Author of 44A Perfect Day" Had Hard " Sailing For Many Years. .-Washington.?"We can be what we want to be, despite everything, if we set our minds and hearts on it. "Adversity is an opportunity. "I'm glad I've been poor; it makes one more human. But?I don't want to be starving poor any more!" Such is the creed of a woman who, left widowed and practically penniless at 30, has made fame and fortune in two lines of endeavor; first as a composer of songs, second as publisher of the output of her brain. This woman is Mrs. Carrie JacobsBond, best known as the author-composer of "A Perfect Day." When you meet the Mrs. Bond of today, prosperous, exquisitely gowned, gracious, cultured, it is difficult to picture her as battling poverty 20 years ago. "When I was only four," Mrs. Bond" said, "I could pick out on the piano any melody I heard. But in the little isconsin town where I spent my girlhood, no special attention was given to this gift. "When in my early twenties I married Dr. Frank Bond. We lived at Iron River, Mich. Most of my husband's patients were among the poor miners. For two years, follow.1 _ r lono hnchonr] ing 1116 paillC Oi lovo9 my jiiuojuau virtually doctored the poor gratis. Then, in 1895, Dr. Bond died. I went to Chicago to fight my own ight for existence. I knew something of china painting, and it was by painting china I managed to earn enough to buy food and clothes. Then I began to'try out s^me of the lerses and tunes .that came to me as I worked. "I painted my own title pages and offered these first songs to the pub- lighers. They were accepted, but they brought me mighty little in t?e way of royalties." An opportunity came for Mrs. Bond to sing at the executive mansion in Springfield. She needed the publicity and prestige such an opportunty would give her. But she 'had no gown fit for the occasion. "An old lace curtain was sacrificed and the gown was made," she says. About this time she decided the royalties she was getting weren't enough. So she determined to be her own publisher.

The supplies j were kept in a closet. To advertise 'her songs, she accepted "concert" engagements at $10 per concert. The tide turned for the better, however, in 191 (f, with the publication of "A Perfect Day." Since that time more than 5,000,000 copies of this one song have been sold. "There 'have been many incorrect stories of how and where 'A Perfect Day' was written," says Mrs. Bond. "The words were written for a dinner card. Later I hummed the words one evening and a friend-exclaimed: I 'Oh, you've got another song!' " 'Maybe you're right,' I said. "The success of the song proved she was.". At the white house the other night, when Mrs. Bond^-*stopping on her way to Europe?was a guest, "A Perfect Day" was the closing number of the musical programme. It is President and Mrs. Harding's favorite melody. The president, in au- j tographing a photograph for his iguest, wrote: "With the gratitude of one who ever delights in an undying composition." J Mrs. Band's publishing house has grown from the hall bedroom in Chicago to a completely equipped mi hliaViin cr nlont at Hnllvwnnd Calif., and Mrs. Bond no longer has to wonder where the next meal is coming from or how her gown for a concert is to be improvised. "I think t?he present trend in music," says Mrs. Bond, "is decidedly toward more melodious music of the really human sort. "Manv music houses have failed \ recently. There has, however, been a steadily growing demand for the r\ n V, 1J c V, o t mi- nlont nil f in BUi-lgO ?C y U Uiioil a, v. HI v? (/luuv " Hollywood. "I do not know that the publishing of 'Jazz music' or a slump in the demand for that sort of compositions had anything to do with the failure, but I do notice a growing demand for the melodies that carry a real human note. The old fashioned waltzes'4 are coming back." Weary Willie's Wish. "You will never get anywhere unless you have higher ideals than this" preached the woman at whose door the tramp had applied for assistance. "Are you really content to spend your life walking around the country begging?" "No, lady," answered Weary Willie.

To Control Fleas. Clemson College, June 17,?The following suggestions are made by Prof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist, in answer to inquiries on how to get rid of fleas." # 1. These pests originating on dogs1 and cats kepts as pets on premI ises, it is necessary to treat these ani rnals first. 2. After these animals have been properly treated, as well as their bedding, the places where fleas abound must also be treated. Such places are open spaces under the house, pig pens and places around the barns which dogs and cats frequent. The material suggested for treating is any one of the coal tar products, examples of which are, chloro naptholeum, creso, zenolium, and creolin. Bathe the dogs and cats thoroughly in a three per cent, solution of one of these coal tar products. After washing them, treat the bedding. Then make up a ten per cent, solution, and with a little foot pump or other kind of sprayer or sprinkling pot?if the place can be reached? apply this material thoroughly. Tim hasp nav nf a nrivatp snlriipr I during the World War was: United States, $1; Great Britain, 35 cents; France, 5 cents; Italy, 2 to 4 cents; and Germany, 10 cents. * * ? innln/tAmA E laiiiiiumiG | selection of your | 0 be seen in this B 1 at most places, ? let us show you. || Summer Wear I - j nd style we carry, so |1 kind you need, come * M Te are showing them m and CHURCH wear. i II that if its a TYR/ESS H ki U1AU/U XX X U\J %Ai X/AVXIVM ffgpfl is the place to look, f fl rith the garment you | II Wares I | for when you can find j m it essential garments M om place to place try- || o come to HOOTONJS ^ S. C. I IN MEMORIAM Mrs. Hibernia Hays and Miss Addys G. Hays. As the years go by and one by one the Chapter members pass beyond, it seems- most fitting that we should pause for a while and dbntemplate the mysteries of death and gatner J the riches from the lives of the departed members and record their deeds of service for the enhancement . J of the future goodness and greatness. No greater loss 'has ever come to the Chapter than was feft when, with- . vin the course of a few weeks, occur- _ . vi red the deaths of Mrs. Hibernia .. -i ? 1 J ways, ana or ner uaugmer, .maa Addys G. Hays. Both, loyal, devoted members, always ready to help carry forward the great work of the organization, we deeply feel the loss in their going and realize that their > places can never be filled. It was an especial treat to the members of the Chapter, when Mrs. Hays? was able to attend a meeting and igive in her ! humorous, vivacious manner, remi- / i niscence?.of the war and of the hardships endured during those trying days of the Sixties. , \ In those two deaths, we realize the fact that there-is something majestic in the exactims of death, it burnishes its sickle to garner the old who are ripe in experience and rich in good deeds and the young, who" are in love with life and with high-hopes and longings for the future.^ Death is at all times awe-inspiring -3 - -? rr i-fliroronpo tn tVlP<?P t/hft ami in uunig ~ beloved members and to the others of the band who have gone on before, we are reminded that we too shall pass this way but once and whatever of love or sympathy or hel^ for our fellow man we may plan to do must be done quickly ere our day too is ended. And to the sorrowing ones left behind we can give the assurance through our risen Lord thnr death is not the end of mortal existence, t^iat there is a life beyond the grave. MRS. W. P. JONES MRS. A. M. BRABHAM. v The* Problem. A man who had obtained work in a railway yard was told to mark some trucks. ? "Here's a bit of chalk," said the ji foreman. "Mark each of 'em elev-en." A little later the foreman came round again . There was a largo "T" on the first truck. Nothing else had T J ^ ueen uuue. "What does this mean?" asked the foreman. "Only one truck done and I said eleven not one." "I know," said the man, "but I couldn't think which side of the "I" the other "I" goes." ? Mrs. John J. Rigers, of Massachusetts, has begun an investigation of conditions in soldiers' hosrifcals as a personal agent of President Harding. * .33
