Scheming Horse Trader
Is Flying High In Area

A high-flying horse trader, passing
worthless checks and leaving in
complete livestock deals in his wake,
is being sought by N.rth ana South
Carolina authnrlaias
Lawrence Hayes. ex-conyict who
recently completed a prison sentence
for larceny, is the man hunted for
pulling the fly-by-night deals.
Hayes is a resident of the Rowland
section, a few miles from Dillon,
S. C.
Two deals were pulled in the Ia
Dor City area in rapid-fire order, At
Carthage the alleged swindler bought
a team of horses and a team of
mules, lulling his victim to sleep
by giving a check, taking the horses
and promised to return a couple
'of days later for the mules. He did
not return. P.S-The check was
worthless.)
Later in the day the horses were
left with farmer here. The horse
trader returned for one horse on
the following Monday and brought
the animal to a Tabor City dealer
where sale was made, but only
$3.50 was collected. He still has a
credit but he'll probably never at
tempt to collect.
Hayes then is alleged to have
moved over into South Carolina
near Loris and put up $1,000 check
for a team of mules. He claimed
he couldn't write but he made "his
mark" and carted away the hand
some team which he brought to
Tabor City. Tabor City's 100000
a-year traffic in the mules business
again got a slight boost, the horse
trader swapping his mules for a
team of horses and $4,000. He took
the s275.OO but be left the horses.
Now the various persons involved
in the deals are trying to get mat
tiers Strengthened out and they're
also looking for Hayes.
Meanwhile, law enforcement Of
ficials are warning farmers of the
two states to be on guard against
trades with a smooth-talkins check
passer.

Big Yam Year
Now Evident

Sweet potato dealers anticipate a
1916 crop in excess Of one million
bushels for the Tabor City market
it was learned yesterday.
Tabor City, claiming the title OF
the worlds largest sweet potato
market, was living up to its reputa.
ton this week with sweet potatoes
pouring into the city at rate OF
around 10000 bushels per day.
Favorable weather conditions dur
ing the past two weeks have &C
Grated the flow of potatoes and the
season peak may be reached about
the first of next month.
Mammoth curing and storage
houses are in operation now taking
care of the influx of this compare
lively new farm crop.
Yield per acre in this entire sweet
potato growing area is reported 10
be among the best on record. Ihere
was every indication that net profit
for the farmer would compare favor
ably with that of tobacco.
Figures on file in the office OF
the executive secretary Of the Ia"
Dor City Merchants Association snow
that the Tabor City market paid out
approximately $1,000, last year and
growers are expected to reap a SINH
Lar harvest in dollars during this
season.
Market conditions appear favor
able, although lacking the firmness
which prevailed last season.. Fluctu-
ations on the New York market
were generally credited with respon'
sibility for this situation.
Farmer satisfaction with both
production yield and income was
evident in this immediate area.

annoy Others. They soon find that
they have appeased a young tyrant
who has become unappeasable.
Crying is always hard to bear, but
by far the worst is the bad-tem-
pered yelling of the spoiled child
whose mother always gives in to
him if he screams long enough.
One situation genuinely distress
sing to child occurs when he
becomes accustomed to a special
hour-with Daddy perhaps-and
then an outsider comes who inter-
feres with this special time. The
child's efforts to get Daddy's usual
attention result in his being dis
missed. if not sent to bed.
Sosnethia1 He Likes
IF YOU give child the impression
that company" means being in
terfered with. you are riskinR
chronic misbehavior every time a
visitor appears.
The best aid to a child's behavior
before company is to set aside a
few special things to occupy him.
These things should not be excit-
ingly new-and therefore demand
ing of Mothers attention - but
something he likes to play with
and has not yet tired of.
One excellent company idea,
especially for a girl, is to let her
share in her mothers tea party.
When you offer your visitors tea.
let the child have a little teacup
of her own and a plate of cookies.
Also make it part of "play"
that her manners be like
yours.
Remember that the value of sug-
gestion works two ways. When
company is coming, it's unwise to
warn the child beforehand with a
series of "don't's" and, by this
means, put those very things into
his head.
If you exact perfect behavior
when a child is at home and alone,
he is not likely to behave differently
before company.

When Junior creates a
scene before company,
what should you do?

TEw of US who ever have had
to care for little children have
escaped the battling question of
what to do when our usually
reasonable three-year-old gets into
a sudden will or won't" mood
with company present. And the
more healthy, high-spirited
and intelligent he 10, the
sharper the rebellion.
We all have known times when
the visit of a friend is ruined COM
pletely by the child's demands for
something he can't have. The best
solution is to enforce discipline
even when company is very special
and a family scene" couldn't be
more inopportune. Appeasing a
child. either by letting him con-
tinue doing what he shouldn't or
by bribing him to stop. makes it
plain to him that he always can get
his way when company is present.
Guests Doa1t Mind
C)N THE other hand. the mitigat-
ing point, and one too often over
looked. is that visitors who witness
the child's disciplining are far more
friendly toward the child, as we'll
as more approving of his mother,
than if he is allowed to leave the
impression of a spoiled brat"
This does not mean that his
mother should pick on" him for
trifling things or that she should 60

alone Furnishing. But if what he
wants to play with is likely to
injure him or be broken. she should
take it away from him.
