Denmark, Oct 2 —Denmark and Barnwell high school foot ball teams fought to a scoreless tie here. The game was the hardest fought on this Held in a number of seasons. Neither team made any head way in the first half but Denmark made a number of fumbles during the first half. In the fourth quarter the Den mark team put on the best offen sive drive that has been seen on the local field in several years, driving the ball within the five- yard line three times during the quarter and had the ball on the two-foot line the last play of the game. Smoak, McCain and Brooks each gained consistently in turn while Delk did his blocking assignments well. The whole Denmark line charged hard on offensive and stopped Barnwell running iplays. Wood, Collins. Crum, Wolkin. Johnson, Cope and Kittrell were the Denmark linemen. The Barnwell team put up a hard fight throughout the game Barnwell’s safety men returned punta well. Denmark will play Williston- Elko here next Friday night at the annual church carnival. S*tata Defeat BlackviUe. Black vi lie.

The Barnwell public schools have settled into their regular routine as the second school month is open ed. The first few days that were necessary to the acclimating of both pupils and faculty members have passed and the schood routine goes forward as regularly as the clock. This year there was an addition al teacher added to the staff to help with the high school work. This was necessitated by the en rollment of additional! students and the taking in of the seventh grade students from several of the nearby communities. It was decided that seventh grade stu^ dents, brought to enter junior high, would be in better shape for the high school work than if they en tered the Barnwell schools in the eighth grade. The extra year in the local schools will give the rural students time to become accusto med to the local school routine be-' fore entering high school work. T. N. Wood replaced Roy E. Howey, who resigned to accept work in the Greenville city schools, in the manual arts department and has already got hia year’s work started nicely.

Omr, Oct. 2.—Yenterdsy after noon the Olar high school met a powerful team from Estill, but mustered their strength to over come them with s 6 to 0 victory. The light, but flashy team of Olai scored on Estili late in the last quarter, the touchdown being made by James Chitty, Jr. Oyster Supper Enjoyed. The ladies of the local Baptist Church served an oyster supper at the church on Friday evening, the proceeds to be used for some worthy church project. A great many of the Barnwell families took advantage of this opportunity to get a good oyster supper and to help a worthy cause, as a result of which the ladies raised quite a tidy sum for the church. 12:15—Adjourn.

Quite a Urge number of the** enroll*** have secured employment while several others have excellent prospects, the Captain stated. The absorption by private industry of some 20 or 30 men from the local camp seems to be a sign that busi ness conditions are on the upgtnde. The local officers are still anxious to place the men who were dis charged and who had been unable to get positions, therefore any em ployer who can use worker* is re quested to get in touch with the local officials. The following is the list of the discharged men along with their respective home addresses: Cain Briggs, BlackviUe; Cephus Mar tin, Walterboio; Pete Brown, Co lumbia; B. F.

He was accompanied to his post of duty late in August by Miss Stan sell and relatives from Ridge Spring, On the teturn trip, Miss Stansell drove an automobile home, • gift of Capt. Stansell. Elko this season, has a four- teacher school. Four school dis tricts—Mt. Calvary, Green’s Acad emy.

Copeland, of Batesburg, princi pal at Reeviesville last year, is the principal here. The Elko district bought a new school bus this year, and school lunches are being serv ed. As far as your correspondent knows, none of our girls have taken up the habit of smoking— some say that Misses smoke cigarettes, but a perfectly nice lady was heard several days ago to say that she thought she’d get her a pipe. “The gnats are so bad,” she said. Ugh!

Approximately five miles of rural electric power lines have been constructed from her* through the Mt. Calvay section and the “juice” was turned on last week. Those are good folk in that section and Elko was glad to divide its current with them. It is reported that one sister was so elated over the new light that she sat up all night. Elko is planning to stage a booth at the Williston Community Fair in November. It was suggest ed that this might help us to forget about the boll weevil, and might help us iron out some of our dif ferences—if there be any. Other observations and remarks heard around . here:— Dear wife calling out the window to hubby working in the garden, “Mr. will you please come in the house and pull off your Sunday shirt?” Complaint about the water at the school house. How awful, church member drinking a bottle of Coca- Cola in public. Filling-station operator asking traveling salesman in a pretty automobile the horse power, and the drummer replying, “It’s mule-ipower; it balks so of ten.” A verified report is that Geo. E. Crouch, Jr., had been elected a member of the Clemson College faculty. Mr. Crouch a year or two ago received his Bachelor’s de gree from Furman University. In June, 1935, he was awarded hia Master of Arts degree by Vander bilt University after a year’s study. He is now in his second year’s study at the University of North Caroline, working far hie Doctoi’s Degree In Physics. Mr. Crunch was elected to teach C>hyBict an^ mathematic* a t Clemson, but since be was already at work for th* session at Chapel Hill, he decided not to accept th* Clemson offer. The friends of Frank J. Green will regret to know of his misfor tune in severely cutting his leg with an axe last Saturday. He had medical aid immediately but suffeied severe pains Sunday, and Sunday evening was carried to the Veterans’ Hospital in Columbia. All Elko is hoping for no serious consequences. The womens’ <W.

Lieutenant Sealey, of District CCC headquarters in Fort Moul trie, rated the local CCC Camp mess hall in excellent condition when he held a regular inspection of the outfit last week. The local mess, and camp as well, has long been considered one of the best in the aiea, and on each inspection has rated high. , Captain Leon B. Schuh is at present commanding officer of the camp having taken over his duties on the first of September. He is sssisted by Lieut. T. 0. Purdue, with J. P.

Southern experi ment stations and growers are finding. Even with excessive rainfall, in man*.'sections this year nasi damage has been es severe as it was during the dryj weather last year. There is only one known wey to control cotton rust—USE MORE POTASH. In addition to controlling rust potash produces larger yield*], heavier seed and heavier bolls. It makes more lint per seed, better grade, longer steple, stronger hbec*|^ a higher percentage of normal fibers. RUSTED % COTTON IS HARD TO PICE, end its poor quelity, causes Southern fanners an annual loss amounting to,. millions of dollars . Plan now to produce e crop next ' year that will grow normally to maturity. It can be . done by using e fertiliser containing 6 to 10 per cent ^potash and a nitrogen-potash top dresser if necessary. • ^Consult your county agent or experiment stittmi mbout r lot abo *tilieef the fertility of your soil See your fertiliser deal- about the right amounts of potash in your cotton far-' Write ua for further information and literature.
