I Judged that Bhe was conversing with a girl friend on the other side of town. This is about what the lady on our end of the line said: "Hello, guess who this is! Uh-huh. That's right. xafre. Dunnon; ain't heard no more. Yea. Oh-yeah! Sort of a pink. Wonder why. - . ' We left too. No, by myself. Sick. Red looks better. V-shaped neck. Blue, but green's OK by me. Don't say.

And the balance of the trouble Is somebody trying to talk to me out of the window or down In a Jog or with his month foil of mush or something.

FARMER'8 DOLLAR BUY8 M08T 8INCE WORLD WAR DAY8 The outlook for agriculture next year seems favorable, says W. C. Mc* Carley, county farm agent, pointing out a 10 per cent Increase In industrial production in prospect, and improved industrial conditions reported from some of the important foreign cduntries which import farm products from the United States. Those improvements here and abroad indicate an increased demand for farm products, he states. The buying power of the net income of farmers as a group is the highest in seventeen years, Mr. McCarley asserts on authority of C. W. Kitchen, assistant chief of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Though there have been years during that time when farm income was higher than now, the economist explained that things farmers buy also were' higher, so that the buying power of farm income was less than it Is now. The cash Income from farm marketings and government payments this year will total about $7,800,000,000, which is a gain of about 10 per cent over 1985, and a gain of more than 80 per cent since the low point of the depression In 1982. "There have been marked economic gains in other directions," Mr. Kitchen said, "a reduction In farm mortgage d.ebt with the lowest Interest rates on long-term loans in our history, a riBe of about 12 per cent in farm real estate valueB since the depression low, fewer foreclosures, and more voluntary transfers of farm real estate. The value of all farm land and buildings bas risen from less than 21 billions in 1988 to more than 54 billions this year." The senate civil liberties committee has announced public hearings, beginning January 11, into labor conditions of the General Motors company plants following charges of labor espionage, strike breaking and illegal interference with union activities.

I,,. ii i j New Year 1^;: Cavalier ft***M I .i i by Helen Gaisford Waterman ^ . ? -? ? - 1 FENTON DUMONT was bored with the party. All right welcoming in the New Year so smugly for people like these?but he was an adventurer, a cavalier, and the formal drawing room, the lovely ladies so ready to smile upon , him, the classical music, the slow, pompous talk of the men suffocated ' him. He stepped to the balcony. It had stopped snowing. In another hour the year would be dead, j A grand year. But another would > be beginning. He slipped over the i balustrade, wound his leg around a pillar^ and slid down to meet it. I To the east, far away, the year j was already new, and so he set ! off in that direction. He was almost half way across ! the bridge before he noticed the ! girl, but then he strode quickly to i her side. "Please don't," he said gently. She started. "I should only have to jump in after you, and can't you imagine, how cold I'd ,be?" he ended, and shivered with clown-like intensity. "I might even [ catch my death," he continued lightly, but the girl looked back to the riVer, and he realized his error. "You may want to die," he ' said earnestly, "but I don't. Please!" ; "Then leave me be," she answered. Her voice was soft, mui sical, but passionately desperate. He gathered her in his arms and . kissed her. She struggled fiercely. * He kissed her again, and again, ( pinning her arms .to her sides with "Her Voice Was Soft and Musical, Hut Passionately Desperate. : his strong clasp. And suddenly she | went limp in his arms, and cried against his shoulder. He took off his overcoat and wrapped it around ' her; for she was shivering. "Why did you come off without your coat ; and hat?" he chided, and stroked her soft hair. Behind him, bells and whistles proclaimed another year. "Happy i New Year, lassie," he.said gayly. She dried hqr eyes. "I'm being a ' fool," she apologized. 1 "Not at all," he answered, gallantly. "Methinks I behold a res taurant across the bridge. How \ about some coffee?" j She let him lead her, and he i found a corner table. When their i order had been placed, he turned to 1 her. "Why should you love a man 'like that?" ! She looked up quickly, studying him. "How did you know?" i "Why else should a lovely girl like you be spending New Year's eve that way? You shoula be dancing?" She smiled. "I don't know. 11 seemed terribly important half an ' hour ago. But I'm all right now It doesn't matter any more " "Off with the old," he quoted, "on with the new. This is the sea soi^. for lovers as well as years ' The old is off?" ; "Yes." > He took her haqd. "The new? | would like very much?to be on/' ' His gaze caught and held hers : "May I take you home now?" She nodded her thanks. Outside 1 it was snowing again, but they : scarcely noticed. At her door, h? ikissed her, and this time she did ' not resist. "On with the new," _?she murmured gently. ("That's O.K. this time," he answered, "but I won't let i happcs next New Year's."

THE BUSINE88 OF HUNTING I'p Kaat, in Now Jersey, there are j fourteen hunters for each square mile. ' lu South Carolina a square mile c an claim only two i^ul a hulf hunters. In Pennsylvania woodsmen wear | scarlet shirts and headgear to keep from being shot in the thickly populated woods, whlld in South Carolina we are lucky not to get lost. Hare indeed is tho time when sportsmen have to become altruistic and scatter feed to keep game from starving In a country locked tight by snow und ice. Nearly u hundred thousand hunters will pursue all munner of guino iiPthis state between now and March 1st, and they will Jlnd plenty to Bhoot. messed with a moderate climate, conducive to rapid propagation as well us year-round hunting, the quantity of game persists, despite the fact that it is still legal to shoot a bobwhite with an automatic. Those thousands of hunters will pay in licenses between 125 and 150 thousund dollars, or average about $1.75 each. The cost of the county hunting license is $1, the state-wide license $3, and the non-resident license is >15, exclusive of a small commission to the Issuing ugent. l-ast season more than fifty-eight thousand county licenses were issued, with the following counties leading, in order: Spartanburg, Greenville, Laurens, Anderson, (tho counties that haven't the game buy the licenses, don't they?), Orangeburg, Horry and Charleston. Richland led the others in issuing state-wide licenses with Greenville and Charleston following. The low country come into their own with the non-residents, Beaufort, Williamsburg, Jasper, Colleton, Charleston and Georgetown leading In the order named. South Carolina has 30.496 good squaro mlleB on land and the last census gave us 1,738,765 people. This puts fifty-seven, persons on each square mile, with every 23rd person a hunter?who bought a hunting license. The potential customers for the state's game resources are standing in line. It is a good business and a great sport. THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE MEET The general wildlife federation, to gether with the American Wildlife Institute will hold a Joint convention on the conservation of America's wildlife resources, in St. Louis next March. * Last winter conservation minded men and women from forty-eight states gathered in Washington at the call of President Roosevelt and whooped-it-up through a week's session that turned into an international gathering when Canada and Mexico sent delegates. Out of that convention grew the "general wildlife federation" purposed to unify all wildlife agencies; to develop a comprehensive program for advancements restoration, and conservation of wildlife; to publicise pertinent facts; to Join hands with other countries on this continent. The fiery and enthusiastic J. N. "Ding" Darling, conspicuous throughout the convention, was chosen "temporary president" and Carl D. Shoemaker, secretary of the special senate committee on conservation of wildlife resources, is acting as temporary secretary. Certainly both men are qualified and capable of putting the Job over. Following the adjournment of the Washington convention enthused followers went home and began spreading the gospel. During the ten months interim thirty-eight states. Including South Carolina say they are set to continue the fight. Now the powers-that-be call for the second gathering March 1, 2, 3, 4, in St. Louis, with the Jefferson Hotel as convention headquarters. PermaI nent officers will bo olectod, definite projects sponsored, concrete programs set In motion. The American Wildlifo Institute it ho old AlUWlc&u Game ? Association) will cooperate and hold their convention at the name time and place. Report# or this llrst yeur'k sue cgbboS will very probably determine just where and how the general wildlife federation will go from here. The Institute has us ith president former senator Frederic C. Wolcott, of Connecticut, and Henry P. 1>uv1h, long in the Horviee of the old AOA, In secretary, with their headquarters in Washington. in addition to "Ding" Darling and Carl Shoemaker, the Federation has a regional chairman in A. C. "Zan" Heyward, of Columbiu, who ulso rates as a member of the national board of directors. This region embraces West Virginia, Virginia, North and South Carolina. Zan and everyone else knows the region should bo rearranged with states with more in common united. In South Carolina we have M. S. "Mac" Boykin, of Sumter, as state chairman; Miss Claudia L. Phelps, Aiken, vice chairman; and West Jacocks, Columbia, secretary, , and groups in thirty-four counties in the state have "federated."
