One Prof. Muonsterberg
claims to have invented an
apparatus that will tell when a
man is tolling a lie and when he
is telling the truth. Would you
be willing for him to use it on
you?

South Carolina Press
Association and the Master

session at Chick Springs. The
2-day session began yesterday.
There are some forty or fifty
good solid, silver reasons why
we are not there.
The District conference is
rather a large aggregation of
ministers and laymen to assent
ble in a small town, but Pageland
will prove equal to the
task of entertaining those who
come. Welcome, conferees, we
hope your stay among our good
people may be mutually enjoyable
and that the sessions of
your body may be helpful and
pleasant.

are made: Oslrowiec, Sandomierz,
Dniester, Berry au-Bac,

Rawa Ruska, llalicz, Omulew,
Orzyc. If you can spell and
pronounce these and the others

Everybody is invited to attend
any and all of the services of the
i District Conference, the first
session of which will be held at
3 oclock Thursday afternoon.
We desire to thank the many
friends for offering to entertain
delegates in their homes for us.
We mav not be able to send
delegates to all who have kindly
offered to help us but in the
event there are not delegates
enough to go round, we are
equally grateful to those offering.

It was a sore disappointment
to us all last Sunday not to have

Another great big surprise by
some of our folks at Libeity
Hill.* The Sunbeam Band decided
they must give us a
pounding. After the Saturday
afternoon services were over
the leader of the Band informed
us that her little folks had us a
box to bring to our home. Of
course we were obedient, took
the box, brought it home on our
buggy, and on examination
1 found it contained Jots nf nire

pantry, among other things a

to know that they thought ol

announce that Dr. Langstoc

"Managing a railroad Is quite different
from managing a government
where the money is raised by taxation.
When the expenditures, for
good reasons or otherwise, increase,
taxes can be equally increased. The
' railronds, while servants of the public,
cannot raise money with such
ease and facility. The railroads must
keep their expenditures within their
Incomes because while they have
some control over their expenditures
they have almost no control over their
incomes, their rates being fixed by
public authorities.
"There Ib not a railway manager in
the country today who is not fearful
tnat under the press of increasing demands
the transportation systems of
the country will, in a few years, break
down, unless the railroads are allowed
to earn larger funds wherewith to
build It up. There are vast sections
of the country, especially in the West,
where more railroads are needed and
they cannot be built unless the railways
raise new capital.
"People Invest money in order to
make money, and they are skeptical
as to whether they can make moneyby
investing in concerns that are dealt
with stringently and unfairly. Rail
road securities must be made more
attractive to invite investments, and
In order that they may be made more
attractive, the roads must be allowed
earnings that will enable them to
meet the increased capital charges."

The Home hire Insurance

in the country has added a line
of hail insurance for crops to
their business and the Pageland

has the agency for this company.
Hail insurance heretofore has

and in case of general destruction.
the company could not
pay the damage and remain in
bssiness. This strong company,
with millions capital, can pay
for all the damage that is likely
to occur in several states, however,
and anyone who insures
his crop against hail with this
company may feel sure that the
company will be able to pay
the damage. The cost is small
and nearly every man can have
his crop protected by insurance
if he will. Mr. A. F. Funderburk
will be glad to discuss the
matter with you and quote you
