Charleston h?? started a campaign Of large proportions kpowu as the Buyat-Hotae movenjant, The name indicates the purpose of the organization. It is composed of business men who propose to make SERVICE the basis of their campaign to induce the people of the city to buy at home and to support home Industries. The business men who ask thb people of the city to do this will first place themselves in position to sell the people what they want and need to render service of the highest class to the public. They will then demand that the people stand by their own business concerns and deal with them. A campaign of education will be waged, by means bf which the public will be informed of the purposes and importance of the movement and Public sentiment and community entnuSlasm aroused tq a pitch which will make the movement ft success from the htari From this point of view the movement appears to be one dictated by good judgement and s<\und business principles. If it is good for Charleston it Will be a good thing for other towns - and cities in Sonth Carolina. The Cheraw board of trade should investigate with a view of adapting somethihng of the sort to the needs of this place. The Charleston campaign is being promoted by the Retail Merchants' Association. SUBMARINES NETTED, IS TALE IN LONDON One Report Has It That Germans Have Lost 34?Nets Plated Around supply Bases. London,, May |25^?Rumors from Copenhagen that German naval authorities admit the loss of seventeen submarines since the opening of the war are generally believed here. In fact, many English officials are inclined to believe the German subma rtne losses are considerably greater than seventeen, ue report has placed the number at thirtyfour. Ever since the two Gdrman submarines were taken and their crews were made prisoners by the English it has been generally believed in England that many captures were being made which the Admiralty did not care to make public. Wire nets placed by the Admiralty in waters where German submarines may "lie in wait for ships are supposed to have made it possible to capture some of them. These nets are much like woven wire fencing, except that their meshes are much coarser. By means of wooden blocks the nets are kent submerged at about the depth submarines! strike the nets their fins; and propellers become entangled in the wire and they are forced to rise to the surface. When a submarine hit a net an electrical connection flashes a signal to aome naval base, thus making it possible for naval craft to rush to the placed by the Admiralty In waters entangle itself. The British and French navies have located many of the oil tanks planted by the Germans to supply petrol to the submarines, and nets are reported to have beeen placed near these sup ply stations. Rumors have been circulated that in seme cases flie Englishh have diluted the i?etrol in the (Jltnnlr tonbu onrl mtrn/1 U With chemicals which would ruin submarine engines if they attempted to use It THE SEFTON GIRLS 1 By A. TENNY SPRING. (Copyright. Ifll4. by W. O. Chapman.) j "Sorry you bave to go back to New York, old man," Bald F?d Holmes to Arnold RRtenhouse. ( The two youns men bad been 1 friends at college and aver since. They had been enjoying a fishing vaca ] tlon together when Rittenhouse's firm ( summoned him on a mafter of urgent , business, which would cut three days out of his holiday. However, Arnold was to rejoin his friend as soon aa possible. ( "I hope you won't find It too hot In ' August," Holmes continued. "I used I to think New York made a good sum- 1 meriQg piace, wjin a cooi apartment and most of the people gone. But I don't know that I want to see the cRy again." He sighed, with the despondency ol twenty-five. FYed was a young man of means and could inake his home wherever he chose. He had had an unhappy love affair, the details of which he had confided to his friend. It was the case of an ambitious mother In Europe set upon a title for her daughter, a dangling suitor with the prospect of an earl's coronet, and a young American eating out his heart in loneliness. , "Honest, Arnold, If you could see Rita I think you'd be as crazy about her as I am," he said to his friend. "She's got a little sister, Beth, that's almost as stunning, toe. Now Beth la a regular madcap. If only the mother had picked her for the marriage! But she took Rita to Europe and left Beth behind. The old earl can't last long, and his brother, who's fift? If he*B a day, Isn't good ehough to wipe Rita's shoes!" Arnold had rented a furnished apartment for the summer months through an agent, the owners having gone to Europe till September. He was glad to have this refuge when he returned ' ' "No!" 8?ld the Young Lady. I g to the broiling city. New York w?i oppressively hot, and the apartment on Riverside Drfve, was cool and dart 1 A current of air blew up the Hudson. I rendering It oho of the most habitable places south at the Adirondack. Rlttenhouse flung himself down In hte rented morris chair that evening with a sigh of relief. Not for him the amusement of sitting In a hot theater listening to a comedian wheezing to an almost empty house! He kne* better than that He was going to cut his stay in New York as short as possible by the simple process oi sleeping as long as he Fas able. And the firm had promised him an extra week. He took off his coat and unbuttoned >*4o oftllor T>?on wlfh natural rw&rvAr* *440 VVitat. 4 uvu, M. r.. . m slty, the collar button slipped out of his fingers. It would no doubt have rolled under the bureau had that not been Impossibly far away. Therefore It chose the next best place; It rolled under the bed. With an unscrlptural remark, Rlttenhouse got down on his hands and knees and went after It. He found It In the farthest corner. He was Just about to emerge when the door opened and a young lady came In. Rlttenhouse was struck dumb with amazement. The young lady Immediately proceeded to the mirror and took a powder puff out of her reticule. Rlttenhouse choked with horror. The young lady started. She looked around. Then, apparently reassured that nothing had happened, she began to unstrap a light suitcase which Rlttenhouse now perceived she had brought In with her. She stooped over It and picked up something. The next Instant Rlttenhouse perceived that he was looking into the wicked eye of a glllieinig reiunci. "Come out of there or I flre!" said the young lady. Rittenhouse came out. He scrambled to his feet. On the chair lay his tell-tale coat. Doubtless It was , thi9 and not the choke that had startled his visitor. "May I put on my coat and button my collar?" inquired Rittenhouse, as the revolver perked upward at his attempt to move. "No," said the young lady. "What are you doing In my apartment? Hands up! Don't you dare put tbem down!" "It's mine," said Rktanbouse humbly. "I rented It from Flood for the season." - v . '? . . / *>- - vJ?.t> 4 *...r; . '' ' :- < ; . , WTLLISTON, N.
