Ras kob, financial bead of the four billion dollar General Motors Company, is Democratic National Chairman. Owen a.' UnK' ^airman of the Board of u* ^,t?aerul Electric Company, one of i the biggest corporations in America, I is asked to run for Governor by 1 Democrats in New York. V\ illiam Jennings Bryan, where he dwells in-'bliss, doubtless shudders at all this. But these are practical days; big business is practical, and it is well to recognize things as thev are. Some Real Calvinista Some ?alvinista, it seems, are still SfiL10^8*8 John. Queen Wilhelmina, of Holland, will not attend the Olympic games. Calvinista in Holland are urged <to stay away from what stern preachers call "a carnival of the flesh." Dutch Calvinista say the Olympic games turn men away from Golgotha to Greco-Roman paganism. A majority of human beings have abandoned the John Calvin theory, which included the burning alive of Dr. Stevetus on slight provocation, believing that the good Lord wants people to enjoy themselves occasionally. Jailers and Criminals Crime organisation seems to reach almost everywhere. One Sunday morning two dangerous man-killing gunmen escaped from Sing Sing Prison. The same morning two Sing Sing Prison guards were arrested, accused of blackmailing motorists on the highway. No wonder prisoners escape, when the jailers by night are highway blackmailers by day. A fine example to the prisoners, in "reforming" prison atmosphere. -f The. Talking Movies Jjpritsa will tslk and sing in a talking movie. "These Talkies" make a good start with this artist.

It lives ^irth rate is lower. But old people, he says, are no longer proud of their age and little reverence is paid it. Today the number of those past fifty is fifty per cent greater tfhan in 1870. Age is nothing to be proud of, since we grow old in spite of ourselves. But to be hard at work when you are old, and EFlFUjOlBNTLY at work, is something. Young ladies that "don't seem to get any proposals" will marvel on hearing that our Peggy Joyce is about to be married again. This will be her fifth husband and her second nobleman. Once Miss Joyce was the Countess Gosta Moerner, but she gave that up. The Commoners had "good money." Happy No. 5, if everything goes smoothly, wul be Lord Nortfhesk, whose wife, formerly Miss Jessica Brown, is now divorcing him. , .r^How does she do it?" young ladies ask. How did Helen of Troy do it, or Cleopatra? Miss Joyce, it is said, has a certain dash and swing it! a night club that electrify the atmosphere. ' There are many "live ones" in night clubs. ?, Springs to Leave Charlotte? -^According to The Charlotte News indications ~ are that Col. Leroy Springs will soon move his place of residence from Charlotte. It will be recalled that several months ago M r. Springs bought a home on Queens Road, Myers Park, Charlotte. It was said that the home was purchased at a price of $7f>,000. The News states that the property has been placed in the hands of real estate men for sale, and. while it has not yet been sold it 'is said that Mr. Springs does not intend to return to Charlotte to make his home. For weeks the doors and windows of the striking residence have been barred and the lawn and yards are .beginning to show signs of neglect. Sooq after moving to Charlotte from Lancaster Mr. Springs was shot by Eldred Griffith; well kn own cotton broker;of Charlotte. Shortly after the trial in Meckleniburg^county court Mr. Springs Teft Charlotte and has been raaldftfr his home at the Hit* Tuwei, New York City. ~ m yon!l . * phrmber 40 years old.

L.I . . - I 1 Master Farmers Farmers9 Week ! - j Clemson -College, Aug.- 4.?Sixteen ; of South Carolina's foremost farmI ers have been chosen to receive the^ I title of Master Farmer bestowed by ] the Progrssive Farmer Magazine and I the Clemson College Extension Service on Thursday, August 16, at Farmers' Week here, at which time s they will ibe awarded medals and cer| tificates and the public will be told | about their remarkaJble records. Forty farmers scattered widely over j the State were nominated "by their neighbors and friends and were scored by competent judges by a rigid 1 ?i? score card from the standpoint of profession of business and of citizenship and from this number the honored 16 were chosen. They are as follows together with the counties they -represent: Col. It. B. Watson, Ridge Springs," State at large; W. K. Smith, Hampton; H. L. Lake, Aiken; J. F. Fairey, Calhoun; E. L. Culler, Orangeburg; W. N. Henderson, Greenwood; T. W. Gaston, Spartanburg; J. Wade Drake, Anderson; James R. Reid, Chester; J<L. Gettys, Kershaw; W. B. Wilkerson, York; J. F. Williams, Sumter; C. W. Rogers, Marion; J. B. Clarkson, Williamsburg; S. W. Mimms, Dorchester; A. V. Bet"hea, Dillon. Each of these men, Mr. C. L. Newman, of the Progressive Farmer, says, has made a remarkable record, which compares favorably with the Master Farmers who have been chosen in 20 other states, proving: that South Carolina's best farmers measure up with the best in the country. It is expected that this list of masters of the farming profession will be enlarged from time to time, but a high standard of excellence has been established as a precedent. Governor K. G. Hardman, of Georgia, has issued another statement in which he says he intends to support Smith and Robinson in November. Senator Harrison, of Mississippi, who delivered a number of political speech ?rs last week, predicts victory by un-> precedented majorities in November. j i Sentinels of Safety ALONG the lines of the l Southern you will see these vigilant guardians. The movement of trains on the Southern's fast passenger and high train density lines is protected and expedited by automatic train control devices as well as by electric block signals.
