That Spartanburg Is O. changed
town since the coming lof Billy Sunday
is the opinion Of Spartanburg people
who are in position to know. 1T would
be impossible to establish the good
that has been accomplished in Spar
tanburg as a result Of the Sunday
meeting here" said Mr.. Pierre H. Fike,
city editor Of the Spartanburg Herald
who was asked about the mat
ter. From a practical standpoint the
meeting has been a wonderful boost
to Spartanburg. Think of the adver-
tising value. Hundreds of people from
all sections Of the state have come to
Spartanburg on account of the pres
ence Of Mr.. Sunday. They have look
ed the city over while here and form
ed their impressions. The majority OF
them are people who would not have
been attracted to lSpartanburg by any
means other than the meeting of the
great evangelist But, ;" continued Mr..
Fike, I'm afraid I'd be a physical
wreck personally if this meeting went
on another month. The strain on
newspaper men has been something
terrible" 5E F
People of Spartanburg and the
county have been living better and
cleaner and straighter since Billy Sun-
day came here" was the comment OF
Charles III. Garrison, staff correspond
end of the Greenville News covering"
the Sunday meeting, II have heard OF
instances .wnere people have paid old
debts of long standing: where old
feuds have been forgotten; where peo-
pie have begun to renew interest in
church work and other instances of
good that has come from the meeting.

mighty scarce since Billy Sunday
started preaching and other forms Of
vice have been checked very materi-
ally"

"York Moose Lodge, deserved great

ciates the business and am glad that

A most unusual incident at the
meeting for men only Sunday after
noon occurred when trusty on the
Spartanburg chain gang-a white man
with only ione leg, hobbled UP to Mr..
Sunday and gave him his hand, prom
ising to lead a better life in future.
There were about eight convicts in
attendance on the service for '.men
only" all OF them wearing stripes. They
had been allowed to attend the service
by the county authorities and they sat
together on the right Of the evangelist
When the invitation from Mr.. Sunday
to come on was extended the one
legged convict dragged himself for
ward on his crutch and Billy Sunday
grasped his hand just as hard as he
grasped that of the prosperous looking
business man who went just ahead Of
him. 1t was indeed an odd sight to
see the men in stripes sitting In the
audience and evidently just as much
interested and concerned as anybody
else"

. o..
To hear Billy Sunday on Sunday
one must go to the. big tabernacle near
the court house on Magnolia street at
least an hour before the service is
scheduled to- begin, If YOU go two
hours before the service you'll stand a
better chance Of getting in. Those
who went over on the Moose Special
were wise to that fact and practically
every one of them went early and. thus
avoided the rush. While Dictator j..
Ernest Stroup and other Moose offi-
cials did everything possible to make
reservations for the party in advance,
it couldn't be done. Still IL any per-
son who went on the special didn't
hear Mr.. Sunday, the representative Of
The Yorkville Enquirer didn't hear Of
it. But it is. a strenuous days work
for any person to hear Billy twice on
a Sunday. ~ s3

Most of them, however got busy get
ting rooms at the various hotels for
the day and in getting ready to get
something to eat. Spartanburg res
taurants, 1t was learned, have been
doing a rushing business since Billy
Sunday & Company came to town. 1t
was estimated that Mr.. Sunday
preached to $4,000 people at the three
services Sunday with an additional
5000 turned away for lack of seats.
Of the vast number it was estimated
hat at least 5000 Of the whites were

GOOD ORIENTAL
RUGS NOW ON SALE,
PRICES ARE AT PEAK
tRy Assoc.ated Press,

Wy A6oO--dAE0 LAOoSJ 4
CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept 10. =
Good Oriental rugs in the local market
r hard to get nowadays, and the prin-
fcipal reason is lack OF transportation
facilities from the producing centers.
Hence prices on good stock are being
maintained.
4 The city abounds in rugs, however,
the demand from the United States
and England giving a stimulus to the
trade, but many are of poor quality.
This grade is cheap, and there are
few buyers.
When the Russians got into the eau
casus the authorities confiscated large
stocks of good quality. AS these rugs
cost them nothing, they sent them to
Constantinople for sale at very low
prices. The first shipments from
Batum included some of the finest
Kasacks ever seen in the public mar
ket, and the buyers will not have a
similar opportunity again. Later,
when the best stocks had been exhaust
ed, the Russian authorities exported
what may be termed the sweepings of
the rug districts, and most of the
Shirvans received here were of very
poor quality. Prices on these goods
now are low.
A large number of Beluchistan rugs
came to Constantinople early in 1922
and we're all sold at once at a fairly
Cow price. But one had difficulty in
finding 80 good pieces in a thousand,
and not than three or four pieces
Eof what private buyers call blue" Bel
Fuchistan.
Germany is out of the market, the
import of Oriental rugs being prohibi
ted, Italy bought a limited quantity OF
"a poorer quality, and Switzerland and
Czechoslovakia also took a few.

MURRETTE
The celebrated novel, Blood and
Sand" by Vicente Balasco I5anez.
author Of the tremendously successful
-Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
has been pictured by Paramount, and
is being shown at the Murrette the
atre all this week. Rodolph Valentino
is the star and Lila Lee and Nita
Naldi are featured.
This is an announcement of interest
to book lovers and those who follow
the artistic advance of the p~hotoplay.
For Blood and Sand" an exotic, col
orful story of Spain, is said to be even
more compellingly Interesting than
vas its great predecessor by the same
author.
Blood and Sand" has another IN
usual point of appeal in that it is the
first starring picture of Rodolph Val
entino whose rise to film success has
been without ~prescedent. 1t is a Fred
Niblo production, directed by the man
who made The Three Musketeers."
Assurance that the IbaneZ novel has
been correctly interpreted is offerd
with the presentation of June Mathis
as adaptor. She wrote the scenario
for THE -Four Horsemen of the Apoc-
alypse." Mr.. Valentino is supported
in Blood and Sand by Lila Lee
and Nita Naldi, and a picked company
of Paramount stock players.

THE POINT OF VIEW

'To look out of the window of a house on a quiet street at 7 a. m. these days is a more or less cheer less, uninteresting proceeding. Some times to be sure, the glow in the eastern sky is colorful and worth while, but mostly there is apt to be only a dull, dreary, cold white land scape, devoid of traces of life and action" So writes Editor Hurlburt in the Winsted "Citizen" And yet it does not sound just like his work.
 We wonder where Editor Hurlburt lives and why he lives there, if so pessimistic a view confronts him upon arising every morning. Continuing our ruminations, the thought strikes us that perhaps the apparent lack of life and action is due entirely to an unsympathetic point of view or the inability to see beneath the surface.
 After living in Winsted many years, as we'll as other much smaller places, we have yet to discover a hamlet that is devoid of life and

THE CROW

A short but interesting article in one of the leading magazines, deals with the habits of the crow as the writer has found him in various parts of the country over a period of fifteen years. One of the amazing facts in the article is that among over 100000 photographs on file in New York City, there was only one of a crow. So wise is this bird that it seems all the efforts of the major ity of photographers have been thwarted.
 In some parts of the country the crow is considered a nuisance, d1e to the damage he is claimed to do to crops; in others he is protected by law because it is claimed that he annually c0n2ames millions of in jurious grubs, bugs and other insects.
 That two states which adjoin one another as do COnn4cticut and Mass achUsotts, should have laws regarding this bird which are the direct oppos- ite to the other seems strange. If the crow is worth protecting in Massachusetts, why not in this state also? In Oklahoma hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent to exterminate the crow, but this is due to the fact that literally millions of crows migrate to that state every fall, causing untold damage.
