment about the lion and the lamb
lying down together. Many still think
"God tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" is from the Bible, although
Sterne quoted it, without credit. from

LARGE CROWD AT
COTTON MEETING

About so, more or less, Clarendon
County farmers attended the meeting
at the Court House Monday afternoon
to hear the discussion on "hold your
cotton for better prices Capt. w.
q. Davis, Hon. Charlton DuRant and
Mr.. r. &. Thomas made interesting
talks and advised the farmers to make
every effort possible to hold their cot
ton. The proposition was, to arrange
some plan for the farmers to ware
house his cotton. This plan enables
the farmer that is not financially able
to hold his cotton for better prices, to
warehouse it and borrow money on
warehouse receipt. This will give him
chance at the future prospect of
better prices.
The need of cotton warehouses in
convenient reach of all the farmers of
the County was recognized and the
meeting unanimously directed the Of
ficers and directors Of the eighteen
townships organizations of the Cot
ton Association to at once, take up the
matter of building in each township,
at least one warehouse to be placed
in the State Warehouse System.
The Williamsburg plan was discuss
ed and recognized as the only prac-
CiS"i ooiulioti VI SippOl CllS IIlc SOI-
ton Association, and the farmers pre-
sent, agreed to pay ginners Of the
County twenty-five cents per bale for
this purpose, and the Secretary of the
Clarendon County Cotton Association
was directed to at once call all of the
ginncrs Of the County to meeting
and secure their cooperation in the
plan.
1t was unanimously decided to re-
commend 20 every farmer in the Coun-
ty, to plant not more than five acres
of cotton to the plow next year.
The local banks pledged their sup
port of the holding movement upon the
farmers putting in their hands ware
house receipt, and to carry this cotton
as long as they could obtain money tc
do SO, it being pointed out, however
that those who were able to carry
their own cotton should do so by al
means. and leave the banks free tC
carry those that were unable to finance
their own affairs.
