COUNTY RANGER WARNS
AGAINST WARMING FIRES
[
?j A( (IiIh season of I ho your a nuin
* t ber of Itrcs are caused from warm*
I ' Iiik fires. Warming flies are made In
an effort to keep warm while having
. to wait along the side of a road.
'.Those fires are often left hutnlug,
whleh la, very dangerous an the wind
may blow' a sjiark out Into a field
i or woods and cauae a woods lire; the
1 fire may apread catching Kraaa on fire
' around the warming fire.
Home aehool rhlhlren In the rural
dlatrlcta often have to walk aome distance
from their homea to catch a
aehool hua and durltiK the time (hat
they are comitiK from their homea to
I tile road on which the aehool hunt truI
vela, become cold They will Vthen
| build themaelvea a fire In the ditch or
I on the shoulder of the road to net

fire for a lust warming and then run
for their hooka, forgetting all about |
' the fire aa they run to get In the hua
Thin also la done by men waiting for
trunaportatlon to their work.
If poaaible It la bust to avoid building
warming flreu becauae of the damage
thnt It dooa to clothing and the
danger of foreat Urea. However, there
are times when It la almoat imposslbio
for one to do without them. When
a person doea build one he should
first clear a spot to put It In so there
will be no danger of it spreading by
catching grass around it. lie careful
and do not have too largo a blazo us
sparks\ may bo blown away and set
a fire out of sight. The most Important
of all Is to be sure that the
wanning fire Is out before leaving It.
J This can be done easily by covering
j It up with dirt, says W. C. Perry, the
I county ranger.
The light sometimes appearing on
the masts and spars of ships, known
as "St. fcilmo's Fire." is caused by a
slow discharge of electricity.
What The Christmas
Seals Accomplish
A promlnenet physician r#cantly
said. "In rho daya of yesteryear, an.
Individual once labeled as tuberculous
remained tuberculous and actively ?o
until the grim reaper effected his do
parturo by the tuberculosis route. Today.
however, as a result of the loll
and steady progress of workers a
case submlttluK himself for curly
diagnosis and proper euro?all other
things equal?Is restored to health
ami returned to gainful employment.
I his change In the outlook of a
person unfortunate enough to contract
tuberculosis has come about
largely through research work that 1s
carried on almost continuously by the
Nutlonal Tuberculosis Association.
During 1^39 the National Association
will spend forty-one thousand Ave
hundred, nlnety-flve dollars studying
better ways to dlagnosd and treat the
disease. Even now at Yale Unlvoralty
there are two projects under
way. In one, Dr. H. J. Anderson is
conducting a study of the chemistry
i of the tubercle bacillus, the germ
I which is responsible for the spread of
the disease. The physiological as'
pects of the bacillus are being obj
served by Dr. Robert Thomas and his
co-workers.
As the yoar progresses, other assignments
In research will begin at
some Of tho leading universities. The
Ingredients of codllver oil that make
It valuable In treatment of tuberculosis
will be under the consideration of
l)r Horace Getz at the University of
Wluconsln.
Dr. Florence Sclbert, who was wintier
of the Trudeau medal in 1938,
will pursue research that will make
the tuberculin tost even more effective
than it is at present. Dr. Seibert
will carry on this work at the University
of Pennsylvania and at this
same Institution l>octor F. Maurice
MePhedran and Professor Charles
Weyl will be engaged In the Improvement
of X-ray technique.
All of those projects are .financed
with funds raised during the annual
Christmas Seal Sale. Each year every
Tuberculosis Association in. tb-9
United States pays the National five
per cent of their gross Christinas
Seal Sale. The gross amount of the
1V38 sale in Kershaw County to date
la $1,369.85 and each person who Is
represented in this total by a contribution
of any size is engaged in helping
to carry on these worthwhile projects
that are being sponsored by the
National Tuberculosis Association.
News has Just been received at the
Christmas Seal Sale office that the
Ant loch Home Demonstration Club
has voted to purchase a five dollar
bond and will mail a check to Miss
Charlotte Uoykln within the next few
days. Let's keep the total of our local
fund rising until it reaches at
least the. fifteen hundred dollar mark.
There are still about three hundred
letters that were mailed to citizens of
the county on which no report h.ibeen
received.
HIDDEN TAXES TAKE $321,204
IN RETAIL SALES, SURVEY SHOWS
Families of Camden and vicinity pay
$321. 2"4 in hidden taxes annually on
their retail purchases alone, according
to a survey announced today by
the National Consumers Tax commission
This harden, the report stated, is
I paid through increased prices of fond,
clothing, fuel, medicine and other daily
purchases The analysis, directed
from the NCTC headquarters in Chicago,
was based on total retail smK-s
in Camden of $2,059,000. as reported
bv the U S Bureau of the Census.
The commission is a non-politicai
organization of women combatting
I through local groups -unnecessary
j taxes that penalize consumers by inI
creasing the cost of living" and has
j more than ninety groups already ar-!
j tive in South Carolina, the report >ui.! |

Mrs C F Laurence, of Rock 11111. i

president, said in the report. "Hidden

i neressitl-f, of life, produce 63 per cent
of that burden. These unseen levies
jare taxes against the producer, manufacturer.

The report, which said nearly 3.o0o
! NCTC units across tin; country have

j pointed out the local hidden tax figure
concerns retail sales only and does
not Include many other taxes, hidden

Famous Pitcher
Now With Circus
Now York. Jan. !?,?Shaky but
dear-eyed Oiover Cleveland Alexandor.
the greatest pllchor of his time,
ciimo back to the big town today.
Hack to a tawdry tiea circus on Fortysecond
street whore twelve times a
day ho will, .talk Jn bl^ low, friendly
voice to the Idlers "and <Jowu-at-theheel
clients. He coinoa on Just before
the dancers. Juat after the sword asvallower.
In the stifling cubby-hole he uaea
to real in, Alexander smoked cigaret
after clgaret and admitted shyly It
was "darn good to get back to New
' York, haven't been here, or anywheer
in the Wast since 1930, when the PbillloH
let me go.. Had a semi-pro ball
team out In Illinois the last two summers,
but It was tough going, mighty
tough."
A year ago yesterday the baseball
writers voted Alex into the hull of
fame at Cooperstown, "Yoh, I'm right
proud of that honor," Bald old Beta.
The tone of his voice Implied, you
can't buy coffee and cakes with election
votes.
He Is out of the old time baseball,
this man. The time when kids stayed
with a corn cob wrapped in twine
and baseball wasn't a sport but a
gripping fever that caught you young
and never let go. He can't understand
the young fellows.
"They all have sore arms. Hell, I
never had a sore arm in my Ufa- I
don't have many theories, but one of
'em is this. Their arms aren't developed
because they don't throw endugh.
They come up to the leagues with
men's bodies and kid's arms. Then
they don't work enough or pitch
enough in practice. When they do
pitch they throw toe tiwa-mueb.
"Take this young Feller. He pitches '
a game and he strikes out ten of j
eleven. But ho walks ten or eleven J
too. That's forty-four balls he's thrown
on the walks alone, not countln' the
strikes. Then he don't work agin for
another three days. Of course he gets j
a sore arm." t
Alex talked on In the homely, back- j
on-the-farm lingo of ball players. He x
hasn't much faith in operations on j
pitching arms such as that undergone r
by Carl Hubbell. 1
"Never in my life heard of a pitch- j
er's arm recovering because of an accident.
Guess Carl's trouble 1b the t
same as mine was. His arm Just j
plumb wore out. Today I can't get a j
ball up to the .plate." >
Although he pitched in the National j
league from 1911 through 1930, won x
373 games, a National league record. t
and three times won 30 or more games (
a season, Alexander's fame with the (
crowd rests on the world series game, j
In the seventh game of the 1926 se- (
ries between the Yankees and St. t
Ixmis Cardinals with the Cards hold- t
ing a one-run lead, the New Yorkers
filled the bases with two out. Alex- ,
ander had pitched and won the sixth (
game the day before, had in fact, j
celebrated vigorously until almost ]
dawn. But Rogers Hornsby, desperate ,
for a relief pitcher, thumbed old Pete ,
in from the bull pen. 1
He shuffled In, his cap askew on ]
what must have been a pounding
head, threw a few and struck out the
batter, the young and eager Toney
Lazzeri. Two Innings later Baoe Ruth
was thrown out sliding into second
and the world series was over.
"Yup," said Alex, "they ask me
ahout that one^about fifty tlmos a day
What did 1 get him on?" He made a
sycthe-llke motion with one hand.
"The hook, old no. 2. And I didn't
feel too good that day. I sure was
glad to see that Eyetallan go down.
Guess that's the biggest day of all.
bigger'n the day I broke in and beat
Matty."
He walked out to get. some air. A
kid In short pants grabbed him for an
autograph, and exploded, "Isn't Joe
I)i Maggio better'n Ty Cobb?" "Well,
son," started Alex. At the other end j
of the garish room the barker was
shouting, "and now ladles and gentlemon,
we give you the pride of Paris,
Mademoiselle Mlml?"

Man Who Drew
Foxy Grandpa Dies
New York.?-The man who created
Poxy Orandpaw, a comic strip characer
whose humor delighted newspa>er
readers of a generation ago but
low would be considered corny, or
cky, died Wednesday in a furnished
oom beside the drawing board he
lad used as a works progress adminstr^tion
artist.
He was Carl E. Scliultze and toward
he end of his seventy-two^ years he'
lad come to resemble physically the
ilnkskinned, wlnkleteyed old fellow
vho made his bow in newsprint in
he New York Herald of 1900. It is not
inusual to find such a resemblance
letween cartoonists and their principal
characters. Except for Foxy's
curly topknot and muttonchop whiskers,
the resemblance was quite mark-'id
and there was also a spiritual re-j
lemblance, because both met adverdty
gaily.
In Foxy's case the adversity always
.vas temporary, for the duration of a
comic supplement page, but Schultze
'ound tho last twenty years of his
life, erer since his wife died, to be a
iuccession of reverses. For the previous
score of years he had been on
top of the world, wealthy and popular,
but the World War generation of
youngsters, who grew up to be flappers
and sheiks, had little use for
Foxy Grandpa. The genial Schultze
could not cope with the new pace, or
level, of humor. Foxy Grandpa disappeared
from the funny papers.
Schultze's fortunes declined rapid-,
ly. His real estate and stock holdings
were lost. The emergency relief bureau
aided him in 1935 and later he
worked for the WPA.
I^st November Schultze was taken
to St. Vincent's hospital after a heart
attack. Ho recovered and returned to
his rooming house, where, because he
dressed so neatly and carried himself
with such a jovial air, other lodgers
thought him comparatively prosperous.
He complained of heart pains Tuesday
night and a neighbor gave him a
tonic of raisins boiled in lemon Juice.
Wednesday morning a maid employed
in the building rushed Into the superintendent's
office and asked:
"si Schultzo all right?" I had a terrible
dream last night. I dreamed that
he was dead."
They found his body in the room,
between the drawing board and a
sketch of Foxy Grandpa which hung
on the wall and bore the inscription:
"Foxy Grandpa, first great comic success
of the twentieth century. Began
as a leading feature of the color supplement
of the New York Herald
Janury 7, 1900. Was successfully dra
matized in 1903 for a long run."
Another'wall picture?showing Mickey
and Minnie Mouse?was inscribed:
"To?arl E. Schultze, in admiration,
Walt Disney."
Schultze was born in Lexington, Ky..
in 1886 and his only known relative
is a Bister, Mrs.? C. C. f andersky of ?
Nicholasville, Ky. He worked for a
time in Chicago before he came to
New York.

"I started in Philadelphia, when
1 was fourteen. One day I wandered
to the Globe Vaudeville Theater,
where Hotace Goldln, the
famous Royal Russian Illusionist,
was headlining the bill. ?
"The first performance had me
popeyed, with moving pictures that
turned into real life and girls who
walked through glass and suoh.
I stayed through the nekt show.
.This time the illusion went to pot,
for the musiclaus in the orchestra
had left the pit door open. Tberet
under the stage, plain as day was
Goldin's crew of stagehands going
through all of the business that
produces illusions on the stage
itself.
"That spoiled everything, and 1
resented It. 80, after the act was
finished, I went backstage and saw
Goldln. He asked me what the soand-so
I wanted, and I told blm.
1 wanted a Job with the act.
"He said I was Inexperienced.
I said I was smart and could learn.
He studied me a moment and
askod, 'Are you llmberT' u
"I doubled Into a knot, for I
was small and wiry, (I still am.)
He hired me."
For years, MacDougall toured
the world and took every opportunity
be found to learn about
gamblers and gambling. It wasn't
until the depression that his
knowledge became his career. The
depression didn't break lfa$pougall
but it sent to the oledners a
certain young member of an aristocratic
eastern family, and that's
what put him to work spotting
crooks.
This amateur now is the famous
card detective and has played
in scores of fashionable clubs,
trains, steamships ? everywhere
gambling goes on. He always gets
his man.
The writer exposes the simple
and also the Intricate card tricks
that are being practiced in thousands
of gambling games every
day.
