That*gave him his chance. By and by he sold his interest to Ford for thirty million dol lars. If he hadn’t saved the nine hun dred dollars, he could not have the Government suing him for nine mil lion dollars. * Moral: Save something, if only a little.

(•dv); County Highway Commissioner Writes Of Splendid Cooperation Being Extended By Solona. At a meeting of the Laurens County Highway Commission, held January 24, a> resolution of thanks and appre ciation was passed, commending the county delegation for its splendid work in collaboration with the high way commission in securing final set tlement of the total amount and terms of payment of reimbursement from the State Highway commission on construction done by Laurens county on routes 7 and 10. Nearly two years ago the State Highway commission agreed lo reim burse on those projects. Later a res olution was passed by the State High way commission guaranteeing that the reimbursement would not be less than $100,000, but the exact amount has been a question at issue ever since. In the meantime the State Highway department personnel has changed somewhat. Last weet a hearing was obtained before the State Highway department, at which the county delegation to a man was present to aid the highway commission in securing a satisfactory agreement as to the total amount of reimbursement and terms of settle ment. The delegation is working su perbly with the highway commission ir behalf of the county, and very fully deserves the resolution of appreciation by the Laurens Coounty Highway commission. The Laurens County commission last week presented through the chair man of the reimbursement committee a petition and resolutions which it is thought to have passed by the State Highway department, determining the principles upon which the reimburse ment calculations were to be made. Owing to the large number of the joint body and the limitation of time ir. which a hearing could be had, not all of the Laurens county people pres ent could be heard, but excellent speeches were made by Messrs. A. C. Todd, James H. Sullivan, Phil Huff and P. F. Patton, with the net result ot improving materially, the situation from Laurens county standpoint. It is now to be hoped that reim bursement will cover the entire cost of the Calhoun highway and of route 10, Cold Point to Waterloo, and Wa terloo to Calhoun highway, with de duction of the top soil. A hearing of the joint bodies will be had on the third Thursday of February, when the matter will no doubt be settled. In the meantime Laurens county is to be congratulated upon the perfect har mony, and united effort of the county delegation and the highway commis sion in her behalf. J. F.

HASTINGS CO., SEEDSMEN, ATLANTA, GA automobile horns were booming, pho tographers’ flashlights lighted up the crowd. And at the rear^xit from the prison another crowd was waiting to see the three bodies carried ou£. A special police force was obliged to fight the deeply interested crowd. A FIRESIDE CHAT "Keep , the feet warm, the head cool, and the bowels open.” I was told by the old college professor, that strict observance, to this command would insure a healthy body at all times. - I can think of at least fifty serious disorders, including fatal disuse of the kidneys, and dangerous liver dis orders, that have their origin in con stipation. From ordinary auto-intox ication we go from bad to worse; the kidneys break down in their futile at tempts to carry away the body-poi sons; the gall-bladder becomes infect ed; the stomach rebels; ;the blood be comes more vitiated; the heart finally weakens dangerously.— and all be cause of neglected bowels. A stitch in time is worth nina^gpplied too late. The question of cold feet is increas ingly evident in these winter days. The low-pattern shoe is the correct thing in fashion; but I am yet uncon vinced that the low shoe is not a shortener of life, and I know it is a menace to health; especially for wo men. The silk stocking, the “goose pimples” beneath and (he congested lung make the thoughtful physician wonder if the added attractiveness is worth the price! * Light head dressing should be worn, summer or winter. Tight-fitting hats are conducive to bald heads, which are perhaps minor effects of head wrapping; both scalp and face are freshened and invigorated by contact with winter air. The idea of envelop ing the neck and head in fur and fea thers, and the lower third of the per son in thin silk, carries little appeal from the healthy race standpoint. .1 CHURCH NEWS iN CHURCH Bette, Pastor ASSOCIATE REFORMED PRES BYTERIAN C.

This is the most intense experience to which humanity is subject. It has more to do with the happiness of one’s life, more to do with the mak- ing. or unmaking of one’s character than almost anything else. Most of us do not live in our intelli gence, but we live in our emotions. We live by sentiment. And the ex perience of falling in love stirs the deepest emotions, of the human' heart.

It is more important for a man rightly to pick out the kind of woman whom he is to love than to make any other decision. And it is well known that love plays the most important part in every woman’s life. Love has been responsible for i most human happiness and for a great Crowds that howled around the French guillotine, or that tilted up their gin bottles as they shouted en couragement to murderers on the British gallows, were not entirely dif- feVent from human beings of today. 14 of the 21 points, making good nine of eleveji free shots, and in the two Gray Court games, she was responsi ble for 45 of the 50 points made. These four games have given hef a total of 88 points, an average of 22 points each game. With the exceptioin of the opening minutes, Clinton was always in the lead, though at no time was that lead very large. In these opening minutes, Lescsne, the Thornwell captain, gave her team a lead of five to nbthing, but Cooper soon tied the score, and Thornwell was never in the lead there- part of human tragedy. There is no crisis in one’s career where he reeds to use more judgment and guiding intelligence than in this crisis. Love is one of those inspirations that come from we know not where. The Buddhists think that they can re member some occurrence in a former career. Perhaps that is as good an explanation of it as any. For when love comes it carries all before it. It is curious to reflect that this mat ter is in the hands of the comparative young people. In other words, the de- SEABOARD ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE OF TRAINS CLINTON, S. C.
