COUNTY
MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
Will Be Completed in June-Finish-
ing Touches Now Being Put
on the Building

Inc AODeVllle county MemOrlal
Hospital will be ready for occupan-
cy sometime between June Is and
June 80. The finishing touches are
now being put on the building
scarcity of labor being the only fac
tor that is delaying completion.
When finished the building will
not only be an up-to-date and mod
ern hospital but will be architecture
ally one of the handsomest buildings
in Abbeville. 1t is built Of brick and
the specifications call for stucco fin
ish, but it is possible that this will be
omitted. The grounds are ideally To-
Gated, we'll drained and can be easl-
ly beautified.
The first floor of the building is
taken up with offices, reception room,
kitchen, linen closets, dining room,
drug room, bath and three private
rooms. The bottom floor IS the only
level that is not practically complet-
ed and installation Of the pipes for
steam heat is delaying completion
here.
The basement will be used. for the
furnace and one section may be fit
ted up for a kiktchen.
The second floor has four private
rooms, two semi-prlvare rooms,
children's ward, rest room ror nurses,
negro ward two rooms) bath rooms
and linen closets.
On the third floor there is a
white ward, a semi-private room, a
maternity room, scrub room, steril-
izing room, operating room, labora-
tory and X-Ray room.
Each floor leads out onto a large,
roomy veranda, suitable for conva-
lescents. On the second moor there
are two verandas, one of which will
be used for the children.
The hospital will accommodate 35
patients. 1t is planned to have
three or four graduate nurses and
six girls in training. DR.. R. NJ. Rake
straw, of Chester, will be the sur
geon in charge. AS soon as the hospi-
tai is opened he will make two visits
a week to Abbeville and if the work
demands he will make his home in
this city, giving his whole time to
the local hospital.
The hospital plant when completed
will cost about $4,000 and it is es-
timated, with the advance in mate
rails, will represent a va,ue of $780,
10000.
The question of raising sufficient
funds to complete and equip the
hospital has been of urgent moment
since the inception of the idea of a
hospital here. More than once lack
of money has placed the project in
jeopardy. For the most part, how
ever, the people of this city thave
supported the hospital enough to
eep the ball a-rolling.
The people Of the county have
not given the support that the hos
pital management thinks it should
receive from them and to the end
that they may be given an opportu-
nifty to contribute a canvas will be
made throughout the county. This
canvas will be in charge of R. S. Nc
Combs and will begin in the near
future. Any contribution under $50
will be considered as a gift. For
contribution of $50 or more a stock
certificate will be issued.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Next Friday there will be pro-
gram in the high school assembly
room to which parents are cordially
invited. Not only will the program
be full of the Christmas spirit, but we
will also remember at that time that
it is just 800 years ago that the Pill
grim Fathers landed on the shore of
America.
This is report card season and par
ents of high school pupils should ex-
anime them carefully.
Professor O'Shea of the University
of Wisconsin is making a scientific
study of the effect that smoking has
upon the boys of the various high
schools in the state. Full results of
his investigation are not known, but
many of the high schools made two
lists, one of the boys who use tobacco
and one of those who do not. Then
they turned to the records and after
the name of each boy wrote his aver

CARE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS
Leaving Implements to the Mercy of
Weather Expensive Practice

In this day of complicated machin-
cry most farmers probably give little
thought to the care of so simple an
implement as pillow. But more eff
ort has been expended in the slow
process of developing this seeming
ly simple tool than in that of any
other implement on the farm. 1t is
the basic tillage tool, the fundament-
al farm implement, and it is richly
entitled to be properly cared for when
not in use.
Store In Dry Place
When laid by, say the implement
experts, the pillow should, if possible,
be stored in dry place, away from
contact with the ground. In any case
the bright parts should always be
coated with grease to prevent rust.
Once the mould board and share have
become pitted with rust. an efficient
fob of blowing cannot be done until
the corroded Parts again have ac-
CURED a polish by use.
The United States Department of
Agriculture, of course, does not stop
with the pillow in its admonition in
this regard. Harrows, also relatively
simple but tremendously important
implements, are, next to plows, most
generally neglected. Many farmers
who would not neglect an expensive
harvesting machine, say the experts,
are careless as to harrows and other
implements of this type. But these,
also, represent capital invested, and
a larger return is possible if they are
properly cared for at the end of the
season.
If harrows are stored under shed,
the teeth should be supported by
blocks or boards so that they will not
become embedded in the ground. All
accumulation should be removed from
the parts.
The mower should have similar care
