The farmer who raises all that ho uses at home, or the greater proportoin of it, is not struck by the high cost of food supplies. o We want the farmers of Horry County to study stock raising more and more. It is one of the great remedies for the boll weevil which is threatening . o While the war is over as a result of the signing of the armistice, yet hp pffppfs firp with iik vot. Am on I? the worst effects that we feel every day is the high cost of living. o Ah the countries who remained neutral during the world war when they should have come out on the side of the allies are among th? biggest claimants now to favors and advantages that winning the war has bi ought. The country will now be encouraged to build and enterprises will b asked to spread out wider than ever before. This plan is necessary in order to bring things back like they were before the whole country had to use every energy it had to th? winning of the world war. o There is one thing of which all th 1 people may fcol sure1 and that i.s that every cent invested in the propei manner in the building of good roads will add two cents to the value of property. In this way we can get two cents back for one. o The records at the court house have been completely rcindexed as tc the deeds and mortgages of real es tate; and the result is a much easi ier task for anybody who wants tc make a search of these records. Th( grantors and grantees are all )iste< at one place now under the Cott sys tern. Formerly you had to1 lool through seven or eight old indexe, to find out if a deed or mortgage ha been giren from or to a certain per son. Now the family names of th county all appear in one place in i small compass and the work is eas ier to do, and the result of a search i more accurate and dependable.

William A. ' Bishop, Canadian "ace," with sev-! enty-two German planes to his credI it, predicted confidently that both giant and one-engine pianos will be making transatlantic flights within six months. "Eight British firms are building planes to fly across the ocean," said Col. Bishop. "The Vickers Company will soon put out a machine of unprecedented size for that flight, but, foi my part, I think the trip can bo made in a single-engine plane. Such small machines are making regular trips between Montreal and Toronto. "Three firms will have aerial garages in Canada within a year. Then one may call up a garage, a plane will carry for him and he will bo off on the fastest and most delightful journey he ever made. These machines will carry freight too. "To encourage the building ol planes for commercial purposes, law: governing aerial traffic must b< > made and obeyed," uoi. Bishop wen on. "There must be rules of the air just as thereo are rules of the road > And the customs officers will hav > to be on the sharp lookout for acria I smugglers. * 't "The opportunity offered to smug c glers will be very tempting and, al a in all, the chances that they will es J cape detection will be vefy good, c? - p(cia!ly in cloudy or unsettled weal e er . a "In British Columbia airplatios ar - being used most successfully to dc s tect forest fires and prevent thei spread.

HORRY BOY WRITES FROM FAROFF FRANCE Vcrnie, France, Jan. 3. 1919. Editor Herald:? Please allow me space in your valuable paper for a few lines from France. Never was such an appalling charge brought against any so-called civilized nation. In the whole history of collective criminality, there is no parallel to the Huns' record of deliberate devilishness. Now that the war is over and the great work of reconstructing the social organization of the world is the supreme task of the present. The dreadful tale of destruction, havoc and beostiality is sickening in its ghastly monotony. The very earth itself has been assassinated, several million acres of arable kind poisoned beyond possibility of revi\al in less than three or four years. The noble forests of northern France reduced to masses of blackened, shapeless, mutiliated stumps, not merely in the fury of battle, but in the execution of a calculated design to destroy one of the country's beauties and sources of wealth: an immense number of houses annihilated. In certain localities not one dwelling is left standing. One may travel mile after mile through heaps of shattered brick and stone that once was villages and towns. In Ypres, Belgium, there is not a wall left to n ark where was a house, not only in Belgium but also in France. It is a .1 ? ) Ifi.milllU 11 V-lnMH, ' U LUWII I fUUll'U to mincemeat.

France. o IMPORTANT SCHOOL NOTICE I have just returned from Columbia where I met with State SuperinU rulent Swearingen and the county superintendents of the state in an effort to help the schools that are suf firing as a rer.ult of the influenza epidemic. As is well known, many of the schools will be unab'e to meet the conditions which warrant their receiving Equalizing or Rural Graded Aid this year, on account of the flu. It was decided at this meeting to biing this matter beiore the General Assembly and to urge that body to pass an act making last year's enrollment and average attendance the j basis for receiving Equalizing anu! Rural Graded Aid this year. A bill | i ,.i u ?? tiiiU4iuv UVX'U lutiuuucuu III LIIKZ ; * House and we feel sure that it will be crafted. We feel safe in advising | all schools that fail to make quite all . or even half of their required enroll - j ment and attendance to continue to! run with the expectation of receiving state aid. Rural graded schools that did not begin before Christmas are too late to apply for Rural Graded Aid and will have to look to the Extension and Equalization funds for aid from the state. M. J.

The most emphatic answer thi r- Young Men's Christian Associate i- can make to charges of profitin which have been made by returnir f soldiers is that the organization h* distributed free $1,400,000 worth ( canteen supplies, William Sloan n" chairman of the organization's m at tional war work council, said in statement issued last week. i LoadsfEE I have this week the best ever shipped.

Their response to this worthy cause hus been splendid indeed. But there are yet sever- i il Councils of Defense who have, made no report. And but few church os and Sunday Schools have availed themselves of the opportunity of con tributing to this great enterprise for ' the relief of suffering humanity. J This is indeed one cause which ought 10 appeal to the heart of all Christian people, as well as those who feel for distressed .women and starving children. The small sum of $2,000 which Horry is asked to raise should have keen pledged and reported paid the first Sunday of the Campaign. An average of $20 for each local Council of Defense, or 10 cents for each person in the County would raise the fund. Shall we. report Horry short of this amount? Shall we report your Council of your community as having subscribed nothing to this cause ? Your answer, of course, is "No." We are holding our final report to hear from your Chairman or Secretary. We earnestly request that every Chairman of the various councils, aii Ministers, Sunday School workers and Missionary advocates get to work immediately .and make a final canvass not later than Sunday the. 2nd of February. yGet the allotment for your community and report soon thereafter to the County Treasurer, Chas. J. Gpps. Please do not delay this work! ! Horry must do her part! ?D. A. Spivey, Campaign Manager. o OFFICERS COME HOME. | Owing to the death of Senator B. IE.

Information reach e<l Washington today that President C'arranza had reorganized the Mexican army to a considerable extent, obtained sufficient arms anil equipment and had inaugurated a new campaign against the rebels and ' bandits operating in different parts of the republic. Several bands of rebels surrendered unconditionally with their commanders, the reports say, and other groups dispersed, the men promising to return home, while the leaders either fled or were captured. 1 no states of Jalisco and Guerrero ^ have been cleared of rebels, accord- y ing to these advices, with the extermination of the band under Pedro 'Mf Zamona. Zamona was wounded and captured. General Barcenas, one of Zapata's commanders, was reported to have | unconditionally surrendered in Guert rero, this being the last band in that : state opposing the government. The > rebels also have been suppressed in Morelos, Pueblo and Tlaxcala, it was sai<l. Gen. Aguilar has been placed in command of the reorganized government force sent against Diaz. The advices reported that five gen y erals with other officers of lesser rank, had been ordered to Chihuahua for a new campaigrf Against Pancho ? Villa.* ' > After the outbreak of the Euro pean war, President Carranza, unable to obtain arms or munitions from the United States or other sources, established factories for the 1 manufacture of explosives and rifle parts, which are now in operation and which are believed to have enabled him to equip his reorganized army <"or the now campaigns. o HONOR ROLL For Burroughs High School for thj Month Ending Jan. 17, 1919.
