The stage at the Ca mp school audi
forum where the m Getting was held

with the Yutide some survivas
of which remain in present day ceie-
brations of Christmas.

Newspaper Standards Universal
A number Of questions we're asked
Miss Dorman concerning the policies
of New York newspapers. When asked
what standard Of Language her paper
adopted, she said 1t was simply the
same standard used by practically
every modern newspaper in the coun-
try, Use shortest possible words,
certain styles of punctuation and
spelling and not to quote any one of
foreign birth in dialect when inter
viewed
Miss Dorman has never worked on
small town paper and her eNper-
fences were confined exclusively TO
the assignment system used by all
metropolitan dailies.
She told her audience that no re-
porter on a big paper, which main
tains the copy desk" ever writes a
head, She also quoted a noted Eng
fish writer in a state ment that good
reporters don't take notes"

That Dir. Adolph Lorenz, the IA
nous bloodless surgeon, was the vic
tim of a clever imposter, and that
the Princess Fatima. of Afghanistan"
was a previous victim in her turn of
the same INSCRIPTIONS fakir, was the
statement made by Miss Marjorie
Dorman. of the Brooklyn Eagle, TO
the South church Brotherhood last
night. Because of the fact that the
Brotherhood had a woman speaker.
the meeting was thrown open to wives
and friends of the members and about
$50 people heard the lecture.
Take But Don't Give.
Miss Dorman told her audience the
difficulties a woman has getting a job
of straight reporting on a newspaper
She spoke of the trials which confront
woman reporter, the many snubs
she gets from people who expect to
read all the news in the paper but
don't feel as though they should give
any. She told of the keen sense of
humOr necessary to be a good re-
porter. either man or woman,
Speaking of the narrow attitude on
the part of some people, found IN
every community, who slam doors in
reporters faces and then become an
CRY when the reporter gets the story
some other way, she said, Every
body in the world wants to read
newspapers, but many people do not
want to be written about. Since every
one reads the newspapers, they should
realize that newspapers are a part Of
the community life and the readers
should be willing to give news as
well as to take it,"
Same Conditions Here.
In referring to the tendency OF
some people to feel that only nice
things about them or their business
should be published and anything de-
rogatory should be suppressed, she
said. ITO the average reporter, news
is news, good, bad or indifferent,
| She illustrated her point by telling a
story of collision between ambu-
lances in a certain New York hospital
When the reporter called up the hos
pital and asked for the story he was
refused the facts. Two opposltlor
papers had district reporters who
had seen the accident and they had
a beat on the story. Two weeks
later the hospital authorities asked
the paper they had refused the &C
cidcnt story to help raise a Tunn tC
nav for an ambulance, damaged In a
recent accident" Needless to say they
were reminded that the Golden Rule
still applies,
The hospital authorities apologized

Socicty's Problem

Mrs, Harding was described as typi-
cal of real American democracy. Be
fore her husbands election to the
presidency Of the United States she
was described as officiating in her
own kitchen, doing the family bak-
ing, etc. Efforts to make a society
woman of her were quite amusing. A
humorous description was given of the
reception accorded TO those who
would have equipped her with knee
length and backless dresses, for which
the first lady of the land" has no
time. But Mrs. Harding refused to
be stampeded into anything radical.
Miss Dorman won quite a laugh in
her truly feminine description of a

consuming an entire afternoon debat-
ing the question, How shall we

Princess Fatina

The Princess Fatima, of Afghanis-

months ago to recoup her fading for
tunes by selling the family jewel, one
of the largest diamonds in the world,
was met at the dock by a man, said
to be familiar figure who represent
ed himself to be from one of the large
! organizations in the city. This man,
she said swindled the princess of her
money and the latter disappeared,
only to be found amidst squalid sur
roundings with the diamond still in
her possession, Monday of this week.
In the meantime the same man, rep
resenting himself this time to be the
personal aide of a city commissioner,
met DR.. Lorenz at the board and be-
came attached to the famous sur
geon as his secretary. 1t is to this
man that Miss Dorman attributes
most of the unfortunate criticism
which has been leveled at the Vienna
surgeon.
DIR. LOrcnZ the Man
DIR. LOrenz, she said, was greatly
respected among New York news
papermen, and no one who knows
him intimately or how he works, be-
licVes that any Of the exorbitant
fees, which newspapers all over the
country have been publishing lately,
were received by him. She said it
was this same imposter who was re-
spOnsible for the trouble, who is
among the missing now. She told of
New York hospitals which charged
fees of SO day to prospective.
patients of DR.. Lorenz, requiring these
patients to engage at the above prices,
rooms which they never saw.
The attention which has arisen has
divided the press and medical men
of New York against each other. DIR.
Lorenz, because of the criticism, has
cancelled his proposed trip to Chicago,
and will remain in New York

Postmaster General Will H. Hays.
The Cost of Living
Newspaper experiences in bringing

publishing a comparison of prices be-
tween different business places, she
said was one of the important duties
of a paper and was a popular Gus
tom of New York papers. She told
how bread, which sold for nine cents
a loaf in Philadelphia, and II cents
in New York, was brought down to
nine cents in New York by a pub

Of business places were published
with the prices attached. Exposing
of fake cures, was another phase of

BEAUFORT COUNTY.

No one who has been about the
State a bit can realize the difference
between Beaufort and the cotton
country. Here We have enterprise,
busy farms ,and a great crop ready
to move and other crops we'll under
way. There one sees on every hand
stagnation, hopelessness and some
thing akin to despair due to the low
price of cotton, the encroachments Of
the boil weevil, and the depressed
money market: We too feel the ef-
fects of the general financial condi-
ton, but our diversified crops and
the energetic and aggressive meas
ures taken by the Truckers Exchange
to open new marekts gives us a pro-
gram for meeting the situation. 1t has
taken every resource at the disposal
of the banks, the merchants and the
farmers to finance the making Of this
crop, and just now when the last of
these demands are coming in money
is so scarce that our people wonder
if there really is any such thing any
where. But in the next three months
the tide should turn, with the first
shipments of our splendid lettuce
crop it has begun to turn. 1t has
taken years Of patient effort to build
up the truck farms and marketing
organization Of this county, but now
it is here to save US from the inevi-
table results Of the one crop system
that the cotton sections are suffering
FROM. It has taken pioneer work, our
farmers and bankers and merchants
have had to break away from the old
methods. It has taken grit to over
come the multitude of unexpected
difficulties Of these new ventures, and
some have failed and dropped out.
But today we have community that
is self-confdent, alive with enterprise,
we'll knit by a spirit of comradeship,
and glowing with hope.-Beaufort'

impress upon folks in eur towns and
cities the duty which they owe to the
South to see to it that efforts are
made to provide markets for the sur
plus food which is grown. Millions
Of dollars were sent out of the state
last year by South Carolinians for
food that could as we'll have lemained
at home. Every merchant and every
dweller' in every hamlet, town and
city in the state should make it his
business to buy nothing from abroad
that can be had of our own farmers.
Here is a work cut out for every
chamber Of commerce in South Caro-
lima.
Farmers will with more readiness
cut down on cotton if they know there
will be ready markets for food crops.
The time to get busy on, such pro-
gram is now.
