E. J. Powell, of ^Slater, S. C., tells j
us some of the things his grand- I
mother told him. Back in the okl j
days my grandmaw used one of those >
old-time black iron fireplace stewing j
pots to cook in. Thus particular put.;
! ?he sa.d, had been handed down to
" ?;er by her grandmaw. W hen new it
j held two gallons and had peg legs ;
I three inches high, but she used it so
hard and so long, th? legs became1
i worn down to the s.ze of carpet tacks '
and the pot would hold no more than i
a cupful. When it bee&ne as small
as this she poured kerosene in it ar.d
f set it inside her shelf c.ock to keep
the wheels froffi rusting. This clock
was so old, s)pe said, the shadow from
the pendulum had wom a hole in the
; back of the case.
One day grandmaw was walking up
in the mountains when she came upon j
a man with a long gray beard. He '
rooked very old, and could walk only ;
with extreme difficulty even with :
crutches. He was crying. Grand- J
maw questioned him, "Old man, what !
are you crying about?" He answerled
through his tears: "Pappy slapped
' me for sassing his grandpaw." My
i grandmaw askgd i^ the man s great
i grandpa was really living, and cn be
:r.g tola that he was, indicated her j
ie>ire to see him. The old man mo- '

Mrs. Blease. *ho before her mar ,
rsai w%? Miss Ullie Summers,1 was
born at Pendleton, Anderson county,
the daughter of H. C? and |ier) ,
uggs Summers. In her early
childhood, her parents moved to
Helena. Newberry! county, and in
lMM>;! sho and Mr. Blease were mar
j^edt . . 1
A keen observer and judge of human
nature, she gave her husband j
invaluable aid and counsel in his legal
and political affairs which included,
four years in the governor's officej
and six in Washington as senator. A
friend said of her tonight:
"I have known Mr. and Mrs. B.t-as*.
for many years. I never knew a
more devoted wife nor one more nelpr j
ful to her husband. Going back to j
their early married life "in Newberry
I recall her as a beautiful woman,
seemingly hardly more than a g?rl?j
w*<th(>glorious red hair and buoyancy j
of spirit which radiated cheer and
happiness; - ? ,
"As the years passed ana the
turmoil and passions of politics beat
upon the path which she walked with,
her husband, wherever it led, ahe j
never lost that spirit which she had |
inherited from a long line of distinguished
ancestors, nor did her <5evotion
to her home or his interests
ever become wearied."
"Can-a-Cow" Economy Slogan
How many cans to a cow? Perhaps
you have,pot been in the habit,
of visualizing eVe>Tbovine you happen
to see in terms df the number of
cams of meat she would put on the
storage shelves against a lean winter.
This, however, is exactly what I
Miss .Sadie Craig, home demonstra-., j
tion agent, and Miss Mary Hayes,
emergency worker, did when they j
supervised the canning of parts of a
! cow and two hogs on the farm of J. i
; H. Walker on January 3. j
The canning demonstrated hew,
surplus and unprofitable rarm* animals
may be turned into wholesome,
economical and delicious food for the
entire family.
Slaughtering and dressing of the
animals took place the day before.
A crew of workers at the demonstration
assisted in cutting find preparing
the meat, sealing it in tin c^ns,
and processing them in the steam
pressure. Around sixty-eight cans of
roasts, steaks, stew, sausage and the
like were canned.
There was a very large funeral for
J. Lawrence McGee, a prominent farmer
of Starr, in Anderson county,
who died at his home aged G5 years.
He was a large land owner in Ander- i
.sor county where he was born, the
sor. of Col. Jesse McGee and lived
here all his life. He was a large

The killing added another triumph
to police in their fight to rid the nation

history in recent months.
KluL&s was shot down by a police
squad which forced' its way into his
Hideaway while he was absent. The
officers opened fire on Klutas when
he drewr his gun as he entered the
house, suspicious that all was not
well. .
Two other men were .captured in

Klutas was or.e of the most sought-1

for whom no quarter would be gi\en.
He was under indictment in Chicago
