through a variation of standards and
a diversity of methods by which it
might be achieved. Physical beauty,
as a natural gift has always been
highly prized and never more so than
at the present time.^Jt has remained,
j»erhaps, for modem science and art to
lend their aid to the seekers after
comeliness to a greater extent than
ever before in the history of the world.
The tendency of the age seems to be
to rejoice in your natural beauty if
you have any and if you have it not

A fine way t* avoid worrying over
your duties is to discharge them.
You have noticed, also, that a gentle
man never has to proclaim the fact.
The shade-trees that now line
Broadway, Main, Centennial, Mus-
grove, Phinney ave., and other shorter
streets are beginning to reward the
town for the pains taken to set them
out six, eight and ten years ago. The
town will shortly be a lovely spot.
Nothing struck us so much in several
continental cities as the splendid
shade-trees beautifying cities like Pa-
n$, Antwerp, Brussels and many
more. Our own Columbia is one of the
loveliest of American cities because of
it. We trust that our council will not
conclude that the work is done, but
v»ill fill up the gaps in the present
trees and continue the shade to the
extreme verge of the town limits.
Information Requested
The Stephen D. Lee chapter, U. D.
C., desires information as to the
whereabouts of one of the polished
stone balls missing from the Confed
erate monument base. There are
three of these balls missing. Two of
them are at Sadler-Owens Pharmacy,
but the third cannot be found. Any
one who has any information as to the
whereabouts of this ball will confer a
great favor, and assist in restoring the
monument base to its original design
by giving information to the under
signed as to the whereabouts of the
missing ball.
