SCHOOL CHILDREN AN D THE
FAIR
Many observers have commented on
the great improvement in the appearance
and marching of the school children
of the county, when they moved
in Camden on School Day at the
Kershaw County Fair.,
This pilgrimage of the school chil- J
dren to the fair has come to be as j
much an institution as the Fair it-!
self, and the fathers, mothers, friends
and other interested onlookers are
drawn to Camden and the Fair on
that day because they are here. It.
does one's heart good to see, these]
happy, smiling children a-s they march
down the street in perfect step and I
line and as they are turned free to |
roam about the fair grounds. For
most of them, it is a very happy
occasion?one that they look forward
to from year to year; and besides
giving the children thus day of excitement,
pleasure and entertainment, it
gives the citizens of Camden and the
visitors to the fair an opportunity to
see something of what is being accomplished
in the -schools of our
county. Out talented and efficient
superintendent of education, Mrs.
Kathleen B. Watts, the superintendents
and faculties of the schools
throughout the county aro to be congratulated
upon the magnificent showing
the schools are making Tf tinyone
inclined to be critical would only
stop to think of the happiness these
occasions bring to the school children,
how the different schools vie with
each other to make the better showing,
the information the young folks
get here and the friends among the
other school children they are able:
to gain by reason of being brought
together in this manner, he would
readily conclude that the institution
is worthwhile.
The program of the Nazi t^vernment
of Germany to take over the
control of Protestant church affairs
now looks to be headed for failuro, as
Dr. August Jaeger, hard fisted second
in command of the reichbishop, I)r.
Ludwig Mueller, has resigned as commissioner
of Protestant churches.
DON'T WORKY ABOUT THE FARMER'S
FUTURE
' There is much worry about th?
American farmer. Many believa that
what seem* to be his increasing dependence
on governtaental relief and
aid, will weaken his traditional qualities
of self-reliance and honest individualism.
A percentage of farmers is willing
to depend upon political relief measuresr?but
that percentage is very
small. In alt sections of the country,
groups of farmers have banded together
to fight their own Rattle* and
win their own victories. They regard
relief as being porely temporary?a
lift over a particularly bad place in
the economic rofd. They haye no intention
of depending upon it for their
future welfare....
n These farmers constitute the memberships
of genuine business organisations,
which, through expert and
experienced management, are applying
prfoven business methods to farm
problems. The question of supply
and demand, of production and marketing
methods, of foreign markets,
or tariff wails and embargoes?in
brief, everything that affects the farmer?engage
their attention, They
work with these problems, not for a
day or a week or a year, or until
another political party comes into
power, but continuously, permanently.
They are her^, to stay.
Those who have watched the co-ops
grow and develop, have little to fear
for the future of the progressive
American farmer.?Exchange.
EXPERT .
A man visited a farm.
"What's that?" he asked.
"That's wheat," said the farmer
"What's that?,' asked the man.
"That's corn," said the farmer.
"What's that?" asked the man.
"That's barley," said the farmer.
And what is your business?"
"I'r?. a federal crop expert," replied
the man.
VOTERS OF THE STATE
Help Kershaw Public Schools in the
Election Tuesday
To the Voters of South Carolina:
Fight proposed amendments to the
state constitution will be submitted
for your adoption in the election to
be held next Tuesday, November G.
You are requested to note particularly
and carefully Amendment No.
H, which reads as follows:
NO. 8
KERSHAW AND LANCASTER
COUNTIES
A Joint Resolution to Amend
Article X, Section 5, Constitution
of 1895, Relating to the
Bonded Indebtedness of School
District No. 40 in Kershaw and
Lancaster Counties.
This amendment applies to School
District No. 40, situate jointly in
Kershaw and Lancaster counties, and
embraces the town of Xershaw.
The district had the misfortune
last March to lose one of its grammar
schools by fire, which was only
partly insured in the State Sinking
Fund, which sum is totally inadequate
to erect a new building. Only
eight years ago, the high school
building was destroyed by fire and it
was necessary to supplement the
amount of insurance by the issue of
bonds to the constitutional limit to
replace that building. The school district
is now without other means of
replacing this latest lost building and
its housing facilities for the accommodation
of the pupils are totally inadequate.
For that reason only, appeal is
made to the voters to vote in favor
of Amendment No. 8 in order that
the district may have constitutional
authority to vote the additional bonds
to obtain the necessary funds to supplement
the amount of the insurance
to enable them to erect n new grammar
school building.
Your assistance in this dire emergency
will be greatly appreciated.

ftfotW Crab Guard* Her ' I !
Eg?s U?lU fhay Hatch
A crab which reaches maturity Is a
fortunate creature. Its mother prob- i
ably laid fire thousand eggs, and of
these perhaps lea* than half a dozen
survive to grow up. notea a writer In
Tit-Bits Magazine.
Bgga laid by the mother are carried
about until they hatch, and are about
the size of the head of a email pin.1
Beneath the crab's body, or that part
commonly known aa the tall, are feath*
er-llke appendages. The egge are at*
Inched to these by One threads* and
are held securely. If attacked, the
mother will tight furiously to protect
her treasures, \yhen newly (aid the
eggs are a bright orange color, bet
soon become darker, until they apPear
a dull brown. This change of
color is brought ebout hy ths development
of the creature inside, for the
ectusl shells are transparent The
moat Important task of the baby crab
Is to protect ltself/%nd so Nature pro*
Ides It with a pair of powerful eyes,*'
and It Is these which show through the
sheila
When the eggs burst open, each tiny
crab falls to the sea bottom. They
are Just about the lume sice as the
e*g with a Buy tail attached. Their
first movements are small Jerky acthey
rise an Inch or so, wriggle
about for a moment, then drop back
again. A day later they have grown,
and are clothed In a thin horny coat,
something like the outer sklu of a
shrimp.

Wise Men of Old Greece /
Called tke "Seven Sages*'
The seven wise men of ancient
Greece Included:
Solon of Athens, who lived from !
About 338 to 639 B. C.. whose motto
was, "Know thyself."
Chllo of Sparta, who died about 697
B. C., who said, "Consider the end."
Thales of Miletus, who died about
B. C.. who said, "Who hateth
suretyship Is sure."
Bias of Prlene, who lived about the
Sixth century B. C., who maintained
that "Most men are bad."
Cleobuius of Llndos, who died about
56* B. C., who believed in "The Golden
mean,' or "Avoid extremes."
Pittacu8 of Mltylenc, who died about
570 B. C., admonished the world to
"Seize time by the forelock."
I'erflnnder of Corinth, died 685 B. C..'
left this, probably to the present era,
"Nothing Is Impossible to Industry."
Troy Sixth City on Site
Digging Into the desert sands of
Asia Minor an expedition from the
Lnherslty of Cincinnati discovered
some Interesting facts about ancient
Troy and Its site, says Pathfinder Magazlne.
This city. Immortalized by
Homer, was built on a spot which has
seen the rise and the fall of eight other
cities. The first to grow on this
historic ground ceased to exist about
8,000 years ago and the last to flourish
there had Its untimely end about
500 y6arg after the death of Christ
Digging through successive layers of
debris and unearthing tons of pottery
of different dates the archeolbglsts established
Troy as being sixth of ths
nlns cities to occupy ths Ill-fated spot
What We Eat
Practically every living thing Is
nsed as food by somebody. Ths
known exceptions are a few poisonous
species of plants and animals,
notes s writer In the Missouri Farmer.
What in Affrejrtirdc;! vuv yari or ^
world, may be a great delicacy In another^
part Grasshoppers are poisoned
and murdered by the millions In
our country, and none thinks of eating
them, while In Calcutta they are
served In every restaurant The
Arabs grind then, and use the flour'
for baking pancakes. Other tropical
people roast them and eat them with
butter and salt much as we do parched
corn. The Arabs also like crl?&$f?
served In the same way.
V
Circus Feats Are Ancient
Many of the circus and vaudeville
feats which are performed today were
performed In the circuses and amphitheaters
which drew large audiences
5,000 years ago. Frescoes were uncovered
In Crete by an eminent archeologist,
which represent a charging
bull about to toss a girl poised on its
horns, while another girl lg standing
behind apparently waiting to catch
her. A man Is represented turning
somersaults on the bull's back. All
of these performers are dressed In costumes
which very much resemble those
worn by modern bare-back riders.
Throo Tribes of Cacti
The cacti comprise three tribes, each
of which has several subdivisions: (1)
The common opuntlas, which grow in
great profusion In most sections that
have less than ten Inches of rainfall,
eqd which are abundant In western
United States; (2) the cereae to which
belong the night-blooming cereus. the
giant cactus of Arizona and a number
of others; (3) the perlskeae, which
are confined almost entirely to the
tropics.
Child's Progress ia Speech
Once begun, a child's progress In
speech la almost phenomenal. At two
