Beauty and the Beast It’g a. lonf? way from Sarah Bern hardt to Jack Ross, Greek wrestler of Augusta, but. after all they hav^ something in common. Tuesday we read in an Augusta paper that Ross would retire unless he won over his opponent in a match in Augusta Wed nesday night. The State of Wednes day published the information that Ross would retire unless he won over his opponent in a match in Columbia Thursday night. Lon Chaney (not the Lon Chaney of motion pictures) was s lated to be the vehicle of retire ment in each instance. Ross’ threat ened retirement recalls the farewell tours of the Divine Sarah. WHY GOSSIP? (Contributed) Why gossip? Why do people like to “run down” their neighbors instead of commending them for the deeds well done and leave unchronicled the slips that it is only human to make? A notworthy case of maliejous gos sip is that which happened on June 27th down in Mississippi when a “poisonous tongue” spread small, mean talk about a lady who had the reputation of having lived a quiet, unobstrusive life. As a i exult of this talk, the substance of which wa 8 not divulged in the newspaper account, a prominent woman of that section, along with another woman and two men, allegedly took the victim out and beat her until she was as “bloody as a hog.” Whether these accusations are true or not i R a matter for the courts of that State to decide, but at any rate a situation that well might have been avoided hs been brought up, and time, unwanted publicity and money will have to be spent by the defendant be fore justice hag been satisfied. Then, too, whatever the verdict, there will forever be the question of doubt hang ing over these four people. The woman who was unmercifully beaten—what did she do? If it were something punishable by law, why not let the law take itg course? If H were a lie, irreparable damage has been done to her. Let’s gtop and THINK before we repeat or start false or true deroga tory remarks about our fellow men. Nine chances out of ten the “gossiper” i g just as human and has made just as many mistakes as the one he so glibly talks about.

Yeais and years ago, before pa jamas were introduced from Turkey where they were and are still used as street garb, my old lady decided that she could save between 20 and 15 cts. by making a pair of outing night shirts for me. Not having wjelded' a needle be fore in the direction of mens’ wearing apparel (and in my judgment, needles and sewing were not listed amongst those things she knew most about at tha time), I did' not expect a gay Paree model or design for use while wrapped in the arms of Morpheus. Well, the night finally came in late December (thermometer 20 in the bedroom) when I donned one of those glorious hand-made reposing garments. I had 1 never before seep such a thing a s that night shirt was. It was tubular in shape, a semi-round hole that looked like and “O” showed at one end for my head to go thru; the tail end was shaped like the top of a wash tub. The right s leeve of this most re markable sleeping habit struck me at elbow while the left sleeve barely per mitted the tips of my fingers to poke out. There was only one button on it, the same being located just be neath my throat. When I buttoned it, it puckered the “O” so badly I al most choked to death.

C. Milk is carriad through sanitary pipas to tha milk bottling room adjoining, shown in illustration to tha laft. Within a few minutes, from tho tima the milk leavas the cow, it is cooled and bottled. Whan a cow is mitksd, the gate in front is opened by tha operator by means of a lever, tha cow walks forward and out to her barn or food lot and the gate cloees. The rear gate opens and a cow coming in to ba milkad takes her place in the stall. One operator can handla from three to fivo stalls and milksr units, and milk from 30 to SO oows par hour.

Well, it's be ing done in a big way by some of the finest dairies in the country. Several years ago at the dairy farm owned and operated by the Bureau of Dairying of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Heltsvillc, Md., a room for milking cows was built and equip ped with special run-through stalls ami a special type of milking machine de signed by the De Laval Separatoi Com- pan). Fast Milking Cows were brought into this room and the milk was withdrawn by the milking machine into glass jars sus pended on a scale attached to each stall. Sanitary pipes conveyed the milk by vac uum to the milk bottling room. Dr. Harris Moak, then secretary of the Certified Milk Producers Associa tion of America, called the room in which the cows were milked the "milk ing parlor." '1'hat name stuck. One man can operate three to five milker units and milk from 30 to 50 cows per hour. Only a few minutes elapse from the time the milk leaves flu- cow until it is bottled. Haip Sail Milk Milking parlors help sell milk. Peo ple like to watch the cows being milked in this way. This provides advertising of inestimable value. Some progressive milk producers cap italized upon this idea and as a result constructed attractive milking parlors with large windows, so that rite milking and bottling operations would be visible to the public, 'lliis feature has proven so etteitive that already substantial busi- nevse> have been built around it and ex isting dames who have installed this sys tem have alnicM invariably increased their milk sales. Some dames having milking parlors report thousands of vis itors during the course of the year. Um lncr*«*«* More dairies are using milking par lors and cumbmr milkers in the South eastern States than in any other section ot the country. Among prominent users are the Bilt- inore Farms, Asheville, N. C; Spring- dale Farm, Spartanburg, S. C.; Dr. F. H. Mcl^eod, Florence, S. C.; B. H. Darden & Son, Norfolk, Va.; Yoder Bn»v.
