HOUSEKEEPER
NEEDS The VOTE
Ballot Is Necessary to Protect
the Home Under Changed
Conditions.
WOMAN'S VOICE is NEEDED.

Housekeeping today is not what it
used to be.
One hundred years ago our great
grandmOthers spun the cloth and
made the clothes for the family. They
employed the family cobbler for a
week at a time, who made shoes for
the year from leather cured and
tanned on the premises. They baked
the bread, churned the butter, cured
the meat, and made the candles; in
short, housed under their roofs all
the activities that ministered to the
necessities and comforts of the family
Today all these processes are car
ried on outside of the home. The
shoes are made in factories, the
clothes go through the sweatshops,
the meat is cured by big companies,
the bread is made at the bakeries,
and the butter comes from the cream
cries.
Instead of living in houses open on
all sides to the sun, we have the tene-
ment house; instead of water directly
from we'll or spring, we have piped
water; instead of the simple problem
of letting the small amount of gar
bage decay in the sun, We have the
vast problem Of a city's disposal.
All of these matters Of food, clothes,
housing, water and garbage are sub
- l.. 1rNl-
the place of the parents. The question
of regulation Of all Of these matters
so vital to a housekeeper is one of

EXAMINATIONS COMPLETED.

For the past week absolute quiet
has prevailed in both the graded and
high school buildings, for everybody
was passing thru that dreadful semi
annual experience of trying to please
those inquisitive teachers. Examina-
tions have been the order of the week
and yesterday saw the last ghost
walk. . Reports are not available
showing just how many were able to
satisfy satisfactorily the teachers
curiosity to discover just how much
or how little the pupils did know, but
judging from the seriousness of ex-
preston on the faces of usually
beaming boys and girls there is evil
dence that not every one "made a
kiln"

HARVEY D. ORRS
LATEST SUCCESS

Mr.. Harvey D. Orr, the producer
of the Million Dollar Doll in Paris,
which comes to the Opera House
next Monday has won an enviable
for "good shows" The one
thing that he has always been a
stickler for, is to keep faith with the
public, and he has never yet resorted
to the exaggerated un-truths which
are so common in the amusement
business.
This season when he announces
that the "Million Dollar Doll in
Paris" which is the third edition of
this famous play, will be absolutely
new, the theatre goers have every
confidence in his promise, and know
that he will keep his faith with them.
The series of "Doll" shows has
played to over two million people,
and this third edition, is said to far
surpass anything ever offered in this
line of plays.

SOUTH CAROLINA EXCEEDS
QUOTA IN rs MILLION
BAPTIST CAMPAIGN

Columbia, S. c., Jan. 17--The
Baptist rs Million Campaign in
South Carolina, though nominally
closed or completed early in Dec
ember, is still moving toward an ad-
vanced goal. The original amount
sought was $5,50O,0OO, but up to the
present the subscriptions taken since
November 3Oth total more than ST.
100000, and thecanvass is still in
complete in upwards of hundred
churches. If all gifts to missions,
education and benevolences made
since May 1, 1919, the date when
the Campaign really began, were ad-
ded, the total of the South Carolina
Subscription would overtop the SS,-
100000, and the canvass is still in
oversubscription is the largest per
centum increase thus far reported in
the South, this being IS per cent,
with Georgia a close second. 1t is
confidently expected that the full
amount of the subscription will be
realized by. the denomination in cash
during the five year period, and the
promotion plans of the Baptist Gen
eral Board in the State are to be so
prosecuted that for every loss to the
subscription, by death or otherwise
