Summerton, S. c., Jan. I. 1921

Summerton, S. c., Jan. 1, 1921.
10 the Editor of The Manning Times:
Il Several days since, Mr.. T.. H.
Gentry and the writer, motored from
Surimerton to Hartsville, where Mr..
; Gentry's daughter, Miss Mary, was in
attendance as student upon Coker
1 College, the object of the trip being
y to fetch Miss Mary back to Summer
ton for the Christmas season, and in
Scidentally to afford the writer an op-
s p6rtunity of seeing again his Univer-
d sity class-mate, DR.. Skies, the Presi-
3 dent Of Coker College. The trip from
Sumnerton to Hartsville covered a
distance of about seventy miles and
required about three hours each way
Within which to make the trip. Harts-
,yilIs is beautiful town in Darling
FonE County, situated on the State
highway system from McBee to Flor
6pce, with a splendid system of water
+ and electric lights. and while the
streets are not paved, at the same
l3time} the streets are wide and we'll
planned, and it only requires q few
hours. for the visitor to determine
that some genius had a hand in the
making Of Hartsville. The greatest
institution in Hartsville is of course
the Coker family, because the Coker
family created Coker College and the
Coker family put Hartsville on the
map.
The finest asset to any town, COM
m1unity, State or Nation, is some in
dlvidual or some family, which will
dedicate himself or itself to making
the town, or the State ur he Nation
better place to live in, al. the writ
er has always had scant patience with
those pious old codgers who are
always busy about laying up treas
ures in heaven, and forgetting all the
while the community in which they
live. The Coker family has put into
operation in Hartsville a practical
religion, which has for it's object the
growing Of better grade of cotton,
putting OH the market better breed
of cettle, and the furnishing of a high
standard Of education of the young
woman of South Carolina. It was a
, fine view for the writer to sit on the
campus at Coker College and watch
the large number of automobiles
which appeared on the campus for
the purpose of taking different girls
to their respective homes for the
Christmas season, and there is no rea-
son in the world why Coker College
should not educate every young lady
in the State, who lives within radius
.Aof one hundred miles from Hartsville
Col1er College is not denominations
al College and all girls who attend the
institution have the same rights and
privileges, pay the same price, and
upon proper application receive as
good an education as can be received
from any other College in the United
States. All denominational schools
and Colleges in South Carolina or in
any other State, are clearly uncon-
stitutional institutions, in that they
gyant special privileges to the sons
and daughters of those ministers Of
the gospel who maintain these de-
nominations, and special privileges Of

AUTOMOBILES HIS HOBBY

Bristol, Va, Tenn, Jan. BIAS
com G. Akcrs, cashier of the Bank
OF Clinchburg, at Clinchburg, Va,
who was arrested early this morn
ing on a charge of having appro
prlated $28,400 of the banks funds
was released this afternoon on
$4,000 bond furnished by relatives.
Akers was held few hours in the
jail at Abingdon before his release
was secured.
Officials of the Bank of Clinch-
burg were in Bristol today try
ing to locate some of the thirty
SIX. automobiles Akcrs told them he
had owned in the past year. At
the time of hi sarrcst he had five
cars, all Of which have been taken
over by the bank. Heads of the
bank declare that. they doubted
Akcrs' honesty some time ago, and
that they questioned him concern
ing the large number of automo-
biles he owned. He is said to have
explained that he had made a num-
ber of profitable deals buying and
selling cars and that his original
investment was a comparatively
low figure.
Akers is a member of promi-
ncnt family, a college graduate and
formerly an Office in the army
Theft of the bank funds was re-
vealcd by his voluntary confession.

Washington, Jan. 1.-Much of
promise in the new year is seen by
Secretaries Hoover and Weeks, who
IN statements issued tonight de-
clared the American people could
look forward into 1922 as year
of recupcration.
"Considering that we have gone
through the greatest war in his

that we have passed through in
the great reimbursement of 1921" :"
said Secretary Hoover, 1--WE have a
lot to be cheerful over and we have

RYE PASTURE SAVES FEED.

Clemson College, Dec. 27-If wo
have plenty of Bermuda pasture in
summer and plenty of rye pasture in
winter our feed problem for cattle,
sheep and idle horses is practically
solved, thinks Prof. l.. V. Starkey,
chief Of the animal husbandry divi-
sion, who says that by this combina-
ton we can greatly reduce the cost of
producing our livestock.
Some people have the idea that rye
pasture is not much good. AS a mat
ter of fact, it is one Of our best and
most reliable winter pastures for all
classes Of livestock. When the rye
plant is only 5 to 10 inches high it
analyZcS almost as high in protein
per 100 pounds of dry matter as does
cottonsecd meal. In addition to it's
value as feed it is splendid cover
crop. The two~fold function which it
serves rs pasture and cover crop has
won for it many friends among the
progressive farmers Of this country.

all plant lice that occur on the plant
above the grohnd can be controlled by
spraying with Il solution Of nicotine
Sulfate, soap and water. The solution
rs made up as follows:
water Cone ordinary paid 2 1-2
gallons; nicotine Sulfate or black
leaf 40 tca3poonful; soap, | inch
cube.
DO Not Use Soap Containing Tar or
Naptha.
Tho soap (any kind that does not
contain tar or naptha) should be dis
solved in hot water before adding it
to the solution.
fifty gallon batch is made up AS
follows:
Water, 50 gallons;ncotin sulfatc
Gao pcrcenD ounces (G tablcspoons)
soap, 2 pounds.

taincd from local seed dealers or
druggists. If il cannot be purchased
locally, it can be obtained from the
manufacturers, list of which may be
obtained upon request.
In am emergency, when no nicotine
Is available, the next best thing is a
