IV -t* ? , CHOLERA RAGES IN ARMENIA Devastating Scenes of War Between Turks andArmenians. J Constantinople.?Cholera is spread ing throughout that part of Armenia which was the scene of the war between the Turlis and Aremnian* last winter, according to a dispatch received here from Tiflis and forwarded by Paxton Hibben, of Indianapolis, lnd. Mr. Hibben is a member of the group of representatives of the Near East Relief ami recently visited Armenia before starting northward through Russia to Moscow. He writes that the -i--- * - - vuvmciu uue 10 iuck ot toodstufts | and the consequent reduced resist-1 ence of the population to the inroads of disease. He adds: , "An average of 25 aged persons' and young children are dying daily in the streets of Alexandropol from both cholera and hunger. The bod# ies are being loaded in the wagons which are continually making the rounds of the streets in search fo>' corpses. "The American Near East Relief is taking additional hundreds of virtually naked children into it* already overcrowded orphanage* I and housing them under open sheds until building can be obtained. "There ure GS registered cases of cholera in Erivan and 141 at Alexandropol and the deaths are averaging 20 per cent of the cases. A?> Armenian physician of the Near East Relief at Alexandropol has jus', died of the disease. Two building: of the American orphanages there are quarantined on account of cholera cases. ' This results in confining in the buildings 1,200 children ami several American relief workers. "At Karaklis there are four cholera cases among r>Nf> orphans under American care but the epidemic anionic the children is being at lea. i held in check. "The homeless inhabitants of 140 towns razed by the Turks, who are now camping i 11 the fields ami swarming in the city streets, are without the slightest hope of assistance from the impoverished government in whose paper moneyO,000 rubles is equivalent to one cent:. "The Armenian foreign minister, Ascanas Mooravian, and the minister of supplies, Sarkis Srabeonian. recently awaited on a delegation ot 25 Americans headed by Charles V. Vickrey, general secretary of the Near Kast, Relief, to appeal for American aid to see Armenia through the winter. They stated that the government was trying desperately to obtain grain from Persia but that the Persian go('k eminent wars becoming alarmed at the exportation of foodstuffs anl was putting an embargo on its exports, thus cutting off the onh nearby source of supply. "The present crops nL Armenia were sown in May after the departure of the Turks and in conse <iuence of this latr planting the grain is stunted. The government estimates that it can not possibly, even with a minimum consumption, supply the population with food beyond January next. "The housing conditions also are appalling, owing to the dcslruet'o i of the many villages. Last winter the roofs of houses throught Armenia were burned for fuel. This leaves many occupied houses with gaping roofs which will be open to the winter snows while the government estimates that 000,000 people are homeless." JOHNSON REPLIES ABOUT SCHOOL Editor Herald:? Please ailow me to reply to Mr. George Johnson in regard to the school house at Horry. First the trustees locat d a sito on a little sand hill of about tw? acrejj and a bay, south and east, and a branch of same, and the patrons of the school petitioned th> county board to please locate the site on the public road, near Horry, and Mr. Johnson signed this, then the trustees wrote them up a petition asking for the sand hill an I Mr. Johnson signed it, so it see?rt? as if he "don't know .iust what he wants like he was with the stoc'; law and free range he did nol seem to know which lie wanted until he heard it was stock law then he took his gun . and walked out in the field and shot and killed his wife's cow her father gave her and he has made as broad a mistake ol his survey as he did with his cow he said four miles north two mile > south which makes six miles north and south. I would like to ask Mr. Johnson if he remembers seeing p. rail road running north and south of which we only get four miles tax end the trustees would like to know where the other two miles is when we would liko for Mr. Johnson to please measure from Mr. John Squires to the E. S. Baker place and see if he dont find his A mistake east and west and so far as running the district, that is up to the board and the site on which to build and the side Mr. Johnson seems to be on has signed paper.s to that effect; and as for the charge against Mr. E.

H ?A unique feature of the gradual rise of women's influence in Japan until their position now is slowly approximating that of Amenican and British women is that tne.v are giving up smoking, just at the time when great comment has arisen over the increase of smoking among their sisters in America and England, according to Dr. T. H. Haden, dean of the theological department of Kwansei Gaquin. a mission college in Japan, who attended sessions here of the Pan-Pacific Educational Conference as one of the empire's representatives, "Formerly all classes of women in Japan smoked in public as well as in their homes," Dr. Jaden said. "The influence of the West has almost stopped this custom, although it is to the interest of the government to foster it. as tobacco is a government monopoly." Idea of Home. Dr. II ad en said that a new word for home?"katei"?had been coined in Japan to express the meaning and idea of home 1 ifc? in Western civilization as it is being learned by the Japanese. "The changing condition of Japanese women is only begun, but it is proceeding with a rapidity and in>11 ity which are very significant and lopeful." lie said. The ^Japanese bnmuago had : word exmo -in?.* houso ?nd household, but they bad no contention of home life in thr Occident, where women are on an equal footing with men. This is now expressed by 'katei,' with the new appreciation of home as a thing to be shared by ! us!iand and \sifo and the uradual rise ...?.... * wi vni ua);uni:ni; w ir:n ! i# til'* tion of their American and British sisters." Dr. Hadcn said that the city popu1 at.ion of Japan is increasing* thirteen tinm as fast as that of the country, d;.m to the change of industry from .Agriculture to manufacturing. More than 1.000.000 are engaged in factory vork and in excess of half of these are under twenty years of age, he said. "A significant and interesting indication of the chance in prop-res* in Japan now is Hie faet thai while I he Japanese women' retain tiie kimono is Hioir chief attire, they havo discarded the obis?the folded square of doth worn on the back-?and over their kimonos many of the women now wear a full, divided rkirt, which tic* around the wrist with a wide w^h and hanging at the Mo,'' T-).

Home economics of the United States Department of Agriculture recommends that if only a limited amount may be spent in furnishings, it is wise to economize elsewhere so that a good mattress .and springs may be purchased. The mattress should first be protected by an unbleached muslin slip which can be washed occasionally. Next comes a light-weight quilted pad, also washable, for further protection and smoothness. This can be Bought ready-made or made of muslin .and cotton batting, or an old litrht colonic quilt or cotton blanket may be used. The quality of the sheets and pillow cases depends on how much one ha? to invest. Home-made sheets anil pillow cases have the advantage of being fitted to a particular bed, and often the materials wear bettor, but ready-m,ade ones of good quality arc sometimes more economical to buy. Sheets should be from 2-1 to 30 inches wider and longet than the mattress, so that the ends and ?ides can be generously tucked in and the top of* the upper one turned down to keep the blankets clean. The hem at the top of a sheet should be at least 2V; inches and at the bottom from % to 1 inch., Machine hemstitching makefe a pretty finish for piilowca.^es and the wider hem of a sheet. Seamles-* Uibing car. be bought for pillowcases. Soft, fluffy blankets, containing a large proportion of good duality wool re geverallv considered more comfortable and also most durable if given proper care. Many reliable manufacturers state the percentage of wool, on a card attached to the blanket. Cotton blankets, v. hen new arc in many cases as warm as wool, but they tend to become matted with wear and washing and ccnsequently ess warm. If a blanket is chosen with a colored border the border houid be of the same quality wool as the rest of the blanket. Comfortables of word or cotton batting covered first with cheesecloth ::nd then with an outer covering of pretty light weight material are generally needed in the severe weather. O'd-fashioned pieccd quilts are often 'interesting, but not very warm, con u'evii r: their weight. Striped dimity bedspreads with pillow shams to natch are deservedly popular because 4hey ere dainty, easy to launder, durable and inexpensive. Having two preads permits a bed to be kept al-j ways fresh. o ?r VSE FIUELKSS COOKER IN RAISING HRKAD DOl'GH j In very warm or very col;! weather it is often difficult to maintain an f en temperature in which to allow i bread dough to rise. I1* a sponge i<; sot at niirht >t should be kept at ordinary room temperature (fiO to To degrees F.). depending on how long !' is to stand, says 'he United States Department of Agriculture Wher v*cr r. d'>ugh has been prepared fa. ' stinrvuihed fro""1 a ^nonge). the temperature should be fairly warmbetween SO and S(? degrees- K. A good way to assure an even temperature in either c;:se, it is suggested, is to set the sponge or dough in the (ireless cooker, using a thermometer to start with, to determine the temperature when the dough or sponge is put in. ? o COPY.

JNWAY, S. C., OCT, 6, 1921 Heat the Weevil. Some of the farmers could not be lieve two years ago th.*?t the bol weevil existed elsewhere than in th< imaginations of the experts at Clcv son College. They may have though that there lived a few in the state o Texas. They did not believe that >ucl an animal would ever exist hove, foi their actions proved it. Such a be lief was not the general rule anion} the farmers of Horry County, but w< dare say that it was the general ruh to discredit the reports of the do struction that might be wrought bj the weevils. It was mainly because they had never seen the effects o the weevils. They had never been ii u country where the weevils had takei hold. Seeing is believing, according to the wisdom of the ancients. At last the farmers of this count} have seen, and now they know Others have seen too. Others besidt farmers are affected. The effect o the weevils on the cotton crop of thi; county this year is enough to prov< all that experts have said. There i; no longer any doubt about what tin weevils rnn mui ??-:n ?

Now that the farmers and the bus' ness men. too. lvtve- seen what th? boll weevil wiU actually do, it is hit*! time that ihev took stops to try t< remedy the situation that arises. Foi in other sections of the South, where the holl weevil has spread, farmers have turned to other tilings to mak< money, .and the business men have helped them along to do it. Thoj have als> 'earned now t"? raise mur* cotton in spite of the weevil?. learning the habits of the w^cv'l :v > how to head him off in the raising <v cotton they have succeeded in malum '.money from cotton ,iust the c and what other men havs dv(,e me. can do again.
