C. riMM THURSDAY, AUGUST 1. 1929 LAURENS BUYS FIRE TRUCK “H^rg ICatFHta ft Council Purchases Most Modern De sign American-LaFrance Pumper To Be Delivered In December. Laurens, July 26.—A thousand gal lon fire pumper and truck, described by its manufacturers as the last word in fire fighting equipment, was purchased by the city council at a called meeting held f'riday night. The pumper, or fire truck as it is most commonly called, was pur chased fnmi the American-LaFrance company and is known as the Metro politan type, which is the latest thing put out by the fire engine manufac turers. The truck has to be made by special order, it was stated by the company’s representative, a.id will not be ready for delivery until about De cember 1st. The cost will be $13,000. The truck will be propelled by a six-cylinder triple ignition motor and rated to deliver 1,000 gallons of wa ter per minute. Besides the pump, it will carry an 80 gallon booster tank for small emergency fires, two chemi cal tanks, one 24 foot ladder, one 12 foot ladder, two 4-inch suction pipes, connections for four lines of hose, au tomatic nozzle cut-off and all other equipment carried on machines of the same type. , The new engine was made by the same concern which built the city’s other engine, which has been in ser vice fourteen years. This latter ma chine, it is stated, will be returned to the factory for over-hauling and put in condition for extra use. The two engines, it is stated, will give a com bined pumping capacity of 1,500 gal lons per minute. By Cccile A smart mid-summer mode — and ideal for the last days of August —is the tailored suit or ensemble made up in cotton in one of the new and be witching designs. These are to be had in plain color, or figured, crossbarred or checked. Modern ai't and color have contribut ed much to the patterns, and gives us everything from circus scenes to sky scraper angles and vistas. The smart little suit illustrated fea tures pique in a sleeveless dress with yellow and green printed calico coat and a matching hat in yellow and green. The coat is quilted and tailor- stitched at all the edges. O', er the white tennis or golf frock a vaat of quilted pique, in a pastel sh.'.Je harmonizing with the gay col- • d belt and scarf, proves extremely ffective and presents one in trim at- re for less active moments spent at he country club. Printed Velvet for Rarncoats Another interesting departure for fall will be the raincoat of printed vel-1 vet a far cry from the old utility ergreens and flowering shrubs, as well as oaks and lombqrdy poplars. The developers have the ambition to make of College View a city development second to none in the state. FLIERS TO GET $31,t)00 St. Louis, July 30.—Dale “Red” Jackson and Forest O’Brine earned $31,2555 jointly or $15,672.50 for each man in the record-breaking flight of the St. Louis Robin which ended here tonight. This did not include $2,750 in cash sums given them nor checks and cash which has been sent to the chamber of commerce. Eighteen days pay as commercial pilots must also be figrur- ed into the total. The mileage of the Robin was esti mated at 25,500 miles on a.consump tion of aproximately 3,690 gallons of a high test fuel, the same as used by a number of commercial companies. Oil used totaled 158 gallons and 48 contacts were made for refueling out of a total of 77. The propeller revolu tions, counted at 1,300 per minute, ap proximated 32,000,000 times. COPELAND-STONE LOCALS Trouser Blouses Are In For the short jacket suit — those rakish lisle trouser blouses! Everyone who loves a smart touch—and a safe one—is adopting them for wear with cotton sports suits. It’s because they are so saucy, and also so convenient. They are attached to panties, which are so tailored. i Knitted Silk Suits for Fall Knitted costumes made of pure silk are to play an important part in fall sports Costumes. The new _types_ajrfc made with one-piece dresses and with them usually goes a smart jacket made with a notched collar—tailor- fashion. Seek To Increase Usage Of Cotton Columbia, July 27.—Indicating the sweep across the South of sentiment to use cotton products, the Cotton Products Extension committee has been advised that the Southern WTiole- sale Confectioners association at its recent annual meeting in Atlanta, vot ed to request all confectioners to or der their sugar in cotton sacks.

Cannon, County Agent Farmer’s Week At Clemaon August 5-10 Fanner’s Week, which is to be held at Clemson college, should be of great service to farmers, and farm women of South Carolina. In fact, the past two years have proven that it is worth while to attend. The farmer who is making progress today is the farmer who is studying agrlpulture every day. The same^ts true of the farm wo men. She, too, is studying home mak ing every da^. The person who attends this farmers meeting will get the knowledge of the latest improvements, and most scientific methods of hand ling problems pertaining to farm life, or rural community life. Besides the advantages mentioned above it will be a fine outing for both farm women and farm men. This class of people needs a vacation, or an outing, the same as any other business man or woman. “COLLEGE VIEW” HAS NEW PLAN Attractive New Residential Section Being Rapidly Developed. Selec tion of Homesites Made Easy. Along with the opening and devel opment of a new section of Clinton’s rapidly growing residential section, the developers, Wm; P. Jacobs and John T. Young, are trying in College View a new plan. It is a plan that has proven popular and successful in Spartanburg, Greenville and Colum bia, and these enterprising young Clin- tonians are striving to keep Clinton abreast of the times in development, and grow(B j ^ The plan, explained in detail in an advertisement elsewhere in this issue, involves the posting of each lot with a tag giving the lot number, dimen-' sions and price.

All tnlEl^ounty agents erty, that College View prices are higher than lots elsewhere in the city. Nothing could be farther from the fact, however, for the prices now post ed in College View prove to be much lower than similarly desirable prop erty in many other sections of the town. The easy terms of payment add still further to its attractiveness. The new plan is being applied to the entire portion of College View that is unsold, but is adopted partlcularlji to introduce the new section known as “The Woods.” The new section is ac tually closer in to the business sec tion than the original College View. It lies only a block from Broadway and the college campus, a block from “Need More” and the orphanage cam pus, and is immediately west of the home of the late Geo. W. original ^ owner and co-developer of College View. The new section, while crossed byi the already established thoroughfares. Maple street, Hickory avenue, Cedar avenuje, and Chestnut avenue, also adds a new and beautiful street to the city, “Young Drivi,” named in honor of the late Geo. W. Young. It is an attractive drive, winding in and out among the beautiful wooded section. It has recently been built jointly by, the city and the developers of the ■ property, and is perhaps the most at tractive short street in the city. The public is invited to drive over the new street and note Clinton’s latest progress in residential extension Many attractive homesites are offer- and specialists of the state will bejgd^ some wooded, some cleared, some .

Several new homes are either in progress or shortly to arise and many others will follow. Already a number of the new lots have been purchased by Clintonians. While, as with the original College View development, the developers, are encouraging sales mainly to possible home builders, the reasonableness of the price and the inevitable future and i stability of the property makes a homesite in College View a very prom ising investment financially. The city is co-operating by build ing and draining the streets and ex tending water and sewer mains and electric lines. In the fall, at the prop er planting season, the new streets and lots will be beautified by the de velopers, by planting hundreds of ev- 7 - 9 MUSGROVE ST. CLINTON, S. C.
