SEEMS POOR ECONOMY ROUNDABOUT WAY OF KEEPINO FIRE HOUSES CLEAN. Story Told by Writer In The Public, Whether the Real Thing or Not, May Possibly Illustrate a Sad Truth. About two months ago I happened to sit down beside a pleasant-faced old fellow in the smoking car of a train pulling out of Philadelphia. I wanted to smoke, and on discovering that I had no matches, I turned to my seat mate and asked if he could spare me one. "Certainly," said he, "that is one thing I can get all I want for noth ing." Seeing that he was inclined to talk, I humored him by asking: "low's that?" "Why, you see," he replied, "I work for the city, in the fire department, and we can got all we want of any thing like that. Just turn in a requi sition for them and along they come. But there is one thing we can't get all we want of. though." "What's that?" "lBrooms. We ean't get a broom. We cain retu!isitiol as much as we like, but we can't secure a singlo broom." " ltow's that?" "Dlon't kiow, but we can't get one." "How (10 you kp the place clean, tben? I always thought. they wero very particular in the fire departmient to have everythin' spick and span." "That's it," sidd hei. nudging in in the ribs, "that's it! low (10 we keep it clean? A!uswt be clean for inspec tion. Know what we do? I'll tell you! We use blanl:0ts. Yes, we take blank ets, tear '(,m up into strips and make mops out of 'vilm an keep the place it; ieat as you please! You see we can get all Ithe blankets we want, but we can't get a broom. So we take turns requisitioning blankets." "iHut the blankets must cost a lot more than brooms would." "Sure. Bllankets must stand the city at least a dollar and a quarter each, while the best broom's bought in large quantities would not cost over twen ty-five cents apiece. And one broom would last. longer than half a dozen blankets. But we can't help it. Must keep the fire house clean for inspec tion or would all get fired. No mat ter low often we requisition brooms there Isn't one forthcoming, while we can get all the blankets we want, and no questions asked." "Seems funny. How Is it, do you suppose?" "Only reason I can give is that the new admininstration is short of funds. Possibly somebody in a former admin istration got some graft for laying in a large stock of blankets and got no brooms. ]lut it costs somebody some thbig in the long run. Pierce, isn't it?'-W. P., Jr., in The Public. Go'f on a Battlefield. Golfers of the MexIco Country club at Mexico City who were recently barred from their games for two weeks because the Carranza and Zapata forces were using the linkis for a bat tleground, had an unusual experience when, on the day after the retreat of the soldiers they resumed ptlay. Notwithstanding that the links had been torn up by shells, all went wejl withu the game until the drive-off ftome the seventh tee had been followed tip to the green. It was then that the man wh'lo had the beCst lie waved to huis comtpanions excitedlly to huirry on up.

BYRD. * (Sou thern School News. * * - Much interest has been felt through out the state during the past spring and sunner in the removal of Chicora College fron Greenville to Columbia, and its consolidation with the College for Women. Rev. Samuel Craig Byrd, D. D., who has been president of Chi cora College since 1900, was chosen president of the combined institutions, for which was adopted the combined name, Chicora 'College for Women. Samuel Craig Byrd was born in Laurens county. le received his early education at the public school of his native county. After his preparatory work was.completed, he entered the Presbyterian College of South Caro lina at Clinton, where he received the degree of B. A. lin 1889, and that of M. A. in 1892. lie then decided to prepare himself for the ministry, and entered Columbia Theological Seiinary. During his seminary course, lie acted as tutor of librw. and so successful was le in this work that he was called back to it several year, lat er, as tutor and pro feisor. lie 1ws ordained a I'Iresbyterian lhiister ill 15', lie was assistant Pastor of the First. i'rsbyterian chu111ch inlNl Orleanis for onle year, .l.

Not a few ruollalices have had their beginning in the pleasant associations between the students of the Seiiiaiy and the young ladies of the College for Women, just aeross the street.
