Relief At Last For Your Cough Creomulsion relieves promptly because it goes right to the seat of the trouble to help loosen and expel germ laden phlegm, and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender Inflamed bronchial mucous membranes. Tell your druggist to sell you a bottle of Oreomulslon with the understanding you must like the way it quickly allays the oough or you are to have your money back. CREOMULSION For Coughs, Chest Colds, Bronchitis "Build-Up" Important Protector of Women A weak, undernourished condition often enables functional dysmenorrhea to get a foothold; thus leads to much of woman's suffering from headaches, nervousness/ and other periodic discomfort.

Under escort of a 'Wound wagon" playing stirring military ftiarches the Thunderbolt arrived here at 10:30 o'clock from Columbia. A caravan of Cainden citizens driving Chrysler cars met the Thunderbolt near the Gus Ward club house and escorted It to the city. l>ed by Chief of Police Alva Rush on his mo I torcyele, the big modernistic car was led by cars driven by L). H. Baum, C. H. Stogner, Frank 11. Heath, Mr. Neese and others. At the Chrysler sales station here a big crowd gathered to greet the- car Hiding in the Thunderbolt as it came into the city was Mayor F. N. McC'orkle, who later was photographed Witn the driver. The Thunderbolt resembles tho faanous racing machine of the same name. Bystanders wero amazed at t'he uncanny operation of the various features of the car. A push button when pressed caused a top of steel to rise and cover the driver. Another but ton opened the curtains In front of the headlamps. Another started sweet music coming from?where? No one con Id see a loud speaker but tho music came forth. The <ai is a radical departure ill design from the present day machine.

R. 1776, generally known as the I^endIvease Bill, or the Aid-to Britain Bill, was Introduced last week by Senator Barkley, Democatlc Leader of the Senate, and Representative McCormack. Democratic Leader of the House. 1 he Bill came up for hearing before theH ou8 e Foreign Affairs Committee Monday morning. These hearings have continued morning and afternoon for the entire week, and will probaoly take up at least another week. The main purpose of the bill is: ''To sell, transfer, exchange, lease, lend, or otherwise dispose of, to any government whose defense is necessary to our own defense, any defense article." "To manufacture in our arsenals, factories, and shipyards, or other wise procure, any defense article for the government of any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the United States." There has. of course, been much outcry in Congress, and throughout the country, either in support of or in opposition of the bill. Most members of Congress agree that, regardless of our personal opinion of the British people and their government, it would be disastrous to us in the long-run for that government to be destroyed. Most members, however, want to keep out of this war and are concerned whether or not enactment of this legislation will bring war closer to us. Many members feel teat passage of the bill will tend tp keep war away from us. Since my Committee began hearings on the bill, I have received many communications from all parts of the country, expressing the pro or con viewpoint That is one of the great things about Democratic government ?everyone has a right to his or her opinion and can express it anywhere without hindrance by individuals or the government itefelf. The three witnesses we have already heard are Secretary of State Hull, Secretary of War Stlmson, end Secretary of the Navy Knox. We will hear Mr. Knudsen, Chairman of the Defense Council today; and we will probably hear General Hugh JohnsprfT i Ambassador to Bngland, Kenneg^rfj Mr. Wlllkie, Republican Presidential Nominee last year; and other distinguished figures next week. Witnesses already heard nil testified that, in their opinion, it is absolutely necessary to render additional aid to Great Britain along the liv?es suggested in the Dill; otherwise, Germany will probably win the war this year. They all further agreed that if Germany wins, we will inevitably be forced to fight for our existence as a nation sooner or later. It is hoped that hearings will not continue too long, as we generally realize here that if anything is to be done under the provisions of the bill, it should be done within the next few weeks, as the British financial statement reveals that Great Britain only has enough money in "dollar exchange" to pay for orders already placed with .Industry in thiB country; and that If orders are to be planned and placed for the year 1941, additional financial aid from some source inu8t come. In view of the Inauguration of President Roosevelt for his third term on next Monday; the House will take up no business at its session on that day. The House and Sonato will only be called to order for the purpose of marching in a' body .to the Inaugural Platform to hear the President's Inaugural Address. Committees wiM resume hearings on Tuesday and the House will take up routine matters on that day. What is tho Congress? The Congress of the United States is the legislative branch of the National Government, In effect the National legislature, and consists of two branches?the Senate and the House of Representatives. Its existence, authority, and limitations ar,e provided by the Constitution, Article 1, which begins as follows: "AH legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.'" How long have we had a Congress? The first Congress dated from March I 4, 1789, to March 8, 1791. It had no ' practical existence, however, pntil ' April 30, 1789, when the presence of quorums In both Houses permitted complete organization. Travel was not as easy and fast then as now. Members of the First Congress from South Carolina "were Senators Pierce Butler and Ralph Izard; and the 1 Representatives were Aedanus Burke, Daniel Huger, William L. Smith, -^homas Sumter, and Thomas Tudor Tucker. Weekly News Letter From Liberty Hill Liberty Hill. Jan. 22?At the Presbyterian church Sunday, Elder N. S.
