Piedmont Action
A deitructive hailftom that «w«tH
of the ScvthWMt late Friday af-
wrtnafht eatiaruted daaara of
390*000 at Gluck mill village, near
.A»dar«on. - . . " t.
Early estimates plated the damage
mi $10,000 to $15,000, but a detailed
wnrtey revealed the loes at a much
larger figure. No reports of injury
to persona have been made. Some live
atock suffered from the stcrm..
The hailstorm came almoat with-
•vmt warning, riding on the. wings of
m brisk wind out of the southwest and
struck the mill village at 3:40 o’clock,
to laat 12 minutes. The path of the
"Storm was said to have been a mile
*tn width. The course cl the storm
• shifted to the north after swooping
j'-over the village.
Hailstones, some a s large as tennis
balls, shattered window panes at^the
"Cluck plant and village cottage* as
"though in the pathway of machine
‘Rttn fire. Both on the west and north
-aide of buildings window panes were
splattered, while the ’southern and
was tern windows of dwellings and
buildings were unhurt. .
The sawtooth skylights of the mill
proper were riddled by hailstones as

the ioof with a deafening roar. A
largo portion of the roof of the mill
will hara to be replaced, a/ well as the
Tools of” “several laifr* warehouses.
The same will be the 9ase with 60
cottages, whose wooden shingled roofs
were splintered.
One item of damage to the mill,
whictrwtti reach a considerable figure,
was the havoc to stock in process of
manufacture. „ This was damaged
when the,roof was perforated and a
deluge of hailstones crashed down up*
on machinery in operation.
The damage to the machinery
will not be. great. The mill will
operatkn because of the storm.
More than 5,000 window panes
large and small, were demolished by
the storm, including those of~lhe plant
and cottages,. At least 00 per cent,
of the panes in the mitl roof were
shattered. * - v\ • . ^
Other damage by the storm was to
grain orcpg in that .vicinity. The
tender shoots were beaten to the
ground. Automobiles caught out in
the storm were damaged, the tops iri
particular being cut to pieces. Win
dows in the street cars operating be
tween the business section and the
mill village were broken in the fury
of falling hajl.
The storm also caused considerable'
damage nt Spartanburg, Clinton, New
berry, Laurens and other places, in
the Piedmont section. ~ Reports of
damage were also received from towns
and cities in North Carolina. At
Laurens, Mrs. M. A. Riddle, mother
of Misses Ruth and Edna Riddle,
teachers in the Barnwell high school,
was returning from Clinton with bet
daughtc.’-, Miss Sarah Nell Riddle,
and Miss Margaret McCravey. The
top of the car was perforated by the
hailstones and Mrs. Riddle’s arm was
beaten black and blue by the pellets
ss she held a ccat over the girls as a
protection. TW windshield was
broken and a piece of glass fell on
Miss McCravey’s foot, cutting it
slightly. Mias Sarah Riddle visited
her sisters in Barnwell a short time
a^j and has a number of friends here
who are glai^ to know that she

For one thing wd should be gratq-

send to New York next fall an air

with room for 100 passengers. That
will be one^ good lesson.
The
French Academy of Sci
ences, a most serious body, says
that Margoulis, a French engineer,
has perfected a helicopter flying
machine. Such a machine, enabling
you to fly and rise directly from
the ground, would give the Inven
tor wealth unlimited and would b«j
the best invention since the start of
the Wright Brothers". With a heli

South Carolina, blue laws by selling
soft diinks and ice cream on Sundays
in trials before Magistrate George W.

The 30-second period of deliberation
in each of the two cases was probably
a wedd’s record for speed. Over all,
the first trial consumed three minutes
and the second four minutes. V
When the jury serving at the Second
trial came out after its 30-second ses
sion of deliberation, J. Edgar Lewis,
one of the jurors, looked at hfs watch
and remarked to the spectators, “Gen
tlemen, we are sorry to have kept you

Gova n News.
The jazz period in dances and in
morals is passing in Christendom
and pagan lands. Turkey is sup
pressing immoral dances; Japan is
dialing seriously with the social
evil; “all governments,” says a re
port, “are occupying themselves
with the tasld of checking immor
ality.” .
That is gratifying, important
news, and then m< % important is
news that tells of the discovery by
British scientists of a new vitamin,
1,000 time* more powerful than any
known hitherto. It will cure rick
ets, and, most interesting, it seems
to have the effect of ultra-violet
light. „
The new health food Is called
'*chlosterr»| H and contains what is
practically the pare vitamn D, a
substance called ergoaterol. It can
be made cheaply, and an ounce of
it would be (nough to keep you
healthy from birth to death.

.HARDENED
Many people
about their blood-vesesels, which
they believe are becoming “hard
ened.”. Of course, in the great
majority of instances, they are
wrong, as most non-professional
diagnose* rare. v s - .
Hardened^ arteries are almost as
common to advanced age as is gray
hair. When I discover hardening
of the arteries in a patient over
sixty-five years of age, and of nor
mal build, I advise him to forget
it. By »*ftormaL build” I mean one
who has not accumulated abnor
mal weight, with consequeintly bur
dened heart. Fat old customers do
not need treatment for the arte
ries, but need advice in diet and
exercise. It is only in the com
paratively young patient, that I
look on hardened arteries as a dis
eased condition.
In such cases, violations of the
law of right living make up the
chief causes of arteriorsclerofis.
Too much tobacco, tea, coffee, alco
hol, and highly-seasoned foods, poi
son the blood-vessels, either hard
ening them, or litenflTy’ rotting
them out—if they give way under
the strain, instead of becoming
hard in an effort to resist the over
loading—just as " the blacksmith’s
right arm grows harder from its
increased labor. In such a case, I’d
^rather have the vessels harden
'than to become soft and more
liable to rupture under strain.
The treatment must depend upon
the judgment of the experienced
physkiap. A case of syphilis de
mands specific treatment: the alco
holic nuit charge his habit, or pav
the extVerqe penalty.; remember, al-
