among the Pioneers, the Lords Proprie-
tors, Revolutionary history, scenes from
the Civil War, Reconstruction times
with the Red Shirt Riders, are to be
reproduced with every effort after
historic accuracy.
Much detailed research has been
done under the direction Of DR.. j. z.
Walmsley, head Of the College depart
ment of history. All costumes are
designed to show exact style Of dress
worn in the various periods of history.
While some of these costumes have
been ordered from professional costume
designers, most of them are being de-
signed and made in the domestic art
classes at the College. The attractive
gowns Of the ladies', the brilliantly
colored uniforms Of the British red
coats, and red shirt riders, with the be-
loved Confederate grays. and the blue
coated Yankees, will add much to the
remarkable scenic effects throughout
the progress of the Pageant;
In addition to the historic episodes
there are to be symbolic interludes
suggesting the spirits brooding over the
old Palmetto state.
A fine setting for the Pageant ha:
been found at the foot Of a wooded
slope Of the campus, and a large
stadium seating three thousand people
is being erected to overlook the, pag'
cant grounds.
Special railroad accommodations ant
rates will be granted for the. occasion

 The conclusion that some drivers make long detours in order to join the stream of vehicles that flows past the shops, with their currents of smartly- attired women moving in and out or passing to gaze at show windows, was based by the traffic squad on percent ages. Questioning of 1925 drivers during several periods in the course of a day recently developed that only 23 per cent. of those canvasSed had any real reason for being on Fremont street Of the v per cent. that could save time by using less congested but many were found to have gone out of their way to be in on the fashion show.

NEGROES NOVEL LIQUOR YARN GOT HIM
 INTO JAIL

Charleston, w. Va, Nov. 21-A new xse, in a medicinal sense, for alcohol has been brought to the notice of local law officers.
 When information reached Magis- trate W. G. Jarrett that several moon shine drinking parties recently had been held in the woods in Coal Hol- low, on the outskirts of the city, he sent one of his deputies to investigate. The officer had not proceeded far up the hollow when he spied a negro with a suspicious bag on his back. Stop ping the bearer and running his hand into the mouth of the bag, the officer drew out a ha1f-ga1lon glass fruit jar filled with moonShine.
 Asked what he was doing with the contraband goods, the negro replied that he was taking it to a "sick man to wash his feet in.' He didn't eX- plain the nature of the 'sick man's'' ailment. He is now serving $1OO worth of jail sentence.

 Ninety per cent of all disease is preventable, so doctors say. Eat simple food, exercise wisely, sleep sufficiently, and-what is vitaIly inn portant-make sure of the daily, regular, thorough elimination of body waste, and the chances are nine to one that you will keep well, work efficiently and enjoy life. Bowel elimination of food and tissue waste IS an-important. But in case of ir- regularity, disordered or imperfect action do not make the common mis- take of taking harsh, violently acting medicines, with the idea of forcing the bowels to act. Nature believes in mild methods She responds best to persuasion.
 So in selecting simple remedy to action, you should not use harsh or violently acting remedies, no matter how much has been claimed for them You should choose some we'll known, time tested, trial proven remedy, that has made its reputation by being used for many years, by all sorts of people, all over the world. Take Beecham's Pills for example. Beecham's is a household word, has been for many generations. Beech am's Pills is a household remedy, has beenfor over half a acenturyPeople mot only take Beechamas but recom- mend Beecham's to their friends- Their use is handed down from father to son or from mother to daughter, from ono generation to another.

 The treat>of the association was the address of Dr. J. R. Grant, State Agent for Rural Schools. This was very able discussion on the responsi- bility of the teacher. An attempt to review it here could not give justice to it. It was very plain, direct, and broad-minded, the kind that makes a teacher examine herself and pass judgment as to whether the commun- ity should be congratulated because they have her for a teacher.
 Dr. Grant is surely one of the strongest school men of the state, the product of little farm in Pope coun- ty, Arkansas. He has taught in every kind of school from the one-teacher school to the University. He was on the faculty of the University for sev- eral years, going from that to his present position. There is strong talk among school people Of persuading him to offer for state superintendent. at the next election.
