Beekeepers To Meet
Spartanburg, August 20.—Plans
fpr a bee exhibit at the State
Fair in October and also a discus
sion of the part South Carolina
beekeepers will be expected to play
at the Southern Beekeeping
States’ Federation meeting to be
held in Charleston November 28-
30, will be discussed at the state
wide meeting of beekeepers to be
held at the Chamber of Commerce
in Columbia, at 10:30 a. m.,
Thursday, September 1, announced
A. H. Ezell, Spartanburg county
beekeeper who is president of the
Association.
E. S. Prevost, extension bee
specialist of Clemson College,
states that a large number of Pal
metto state beekeepers will attend
the Columbia meeting.
“We hope to put on a very
creditable exhibit at the fair,”
Mr. Prevost said, “because we
. feel that our own South Carolina
people should be acquainted with
the excellent quality of honey
produced in this state.
“The Federation meeting to be
held in Charleston will be attend
ed by some of the most important
figures in the bee industry of the
United States. South Carolina
beekeepers will be missing a
golden opportunity if they do not
attend the Federation convention.”

Would Take Chinese
Mill Worker 20 Years
To Purchase Auto
mobile If He Saved
All His Earnings
Clinton, Aug. 19.—It would take
a South Carolina textile worker
only eight months, if he saved all
he earned, to buy a small auto
mobile, but it would take a
Chinese cotton mill worker more
than 20 years to make a similar
purchase.
A preview of figures from the
1938 “Yearbook of labor Statis
tics”, soon to be published by the
International Labor Office at
Geneva, Switzerland, makes this
and other interesting comparisons
possible in its section on wages
throughout the world.
In December, 1937, South Caro
lina cotton textile workers earned
42.1c an hour, according to the
Southern States Industrial Coun
cil, yet figures of the International
Labor Office show that Chinese
workers earn approximately 1.4c
an hour, while Japanese workers,
with 3c an hour, are not much
better off.
Working 40 hours a week, the
earnings of the South Carolina
mill employee would pay for a
light coupe after slightly more
than eight months of work. After
a like period the Japanese worker
would barely be able to purchase
two first grade tires with tubes,
and the Chinese worker would
have to content himself with
three or four pairs of high quality
American shoes.
If the German textile worker
worked 40 hours a week, 52 weeks
a year, It would take him one
year and five months to pay for
an automobile, and it would take
the French worker one year and
11 months.
The Yugoslavian textile worker
would require two years and
seven months of labor, and before
the Italian worker could take Mrs.
Tony for a Sunday afternoon
drive he would have to labor for
three and a half years.
In Bombay, India, nearly eight
years of work would be necessary
before the young man, who would
then be a middle-aged man, could
take his Burma sweetheart in his
new flivver to see the flying
fishes play.
Before the Japanese textile
worker could scrape together
enough to purchase a car in which
he might ride out to see the
snows of Fujiyama he would have
to work for nearly ten years—a
decade—and save every- yen he /
made.
And to all of the foreign figures
must be added additional months
and years to pay for shipping
charges and import duties on a
U. S. car.
Perhaps the fact that the South
Carolina textile worker’s earnings
would purchase an automobile
after slightly more than eight
months is one reason why the
United States has more automo
biles than any other country on
earth, enough to take every man,
woman and child in the nation
for a ride at one time.

Achieve Renown
To the Editor:
Near Lynchburg, Sumter Coun
ty, S. C., dwelt a local Methodist
minister, the Reverend William H.
Smith and his devoted consort, to
whom were bom three sons and
two daughters, each of whom re
ceived a college education. The
eldest son, the Reverend Doctor
A. Coke Smith, became a bishop
for the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South. The second son.
Ellison D. Smith, became United
States Senator, where for thirty
years he has rendered distinguish
ed service and now worthily seeks
re-election. The third son, the
Reverend Charles B. Smith, has
been a prominent minister of the
Methodist Conference of South
Carolina for more than half a
century. The eldest daughter,
Fannie, became the wife of the
Reverend James W. Koger, who
for a number of years served suc
cessfully as a Methodist mission
ary in Brazil. The other daughter,
Anna, was married to the Rev
erend Doctor John A. Rice, who
was for some years president of
Columbia (S. C.) Female College.
In the spring of the good year
1881 your correspondent filled the
unexpired term of the Reverend
Mr. Koger on Clarendon Circuit
with headquarters at Shiloh in
Sumter County. During March
and April of that year the writer
was an honored guest in the
hospitable Smith home two days
and nights each week. Ellison
and Charles ^ere then their
father’s efficient plough boys.
Father Smith was gifted with
uncommon conversational powers
and was a humorist of the clean
est type.
It was no wonder that the chil
dren of this pious home should
achieve renown.
Sincerely yours,
W. A. Betts.
