The Rev. McGeachy, of the Presbyterian church of Whiteville, N. C., was the preacher on this occasion, and. gave an excellent sermon from tlie text: "Take heed unto thyself." The opening chorus was sung by the girls of the tenth grade. The remainder of the music was in charge of a choir made up of members from the various choirs of the churches of the town.

I * HENDRICKS-APPLEBY Of interest in many places throughout the State is the Hendricks-Appleby wedding, solemnized in the Ancient City Baptist church, Thursday night. On this occasion, .Miss Grace Adele Appleby, young daughter of Dr. and Mrs. A. P. Appleby, became the bride of Mr. Evan Bryant Hendricks, formerly of Conway, S. C., but for the past year a resident of this city. The bride was charming in her wedding gown of white net over ivory satin, and becoming hat of white silk braid, with wreath of orange blossoms. She carried an arm bouquet of white carnations. The maid of honor, Miss Mary Meadows, wore French blue crepe d echine, and a hat of white. Her flowers were shasta daisies. Anna Coomes was the dainty little flower girl, and wore white organdy. Mr. Harold Wolfe was best man, and the ushers were Mr. Gale Traxler and Mr. Emory Johns. Wedding music was played by Mrs. Arthur Manucy, organist of the church, and Miss Irene Minter, soprano soloist, sang very sweetly, O. Promise Me (De Koven.) Rev. A. E. Calkins, pastor, officiated, using- the impressive ring ceremony. Following the wedding there was a formal reception for relatives and intimate friends at the home of the bride's ' parents on Carrera street, and the ] bride and groon left on the evening train for, Miami, Palm Beach and i other noints in the southern section of the State on a week's honeymoon trip. On their return they will be at , home to their friends at No. lfi Seville j street.?Copied from Jacksonville, ] Fla. paper. , ... BABY DAY SUCCESS 1 Baby Day in the Conway Baptist Sunday school was ciuite a success, i having sixty-two babies present. ; The mothers were seated on the platform with their babies and with : the exceptions of a few shouts from 1 the babies, everything was very quiet. Some time during the exercises the photographer got a snap shot at the babies and mothers but this being ] done from the gallery, no one knew when it was done. The program was entirely in the hands of the babies and was carried j out to perfection* . Mrs. McMoore, the Cradle Roll j Superintendent, called the roll of the j babies and made a short talk to the ; mothers. As a result of the effort made to < '.ret the babies we had forty-nine in < 'ho mother-bahv class; ninety-seven j in the primnrv department and for- j tv-seven in the junior department. The total attendance of the school j was 33 1-3 per cent above that of the 1 church membership, which we consider a pood record. ; This was our first Sunday without 1 a pastor, Mr. Gordon having1 left us 1 on the first. It is hoped that the at- i tendance will continue to be good during the time we are without a pastor, ) hut hope that we will soon secure another pastor. 1 J. C. Spivey, Supt. < o j S. S.

FIRE LOSSES PREVENTABLE Smoking Has First Place Among the Causes of Fires Clemson College.?A few weeks ago the attention of Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance Associations was ca'ied to the campaign for fire prevention carried on by the Darlington County Farmers' Mutual Fite Insuiance Association. Again this matter is urged j upon their attention, by Dr. W. H. Mills, Field Agent in Agricultural Finance, who cites the following facts about fire losses. The actuarial Bureau of the National Board of Fire Underwriters tabulates the American Fire Loss for 1821, at $495,400,012. Since 1918 this destruction has increased nearly 40 percent. "It would seem," says an insurance editor, "that the present generation is committed to the burning rather than to the building of America." Matches?Smoking has first place among fire-originating causes with a total loss of $25,992,033 and was the originating cause of the largest loss reported from eighteen different states. Five states, including South Carolina, reported "Defective Chimneys and Flues" as the originating cause of their largest fire loss. It was exactly this situation that the Darlington Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Association set out to remedy, for investigation had shown that 80 per cent of their fire losses occurred from defective flues. T OH 1. ~ J A- / 4 1 J ^ 1 1 in oi HLUU3S out 01 me tne causes of the l&fgest fire losses are regarded as "strictly preventable." "Since it is no lonjwer open to dispute tl;at more tliai/75 percent of these millions of fire losses with reasonable caution might hav^l Conserved to useful employment," says insurance paper already quoted. "These figures considered as a whole, constitute a visualization of the heedlessness of a considerable part of the American public. As such, it is a sorry and ominous picture." t "Surely," Dr. Mills concludes, "the o flw Qiifnlnt That Docs Not Affect the Hestf Because of Us tonic and laxative effect, LAXATV It liROMO QUININK is better than ordinarj and does not cause nervousness no* ..'op in head.

C., Jun'e 4.?The formal opening of the Pee Dee bridge between Marion and Florence will be held June 14th. The ceremony will include a symbolic marriage between Miss Florence and Mr. Marion elaborately staged and participated in by representatives of all surrounding communities, an address delivered by Gov. Tlios. G. McLeod and an oldfashioned basket picnic. The undertaking is a joint county affair, but is of State importance and is of interest to both Carolinas as this bridge marks the completion of one of the most important links in several important highways converging at this point, including the Great Coastal Highway from New York to Jacksonville; the Stonewall Highway from Chicago to Myrtle Beach and the highways connecting Columbia and Camden. Movements are on fdot to make the fourteenth a holiday in both counties, requesting all places of business to close and take advantage of this opportunity of launching a great community movement to advertise and develop Eastern South Carolina. M iss Maribelle Waters, daughter of | W. M. Waters,-Mayor Of Florence, iias been chosen to represent Florence County as the bride and a more fitting' choice could not have been made as Miss Waters is a young lady of beauty, talent and charm and is a member of one of the old families of this section. The choice of the groom has not been announced but will be a representative young man from Marion. The attendants are being selected from other communities in the county. Important State and county officials and officers of all good road organisations are especially urged to attend, "he committee in charge also emphasizes the importance of bringing a Full lunch basket. o COUNTING BOLL WEEVILS , New Information Card Tells How to Determine Infestation, Clemson College.?"The time to be?in poisoning is determined by the amount of square infestation in the field," says Prof. A. F. Conradi, Entomologist, in Information Card% No. 27. "How to Determine Boll Weevil Infestation," just issued by the Extension Service as a simple practical nruide to farmers in determining tjie percentage of weevil infestation and therefore the need for poisoning. Weevil infestation is rarely uniform in any field, farm, or community. The weevil is greatly affected by weather and the time of its appear ance in injurious numbers varies with the seasons; and since poisoning is to kill weevils, it is obvious that thereiis no use to poison until there are wee vils. Hence the need for an easy method of estimating infestation. Information Card No. 27 tells how to select the places in which to make counts, how to count infested squares ind how to calculate the percentage ">f infestation.

R. H. W., Simpsonville. I would not advise you to allow the clover to mature. It should be worked into the soil before it matures. If the land is very fertile and the vines ire growing very rapidly, then the clover would do no serious harm, hut under ordinary conditions I think the soil around the vines should he cultivated during May and June and in fact through the summer. Does mulching strawberry plants ! M nM., m?*11/ if U ilio (rmu* Ill till}' y tiy iniri ivic ttii.ii k ii v ^iv? > of the plants or their fruit bearing? R. H. W., Simpsonville. The nrulching of strawberry plants prevents the runners from taking root around the plants but does not interfere in any way with the production of bloom buds on the old plant. Tn fact, the mulch is considered beneficial as it retains the moisture and thereby encourages the plants to develop properly in the same way that thorough cultivation encourages growth and development. Please recommend a lawn grass mixture for Piedmont sandy soils.? F. E. M., Raleigh. In the Piedmont region and as far south as Columbia on sandy or sandy loam soil we recommend Kentucky Bluegrass, Herdgrass, White Clover, and Bermuda. For large lawns that can not be watered and where a number of trees are, this combination of grasses will give a good turf throughout the year. | Is it all right to eat lettuce that has been dusted with Paris Green? ? E. T. H., Columbia. If lettuce is properly washed before it is eaten there will be no pos'1 1 - -1 - f _ ! i. - si 1)1 r cnance 01 injury to anyone eaiing it.

Holliday, of Gallivants Perry, has come out the winner of two medals in the Marion graded school this year. One of the medals was the one offered by Mrs. Nellie7C. Ellerbe for the best short story. This medal was presented by J. VV. Blackwell. The other medal was that offered by the U n i t e d Daughters of the Confederacy for the best essay on General Robert E. Lee. This medal was presented by H. S. McCandlish, Esq. Miss Emma Holliday is a sister of Miss Flora May Holliday, who won out in a statewide contest for Queen of Palmafesta in Columbia, in 1921. o? poison, kills boll weevil when the cotton is young and before squaring begins. At that time the weevil is a bud or surface feeder. The value of killing weevils at that time has not yet been fully determined, while experimental evidence is wanting that these materials have important value when applied after square formation has begun. Please advise me regarding a brood sow which has irotten fat and gone blind.?T. L. A. Dillon. This frequently happens when sows are highly fitted. This condition may be helped somewhat by reducing the ration, thus allowing the sow to lose some of the surplus fat. Usually, however, after folds of skin cover the eyes and the sows are rendered blind they do not recover their vision. Even I after the sow is blind she may be a J irnod ni'ftHlinor T Viava Kfuin nrfoof l\r I 0VV?> {' - ? ??"*< givwv.jr surprised to find how well they find their way to the feed trough and how careful they are with their pigs. What is a good laying mash for hens? A. C. L., Anderson. One of the best laying mashes consists of equal parts of wheat bran middlings, corn meal, ground oats: meat scraps. How much nitrate of soda should 1 apply to my lawn, and how often? Use about 150 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre. A second application may be made in six or eight weeks after the first if the grass appears to need it. Never apply nitrate of soda during very dry weather as it will seriously injure the grass, if not kill it. How can I make my nydran>*?as j retain their color??Mra. V. J. L., Camden. I think the most practical way to have hydrangeas assume or retain the blue color is by the use of iron filings, such as may be found at a blacksmith's shop. These iron filings can in no way injure the plant and may i be applied about one to two handsfuls of filings around each plant; there is no necessity for working them into the. soil. Some growers, I believe, have used alum to advantage to induce the plants to retain their blue color, but I have had better success from the use of iron J\lings. HOW TO STOP COLDS AND COUGHS , Combination of Old Well-known Family Medicines; Horehound, Mullein, and Tar Most Reliable Do what we may it is very difficult to improve on our grandmothers when it comes to relieving Colds, Coughs, Sore Throat, La Grippe, Pneumonia and similar ,bronchial and pulmonary troubles. Tbey seem to have the secret of success. Horehound, Mullein and Tar so popular in the old days for such troubles have been scientifically compounded to do the same effective work it has always done. Murray's Horehound Mullein and Tar, composed of the same ingredients used constantly by our grandmothers breaks up the phlegm, heals the soreness, soothes the inflammation and clears the air passages giving quick relief. It is pleasant and does not constipate. Ask your druggist for a 35c bottle or write Murray Drug Co., Columbia, S. C., today.?Adv. Keep up with t County.
