(Mullins Enterprise)
A party of young men drove over!
to Horry county last week for a three
days' hunt before the bird law went
into effect on the 15th. They were
quests of ?'rvin Jones, at his country
home one r ile from Cool Springs. The
drive throe :h the country was made
without an;, special incident and groat'
sport was 'ound in shooting birds
along the \v: y.
The hunt< rs came to their destination
about S o'clock in the evening1 ami
found a hot supper awaiting, which
was most a, pothing to all after a
drive of more than twenty miles, and
each did ample justice to the meal.
The town boys, tired out, retired
soon, but little did they sleep the first
night, for t! e hooting of the owls and
the unusual 30unds of the country life.
Gee! How tho noiso would rinc out
in the open districts of the swamps
nearby.
Fox and other game is nearly as
l plentiful as birds in that section and
two of the young Mullins boys declare
they saw a large red fox approach in
the open held near the house on Saturday.
During Friday and Saturday the
boys roamed over the large plantation
lying between Cool Springs and Aynor
so abundantly productive and rich in
resources. Cotton and tobacco has
beeti the principal crops until this
year and the acreage of tobacco especially
us being cut. Wheat is in the
ground where it has never been knowr
be fore.
One of the boys who went over or
the trip last week contracted to at
tend a one horse farm for the family
where he stopped. He is now follow
ing the plow daily and expects t<
make a bumper crop on 25 acres thi
season. He will not return to Mullins
* "Rex" a valuable bird do# belong
ing to one of the hunters, was takei
sick suddenly on Friday. The younj
men began to wonder how the bird
could be found without his assistanc
the next day. Saturday's huntin
was good notwithstanding the fac
I that the dog was feeble, and man
I were the birds killed.
I Monday when the return trip wa
I made the faithful old bird dog agai

party was sent for medicine for the 1
dog, but in his haste and anxiety he <
was not careful to follow directions ]
and got the medicines mixed. In some ]
unaccountable manner the poor dog i
was given a dose of strychnine. The (
mistake was not detected until it was t
too late and "Rex," the king of bird 1
dogs, departed this life for the happy c
hunting grounds beyond the grave.

hard to give up the only little darling ;
in the home. She was certainly a (
bright little girl and carried sunshine ]
whereever she went. Not only will
the family miss her bright little face

her time had come for the Lord knew

He doeth all things well. We hope to
meet her in heaven in the sweet bye

our paths. Though her stay here was

later part of the Cretaceous and the
early part of the Eocene chapters?
perhaps b to 10 million years ago. A
report recently issued by the Geological
Survey as Professional Paper 90-J,
entitled "The Cretaceous-Eocene Concact
in the Atlantic and Gulf Costal
Main," by L. W. Stephenson- discusses
this missng part of the record and
>hows that the break must cover a
rery long perod of time. It is known
.hat at that time the continents were
it least as large as and probably larger
than they are now, and the oceans
,vere accordingly smaller. Any rocks
hat. were then formed in the sea seem
o have been weathered and washed
iway.
Hundreds of kind of plants ar,.d aninals
that lived before and hundreds
iftcr this great period are known, hut
iot one which lived during the period.
Strange to say, few if any of the species
which existed before the unknown
period lived through it. It is like a
play in which the places of one act remain
the same as in the preceding
but the characters are all new, and
yet many of the new players resemble
the old ones so much that one is compelled
to admit that they are close relatives.
In each of the States bordering
the Atlantic Ocean, sou'h of New
York, and the Gulf of Mexico, arc
layers of rock which were formed before
and after the period whose record
is missing. In these layers arc
entombed sea shells of many kinds
but apparently not one spcies liver
through from Creatceous to Eocene
time.

WEBB LIQUOR LAW

Big Eight on Constitutionality of Re

Washington, March 19.?Prepara
tions have been made for considerat

ter Easter of litigation involving th
constitutionality and interpretation o
the Webb-Kcnyon liquor law, by Con
gross in 1913.
The "drys" contend that the Webh
Kenyon law has withdrawn from in
terstatc shipment^ of intoxicants li
quor consigned to local option tcrri

1 aimed at "bootlegging" and does not
withdraw the commerce clause protection
from interstate shipments designed
for personal use.
Express companies and railroads
lines are as much concerned over the
proper construction of the law as over
the question of validity. Liquor dealers
throughout the country have gone
into the court to compel carriers to ac
cept shipments of "personal use" into
dry territory.
In Kentucky, the courts adopted the
! "wet" construction and an express
| company forseeing an alleged nccesj
sity of employing a big force of in!
.spectors and detectives to ferret out
the purpose of each shipment appealed
to the supreme court. It is this
case which will be argued after Easter.

West Virginia and North Carolina liquor

A Sign of the Times.
Taylorsville, 111.?First with amaze
ment, almost increduity, and finally
with alarm, citizens of Taylorsville
yesterday morning gazed at a billboard
on a side street of this city,
which bore a whiskey advertisement.
It was almost too much to believe!
5 Here was an open violation of the local
dramshop ordinance which, on account
of its being probably the most
' drastic measure of its kind ever passj
ed by a city council, has attracted attention
all over the country. The ordinance
expressly forbids th e sale,
drinking, smell, sigh, possission or
pictures of anything that in any way
r might be call ed or enjoyed as spirit1
uous liquor. It has a section which
expressly states that no signs or advertisements
which might create a
desire for liquor shall be allowed with
in the city limits. Under this section
- falls the billboard advertisement?for
it was a particularly attractive piece
- of work, plainly stating that the whta.
- key mentioned was one "without a
- "headache"?and obviously that is
e some inticement. So the city authorf
ities hauled out their legal artillery
r and directed its fire upon M. J. Hogan
head of the Hogan Posting Service?
i- and Mr. Hogan has intimated that
i- they may blaze away and he'll be
i- VQady with some of the gun (ire him[
self when the judge calls the case to
I- trial. The penalty provided by the
o city ordinance for the offense is a
e fine of from $5 to $100. Mr. Hogan
y'will fight the case to a finish. Under

United States and Mexico. ^
It now seems that the United States
will have to intercede for the pro- ^
tection of our own people and property
in Mexico City. Many of our people
and other nationalities, it seems, have
been killed, and property destroyed. y
The differences in Mexico are growing
more accute every day, and, while the J
United States has been acting wisely
it seems now that we will have to go V
into the struggle to protect our in- j
te rests. President Wilson has undoubtedly
displayed wonderful judgment
all the while. His attitude in
the matter has attracted world-wide
attention. However, the time has arrived
now when our people must take
a hand, and, in our opinion, the sooner
the better. Some of our best war ships
