To that end, great care has been given to the educational, entertainment and social sides, that a well-rounded program might be offered to the thousands of visitors. ' For months, in fact, ever since the last fair closed, i the officials have been busy and a month ahead of the dates practically every detail is arranged.f South Carolina's agriculture, livestock, poultry, dairying, marketing and kindred things; its natural resources, particularly the iodine properties of the state's vegetables, fruit and grain; its industrial progress; its manufacturing; its colleges; its progress and its needs along all lines of development have been given their places, in the great pargmima that will pass before the visitor's eyes. The Clemjion-Carolina game is the top spot in the entertainment, but far from the only feature of that kind, there being a galaxy of star events to please and amuse. And, as usual, the Fair Gorunds will be the main cross-roads of South Carolina, where old friends are seen and the new friends made?the great annual meeting place of Palmetto State. Opening day. sees the start. Then comes Iodine Day on Tuesday, apd Agricultural Day on Wednesday. Big Thursday is South Carolina Day, anJ Friday is School Day, when thousands of children will come to the Fair to see, learn and have a good time. Saturday is closing day. I , Barn Burned Tuesday about 12:00 to 12:30 the barn at the home of Mrs. Roland Hearon was burned together with about five bales of 4eed cotton, cottonseed, a mule and farm implements. There was no insurance on the property The' ckuse ~of the fire is not known. The Bishopville fire department responded but as it was beyond the water limit, being out of the corporate limits, little good could be done.?'Bishopville Messenger. OKLAHOMA FROG 8TORY Three Toads Taken AliVe From Indian Mound Oklahoma City, OklA., Sept. 30.? Three toads taken alive from an Indian mound in northwestern Oklahoma where scientists said they probably had been imprisoned for t)iree or djour centuries, were on display here today at the State Historical Society museum. J. B. Thoburn, curator of the hisanjphibians depended largely \jpon the origin of the mount. If the elevation was made by hand, he said, it is probable the toads were imprisoned 300 or 400 years; if it was of natural origin, the age of the toads might be even greater. Thoburn and two other archaeologists made the discovery while excavating the mound, believed to be the ruins of an imitation pueblo. The toads were dormant ^ith lips and eyes sealed, Thoburn said, but within a few moments after being liberated, hopped about with agility, their lips and eyes opened. Each in a small pit about three or four feet below the surface of the ground with no means of egresi or ingress. Above them but still some distance below the surface was the remains of a sunken fire pit of a lodge believed to have belonged to a band of Commanche or Kiowa Indians who until approximately 50 years ago roamed the plains of this section. The curator pointed to this fact as proof that the toads had lived in their dormant positions for centuries. The discovery was made two miles northeast of Gate. The hardened earth, caused by a long drought, precluded further excavation, Thoburn said, and mechanical equipment will be needed to carry on the work. The toads probably will be turned over to biologists of the University of Oklahoma for observation, Thoburn said.

Zemp, Druggist, ' m miii ifiaashgSBg Nobody's Business ?.?? > " Written (or The Chronicle by Gee McGee, Copyright, 1928. ' Sweetheert, Take This letter" I hired a stenographer once. ThU ih how she wrote my first letter; l>ear Sir: We are sorry that we t??nn ot use a car ofcorn at this*'' ; as our t>een is fill ed to capaccity, but when weget in the mark et again: we will get your prises." She used the touch system?touched me foi 20 a week?for 3 weeks. (That was 7 years ago.) *' M 1 I Li"Of course good spelling and good grammar help a stenographer to get a good job, but good looks are a great aid to holding that job and getting an increase in salary every how and then. 1 knew a stenographer once ,who did not chew gum, and I have heard of one that did not use paint on anything except furniture and flower pots, I have never been able to successfully dictate a letter to u pretty girl: I can't keep my mind on the letter. I don't like to try to dictate nohow-.?I want her to talk to me some. And anothep** thing, I can't think of what I am expecting to write about, It must have been a terrible thing to be nice to stenographers before dreses got short. It ain't nice to talk to your wife about your stenographer unless you are abusing her. She's suspicious to begin with I never brag on mine about the house. It is possible that I say something about her aptitude to swap periods for commas and interrogation points for dashes, but I leave off her figger and her pretty clothes and her cold black hair. Stenographers are fine for filing papers where nobody can ever find them, that is?some stenographers are. My stenographer can file a finger nail and put her hand right on it 6 weeks later, and she is the same way about letters and bills and bogus checks. And by the way, I wish somebody would invent a cabinet _ where "bad" checks could be placed?so's they could be forgot till they were ^>d. But as little as you think about it, stenographers do about 95 per cent of all the work that is done in the average office. The boss < thinks up the excuses for not remitting, and apologizes for his merchandise not being up to expectations, but it's the girl that keeps things a-going. Yes, sir ree: I'm glad that it ain t stylish any longer to have boys ornamenting a business man's offic^ any longer. A New Organization flat rock, s. C.

Bonfire of Old Paper Money A steady glow arising from the city dump grounds in Washington, day and night, marks the passing of billions of dollars. For months a ..funeral pyre of the large sized bills of the old currency has been blazing and it is thought that most of the old paper money now has gone up in smoke. Seven or eight tons of it have been destroyed daily. True to predictions of treasury officials, the old bills, in less than a year from the time they became "doomed dollars," now are almost curiosities. The old-time purchasing power for the luxuries and necessities of life gets quite a formal funeral before it passes into nothingness, however. As an old 5- or 20-spot, battered and worn from years of journeying, comes limping into port, it is received at the treasury department and put into trunks which are carefully sealed. No one except treasury officials knows how much is in the trunks. Then the bills are taken back to the bureau of engraving find printing for funeral service. There they are placed in a big macerator, which makes short work of the bills. Regardless of the history of the bills, their end is the same?a shapeless mass of dirty white pulp. And the glow from the dump pile continues. G: fr; Smith,?a former?oil mill worker of Allendale, was arrested in Allendale Wednesday and charged with the murder of his 26-year-old brother, Richard Smith, whose mangled and mutilated body was found near the tracks of the Charleston Western Carolina railway in Allendale on September 22. Smith was the fourth person arrested in connection with the man's death. England's oldest cat, aged 27 1-2 years,, lives at Wigan, and is 'still willing to fight any dog which comes along.
