JDISGUSTING SCENES SHOWN ON SCREEN 3 ' "To the Editor of The State: I seldom go to the movies. But ^--within the past three weeks I have ? to six in five South Carolina towns Tanging in population from 5,< <* DDtr'to 50,000. Here are some of - the things I saw: A young adventuress had married T- a wealthy business man several years Yittsr senior. A few months later she T-nrrnrt'ssed a love for a young: society ' isarasite and with him plotted her Sseifeand's downfall in business. In tte midst of this intrigue her stepison, before unknown to her, came lioinc from college. Almost at once abe declared to him her love and tried 1 . to coax him into an intrigxie against h'rs father. When he indignantly rspomed her proposal she cooly locked She door of her room, into which she lhad enticed him, and accused him to her husband and his father. In another play a faithless young wife, infatuated with fast society and wiih another man, deliberately poisoned her sick husband in order to get hold of his money and to marry her paramour. In the same play the wife lia<l lost heavily at cards in the homes . x>f society women. In order to pay lier debts she lied to her husband and stole from him. In another, a young woman of good character is married to a brute of a husband. He is a common thief. He - -and one of his pals force the innocent -wife to write a note to a clean young man of means, begging him to come at once to her home to protect her. He goes and is at the mercy of two desperate blackmailers. In another, two youngsters are employed in the same bank. One steals .some money from the bank and manages to throw suspicion upon his felSowworker. The innocent man goes v, to prison. Later the guilty one cleans xip the bank and is killed in attempting to escape. In still another, that crown prince of driveling idiots in portrayal, CharChaplin, was the hero. He appeared beastly drunk and was explaining IJtUB OUT PAIN witli good oil liniment. That's the surest way to stop them.

[ Ten The whole community was greatly ?s of shocked today at half past one L 100I? io'clock when it became known that [ !j. C. Campbell was dead at his art p htful gallery by his own hand. Two shots 1 I had been fired, one entering his left - [ seen; breast in the region of the heart [ i her which passed entirely through his J | body. The other entered the top | em_ of his head. The deed was clearly ? premediated as he had written a let- z ter to his wife which he sent through | 1 suf" the post office by special delivery, f fords Before Mrs. Campbell could reach the gallery the act of self destruc- 1 ,(** tion had been committed. The act J was committed in the inner office ? and was seen by no one. A gentle ^DE man from the country had come to ( itne outer aoor 01 ms stuuio on ousi- r LUght ness when he heard the two shots, lized fired in close succession, after which | fter- he heard a noise as of someone gasp- [ room ing. He reported that something ? This was wrong and several gentlemen I :rade went in and found the body of Mr. f Pr?- Campbell lying on the floor. Miss The causc of the deed is not known I the but it is suspected that it was the ? jcted | result of financial worry. Mr. Camp- a the bell was an unassuming man who Link went qui-itly about his affairs and | Mm- attended to his own business.

Qonference of Southern bankers, | 1 Bradford Knapp, chief of extension f The wor^ the South, made an address I reci- on "Safe Farming" in which he sta- I by ted seven objections to the one-cyp ff ' system of agriculture and offered der's suggestions as to what would con- I iter- statute "safe farming" for the South. [ This address is reprinted in Clrcu- * lars 56, Office of the Secretary, and can be obtained by writing to the [ FEB department of Agriculture, Wash- f ington. The reasons why the one crop system is unsafe are stated as | follows: ' [ First: Because the system depends upon market and crop conditions of i the one crop alone. Failure of crop J or failure of market alike bring se rious disaster. I Second. Because it does not pro- J vide for the maintenance of soil fer- j tility. Third. Because it fails to provide for a sufficient livestock industry to U consume the waste products of the farm and make its waste lands pro ductive. , | Fourth. Because it does not pro- r vide for a system of farm manage ment under which labor, teams, and | tools may be used to the fullest ad- f vantage. ' Fifth. Because it brings return in I cash but once a year instead of turn- ? ;ever ing the money over more than once a year. I 1 Sixth. Because it does not pro- J duce the necessary foods to supply the people upon the farm and keep 1 them in health and strength. ( 1 Seventh. Because it limits knowl- r edge, narrows citizenship, and does not foster home-building, but does | encourage commercial farming. r This circular will be of interest " and value to every farmer, merchant I and banker in South Carolina. Bank- I ers in rural communities especially should possess themselves of copies I of it. j 5 WHY PRINCE ALBERT WINS ! ?I '[ Patented Process Is Responsible ror Its International Popularity. ,j Smokers so much appreciate the g flavor and coolness and aroma of J Prince Albert pipe and cigarette | tobacco that they often marvel that r this one brand could be so differ- " ent from all others. I The answer to this question is ? to be found on the reverse side of every Prince Albert package, where | I you will read: "Process Patented r * July 30th, 1907." That tells the whole story. Prince Albert is made I by a patented process that cuts out f the bite and parch, which makes the A-1 o wAnoK1 n an/1 L IU UciUUU SU ogicvauiv m*?v* ? satisfying to men of every taste of [ every civilized nation on the globe. Smokers should realize that this patented process cost three years' ( ^ continuous work and study and a j ^ fortune in money to perfect. But \ the result has proven to be worth 1 J all that was expended upon it, be- [ cause it has set free men who be- J r lieved they never could enjoy a I a pipe or a makin's cigarette. if j Prince Albert makes it possible . a for every man to smoke a pipe or K J to roll his own cigarettes. And, no [ J matter how tender the tongue, j * Prince Albert cannot bite or parch. 11 r That is cut out by the patented ( # process, leaving for the smoker j p # only the joys of the fragrant to-j SI bacco. 11 It is a fact that since Prince s I Albert "arrived," just about six w years ago, it has made three men | smoke pipes where one smoked a f V pipe before! |!
