"The movement is steadily gaining in weight and momentum. Messages of sympathy and cheer are being received from all sides. The hearty support and willingness to help which are everywhere being manifested are most hopeful and stimulating. As one of the pamphlets which is being widely circulated by the committee puts it: "In every man there exists a willingness, even the desire, to help, could be found an easy, practical way to go about it.’ "We love our State and want to serve her. Service is simply love in harness. South Carolina is blessed with many constructive men and wo men, and all are proud of our pro gress in many directions: but there is a great deal of waste and lost matter in the movement for State better ment.

Samuel Palecia and his wife. V'n- centalia, are in a hospital in Denver, both suffering from wounds susialn- ed in one of the strangest duels ever fought in this country. The husband had accused the woman of unfaith fulness to her marriage vows, and she demanded that they settle it as they do among the tribes in Mexico, - from which both come, by a fight to the death with knives. They fought until the police, summoned by neigh bors, broke hrough the locked doors, separated them and called an ambu lance. Each received many, but not dangerous wounds. When the woman demanded the duel in defense of hc-r name, and the man acquiesced, they locked the doors of their home, cleared an en tire room of the scant furni'ure it contained, took off their ou «i gar ments and began the rarvinv m ilch. Palecia had given h's w.te tne longest and sharpest knife, and he also had asked her to tie one of his arms behind his hack, in order that they should tie more evenly matched. \s the result the woman got in the first blow, a sla“h nero** the b»i' k of •lie man s fre* hand.

In view of the fact that the 2 s have no due date, and are payable after 1930 only at the option of the government, the definite promise of payment at the end of twenty years is distinctly beneficial to the holders of the 2 per cent, bonds.” The secretary spoke with amuse ment of the grave statements sent out from New York to the effect that if the currency bill shall pass and government deposits are put in the federal reserve banks, the 2 per cent, bonds now used to secure deposits will be thrown on the market and their value thereby impaired. As only $1 3,900,000 of the 2’s out of a total of $7S0,SS2,130 are used to se cure deposits, they can be used for additional circulation. "Nearly all of the 2’s are owned by the hanks. If the price is marked down, it is because the hanks them selves are putting the pressure on the market and depressing the value of their securities. The fault is their own. It would seem that part of good sense and good business not to do it." Tlhe secretary expressed the hope that the process, if continued, will not he carried to a point where the department will have to take ac tion "There la and always haa been a narrow market for the 2 per cent, bonda, just aa there la for m&ny inac- I iglitning Hits \rk*ji«A» H<>it»* Mwni llmrw la H.-ur I ' ft.'.*.* ' r 1' ft »•<•!!.
