But lht‘se old ' r^odeled
sjones in the East Fifties and Sixties
have their days numbered, probably,
for when Rockefeller Center offide
buildings are all filled up, there’ll be
too great a demand for apartment

ing on Lake Murray.^^ was continued
brown^lyesterday but without success.
Two members of tjie Columbia fire
department, R. C. ^mith and A. H.
Shull, again dragged the .section of the
lake where Gray was last seen. They
left the lake^te in the afternoon and
after arriving back at headquarters
reported that they were unable to lo
cate the body. They reported, that a
party of citizene from Newberry coun
ty suriv^d at the lake about the time
they were leaving and took up the
search where they left off and others
remanied in the vicinity during the
night to watch for*the body in the
event it should rise to the surface
Gray was believed drowned when
he fell or Jumped from the boat after
it had become ignited from a flaming
motor. Opinion is held that fumes
from the gscsoline tank of the boat
were ignited by a cigaret or match.
At the time the boat caught fire, it
was occupied also by Mi.ss Irene T<idd,
a school teacher of the Gray Court
section. She jumped out, at Gray's
Command, and swam to shore and ex

I must j(ay that' some g'^ physi-

there is not a single scientific
reason for their being due to maternal
impressions.
Moles are very common affections
of the skin. Many are small and cause
no trouble except disfigurement. Most
of them are small. I had a friend who
had a very large naevus, that involved
the right eye, right cheek, upper lip
and ear. He consulted many physi
cians,f most ^ whom were afraid of
arousing a cancer;' my friend died
carrying Ws disfigurement.
The structure of a mole is chiefly
enlarged blood-vessels. I have removed
small one* by tying a fine silk thread
veiy tightly around them at the base.
The treatment is painful for a few
days; but fades into moderate itching,
and the mole drops off, to be heard of
no more.
“Hairy moles” are prone to appear
on the faces of women. Somrtimes
they disappear when the hair is re
moved by an electric needle. Pioneer
mothers believed “hairy moles” were
caused by the mother being frightened
at a mouse or rat.
I have cut away “hairy moles” with
success, where there was no danger
of scarring; but^^that Is hardly the best
treatment. The best procedure is to
Consult a specialist. He may suggest
radium.

were believed to have become ignited
from a match or cigaret,*thereby set
ting the boat on fire.
Chief Marsh and a group of firemen
went to Lake Murray about 7:30 yes
terday morning to search for the body
but not knowing the exact scene of
the tr^agedy, searched for a while in
the wrong direction. Later, how’ever,
Miss Todd, who was saved when she
jumi>eil from the boat and swam to
the shoiv, went to the lake and desig
nated where the boat was located
when she last saw it, all aflame and.
still occupied by Gray.
The water where the tragedy oc-
curred. the fire chief siiid, was from
100 to 125 feet deep.
“We dragged the section in every
possible direction, but the bottom was
rough and tore up our drags. After
four or five hours we ran out of ma
terials and haT to come backjto Co
lumbia.”
\In the 'meantime watchmen were
kept on the scene to watch for' the
body to rise.
The searching party had three boats,
each with drag nets. Besidee Marsh,
this party included Fireman E. H.
Broome, R. C. Smith, H. E. Ulmer, W.
B. Busby, M. S. Moore. Sheriff Os
wald of Lexington county and others
ranks in pushing him aside as punieh-
ment for his precipitate action, reiter
ated his intention of campaigning and
spoke here last night at a huge “Share
our w^th” memorial meeting for
Senator Lo^.
After themeeting he met A. K. Kil
patrick, Monroe business man and
Long leader, in a hotel lobby and, af
ter exchanging a few words, struck
Kilpatrick twice in the face with ‘his
fist, knocking him down.
Friends separated the two men and
they left the hotel. Both declined to
discuss the altercation.
The memorial meeting w’as called by
the Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith, national
organizer of the “Share Our Wealth”
clubs, but Smith did not appear for an
address.
