PLANNING LIFE.
Nothing to the Claim of Setting the
Marks In Early Life.

Nothing to the Claim of Setting the
Marks In Early Life.
When you read the story of man
who sat down in his early twenties and
planned his, life and then developed
the plan-do not let it worry you.
No such thing ever happened.
The truth is, hardly anybody sees
very far ahead.
And the bigger a man is the quicker
he is to admit that the final realization
of his efforts surprise him as much as
anyone else.
OF course, all of us have vision. I
don't suppose there ever was Il small
business man who did not see himself
some day in the role of big business
man. But few of them get there by
any route thought out in advance.
Most men grow because they must in
order to survive. The business pushes
them more than they push the bust
ness. They can't quit growing with
out sacrificing all that they have gain
ed. It's a case of go ahead or go
backward, and so they choose to go
ahead.
When they get old some of them like
to have the magazine writers tell how
they figured it all out in advance. But
they are laughing up their sleeves all
the time.
Sometimes a successful man comes
out with the truth, as witness this,
written by Fuller E. Galloway, pros
porous Southern manufacturer and
banker.
You can generally see just n little
ahead and that's all you need to see
Most of the big men in this country
never stop to think out where they in
tend to wind up. They are too busy
doing the winding. in Type
Metal.

NO CONN ECTloN
Ku Klux Klan is Declared an Un- Ma
sonic Organization.

sonic Organization.
A letter declaring the "Ku Klux
Klan an un- Masonic organization, ut
terly without Masonic support or SYM
pathy," has been sent to all Masonic
lodges Of the state by Arthur D..
Prince, grand master of the Massa-
chusetts grand lodge.
The letter made public in Boston last
Friday says that as n grand lodge,
I'VE would take no interest in this or
ganization, but for the claim made by
its officers and organizers that It's
member ship is largely Masonic and
that it has Masonic approval and sup
port
"This statement" Mr.. Princes let
ter continues, ''is absolutely false a.
the Klan has no connection with and
neither does it have the support Of any
Masonic jurisdiction"
The avowed principles of the Klan,
Mr.. Prince asserts, violate Masonic
law at every point and it would be i'm
possible for me to conceive of a Mason
who could so far forget his Masonic
teachings as to affiliate with an organ
ization which advocates taking the
law into it's own hands, condemning
men and women in secret trials, and
imposing the punishment of the whip,
the tar bucket or unlawful banish-
ment."
The letter after asking how long it
will be before the law abiding people
of this commonwealth visit dire pun
ishment upon those who forget or flout
the sovereignty of the law" concludes
with a declaration that no Masonic
temple or apartments must be used for
the Klan's purposes.

on business-the A. r. P.'s had-and
Rev. Henry Stokes, the well-known
popular Methodist divine had joined
the party in a friendly greeting pre-
vious to the calling of the business
meeting to order.
Somebody happened to remark about
the anti-bellum days when if mine host
failed to set his decanter before MS
callers they felt warranted in taxing
such q breach as notice that their
presence was not welcome. All hao
heard of those days and they had also
heard of the days when even the
preacher considered it all right to take
his toddy with the rest of them, pro-
vided only he kept straight enough 10
know pretty we'll what he was doing
WELL ] can go further than that,
said Rev. Stokes with an air of friend
Nv banter toward the Seceders. L
have it on the authority Of Prof wal
lace of Wofford college that it is
historical fact that in a certain YORK
county Presbyterian congregation seri-
Gus objection was made to an other
wise acceptable subject for the elder
ship on the ground that he did not
make his own liquor"
1T looked like pretty hard punch'
but Rev DIR. ]. l.. Oates took 1t With
out finching and proceeded to tell TINS,
which he declared was also authentic:
1T was in one of the upper South
Carolina counties, l do not remember
whether l ever knew which; but any
way it was in the old days when civil
disputes among church members were
more frequently referred to the session
for settlement:
"One member claimed that another
member owed him a debt and refused
to pay. After a hearing of both sides
the session decided that the debt was
Justly due and must be paid. The debt
or acquiesced in the finding and told
the session he would pay; but as soon
as he got outside he told the creditor
that he did not owe it and would not
pay it. The creditor took the case
back with the same result, and same
promise of the delinquent debtor, fol-
lowed by another Reputation, and the
case went up again.
"This time the session decided that
the defendant owed the plaintiff six
teen gallons of whisky and that he be
suspended from the privileges of the
church until the amount was paid. The
whisky was soon after turned over 10
the plaintiff"
There" said DR.. Stokes. ut was
with some hesitation that 1 told my
story; but now l feel very comforta-
ble."

The Prolific Boil Weeul. - Have
been thinking ever since Mr.. William
REYNOLDS, district manager OF the
Southern Cotton Oil Company made
that good address at the Joffre hotel
a week or so ago before the Rotarians
and farmers, about the possibilities In
the way of progeny of a single papa
and mamma boil weevil. Said Mr.
REYNOLDS: "An industrious pair OF
weevils will in a single season become
the parents of six sets of children.
Each set consists of 200. These child
rem in turn Immediately get busy
raising large families as do the grand
children, and by arithmetical progress
sion before the scar and yellow or ap-
preaching winter comes there will be
a brood of 12,75O,OOO bugs" ...
1 figure that with cotton stalks
spaced inches apart in the row and
rows 3 feet apart there will be about
26. 400 stalks of cotton to the acre.
And if these weevils are properly
prorated there would be nearly 500
weeyils to each cotton stalk.
Now, of course, Mr.. Reynolds knew
that weevils could not possibly in
crease in the manner pointed out. He
only said should each weevil egg be-
come an adult and none meet disas-
ter in the making. Fortunately a very
small per cent. of weevils ever reach
maturity.-Monroe, IN c. Enquirer.

MEN SEEK WISDOM
Descendants of King Solomon Come
to the States.

to the States.
Matthew, Mark and Luke, described
as wards of the acting king of Abys-
snia and members of the royal house,
hold, have come to America, says the
New York Sun. One wonders where
John is, but there's no need to won
der over Biblical royal names popping
up in Abyssinia, for the monarchs OF
that ancient and romantic land claim
descent from King Solomon and the
queen of Sheba.
Yes, it is gravely recorded in the
Abyssinian books of kings that the
queen of Sheba, whose kingdom lay
in the mountainous region of what
was once called Ethiopia, presented
King Solomon with q man, who was
named MeneliL--ever since a royal
name in Ethiopia.
SO it is possible that in the veins
of the dusky Matthew, Mark and
Luke, who were presented to Presi-
dent Harding the other day, flows the
mingled blood of the reputed wisest
of kings and the African queen who
came ITO prove him with hard ques-
tions." And she gave him, you re-
member, IAN hundred talents of gold,
and of spices very great store, and
precious stones" all of which pleasant
articles are among the products of
Abyssinia today.
Like the famous queen, Matthew,
Mark and Luke are on pilgrimage
in search Of wisdom and they are car
rying their quest to an American COL
lege, where they hope to become b.
AIS and know q number of things
that Solomon forgot to tell the queen
of Sheba. They have selected the COL
legc President Harding attended in
