Conducted by W. Ellis Bethei
Methodist church was given over to
Che Junior Missionary Society, under
the capable leadership of Mrs. Jule F.
Kcgers, The young tolks rendered a
very acceptable program which was
interesting and entertaining, to all
present. These young folks had entire
charge of the program, reading
their own scripture lessons and making
prayer8 etc. It gave one a new
conception of the efficiency of their
v.ork. The following program was
carried out: Song: "Publish glad
tidings." Bible lessons: "Christ r
friend to children," Msyy LeGette.
"Christ a friend to Foreign Born,"
Sarah Henry. Prayer Recitation, Josephene
Major aim Flor^pce Manning.
Song, "Tell it again." Recitation:
Margaret Bethea. -Sentence prayers
by the Juniors. "The changed cro3ses",
by ten girls. After the program
was completed. Dr. Kirkland asked
that the congregation give these
young folks a little financial aid. A
very nice collection was received. Dr.
Kirkland then asked Miss Gertrude
Manning for a report of the two weeks
which she spent at the Methodist Assembly
grounds, Lake Juna Luska,
N- C., in attendance at the Sunday
School Training school. This was
done by Mis3 Manning in a clear-cut
way, which was educating as well as
very entertaining to those present.

Sweet Potato MatVels.
1 C. E. Collins in the Dearborn Independent,
Ford's paper, has an article
on the by-products of the sweet pota|to
that will open the eyes of even
'.those who are' on close speaking
terms with "sweet spuds" and wh?
think they know all about them. "In
jthe variety of its by-products," says
the article, "the sweet potato is a
rival of coal tar. It is being found a:
mystic maze of usefulness and if one:
is to judge oT ^ts possibilities in the
light of developments in other pro
ducts, the chemist has little mot! ,
than scratched the surface." ]
First the chemist can make feir i
.kinds of flour and four kinds of nval ,
front the potato,'which can be uied i
any oiaer meat or nour. 'lien' |
he extracts a syrup that is very de- h
Jlicious, and while you are tasting >f it, ^
he produces sweet potato vingar!
i There is shoeblacking a very good
| blacking, too. There are five kids of
[library paste, and starch; ttere is,
mock cocoanut, four kinds of breakfast
food, gingerized potato, ^k, two j
grades of "coffee" one of wbch is of ?
the 'instant vanlety, two gr.des" of
"tapioca, one of which is *so made l
while you wait. Stock tooi is made f
from this wonder potato ad niolass- t
es. There are 14 kinds o' wood fillers
and between 40 a-d 50 dyes(t
ranging from black aid orange t
through all the intermeoate shades.
Even a very good gradeof rubber is 1
pioduced. All these prducts have
been tested and have sood the test, 1
and not least interestig is the factjf
that the experiments which have r
produced the amazinr list of possibilities
of the sweet ptato have been s
carried on by negro scientists, at
TuBkegee institute, ^abama. I
So much for what cience has done.Je

SENATOR P.THEA
I T KES HOPEFUL VIEW.
I Senator " L>. Bethea does not regard
the cc ting of the boll weevil
as a great calamity. Senator Bethea ]
says it wil take a year or two, for the
county to djust itself to new conditions,
am during that time we have
got to ernomize, but after all the .
boll wee 1 may be a blessing in dis- J
'guise. " e 'are not going to starve,"
,added S iator Bethea. "You can make

BILL DISCUSS COOPERATIVE
MARKETING,
Senator Bethea is in receipt of
a letter from R. C. Hamer, presiHont
nf Ihp S P CnHnn Aoonrtlq41pm
notifying him that he had made
arrangements with Mr. Carl Williams
a well-known public speaker, to address
the farmer8 of Dillon on September
8th or 9th on the subject of
cooperative marketing. The exact date
will be announced next week.
Mr. Williams is president of the(
Southern Cotton Growers Exchangfe
and was the man who organized the
cotton growers of Oklahoma into a cooperative
marketing association which
is regarded as the smoothest working
and most effective association of the
kind in the south.
Mr. Williams haB had wonderful
success in othar states and counties.
He will not nuke many talks in South
Carolina and Dillon is fortunate in
being one of the few counties to secure
him. He is a fluent and pleasant
speaker, krows his subject thoroughly.
is a cotton producer himself,
knows tha ups and downs of farm
life and will have something worth
while to tell the farmers of Dillon
county.
The next issue will give tlic date of
his coning.
o
County Dairy Meetings.
jor the past few weeks we have
be<n looking around for something
to take the place of our cotton crop
f<r another year. For those that are
interested we think dairying will
'.elp solve the problem, so we have
decided to hold two dairy meetings
in the county next week. The first at
Latta on Monday, August ,29th, at
9 *) a r> ?/ J *i? _.i .

on Tuesday, August 30th at the same

at all interested I do hope you can
arrange to attend one of the above
meetings.
