The other night at the Halle mines I
they had a formal pouring to which
officials of the company and guests'
from both Carolluas, including reprenontatlves
of Camden's polo playing

not the tlrst pouring, however, for the
$11.:',00 brick obtained that night
brought the total recovered from the
mines operations since last summer
to $118,000.
The pouring at the Hullo mines was
a repetition of the pouring about a
month ago at the Oapps mine live
miles northwest of Charlotte, which
was attended by a large group of Canadian
officials and stockholders of
the company operating the mine.
The Hallo mines, which were first
worked more than a hundred years
ago and Intermittent operators during
that time have yielded about $4,500,000
in gold, are different from the
Capps mine in that they are deposit
mines rather than vein mines. They
are worked from the surface, while
| the Capps mine la worked underground.
a costlier method of operations.
The Halle mines own about 4
square miles of property and already
enough gold-bearing ore has been discovered
to insure profitable operations
for the next fifty years, Harlan
H. Brodt, managing englnerr, revealed
at the pouring Wednesday night.
Ore being taken out of the Halle
mines is worth about $ "> a ton, but
since the operations are not as expensive
as those of the Capps mine,
where the ore is worth about $10 a
ton, the mining is a profitable venture
and operations now are producing
about $-2,500 worth of gold a month.
Contemplated increase in production,
which will be brought about by in j
creasing the plant facilities, should i
shortly bring normal production to

very rich ore, and if the deposit is
extensive, the mine may shortly come
to be recognized as one of the great
gold mines of the continent It is
now regarded as the biggest in in

engineer declared
Operations at the old Haile ininwere
conducted by the Confederate
forces during the Civil war, but the

one of the main features of the
Fourth Annual Music Festival
To mention the channels through
which this gifted, glamorous, person
able star has delighted the entire
world with her music and histrionic
talent is sufficient to show her vast
popularity.
As "Mimi" in Puccini's "La Bohome,"
at the Metropolitan Opera; as
the star In a number of motion picture
productions, and as a delightful
contributor to some of the best radio
musical programs, her fame has become
world-wide.
Personal decorations have been given
her by King Gustav, of Sweden;
King Haakon, of Norway, and King

Protect Children
Against Disease
Children are the joy of parents, the
hope of the nation. For them every
citizen should feel some responsibility.
Nine million children under fifteen
years of age In the Cnited States
| are infected with the germs of tuberculosis.
In Kershaw county children are exposed
to danger of infection every
Lime they are thrown in contact with
persons ill with the disease under
certain conditions Some of these
sources of infection are those who>e
cases have been diagnosed as tuberculosis,
but continue to be careless even
though instruction hait been given.
Other sources of infection are cases
that have not yet been diagnosed because
they have not become sick
enough to think it is necessary to
seek medical attention
Ah long as there is In any community
a diagnosed case that continues
to be careless or an undiagnosed case
that is spreading tuberculosis germs,
there is danger especially to children
and young people.
Children may be protected by these
safeguards?tuberculin tests, x-rays,
clinicsi nursing service The Kershaw
County Tuberculosis association is
now making arrangements for re-examination
of children who have been
exposed to tuberculosis Tuberculin
tests are being made in the schools
In an effort to locate other < hildren
who may have been exposed to this
disease which caused more deaths
than any other disease among young
person.-* between the av- of fifteen i
and twenty five years
Leading citizens in every community
of Kershaw county can render invaluable
service to their own children
and those in other families by en
couraging teen age school children to
take a tuberculin test and by urging
persons with symptoms of tuberculosis
to seek a thorough examination.
The Kershaw County Tuberculosis
association provides the service of a
nurse, who works in cooperation with
the county health department In the
Interest of tuberculosis control.
