THURSDAY, JAN. 8, 1920 Nobody knows how long the prices .of everything will remain high. <i it is not in human nature for man to be satisfied. That is the reason why we are all constantly trying to improve o Horse sense is a good thing. Yet some people, who apparently have plenty of it regarding some thing; , fail to employ it in regard to others. ? Those who own automobiles in this county should study their instruction books and try to learn fill they can about the machine. Ignorance will put a car in the repair shop quicker than anything else. o The price of leaf tobacco is likely to be high during 1920. There is ev-ery reason why it should as we look into the future. There is of course a chanco that we nipy be disappointed in our expectations, y v O 1 One of the costliest things we know of is a disagreement between landlord and tenant. There should be a better way to dispose of these troubles than is now provided by the statutes. The trouble in Mexico goes on and on as the years pass by. One more thing which is apparent is that this country must, sooner or later, take the burden of teaching that country some sense. So far the influenza has not returned in epidemic form although th?' fears of the people were excited an 1 doctors made predictions both way^ Fear has a great deal to do in mal< ing people sick some times, but il did not bring the disease back in thb particular case. There are numbers of fanners ir "Horry County who still know nothing of the boll weevil, and they are no making any plans for fighting tin insect. There is great need of { campaign to enlighten all of the grov crs of cotton everywhere as to wha the weevil is and the best ways o fighting its ravages. o Automobiles are multiplying at i rapid rate in this county.

W. Doyle, bf Galiv*nt* F*rry Township, owned a' dog which he valued highly, but the dog became sick and was about to die last week, Arhen he was killed to relieve him of Ws suffering. This dog was bitten Dy a rattlesnake within the last two years and is said to have been snake Ditten about twice before that. After the dog had been killed three live makes were found in his body. One )f these snakes had pides like a *attlesnake, another was a solid red :olor, like some snakes are, while mother seemed to represent a grass make. One of the snakes wjus seven nches long, another twenty-two inches, and still the third one was twenty>ix inches long*. The one with pides lad plain* signs of rattlers on one rnd, and all throe had the appearance f eyes and mouth, though apparoncy not used. Such things have boen told but lot believed. These snakes were '.ttachcd to the kidneys of the dog, iccording to the boys who found hem. There is no doubting the word of he people who found those strange mrasites, and there is something bout this that ought to bo studied y scientists and doctors, for if this .'ojjld occur in the case of a dog, ,'hy would it not in the case of a hulan being, and in fact, the Herald as hoard several times that it is he same when a snake bites the huian animal, DEATH OF MRS.

Mexico City.?Mexican women are preparing to lake a hand in the affairs of the Mexican republic. They intend first to eliminate sociul and industrial evils and later to make a fight for political equality. This is the program of the Mexican Feminist Council, a national organization with headquarters in Mox'Vj City. I The council does not believe that the mass of Mexican women are at present prepared for complete suffrage but the council hope; eventually to make them a vilal political force.

THo 1 next step, said Senorita Torres, wi'l be organization of women workers in industry to demand fair and equal treatment at the hands of their employers. They will not countenance any bitter sex war whkh has characterized the feminist movement in some European countries, but except cooperation from the men. The council intends to bring the Mexican women's movement in contact with similar organizations in other countries and to work with the women of the world for peace, department anil anti-imperialism. Senorita Torres predicts that Mex- \ ican women will create a new era of amicable relations and a more complete usderstanding between Mexico and the United States. Later, she. said, the Feminist Council intends to propose the formation of a Latin American union to bring about a closer friendship, culturaly, industrially and politically between Mexico and the countries of South and Central America. o It is discouraging to try to keep ' -lean premises with clouds of dust always blowing in.
