Men of the Old Hickory Association,

France, will again march in review
before General Pershing at their third
annual reunion, to be held in Nashrn~"%

fact, it is probable that Marshall Foch.
Generalissimo of all the Allied armies,
who has been invited to accompany
General Pershing to Nashville, will
also be in the reviewing stand.
The parade of the veterans, however,
, will form but a part of the full reunion
program. Men who billeted in
French villages or battle field shelters
three years ago will find the homes of
' Nashville opened to them. T^ans ha'
been made to house and care for not
less than ten thousand veterans and
more if they should come.
Convention sessions will be held in
the Auditorium, with a capacity of '
seven thousand. Dances and other
social features enought to give every
man who coane an opportunity to en.
joy himself are being arranged for by
the hosts of the occasion, the citizens
of Nashville.
Separate headquarters for each of 1
the regiments of the Division will be
established in Nashville, and in the '
' billeting arrangements it is planned
as far as possible, to put men out of
the same outfits in the same section of '
the city.
There will be all sorts of opportuni
ties for old timers to get together and
"fight the war" which started on the
Mexican border for some, at Camp Sevier
for others, and ran all the way
across the seas, over the Hindenbure
Line, through the Argonne, into Bel.
giom and Luxemburg and home again
In the course of its training and
traveling and fighting no Division in
the American Army made a more creditable
showing than did the Carolina ,
and Tennessee troopB. The acheive- .
ment of the division in the first smashing
through the so-called Hindenburg
defense system at Belllcourt, across
the St. Quentin Canal Tunnel, is one
of the outstanding achievements of th
entire war, while the artillery brigade
operating separately in the St. Mihiel.
Argonne and "VVoevre sectors, took
rank as one of the most effective artil.
lery outfits of the army.
Reduced Railroad Rates.
Railroads have granted a reduced
rate of one and one half fares for the
round trip to members of the Division
Association. Members planning to attend
may come to Nashville, paying
the full fare, and there receive their
certificates of membership entitling
H em to half fa e on the return trip
Certificates may be secured in advance
pf the meeting, however, from Frank .

The following statement was issued
by the Darlington bankers after the
meeting: "A meeting of the bankers 1

I*. D. ('. Giro Order For Oil PaJntlng C
of Wade Hampton.
Ahnut two years ago Mr. R. K. Berry *
of Cheraw brought to the attention of
the local Chapter U. D. C. that only a
small steel engraving of Wade Hampton
hung in the Lee Memorial Gallery ^
in Richmond along side of oil paint- s
ings of the other Generals of the Con- 1
tederacy. Mr. Berry said he was ask 0
.... ... .,1 r<n.nltn. "
3d, "II tms was an OilUliJ vai uum
ihought of Gen. Hampton?" The loca' *
Chapter after hearing Mr. Perry peJ a
he matter before the State U. D. C. a
Tonvention who appointed a committee v
:o raise the necessary funds to pro- *
tide an oil painting of Gen. Hampton
:o take the place of the small steel ^
mgraving. b
This committee, of which Mrs. J. H. 0
Kinsey of Cheraw was Chairman, de- b
tided on a plan of asking the school 0
children of the state to contribute a ''
tickle a piece to this worthy under- ^
:aking. A letter was sent to each b
school and the request was met with b
such hearty response that within a a
rery shdrt time the money was in hand n
'or the portrait. Almost every school f<
in the State, both in the towns and B
rural districts gladly contributed to
honoring Hampton. The Cheraw
school among others who did the same, 0
;ave a nickle for every pupil.
After getting the money in hand th* *
committee was faced with other prob. 0
lems. They wanted a picture of Gen- J
?ral Wade Hampton as he was in his a
roupger days, the gallant soldier who b
rode at the head of his column of
lashing cavalrymen into battle and P
:he artist who was to paint the por. c
rait was another decision to make. S1
Now. both problems have been solv- s<
;d. b
Gen. Hampton's daughter secured tl
he much hunted picture which prov. w
3d to be an excellent likeness of bl
Hampton taken during the War. P
A native South Carolinian, Miss 1*
Clara Barrett Strait, who was reared
n Lancaster, S. C., and who was the
jdopted daughter of the late former n
Congressman T. J. Strait of this Fifth w
District has been selected to paint the C
portrait so in a short time an oi' s<

Dear sir: C(
Your letter in reference to Jimmy t(
Mc James, or Doc as I always knew q
I him, recalled to my mind a man who y
in my opinion was one of the greatest p.
pitchers that ever wore a base ball j,
uniform, and I think that I can sav tj
without fear of contradiction that If ti
Doc were alive and in the game at the w
present time he would take rank with ^
the few great pitchers of today. He
was gifted with tremendous speed and
| had the best and fastest breaking
I curve bal lthat I have ever seen. I
! remember him as a big, good natured
lovable character and I am sure that r<
the city of Cheraw and the Old Nation
al grtme sustained a big loss when the n
Great Umpire of the Universe called
the last out on our dear old friend an.-'
pal. Doctor Jimmy McJames.
Sincerely yours,
W. E. Donovan, ^

New York, N. Y.
Dear sir:
Jimmie (Doc) McJames was a fine
character. The type of man who made
friends rapidly ana Kepi mem. nei
w&s one of the star pitchers of hir
day and would compare favorably with C
any of the leading pitchers of today. P:
Base ball cannot well afford to lose H
many men of "Jimmie" McJames'
caliber. e<
Yours truly, di
Hugh Jennings.
While McJames was playing ball in ^
the summer he attended Medical Col- C1
lege in the winter and a year prior 1E
to his death practiced medicine in
Cheraw. He was a brother of Mr. W.

ADVISE PARMERS
TO PLOW UP STALK}
Extension Workers Adopt Resolution
Telling of Methods to Fight
Weevil.
Clemson College, Oct. 11.?At the
closing session of the annual meeting
af the extension forces on Saturday a
resolution was passed strongly urging
that farmers lose no time In plowing
under cotton stalks for the purpose
of destroying the chief hibernation
place of the boll weevil. The resolution
declared that the early fall destruction
of cotton stalks is the mos'
[important single step in the fight
against the weevil, and the discussion
orought out the fact that if cotton
stalks can not be plowed under, they
should be burned, for these winter
hotels of the weevil must be destroy,
ed, but that plowing under is Just as
efficient as burning and is much more
economic as a matter of soil building.
The planting of a winter cover crop
in the present cotton fields was also
urged as a most important means of
weevil destruction, since weevils can
aot live through the winter in a growng
cover crop, such as rye, oats and
retch, or clover, for the reason that
n order to survive the winter the weeMis
must "dry out" to the extent o'
osing one third of his body moisture
tnd this he can not do in a field where
t cover crop is growing. Cotton stalks
lot plowed under or burned in a field
0 be planted to a cover crop should
>e cut to pieces and thrown to the
ground as early as possible by a stalk
:utter so that they may be covered by
he growing cover crop and thus absorb
moisture, which means death to
he weevil.
Still another step which should be
aken now is the cleaning up of the
litch banks, fence rows, and other
ilaces where rubbish and trash acumulate
in and around the fields.
"The earlier stalks and other hi.
lernating places are destroyed," said
>rof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist, in
iscussing the subject, "the fewer
weevils will survive the winter. In
nfested fields it Is common to find
reevils at the rate of 5,000 to 25,000
er acre at the time of first frost
t is a well known fact," Prof. Conadi
explains, ,'that the weevils deeloping
late in the fall are the oner
lost likely to survive the winter, as
hey are not worn out by long flights
nd the rearing of the young, as ar<ae
older weevils. For this reason
cvelopment of weevils in late fa'
lust be prevented at the first step in
laking the next crop."
An interesting point brought ou'
1 the discussion by N. E. Winters
xten3ion agronomist, was the facf
lat experiments in Louisiana showd
that when cotton stalks were de
troyed before October 15 only 3 per
ent of the weevils survived the win?r
whereas destruction of stalk3 or
ctober 27 allowed 15 per cent to surIve;
November 25, 22 per cent; Dec
mber 15 and January 15, 43 per cen*
t is clear, therefore, that the earlier
ie stalks are destroyed, the more ef:ctive
the results will be, but thr'
here early destruction 13 impossible
is better late than never.
