Poland China Growers Association will
be held at Dover. Thursday. November
18th. The consignors to this sale are
selling 72 first-class animals that were
picked from over 200 of the best in

are breeders of the best obtainable,
and they have consigned some of their
choicest animals. The hogs to be sold
range in size from weanling pigs to 700
pound sows. This variation in the size
of the animals makes it possible for
every purchaser to supply his wants no
matter what size animal he is looking
for.
Farmers are awakening to the adyan-
tages of pure breds over scrubs and
grades and this awakening is causing a
demand for pure bred animals. Breed
ers should prepare to supply this de-
mand and farmeJb should take advan-
tage. of their opportunity to secure
these high-class animals at their own
prices at the big sale, November 18th.

What battles hast thou fought for me ?

My leader and my King;
And bid me lay my wounds in sight.
The scars borne just for Thee in fight.
What love-scars could ! bring?
GIVE THE BEST YOU HAVE
There are loyal hearts, there are spirits

There are souls that are pure and
Then give to the world the best you
And the best will come back to- you.
Give love, and love to your life will

Their faith in your word and deed.
Give truth, and your gifts will be paid
in kind,
And honor will honor meet:
And smile that is sweet will surely
find
A smile that is just as sweet.
Give pity and sorrow to those who
mourn,
You will gather in flowers again
The scattered seeds from your thought
outborne,
Though the sowing seemed but in
vain.
For.life is the mirror of king and slave.
'Tis lust what we are and do;
Then give to the world the best that
you have
And the best will come back to you.

YACHT FOR A. |. DUPONT

Alfred 1. dupont has placed an order
with the American Car and Foundry Co.
| for the construction, at the jackson
& Sharp plant, Wilmington DEL, of a
seagoing Diesel motored yacht. 1t is to
be built at once and it is expected that
it will be completed within 80 days.
One of the objects in placing the order
now, Mr.. DUPONT said recently, when
| asked about the matter, was to help in
| the present unemployment situation.
The plans were prepared by Edward
R. Carroll, naval engineer, Of Fairvlew
| Camden. N. j., under Mr.. duPonts
direction. and they call for the largest
size yacht that can successfully navl-
gate all our canals and waterways,
while bilge keels and high bulwarks
give promise of dry and comfortable
boat at sea. All the staterooms for
owner and guests are on the upper
deck, something of which no other
watch yet designed, it is said, can boast.
| The construction is to be of the finest.
A steel keel, white oak frames. with
| steel strapping, insure long life and the
| sturdiness to endure the mlshaps which
| NAV be expected exploring the lesser
known waters while the white
| nine decks and teak deck house will
make her one of the most handsome
of the long list Of notable yachts that
have been built in Wilmington.
In appearance the new boat will be
of the naval type, SO popular with
yachtsmen. Her engines were personally
selected and tested by Mr.. DUPONT. and
are of the full Diesel type embodylng
| all the modern developments Of their
use in submarines and other naval
craft during the war. She will have twin
screws, Aside from the engines, there
will be many noteworthy and ingenious
features testifyjng to the engineering
skill of her owner.
An electric capstan, electric boat
hoist and electric refrigerating ap-
paratus are features that help make
her the most complete equipped yacht
of her size yet built.
When Mr.. dupont was asked whether
he contemplated disposing of his yacht
Alicia, he said he did not.

swim in blood and give it its color.
Gradually that child loses interest

WILL YOU HELP SAVE ON LIFE.

The situation in the Near East is
critical and the needs for funds to
save the women and little children of
Armenia from death by starvation is
so great that The Advertiser has de-
cided to open its columns for their
relief
For humanity crushed, enslaved,
bleeding, We plead; exiles wandering
in the desert, children orphaned,
Christian girls prisoners or slaves in
Moslem harems; stricken nation
amidst implacable foes, its ancestral
territory, made sacred by the martyr
doms of fifteen centuries, seized by
others; homes in ruin, hopes crushed,
lives imperiled. This PROSTATE Armen-
ian nation, still the battle ground of
| contending armies for two years after
the close of the World War, its crops
stolen, 100000 of it's citizens mas
sacred or starved to death, begs of
prosperous America for food enough
to sustain life till the promises en-
bodied in the terms of the Armistice
are fulfilled. Will you help save the
grief stricken survivors, or will you
through indifference, let them die ?
America alone can save them!

forward to Near East headquarters

PALMAFESTA GIRLS TO
HAVE DECORATED CARS

The big feature parade of Palma
fiesta week in Columbia, March 28 tc
April End, will center around the
young ladies now being chosen to rep.
resent their respective counties in the
Statewide contest for Queen of Pal
mafesta. A flower decorated automo.
bile will be provided for each county
in the State, the name of the county
being worked out in flowers in the
decorative scheme. In these cars will
ride 45 young women representing
the 45 South Carolina counties.
The Palmafesta association has just
closed contract with the world fam
Gus Scotch Kilties band of 45 pieces.
This organization will lead the auto
mobile parade of county delegates for
Queen, and will furnish two pro-
grammes of music daily the big week.
The Governor of South Carolina and
his staff have been invited to parti-
pate in this parade.
With every county in South Caro-
lima now actively interested in select
ing delegate in the Queen Contest,
and with more than so daily and week
ly newspapers printing the voting cou-
pons, the Palmafesta association is
planning for the biggest get-together
week in South Cardinals history.
$4,000 will be spent in decorations
and in equipping the State Fair build
ings and grounds, and more than
$4,000 in amusements and other
special features. One especially de-
signed fireworks set piece, the Battle
of Fort Sumter, which is part of the
historical display to be put on by the
international Fireworks Company of
New York, is to cost more than
$1,000.
National manufacturers and auto
mobile dealers throughout South
Carolina are working together with
the object of making the auto, truck
and tractor show the largest ever put
on the South. Interest in the Bet
ter Babies" show is being manifested
in every county of the State, and that
Baby Parade" will be one of the
most interesting attractions. The COM
mittee i'm charge of the Style Show
promises some surprises in the display
of gowns and other fashionable
Spring apparel for women. New York
models will be used in displaying the
new Spring wearables.

In order to still any doubts that
may be in the minds of our readers
as to the responsibility of The Ad-
vertiser in the matter of electing and
sending candidate for Queen of Pal
mafesta to COLUMBIA, we wish to state
that this paper delayed after repeat
ed solicitations to enter the contest,
until the second week, when it was
seen that no other paper in the coun-
ty had taken up the matter.
The Advertiser then opened it's
columns to the contestants in the issue
of February 10th and on the day fol-
lowing notified the proper authorities
by phone, who promptly endorsed the
same.
Now the fact that paper of small
circulation in the county announced
the week following our entrance that
it, too, was running such a contest
need not be taken into consideration
further than to vote an unseemingly
effort to cause trouble.
The Advertiser is in on the ground
floor and is running it's campaign on

WANT RURAL POLICE

There seems to be strong senti-
mcnt among the good people of the
county for return to the rural po-
lice system.
The objection offered to this system
of county police is the increase in
salary expenditure demanded by the
rural police. The answer is made to
this claim that the difference is more
than made up by the greater number
of, arrests and resulting fines The
magistrates constables, it is said, do
