Mi : .chine hats written a letter to Porter Whaley, secretary of the An derson Chamber of Commerce in which he asks that the proposition ot placing a ford on the Savannah river to make a direct route from Ander son to Elberton, Oa., be given con sideration. In his letter Mr. Mesch lue says that there was formerly a ferry known as Bowman's ferry which was located between Harper'B ferry and Gregg Shoals and that by this means it made a much more di rect trip to Elberton, shortening the d!stnnc?*ahflh proving to bo a great convenience to those peuple -who had occasion to.mukq the trip. Hs states that a charter could be secured from the State of South CV olina for this fer.y if tho matter were /taken up with the members of the Gcnerafc Assembly . rrom Anderson county'and says that Georgia would ; -have to respect it if such were issued. He peint*, ^s his authority for thi statement to Vol. I, section 2, of the South Carolina Code of Laws. In this" le'ter Mr. Meschine says that if ho can furnish half of the rlgbt of way for such undertaking that the State of Georgia would cer tainly furnish the other half an.-' as aures the Secretary of the local Cham ber of Commerce that it would be for tho coed of the people of this section to havo such a raovo put on foot. He urgeB that immediate steps may be taken in order that tho movement might be perfected beforo the pres ent session of tho Genoral Assembly is concluded When asked a* to his personal op inion concerning tho matter. Mr. Wbaley said that he had had no time in which to consider it and that he could not express any conclusion as yet.

The school opened last night in the splendid quarters' of Cecil's Businoss school with an enrollment of 18. The students say that so far as they are concerned the joint facts of the school opening on the 13th of the month and the enrollment reaching the 18 mark will prove to more of an omen of good luck than it will ill-fortune. Prof. Riser, principal of tho Ander son High School, has active charge of the work and thin instructor is going to leave nothing undone that'can be done to make the school a success. He is asslstedi n hts efforts by Director Burent ot the Y. M. O. A.
