quart. At soda fountains the same

They're In Every Town.

The following bit OF sarcasm now
going the rounds Of the press is said
to have appeared in Kansas paper:
What we need in every community
is more fellows who will attend 10
other peoples business. The other
people are zoo careless Of their busi-
ness, and overlook too many points.
Besides, they don't know anything
about their own business affairs, any
how. The fellows who devote most CT
their time to other peoples business
are more efficient, and can handle the
other mans business better than he
can handle it himself. They admit
that fact, so it must be so. The fel-
lows who never had bank account
can give the bank president all kinds
of pointers on how to improve his
business. Then there is the man who
can tell the minister just how 70
preach and manage his flock. Very
few editors know how 70 run their
papers but the fellow who has been in
a printing Office but three times in his
life knows all about it. All towns
would be better if they had more
buttinskys on the job. Just because
a man is successful is no sign he
knows how to run his own business.
1t is a paying job, too-this thing of
running other peoples business"

Convalescence From Flu
Edgefeld Chronicle.

Edgefeld Chronicle.
There are just two bad things
about the flu, getting it and getting
rid of it. Having the flu is COM
paratively easy pastime.
l wrote you in my last letter a
few of the simple symptoms of this
disease which everybody is having
these days. When you develop these
symptoms, if you will go to bed and
do what the doctors tells you to do
you will get along fairly we'll. In a
Few days the doctor will dismiss your
case and you will think that all is
we'll. But you will have another think
coming.
You don't really begin to feel bad
with the flu until the doctor dismis-
ses your case and you are supposed
to be we'll. It's the only illness l
know of where a fellow feels worse
after he gets we'll than he felt when
the disease was at it's climax.
When fellow has the flu he's
afraid he's going to and for the
first two or three days after he's up
and getting over it he's sorry he
didn't.
And weak, my, it makes you weak!
Three days Of the flu is worse than
whole month of typhoid fever. There
is as much strength in fellows sys-
tenn after three days of flu as there
is whiskey INA bottle late in the af-
ternoon on a fishing trip.
Why I knew one fellow who had
awfully curly hair when he took the
flu and he got so weak that his hair
didn't have strength enough to stay
curled.
And / was 80 weak that I couldn't

The American Legion yesterday
passed it's goal of 20 posts in South
Carolina when applications from

approved by state headquarters.
Some time ago the state organizing
authorities announced that they ex-

before April / while the Newberry
college post will be chartered as post
No. Il. With several other towns
now in the process Of organization
the legion will now probably reach a
total largely in excess of its expected
>.sauota." South Carolina legion au-
tilorities only permit the organization
of one chapter in each town, the only
exception being the authorization OF
college and university posts. So tha'
practically 20 towns and cities in the
state now have units OF the organ
ization II fourishing condition
making the state the most thoroughly
vovered state in the South.
The Chappells post was organized

NEW FISCAL YEAR
VOTED THIS FALL
Gomptroller General to Audit County
Books-Reports to Be Made
on Fees
Iae State.

I SS SldLS.
Voters throughout the state next
summer will vote on the question Of
changing the fiscal year from July /
to June 80 each year instead of from
January l to December 81, the gen
eral assembly having passed reso-
!ution submitting in referendum the
amendment to the state constitution.
The proposed change was recon-
nended by Governor Cooper and
strongly urged by Rut l.. Osborne,
comptroller general.
Arguments are wholly in favor of
tee change Principal among these IS
that under the constitution now state
officials have to keep their books open
until the very last day of the year,
which almost precludes the possibility
CT preparation OF annual reports in
time to submit them to the general
assembly.
Another reason for the desired
change is that the appropriations each
year are made only for that year and
al state offices, departments and m
stitutions must operate the first two
months of the year without funds un-
til the general appropriation bill Is
passed. This measure is not completed
until the very last night of the gen.
.eral assembly and there is necessarily
much embarrassment because Of lack
Of funds.
Of equal import to the above meas
ure is that empowering the comptrol-
}er general to audit annually the
books of all county officers, and an
appropriation of $4,000 to carry
this act into effect. Heretofore the
comptroller generals office has had
only limited authority or funds on
which to proceed, and many of the
books have not been fully audited for
ten years. 1t is believed such pro-
cedure will not only protect county
officers, but will mean much toward
correcting many errors that have un-
willingly crept into the state tax
hooks.
A third measure directly in line
with the above procedure is that by
Mr.. Gary Of Spartanburg which re-
quires report of all county officers
as to the amount of fees taken in by
each county official. One year ago
the measure was passed through the
house by an overwhelming vote.
When it reached the senate pressure
was brought against the measure by
county officials who do not receive a
fixed salary, and the bill was held up
one year. Some of these officers, 1t
is contended, receive often as much
as $4,000 or $4,000 year from
fees, while officers whose salaries are
designated get around $4,000, but
who have just as many duties to per-
form.
In its final form the Gray measure
leaves the report to the majority of
the county delegation. Should the
majority of the delegation vote to al
low the people to know how much
the county officers take in, the people
will then be Informed.

NATURE IN A RACE.
Violence of Typhoon Is Almost
Beyond Belief.
Writer Vividiy Describes Scene When
Great Windstorm Wrought Havoc
In Harbor of Hong Kong
Boats Piled or Shore.

VI had been anxious to see a
typhoon," says Edwin Tarrisse, who
has spent some years in the East, land
had my wish gratified in Hong Kong
more than once. The strength of the
wind at such times is greater than one
would have thought possible. Ii whirls
ships helplessly adrift from the firm
est mornings and with sudden blast
takes away the corners of houses and
sends projecting verandas flying
across the street.
During the night of one gale the
residents for the most part shut them
selves closely in their houses. careful
ly securing their doors and windows,
and so remained with constant appre-
hension and dread lest the dwelling
should be swept away and themselves
be entombed in the ruins.
"Once, while the storm was at Its
worst, | ventured down to the Praya
to see the crowd of Chinese boats that
had been blown inshore and piled up
in a mass of wreckage just below the
color. and the wind caught up the
crested waves and sent them in long,
white streaks of vapor across the
scene, through which the dismantled
ships were dimly deserted drifting
from their moorings.
1.-THE heavy, stone-faced wall Of the
Praya had given way, and the great
granite blocks had been washed in
upon the road. Half-blnded by the
waves as they leaped over the road
and dashed in angry foam against the
houses, and butfeted by the wind, l
made slow Roadway to the east END
of the settlement. where number or
foreigners were attempting to rescue
two women from a small Chinese boat.
I'VE had to cling to the lamp posts
and stanchons and seek shelter
against the dOOrwayS and walls. Adj
vantage was taken of a slight lull in
the storm to fire off rockets, but these
were driven back like feathers against
the houses. Then, long lifeboats were
dragged to the pier. but the first was
broken and disabled the moment Ii
touched the water. while the second
met a like fate and its gallant crew
were pitched out into the sea.
I'm short, every effort proved abor-
tive. and as darkness set In the un-
happy women and their boat were re-
luctantly abandoned to their fate.
"Next morning. the whole length OF
the Praya presented a scene of wreck
age and desolation. Many Of the Chi
nese, Notwithstanding their shrewd-
ness in predicting storms. had been
taken quite unawares and hence the
fearful sacrifice Of life and the loss
Of property which ensued."

Where Old Jewelry Goes.

The United States assay office at
New York has recently received much
gold and silver in queer articles Tor
conversion to bullion or coin.
The charges for converting gold ana
silver are less than those made by any
private company. which circumstance
brings to the assay Office dealers in
precious metals. pawnbrOkers. jewel
ers. gold and silver producers and the
banks. It is no unusual sight to see
a dealer bring in lot of jewelry made
up of a gold mesh bag. brooches. scarf
pins and rings. This is weighed In
bulk and a receipt given which IN
clues no statement Of value. All the
articles are melted as whole. and
the owner given the privilege OF re-
ceiving in payment gold or silver bull
lion or cash.
Some time ago the executrix OF an
estate sent a silver chandelier Of enor-
nous proportions. but hopelessly out

Whales Not Deep Divers.

sound" descend to enormous depths
In the ocean. and although 1t has been
estimated that the larger whales com
monty dive to a depth of almost two
thirds Of a mile, yet member OF all
antarctic expedition challenges these
statements and AYERS that about 3OO
feet is the maximum depth to which
whale can dive, says the Sun and New
York Herald. He bases his statement
partly on the fact that the fish on
which they feed and to obtain which
they are accustomed to sound. dweii
near the surface. and partly on the
fact that at the depth of LOCO yards
or more the pressure is so great that
they could not Withstand 1t, and that
their muscular strength is not sum
