INTERESTS CLOSELY ALME?. The. Wild Animais and Destitute Children of Oconoe. How in tho world ia there any connection botween tho game birds and animal? and poor children of )coneo county? So, that's your ?luery after reading tho above head ing? That there may becomo a very ?ital and far-reaching connection it ls tho purpose of this article to show. . t is possible that every timo a gamo license is bought in Oconeo conn tv 'hero may bo a contribution liol li oward tho caro and education of joor children. The (Jamo Warden's iffice exists for the purpose of study- ' .rig game life In Oconeo county, im proving it and protecting it; and tjart of its purpose is gained, as ntrango as it may seem, through the ale of licenses. Tho Do la Howe State Industrial School, Willington, S. C., has been es ablished for tho purpose of studying, ?rotectlng and improving tho lives .f poor children of every county of ho State, and this, of course, In <-ludes Oconeo. There is resulting rom the sale of Kamo licenses each ear a surplus in the treasury of tho i jame Warden's ofl\co. What shall lecomo of this money? It has been uggested that it bo given to tho )e la Mowo Industrial School for the loneilt of the poor children of the Halo. Wo take such pains to touch .ur chlldron lovo for wild animals, x'ow, wouldn't lt be fine to think . f the wild animals, even indirectly, aring for our children? If the 'legislature should decide nt Its next 'Heeling to give tho gamo protoction ?lind surplus to Do la Howe, all tho counties of tho State would bo given troo scholarships for their children .t. this school. Oconeo county would invo its quota. Such a distribution .f scholarships would bo tho most enslble way of solving tho problom hat surrounds tho livos of tho toto's indigent children. It Is pos ible that many who opposo the pay ment of a hunting license foo would . eel otherwise about it. if they knew hat somo of that fee would feed, lothe, sheltor and oducato 'some . oor boy or girl of Oconeo county. Tho above ls commended to tho onsideration of all the legislators nd citizens of Oconoe county who re In le rested both in the game and i he helpless child that so sorely need intelligent and sympathetic Interest. .1.

Saw .Much of Farm Life. Tho soldlor boys overseas-at least in many cases-were billoted squarely in the homos of the In habitants, and where, as was so frequently the caso, these inhabitants wore real French farmers, they saw to it that tho Sammies had not a few peeps at their farm lands. The bettor to got the real savor of those days of billeting in the French Re puhlic, one needs to resort to some letters written by the Sammies at the lime. Thus 1, for one, will en deavor to relate some of my experi ences while a corporal with an am bulance company near Rials, Franco: "Fall has been arriving and has boen making its coming known by the smells arising from the hemp.

"Being away out in the country, with tho nearest city Lo Mans, quite so far away that one can visit ii only when one bas a pass for some con siderable length of time, the only new event of real Intorest-aside from actual soldiering, is our con triving with the farmers hereabout* for the acquisition of a pig-a really beautiful French pig.
