C., under the Postal Act t] of Marc! \ 1879. c April 1. 19 14 \ I This is all fools' day. Are P you one too? m * We should be very sorry to criticise any one unjustly, and we realize that the management of the Chesterfield & Lancaster road has been embarrassed for about two months because of the unusually heavy traffic, but it does seem that some arrangements should have been made and announced to accommodate the great number of people at this end of the line who desired to attend field dav at Chesterfield last Saturday. Persistent efforts were made to get definite information as to schedules on that day, but until late Friday after, noon no one at this end knew whether or not there would be a train Saturday morning. About sunset it was given out that ? there would be a train at five ( o'clock Saturday moining. To ( ?L^? *l%n ~ JL1 piuve dial wie pcupiu uiu wuui i to go, fifty five persons got the t news that the train would run, I got up and to the station through c the darkness and rain and hoarded that coach, despite the fact n that thirteen freight cars were i coupled ahead of it and that a < lantern had to be hung up to light the coach. ^ The Journal was anxious to f ' announce lasl week for the road > that a passenger train would be ? run for the accommodation of c the people, but Mr. Burroughs c said he could not say, but^hat ?

Teachers and pupils had g worked long and hard in their t preparations for Field day and ^ they were entitled to accommo- 1 dations in getting there and 1 back. The regular passenger 1 train could have started from I Pageland Saturday morning and e made two trips easily, which v 1 J i wuuiu nave given tne people excellent accommodations and e which would have paid the road n handsomely for the extra work. e Take Care Of The Horse's ^ Shoulder. */ The rush of spring work is ^ now on. Is vour horse going to walk up against a clean, goodfitting collar, with clean, tough shoulders? Or will he flinch from an ill-fitting, dirtv, cracked collar?one that will chafe the ^ skin and eat into the flesh as he serves you, not only subjecting the brute to severe pain, but also reducing the amount of work ^ you accomplish? ^ Have pity on the hoise and increase his capacity for work. First see that the collar fits and e is clean. Then have the animal's C shoulders washed once daily L with cold water, to which has been added a plentiful amount ^ of alum. This will toughen the cl/in nrt/1 1a oi\iu ukiu 11 CIC3Ili p If the skin is already broken a powder is preferable to an ointment as a healing agent. Any a of the following are good: Calo- ? mel, burnt alum, pulverised air r* slaked lime, or, air-slaked lime 12 parts, tannic acid, pulverized, n one part. !T Anv of the above should be applied after washing the should- u ders with the alum solution.? St Ralph Sharpe, In Progressive Farmer, ai \ ' N Automobiles By States. Its figures some what larger lan those we recently took s om another publication.. The c LUtomobile reports that the t umber of automobiles and \ lotor trucks registered in the t Inited States increased from r ,010,483 in 1912 to 1,253,875 at I reseift and thjt the output of I he factories rose from 378,2S1 * ars and trucks in 1912 to over 150,000 in the past year. New 1 'ork leads with 122,411 and 1 llinois follows with 94,456. ' ^orth Carolina's total registraion is an even 10,000, including 1 1,822 new registration; South Carolina's is 11,500, including | ,500 new registration; Virginia's s .9,022, including 3,262 new egistration, and the figures for Georgia are 22,000 and 2,860. 7rom figures representing those itates in which they are availible we gather that gasoline vehicles outnumber electric iDout zv to one. Virginia's mlifferent roads doubtless account or her mo.lcrate indulgence in mtomobiles. The other States >f this section appear to be buyng about their share. CHURCH NOTES Baptist J. M. Sullivan.
