Capital Stock Doubled
National Bank of South Caro-
Ina Increased to s400, 600

Sumter has grown steadily in the
past years IN citizens, and in wealth,
her progress has always been
paralle1ed by the growth of her flnar1-.
|cial institutions. Probably one OF the
most fIourishing institutions in this
territory today is the National Banko OF
South Carolina, which has just re-
|cently announced that the capital
stock has been increased to $500, geo
and the surplus to 100000 thus
making an 100000 bank for Sumter.
This bank was organized in 1905 with
"a capital stock Of S6e,oao. In 1918,
this was raised to 100000 and by
action of the board on June 81, the
capital was increased to 100000. Mr..
C. C.. Rowland was the first president
of this bank and still holds that posi-
ton while there have been four cash.,
iers AFR r. L. Edmunds was the
first cashier, but resigned on account
of poor health. Mr.. G. L. Warren
next held this position untik,Iis death
when he was succeeded by Mr.. F. E..
Hinnant,, Mr. Hinnant resigned to acS
|cept another position and was sue
ceeded by Mr. Earle Rowland, son of
the president, who is the present
cashier
The National Bank of South Caro-
lima was the. first bank in Sumter to
have total deposits of s1,0o0,o00.
and it was the first bank to have total
resources of s2.50o,008. It was the
frs hank n, Sumter to own its own
home and is now the first bank. to
have a capital stock Of 500, ,o00. The
bank. now has several thousand de-
positors and is growing at steady
pace.

C0TTON LETTER
John F. Clark & Coz

New York. June 24.-Cotton was
around opening on demand
from: the larger spot houses despite
the bearish national ginners condi-
ton Of 72. When this demand was
satisfied, however. the market sagged
for want Of support, becoming weak
at midday on liquidation Of. July. ap-
parently by Liverpool. J. w. Jay &
Co., made the condition 67.1 which
was more in line with what traders
thought the figure should be but in
a statistical statement figured that
the carry-over July 81 would be six
and a half million bales. This is al
most as much as last year but every
one knows big proportion OF it is
low grade stuff, not tenderable, or,
desired by spinners. The map was
good. The market is losing all its
friends and although the crop may
only be eleven million and 40 cents
proposition eventually, it is going to
be hard to lift tand sustain advances
until trade and speculation take hold
more aggressively.

For forty years or more there has
been talk OF diyersification in farm
ing. fruit growing, poultry raising.
dairying. etc, but every one whose
memory runs back twenty-five or
thirty years knows that there was
more fruit, more eggs. chickens,
ducks, turkeys and geese, more but
ter and more country produce OF all
kinds to be had in season on the
Sumter market than there IS today.
The missionaries Of diyersifieation
may have been persistent and eloqu-
ent preachers but they have not been
convincing teachers, for results do not
testify to the effectiveness Of their
labor.

cIIY SPEED ORDNANCE
What City Council is Doing TO Pre-
vent Reckless Driving.
Ir. Editor

Mr.. Editor
Your article in last nights paper
regarding speeding is very timely and
II wish 10, advise what is. being done.
by City Council 20 improve this sltua-
tion.
= Under the traffic ordinance. it was
necessary to prove that the speed
limit was exceeded for a distance OF
two hundred feet. This Ordnance
has been amended providing convict
ion if the limit is exceeded at any
one point.
The Traffic ordinance has been
amended making the minimum fine
for violation 5000. This amend
ment has been passed by Council and
will be published promptly in order
that it can go into effect.
Council is: arranging for traffic
police whose entire time will be spent
in the residential districts in an en-
deavor to enforce the traffic laws and
make it safer for our families to use
the streets.
* The law regulating age Of auto
drivers is being enforced and Council
is now contemplating an ordinance
requiring drivers to pass an examina-
ton to prove their ability to properly
drive a ear.
q We Know of course that the per-.
centage OF those who deliberately
violate the traffic ordinances are
small and we hope with the conditions
outlined above, and especially with
the cooperation OF our people, to
very much reduce this percentage.
J. A. RAFFIELD
Councilman.

DEAF LEARN LIP-READING
Men Wounded in Neck and Throat Re-
ceive Speech Training

Among the thousands OF men dis
abled in the World war, there are about
200 practically totally deaf, and 100
with speech defects caused by wounds
in jaw, neck or throat, The majority of
these men, while still in army hospi.
tails, received lip-reading and speech
training. They are now taxing voca
tional training under the federal board
for vocational education.
Soldiers and sailors who did not re-
ceive instruction in lip-resding and
lessons for the correction Of speech de-
fects are now in training under the
supervision of special agent OF the
federal board
One of the most interesting speech
defect cases is that of Private Henry
-. Koopman, who. as a result OF an
operation for masoidtis, suffered what
the doctors call complete motor and
sepsorv aphasia" In every day Ian
plaee. he could neither speak nor I'M
derstand speech His hospital record
showed that before the operation,
Koopman spoke English without an
accent. After his operation he could
utter a few German phrases, but his
English was completely forgotten. lie
could neither name nor locate the parts
Of his body.
SHOW me your arm" would say his
teacher.
Koopman would look vaguely
around him.
Koopmans training was started at
L. S. army general hospital, No. IL, at
Cane Nav. y. j., under an expert
teacher. Miss May Y. Thornton.
At the end of two days the pupil
could count TO four. In one week he
could do simple addition. At the end
Of two weeks he knew three parts OF
his body and could speak one connected
sentence in English. At this time, ne
began left hand writing to develop the
sneech centeTs on the right side OF his
brain. In five months time he could
write with both hands. read simple sen
fences. write a short letter, and his
sneeeh was broken but ineligible.
Moreover. he revealed himself as
remarkable card player and a beautiful
dancer.
Mr. Koopman is discharged from the
army and receiving treatment at New
Work public health service hospital.
The federal board for vocational edu-
cation has arranged that ms speech
training go on under the same teacher
with whom he started at Cape May
Miss Thornton now reports that ne
can talk twenty minutes without stop
ping.
