Clemson College, July 15. — The
weekly survey made by the boll weevil
division at Florence shows that the
weevil population is still on the in
crease, especially in fields where no
poison has been applied. In Allendale
county five fields examined showed

Hurried checks shortly after the

in two waves, revealed that a majori

in rescue attempts. Only three per
sons were seriously injured. They
were George De Groughy, manager of
the three story Pizitz department
store, the first to cave in, and the
two Negro employes of the store. The
other building crushed housed the Bul
lock Shoe store, a one-story structure.
Collapsing with hardly a moment’s
warning, the two. upper stories of the
three story Pizitz building crumbled
over into an excavation on one side
and onto the roof of a one-story shoe
store, on the other. Employes of the
stores managed to thread their way
through the falling materials after
a first crash had trapped some jof
them in the rear of the building and
the second floor of the department
store.
Police, firemen and pedestrian^

the poison program over the state as
a whole.

Haven’t you often wished that you could
be with friends who have moved to other cities?
They may be far away, yet you can easily keep in
touch with them; talk over old times, and make
plans for the future. When they’re ill or when
anniversaries and birthdays come around you can
join them with your voice.
Recent service improvements have made distant
telephone conversations a pleasure. Generally, con
nections are made almost as quickly as with local
calls. In most cases you can hear just as clearly as
if you were talking to a friend around the corner.
I
You’ll be surprised, too, to learn how inexpen
sive these voice visits now are. At 8:30 o’clock in
the evening, and again at midnight, reductions are
made in the station-tO-station rates. And long dis
tance calls yeturn so much in the way of friendship
ind satisfaction. Keep friendships alive—by telef>hone.
