STEEL CORSET FOR POLICE
Ten Bullet.Proof Garments Purchas.
ed For Detective Squads

New York.-Steel corsets for po-
licemen have been tested by police
officials and may become a part of
the detectives regular equipment, it
was learned yesterday. The tests, it
was said, have shown the corset to be
absolutely bullet-proof.
Ten of the armor-plate undergar-
ments have been purchased for dis
tribution among members of the
bomb squad, the Italian squad and
the safe and left squad of the de-
partment. They will be especially val
liable, the police believe, in the event
it becomes necessary to go after a
prisoner who has barricaded himself
and is ready to fire at his captors.
The inventor of the armor is said
to be Albert Schwartz of 1877 Will
liam Street. The corset is not very
heavy and not expensive, it is said.
1t weighs six pounds and is made up
of silk, canvas and Norwegian steel
Whether New York's army of "blue
coats will become wholly an army
of "steel coats" is matter for fu-
ture decision police officials said.

FREIGHT REDUCTION
Now Being Cons{dered Despite
Strike Now Ordered.

Washington, Oct. 18.-The i'm
preston was given in administration
quarters today that freight rate re-
duction was under consideration.
There was no statement to indicate
how soon decision on the question
might be reached but high admin
stration Officials vouchsafed the in
formation that an announcement
concerning the rate readjustment
might come within a few days.
1t was made plain that the con-
sideration being given to the rate
question was independent of the
present labor wage tangle and the
threatened walkout of the railroad
employees.
Ground for the assumption that
the rate question had been discuss
ed between the President and J.. the
public group of the railroad labor
board yesterday was given in several
quarters. But official silence was
maintained throughout the govern
ment as to the nature Of the discus
sion and as to what lines rate ad-
justment would follow should it be
definitely decided upon by the gov
eminent agencies having to do with
the question. ...

HARVEST SWEET POTATOES
Early Frost Makes Early Harvesting
n Necessity.

Clemson College, Oct. 18.-That
the recent killing frost make it nee
essary to harvest sweet potatoes ear
her than would otherwise have been
necessary and that if potatoes can
not be taken out of the ground at
once after frost it is necessary to
remove the vines to prevent the frost
ed sap from descending and contami-
mating the potatoes is advice that the
Clemson College horticultural au7
thorities urge every potato grower in
South Carolina to give immediate
attention. Prof. C. C. Newman, Chief
of the Horticultural Division, issued
this morning the following statement:
"The Horticultural Division has
advised sweet potato growers to har-
vest their potatoes before frost, if
possible. The recent killing frost
makes it necessary that the potatoes
be harvested within the next few
days, otherwise serious injury may
result. The frost having come two
weeks earlier than usual, it is neces-
sary for many farmers to dig their
potatoes before they had planned to
do so. 1t will be necessary also for
practically all Of the growers in the
upper half of the state to dig pota-
toes at the same time. We wish there
fore to impress upon the county
agents and farmers the Importance
of harvesting, grading, and storing
potatoes at the earliest possible
date.
''If frost has occurred and the po-
tatoes can not be dug Immediately,
the vines should be removed to pre-
vent the potatoes themselves from
becoming contaminated by the frost,
ed sap lin the vines"

WILL TAKE CHANCE
Legion Men Will Attend Convention
Despite Strike.

Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 18.-Dele-
gates to the National convention of
the American Legion to be held in
Kansas City, Mo-, October 81, Nov
ember / and November 2, will go to
the convention city before the gener-
al railroad strike is scheduled to go
into effect and will "abide by the
fortunes of war when it comes to
getting back" according to state
ment issued at headquarters Of the
legion here today. 1t was not indi-
Gated in the statement whether the
legion contemplated providing trans
portation for the delegates should
passenger service on the railroads
come to a standstill.

A Poser.

Small boys often ask embarrassing
questions. A preacher was addressing
the Sunday School and explaining
the significance of white. .
"Why," he asked, "does bride de-
sire to be clothed in white at her
msrriage?" As no one answered, he
went on: because white stands for
ioy, and the wedding day is the most
Joyous occasion in a woman's life"
Immediately little fellow piped
up: "Please, sir, why do the men all
wear black?"-Bosto Transcript.

TIGERS PREPARING
FOR FURMAN GAME
Team, Coaches and Students Not
Disheartened by Recent Dis
aSters

Clemson College, Oct. 18.--The tt
ger eleven returned from Auburn,
where they played on Friday, Oct. ID
defeated but not downhearted. In
spite of the fact that the Plainsmen
handed them the worst defeat that
they have had to bear in long time,
the coaches and players are not dis
couraged, neither are they seeking
refuge behind alibis.
The corps of cadets gave the team
rousing welcome upon its return
Sunday at noon. With an ovation of
cheers and yells, they showed the
grid warriors that they were behind
them to the man.
With the Auburn-Clemson game a
page in football history, attention
now centers upon the Clemson-Fur-
man game which will be played in
Greenville on Friday, Oct. 81. Only
sweeping victory for the Tigers
can wipe away the bitter memory OF
last years, game in which the Purple
Hurricane handed the Tigers one OF
the few defeats that they have suf-
fered from this breezy outfit.
Due to the intense feeling of rival
ry which exists between these two
teams, and to the fact that both have
just suffered heavy defeat, Glenn
son at the hands of Auburn, and Fur
man from Tech, the game promises
to be one of the most bitterly con-
tested Of the season.
A special train has been charter
ed for the Clemson cadets, who will
journey over to Greenville in body
to see the game and to cheer the Tig-
ers to victory.

STATE FAIR OPENS MONDAY

Columbia, Dot. 1.-THE South
Carolina State Fair is but one week
distant and the indications point to
one of the best shows that has been
put on at the fair grounds. Already
the entries for the livestock depart
ment have exceeded the capacity and
a large tent has been secured to
make room for the animals which are
to be shown. The agricultural ex-
hjbits will also be extensive. The
amusement and entertainment fea-
lures will be better than ever. A
novel attraction this year is the auto
polo game, something new in this
section of the country. These are ex-
citing and thrilling. The automobile
races on Friday of fair week will be
of professional calfber, well known
drivers who are famous throughout
the land being participants.
The railroads, as usual are offer
ing reduced rates and will operate
special trains to Columbia during
the busy days.
The big event on the sporting
card will of course be the Clemson
Carolina football game. There Will
also be horse races which give indica-
lions of showing some fine entries.
The midway will be of much better
quality this year, company being
secured which is touring only the
larger fairs. The fireworks display
will also be a big feature.
Clemson and Winthrop will have
attractive and educational exhibits.
The government will have an exhibit
and the women's department will be
one of the big features.
The poultry show which is held in
conjunction with the fair will be an
exceptionally good display, according
to advance information received
from B. E. Adams of Charleston,
manager of the show.

mother of the boy emperor, Hsuan-
Tung, who was ousted from the
throne on February IL, 1912, died
on October /, and it is reported she
committed suicide by taking an
overdose of opium. The reason for
her suicide is attributed by reports

between Princess Chin and the en-
press dowager, Princess Chun.

AN EXAMPLE FOR FARMERS
The Atlanta Journal.

The Atlanta Journal.
In an inconspicuous news story
from south Georgia is found the
demonstration ola fundamental prin-
ciple which underlies Georgia's pres
ent and future prosperity. Here it
is:
Thomas Garrett, of Charing, Tay-
lor county, has sold to the Planters
Products Company, which operates
curing house at Charing, 1927 bu-
shek Of graded sweet potatoes, which
were raised on eight acres of land.
Mr.. Garrett has 80 additional acres
in potatoes"
This Taylor county farmer has
grasped one of the essential truths
that vitality affect agricultural oper-
ations if they are to be conducted on
satisfactory basis. Notice that he
sold graded potatoes after they had
been properly cured.
Sweet potatoes, easily grown in
Georgia and particularly in the SOU
thern portion of the State, where
sandy soil predominates, constitute
one of the most profitable crops that
can be produced. The very fact
that their production requires COM
paraively little labor and financial
expenditure has caused the lowly
tuber to be regarded with something
like contempt. Some farmers still
persist IN using sweet potatoes as
hog feed rather than as money
crop Ito supplement cotton, or as a
product to be utilized in carrying out
the policy of Giving at home"
Volumes have been written on the
food value of the yam; other vol.
umes to give the result of scientific
research showing the best methods
of making the tubers ready for mar
ket. The old-fashioned way of curing
| potatoes has been largely abandoned
in favor of the more economical,
more efficient method of curing now
being demonstrated throughout the
South. Until the advent of the curing
house, the farmer buried his sweet
potatoes in a huge mound, digging
them as needed during the winter
If lucky, he had sweet potatoes for
several weeks; if not, his potato sup,
ply, when uncovered, was found to
be decayed beyond hope of salvage.

RADIUM RETURNS
Two Capsules Worth $500 Stoler
And Brought Back.

FIprence, Oct. 18.-Radrum
valued at $1,000, which disappeared
from the Florence infrmary here
hast Sunday and which was believed
to have been stolen, was mysterious,
returned to that institution this af-
ternoon, it was learned today. The
mecious metal was in two small
capsules and all the usual tests had
failed to locate it anywhere about
the building. Officials declined to dis
cuss the return of the capsules.

Merry-Making Features
Marrying In Palestine

Jerusalem. The marriage Gus
toms of Palestine demonstrated re-
Gently in the wedding of one of the
prettiest girls of the city TO a well-to
do merchant, are among the most in
teresting celebrations of this ancient
city.
No person who is privileged to wit
ness one will ever forget either the
gorgeous costumes displayed or the
thrill of music and dancing indulg-
ed in by the guests.
Not only the respective families Of
The bride and bridegroom, but also
the entire neighborhood takes part
in the merry-making which generally
lasts for seven days.
The celebration begins always on
Monday and the wedding ceremony
itself, always occurs at dawn on the
tolfOWlnS Sunudy.
Invitations are sent only to those
from whom presents are expected.
However, any person may attend
who wishes. Presents are always in
the nature of foodstuffs, such as
rice, meat, sugar, coffee, flour, but
ter and vegetables. These are neces-
sary to provide food for the hundreds
of guests whos flock to the BRIDE
groom's house daily to take part IN
the singing and dancing.
Saturdays bring the climax to all
ioy-making. If the bridegroom's
father is of even moderate clrcum-
stances, professional musicians are
hired for the day.
Men and women in Palestine DO
not mix together, often due to the
general belief that women are not
mentaly worthy of association. Con-
sequently it becomes necessary to en-
terrain women separately.
On Saturday evening at 8 o'clock
there takes place the shaving of the
bridegroom, feature of the enter
tainment. Surrounded by scores OF
men and women who keep up inces-
SAINT maddening yells, which may be
heard for a mile around, the barber
undertakes the operation.
This done, a procession IS formed
proceeding to the church with people
marching two abreast. At the head
come eight kawases (guards) fol-
lowed by ten children carrying in
their hands palm branches and long
candles lighted. Immediately after,
four priests dressed in their church
robes and singing psalms. The bride
groom accompanied by his father
and the best man, come next, follow
ed by 200 or 800 men. At the end OF
the procession come the women and
children.
A similar procession having start
ed about the same time from the
brides place, the two groups meet at
some appointed place and proceed
jointly to the church. ALI along the
streets men and women, wakened by
the noise, lean out of their windows
to watch the bridal party.
After the wedding ceremony Is
performed, a general rush is then
made to the bridegroom's house
where a breakfast is served (by this
time it being early morning) to all

IN HONOR OF THE OLD
VETERANS

Five and twenty years ago
On a clear September night,
| Glanced upon merry group
Around a camp fire bright,
1t was a grand old camp fire
And one twas good to see,
And gathered round it one and all
Seemed happy as colud be.
There were shouts OF merry lauhster
At Il story some one told;
There were songs that stirred old
memories
or deeds both brave and bold
There were tales OF victory and strife
That brought the starting tear,
As | listened to the telling
BY those veterans brave and dear.
Tis many years since first | heard
These tales OF glory told,
And have had the privilege
To listen as Of old.
The same old songs, the Same old
tales,
But they have dearor grown
AZ tho many glad reunions
These veterans have known
All honor to tho G. A, h.
We love the dear old boys.
May they meet at many a campfire
And share each others joys.
And when they hear the roll call
That each must surely hear,
May they sleep beneath the good old
flag
That each has loved 50 dear
Mary Eleanor Wilson.
