DesChamps,inc PHONE 567 THE HIGH FLYERS Practical air navigation at alti tudes of eight miles or more is pre dicted for the not very ditsant fu ture by conservative aircraft engin eers, and actual plans lor such devel opment are being1 seriously consider ed, according to Popular Science. At least two aviators have already attained an altitude of approximate ly eight miles, at which the temp erature is between 60 and 7U degrees below zero. Py means of balloons it has been determined that beyond this altitude it does not get any cold er, so the problem of temperature might be readily solved. Owing to the rarity of the atmos phere at such heights, an artifical supply of oxygen is necessary, and such has been carried by the pioneers j in exploring the upper air. This ' rare atmosphere also presents anoth er problem, in that resistance to the airplane propeller is reduced, making j more powerful motors necessary ir. order to keep the craft aloft. This does not appear to b^ an in superable difficulty. A young German engineer pro poses to build a plane to navigate these upper reaches of the air at a speed of more than 650 miles an hour. Recently the famous plan?\ designer, Sikorski, predicted "a r.ew type of airplane with highly super charged motors and an inclosed cabin with air kept under approximately normal pressure to permit flying nt high altitudes with speeds of say V)0 to 500 or more miles ar. hour.1' Incredible as it seems now. no ono can say with certainty that it cai. not be done. - ' Tfpp-ulnr communication o* this lod^re i? held on thf firct Tuesday in pnch mnnt.V it R p. m.

Beetles are beginn ing their destructive work through out the county and immediate steps should be taken for their control and suppression. These beetles are about a quarter inch long, brown . with 16 dots on their back, 8 dots on each wing. These beetles may be controlled by dusting with a mixture of Magnes ium Arsenate with lime or a mixture of Calcium Arsenate and lime. If Cal cium Arsenate and lime are used mix these ingredients thoroughly in the following proportions: Calcium Arsenate 1 part, Hudrated lime 9 parts. If Magnesium Arsenate and lime are used mix these thoroughly in the following proportion: Mag nesium Arsenate, 3 parts, Hydrated lime, 5 parts. There is less danger of burning with Magnesium arsenate than with Calcium arsenate. Dust both the upper and under sides of leaves every 10 days to 2 weeks af ter appearance Of the beetlo until they are brought under control.

ME AND MY DADDY WENT A-FISHING By ERMINE R. MADDOX Me and My. Daddy went a-fishing Down on old Twenty Creek And how my hart was full of wishing For if I didn't catch any I'd be sure to weep. And before I got to tho lano gate On an old root I stumped my toe Fell down and spilled half the bait Which made mo so mad I started nor to go. Put I changed my mind and curbed my tongue As Dad was depending on mo for the bait And to catch him I had to really run For he'd be sure to fuss if he had to wait. Still he went on and took the best place Telling me to go below So I went down to the old Mill race Mad again to think he would beat me so. Then on Sherman's foot-log I took a seat Pausing a minute my poor toe to nurs? Still determined My Daddy's fishing to beat Even if it did hurt so bad I wanted to curs (So I fished all afternoon long Getting just one little bite (And would have fished until early dawn Hut with the spooks I had fear nf a fight. This one little fish clung to my hook Until I got him almost to tho bank Then he bid me farewell and fluttered back to the brook, And now, even among Amateur fish erman I take a rear rank. er, Mary Hane S'teadman.

Dependable Ambulance SERVICE KORNEGAY FUNERAL HOME Phone 103 Camden, S. 0, GIZZARD INSPECTION In a certain district of Columbia, South America, every chicken killed must be presented to government au thorities for inspection. This is not a health measure, such as governs the sanitary slaughter of food animals in this country, but is a requirement to prevent the chicken owner from coming into unauthoriz ed possession of any stray emeralds ^which may happen to bo found in the bird's gizzard. For in that section is located the only emerald producing territory in | the southern continent, and towls of ten pick up the precious stones in preference to ordinary gravel. An American company is conduct ing emerald mining operations in Columbia, using the primitive meth ods employed by the early Spaniards, because tho region is ho inaccessible as to make the transportation of modern equipment too costly. However, recovery of emeralds by the chicken method is only a minor phaso of tho enterprise. FOR RENT? FURNISHED BED room with private bath. Best resi dential section. Summer rates. Telephone 152.

EDISON MARSHALL Author of "Forlorn Island" Edison Marshall, the author of the unusual story, "Forlorn Is land/' which we are to publish se rially, is especially well known in the field of American literature. Aslted for a brief sketch of him self and his work, he has given us the following: "I come naturally by a love of adventure and far places. The Marshalls arrived from England in 1654. They always kept close to the frontier ? Illinois by 1830, California, in 1849; and only came back when there was a chance to get in on a war. "I was born in Indiana Father had returned from California, and was editor and publisher of a news paper in 1894. We all went out to Oregon in 1907, and I didn't get back till the war. Getting a taste for outdoor adventure in the big Oregon wood*, I have since hunted big game all over Alaska; the Aleutians, in the Arctic sea; the Siberian Coast; Africa, and southern Asia. * "I wrote 'The Heart of I.ittle Shikara' twelve years ago, before I had ever been in India. "I am the author of a good many novels of romantic adven ture, among the best being "The Snowshoe Trail," "The Mission ary, " and "The Doctor of Lone some River," an I "Forlorn Is land." I will never write anything but romance, as I believe it is the highest form of fiction, and it is what I like." Mr. Marshall might have added that he won the O. Henry memori al prize for the best short story in 1921; that he endowed the Kdison Marshall annual short story con test at the University of Oregon, his alma mater; that he has been very much of a world traveler to out of the way places including Alaska, ^Siberia, Central Africa, Indo-China, India and numerous other sections.
