Posterity's Debt to New England as Indicated by Recent Invention. I New Vork. Aug. $.- - Ten dllion tons of llax straw are burned every year on the .'.inns ol this country. ; In t!ic prodigal waste of Hip, pro duct of the soil there is a striking analogy between Hie position of the Western farmer of to-day and bis ! earlier prototype of Hie South, prior to Hie invention of KU Whitney's cot ion gin in 17!>:'.. l'|i io that lime, cotton, now king of the world's tex tile Industry, as a habitai of the [Southern house garden had Hule np ' parent value, ll took a whole day to separate the seed from one pound ol' the clean while staple, making its cultivation for commercial uses an i impracticable, and au expensive bus iness enterprise in which few plant ers dared io embark. So little cot ton was raised in the States south of 1 Mason and Dixon's linc that the Brit ish customs officials, thinking they were being deceived by false ln ? voices, seized I lie first eight bales ol' it entering Liverpool in 1784, on the ground thal such a quantity could j not have been raised in this country i in a single year. To Whit nev , who was a native of New England, the South owes its present predominance in this field. His invention, aside from helping lo pay off thi' South's debts has enabled it 'o develop an industry which to day produces a product of an aggre gate annual value of $(?00,000,000. To amitln>r Yankee Benjamin Gush ing Mudge tho West is beholden io a discovery which is as Important in ?Its relation io llax as was Whitney's gin lo cotton. Cy it the waste Max straw ls being transformed into 'limn, opening np lo Hie farmers a new avenue of revenue, which in time, experts predict, will prove to them a bonanza, commensurate in value to ile- first fruits Of tho cotton gin. Out of the ten million ions ol' straw heretofore regarded as useless, this genius, whose processes turn the llax into fabric for manufacturing purposes in twenty-four hours, in contrast to Ibo SO weeks consumed in l?ecling tho change abroad, says le will be able to produce two mil lion lons Ol' llax libre. The best tirades are being used to manufacture linen dress goods and lille table fria ries and the residue towels, mat tresses, ote. As the South sought a means ol' utilizing cotton lo advantage so has tho West for years looked forward to a solution of its problem of trans mitting its Max straw Into a commod ity of value. Now (hal Mudge has pointed the way hy lils discovery, many believe it foreshadows the es tablishment of a new national Indus try of commanding impon ance to American commercial supremacy.

The church was decorated in sunflowers, and each Sunshlner wore'a badge of yellow, white and blue. Devotional exercises were conducted by Mr. Moss. Mrs. doss was organist. Miss Marve K. Shelor told of Sunshine work. Kev. Littleton congratulated the members on the work and told the young people to live a sunny life and closed by a beautiful prayer for Miss Shelor as SI ali- leader. Dinner was served on the grounds, ll is useless to tell about the dinner, for those who have been there before know of the line liam, pies, etc., that were served. Refreshments were sold for the Woodmen of the World hall, the .Sunshiners helping the Woodmen, who are lovely to them in I heir charily work. I ii the afternoon Miss Shelor told the people that she would turn he afternoon into a school rally. She told how Superintendent Swearingen iiad helped her in her work and wanted Sunshine pm into all Hie schools, and as the speakers of the day had no! arrived we would have a good time any how. Then she told how delighted die was lo see a now school hons,, timi ii;ld taken the place of the one siie found when she was Salem .-even years ago, asking ?he children quite a number of questions about schools, - M1 they pledged to carry out her de. hes to have pictures on tin- walls, t ?wors planted and many nice things done. Miss Addie Grogan read Mr*. Alden's beautiful nrMolc on "The Sunny Moy and Girl." Thou Hie school pledged lo try to be sunny and ge- the offer made hy Mrs. Alden for the sunny boy or girl. The prize will be given in two months and the children will vote to see who is Hie sunniest, the trustees holding Hie election. Robert craig, the teacher, sahl a fevv words of encouragement, lu the district there are i wo schools to try to get Hie sunny prize. The other school is taught by Miss Grogan. The t r?steos were called on to talk, which they ,|id. Miss Shelor told of the work of the medical inspection and tuberculosis work. Dr. M a ro ney pledged, as one of the trustees, to get the work on foot in the dis trict. The trustees were making a good beginning, for they were having ihe well cleaned out. The work of placing a Bible in Hie hands ol' the children and asking each to read a verse was begun. Then Hie club members held a meeting. Miss Maude Maroney re cited a welcome in a beautiful clear voice. Miss Gora Moss read a charm ing piece about life's journey. Miss Waldrlp to.'! in her recitation how beaut ifni hands weir' those that did something for others. Miss Wood also recited an article about sunshine. Wo lost the program, and if we left out any we did not do il intentionally. Then Miss Shelor told the people present (hat she had invited Gol. Watson to be present, but for some reason he did liol gel there, but she would have him send every one who wanted ii a copy of the "Hand Dook of South Carolina." and thal they might read in ll anti see what tho Com missioner of Agriculture was do ing for South Carolina. Many names were given and Hie books ordered. Messrs. Haggerty, Moss, Crombie, Waldrlp. Littleton, Duncan and Goss contributed to the stamp bill. Then the meeting closed ami ices were sold. The society wishes io thank the members of the church for the uso of the church: Miss Grogan and Mr. Craig for closing school, and Messrs. Whitten, Littleton and Nelson Wal drlp for serving Hie refreshments and many sunny deeds done. The shut-in present was greeted lovingly by tho circle and the little fellow's name pm OIJ the roll, and we hope soon thal he can be cured and be not a shut in. Then a pictu re was taken. .lusl theil Col. Watson drove up. Ho 11 ; i < 1 tried hard to gel to the place in Hmo. He came too late to talk to the people, hut saw the country ?ind talked privately willi the workers. Col. Watson was agreeably sur prised lo see so much improvement ill the count ry. This was his first offi cial visit to Oconeo, and he said that he was delighted; thal If the men could HOI invite him to help develop this conni ry the women could.
