Indeed, few stop to think What the functions of a legislature are. The general idea is that legislature exists simply to legislate. “Yet, upon examination the activi ties of the legislature appear to fall into three distinct classes. Over Six Hundred in Total Attend ance This Summer.- * Greenwood, Aug. 18.—Home demon stration club girls of the Piedmont district have been attending camps during the months of June, July and August. Camps have been held in each of the counties of Abbeville, An derson, Cherokee, Greenwood, Mc Cormick, Newberry* Oconee, Pickens, Union and York, showing a total at tendance of 645 girls. Before she is admitted to camp, each chib girl is required to have her club work requirements completed to date. The joys of camp life are a real compensation to her. * The camp is held at a place in the county most centrally located and most suitable for the girls’ pleasure. The places have varied from the real camp in the forest to the nicely equip ped colleges of the Piedmont. These girls have had the pleasure of being \ sented and criticised, entertained in the dormitories of Lan der college, Limestone college, Tam- assee D. A. R. school, De La Howe school, Lebanon Community school, Little Mountain high school, and Rocky Bottom Camp grounds. In each case the camp has lasted from three to five days. To keep the girls busy at work or play is most essential, so the pro grams are planned to occupy every moment of the time from 6:30 in the morning to 10 at night. A variety of articles have been made to carry home by the girls. They have been a red basket, dresser scarf, collar and cuff set, towels, handkerchiefs or il lustrative booklets of club work. At each camp an honor contest was held in order to simplify the camp discipline. It worked fine in every case. Every day, each girl was on Greenville, Aug. 18.—"The organ! xatioit of U»e legislature ought to beT was Officers,: Set* judged by the way it achieves the Places.

All of the formal acts of the legislature appear as statutes and resolutions, but only a few of.them are rules of conduct of general application. Thirdly, and from many points of viewx.this is the most important func tion of the assembly, js the control of the executive branch of the*govern ment. This is true even in countries like our own, where the executive is intended to be independent of the legislature. When it is recalled, how ever, that the great bulk of legisla tion is to create offices and bureaus, to put new duties on existing officers, to shift functions from one govern mental agency to another, and that the greater part of the time of the legislature is spent on the appropria tion bills, it is not difficult to realize the significance of the statement. The appropriation act itself sets the limit«, often in general detail, within which the executive is ^to .act. Burglars Visit Tribble’s Place Burglars entered the office of D. E.

Municc, Ind., Aug. 17.—George “Dutch*’ Anderson} 'mail robber, jail- breaker and pal of Gerald Chapman, today still was being hunted for his latest crimed—the slaying of Ben Hance and his wife, who Informed on Chapman. ' Anderson, who has eluded score^ of federal Officers, private detectives and police departments of the entire coun try since he escaped from the federal penitentiary at Atlanta nearly a year ago, has been reported seen numerous times on the streets here and in apartment houses since the slaying of the Hances last Friday night, but each time the police raid the pjpee Ander sen is missing, Anderson is wanted by the govern ment to complete a 20-year sentence for ribbing a mail truck on the streets of New York. Last night pplice received o “ty>t tip” that Ander- s6n was hiding in a farm house be tween Muncie and Hartford City. Ind. Armed with riot guns several souads of police closed in on the place, hut ifter a complete search of l6e place Anderson, as usual, was missing, Hance, police say, has paid with hn life because he violated, the unwritten code of the underworld in “squealing” on Chapman. As a result of Hance’s information last January, Thapman was arrested here and with the aid of the former’s testimony, he was ‘on • victed of the murder of Patrolman James Skelly of the New Britain, Conn., police department during the hold-up of a mercantile establishment. Chapman is now being held in the Connecticut state penitentiary under death sentence for the murder of the officer. , The coronqf’s inquest, scheduled for today, officers say, will be indefinite ly postponed to give police and federal officers who are assist-ng in the search time to hunt the slayer and to gather evidence. s Anderson and Char les “One Arm” Wolfe were named ns the slayers by Hance’s dying state ment, ^ho told Marshall Booher, of Middletown, npar where they were slain, “Dutch Anderson and Charles Wolfe got me.” Wolfe, former peace officer, who several years ago was acquitted of having slain his first wife, was held in the county jail under bond of $100,- 000.

Greenwood, Aug. 18.—“The cotton farmer has made'satisfactory progress in increasifig his production during the past 50 or more years, but he has not finished the job, he has gone just half Way,” declared Dr. B.

They made a thorough search through numerous bundles of papers, books, etc., but did not secure a dollar, since no money was kept in the safe. Dis appointed in their efforts here, they scattered the papers and other con tents of the safe over the floor and then rambled through the cash regis ter in another part of the office where they met with the same success.

Dr. Kilgore added, lies along the road of proper marketing and this is the objective that the co operative associations are attempting to reach. ~ - The meeting, held at the fair grounds under the auspices of the county cooperative marketing associa tion, was presided over by Dr. W. A. Barnett and the speaker was intro duced by District Fifld Agent F. L. 3ramblett. Dr. Kilgore was given the closest attention in his presentation of in teresting and instructive facts on the farming industry in generafr and the progress made by the cooperative as sociations through the American ex change in particular. Declaring that nothing was done for half a centtry in improving market ing conditions, Dr. Kilgore said the farmer realized his opportunity for the first time during the slump in 1921 through the cooperative associa tion and the price now is the object ive. He pointed to the suecess that has been met thus far and predicted the association would make an improve ment on the system of the cotton merchant. “It is true we haven't got it worked out to perfection yet,” he said, “but we have done/remarkably well during the three years since* our organisation was started and we are nearer a solution of the sales prob lem.” V Washington, Aug. 17.—Decreases of 1.1 per cent‘in employment, 2.4 1 per cent in aggregate earnings of em ployes, and 13 per cent in per capita earnings were recorded in the manu facturing industries in the United States in July as Compared with June. The labor statistics Bureau of the labor department in making this re- purl said the decreases were “much less marked” than in the correspond ing period in 1924 and CPuld he largely” attributed to “July closing for inventory taking and repairs and the vacation season.” ART MADE INTERESTING WHAT DO v P. 8.

Dup to cultivation by the intelligent, in past centuries a minority, the very word had become in effect*a warning signal to the majority citizen until the development of the educational system and the coming of the motion picture. Today the man in the street and the stu dent in his study look upon art alike as a leavening factor in life and civili zation. To proper development of the edu cational system the major credit for this change is due, of course, but the part , of the motion picture is an im portant one. Generally speaking modern educational methods have made art faiqiliar, while the motior picture has made it interesting.
