The order from Washington re-|
quiring a South Carolina cotton mill
to re-employ four former workers
who were active union members dur w
'
ing the recent strike is far-reaching,
and is not likely to be complied with
by the mill at Clinton, or others that
may soon have similar orders directed
to them until there's a show-down. A
man may be efficient as a worker, but
be inclined to stir up trouble, and
to that degree be undesirable as an
employee. 'No business concern could
be blamed under such conditions for
not wanting to re-employ former
workers. Before the matter is adltled
one way or the other, it is not unlikely
that tt will be passed upon by
the Supreme Court of the land.?

ASK 2,000 "BABIES"
TO GOLDEN WEDDING
Doctor* Celebrate Anniversary
in Unique Way.
Washington.?When I>r. Daniel ||.
Kre## and I>r. Lauretta Kress began
to discuss the guest Hat for the reeeptlon
In observance of their gulden wedding
anniversary, Doctor Uuretta wu*
firm on one point.
"All my Imbles must be Invited," she
announced.
"What?" said Doctor Daniel. "The
whole .<1.571 ?"
"At legst as many us I can find." ratified
the wife. ~
So it came about that invitations to
the reception went to more than 2,000
persons whom Doctor Lauretta, as obstetrician,
had ushered Into this old
world during a career of forty years.
They accepted. 500 of them. One
was Mrs. Cecil Ross of Bloomfleld, N.
J., the oldest of Doctor Lauretta's
"babies," She is thirty-nine. The
youngest couldn't come. He Is the sou
Of Mr. and Mrs. 8. N. FaJrchild of
Washington, and the grny-halred doctor
spanked the breath Into him only
'.the duy before.
Through the spacious residence of
the Doctors Kress pressed the throng.
There were mature men and women, j
lanky youths, debutantes. Uttle girls
shedding their first teeth, smaller tod- i
dlers hanging to their mothers' skirts,
and quite a number who hadu't yet
learned to walk.
"I remember them all," said the doctor.
"But, goodness, how some of J
them have changed since I fjL^st knew
them. And wasn't It wonderful that '
the reception wasn't Interrupted by
a call to take care of another eligible
for the guest list" '!
Dr. Daniel Kress, who tp seventyone,
Is a specialist In diseases of the
stomach. He asserted that he and his
wife, who Is seventy, were never busier I
In their lives and Intended to keep on j
practicing.
The couple had been married nearly
ten years, and had two children of
their own before they were graduated
In medicine st the University of Michigan
in 1894.
Black Widow Spiders
Are New Menace in West
Sacramento, Calif.?Reports of extraordinarily
large numbers of venomous
black widow spiders have resulted
in public health departments
throughout the West issuing warnings
to be on the alert.
Numerous cases of black widow spider
bites have been reported and a few
deaths have occurred. A mild winter
and dry weather were conducive to
development of the poisonous species.
The black widow, so named because
the female of the species devours her
mate, has a large, round, shiny black
body resembling a shoe button. The
long, sprawling legs may spread two
Indies.
The most distinguishing mark is a
red spot, somewhat in the shape of
an hour glass, on the under si da Of
the body.
Poisons are not effective in exterminating
the pesL but spraying crude
oil, ftr creosote,1 fnto ctneks nnd crevices
is considered a helpful control
procedure.
When u person is bitten by a black
widow, acute pain develops almost Im- j
mediately in the region of the bite
and Bprends to other parts of the body. !
Accompanying the pain there may be
muscular contraction, difficult breath- ^
Ing, \cold perspiration, nausea and an
extreme rigidity of the abdomen.
Fatalities are not common, but when
death -ooes occur It usually cornea
swiftly?Avlthin 82, hours after the bite.

CORN CHAMPION ^
Pictured above is B. B. Mathlii.
Jr., of Sumter, S. C? who won tb?
State 4-H Corn Contest sponsored
by The Agricultural Development
Bureau of The Barrett Company.
His award was a trip to the 4-H
Congress In Chicago.
Here, in his own words, is the
story of how this young farmer ob*
tainud the remarkably high yield
of 124.8 bu. of corn on an acre:
' "This year 1 flushed my land in
the early part of February, and let
it stand for about a month. A week
before I planted my corn, I cut the
land over again with a disk-harrow
This left the land bare of weeds
and cotton stalks. \.
"I decided to close my rows to
four feet apart, and my stalks to
six or eight Inches. 1 then laid my
rows off with a two-horse plow, and
planted my corn seven inches in
the drill.
"When my corn came up and was
about knee high, I put 200 pounds
of Arcadian, the American nitrate
of soda to it. 1 plowed it about
once a week until it got about 4
feet high. I then put 800 pounds
more of Arcadian soda to it. When
If was ready to lay by, I put 200
pounds more of Arcadian to it, and
layod it by with a 24-in. sweep."

nine miles east of Camden, in Kershaw

of rye whisky, 2,000 gallons of
mash and captured three men engaged
in tho operation of the stills. The
prisoners were lodged in the Riohland

The officers went into Kershaw
' county early yesterday morning intending
to raid another still, the
whereabouts of which had been spotted.
Their plans failed to develo<pe,
however, and that raid was abandoned.
Upon quitting the ROene of the
still they had intended to raid the
men traveled to the above vicinity
and there found the two stills of 100
gallons capacity each in full operation
side by side, according to one of
the officers.?Wednesday's Columbia

Curiosity
And now we hear about the street
car motorman who, after clanging his
bell irately behind an obstinate coal
truck for two blocks, finally managed
to get up alongside the driver, leaned
out his -window, and just looked. The
truck driver brazenly asked, "Well?"
Whereupon the motorman said, "I
know what you are. I just want to
see what you look like."
