In an address in Louisville after n
tour Of the State in the interest Of
the China Famine Fund, the Rev Will
liam Stout describing conditions in
China, told Of terrific battle between
famished dogs and starving men.
Mr.. Stout, missionary near the
provinces now ravished by starvation,
typhus and the bubonic plague, is
here on a years furlough which ex-
pires in July. He told his audience
Of encountering the battle while on a
relief expedition in the interior of
China, the fight starting over a NOR
sci Of food.
when a dog was killed he was
quickly eaten or when man was
wounded he was terribly mangled by
the fangs Of the beasts which once

AT every stop, crowds Of such
ragged and MANNED Chinese, old and
Young, ms eyes never before beheld,
would swarm around us begging for
food and money"
Several persons in our party threw
some coins to the people and the
scramble was heart rendering. Then
some one tried TO hand a morsel Of
bread TO one poor old woman. The
crowd that had followed us was a
multitude and It seemed that the
whole mass fell upon the poor soul
and tried TO wrest the morsel from
her"
"Then, as tho out Of the desert, a
great flock Of dogs appeared in our
midst, snarling, swapping and tear

dog would fall dead eager hands

young folks did not attend any more
revivals at Smyrna.
But Uncle Jimmy" once got the
worst from visitor to camp-meeting
a gally dressed young man from the
court house attended services and
took seat in front of the pulpit. He
began twirling his gold-headed cane
while 4Uncle Jimmy was in the
midst Of a sermon. Stopping short in
his discourse, the old preacher re-
marked, pointing to the young man: {:
MY young friend let me say to you
there are no gold-headed canes in
Heaven" The instant retort was, Eyes
nor wooden-legs, either"
During a camp meeting at old
Smyrna Uncle Jimmy" was half sick
and broken down. Turning the pulpit
over to young minister from a
town church, he told the corgrega-
tion that he would retire to his home
and rest that night, as there seemed
TO be very cold and indifferent feel
ing. The new minister delivered what
he thought was a powerful sermon
and on calling for mourners, the altar
rail was crowded. So elated was he

home of Brother Dannelly, who lived
near by, to bring him to the tent to
help pray for the vast number of pen
1tents. The old man reluctantly left
his bed and walking into the stand,
looked upon the mourners, strung
around the rail. After taking a good
look at the penitents he turned to
the young revivalist and remarked:
Bad haul, my young brother. Throw
out your net and try again. have
been converting that same old gang
regularly at every camp meeting for
the past ten years and they are not
worth trying to save The last one of
them will forget before the end of the
week all about your prayers, and be
drinking, gambling and frolicking."
With this verdict Uncle Jimmy" tur-
ned home. leaving the young minis
ter TO do his own converting.
In his latter years Uncle Jimmy"
married a second time, to an old maid
from Anderson county, who had been
exceedingly kind in nursing him
while he was sick during some of his
preaching tours through that county.

The delegates that attended the
State Convention of the American Le-

returned with reports that this was
the best meeting that had ever been
staged. The good people of Newberry
welcomed the visiting Legionaires in
their homes most cordially. Members
OF the Legion who had attended pre-
vious conventions were unanimous in
saying that this meeting surpassed all
others.
The point of getting all ex-service
men in the Legion was emphasized.
there being about twenty-seven thous-
and eX-service men in South Carolina.
while only about four thousand are
members of the Legion. Dillon Post

vice man in the county to join the
Legion, either the Dillon Post or the
Latta Post.
Dillon had full representation at
the Convention and all the delegates
were unanimous in saying that New
berry is the second best town in the
state.

MAKES STRONG APPEAL
FOR BUILDING LOANS
Frank Bailey Says Poor Man
Needs Cheaper Rents.

The demand for building loans, on ac-
count of the great building operations
going on In Brooklyn, Is extremely
heavy. and the difficulties of supplying
the capital for these building operations
is and will be very considerable. accord
ing to the Title Guarantee and Trust
Company, which during the last two
wesks. aided by a group of New York
and Brooklyn banks, have provided
building loans for forty-six different
builders. The total amount loaned was
$1,414.000. This money win aid In the
construction of 137 residential buildings
and will accommodate 543 families.
Frank Bailey vice-president OF the
Title Guarantee and Trust Company,
said yesterday:
Il am still under the impression that
the higher priced nat Is being con-
structed up to the demand. but that the
purchase power OF the people is being
reduced. Rents in the higher class prop
erty have peaked. but unfortunately for
the iaiddle class tenant there is not con-
struct1on to meet his necessities.
The loans that we have made in two
weeks cover 543 families in BROOKLYN
and 232 families in Queens, or a total Of
775 families. and is a help toward the
housing relief. the total amount loaned
being more than s2,250,00 I hope that
1t will be possible to interest other in
aiding this great home movement. be-
cause 1t will have to come between now
and April 1, 1922, at which time the tax
exemption privilege expires. II those
who control capital and are interested
In housing will now aid. the housing
relief viii be cured to n great extent
within the next six months.-
