What Will Congress Do? i(

President Wilson and his Cabinet, >
have dallied along to the end of their
limit. They are at the end of their a
powers as regards effective action iS
against German aggression on the
high seas. Further "notes" and (
memorandums are things of the s
past. They have all been shot to ,.
pieces bye Gr itan submarines. The a
old White House ink wei! has been
capsiz?d an! th1 pen is palsied. It!.
is now up to Congress to take t'i d
situation in hand. Tnere is no time f
for notes or nroc'aniationr or other i

American citizens are already in a

Death of Mrs A J Daniel.
c
Mrs A J Daniel, wife of the late j
James Dodd Daniel, died at the t
home of her son, Clarence C Daniel y
of Indiantown. on the night of March I
12, 1917. During her illness all was .1
done that could be done to make her ?
comfortable. She was constantly t
surrounded by her loved ones who n
were so kind and tender in minister- i
ing to her needs. I
Her maiden name was Agnes
Jeanette Singletary and her entire
life was spent in the Indiantown
neighborhood v. here she was well B
beloved by everyone. She was born
August 5. 1842. From early childhood
she was a faitful and consistent f
member of the Indiantown Presby- c
terian church, where her remains j
were laid to rest in the presence of \a
large number of sorrowing friends p
and relatives. Her beautiful Chris- v
tian character makes all who knew ^
glad that they came in touch with 8
such a noble life. Two sons and e
three daughters survive to mourn ^
her loss?Clarence C Daniel of In- j
diantown, J D Daniel of Lake City,
Mrs G 0 Cooper of Indiantown, Mrs j
Wm Cooper of Columbia, and Mrs r
H 0 Britton of Kingstree. s

It is a good plan to transplant your
torr.ato plants from the seedbed or <
flats to cold frames, where they can I
be protected with glass en- cloth and I
allowed to grow large and stocky f
before setting in the lield. Set them 8
four inches apart each way in cold
frame. Then when you transplant 1
to the field wet the bed thoroughly, (
cut them out with a spade and move v
them, dirt and all. They will then
keep right on growing and hardly r
