Only Two Counties, OcOnce and Lee,
Have Used AllOtmcntS.

Clumbia, Aug. Especial: Three
hundred and seventy-four free schol-
arships, amounting to $30,503, have
been awarded this year in South
Carolina by the National War Work
Council OF the Young Mems Chris
tian Association.
At the first OF the year this work
began, and total Of $4,000 was al
lotted TO this State for the education
OF ex-servce men, both races.
These scholarship men are in nearly
all schools In the State and in some
far beyond It's borders, studying in
nearly all professions and callings.
Monthly reports from the school
back to the Columbia Y. NJ. C. A.
Office show that earnest work is
baing done, and good grades made
by most OF the men. Clemson Col
lege has the largest number, and
agriculture has been favorite
study
The remaining $4,000 is avail
able through county committees for
fall and spring terms. 192O-21, but
must be awarded by the end OF this
calender year. Counties which do
not use their allotments by Septem-
Der will lose their amounts, which

counties, unless assurance is given

mittecs will please take notice.

NEW FEATURE AT WINTHROP.
Supt. Palmer Will Give Course OF
Lectures Next Year.
(Spartanburg Herald.)

BY invitation Of Dr.. D. b. john
son, president Of Winthrop College,
General superintendent Leon G.
Palmer, Of the South Carolina Sun
day School Association, will give a
course Of lectures on the principles
and methods Of religious education,
with special reference to the Sunday
school, at the summer school of Win
throp College next year.
1t is expected that this series will
be full course, extending through
out the six weeks summer school, on
the same basis as other professional
course. Similar courses have been
given by superintendent Palmer at
the University Of Alabama and the
Alabama Polytechnic Institute, it Is
stated, and the State Department of
Education Of Alabama gave full
credit for these courses toward the
extension Of teachers certificates.
On account Of the very large en-
rollment at the Winthrop College
summer school. which is said to have
been approximately 1900 this sum-
mer. it is believed that this feature
next year will be Of marked helful-
ness in providing the public school
teachers Of the State with definite
training in Sunday school work, thus
enabling them to be Of larger SER
vice to their communities.

CENSUS AND REPRESENTATION.
Some States Will Lose II No Provi.
\SiOn Made for Other Increases.

Washington, July 2S.--Unless the
membership OF the House Of Repre-
sentativcs Is increased from 49, 10
at least 800, to meet the incl aSed
population shown by the 1920 cen
sus ten Statcs will lose one or more
Representatives, according to Repre-
sentative Sicgcl, OF New York, chair
man of the census committee, which
will frame the new appOrtiOnmcnt
bill. Those States are Indiana, Iowa
and Missouri, which will lose two
Congressman each. and Illinois. Ken
tucky, Maine. Maryland, Nebraska.
Vermont and Virginia, which will
lose one Congressman each.
Mr.. Sicgel explains that If the
House membership is retained at its
present figure 1t will be necessary to
increase the population basis in each
Congressional District beyond the
1000. or major portion thereof,
now fixed. If this is done, he says,
the ten states named will lose one
or more Of the present districts be-
cause their populations have not IN
creased in proportion to those OF
other States.
On the basis Of the estimated pop
nlation of lO6. 100000 for the whole
country in l920---an increase Of ap-
proximaieiy 100000 in ten years
Mr.. Seigel says 6H or 66 new seats
in the House must be created II the
ten States named are to hold their
present numerical representations.
While precedent warrants the in
crease, Mr.. Seigcl declares. there Is
strong opposition to 1t on the part Of
some OF the Representatives, while
others favor q reduction to as few rs
800 members.
MIR. Scigel expects the work of
framing the new apportionment bill
in accord with the new population to
begin with the reconvening Of Con-
gress in December. and he antici-
pates that the measure will be passed
early in 1924.
Every decade since 1890. with the
single exception Of 1910, the House
membership has been enlarged to
keep pace with the growing popula-
tiOn. Now the House floor is crowd
ed when all members are present;
seats nearly tlll the chamber; the old
individual desks have been discard
ed, and an increase Of membership
probably will have to be solved by
narrowing the width Of the seats.
Ten years ago the House member
ship was increased from 391 to i3I
on the basis OF a population Of 81.
972,26G, and the only exception to
such a procedure occurred in 1910,
when ten congressman were knocked
out by the apportiOnment. the mem
bership being fixed at 232 after hay
ing been 242 for ten years.
The last apportionmcnt kept in
tact the numerical strength Of all
State delegations, besides providing
for certain increases. but even then
several Congressional Districts fell
short OF the maximum basis Of 81 |, ;.

But this year both major parties
again have seJtcted as their standard
bearers boys who came from the soil;
who lived through their teens in tiny
villages: who toiled on the land
from early morning to summers

old-fashioncd tradition.
The era that produced them is
passing. as the youth OF the farms
respond to the alluring call of the
cities. They are OF the old-fashioned
breed whose careers inspired genera
tions OF boys to go forth likewise
and hunt and seize opportunity afar

NEW YORK's BIG UNDERTAKING.
Dredging East River Will Cost
About %75,OOO,OOO.

New York, July 28.-Death by
drowning or dynamite--these are
the chief among the dangers facing
the men who are dredging the East
river to Long Island sound that
New York may have another deep
sea passage to the Atlantic.
How this undertaking, which will
require fifteen to twenty years and
an expenditure Of $5j.000.O0O to|
100000 900 Is being carried on was
It'd here to day by officials OF the
dredging company, which is doing
tho work.
=" Most Of the work must be done
during the sl3Ck water period at the
change Of Hdes and, as there is
generally from 800 to 1000 pounds
of dynamite aboard each drill boat
the danger Of being rammed by
passing craft and sent to the bottom
is complicated with the possibility
Of being blown into the air,"i one
official said.
'In Hell Gate we are demolishing
Frying Pan reef which is 4S0 feet
by $50 feet. From eight to ten
months will be required to complete
this task. A drill boat is being
warped cross 1t in parallel paths
thirty feet apart. drilling holes into
which from 100 to $50 pounds OF
dynamite Is packed and exploded.
A dipper dredge following the drill
boat, loads the blasted rock into
scows for dumping irto holes seven
! ty-flve feet deep or more in the river.
This levelng Of the river bottom re-
moves the source Of cddies, smooth
ing the current.
POT Rock, another reef in He'll
Gate, will be destroyed next Be-
cause Of treacherous currents for
which 1T is responsible. Pot Rock is
known as the wickedcst spot in
American waters.
The longest slack water period
registered in Hell Gate during the
last forty years was twenty-three
minutes. 1t is within that slack
period that drilling points mus, be
'ocated, charges planted and fired
