BOY SCOUT NEWS
Scoutmasters Conference
As was announced the Scoutmasters
Conference was held at the Clinton
Hotel on Monday night at 8 o’clock.
Much to our regret, however, Mr.
Turner, of Spartanburg, was unable
to be present. Mr. Harper called the
meeting to order and introduced
Lieut. Nimocks, the Scout Commis
sioner of Musgrove Council. His sub
ject was “Camp Sanitation.” He gave
some very valuable points to the
Scoutmasters as to sanitation on their
over-night hikes as well as their
hikes of longer duration. At the con
clusion of Lieut. Nimocks’ talk, Mr.
C. M. Bailey was introduced and said
a few words which all were benefit-
ted by hearing. Mr. R. W. Wade was
then introduced and gave a very in
teresting talk on “Scouting in Gen
eral.” At this time, Mr. Harper saw
fit to interrupt proceedings and give
a wonderful flow of oratory. Mr.
Harper gave many practical suggest
ions which will no doubt be of great
assistance to the Scoutmasters. He
gave a program for meetings which
was very fine. He also discussed the
community good turn, and the help
it gives to scouting. At the conclu
sion of his talk the meeting was
turned into a round-table discussion.
Soon after this the meeting was ad
journed with the repeating of the
Scout Oath and the saying of the
Great Scoutmaster’s benediction.
LOCAL SCRIBE.
Troop No. 1, Community Meeting
Although only a few of the people
of Lydia Mill responded to the call,
a very interesting meeting was held
at the school on Friday night. Mr.
Ferguson gave a short talk, then Mr.
Harper was introduced to the people
and gave a very instructive talk.
After this Mr. Wade. Lieut. Nimocks
and Mr, Bailey gave' short but in
teresting talks. At this time the
meeting was turned over to the
Scouts, each Scout being assigned a
task for the night. At the conclu
sion of this the meeting was closed
with the repeating of the Scout
Oath.

Overnight Hike, Troop No. 4
Friday afternoon the troop left for
Holland’s pond for an over-night hike.
Arriving there at five o’clock, we im
mediately made camp on a hill over
looking the pond. Supper was then in
Drder after which the boys went fish
ing. About ten o’clock we had a
camp-fire meeting after which we
turned in. For some reason the boys
did not go to sleep until nearly morn
ing. It turned very cool and started
raining, so we had to break camp
and return to Clinton. We reached
Clinton about 9:30 a. m. Ten Scouts,
the entire membership of the troop,
with the leaders, went on this hike.
We will meet at the Mission Fri
day night at 6:46 p. m. All members
be present, and those who wish to
join, conie also.

Car Shipment of Poultry
*
Abbeville and Greenwood counties
have agreed to ship a car of poultry
with Laurens county, May 10. Lau
rens county will load poultry at Cross
Hill on Saturday afternoon, May 10.
Those that wish to ship poultry in
this car that live some distance from
Cross Hill, can club together and get
some one to take a truck load from
their community. One truck load is
practically made up already at Barks-
fc&BV&l...
being a late shipment Last prices
reported in State, 40 cents per pound
for fryers, 21 1-2 cents for hens, and
11 cents for roosters., If we can get
within one cent of these prices at this
time of year, ws will be doing well.
Poultry Diseases
Many people in Laurens county are
losing small chicks with different
diseases. Several have already ship
ped diseased chicks to Columbia to
have them examined. If you are
troubled with diseases and you can
not decide the kind of disease it is,
you can find out by making a ship
ment and by following the rules be
low when shipment is made.
Rules
1. The shipment must be accom
panied by a letter giving a full des
cription of the symptoms of the dis
ease in the individual, as well as in
the flock.
2. Length of time since first bird
became sick.
3. Length of time between taking
sick and death.
4. Number of birds lost.
' 5. Progress of the disease in the
flock.
6. Character of the feed.
7. A complete history of the condi
tions as neaf as it is possible to give.
Directions for Shipping
1. Birds should be shipped by pre
paid express, or parcel post.
2. Address the package to “Clem-
son College Livestock Sanitary Of
fice, 901-907 Liberty National Bank
Building, Columbia, S. C.”
3. Ship a live, sick bird if possi
ble, in a clean, well ventilated box
or carton.
4. If a dead bird is shipped, wrap
it completely and securely.
6. In summer months dead carcass
es must be iced. Place the bird in a
water-tight container (such as lard
can or tin bucket with lid). Place
carcass in the container and place the
container in a box large enough to
permit packing ice around the con
tainer. Use slats to cover the top
of the box so that it will not be turn
ed upside down in shipping. Decay
takes place very easily in hot weather
and in most cases renders a diagno
sis impossible.
6. Shipments must be made so that
they will not arrive in Columbia Sat
urdays and Sundays.

Stockings That Wear
For forty-five years Iron Clads have been covering
the legs of boisterous little folks who shuffle along the
floor on hands and knees. For almost half a century
Iron Clads on the tireless legs of real American boys
have shinned up trees and scrambled over fences.
Mothers of today are even more exacting than the
mothers of forty-five years ago. Mothers now want
stockings that are trim and good-looking as well as
strong.
Iron Clad Stockings have kept pace with the de
mands of mothers. They are as strong and durable as
ever, yet fine enough for dress occasions.
Today, when you shop for children’s stockings, you
do not have to pick over a big pile of stockings of un
known quality—hoping to have the luck to find a good-
looking pair that will wear well. All you have to do is
say, “IRON CLADS.”
