Kjay and Saturday, November 8 and
ja in to 11 n m. First time ever
E*. Weighing sixty-eight tons and
Enuring more than flfty-flve feet
Eo, it s massive head to the power|tail,
the whale presents a specE?
of unusual interest.
Kn a perfect state of preservation,
Eomplishcd by expert embalraers,
E whale is revealed as one of the
Kst specimens of the finback vaE'
ever captured.
Khe tour of the whale, according
Etepons, has caused a revival of
Emulation concerning many of the
E<s about whales which have thus
Er baffled scientific inquiry.
Although the whale is an air breathE.
he can dive a mile deep and re^Ein
there for an hour at a time withE
coining up for another huge lungK||.
How he does this and how he

keeping with it's policy of preeducational
features the Whaling
Company has purchased Lone
Bftar, the world's largest cow. It tfc
Bike. stands 6 foot, 2 inches high and
Bteighs 2.*10 pounds. This is great
news for all boys and girls that are
members of 4-H clubs, or in fact anylone
interested in dairy or farm life.
Just think of a milk cow over 6 foot
Ihigh. It is really a living, walking,
laou/jtain of beef. It will be seen
Inly from now on, with the Big Whale
Brine Exhibit, as a special added
Hature. Prof. W. E. Alexander's
Emous educated trained Fleas are alBo
shown on this same big Marine
Bihtbitlon. They and the largest cow
Hi the world, were featured at the

Many Acres Soon.
To Be Paid For
Montgomery, Ala., Oct. 29.?Almost
100,000 acres of Chesterfield and Kershaw
county lands, most of It unprofitable
to present owners, soon will
be acquired by the Resettlement Administration
for the Sandhills project,
it was announced Saturday by
W. A. Hart ma 11, director of the Laud
Utilization Division in Region Five,
embracing South Carolina, Alabuma,
Florida and Georgia.
The tract which will cost the federal
government about $470,000, averaging
about $4.70 an acre, will be
developed as a land use adjustment
demonstration project involving reforestation,
game and fish preservation,
and creation. This is the largest
of four projects in South Carolina
on which approval of purchase has
bden announced. The other projects
are Poinsett Forest, in Sumter county,
Clemson College, in Anderson,
Pickens and Oconee counties, and
Kings Mountain in Cherokee and
York counties.
More than 1,500 families now live
on the area. Workers in these families
will be employed, Mr. Hartman
said, in the development and maintenance
of the projects. Other families
will be helped to resettle on productive
land, if that is their choice,
as near as possible to their present
homes.
"Every acre of land wn shall buy,"
Mr. Hartman said, "was offered for
sale voluntarily by the owners. If
our plans had contemplated larger
tracts and our appropriation had permitted,
we could have taken over
thousands of acres in addition to
those now approved for purchase."
Checks to pay for the land will not
be sent out softn, Mr. Hartman pointed
out, because of time needed to
clear titles before transfers can be
made.
A BEAUTIFUL PRAYER
"The traveler, who, in the early
history of America, found lodging for
a night in a settler's home far out
on the frontiers, had his misgivings
about his host and hostess until he
heard his host reading the Bible and
praying for the stranger who slept
In the loft above. Up in Nashville I
the other day, we were having some
work done in a dry cleaner's estab- I
llshment. We had our misgivings 1
about the place and the proprietor un- I
til we discovered a little prayer hanging
on the wall which so Impressed
us that we wish to pass it on to oth- I
ers. It is as follows:
"O God, help us to seek Thee, and
to find" Thee In the common things
of our every-day life. Grant that our
work be well done 6hd our duty loyal- I
ly fulfilled. When we become tired
and lose heart, bring us apart into a
quiet place, where we can rest awhile,
and grant us such communion with
Thee and fellowship one with another
as shall send us back with freshness
and hope, through Jesus Christ our
Lord. ,
"We had no further misgivings. The I
negro porter who attended to our I
needs, the cashier and the entire I
premises became inviting and rest- I
fuL Through this little window of I
prayer, we got our best Impression
of Nashville. ;
"The proprietor of this place has I
set a fine example for other establishments
patronized by the general
Publi?.__The_reLWere no salacious mag- I
azines in the booth, no empty beer J
or whiskey bottle, no cards and no I
unsavory pictures. Naturally we left J
the place with a high appreciation of I
the service rendered us and the pro-1
prietor who knows how to make one
aware of God."?The Christian Index. I
All prayer is beautiful when It is I
uttered in sincerity and huipbleness
bf heart.
This would be a finer, better world I
if more of us would pause for prayer. 1
This would be a greater nation if I
mothers and fathers would teach their I
children "to seek Thee, and to find I
Thee In the common things of our I
every-day life." Work would be "well I
done and our duty fulfilled."?Ex- 1

Sails Once Used

a South Carolina railroad.
In his syndicated newspaper feature.
"Strange Ah It May Seem," John
Hix, native of South Carolina and noted
cartoonist, recently pointed out
thai "sailears capable of 80 to 40
tnileH an hour were once liued on the
Kuiihuh Pacific Kallroed."
Ah an experiment/ the heme device
WUH used iu South Carolina in 1830,
long before the Kansas Pacific wan
built. /
When the South Caroliua Haiiroad
wuh orguuixivd, several experiments j
with different motive powers were,
tried, accordliiK to Dr. 8 M. Derrick,
professor of ecuuomics iu the Uni
verslty of South Carolina. In his
hook, "Hlbtory of the South Caroliua
Ituilro&d," appears the following; account
from the Charleston Courier: j
^"A sail was Bet ou the car on our
railroad yesterday afternoon in the
presence of a large concourse of spectators.
Fiftepn gentlemen got on
hoard and (lew off at the rate of 12
to 16 miles an hour. The wind would
drive tile car either way with equal
speed."
"While the experiment wan a novel
one, it is obvious thul such povypr
was not HoriouHly considered by tho
directors," Doctor Derrick observes.

How Calotabs Help Nature
To Throw Off a Bad Cold
Million* have found In Calotabs a I
most valuable aid In the treatment'
of colds. They take one or two tablets
the first night and repeat the I
i third or fifth night If needed.
How do Calotabs help Nature
throw ofT a oold? First, Calotabs Is
?one of the most thorough and dependable
of all Intestinal ellmlnants
thus cleansing the Intestinal tract of
the germ-laden mucus and toxincs,
Second, Oalot&ba are diuretic to the
kidneys, promoting the elimination
of cold poisons from the system. Thus
Calotabs serve the double purpose of
a purgative and diuretic, both of
which are needed In the treatment
or oolds.
Calotabs are quite economical;
only twenty-Ave cents for the family
paraage, ten cents for the trial
package, (Adv.)
