THURSDAY, OCT. 16, 1919 The more we learn In thin world the more we see that we need to learn; and we never get done. x |J} o Plenty of corn and other food crops on the farm means increased production of live stock and an increase in the fanner's income, ft o Fear as to the results keeps many a farmer from branching out into new lines of production on his farm. o There is a constantly growing demand for motor cars in this county. Some of the dealers fail to secure the j cars to keep up with their sales. o The automobile is a great time saver when it comes to going j somewhere; and it is a great money waster unless the owner knows well; how to take care of it. o It is safe to say that more land trades have been made this Fall than ever before in one season in the history of this section of the country. ii Strikes which tie up the big factories will only result in making a still harder time for everybody later on. o So far the farmers have been blessed with good weather for gathering their crops. No matter how large a crop may be, the time has been when the farmers learned that weather con ditions after the crop had been made took all of the best of it away. Ti is year they have been fortunate. o As national prohibition goes into effect the illicit manufacture of intoxicating drinks multiplies as ;certainly proved by the great numbei of stills captured in this State during the last few months. There are num erous stills running according to re polls, even in the populous centers ( the country. o?

Th people of the country have gradual 1 come back to giving close attentio to their individual affairs and this I the reason why everybody is moi than usually busy just at this tim Things which were laid aside on a< count of the stress of the war, ha\ been taken up again and business o fires are full of business that migl have been done last year or the yei before if it had not been for the wa This rush of business will persist fc some time to come, but it will pus away jut as all either conditions i time pass away.

THE HORRY HERALD, OPT MARRED MEN NOT WANTED IN N. 6. UNITS War Department is Discouraging EnTistment of Men Who Have Dependents. > x Washington,?Enlistment of married men in National Guard units is being discouraged by the War Depait ment. The reason for this, from the federal government's viewpoint, is given ' in a letter from Sercetary of War Baker to Senator William J. Harris, of Georgia, who had written to inquire about it. The Secretary says: "The regulation discouraging the enlistment or reenlistment of married men or others having dependents, was adopted after our experience when the National Guard was called into the service as such, in 1916 ani again in 1917. Recalls Former Experience. "You will no doubt recall the flood of applications and the great pressure that was brought to bear upon a 1 members of Congress, the militaiy bureau, and all in authority to secure the discharge from the service of those having persons dependent uix n them for support. "Orders were finally issued by the War Department authorizing the di charge fom the service of those men who had bona fide dependents. This resulted in many cases in practically disrupting entire organizations. Y< u will recall also that Congress made a substantial monetary allowance to dependents in 1916. It was to avoid a repetition of these conditions that Circular No. 2, militia bureau, 191S, was issued. "The enlistment or reenlistment of married men or others having persons dependent upon them for support will be governed in the future by paragraph 834, National Guard regulations, which is now being distributed, and which is oh follows; Paragraph 33 i. "The enlistment or reenlistment of married men or of others having persons dependent upon them for support is to be discouraged and will be permitted only for some good reason in the public interest, such as for the purpose of becoming an officer. In no co;se will it be authorized when the person's family or dependents would be left without support in case he should be called into the service of the United States. Applications for such enlistments and reenlistments will be determined finally by the regimental or other higher commanding officer if there be no regimental organization. No release from service will be. extended to a married man on account of a marriage contracted after entry into the service.' "It will be noted that the above regulation places the respon i':i'ity 1 Now Is the I YC d FA1 I ANH WIN' JL A AJUU A &Jl 1 T f A& 1 I and Notions, Men's and Be Misses' and Children's C03 Gingham Dresses, Childret Serge Middy Suits, in fact for this Fall and Winter cs x' i don't forget I will save yoi buy of me.

WOMEN POLICEMEN MAKE GOOD IN LONDON London.?After ten months of trial the higher authorities of the metropolitan police have decided that women police officers havei made good, and then 100 now on duty will be rO? ! tained. They must be of good educai tion, possessing tact, kindliness and a sympathetic nature willing to work j seven hours a day for $10 a week and be ready at all times for duty. The force was recruited from the patrol workers of the National Union of Wornmb Workers employed by the commissioner in 1916 to aid in the protection of the city. They did excellent work, last November it was felt that the pressing need for them had passed and they wore disbanded. The cessation of hostilities, howevei, brought thousands of young officers from the fighting front to Lon don, an<t the roar that an orgie of dissipation might follow the rigors of life in the trenches induced the police to retain 100 picked womon for duty in the night life sections. 1 Their work was preventive in a I large measure, particular attention ;heing devoted to young girls who might be attracted to such places. So j well did they carry out the plan that 'their permanent worth has now been recognized. These police women may be seen any night in the Wost End, covering regular beats near the theaters and hotels in pairs, dressed in navy blue, with a business-like, cap and regulation whistle, they work under the diI lection of a woman chief whose head j quarters are in Scotland Yard. If a woman is accosted by some man who does not know her she can cause his arrest by appealing to the woman officer, and it frequently happens arrests are made without complaint. All women applicants for the force are trained for eight weeks in the regular duties of a policeman, but they are not sworn in as constables, and they are only liable for such duty as commissioner may direct. .'All nnr women are most earefullv I chosen," said their chief, Mrs. Stan| ley, "but wo have no place for the j 'piiulc or prowl'," o Wise Kid. In an infant school the teacher chose the miracle of the water being turned into wine as the subject of the usual Bible lesson. In telling the story she occasionally asked a few questions.

It was a great pleasure for the teachers to meet with the people of this place. Friday ! afternoon, October 10th, at 8 o'clock, and enjoy the refreshments prepared by some, of the generous supporters of school work in this community. First, the ice cream was served to the crowd in the yard; all seemed to understand what they wore out for and immediately took advantage of the opportunity to satisfy this appetite. Soon a.or the ice cream had boon soivcd, a number of couples formed a ring wid were off for a cake walk. Miss Florric Butler and Mr. Onslow Bullard were the lucky couple. The crowd then was asked to go inside for further contests. Several numbers were sold and the lucky one received a beautiful cake for the number which called for the one which got the cake. Mr. Roscoe Gore being the lucky one in this contest. jTho next contest was started by nom1 ination of several girls for the one who got the largest number of votes to be the happy recipient of the. most beautiful cake the writer has seen since the war; and ho believes that it appealed to almost all present, judging from the way they rated. Miss Florrie Butler was again lucky with Miss Sal lie Richinson, second. The cost of the cake was $85.00. The next and last contest was guessing off a box of candy which was delivered to Mr. Percy Smith. The. proceeds, $188.46, will be used for the benefit j of the school in any way the trustees may see. fit to invest it. The social (event, I feel sure was a great success all the way through and everybody seemed to enjoy th< visit to the informal reception at th< school house. I am truly glad to see the peoph taking an interest in the school af fairs. It doesn't only speak well fo the community, but your childrei will hooomo more interetsod and, con sequently, arouse within them i greater ambition for mental develop ment. The school which has been h session for1 one week only, has a- splei did start, and prospects seem to b in our favor for a good school. I^et' work together and see if we can1 make this school year a success. Geo. W. Jonew, Principal.
