It seems probable now that war on a big scale will be averted. It is true that there may. at any time, be kindled a conflagration that wi^cnvelop practically the whole world But, for the present, it seems that some sort of peace may be patched up. It was regarded as a significant and happy fact that Palestine, at the close of the great war, was to bo freed from the Turk and given virtual freedom in order that the Jewish people might establish a nation in that country. It now appears doubtful whether the Near East, including Palestine, is to be rid of the Turk. The plan to build a Jewish state has appealed not only to Jew, but Gentile as well. The Christian world Iris long held to a belief in some sort of "restoration" for "Israel* as have the Jewish people. Judge James E. I'eurifoy of Walteroboro, addressing the grand jury at the opening session of court in Chester this week, said that 75 per ent of the crimes before the courts is traceable to liquor. Had he said 90 per cent he would not have been wrong. Directly and indirectly, 'iquor plays the leading role in the march of lawlessness. This was true Lefore the coming of prohibition. It was true when the liquor traffic was under no restrictions of law; it was true under the old bar-room rule; it was true under dispensary rule. We !?va never vet. as a Deo Die. realized ? . y~., .... . . ,? . r the deadly nature of strong drink. The thing itself is evil, and it is thc great, source of all manner of crimes.

In that day when a hog trespassed on the fields the dogs were called, in requisition. The dogs generally seised a hog by the ear and would not let oose without being beaten or choked ff until they had chewed off the car j:na mere were two aogs very oiten both ears were chewed off close to the nead and then if- there was any doubt ?n regard to the identity of the hog in question the tail measurement was brought in requisition. Dr. Going, speaking about the improvement of the roads, says that he saw a wagon loaded with eight bales >. f cotton thereon with two mules as ..he motive power, said something like this: "Some years ago it was two bales and sometimes four mules and hard pulling at that." Homo rose to remark that one person remained in the rear of the wagon to "scotch" the wagon when ascending a hill (I mean the wagon) to push when he was not 'scotching" to make the ascent. Most of the wagons were supplied with a feed box swing on the hind gate and in the said feed box was a chuck fashioned somewhat like a mallet with which answered as a cruck. Sometimes it was a good healthy sized rock. , I have now a finger that bears the scar as a gentle reminder of getting my finger caught between the rock and tire which happened some 70 years ago. The driver who rode the left-hand i mule next to the wagon would crack his whip and use it freely if the j .trace chains slackened a bit and use words not fit for polite ears to hear 'and perhaaps he would succeed in getting up to the top of the hill provided lie had a good "scotcher" and pusher combined. If it was some 12 or 14 miles to town the caravan would camp out at night. If the weather required it a huge log fire was, built and a bed was made by spreading down millf a o J Vil n nhnfn Jl^^ ? * vju'ivo ui>u uiouivcia mvil uufiuivss UI f fodder for pillows.

Estes of Lowryvilie 1 were guests of Mrs. Homo for-the ? week-end. j I make a brief extract from -the Southern Railway Bulletin for Sep- ( tember: ' "Conductor O. J. Myer of the Spartanburg division is the roan. He is assigned to the Lockhart branch which extends from Lockhart Junction to Lockhart; S. C. Recently he was called on after his regular hours ro v take his engine to Lockhart Junction 1 to pick up three cars of soldiers who f live at Lockhart, who had been ofT on 1 their annual camping trip for two * weeks. There were a number of Tela- 8 tivea and friends of the soldiers at. v Lockhart who wanted to meet them c and accompany them home. Conductor Meyer was under instructions c to take only his engine. He had no * way to communicate with headquar- ^ ters quicKiy. lie had a regular coach ^ at Ix)ckhart and to accommodate the t mothers, sisters, sweethearts > and e friends of the returning soldiers he ? took the responsibility on himself to 1 attach the coach to the engine and t permitted the local citizens to make t the round trip collecting from them ( the usual cash fares." This action of Captain Meyers was t commended by the Southern Railway h management. 0 Miss Lucile Peason, who is attend- y ing the high school at Spartanburg v was a week-end visitor at the home of 1 ^ier parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Dea- s son.

Advance orders for tickets point to % a complete sell-out of the 63,000 seat*,- and" if -this- results, the attendant -will set 'a new record for football in the middle west. Last year the ' | BtRkeyes and Wolverines played before a record crowd of 42,000 in the rededication of the enlarged Ferry Field at Anif Arbor. Simfrie but impressive ceremonies ( will mark the dedication of the new stadfom, with color raising ceremonies and a parade of notables comprising the pre-game program. Governors H. L. Davis-of Ohio and A. J. Groesbeck of Michigan, Ohio and Michigan men in public life, educators and athlete* - will participate in the parade aroand the field. ' Amid strains of alma mater songs to De piayea oy tno nu-piecea unto = Statu band, raepresentatives of West- N ern Conference University will pull 18-foot pennants presented by their respective schools, up 30-foot flap: poles stop the walls of Ohio Stadium. ^ Michigan colors will go up first, the w Scarlet and Gray of Ohio State last. cj With 30 huge pennants of the "Big Ten" universities snapping in the ^ breeze above the 100-foot concrete and steel wall of the stadium, Miss Eloise t From me of Urbana, O., Stadium girl during the fund-raising campaign of 1920, will hoist the national colors on S( the field flag pole while the Michigan and Ohio State bands play "The Star Si Spangled Banner," following which Artillery pieces manned by University cadets will bark a saliute of 21 guns. As part of the preparation for dedication day, the first attempt in history to re-unite every Ohio State grid _! squad since the original eleven .n 1890, is being made by former captains. Each egptain will head his colleagues in a parade down the new Stadium field. V Dedication of Ohio Stadium will add something Tiew to the architecture of ^ modem stadia. In being horseshoe- at shaped, the Ohio plant resembles that pi >f Harvard, but in having two decks the Ohio Plan is unique. The advanages ascribed to the double-deck feat- e(^ are include bringing of what would ^ ae rear seats much eloser to the play- e> ng field and the sheltering of 21,000 p* teats in the lower deck. Nearly ten acres are covered by the Dhio Stadium, which measures one;hird of a mile from end to end and er towers 107 feet high.

Mr. Willon has just roturned from a tour vhich included Armenia and South:rn Russia. "Corn grits are used principally in >riginal form to feed the starving, ^ >ut what can be spared is used to >uy other things, such as meat," Mr. iVilson explained. "Corn grits fetch C wo cents a pound and have supplant;d rubles in Armenia as the* accept- y id currency. Fifteen hundred caroads, carried to the American sea>oard gratis by the railroads, have een shipped to Armenia since last e: )ctober. || "The Armenian gavernment,. con- ? rolled by the Moscow government, las granted property worth $60,000,>00 to the Near East Relief for five 'ears; 60,000-acres and 176 buildings, _ yhieh are used in institutional work.
