High prices for products, and high wages for labor are to continue for it long ume is me opinion or K. II. Edmonds, editor of the Manufacturers Record and one of the leading authorities in industrial matters in this country. He thinks that the man who wants to build a house and is putting It off for lower prices is making a serious mistake and is waiting for a day which may never come. He thinks that the curse of the South is petty politics, and that the petty politician should be thrown into the dump heap. Seminary Head Resigns. Df. Thornton Whaling, for the past eight years president of Columbia Theological Seminary, handed in his resignation here recently to take effect immediately. In resigning as the head of the Presbyterian institution Dr. Whaling told the board he felt the duties of the head executive should be confined to administrative fields.

The statute provides that seats shah be provided for the women, that tliay may occasionally sit down and thu.5 not place in jeopardy their health. Mr. Wolfe is of the opinion th*?t this j statute is flagrantly violated an.l he lteves that there are few merchants of the state who realize that there is suctf i law on the statute books. He is thoroughly in sympathy with these women employees and will start a movement looking to the enforcement of this law. looking to proper precaution as to their health. Full Delegation Going.

With the division of the 8tsta Into four districts this will enable schools to play district Championship games and State championship.. This will especially apply to baseball, basketball and football. Mr. VanMeter has outlined his plan to the high school association, which organisation favors the plan and hopes to see it put into effect by the next meet. AH- championship games are to be played at the university. Another move started by the association is to have all debat'ug teams on their local territory for semi-finals and out of the 100 schools it is hoped to have enter the first debates about 20 who woula enter the finals at the university. In connection with this-It is also planned to hive three days for the annual events which are the most important in high school circles rather than two.

The proposition of increasing the banking capital of the South will be discussed at the annual bankers' convention of each Southern State, says a statement issued by the South Carolina Cotton Association. Letters recaitrnrl K?r tkn nnn<.nl?tUM # w.?vu %jj tuc aoov^iauuu iium heads of a great number of the banks of South Carolina indicate that the matter will be brought before the directors of the various institutions in this State almost immediately. In a statement urging the banks to take action pn this matter, the association says: "We believe that the banks will have no trouble selling the additional stock if Liberty bonds are accepted in payment thereof. "If the South is ever to catch the pace and keep step with the balance of the nation it will be necessary for its fanners to regulate the cotton situation and for its banks to have more .capital. The farmers can not regulate the cotton situation as it should be regulated until the banking capital of the South has been increased." Salvation Army Drive.

He has 75.000 hales stored in the various units of the warehouse syr.tem and very little of this is flowing into the markets. * That the state warehouse system is ' establishing itself firmly is Indicated j by the number of warehouses incorporated.
