How to Make Both Ends Meet
Due to the fact that Hoover prosperity
came u|H>n us at a time when
wo were least able to stand it, me and
my old lady decided that we must
economize so that we might save the
money that wo did not happen to
have at that time, and there were
no prospects of us getting any money
either by inheritance, theft, work,
bank, friends, or otherwise?and
that's what gave us the idea.
We took up this intensive economy
campaign on June 1. e managed
to pay nearly 10 per cent of our bills
for tho previous months, and therefore
started off with one side of t'hc

slate clean. We made up our mind*
to pay caeh for everything, but we
had to change trading places, as our
former grocers might find out too
soon that they need not expect any
baok dues and talk about us.
June must be an unlucky month.
My, wife's kinfolks came swarming
in on the second day. We reduced
the cook's salary and she quit. We
changed our telephone from an individual
line to a party line: We
were "J" and IMts. Amos Keeter was
"M", and }ve never got to talk any
for 6 solid days, and we felt that we
wore "Jays" allright. We don't yet
know how Mrs. Keeter ever found
time to scramble the eggs, as she
was so busy with the phone.
"P ' ' '
We quit ham entirely and went to
common Rtreuk-of-lean*iHtd-?treak-offat.
And our indigestion came back
on us. We bought sorghum instead
of maqje. We tried bran instead of
flour till I got choked the third day.
We laid our own eggs and hatched
our own chickens. (Rut we had been
doing that before we took up this
economy plan anew). We cut down
on milk. We changed the style of
soap in the bathroom, and sliced our
own bread.
I pressed my own britches and my
wife pressed her own?dres<s. I quit
sending my 2 collars to the laundry
and wore them soft. We made our
coffee weaker and drank it slower.
We quit baiting the mouse trap with
cheese apd repairing our old fly swatter.
We wrote ohr 2 friends on postal
cards. We changed from I>r. Skinnem's
Liver Fluid to Salts. We went
to the picture shows but didn't g^
inside. (Do you know a fellow can
ge.^ u pretty good idea of what the
show is if he will study the posters
closely ?)
Wo might have got somewhere with
our effort* to wv? if my wife's kinfolk*
had gone home on June the
Fifth instead of July the Fifth.
When we counted up how much wo
had done for ourselves by straining at
a couple of pennies and swallowing
a pearl, we were just exactly 14 dollars
urul 35 cents worse off than we
were when we started. And the
reason tlmt times are so hard I#?
millions of other fools are trying to
do what we tried to do and have quit
trying to live normal lives.
DIBS IN AFRICA.
Son of I>r. James A. Hayne of Stale
Health Hoard.
\ ??
Columbia.?Dr. James A. Hayne,
secretary of the South Carolina board
of health, received a cablegram from
Lagos, Nigeria, Friday, giving him
the sad news that hi? son, Dr. Theodore
B. Hayne, sent to Africa by the
Rockefeller foundation's international
health board to study yellow fever
and gather data to aid in the fight on
the yellow peril, had died from the
disease he had given his life to conquer.
Dr. Hayne was prostrated on receiving
the news. No word has been
received as yet as to what disposition
will be made of the body.
Young I)r. Hayne was a World War
veteran, having served in the aviation
corps. He was a graduate of the Citadel
and also of the State Medical
college at Charleston. He was 32
years old, a member of one of the
State's oldest and most prominent
families.

IVllLDF.R, YES?BUT SOMETHING MORE.
Chesterfield offers richness, aroma, satisfying
flavor.
BETTER TASTE?that's the answer; and
that's what smokers get in Chesterfield in fullest
measure?the flavor and aroma of mellow
tobaccos, exactly blended and cross-blended.
Better taste, and milder too!
