BUSINESS SUCCESS.

How many men," inquiries a
popular writer or business topics,
would rather have successful sons
than a SUCCESSFUL business?''
Imagination suggests a business
mans chorus: I'D rather have
both!''
To have. both of these blessings,
however, is exceptional. The aver
age man, and indeed most Of the
men above the average, have limit
ed energy and time and interest.
Business success is won usually by
focusing these qualities on the
business. That leaves little for the
sons. The result is that exception
ally successful business men seldom
have sons fitted to follow in their
footsteps.
Suppose the father devotes him
self to his children as his success
full friends devote themselves to
their business. He is pretty sure
then to have a successful son. He
may not have so successful bust
ness for the son to. step into; but
the right sort of son can make his
own success. and thus justify his
father eventually on both scores.

Tobacco Growers
Marketing Asso.
South Carolina Farmers Have
signed Up Three-Fourths
Of Quota

Florence, Dec 16-South Caro-
lima has contracted for IS per cent.
Of the minimum quota OF tobacco
which is required Of her to become
q party to the Tri-Sta,e Tobacco
Growers cooperative MarlctinS
association. which will include the
states Of Virginia, North Carolina
and South Carolina. Headquarters
of the South Carolina Tobacco
association made this official an
nounccment tonight through its
secretary. T. Benton Young
The contracts to date represent
more than 20.000,000 pounds Of to-
bacco. This is approximately one
third Of the production Of the year
Of 1920. Florence county with 500
contracts and Darlington with
nearly as many more have signed
their minimum quotas. Williams
burg and several other Of the small
er producing counties are running
close to their minimum require
ments.
"We have three -fourths Of our
minimum requirements under con-
tract, l am certain Secretary
Young stated officially tonight.
"We are very near the goal. but the
help Of every individual who has
signed contract thus far is I'M
perative to put over the campaign
by the first Of the year. when the
campaign will close.
Beware Of persons who are op-
posing this movement" Mr.. Young
also said tonight CAS- our cam
paign is growing in success the
agitation against it is growing
stronger" he said. There is op-
position and it is more active today
than ever before. To every tobacco
planter I would urge this precau-
ton: Ask yourself what is the mo-
tive of the man who advises you not
to sign. Don't be misled. If you
have any doubt ask the men who
grow tobacco and are backing this
movement.
..As the time for closing the con-
tract approaches interest is be-
coming more pronounced. AN IN

KITCHEN PARKING SPACE.

'If ever 1 have q chance to build
a kitchen, I'm going to fly in the
face of the efficiency experts and
have plenty Of waste space in it,
says a woman who has been try
ing to adapt modern factory meth
DDS to housekeeping. 1.-The COM
pact kitchen. is ali righ, up to the
point Of getting the meal on the
table. Then there's no place to
park the plates of salad while
they're waiting to be served. and
when the table is cleared there's
no place to park some Of the dishes
while you're rinsing and stacking
the others. Parking space for
kitchens is my motto!"
The homely truth which many
women in modern kitchens are dis
covering is that the roonly old
fashioned workshop had a few ad-
vantages after all. Women who
build today are apt to make their
kitchens little bigger than those
recently constructed They route
them so that the preparation of the
meal may be do1e in a small and
compact space, but they leave a lit
tie room to breathe in.
A writer in the Ladies Home
Journal pleads for the same space.
though she uses another figure.
She says:
Before each meal there is al
ways a feet Of vessels laden with
foods. some ready for sailing direc,
to the dining table. some TO go to
the range for cooking All these
vessels have to be doclied while
| waiting. and when YOU have no
room to spread out in, finding

ing, pushing this aside. setting
that son, n,owhere else. looking
around and around. and finally put
