REALTORS WARNED TO
PAY FULL INCOME TAX

Pointing out that these are bononza
DAYS for real estate owners in view
of the general advance of rents and
sales prices, the Bureau OF Internal
Revenue, in a statement issued today
calls the attention of District realty
owners to the fact that they must be
diligent to see that full income tax is
paid on all rents and profits from
sales.
Every income tax blank" it is de-
clared, has a special space set apart
for reporting rents received and the
Government has a sharp eye this
spring"
To those who sold realty during
1919 the Internal Revenue Bureau has
this to say: THE higher prices OF
1919 induced many landlords to sell all
or part Of their property, and general
ly at substantial gains. All such
gains are income, and must be figured
out in black and white on the annual
return" .'

SALT THE FLEAS

A great many inquiries are reach
ing the Bureau of Entomology, Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.
for methods of controlling fleas. The
work of the department has shown,
fortunately, that the best m AIS Of
controlling f1eas in most instances is
very simple. Fleas usually originate
in the basement of the house, or in
some covered place such as wood
sheds and stables, to which hogs, dogs
or other such animals have access.
The remedy is to give the basement,
shed, or other breeding place a
thorough cleaning, burn the litter,
and then sprinkle the floor or ground
in the building shed with common
salt. The salt should be sprinkled
thickly enough almost to cover the
ground and should then be wet down
with water, the specialists say. 1t
should not be wet sufficiently to
cause it to run however. If there are
about the place any houses, cribs, or
the like built on piles SO that hogs
and other animals can go under them,
salt should be applied there. Gen
orally speaking, it is fairly easy to

Goose Greek Church, originally own
ed by Hon. Arthur Middleton, one Of
the "Signers" of the Declaration Of
independence.
A tablet to his memory and others
OF the Middleton family, is one the
walls of this quaint old church.
4 Over the chancel is the Arms of
the British, and the story is that DUR
ing the Revolutionary War, the Brit
ish officers stabbed their horses in the
churches, but upon entering this
church and seeing the Arms of Eng
land, they respected the edifce, and
placed their horses elsewhere.
Monday water trip was given
the members Of the Society. Mr..
Ravenel was fortunate to secure a
permit allowing the party to land at
Fort Sumpter, great concession
from the Government.
This Fort is said to have been ''the
most bombarded fort in the world"
When in the hands of the Confed-
crates, it withstood a bombardment
of 5S5 days by the Federals.
In the afternoon of Monday, the
ceremonies commemorative of the
Four Hundredth Anniversary of the
birth Of Admiral Gaspard de Coligny,
was held in the Hall of the South
Carolina Society.
Hon. Thomas Wright Bacot, Pre-
sident of the Huguenot Society Of
South Carolina presided.
Introducing Count v. de Wurbiki,
of the French High Commission at
Washington, who gave US a fine adj
dress.
Other speakers were: DR.. VIM. H.
de Beaufort, as representative of
Queen Wilhelmina, Rev. DIR. Duffield,
D. D., of New York City. and many
others; among them Col. VIM. Gas
pard de Coligny, descendant of the
Admiraps an honorary member of
the Huguenot Society of South Caro-
lima and representing the family of
Coligny.
Mr.. Bacot read to the assembled
company a cablegram written in
French, and then gave the transla-
ton. It was from Queen Wilhelmina
greeting to the Huguenot Society of
South Carolina, mentioning "she was
particularly interested in this cele-
bration, because she was a direct de-
scendant of the one so honored ;
Louise de Coligny, the Admiral's
daughter, having married William
prince of Orange she being descen-
ded from this union"
The motion was made, seconded,
and unanimously carried by a rising
vote, that Queen Wilhelmina of the
Netherlands should be made an hon
orary member of the Huguenot So
ciety of South Carolina.
A large and elegant reception, was
given the Society, Monday evening,
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ravenel,
Secretary of the Society.

OUTDOOR ELECTRIC
LIGHTS FOR THE FARM

The first thing one thinks of in
connection with electricity on the
farm is light in the house and
barns, and yet farmers who have
installed electricity find that one
of the most useful lights on their
places is an outside light.
In great many instances farm
buildings are so arranged that
single light can be used to illum-
mate all the ground between the
house and the barns. Quite gen.
orally it is found that windmill
tower, the peak of the roof of one
OF the buildings, or other ready
made support offers the best loca-
ton for the light. An enamelled
reflector is used, which insures
the even and strong distribution
of all of the light from the lamp
over the area where it is needed.
Switches to control the light are
placed both in the house and in
the barn, that is, the light is wired
so that it can be turned on or off
from either the house or the barn.
1t is this feature which makes this
particular light so valuable to the
farmer. He drives into the barn
yard at night with the lights of
his car turned ON, switches on the
yard light when he gets out to
open the garage doors, and thus is
able to walk up to the house over
a path that he can see all the way.
1t the season demands that he get
up before dawn or if there is a
sudden necessity for his going to
the barn in the middle of the night
he does not have to find and light
a lantern. A touch of button
and the whole barnyard is flood
Jed with light. Powerful lights

THE HUcUENor CELEBRATION

Invitations were received by the
members of the Huguenot Society of
South Carolina, to attend a celebra-
tion in honor of Admiral Gaspard de
Coiigny, Huguenot Martyr. being the
four hundredth anniversary of his
birth, beginning April 10th through
18th.
Three of the members if this So
ciety in Marietta decided to accept
the invitation, Miss Olive E.. Faw.
Miss Marion E. King and Mrs. F. K.
Pratt.
Arriving inCharleston on the morn
ing of the 10th, they repaired to the
office of Mr.. Daniel Ravenel, secre-
tary of the Society, and were given
their badges and programs.
They were instructed to rendez-
'vous at the Hall Of the South Caro-
lima Society at three o'clock, where
they were taken in automobiles to
the famous Magnolia Gardens. These
gardens are undoubtedly the most
beautiful of their kind.
With broad winding walks, border
ed with the most gorgeous bloom of
Azaleas, from deepest crimson to the
purest white; immense live-oak trees
festooned with the graceful flowers
of the lilac, blue and white Wistaria,
mingled with the fragrant yellow Jas
mine; long sprays of the Lady Bank
STA roses; and over all the Gray Moss
waving in the breeze, adding yelled
beauty to the scene; to one standing
upon the Gothic bridge, spanning the
lake land seeing the reflection of all
this beautiful color in it's quiet
waters, it seemed a place indeed of
enchantment.
The party was then taken back to
the City, and out to the Country
Club, where they were delightfully."-
entertained, and delicious refresh
ments served, most heartily enjoyed,
after the long ride in the fresh air.
The next day being Sunday, serv-
ices were held in the old Huguenot
church, the only one in America.
The pastor of the church Mr. Vur-
pilot, conducted the services, and the
sermon was delivered by the Rev.
Howard Dufield, D. D., L. L. D., of
New York City: a most eloquent ad-
dress, as some one remarked every
sentence polished gen."
DR. Duffield first expressed his APP
probation cat the opportunity that
was his to speak in the walls of the
ancient chruch, comprised about by
SO many mute witnesses Of the faith
courage and devotion of it's found
ers, whose heritage to their descen-
dants is the same qualities that they
possessed and manifested.
''It is a proud heritage" he said,
to feel kinship, not only because
those present were fellows in being
followers of the Lord, but because of
the blood connection of the same an
cestry."
LA Cevenole," the Huguenot
hymn was sung for the first time in
America at this service, having been
translated and arranged to the music
by Mr.. Florian Vurpillot the pastor
of the Huguenot chruch.
In the afternoon the members
again met at the South Carolina Hall
and were taken to the old Goose
Greek church erected in I'LL, sixteen
miles from Charleston, where serv-
ice is held once year to retain the
holdings of the chruch.
Afterwards ''tea" was given them
by Mr.. and Mrs. Parsons at their
beautiful home "The Oaks near
