HARVEY SCORED
lNU. s: HOUSE

Washington May 22-Col. George
Harvey, American ambassador to
Great Britain, was criticized Satur-
day in the House by Representative
Stevenson of South Carolina, for
statements against the League OF
Nations and the. cause Of Americas
entrance into the war. :.
!"He said we went into the war to
save our hides, not to save civiliza-
tion,' declared Stevenson "and that
we will have nothing to do with any
League. of Nations. President Hard
ing has promised to work out some
association or League Of Natiens for
peace in wAich the United States
will participate. There IS conflict
in purposes here, it seems to me.
"But Colonel Harvey came 10
Charleston, S. c., in 1905 and spoke
before the ST. Andrews Society. he
then boasted that some Of his atlres.
tors had not fought for the Urion
cause in the Civil War some Of them
hired substitutes and some Of them
went to jail in preference to fight
ing. He boasted of this yellow streak
in his ancestors. I suppose he will be
telling the British some Of his ances-
tors had failed to fight against them
in the Revolutionary War, or had
hired substitutes to do the fight
ing."N .,
"Where did Colonel Harvey get
his title?" asked Representative
Byrnes of South Carolina.
"It was at that St. Andrews ban
quet. The governor of South Caro-
Lima, repeating that ancient and hon
ored custom prevalent wren the gov
ernor of South Carolina met the gov
ernor Of North Car olina in proprs-
ing a toast, dibbed Havcy colonel
and his title struck" said Stevenson.

NO GENERAL SHORTAGE
IN FRUIT CROP

Washington, May 21.--Damage
to fruit, crops from freezes in some
sections of the country has not re-
suited in general shortage, the De-
partment of Agriculture said today.
California cherries and Georgia
peaches are already flowing to the
markets, while the strawberry crop
was said to be abundant in several
places. '
A good crop of apples and peaches
is expected in Colorado ard an aver.
age yield Of late apples is promised
in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Tennessee is looking forward To
the largest blackberry crop on. re.
cord although expecting a short ap.
pie and peach crop. Utah will, pro.
bably have only a fifty percent
peach crop. Fair crops Of blackber.
ries and raspberries are looked fol
in Missouri.
The paple crop outlook in Iowa, is
improving the Department announc.
ed, but in Michigan only light
yield, except in winter apples and
pears is expected. In Arizona the
peach crop is almost a total failure
and in Delaware peaches, pears,
plums and cherries have been prac.
tically killed by frost.
Virginia was said to have very
poor prospects in fruit this year. q

To Control Chicken Lice.
Sodium FIuorid Most Satisfactory.

Clemson College, May.-Poultry lice
do not suck blood. They feed ON por'
tions of the feathers or on tho scales
Of the skin. The greatest lois fIom
lice is possibly that Of young chickens
which may become infested from thu
mother hon, even before they become
dry after leaving the egg shell.
Though there are several kinds Of
poultry lice, they can all be controlled
by the same method.
Control.
Sodium fuorid appears to be the
most satisfactory chemical to use TO-
the control of all kinds of poultry lice
The treatment must he thorough, and
every fowl in the poultry yard must
be treated, because If one infested
chicken escapes, it may then be bus
a sort time until the entire flock ia
again infested. The commercial form
Of sodium fuorid may be obtained at
most drug stores. Small amounts OF
"pinches" Of this chemical should be
placed on different parts Of the BODY
of the chicken as follows: Place the
FOWL on a table in an open vessel, hold
the legs and wings in one hand, and
with the other hand place a small
pinch of the chemical next to the skin
among the feathers on the head, neck
each thigh, underside OF spread wings
and distribute by pushing the fingers
among the feathers. One pound will
treat about 100 hens. For young chicks
the head, back and body are the only
parts that are necessary to treat.
Precautions.
Wash the hands thoroughly after
dsing chemical. It will not injure the
hands, but it ls frequently irritable to
sores. It should Of course never be
taken internally.

Measures 20 feet from the tip Of his
tail to his head and 20 feet from his

phant of its kind in existence. Own
ed by Hejaz Temple who now has
under consideration presenting it to
the city of Greenville as neuclus
for q ZOO to be established in City
Park. Hear the swish of his mighty
trunk, and swash of his wee "valise"
as he pases in the parade. So gentle
that a child cannot play with him ;
so ferocious that he will eat peanuts
out Of your hand, this proboscidian
mammal will appear in the parade
without mahout, or driver.

standing the efforts of Robert Full

bites those who crowd into the

streets will be lined with spectators
for this event is q foregone conelu-

door Of every Office fronting on the

80. Notking Like 1t Before
AT Shrine ceremonials here in the
past the parades have attracted
many spectators, but, generally
speaking, the relatives and friends
Of the various members and candi-
dates predominated. Parades in the
past were only secondary consld-
GRAFTON, looked upon as such and
very little attention given them by
the temple. But on May 26th every
thing will be different. This time
the Shriners will treat the public to
something in the way of a parade
that will live for years in the
memory of all who witness it. For
young and old it will prove as i'm
pressive as a boys first circus pa
rade. It will contain many amusing
spectacles for every one, no matter
what their age.
Towns 70 Compete
The various towns within the
Temples jurisdiction have been re-
quested TO furnish some particular
feature for the parade and a cup
will be offered for the best. Green
vile will not be a competitor, but
nevertheless will put in some fea-
lures off her own. A number OF
the nearby cities have already called
a meeting of their members and
have written that they will be pres
ent with the intention of taking
home the cup. Until the day Of the
parade the feature which the various
towns will offer will not be known.
Line of March
Unlike circus parades, this Shrin-
ers parade will begin marching or
the very minute it is scheduled to
start. No waiting will be necessary
on the part Of those wishing to avail
themselves of the opportunity Of
witnessing this grand spectacle.
Leaving Textile Hall promptly at
2:3e p. m. the enormous caravan
will move east on Washington street
to Main; south on Main to Broad
street; back up Main. to the monu-
ment, down Main to Washington
street and thence to Textile Hall.
The Parade
Resplednent in their gorgeous new
uniforms, Hejaz Temples own band
will lead the mammoth parade. An
other new addition, Hejaz Shrine
Drum Corps will be in line with gay
costumes and Hejaz Patrol-the
backbone Of the Temple-will be
seen in fancy drills. The members
Of each town marching in a body
and viewing with each other for the
pride will produce many novels and
amusing features.

hearts of millions of people, young
and old alike, and will now be seen
in broad open daylight trampins
down Main Street with the Shriners,
just as happy as if he and some of
the "fresh meat" had good sense.
