Such a provision was made last year by the house mem bers in the supply bill, but Senator Goodwin had it stricken out. Fol lowing the presentation of the mat ter, the following resolution was una nimously adopted, and ordered for warded the county delegation: “Resolved: That the Clinton Com mercial Club strongly approves of the appli<%tion of Mr. John D. W Watts, Supervisor of Laurens County, to the County Delegation for a spe cial fund of $1,000.00 per Township for a maintenance fund, for the main tenance of cross roads or county roads, and we urge upon the County Delegation in the General Assembly that $10,000.00 be added to the coun ty supply bill as a special fund in order that the county roads all over the county may be put in better con dition, and kept in better condition We urge that this fund be so arrang ed that it will be equally divided be tween the townships.” The meeting was largely attended and was permeated with a feeling of optimism for the new year. The club is now enjoying the largest member ship in it’s history and a fine spirit of cooperation and community inter est is manifest among the entire membership. It meets regularly each month on the second Tuesday, and following the serving of the us ual dinner, the business sessions are entered upon—the building of “Great er Clinton” being the ultimate goal before the club at all times.

I am trying to ahVend the law to make it definite and speci fic just like any other contract in the world. In the first place the seller of the commodity ou^ht not to be allowed to select the quality for the purchasers, as in this case. In the next place the seller should not" have so great a latitude to select from. This practice will depress the price of any commodity. These contracts are sold not by sample, but on the basis of sample with ten options to the seller and none to the buyer. If contracts are allowed to be sold at- all there ought to be a specific sample of quality and the seller ought not to have the right to supply some other quality. “I am looking forward for a fav orable decision at an early date, and I trust the people of the 3<>uth will post themselves on what the law is and what we are trying to accom plish. I trust that Congress will pass my bill or some other amendment to this law during this session. “I would suggest to any .one who is interested that they write the Fed eral Trade Commission for a copy of its report.” Thornwell vs P. C. Rats Thornwell high school will do bat tle to the P. C. Rats, in an exhibi tion basketball game Saturday night at 8 p. m. at the college gym.
