T,s,e story Of Cassina tea IS TO be

end. hers are now at he factory

sditcheIl. government tea ex-
saert near Mount Pleasant, Two
i ;Is.s.ame essmen, federal film experts
sys.o are making exterior and inter
!, ,,;or views Of this fascinating enter

made in Washington, including
some Of the early Indian phases OF
the story. so that it should not De
many weeks before the whole sub
siect viii be placed before a great
audience of people interested in
Bacle Sans scientific men
sachievements.
Messrs. Evans and Cramer ar
rived yesterday from Washington
With their cameras to make the
scassina tea scenes. They have al
ready outlined dramatic story OF
THIS interesting experiment, and
with a historical setting. and
some magnificent scenic touches.
the whole story is going to be OF
special appeal to the public, 1t is
assured. Mr.. MitcheIl's demon
stration of. the commercial pos
sibiiities of cassina tea and cas-
sina syrup is beginning to attract
vide attention. and his visitors in
ciude scientific men. capitalists and
farmers, as wen as casual callers.
AS a tea expert, Mr.. Mitchell is nat
ionalIy known and when ne de-
cIared that the Christmas berry
plant or cassina leaf contained
caffeine. to the strength of roasted
coffee, and less tannin, much less,
than tea, while the leaf could be
cured and brewed into a. beverage
or converted int GA syrup base OF
superior qualities. with COM
meraal value worth while, his
words not only attracted much at
tention and respect, but secured
proper supprt financially from the
powers that be. and for several
months. he has been scientifically
manufacturing cassina tea. both
black and green. at low cost. near
Charleston.
Mr.. Mitchell has produced some
5000 pounds of this new tea,
which will be shortly placed on the
market, both locally and about the
country. Some of it will find its
way into South America, TO COM
pete with teas there. Many
Charleston people have sampled
this new beverage. and have found
it very palatable. 1t has advan-
tages over ordinary tea. AS an
iced beverage it is particularly
pleasing, and hot cassina tea IS
fragrant and mild.
The Christmas berry is very
plentiful in this section of the
country. and is easily grown. 1t
is believed that Mr.. Mitchell's cas-
sina factory is going to induce 4
more general production of the cas-
sina tree. and mean the establish
naent later of factories at con-
venient points. Just as soon as it
becomes generally known that the
tea is marketable and can be
cheapIy produced. this new indus
try should find many hackers here.

Washington, Oct 26 The Unit
ed States probably will be repnk
sented at the Near East peaSsS
conference by an official observer.
There is virtually no chance that
the Washington government VIII
participate directly however, or be>
a signatory of the treaty of peace
to be evolved. sss
Decision Of allied governments
to invite American participated al
party to the negotiations, it can be
said on authority, finds the atti-
tude Of the Washington govern
nlent unchanged. While the reply
can be formulated only after IL
has been received, there is no rea-
son to doubt the nature OF the
American answer The American
policy Of standing aloof from Eu-
ropean political tangles has un-
dergone no change.
Paris dispatches indicate that
the invitation is to be presented
to Secretary Hughes through the
British, French and Italian embas-
sies in Washington. =
That it will be met with appre-
ciation of the Importance attached
by these powers to their proposal
that the United States share in the
difficult task before the Lusanne
conference, is to be expected AT
the same time, however. the emz
,bassies Will be very fully advised
that as a non belligerent the Uni
ted States feels that it can not
have any direct share in a peace
conference.
American interests are too deep9
involved in the final solution OF
the problem of the Turkish straits,
however. and also in the immuni
ties that American citizens shah
enjoy in Turkish territory bosh
in commercial and religious mat
ters, to permit the -WashingtoI
government to stand wholly aside.

Ice Cream Factory for Sumter
Assured Fact.

Mr.. L. J. Corning, president of the
Buttercup Ice Cream Company. OF
Hamlet, N. c., the concern that is
to establish the ice cream factory
in Sumter has left for northern
markets to buy the refriseratins
plant and other machinery and
equipment for this new enterprise.
A building has been purchased and
other arrangements being made to
be ready for business early next
year.
Secretary Reardon is still seek
ing information about how much
coal cinders can be had in Sum-
ter. but he doesn't want the Gin
ders to put in ice cream. he wants
to locate cinder concrete block
factory here. but. it looks like no
one in Sumter has coal cinders,
not for sale any how. He doesn't
need any money for this proposed
enterprise as he has all the mon
ey he needs. and, is good bor-
rover from banks-just cinders
are needed.

MANILA, Oct. 7.-Governor General Leonard Wood has pardoned 200 aged prisoners from Bilibid recently, and many of them, after wandering over town all day showed up at the police station for something to eat. There, next morning they identified their be- ,ongings taken from them at the time If their arrest more years ago than Rip Van Wrinkle slept. Then they found their way back to old homes i'll the provinces where they will seek asylums with relatives for the short time they have left to live.
 Governor Wood in pardoning them' said they were too old to do anyone any harm and it was cruel to keep them in prison longer. He is clearing out Bilibid, benefiting the men by so doing and saving the government much expense.

BUSINESS TREND
up IN ALL Lines
Building, Autos and Steel
Show Big Advance; Plenty
Of Work.

What change has taken place in
the business affairs OF this country
Not more than n year z everyone
was oeploring the fact that there
were at least 5000. 900 people out of
work. Some stated ever a higher
figure Now employers are calling
for help in some sections, saying that
the restrictions placed on immigra.
ton have caused a shortage of I,so0.-
900 workmen-
In retail lines 1t is predicted that
the merchants of the lines will expe-
rience a greater volume If Christ
10 per cent. In view OF all tine sur
rounding circumstances those in the
retail field are advised to order and
have their requirements shipped at
once.
One very good reason for the ad-
vice to buy now is the rail car short
age which already has become a fac
tor. This will be more Of a disturb
ing element in November when the
peak Of the car shortage is expect
ed to occur. 1. will reach n crisis
with an actual shortage OF approx
mately 10000 cars. This dearth Of
freight cars has a logical basis when
one stops to consider that there Is
now three times as much pig iron be-
ing turned out in the United States
as was produced In the same time
last year.
In the automotive industry which
today directly affects a greater UNI
Der Of industries than IN other man
ufacturing enterprise, h same condl'
tons hold. Statistics indicate a 1922
production OF over 100000 cars, a
clear gain to the industry Of $780,
900 cars. This business represents a
total of almost $4,000, 100000. OF
which tires represent approximately
o~ne-fourth. according TO Miller tire
statisticians.
The business trend In all lines is
distinctly upward anc with no very
tangible element in sight to offer
even a temporary setback.
Building permits in the country
have been SO per cent greater than
last year and of course supplies such
as lumber. etc. have to be shipped
as well as iron and steel from the
mills. As a result OF this increased
activity in nearly all lines. railroad
shipments are greater than hey were
last year by II per cent
