K. BOYD COLE IS MAJOR. Former Barn\vell Editor in the Regular Army. R. Boyd Cole, editor of the Barnwell Sentinel for more than twelve years and prominent in the National Guard of the state, being major of the Second battalion of the old Third regiment of infantry before its consolidation with the Second South Carolina infantry, has been commissioned a major in the regular army. Major Cole is stationed at Camp Lewis, Tacoma, where he commands a battalion of the Thirty-ninth ^lfantry regular. He recently went there from ^ Camp Dodge, Iowa. Graduating from the Citadel in the class of 1903, he was elected superintendent of the Barnwell city schools, holding the position for two years. For the next twelve years he owned and edited the Barnwell Sentinel. In the first officers' training camp at Fort Oglethrope, he was commissioned captain going overseas with the 323rd infantry in the Eighty-first (Wild Cat) division, which was trained at Camp Jackson, Columbia. Overseas he was promoted to a major and in May, 1919, transferred to the Thirty-ninth infantry, in the Fourth division. He served with this regiment in the Army of Occupation in Germany and while in Germany wrote and published the official history of the Thirty-ninth infantry in the world war.?News and Courier.

Come all ye earful people And lay in lots of coal; And, old boll weevil, You had better dig deep, For a rip Snorter is coming Which will put you to sleep. So says, and signs Snider, Professor Albert Lee Snider, the sage of Spalding, Griffin's peerless prognosticator. Snider not only says and signs. He prefers now to write his own articles. In former days it was the custom of this fearless forecaster merely to send in his predictions, his poems and his obiter dicta (this casual yet none the less important remarks on things in general.) These were submitted in rather disconnected, not to say incoherent, form. But Snider has progressed so far along in the art of . prose composition that now he furnishes his articles complete and ready for publication. So The Sunday American will not disturb the continuity and sequence of his thoughts and will publish verbatim and seri atim; his latest article, disturbing it only to put at the top the dainty verse which Snider had thrown in as a postcript?laginappe, as it were: "Professor Albert Lee Snider Predicts a very cold winter, there are three Snow Storms Due on Georgia Soil the coming winter, the first freezing weather November 20th, also lookout for the first Snow Storm the last week in December followed by a big Sweeping cold wave that will reach far into the south.

But the general outlook is much dry weather for Oct. "My weather predictions has hit remarkably well this year. .1 predicted* August would be wet and it was. I said Sept. would be dry and hot, that is the general-outlook for September would be much dry weather and so it was." Snider speaks truly when he says modestly, that he has hit remarkably well this year. Indeed he has. He is, without a doubt the George Sisler of posey, the Babe Ruth of meterology.

Paris professor, to import 2,000,000 husbands for French women unable to find husbands in France is receiving encouragement from Argentine, Canada and parts of the United States where men are more numerous than women. Dr. Carnot has received letters from many young men who are willing to come to France to marry if they are assured of finding employment. In California, it is stated, prospective husbands propose to form an association. Dr. Carnot is planning to form an association of prospective wives in France. He declares that France will lose 6,000,000 children if the French women are deprived of the chance of marrying. See the new model Edison Phonographs at W. H. Chandler's.

Fricks, surgeon of the United States public health service, in charge of malaria control work in this district, was in Columbia yesterday and while here conferred with state health officials with regard to work recently done in this state. Dr. Pricks expressed himself as pleased with the work which has been done in various cities, and said that the work at Bomberg was the largest engineering project undertaken in any of the states, with perhaps one exception, in his district. Dr. Fricks' headquarters is at Mem phis, and he is in charge of malaria control work in several southern states. The hope was expressed by Dr. Fricks that other communities would come to see the advantages of having malaria surveys made and would at once take up the work. Capt. L. M. Fisher, of the public health service, has been actively in charge of the malaria control work in the state, and has cooperated with state health officials in efforts to eliminate malaria. The surveys are made without expense to communities, the funds for the work being provided by the international health board, the public health service and the state. While in Columbia Dr. Fricks held a lengthy conference with Dr. James A. Hayne, state health officer.?The State. Auto Tax Fees. Class A: Automobile weighing not over 2,000 pounds, $6.

The Birds Should Be Protected. Editor The Herald:?In traveling over the state meeting many farmers I have tried to find time to call attention in public and private to the necessity of protecting and preserving the partridge or quail. The greatest exterminator of the boll weevil is the partridge. I was informed a few days ago by a colored mail that he had killed a dove and had found boll weevils in his craw. Birds of other kinds are scarce in this state. Men find time to shoot any kind of birds they come across. The bull bat destroys many mosquitoes but is shot down frequently. The toad frog is a useful and helpful creature. He is the greatest enemy that the army worm and other wTorms have. I sawr a pasture the other day where a strange worm had mowed the grass down and was making its way into the fields of hay and fodder. The farmer can do a great work if if he will preserve on his farm (whether he owns it or not) the partridge and other birds. Let the toads have free access to the gardens and fields. Ilearned this not very long ago when I took a trip to Louisiana, Texas and Alabama. RICHARD CARROLL. Modest Man. Smith?"You seldom see such beautiful golf as that man plays.
