STEAMSHIP SUNK
EARLY TODAY

NEW YORK, July 12.-The steam
ship lake Frampton, owned by the
United States Shipping Board, bound
from Norfolk to New York, was sunk
early today off Atlantic City, New
Jersey, after it had collided with the
Steamship Comus, according to WIRE
less messages reported to the Naval
Communication office here.
The Comus also was damaged and
anchored until after daylight but was
expected to proceed to some port to-
day. Three of the crew of the Lake
Frampton are missing.
The Lake Frampton vessel of
1900 tons, was operated by the West
Indies Steamship Company.

Today marks the beginning of the
realization of an ambition we have
long cherished-the time when we
could put on the full leased wire serv-
ice of the Associated Press. This
means the same leased day service
that goes to Columbia, Spartanburg,
Greenville, Charleston, Atlanta and
Anderson comes to us. The same tick of
the instrument gives it to US also, in
TACT, we get exactly what they get,
and at the same time, six days in the
week. The telegraph instrument has
already been installed and the Associ-
ated Press operator is here. The Times
today carries the news, the full serv-
ice for the first time. That I'VE are
proud of this achievement goes with
out saying. The loyal support that
The Times has received has emboldep
us to make this move. We feel that
the best is none too good for the peo-
pie of Union and Union County. It
has been a belief with US that small.
clean newspaper, one that gave the
news, with as little superfous matter
as possible would not only receive sup
port but is really the coming paper
of the day. The large, cumbersome,
padded newspaper is not ready by
any single subscriber. The average
large daily, carrying thirty of forty
pages would require a weeks time to
be read carefully. Three or four
pages on such paper give all
the news; the other pages are but fill
ers for advertisements. This is the
way it appears to us; and we have the
nerve to put our theory in practice.
We intend to pack The Times with
news, and have as little padding as
possible. We believe such paper
will appeal to nine-tenths of the read
ing public. In this great forward step
we have made we have no fear. The
loyal support of the people of Union
County and of the business men of
Union given us in the past gives US
assurance of the same loyal support
in this step we have taken. We feel
that you will endorse our efforts to
put Union County on the map.

able CROP These two problems are
not the only ones, but are the two
matters 8at need first to lie correctly
settled. The South, long chained to
the chariot wheels of poverty, has
been enriching the world The awak-
ening has come and the day of the
South's opportunity is here. The cam
paign to be carried on throughout the
state beginning July Is, has been
planned by an arrangement between
the Cotton Association, the Ware
house Commission and Clemson Col
lege Extension Service. In the party
to campaign the state will be represen-
tatives of the Cotton Association, the
Warehouse Commission, the U. S.
Department of Agriculture and Glenn
son College. 1t is planned, so soon as
the proper warehousing is provided
and the proper grading system is in
augurated to take up the question of
direct marketing. The movement
should appeal net only to the farmer
but to the merchant, banker and pro-
fessional man as well. Tt is a great
movement, and means the commercial
independence of the South. 1t is only
the selfish, short-sighted man who can
see no need of this great movement.
Whether he sees or not, it is fact
that a real, far-reaching revolution is
here and here to stay.

MONDAY, JULY IL, 1920

Today we begin with the full leased
wire Associated Press service. This
move we have been contemplating fol
some time, and gives The Times very
much greater news service that here
tofore. Mr.. Gable, of Charleston, is
the operator sent us by the Associ-
ated Press, and he arrived in Union
yesterday While the service is ex-
pensive, we feel that the support of
Union and Union County have given
us merits the best, and warrants the
success of this move on our part.

later reported by wireless that Cap
tain Powers and the surviving mem
bers OF the crew Of the Lake Tramp
ton were on aboard.
The Comus apparently suffered lit
tie damage as she notified the coast
guard that assistance was not needed.
Little could be learned as to the
cause of the collision, but it is be-
lieved that it wac due to the haze
which made navigation hazardous in
the early morning hours.
The Lake Frampton, steel steam
er, was in ballast. She carried a crew
of 81 men.

A meeting of The Times Cores
pondents' Club was held Saturday
and the first Saturday in August was
chosen as the day for our annual out
ing. 1t was at first decided that we
would make a trip to the mountains
that day, but this idea was soon aban-
doned for one suggested by member
of the club. 1t was decided unanimous
ly that we make regular booster

Z o'clock that morning, going to San
tue, Carlisle, Whitmire and back to
Union, arriving at Boatman Spring,
8 miles west Of Union, at noon There
a barbecue and fish fry will be await

We publish today an article on page
seven giving further information con-
corning the movement on foot to Sc
cure proper warehousing facilities for
cotton and cotton grader for each
county in the cotton producing coun-
ties of the state. Three big meetings
are scheduled for this county. one at
Santuc, Union and Jonesville, and at
these meetings there will be men of
reputation as speakers to deliver ad-
dresses. At the meeting plans will
be made to carry the movement into
every nook and corner of the county.
You will find on page seven full
statement of the plans, and also an
advertisement urging attendance upon
TIE meetings. August End and 3rd
are the days fixed for the meetings
for Union County. The visiting speak
ers will be John G. Richards, l.. j.
Browning, w. H. Mills and A. A. Nc
keown. Make your plans to attend
one Of these gatherings. Every man
interested in the prosperity of the
county should attend, particularly
farmers. The farmer too often as
sumes an attitude of Indifference in
matters pertaining to his own welfare.
He should be more alive to his orpor-
tuniIies. This movement is being pro-
jected by the u. S. Department of Ae-
r'culture, Clemson College and the
American Cotton Association, and has
tremendous possibilities for helping
the county.

The boil weevil has no terrors for
the diversified farming program. In
deed the coming of the boil weevil
may be blessing in disguise, it will
be if it compels more diversifcation.
A monument has been erected to the
boil wecvil in Alabama, if reports be
true. The thing that was regarded as
a great evil, proved to be beneficial
influence lin that it compelled the
farmers to diversity, came to be re-
garded as a great blessing 1t is bet
ter, however, to get into diversified
farming before being whipped into it.
Better go in having some choice as
to the manner Of going, than to be
driven in by stern necessity.

COAL QUESTION
HALTS CONFERENCE

SPA BELGIUM, July 12.-The Ger
man-Allied conference was brought
to temporary halt this morning by
the coal question:. The Allied Pre-
miers, who met at 1890 o'clock to
discuss the German reparations pro-
position and the question of priority
in coal heliveriers from Germany
were unable to finish their work in
time for the general conference to
sit at 11:30 o'clock, the hour pre-
viously fixed.
Chancellor Fehrenbach and his col
leagues, who had arrived with q
numerous staff were informed in the
ante-room by the Secretary of the
conference.

rate of II miles an hour for the days
run. This itinerary may be changed
later The correspondents, in count,
ing up the automobiles available
found,that including the Editors
about Is cars could be mustered for
the trip and there are more, probably,
that can be had. Each correspondent
who can furnish a car, is asked to do
so. Those not in a position to do this
will be provided for here on the morn
ing Of the trip. I want every CORES
pondent to go on this trip. No matter
whether you write regularly or only
occasionally, come on and go with us.
Correspondents who furnish car
will be allowed to take any guests
that they may desire to take, the only
provision being that one must be a
correspondent who has no car. I am
hoping that we may have not less than
100 participants in the trip. Twenty
cars, each carrying five persons will
make the hundred. If there are any
more it will be all the better. But we
must leave Union at o'clock in the
morning to make the full round of it.
Each correspondent will bring lunch,
but The Times will provide the fish
fry and barbecue. I will be glad to
hear from each correspondent per-
sonally, stating that you expect to
go, and also whether you can furnish
a car, and, if so, how many you can
accommodate. l think we can make
this day of real recreation and that
The Times Correspondents Club will
be made stronger and better.

The cotton crop of the South
amounts to more than two billion dol
lars annually, and is the principle
crop. Marketing this chop is, there
fore, one of the great problems of
all the people living in the cotton
belt. Not only the farmer but men
of all other occupations in the South
are concerned in the problem. To
solve the marketing problem state
wide campaign is being made to secure
sufficient warehouse space and to

CATHOLIC LADIES ENTER.
TANNED AT KNOWLES RANCH

A jolly party of ladies gathered at
the Busy Drug Store Thursday after
noon and boarded hay rack for a
drive to the ranch home of r. C.
Knowles, up Ohio Greek way. They
were members of the Altar Society Of
the Catholic church and had been in
vited by Mrs. Knowles to spend the
afternoon as her guests. The bright,
sunshiny winter day made the ride a
pleasant one and all too short. After
an enjoyable social time with their
hostess, the ladies returned to town
via the hayrack route with pleasant
memories Of the first meeting of the
Society held during the new year. A
meeting has been planned in the very
near future to be held at the Rectory,
at which time officers for the coming
year will be elected and the program
for the years work outlined. The
past year has been very successful
one, both financially and socially and
it is being hoped that the meetings
Of the society every two weeks will be
continued.

From the beginning of his under

The reasons for this are:

Breathlessness is caused by insult

ATTRACTIVE TABLE SETTING
MAKES MEAL PLEASANT

"One of the most commonly accept
ed reasons for the existing method Of
laying table and serving" says Miss
Florence Redifer, of the Home Econo-
mics Department of the State Agri-
cultural College at Fort Collins, sis
the accompanying satisfaction which
one has in the realization that he is
not different from other people and
he knows how Someone has express
sed this idea very aptly in the follow
ing: Etiquette is the name given, to
the rules of society, and society is q
game which all men play. II you
play it well, you win; If you play it
i'll, you lose. The prize is a certain
sort of happiness without which no
human being is ever satisfied.
But there is o more potent reason
than the above for artistic table SER
vice, one far more reaching and basic
than the desire to please and be pleas
ing-0ne which is conductive to better
health for the family.
1--WE all know how much better a
meal tastes, no matter how simple,
when served with care and thought
than if served in a haphazard and
hurried manner. And, why? Diges-
ton in the mouth and also the STAN,
ach is stimulated physically as well az
in other ways and this means that the
odor and sight Of food stimulates the
appetite. It is very apparent then
that well-laid table with clean, sim
pie and attractive service would re-
suit in a greater enjoyment of the
meal and an easier digestion Of food.

TRYING TO SQUARE HIMSELF

During the recent holidays, a GER
tain young man Gland sakes, no! we
can't tell his name) was invited to q
dinner party at the home of his "best
girl" At the dinner table he was Civ
en- place opposite the platter on
which reposed the bird Of honor-a
deliciously roasted goose. The lady
Of the house took a seat on the young
mans left and as they all sat down,
the young man, wishing to say some
thing funny, remarked: gracious! do
! have to sit SO close to the goose? Il
it safe?" Scarcely had he made the
remark, when it occurred to him that
the words might be misconstructed by
his hostess, and wishing to place him
self in right light, hurriedly said in
. most apologetic tone: II meant the
roast goose on the table.
