excused himself IL he failed to play
up to my idea Of what he should
do. / gave him another chance next
day when we were playing a double
header. At the end OF the first game
he stated he was not able to go any
further and that he would have TO
return to the hotel. ! gave him that
permission and told him I would see
him when We got back that evening.
Instead Of finding him there. ! dis
covered that he had left for Wash
ington.

THE next I heard from him was
from his home. He claimed that he
left for Washington to get his
clothes and then went home to con-
suit his own physician. and that he
would not return as he was unable
TO play, saying that he hurt him
self in the first game he played for
us. This was not true, for he told
me that he was not able to do jus
tice to himself on account Of being
sick
Il do not know what his claim was
for, as / have not as Vet heard from
the commission. Why. I never even
discussed salary with him as / did
not have a chance TO do 80.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.

Miss Mufret came running across the
dewy grass, for It was still early morn
ing, you know.
"Oh, Little Miss Muffet, where IL your
tuffet?" asked Puss Junior.
"Oh, naughty big spider has
sat down beside her and frightened
Miss Muffet away" sang little Boy Blue
But the little girl never stopped. She
kept on running until she looked like O
little butterfly at the other end Of the
meadow. And then the Big Black Spider,
who sat down beside her, crawled up and
said:

You'll find enough to eat today;

NY UNDERTAKES
ALTH CRUSADE
s isis as Most Deadly
NSceives First Attention.

according to DR.. Herman G. Morgan,
secretary of the city board of health, a
campaign against tuberculosis is to be
started by the board within the next few
days.
The establishment Of five night clinics
some time ago, whers patients might go
and get treatment, DR.. Morgan said, was
the first step in this campaign.
There are between 400 and 500 deaths
year in Indianapolis caused from tuber-
culosis, Dr.. Morgan said. which IS the
largest toll taken by any disease.
Nurses who will be appointed to posi-
tons with the FIVE newly established
night clinics will make a canvass Of the
distdicts into which the city will be d.
vided, DR.. Morgan said.
They will make a survey of the homes
IN which there are cases of tuberculosis
and lessons in personal and home hygiene
and sanitation will be given, in an effort
to stop the spread Of the disease.
People who are in such financial
straits that they think they can not
spare the time duringg the day to go
to physician for proper treatment are
now given the opportunity To get treat
ment at night, and it is their duty rs
well as to their personal interest to do
Whis, DR.. Morgan said.
If the spread Of tuberculosis can be
stopped the mortality rate for IndiaL-
apolis can be reduced to half that OF
the present time, according to statistics.
Or. Morgan said the next most dreaded
disease and the one that comes next TO
tuberculosis in deaths are the diseases
OF the heart and srterial system.
These diseases are caused from ore,
mental exertion with no physical exer-
else, DR.. Morgan said.
Plans are now under way to start a
campaign against these diseases By edu-
eating the people to the Importance OF
rest and proper exercise and the danger
of over worry.

POLICE SEARCH
FOR CRIMINALS
Patrolmen Ordered to Shoot Every
Man Who Attempts to
Escape.

New York, Dec 21.-Armcd with
repeating rifles, 20 sharpshooters of
the New York police force tonight
secured the city in automobiles in a
hunt for bandits.
Each sharpshooter, picked man
fro mthe police rife squad, was ac-
companied by three detectives and a
uniformed patrolman. Under orders
to shoot every suspect who attempted
to escape them the men searched the
highways and byways of the city
throughout the night.
Other drastic measures to curb
New York's crime wave which today
swept beyond the city's border into
nearby New Jersey towns were
launched by police officials and
judges. Removal of Police Commits
sioner Enright was proposed in a
resolution introduced at a meeting
of the board Of aldermen. The reso-
luton was tabled, however. Similar
action was taken on resolution to
appoint a special committee to inves-
tigate the police department and re-
port to Govcrnor-elect Miller and on
another to request the police commits
sioner to furnish the board with in
formation concerning all arrests
made in New York city during 1920.
An increase in the police force of
7G9 men was authorized by the
board of estimate and in order to
provide funds for paying the extra
patrolmen an issue of special reve-
nue. bonds in 1921 was approved.
Judge Mcintyre Of the court of gen
eral sessions ordered $50 persons
now on bail Of from 81, 500 to $4,000
on robbery charges to appear tomor-
row when he said their balls will be
increased. In five cases today men
previously released on bail for SINH
lar charges were held in $4,000
each.

BRADRAM HOG farm
SALE NEXT TUESDAY
Forty-two SoJs and Open Gilts Will
BE AuctiOned OG-Clarendon
Farmers Should Stock
Up Now.

Next Tuesday, DECEMBER 28th, the
Bradham Duroc Farm will hold their
second sale of the year At IL O'Clock
a Barbecue Dinner will be served to all
the out -of-town people attending the
sale. AT | o'clock Auctioneers Co,
II. J.. lglehart Of Elizabethtown, Ky,
and Col. f. ID. Hengst of Louisville
Ky, will commence the sale of 42 Bred
Sows and Open Gilts. These ;ow;
have been bred to champion Doars
such as Jacks Friend 7th and Fancy
Orion Chief, both of which are from
prlzc-wlnning stock and both Of these
boars have taken many ribbons them
selves.
The Bradham Duroc Farm is known
ali over the South for the quality of
the hogs it is turning out. The Duroc
hog is on a pedestal when it comes to
stamina and meat Many packing
houses have demonstrated the quality
of the Duroc meat over other breeds
of hogs and the cost per pound is be-
yond comparison.
Clarendon with it's thousands of
acres Of fertile land is an ideal county
for hog production. It's nearness to
the big markets of the South is an
other item in its favor So we be-
lleVe that 1T would be a great thing
for our farmers to purchase these
Durocs and start in with few sows.
1t is only a 'question of short time
until the increase would justify the
investment.
On account Of the low price of cot
ton and to give the farmers chance
who really want to buy these hogs
the management of The Duroc Farm
are offering these hogs on the follow
mg terms: 10 per cent cash and a
note for the balance due October 1st.,
1921. TO those who pay all cash a
discount Of per cent will be given.
With these terms we cannot see how
it would be possible to pass up this
opportunity of securing pure bred
prize winning animals.
We hope to see large attendance
of our Clarendon farmers at this sale
on next Tuesday, December 2Sth at
1 o'clock p. m.

STATE WAREHOUSES;
FULL OF COTTON

More cotton is stored in state
warehouses over the state now than
in any previous time in the history
of South Carolina, the total number
of bales being $4,000 yesterday, ac-
cording to j. Clifton Rivers, state
warehouse commissioner.
The system no whas over 800 ware
houses scattered over South Caro-
lima and these are filled to capacity
Each day several thousand bales are
added to the system while, of course
some are taken out by sales, but the
number being sold is small. The
previous record for the state system
was $4,000 bales as compared with
144,O
Mr.. Rivers said yesterday that he
had urged farmers to establish more
warehouses all during the summer
and the campaign had been very sue
cessful, yet many more of the houses
are needed to care 70 rthe cotton.
During the year the state ware
houses will have handled over $780,
600 bales of cotton, Mr.. Rivers csti-
mates. Monday the receipts from
the various houses went above 1000
Some days the receipts exceed this
amount
