C. Resolutions For D. M. Bullock Fight Paralysis In Poultry Flock 'P With Sanitation CLEMSON COLLEGE, Jan. 19.— A type of paralysis now causing much trouble in poultry flocks in the state makes rigid sanitation a •double important practice, says P: H. Gooding, extension poultryman. There is no treatment of any value in correcting the disease, he states. The most plausible theory re garding the cause of this trouble is that it is due to an organism which gains entrance into the bird’s body from contaminated soil or other means”, Mr. Gooding explains. “Growing birds three to eight months old are affected, greatest 'mogtality occurring shortly aftei pullets start laying.” Five precautions advised are: 1. Brood chicks on ground where ehickens have not ranged for sev eral years, and keep the growing pullets on a clean range until they are five months old. * 2. Disinfect the brooder house thoroughly before putting the chicks in it, and clean the house at least once a week afterwards. Keep the feeding and waterinf utensils clean. 3. Keep a pan of disinfectant a the entrance to the chick yard fo- disinfecting the soles of anyone’s shoes before entering. 4. Scrub and disinfect the per manent laying house thoroughly before putting the pullets in it Where range about the laying house is limited, plow and reseed it before allowing the pullets on it. 5. Purchase eggs, chicks, or breeding stock from flocks known to be free of paralysis, as there are some indications that the disease Is transmitted through the egg tc the chick. Extension Circular 136, Paralyse in Poultry, an illustrated leaflet or the subject, may be had from county agents or the Publications Department at Clemson College.

F. M., at their regular communication held in their hall here January 14, 1935: Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God, the Great Architect af the universe, to remove from this Ter restrial Lodge below to the Celestial ,odge above, Brother D. M. Bullock, who for eighteen years had been a oyal Masoiv, therefore be it resolv ed: 1st. That, while we mourn the early death of our departed broth er, on account of his many virtues, we bow in humble submission to the will of Hin^ “Who doeth all things well.” In his death Our Lodge, Masonry at large and the community in which he lived, have sustained a great loss. A true Mason, he was ever ready to stretch forth the “strong arm of charity” to aid the weak and help less. To us it seemed that his work was not finished, yet his column is broken. In our minds and hearts, his memory is on per petual record. We, each and all, mourn his loss, both as a faithful friend and brother. May his re ward be an entrance into eternal bliss in that Grand Temple, not made with hands, where the Su preme Architect of the universe *orever presides. 2nd. That a page in our minute bock be inscribed to his memory and the Lodge be draped in mourn- ng for a period of thirty days. 3rd. That a copy of these resolu tions be sent his family and the iame be published in the McCor mick Messenger. DAN A. BELL, C. K. EPTING, WM. R. WATSON, Committee.

Another is corned beef hash, crisply browned on one side, and decorated on the other with slices of hard-cooked eggs or with whole perfectly poached eggs. Curried beef, veal or lamb nay use some of the less-demanded cuts of meat, and served on rice they too provide ample and delicious one-dish meals. The secret of suc cess in the curried dishes depends, of course, upon interesting season ing, with which an open-minded cook may experiment to her heart’s content. A lamb stew, with tiny white on ions, sliced carrots and turnips, and little potato balls, is a simple one- dish meal in itself. . The stew is deliciously rich and creamy as a re sult of stirring egg yolk and a lit tle cream into it shortly before serving. Have hot baking powder biscuits accompany it. Green peppers baked and stuffed with Spanish sausage come to the rescue as the basis for a good back- to-normal meal. The stuffing con tains sausage, bread crumbs, toma toes, diced celery and grated onior. and it transforms the stuffed pep pers into a hearty enough dish t appear at dinner as well as a lunch. v Songs And Fun In Entertaining Landi Picture Scores Of Lovely Girls Are Seen In ‘"Flirtation Walk FAMOUS STAGE DIRECTOR, BOBBY CONNOLLY, HAS NOVEL METHOD OF SELECTING CHORUS Abbeville Opera House Wednesday And Thursday, February 6th-7th There is one musical and dance director who lias an entirely new slant on the business of producing screen extravaganzas! He is Bobby Connolly, the famous New York producer and director, whose first big screen effort is “Flirtation Walk,” the First Na tional musical which comes to the Abbeville Opera House on Wednes day and Thursday, with Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler and Pat O’Brien in the stellar roles. It is Connolly who directed the lavish Hawaiian sequence of “Flir tation Walk,” as well as the entire “Hundredth Night” West Point Play that takes up the latter portion of the picture. At least half of the gorgeous young beauties who appear in the musical sequences of the picture are girls with no previous stage or screen experience! Connolly believes that inexperi enced girls are far easier to direct, more spontaneous and more charming than girls who have ap peared in other musical comedies or films. “Flirtation Walk” is a thrilling romance of glorious youth with a mammoth musical setting, the ac tion taken in Hawaii and West Point.
