Thursday, just at home-com ing timo for the children, tho larg est swarm of boes probably ever seen ""in town" flow through Mrs. M. E, Cowau's yard. Tho little folks soon settled them on a pine bush by the aid of "tin pan music." Then preparations for hiving bogan. All robed and ready for tho fray, without any experience and only a bit of information gathered from the neighbors, the, proceed ogs began. Not being very good at climbing they procured a long rope, drew Ibo sap ling over and cut out tho top, which contained fully a peck of busy bees. Then it was that, tho fun began in earnest. The atmosphere was full of bees, and such exclamations as "Run, mamma, run!" "Roll, mam ma, roll!" "Smoke 'em, Aunt Loss, smoke 'om'!" were hoard. A persistent showering of waten, prepared lu advance, soon quieted .the furious little fellows, and tho re mainder of tho work was compara tively easy. Jim stood at his post and worked like a soldier, and only received one sting, but when Mrs. C. was asked how many slings she received she replied: "Don't ask me; I had no book-keeper employed." Tho boes were out next day and Mrs. Cowan put thom hack all alone. Sfio found tho queen that time and pul her Into tho hive and put the others In, too, with her hands. She declares tho experience was well worth tho stings, which didn't hurl long, and that she now lias a lino swarm of bees. Mrs. Cowan says it is a fascinating work,, and that ever since lier companion showed lier the queen bee and all tho others at work in a glass-front hive at tho fair in Texas, she has wanjod boos, and soon tfpe expects lo "keep boes for profit as well as for fun.", Winnie Cowan. _s.-..

Tho Titanic, disrstcr reminds the Greenwood Index of tho manner in which a former Governor of this State met his death. James Hamil ton, Jr., was Chief Magistrate of South Carolina In 1830-32. He was intensely interested in the struggle ol' Texas to achieve its independence and threw himself Into the contest with great e .nosiness, spending, lt was said, something like a quarter ol' a million dollars ol' his own private fortune to aid the Texans in their struggle. On ono of his frequent trips by Steamer between this Slate and Texas he was a passenger on the schooner "Pulaski," whick; In the Gulf of Mexico, was caught lu a fear ful storm. There were not enough life preservers to go around, and In the panic, which ensued when the cap tain told the passengers that the ship was about to founder one little wo man was left unprovided for. She rushed around frantically begging to be saved, but had been repulsed rc-?| peatedly until she attracted tho at tention of Governor* Hamilton. The index quotes tho story of a survivor. Governor Hamilton was In the act of buckling on a life preserver when ho first heard the woman's appeals. Has tening to her "and with tho bow of a courtier offering hor a seat In a shad ed bower on a summer's day," he said, "Madam, I beg you to accept this from me." Sho took rt and was saved, dovernor Hamilton vas lost with the ship. If you want a fool to do a certain thing, dare him lo do lt. MORE ABOUT TRACK MEET. Citizens of Westminster Refer to .The Lato' Unpleasantness." (Too Late for Last Week.) Westminster, April ^3.-Editor Keoweo Courier: There has been a good deal said about tho recent track meets at Seneca and at Green ville. Except to correct wrong im pressions Westminster has had little to say. Wo now wish to show up this from Westminster's standpoint. The ago limit was in tho consti tution in 1909 and 1910, but It was set aside by common consent. -So far as we know, nothing was said or done about this in 1911. Wo un derstand the age limit was decided upon by the executive committee at Greenville In January, 1912. A copy of tho constitution and by-laws, waa sent to Supt. W. C. Taylor hore Feb ruary 2, 1912, but no mention of an age limit is In this copy. Mr. Tay lor knew nothing o'f this action un til the day before tho meet in Green ville. When our team saw what had been done they had no time for re adjustment of the team, so they withdrew. We glvo the above to show why Westminster withdrew. We notice the comparison of age and weight in Richland locals-the youngest and smallest of their team with the oldest and largest of ours. Is that a legitimate comparison? Why not take the youngest of the two teams, or the average age, or some other equitable basis of com parison? The youngest of our team is the same age as tho youngest of Richland's team, but heavier. The average age of ours may be greater than tho other schools. This is prob-, ably caused by the humber of board-i lng pupils in our school. The repu tation of our school ls bringing them in. We have enrolled this year 68 in the high school department and, expect more next year. We had to correct wrong impres sions In regard to our team in the relay race last fall, and after the re cent county oratorical contest the Seneca correspondent of the Spartan burg Herald reported "Seneca 1st place, Walhalla 2d, and Richland 3d" -Westminster 2d place, not men tioned. Why Is lt that, all these cor rections have to be made in regard to Westminster school and uot of the other schools? Whether Intended so or not lt tends to create a senti ment against Westminster. We think it i s Unie for a reaction. We do not attach any blame . to tho Seneca correspondent of i\\b Spartanburg Herald. The blame rests with the one who reported the matter to him. His explanation, so far *ns he Is concerned, ls entirely satisfactory to us, but still it was necessary to correct tho statement. Our apology for the length of tho above is the justice of our cause. S. "Feed the Babes Milk." - Westminster, April 28.-Editor Keoweo Courier: 1 would like to have space enough to answer tho elo quent and magnificent articles writ ten by your Richland and Seneca correspondents as to the age limit being In the constitution of tho Pied mont Athletic and Oratorical Asso ciation. It seems very absurd that they have never noticed lt before. Westminster, Seneca, lOasley-and, in fact, all other schools-have been running and entering men over 18 every year. There was no <o limit in Westminster's or Walhalla's or Basley's copies of the constitution, and,it Is-well, we can't say whyft appeared in Seneca's and Richland's only. Now, Seneca, you havo no room to open your mouth; you entered in the Oconee meet one man who had not. been in tho school house over three times the whole year; you also entered ono man, in the meet April 13th at Greenville who was over the age limit; but still you barp on having a "square deal" and "going by the rules." What. did your principal do in Westminster tho first year of the Piedmont Athletic Association? He organized a track team and base hall team, and four boys played on the teams and only went to the school house three days. That was all ho required of thom then to constitute eligibility; and I can say that the same constitution was still In effect. Do you call rul ing out Westminster at the very last minute, oh account of having one or two men over 18 on her team, when Seneca's principal had done tho same thing (and at this time had a man on his team over age), giving a fair and square deal? We do not. There never was an age limit be fore, and If it was in Richland's and Seneca's constitution-well, that was the only way they could win over Westminster. Now, Richland, we are' very sorry you havo no men or boys' in your section. You must be running a kindergarten, and you should pull out of the Piedmont Athlotlc Asso ciation and enter something that your babies can contest with. Milk ls a good thing to give klndegarten pupils, ?and eventually each may bo I The W .? ; :.-T able to become "a bearded man, past I 24 years of age, and not weighing [ less than 160 pounds, and ono of tho best muscled men In Oconee." (As for Richland having nothing to do with the putting in of the nge limit, we wish to say, it ls strange that tho age limit clause could only be found in Richland's and Seneca's copies of the constitution. But still, Richland's correspondent says, "the matter is settled and wo had noth ing to do with it." Tho Piedmont Athletic and Ora torical Association was running smoothly until Richland brought In her "little bitties" and bogan com plaining about other schools having larger men, and they were afraid j they would got hurt; boneo they make a bowl and scratch up an age limit at the last minute so they could win second place. Peed them milk, Richland, and "watch 'em grow." J. H". Carter. Catarrh Cannot Re Cured with local applications, as they can not reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood or constitutional du.
