The annual municipal election of
the town of Dover was held Monday

first time in the history of an annual
election there that a negro was voted
for as councilman. A. B. Rufin, negro
was marked on 10 tickets against Viii
Hard J. Hinkle, one of Dover's prom
inent merchants. The vote FOR mayor
and cOuncilmen was as follows: j.
Wallace Woodford, 379; Thomas c.
Roe, 10; Walter D. Ross, 108. Roe,
who was nominated at the citizens
meeting on Friday night, without his
consent, declined to be a candidate,
announcement being made Of that
fact at the opening of the polls.
First district, councilman, James A.

BIG TIMBER DAMAGE BY STORM
Heavy Snow and Sleet Cause $5OO,OOO
Loss in Blackbird Hundred to Trees

Blackbird, January the thirteenth:
After a survey of the various wood
ed sections in Blackbird hundred, To-
cal timbermen and property owners
declare the recent storm has caused
a greater damage to timber than any
ever known here before. They esti-
mate the total loss to be about a half
million dollars. This includes the loss
of trees of all sizes. The loss is felt
more keenly in the destruction of the
older timber that is now ripe and suit
able for sawed lumber. The huge
trees are found to be badly broken in
the tops and branches. In some plac-
es, the large trunks are now cracked
from the ground up and are left in
a badly shivered condition. This will
prevent the trees from being utilized
as lumber as when they are sawed in
the mills, they will slab off into splint-
ers. The young trees that were af-
fected will be unfit, the timbermen
say, for any purpose for a period of
three years. The bush timber, they
also say, is how ruined. Taxes, it is
further pointed out, would soon
amount to more than the actual value
of the latter timber because it would
be from 20 to 80 years at least before
lumber of any size could be procured
even if the bush was not destroyed
by the storm. Other trees that are
of mixed oaks and not of large
growth, have been left in a topless
condition. Timbermen are attempting
to save these trees for piings of var
iOus lengths, as unless they are culled
before decay sets in, they will be a
total loss. Younger timber ranging
from to Is years old, is also found
to be severely damaged due to the
heavy weight of the ice frozen to the
branches and crowns for several days.
The trees as a rule have been left in
either a broken or badly bent posi-
tion that it is doubtful whether they
will ever straighten again. While the
real worth of this timber is not con-
siderable at present, most of it is of
good quality and will greatly hamper
the supply Of the next generation.

either be sketched or the pictures
may be cut from advertisements. AS
the guests arrive the hostess asks
them to close their eyes minute
while she pins a cherry, picture side
out, on their backs. By the time
every one has discovered by means
of question and answer the secret of
what is on his back the fun will have
commenced.

back out of the way and ask some
one to play lively tune on the pia-
no. Suddenly the music stops, and.

the boys and girls drop down on the

penalty of being left out until a new
round of the game.

in a circle with the exception of one
who stands in the center holding a
small flag. He whirls Ground on his
toes, then, suddenly stopping. he
points the flag at some one, exc1aim-
ing, Red, White, and Blue, Red
The one pointed at must answer with
the name of something of the color
last mentioned before the other per-
son can count ten. Failing, he takes
his place in the center and the game
goes on.
The circle of chairs should be re-
tanned for the next game, which is
called STIRRING the Cherry Pie" The
one stirring stands in the center with
a wooden bowl and. spoon. When the
fancy seizes him he taps one of the
players lightly with his wooden
spoon. The stirrer must return his
spoon to the bowl left in the center
and make a dash for the vacant chair
which the one he has just touche ed
leaves. If the second player can sue
ceed in reaching the spoon and touch
ing the other with it before he cap
lures the seat, the first stirrer must
remain in the center once more, and
so on through the game.

Answers to Food Questions

the best food for you to eat just now.
My son, 3s years old. has what the
doctors call an acid stomach. Will
you please tell me what foods he
should eat?-Mrs. Il. M. b.
A good diet for too much acid in
the stomach may be chosen from
the following list: Cream of vege-
table soups, purees of vegetables,
such as potatoes, greens. canned
corn and peas, carrots, beans and
squash. Macaroni with butter, poach-
ed or boiled eggs, cereals, especially
the faxed. puffed and shredded va
rieties, cereal gruels, breads made Of
Drowned flour, crisp toast, sweet
fruits, such as dates: very ripe ba-
nanas.. sweet apples, buttermilk,
matted milk, unsweetened cocoa, des-
serts of ices or sherbets, custards
with very little sugar, olive oil with
the salads and malt honey may all
be included in your sons diet.
Will you give a diet to overcome
constipation? I have been going to
a doctor and he says / have gall
stones. / don't want an operation
| and am taking olive oil. / am As
years old.-Mrs. L. D.
Water should be drunk freely, about
five pints daily. Food should be
taken in small quantities at frequent
intervals, serving four meals day
rather than three. Two larger meals
| and two small meals, the latter COM
posed chiefly of fruit, make a good
meal plan. For these two meals fruit
| should be practically the only food
taken. If this does not agree, potato
puree or rice Cruel may be eaten.
For the larger meals the diet must
| be carefully planned and made w
of very digestible foods, hot dishes
| of strained cereals, eggs if they have
green vegetables, and salads with
plenty of oil.
Will you please send me sugges-
| tions for home study of nutrition
problems and for daily menus for a
14-month old baby?-Mrs. G. B.
| l am holding the addresses Of all
| those who wish help about home
study of nutrition until we have fin
ished the preparation of some educa
| tional material, which will be sen,
| to every one.
AS to the menus for the baby l5 ia

SOURCE-Given name

The name of Hennessy doesn't look
as though it came from the same
source as Maginnis. or MacCainsh, or
Angus, but it does.
Among the Gaels of Ireland, and
those who at an early period crossed
over to Scotland and settled among
the Highlands, the given name of
"Aongus" (from "aon," excellent. and
"gus," strength) was a popular one,
and as a result 1t has given rise to
several clan names and a still greater
number of family names in both
countries.
In Scotland there was the "Clan
Aonghais" (MacInnez). In Ireland
there were the 'MacAonghuis" (Ma-
ginnis), whose name already has been
explained, and also the "MacAongusa"
(MacHennessy), a branch of the Clan
Colgan.
