TOY BALLOON INDUSTRY
HAS GROWTH IN OHIO

ASHLAND. Ohio, Sept. 17.-It used
to be that all toy balloons were made
in Europe, largely in Germany.
Today Ohio produces between 30

it is said that the town is up in arms
because it will not come to Allen
dale.
Various methods of pleasing the
people of Allendale have been pro-
posed, it is said, one being that a

Allendale. The State highway COM
mission, it is. stated, will not look
with favor upon changing the route
so as to go through Allendale, as this
would not be a direct route.

vey has been made, but that appears
to be about all the progress that has
been made. Orangeburg has never
cared snap, evidently, about build
ing a road that connects with Bam-
berg. 1t refused to keep up the old
piece of road that has been in use
for years. The people now wonder
if Orangeburg county will be suf-
ficiently interested TO build a new
road.

of the opportunity of viewing the
country from the heights and enjoy

Awakened to the possibility of just
how beautiful and attractive ltailroed
avenue might be made. upon noting
the improvement in its appearance
by the newly finished portion of its
paved walks, the ladies of the upper
portion of this street met at the home
of Mrs. w. P Jones on last Friday
afternoon and organized Block I'M
provement club. 1t is their purpose
to make this portion of the town so
sanitary and attractive that other
residential districts will likewise or
ganize and friendly rivalry bring
about wonderful results. Especially
is it hoped that the lower portion of
Railroad avenue will also have
Block Improvement club so that the
entire street may be beautified.
At this, its initial meeting, no plans
were made other than a decision that
each lady should plant grass between
the copings in front of her home and
that each member shall pay S yearly
dues, this amount being used towards
the upkeep of Simmons cemetery.
Mrs. Jones reported that all the cook
books had been sold; this amount,
together with the proceeds from
rummage sale to be held soon, will be
used for permanent improvements to
the cemetery. Mrs. A. NJ. Brabham
was appointed treasurer and Mes
danes G. F. Hair and G. P. Hooton
are to petition the mayor to use his
influence in securing an electric light
and public water for the use of ceme-
terry. Plants will not grow there un-
less watered and it is planned to be-
gin work on the grounds as soon as
the weather permits.
Meetings will be held monthly and
at the next meeting plans will be per-
fected which have as yet been only
discussed. 1t is hoped and expected
that every lady residing in the con-
fines of this club will join Immediate

ROAD.
Bamberg County Link Completed
Fine Highway for County.

The J. R. Beazley Construction
company, of Norfolk, Va, contrac-
ors building the Savannah-Columbia
highway through Bamberg county,
has completed the construction of the
Bamberg link of the road. The con-
struction force has now been moved
from Bamberg to Norfolk. How
ever a portion of the road equipment
is still here for scraping and shaping
the road from time to time until it
is accepted by the State highway
commission.
The contractor built this road un-
der very unfavorab1e circumstances,
and for this reason it will probably
yet be several months before the
road will be turned over to the coun-
ty by the engineer representing the
State highway commission, Mr.. H..
B. Humbert. When the work was
started, the rains began to pour,
which hindered the work very seri-
ously. Later the drought came on,
and both seasons were not favorable
to highway construction. The grad
ing was carried on rapidly, but the
process of mixing the sand and clay
was hindered first by an excess of
water in the earth and later by the
lack of moisture to make the materi-
ais set properly. The result is
that certain portions of the road are
still rough. This condition will be
remedied by repeated draggings and
shaping until the road becomes hard
and smooth. This will require some
weeks yet. This roughness is es-
pecially noticeable in the portion
from Bamberg to Edisto river.
The general condition of the road,
however, is good, and it is now pos
sible, even before the road has been
properly smoothed, to run an auto
mobile from Bamberg to Buford's
bridge on one speed, excepting, of
course, the bridges to be crossed.
One portion of the road, that from
Little Satkehatchie to Big Sake
hatch:e river, is as fine piece of
highway as there is in the country.
This stretch extends for several
miles, and it is practically impossible
to refrain from breaking the speed
laws of the State when one is going
over it in car. When this portion
of the road was being built, the
weather conditions were ideal. Mr..
Humbert states that the entire dis
tance of the highway through the
county should be equally as good
as this portion when the road has
been accepted by the commission.
The terms of the contract for the
construction of the road provides
ludI lllG lOdu UO 4lo ot1i.cthSu ~
the contractor for specified time, in
order that the strength of the con-
struction may be properly tested.
Now that this link of an import
ant highway has been completed, :ho
people of the county are interested
in the construction of links in the
adjoining counties of Orangeburg
and Allendale. 1t is understood that
the Allendale authorities have had
preliminary survey made, and that
funds have been arranged for for the
construction of the highway through
Allendale county. However, while
no public announcement has been
made to this effect, it is also under
stood that considerable opposition
has developed to the building of the
highway as the route has been map
ped out. This route puts the road |
several miles from Allendale, and |
