Wild pitch, Wa^hingUn, March 25.—Approxi mately $1,000,000 was raised for the Waim Springs, Ga., foundation for infantile paralysis through the presi dent’s birthday balls. Colonel Henry L. Doherty, chaii- man .of the national committee for the balls, said tonight financial re ports from more than 4,000 communi ties in which the benefit dances were held were now being audited and the fund would be turned over to Mr. Roosevelt personally, at a date to be set by the White House.

Thirteen buildings in Rome, although outside the boundaries, enjoy extra territorial rights; these include build ings housing the congregations or offi cers necessary for the administration of the Holy see. “The annual spring and summer forecast of the Dutch Weather Pro- phet is past due,’’ he said yesterday, ‘and that as he has responded to several personal inquiries as to the outlook foi favorable .conditions of precipitation especially this year, he feels that no fuither delay should be caused any one, for inasmuch as his winter forecast of last October, has in a leasonable measure been fulfilled, the present forecast is a sequel to it. “The winter season,” he observes, "has been accompanied with very peculiar phenomenon in that aithough temperatures broke, some records in approaching the low periods, the ground has not been frozen to any materia! depth and low temperatures were equalized b:th in high and low latitudes in the State—the cold wave of February 10th showing around 13 degrees in Columbia and 14 on the Georgetown coast, with 16 (unusual ly low) at Charleston. Newberry, us ually having a difference of six de grees 'ower, showed about the same as Columbia. However, these addi tions are only the prelude of colder winters to follow next season (1934- 35), as we are now entering the cycle of cold winters, having passed out of that period in 1905. Spring and Summer. ‘Spring, and summer months are now to be accompanied with an in creased quantity of precipitation as compared to 1933. Indeed, the river systems of the State will be in over flow conditions at frequent periods during the planting and harvesting seasons. The Dutch Weather Prophet would advtse too much depend- placed upon gathering The has Trot - ence to be crops planted in bottom lands, basis of this forecast seldom shown a mistake in an observance of half a- century. ‘Governed by the position of the last phase of the moon in February each year, the forecast of the Dutch Weather Prophet for the fruit crop has not failed of fulfilment since. he discovered the basis of it. * “The phase of the moon took such favorable position this year, which it will maintain until July, so it stands to reason thaj suffeient fruit will be seen on the trees in its maturity at that time. “The Dutch Weather Prophet is hereby reminded that one of the greatest observers of human nature, its moods and foibles, as well reveal ing the truths of the Book of Nature, made an excusable mistake when he ( ShakeSprer) put- in the moutk of eng of his characters in “Othello” to say: at Newberry T two trees of Bailyeu’s October peaches bloomed a month earlier than the early peaches and the blooms were killed by a freeze that year, while a full crop of early peaches was secured. ' “However, as the jreach was in troduced into Europe from Persia subsequent to the period when the immortal Bard of Avon interpreted so many things so wisely, he was tight so far as he then was acquainted with the fruit tfees of his dav. On Cotton Crop. “Conditions will not be so favorable for a big cotton crop, considering the probability cf a wet year. The Dutch Weather Prophet will risk the definite forecast that tain from the southeast in August will form an area of pre cipitation that will compare with similar periods when freshets occur red in May, 1886; August, 1908, and July 1916. However, one or the other may reoccur in either of the above named Her Though every thing be fair against . the sun; The fruit that first will bloom must Loses Auto by Fire. Charlie Brown, Jr., of this city, had the misfortune to lose his light road ster by fire Thursday, together with 25 pounds cf cucumber seed that he had just purchased. Mr. Brown says the blaze started after he had left the machine and was directing the work cf some farm hands in a near by field and believes that it was caused by a short circuit. The flaames were extinguished before the car was en tirely destroyed. It is understood that there was no insurance. ADVERTISE IN The People- Sentinel.

In March, 1896, the Dutch Weather Prophertemembers that in his orchard months this year. “In his October (1932) forecast the Dutch Weather Prophet set 1933-34 for the beginning of recovery of the depression. In a birthday greeting which he sent President Roosevelt January 30, he said that his (the president’s) prediction and hope for such recovery in its entirety in 1936 would be fully realized.
