which is only a year old.
The direct work has been done by
the women, but the men have risen to
the club's suppestions and are turuinp
to it for help in a surprisinp number
of cases, says the Survey. The major
part of the meat dealers petitioned for
the club's cooperation in doinp away
witli insanitary conditions of sale
from wapons. The city officials were
interested to co-operate In reinovinp
weeds. The electric railway author!
tics have been broupht to see the nee !
, of a new station and lavatory The
board of health is condnp to realize the
necessity of locatinp the slaughter
houses more suitably and controlling'
their conditions.
A committee of merchants petitioned
! for an arc lipht where disorderly men
and women conprepated and for the
requirement of screens over fruit,
meats, etc.. exposed for sale,
j Unfortunate conditions after dark In
: a cemetery led to the appointment of a
committee to look after the nuisance,
composed of members of the church
; controlling the cemetery. The school
, authorities have established an evenj
lng school this year, and a union of
; forces has brought about a very sue
cessfnl beginning of playgrounds. Dur
lng the year a committee of men has
put the Cumberland charities upon a
business basis.
The Allegany county schools have
: made great progress during the last
few years under the leadership of an
efficient superintendent, and their
' service as social centers Is being developed.
All these social advances are
likely to broaden into a comprehensive
study of conditions and further prog

| PARIS KNOWS THEIR VALUE.
8mooth, Clean Highways and Beautiful
Park* Are Profitable to the City.
Paris has accepted unflinchingly the
doctrine that smooth and clean high

so long as the work is done in a thorough
and scientific manner, with an
honest and skillful application of
means to ends, the result is worth
having regardless of cost The expense
of maintaining, cleaning and
sprinkling the streets is greater than
in anj other European city, but the
sort of pre-eminence that such a street
service helps to secure Is profitable In
a hundred Indirect ways.
Paris has by far the richest park
equipment of any city 1l the world.
The area of parks within an afternoon's
excursion Is 20,000 acres, while
farther away are more extensive public
grounds, such as Versailles and
Fontalneblean. It Is impossible to estimate
the profits which Paris derives
annually from its parks, boulevards
and public buildings. Bankers have
estimated that Americans spend upward
of (500,000,000 annually in foreign
countries, and It Is safe to say
that Paris receives at least one-fifth
of this vast sum, the profits from
which are as great as are the profits
from pork to Chicago, shoes to 8t
Louis and beer to Milwaukee.
The experience of Paris ought to convince
the most skeptical that there is
o modern community of civilized men
which cannot affovd to provide the
most perfect public appointments that
technical and scientific knowledge
have discovered?well made and clean
streets, good water, proper drainage,
convenient transit facilities, complete
schools and thorough sanitary organlRations.

Outlook.
For a 8potl?sa Town.
The Kansas City chief of police has
Issued a rather drastic order, as follows,
says the Twentieth Century
Magazine: "Arrest on view any person
throwing paper or other rubbish on
the streets or in vacant lots, any person
excavating without a permit, any
person tacking or sticking cards or
posters on sidewalks, fence poles or la
other public places; any person scattering
handbills or circulars on sidewalks,
streets, porches, yards ?r private
premises or distributing them to
passers by; all teamsters who allow
dirt or rubbish to fall from their wagons.
Patrolmen are also Instructed to
notify ail owners or agents of vacant
property on their beats that weeds
must be cut at once and all rubbish
removed; to notify owners of abutting
property where earth has washed
down on to the street or sidewalk to
ramnva th# Immedlntelv: cause
the Immediate removal if manure
piles which may be iu the alleys."
Co-operative Street Work.
If you would have abutting property
owners interested in having clean,
beautiful streets to the extent of active
co-operation municipalities must
be progressive in street improvements.
It is hardly to be expected that clean
parkways and well cared for street
trees will abound In districts where
town officials do not do their full duty.
It is hard enough to obtain full co-operation
even where existing conditions
are well nigh perfect, and every degree
of negligence on the part of a
town is fully reflected in the slovenly
condition of those parts under care of
the residents.

BENSON BEATITUDES.
Youth and Beauty Meet and Pursue
Primrose Paths of Pleasure.
Benson, January 19:?Notwithstanding
the short crops of the past
year, farmers of this section appear
not in the least to be discouraged,
judging from the work preparatory
to another cotton and tobacco crop.
This month has been an exceptionally
good one for draining the low
places and cleaning out ditches,which
work is essential to success in case of
a rainy season such as we experienced
during the critical period of our
crop growth last year,
At this date nothing is being doneregarding
the purchase of fertiliz!
ers. This time last year guano agents
were busy and the planters were
rather extravagant in their orders.
This year we predict economy, a
sacrifice of pleasure and an abundant
harvest to the faithful laborers.
We hope the corn enthusiasm will
not abate,but increase, and the time
is now ripe for all contestants to be
diligently at work.
The past week has been a very
strenuous one with the young pleasure-seekers
of this section. There
was "something doing" every evening
save one. We learn, however,
th at the light fantastic trippers will
have a season of rest, for the older
heads have said "enough is enough"
and that the superfluous energy of
youthful exuberance shall be exercised
at labors of more profitable returns
for the time, perhaps.
With a pecuniary invitation parenthetically
expressed that the proceeds
would be for a worthy cause,
quite a crowd gathered at the home
of Mr John McGill on Thursday.
Oysters were served. Mrs McGill
and Miss Helen Scott presided in the
kitchen and the bivalves were pre
pared deliciousiy. yuite a nice sum
was realized. Among the visitors
were: Mr W P McGiil, Miss Mittie
and Mr P McGiil, Miss Mary Vause,
Mr J B Alsbrook and Miss Stella
Coward of Kingstree, Misses Mae
McCrea and Elna Kendig of Black
River, Miss Essie McRoy of Gourdins.
Miss Courtenay Adkinson, principal
of the Cedar Swamp school, has
resigned the position on account of
the feeble health of her mother.
The school was fortunate in securing
the services of Miss Helen Scott
of Kingstree to fill the vacancy.
Miss Scott has taught here before
and endeared herself. to the pupils,
earning a reputation for herself as a
successful instructor and disciplinarian.
Miss Effie Simmons of Summerville
has accepted a school near Zeb
postoffice.
Mr Henry Phillips, who has been
employed as salesman with P Rhem
& Sons for several years,is at home,
where he will engage in farming for
the next year.
Mrs May Wilson of Indiantown
spent a short time here with rela*tives
last week.
Miss Etta Jacobs, of the Cedar
Swamp school faculty,was unable to
be present Monday on account of
being slightly indisposed Jfrom a
bad cold.
Miss Annie Davis spent Saturday
and Sunday in Kingstree.
A certain popular gallant of the
county capital is a frequent visitor in
our midst. WES
Rural Teachers' JsseciatlOB
will meet at Indiantown Graded
school Saturday, January 28. The
following programme has been arranged:
Prayer.
Topic, "The Teacher as an Example
to His or Her Pupils,"?Prof
Crouch.
Music, Miss Green.

of the Health in the Lower

speak to us on "The Attitude of the

in the Schools."
