LEGISLATURE AND HIGHWAY
After a most exciting and difficult
session Friday the house by an overwhelming
vote pn8Bed the reorganization
bill for the state highway department.
This provides for removing
the department entirely away
from the governor and makes the
fourteen members elective by the legislative
delegations from their respective
highway districts. The effort to
provide for elections by the people did
not gain much favor In the house,
nor will it gain as much favor in the
senate. There was only one close
vote In the house on the many amendments
offered and that was an amendment
to place the election of the chief
highway commissioner In the primary
election. This was defeated by only
ono vote of those voting. The chances
are that Governor Johnston will veto
the measure when tt reaches him, and
it is hardly probable that a sufficient
vote will be had to override the veto
in tin- house. If not. the session may
etui with no highway legislation having
been enacted. It will, then, become
an issue in the elections this
summer. It may or may not change
the complexion of the membership.
The chances are that little difference
in sentiment will result from the elections.
Thore has been n clearly marked
drift away from the position of
the governor in many sections of the
state. The people do not approve of
the methods used. They feel that
the govornor was the recipient of
some very poor advice, and that it
was a mistake for him to have called
out the militia. The courts have been
unanimous in their decisions against
him, and this is telling in the sentfnOnt
back home.
At any rate there will hardly be
any drastic changes in the highway
situation at this session. It is an interesting
fight, and one which is being
waged carefully and watched
closely?Waltorboro Press and Standard.
A curious mlxup has developed in
the building of post office buildings,
one at San Mateo, and the other at
If&dera, Cal. The latter city was to
have a 150,000 building aud San Mateo's
building was to have cost $70,000.
After the buildings were completed
tt hkfc been found that Madera,
a smaller town than San Mateo, has
the larger and more expensive of the
two buildings. The contractor declares
the plans came out from Washington
And that he built according to
specifications in the two towns.

Poor Nutrition
Favors Tuberculosis
la recent yearn much has been
written and a great deal said regarding
a balanced diet. The Importance
and advantagea of the well balanced
diet are many as la manifested not
only by medical research but also by
practical experience. It 1? not difficult
to observe which individual has
and which one has not received a
proper diet. A well nourished Individual
demonstrates the fact by general
appearance, mental alertness and
physical activity. To the casual observer
a person may be termed indolent,
lazy, or slovenly, yet, In almost
every instance there la an underlying
cause, most probably undernourishtneut.
The human body Is so constructed
that each tissue cell is a
highly specialized organ which selects
Its ungessary food from the body
fluids, wfytn the required food ele- j
ineut Is present the vitality and resisting
power of these tissues against
Infectious diseases are maintained at
the proper level.
Therefore, the system must he supplied
with these food elements by tho
intake of proper food in our diet. This
diet would necessarily contain the
usual component parts of the body,
which are: ^ minerals, proteins, carbohydrates,
futs and water. Cortain
articles of food contain more than
one of these required ingredients, yet,
it is essential that a variety of food
bo used in order to include all necessary
food elements or vitamins.
Foods rich in minerals and proteins,
ure: milk, eggs, cheese, cereals
(grains), beans, peas, fruits, molasses
and lean meat; green leafy and
root vegetables; cabohydrates and
fats, such as, milk, grains (breads of
different kinds) potatoes, sweet and
Irish, rice, macaroni, peas, beans,
fruits, cream, buttor, bacon and peanuts.
Use water Internally, external-!
ly and eternally.
A human body maintained by the
above articles of food will be able to
| resist the invasion of many, If not
all, infectious diseases. There has
been a constant fear that tuberculosis
will show a decided increase following
tho period of economic depression
(hard times), however, should
each person be on guard concerning
his diet and physical welfare this fear
could be unfounded.
Future Farmers Hold Meeting
The Camden Future Farmers held
the monthly meeting March 4, In tho
high school building. The meeting
was called to order in usual procedure

procedure was discussed and
emphasis placed on following outline
procedure:
The securing of lespedeza seed for
soil erosion, pastures, and hay was
discussed. Enough seed was secured
for 50 acres. Twenty-two boys added
lespedeza production to their farm
program. A complete supervised practice
farm program for every member.
March 20 was the date set for the
Father and Son Banquet. Cooperative
ordering of baby chicks was decided
upon by the chapter. Judging from
the interest and enthusiasm of the
( lass the Future Farmers will put
over a real program of work for this
y.eur. The new members having met
certain qualifications were recommended
for the Green Hand Degree.

Fire Damages Lumber Plant
Fire damage estimated at 1100,000
was caused early this morning at the
D. \V. Alderman and Sons Company
plant at Alcolu, S. C. Two of the local
tire trucks were called to the
scene shortly before 5 o'clock.
ThA fire is said to have started
about 4:30 this morning and a total
of 7.000,000 feet of lumber and a lumber
shed were destroyed. The loss Is
estimated at * 100,000. The fire was
prevented from spreading by quick
work of the local flro company plus
succor from Manning - and Sumter
companies.?Tuesday's . Sumter Herald.

YOU CANT GET AWAY WITH IT
Fake accident racketeers are an In*
aidloua threat to every honest business
and every individual. Fortunately,
agencies of Justice are bringing
them to book and can continue to
do so with your help The following
is one of a series of articles deacrlh*
Ing some of the tricks of th?T racketeers?showing
that Iheao tricks 4o
not work against organised business.
Watch out for them yourself; .
George C. Blas ts remembered by
those whose Job It Is to expose fraudulent
accident claims because he was
clever and becguse he was so hard to
catch. George had two dozen surname
aliases but invariably these
were preceded by "George C", a fact
that helped considerably In checking
up on his activities.
It Is not difficult to find-something
to trip on In a department store, as
George C. did, a hole In a rug, a ba
nana peel, a shoe salesman's stool, a
toy.
George C.'s face would contort In
<igony us he dangled his swollen
wrist. A doctor would exumine,?tbo
wrist, suy it seemed broken. When
ho suggested ah X-ray wus necessary,
George C. would say he was leaving
lowu immediately and that his family
physician would take care of him. He
would add he was going to sue the
store. The manager, anxious to close
the matter and avoid publicity, would
settle on the spot for a substantial
sum. The Injured George C. would be
most amenable to reason, pocket the
money and go his way. This happened
in many cities In the East, South
and Middle West.
Finally, the authorities, With 'the
aid of the relentless undercover work
of the Index Bureau System main*,
talned by the National Bureau of Casualty
and Surety Underwriters, found
his trail. There were, it appeared, a
suspiciously large number of 'left
wrists being broken in places like department
stores by men whose name
began with George C., all answering
to the same description.
George C., breaking that wrist with
monotonous regularity, was about two
steps alidad of Ills pursuers. An alurm
went out that he was heading
South again. In Charlotte, North Carolina,
a description of him was sent
to all public buildings. Sure enough,
in a few days, a man named George
C. Blank fell In the foyer of a Charlotte
hotel and Injured his wrist. They
had only to ascertain that there was
a scar on the back of his neck, and
they knew they had their man.
The wrist, he admitted, had been
broken years before when he fell
from a horse. Since then, he had
been able to snap It out of position
at will. The swelling he produced by
applying a tourniquet to his forearm
the morning he planned a "flop."
George C. was sentenced to seven
years in prison, and added his voice
to the chorus of those who now admit
"You can't get away with It."
MAKING SUNDAY WORTHWHILE
How many of us go to church, on.
the Sabbath day? Let's think more
about this question and resolve to not
let another Sabbath pass without attending
the preaching services at
some church. God gave his son Jesus
to suffer and die on the cross for us,
and also gave us the Sabbath day, as
a day of rest and gladness and worship.
But instead of going to the
Lord's house on Sunday, too many of
us stay at home, read novels, go visit-1
ing, and take pleasure rides perhaps,
when it is our duty to our Lord to be
found in our places at church. Let's
be more faithful. Some folks say
they stay away because they have no
money to give, but God understands
that. We can give Him our time and
talents, and in this way, show our
lave for our Saviour, our church and
our pastor.
It makes the pastor happy to see
the church full of folks on Sunday
and God is pleased too.
Everybody goes to town on Saturday
afternoon. Its hard to find a
parking place, but it's not hard to
And empty seats at the preaching service
on Sunday.
I am afraid we fail to realize what
the Sabbath should really mean to
us. Our Lord is coming back some
day. If he should come on the Sabbath
day, I wonder how many he
would find at the church services. Its
terrible to think about, and yet, Its
true. ~
I am hoping and praying that every
one who reads this will be found attending
preaching at some church
next Sunday. Let's be faithful to our
Creator and Lord.
Mrs. Cora Lee Horton.
