NEAR COLLISION
OF TWO AUTOS
There was a near collision last
week between the cars of W. H. Price
and J. W. Sparks while they were
both driving along the public road beween
the Kingston Lake bridge and
Snow Hill. It was at night. Just as
one car was about to go across a
small bridge, the other stopped, as it
happened, and only the hub caps went
together.
As it happened there was only a
slight injury to each of the machine;-.
IN EVERY THREE

Nearly every third farm in thej
United States had at least one outomobile
on the first day of last year.
Of tho 6,448,366 farms in the United
States, 1,079,564, or 30.7 per cent, reported
having automobiles to the
number of 2,146,512. Although Iowa
led all other states in the number of
automobiles on farms, having 177,558,
Nebraska, with 104,453, showed the
highest percentage in relation to the
number of farms, heading the list
with 75.6 per cent.
Motor trucks werte reported on 131,551
farms in 1920, or abgut two farms
out of every 100 in the United States
as a whole. The number of motor
tavjeks on these farms was 130469.

BIBLE CONFERENCE
VICTORY IN CHRIST|
CLOSING MEETINGS ON THUHSDAY
OF THIS WEEK
AT CHURCH
Is it possible to live a victorious
life today? The Christian life described
in the New Testament is a
life of victory over sin. Is that possible
in twentieth century America9
This question has been considered
in the unusual series of meeting*
which began Sunday morning and
continue a-t 8:80 and 7:30 each afternoon.
All three churches are uniting
in tne meetings which are held
in the Methodist Church building.
Dr. A. J. Ramsey, of California,
for many years pastor, educator and
Bible teacner, {rives a Bible study
each afternoon at 8:80. Wednesday
night he will speak on the seventh
chapter of Romans which is one of
the best known chapters in the Bible,
the one that Christians use to give
excuse for sinning. This is the chap
tor of struggle where the men savc
Ik. docs the evil that hr does no*:
vrant to do and cannot Ho the good
that he wants to do. Dr. Ramsey
will Show that this life, which ond~

Christian life. It is 8 Christian,

to deliver a man.
Rev. R. C. McQuilkin of Phil.v;
delphia, gives a message ea^h after- j
noon. following the Bible studv. |
Last nijrht the secret of victory in i
the Christian life was discussed. |
Pan! was seen as a Christian who j
had complete victory throusrh t.h<"|
rrrace of the L^rd Jesus Christ, victory'
without struggle. and he was 3
sample of what Christ, ran d^> for n
inan. So every Christian in Conway
should he a sample of the eraoe of
the Saviour. The only wnv +0 te^
that Jesus Christ is a perfect Saviour
is by looking at the people whom
he saves. Every Christian should
be a sisrn to the unbelieving peo-;
pie. a 5ign of the miracle of tbo
Lord. This miracV> is the power to
live a righteous life and be ker>*
from running. It is always possible
to fin, but never necessary The
serret of victory is, not to struggle,
but to surrender and believe.

Messages will be given Thursday afternoon

coming of the Lord Jesus Christ
' ill be discussed at the closing meetir.g,
showing the relation of th?
great truth about the coming of
Christ 'to present dav living.
All the meetings nave been well
attended, but the beat part of them
u that many Christians are discovering
that tne Bible really door
teach that man can be freed from sin
and live a- life of joy ajid peace and
fiber* y. without worry, -and the
Bible shows exactly what man need:
to do to live such a life.
Many people want to be saved in
their sins. They want to get to
heaven but go on sinning here. Sinn
ing is having our own way. God
never can save a man in his sins.
He saves him from his sins, and
cannot d& it unless the man is ready
turn from his sins, whatever the;?
may be. Dr. Ramsey in the studies
in Romans' is pointing out that vie
torv over sin does not mean doinp
everything perfectly or as well as
it ran be done, but is a .natter o*
the heart. Sinning is always tho
voluntary choice of a free moral
being. A cow cannot sin although
she can cause da ma pre. When tho
beart is really surrendered to
Christ He gives complete victory.

THE HOBBY mrttAT.n,
MORE AMERICAN FLAX
IS URGENTLY NEEDED
Supply From Russia Has Bean
Greatly Curtailed.
Demand for Material for Manufacture
of Linens Cantinua* aa fttrona >>
Ever?New Methods and Machines
Investigated.
i
Prepared by the United States Department
of Apiculture.
The upside-down condition of things
in Russia has produced many unlooked-for
results, but none more unexpected
to the casual mind than its
effect upon the supply of flax fiber.
Before the World war Russia produced
about 80 per cent of the flax
fiber used in making linens. This supply
was cut off, while the demand for
linens continues as strong as ever.
In the United States the normal
consumption of iiax flbfcr by the spinning
mills, before the war, was about i
10,000 tons a year, most of which was
imported. To produce this amount of
liber about 00,000 acres is required. J
To help in meeting the situation ths
United States Department of Agrlcul- !
ture, through the otfice of fiber Investigations,
is encouraging the production
of flax fiber by experimenting
Threshing Flax at the Northern Great
Plains Station, Mandan, N. D.
with it In uew localities, Investigating
new methods and machines, and developing
improved strains of the fiber
flax which are taller, yield more and
tiottm' Hliar* anrl arinio ftf Ant
resistant to disease and lodging.
It lias been shown that better flax
Is produced from seed of selected
strains than frorn imported seed, such
as has been used in the past. Efforts
are being made, too, to increase tb#
seed of these selections for distribution
generally.
A special survey is being made this
season to determine the extent of di?|
ease injury to which flax Is subject,
and u> procure definite information
| needful in devising methods for comj
bating such diseases.
About 6,000 acres of fiber flax was
grown in the United States In 1920,
but the relatively low price for fiber
{ has resulted in a greatly reduced acre,
age in 1921, estimated at 8,000 acres.
i PICK FEATHERS FROM GEESE
I Many Breeders Follow Practice Some
Time Prior to Molting When
Quills Are Dry.
Many breeders of geese in the South,
and some in the Middle West and the
North pluck the feathers from the live
geese at some time prior to molting.
Some pick every six weeks during tbe
summer, and early in the fall, while
others pick only once or twice a year,
either in the spring, or in both spring
i und fall. Feathers are considered rip#
for picking when the quills are dry
j and do not contain blood. Both young
j and old geese are plucked. The average
yearly production of feathers i?
about 1.1 pounds to the goose.
The practice of plucking live geese,
i however, is considered by many breed|
ers to be cruel and Injurious. Geese
should not be plucked during the
breeding season. A stocking usually
Is placed over the head of the goose,
and part of the soft feathers on the
breast, back and sides and abdomen
are puJled. Enough soft feathers to
support the wings always should be
| left. Geese feathers are now bringing
I about 75 cents a pound for pure white;
! 65 cents for average white; and 55
cents for gray. These prices are for
good, dry feathers.
COWS FRESHENING IN FALL
ft Mea ns Maximum u/k?n
Prices for Dairy Products Ar?
at High Level.
Milk cows bred to freshen in tha
fall mean maximum production when
butter, butterfat and milk prices are
better than they are in the summer. It
also transfers the big job of milking,
handling the milk, and caring for the
calves to a time when the farmer ia
least busy. Help Is easier to obtain
during the fall and winter and more
time Is available to devote to cows.
Tows freshening In the fajl can be fed
grain and made to produce better than
they do In summer.

AGAIN MOLEST
, CHAS. PRESCOTT
Charles Prescott, the aged white
man who recently had to shoot two
white boys who were entering his
premises, has again been molested by
people unknown to him passing by his
Rlace and hailing him at different
ours of the night.
On several nights last week it is
alleged that parties went to the corner
of his fence and called Prescott,
asking if he wanted to come out
again and do some more shooting. It
does not appear that on these last occasions
the parties have left the pub-'
lie road or attempted to cross his
fence.
Prescott is still confined to his bed
and unable to get about.

SOMETHING ABOUT
CLEAN UP SQUAD
i Columbia, S. C.?More than 3,000
disabled service men have received at|
tention from the government as a
| result of the Cleanup Squad campaign,
according to Joe Sparks, laison
! officer of the American Legion, recently
appointed to have charge of
this work by Morris Lumpkin, state
commander. The cleanup program
was begun August 15 by the Veteran
Dn>>aoii fVirt Poi) Prnoc Qml tViA A mnr.
' ican Legion and it is confidently ex|
pected that at least 7,000 men will be
I taken care of when all counties have
been visited by the squads on November
1.
; The squad will make seventeen
' stops in South Carolina. The stops
| yet to be made are at Darlington,
Marion, Conway, Rock Hill, Laurens
I and Spartanburg.
The squad will be at Conway on
j October 13, 14 and 15. The counties
to be served at this stop will be Horry
at court house.
"I want to appeal," said Mr. Sparks,
"to all employers of labor in South
I Carolina to give former service men
I a chance to appear before the cleanup
squad when the squad reaches their
county.
"The purpose of the campaign is to
take up with service men all claims
against the government as the result
of military service, to cut out all unnecessary
delay in getting papers
pioperly filled out and sent in. in
brief, the government agency is being
brought to the man instead of having
I the man come to the government
agency.
"Under the Sweet bill, effective on
September 1, the three agencies that
deal with the service men, namely,
the United States Public Health Service,
the Federal Board, of Vocational
Rhabilitation and the Bureau of
War Ki?k Insurance were combined
under one head which is known as
the United States Veterans' Bureau.
The cleanup squad is composed of
experts from the three departments
of the Veterans' Burean, namely, examining
doctors, compensation and
insurance men and vocational men.
If an ex-service man has a disability
that was incurred in the service, or
Aggravated by service and presents
himself to the cleanup squad, a compensation
claim is lied out for him.
A physical examination is made and
application for vocational trapping
made out. If the claimant is foftnd
to be in need of hospital treatment
. ii Miji III 111 i n i,i1 i n u.
ie is sent to the hospital provided! <
ie will take same. If he has a vo- il
ational handicap and it is shown
hat it results from military service 1
he claimant is given vocational
raining.
"If the claimant has a disability
md it is not shown that it is the
'esult of service, and the man feels
ike it is the result of service, he is
hen instructed and assisted in souring
affidavits proving that the
lisabflity is the ressult of service,
n every instance the government
rives the claimant the benefit of the
loubt. In those cases where men
tave previously filed claims and
iave been unable to establish same,
he squad will assist claimant to
:ompletee his claim. In all cases it
s imperative that every man bring
iloug- all communications that he ha.)
received from the government relitive
to his claim. In many instants
the squad can clear up questions
;hat have been hanging fire. The
government does not wish to take
ssue with a man relative to giving
dm aid uoder the Veterans' Bureau.
)ut it is absolutely necessary thar
?ach man's claim be based on injury
llii. _ _
n military service.
"As stated, the squad will make
seventeen stops in SouUh Carolina
ft is felt that every man who has
i claim againrt the government can
neet the squad and tret same finally
id justed. while taking up claims
b^'ith the cleanup squad men will be
jiven me-al requests* and lodging requests
if it is found necessary for
;he man to remain over night.
IYansportation wHJ be issued for
claimant to return home.
^RELATIVE cr>ST.
In the location of a good country

STATE SUPREME
COURT CONVENES
Many Important Cases Coming
Before this Tribunal
MANY ARE OF~
LOCAL INTEREST
Among Them the Celebrated
Bigham Case Tried in Flor
ence Recently
Columbia.?This week the South
Carolina Supreme Court started its
fall term and a number of important
cases will be heard. The court will
be in session far into November.
One of the unusual le.{fal situations
f /ia 4 V% /\ a/vi i ...Ml l./t il? a 4 m \ m
vi.' iitvx vuc luun ?iii we uiui ciiidiiHing
the two Sandel case*?, one bcinp;
appealed by the .state, the defend,
and the other appealed by the. plaintiff.
J. O'Neal Sandel, of Calhoun
county, sued the state in two cases
for $60,000 each for the death of his
two daughters which, he alleged, was
due to the use of typhoid serum furnished
by the State Board of Health.
In one case Sandel won a verdict of
|25,000. In the other the state won.
Both are on Appeal.
Another interesting case on appeal
is that of Charles Corbett, Orangeburg
county man who was charged
with murder. Corbett was acquitted
of the charge of murdering Bryan
Salley, for which he was tried in September,
1920. He now alleges that
on the ground of former jeopardy he
cannot be tried for the murder of Julian
Cooper and Hugh Fanning, both
of whom he killed at the same time,
he killed Bryan Salley in March, 1920
Corbett alleges that the three men
were killed in one and the same act
all constituting one offense, and that
he cannot be charged with three separate
murders. The case will be
heard by an en Uanc session of the
court next Monday, the next befoio
the regular term starts. All of the
circuit judges will sit with the supreme
court on this case.
Still another interesting case on
appeal is that of the state against
t.h<* Pn1m#*ttrk Mfit innfll RnnW nf Pa.
lumbia, involving the charge of the
bank against the state of the amount
of two checks, on which the bank
failed to realize because of the liquidation
of a bank at Greenwood.
Still another appeal to be heard by
the court is tliat of Edmund D. Bigham,
now in the death house of the
penitentiary, charged ' with having
murdered his brother, and also
charged with the murder of his mother,
his sister and his sister's two
adopted children.
The appeal of J. E. Harris, Columbia
dentist, from the decision ot the
lower court, which sustained the state
board of dental examiners in their action
in disbarring Dr. Harris will l>e
heard at the fall term of the court.
it is probable that the appeals of
S. J. Kirby and Jesse Gappins, Uvo
of the trio found guilty of the murder
of William Brazell, Columbia taxidriver,
will also come before the court
at this term.
