Cosmos Club
Young Business Men Of City
Form Seni-Monthly Liter
ary Club

a club has been organized among
the young business men Of the
city which is to be known as The
Cosmos Club" and which will hold
meetings every two weeks through
out the winter months. This club
was in existence last year but was
at that time rather loosely organiz-
ed. The good which its members
derived from its presence last year,
however, was the incentive for its
establishment again, this time to be
a permanent organization Of Sum-
ter.
The membership of the club now
consists Of fifteen Of Sumter's
young business men representing
various vocations. The member
ship of the club will be limited 70
a list Of twenty-five names. The
club has been formed For literary
purposes rather than social, and at
each meeting various questions
present day topics and current
events will be discussed.
At the recent formation meeting
Of the club the following officers
were elected to serve during the
ensuing year: President w. J.
Crowson; vice president E. N. Hall;
secretary r. r. Brown; treasurer K
L. Mcleod: executive committee
man W. T. Harmon.

the desire for individual profit and
progress which has been, from the
beginning of history, the animal
sing principle Of most human ae-
Etivities.
Lenine was doubly Handicapped.
He was too far behind the times,
and also too far ahead of them.
He was behind in his belief in
force and his practice ofs brutal
and tyrannical methods. That was
only half the man. He was ahead
perhaps some hundreds of years,
perhaps some thousands-in his
dream Of. race OF human beings
all working together for the COM
monweal instead of for personal
aggcandHement. Now that he has
virtually dropped both handicaps
we shall see what he can do by ac-
cepting human nature as it is.

Discussing Plans For the 1922
State. Fair.

Columbia, Oct. ,31.-Plans for a
larger State Fair next year are be-
ing discussed pretty generally,
since the live" meeting Of the
State Fair A Association in Columbia
last week A football game for
Tuesday of Fair Week and other
attractions to bring the people to-
gether are being urged. The Co
lumbia Chamber Of Commerce de-
sires to aid in a large program Of
social affairs for the 1922 fair. The
Chamber offered its services this
year, but the association did not
accept them. 1t is probable that a
state ball, possibly football game
on Tuesday, between two denonli-
national colleges, and numerous
other new features for the week,
will be suggested. The 1921 fair
was the best in the history of the
association, so far as exhibits and
midway were concerned. A meet
ing of the board OF the association
will be held in February, to make
concrete plans for the 1922 fair. r.
NJ. Cooper. Of Wisacky, is the new
president of the association.

REPRESENTING CHINA.

Nearly every Chinanaa one talks
to in this country insists that the
Chinese delegation at the Washing
ton conference will not represent
China at all. OF the 10000 Chi
nese in the United States, so per
cent come from South China. They
.oId, accordingly, that South Chi
ma, with Canton as its capital, is
the real Chinese republic, and tha.
the northern republic with it's cap
ital at Peking and Hsu Cnih Chang
as it's president is hopelessly re-
dictionary and unrepresentative Sec
ton which has no business pre-
tending to speak for China as a
whole.
These Chino-Amerieans are high
iy pleased by the announcement Of
Sun Yat Sen, in g recent message
to the United States government,
that none Of the decisions relating
20 China. will be recognized as
having any validity Of force" un-
less a delegation from Canton is al
lowed to take part in the delibera-
tons.
1t is an embarrassing situation,
as there is much Ameri-
can sympathy with South China,
and most of our business inter-
course is with that section. Recog-
milton of the Canton government
in any way would make trouble
with the Peking government and
also make new complications with
Japan, which has been dealing
exclusively with Pekins.

OPEN SHOP At PANAMA.

Secretary Weeks. has adopted
the open shop as the principle for
the Panama Canal Zone. His de-
cision will be attacked in many
quarters. 1t is interesting as an in
dication Of the temper Of the ad-
ministration where labor is con-
cerned.
The effort will be made to keep
the thing actually open without
prejudice in favor Of either ele-
me1t Secretary Weeks explains,
Employees. whether union Or nom
union, shall be dealt with openly,
through committees or representa-
tives composed Of employees,
whether representatives Of labor
organizations or not"
If it can be proved at Panama
that organized and unorganized Ia
Dor can work in peace, side by side,
be given equal opportunity and de-
serve It equally and accept it as
lust, the solving Of labor problems
