Lancaster News, November 11:
Governor Cooper will not apppint a
successor to the late C. E. Spencer,
trustee of the university, who died last
week. The governor said that only
one meeting of the trustees was scheduled
between now and the date for the
meeting of the legislature and he did
not see the need for an appointment.
..."Good roads?hut how good?"
is the title of an editorial article In .'
the Columbia State, which paper, in '
its zeal to stir up public sentiment in
the direction of a better road from
Camden to Chcraw, refuses to acknowledge
the existence of the Charlotte-Laneaster-Camden
road, or to
attribute to it any more importance
than is due a small country bypath. ^
The State-paper's Ignorance is refreshing
That birds are valuable
as destroyers of insects is proven by '
the fact that, while hunting a few
days ago, a party living south of the
city killed a partridge and while dress- ,
ing the bird found four or five boll ^
weevils in its craw.
Chester Reporter, November 10: An (
order has been issued by the War Department
directing that all soldier patients
now at private hospitals be j
sent to government institutions. This
means that Chester's soldier colony at .
the Pryor Hospital, numbering at
present about twenty men, will leave ,
for one of the government institutions j
in the near future T,owryvllle ^
Baptist church. Rev. Geo. M. Rogers. ,
pastor, had a remarkably good rally ,
last Sunday for the purpose of raising ^
money to help pay off the church,debt.
The results were as follows: Cash, $4,118;
pledges, $2.5">0; notes paid, $93S. '
Total $7,606.00. Mr. Virgil (I. Gardner
died today at noon at the Pryor j
Hospital, where he was taken a few
days ago with a bad case of appendicitis.
Owing to the fact that the
appendix had burst nnd the poison
had been disseminated throughout (
the system, Mr. Gardner's condition ^
was critical from the outset, and it
?uiffifMiitv that he could be '
got into condition for the operation,
which offered the only chance. Al- j
though the best that trained medical j
skill and the most careful nursing I
could do for him was done, he passed j
away Friends have received the
following invitation: Mr. and Mrs.
William Young White invite you to be
present at the marriage of their daughter,
Wilma Craig, to Mr. B. Allen

several shots were fired at them, with
no results... .About the latest fall

SEEKS AID OF LEGION.
Secretary of War WoeHs Wants Aid in
Running Down Watson Chargst.
Secretary of War WeekB has askod
lid of the American Legion in running
down the Watson charges. Today he
addressed a letter to Lieut. Col. Hanford
MacNlder of Indianapolis, Ind? the
National Commander, requesting that
the legion assist by obtaining all facts
bearing upon the assertion that American
soldiers wCre illegally executed in
France.
After quoting- the senator's charges
is printed in the Congressional Record
[)f October 31, the secretary said:
"The foregoing statement, coming so
long after the commission of the alleged
crime, constitutes ? reflection upon
the entire personnel of tlie American
Expeditionary Force. I consider the
public entitled to all the facts which
it is within the power of my office to
produce. The war department will
make available all of its records and
such information as may come from
persons under its control. However,
such persons constitute but a small
percentage of those who served over*
ieas and who have been attacked.
"I request that the American Legion
lend its assistance toward obtaining all
facts bearing upon the issue which has
been raised."
The scope of the senate investigation
ivill not be determined until the taxation
measure is out of the way. The
Brandegee special committee held a
meeting last week, but so frequent
.vere the interruptions by votes being
taken on the floor of the senate that no
progress could lie made.
Another mass of communications
,vas presented to the senate last week
>y Watson. He urged favorable action
m the pending amendment to the revenue
bill, giving the soldiers a bonus,
ind then switched off to the matter of
llegal hangings in France.'
Several letters and telegrams, all
similar to those heretofore made pubic
by Senator Watson, were made pubic
on record without reading.

Not 80 Many Hogs, f
While numbers of residents will
have big hogs to kill within a month,
there are not so many hags raised an nualfy
now by residents of the Clover
mill village as was the case 'several
years ago," according to Mr. J. A. Clinton,
who was talking about it. "Some
of the residents of the 'Old Mill,' as It
is called, will have big hogs to kill as
soon as the weather gets a little colder,"
said Mr. Clinton, "but people of
the community generally are rot so
interested In the hog: raising Industry
as was the case several years ago. If
you remember one year back it seemed
that every family on the hill tried to
raise one or more hogs and each one
tried to railse a bigger hog than the
other. There were tons of homegrown
meat there that yeur; Lut it will
only be hundreds of pounds this year."
