CHEBAW CUBOHICLE i .JOE LINDSAY, Editor Foreicn Advertising Representative THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIA HON 1 wiitm? . A call meeting of the Board of Trade was held Friday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock in the Club Rooms to consider plans for a Peach Convention to be held in Cheraw about the first week in October and to elect / officers for the coming year for the Board of Trade. Although the meeting was well advertised through the ? newspaper and by hand bills placed in every store only two merchants ..t v>moetinp' Wp fppl ?Cl f p I COClt V Ub vuc Iitvvv...0. that the merchants certainly do not realize what rtariing the Peach industry in this community will mean to them three years hence else they would certainly take every oppor. . ^ tunity to boost any movement tending to encourage the planting of peaclies. If the peach raising territory was not within a stones throw of our door demonstrating the possibilities of the industry we could understand this indifference but when we/are facing boll weevil conditions, which will be on" us in another year, one would think the merchant would at least take enough interest to be present at any meeting where any sort of remedy is being put forward. The Board of Trade has a big work before it the next six months and it is a work that affects the welfare of every business man in town. Something has to be done to help the farmer with his problem of what to plant instead of cotton. If you, Mr. Business Man, sit idly by doing nothing to help the situation, you can depend on it you will suffer the consequences as your brothers in other sections have suffered. If you will get busy and line up with other business men in the Board of Trade, come out to the meeting next Friday night and help plan, we may avoid financial troubles wh'chi will surely come if we wait until next year to do something. However, you are the one tc? decide which it will be. Will you fold your hands and give up or eo;n? out and work now before it is too late. o . On the Greek Stage.

An electrically heated garment, deI signed especially for use by aviators,: j has been developed by the genius of ; j an Italian, Antonangelo Negromantl of Milan. It has certain very novel features. In the. high reaches of the 'atmosphere. into which aviators ascend, there is even in summer time cold so severe that the thickest garmeuts of; padded and fur-trimmed leather do not afford adequate protection. The Negromantl coat is woven of threads which, both warp and weft, are electrically resistant wires coated with a fireproof insulating material? nshestos or silk. The wires are connected with a source of electric current (wliich may j he a battery of accumulators), and j also with an apparatus which contains an aneroid barometer. The latter In-' stnuuenr Is associated wlTti n theriuo-j static tube 4n such a way as to vary, 1 he electrical resistance of the wires composing the coat.

In every line of activity the French lave demonstrated wonderful recuperitive powers. What is the reason? There is no question as to the aniwer: it is thrift?not only thrift itself | iut the HABIT of thrift which Is* an mmeasurably bigger thing. France belongs to its people.
