Search for the bodies of Clinton
Hood and Arthur Chambers, who
were drown off Charleston when a
canoe upset with them Sunday
morning, continues without results.
The paddles of the canoe have been
found and the hats of the young
men, but no other traces of the
bodies remain. It has been said since
they were caught in an outgoing
tide, that there is a strong likelihood
of the bodies having been carried
to sea.

Federal Road Money
Columbia, April 28.?There is
available for aid in erecting bridges
in South Carolina about $750,000.00

money for building bridges can be
secured by the counties of the State
in exactly the same way as the
Federal money for building roads.
The erection of the necessary
bridges is an important matter in
South Carolina on account of the
fact that the State is crossed bymany
large rivers, which with their
swamps are formidable barriers to
intercourse by road between various
sections of the State.
The bridge itself will afford a
splendid outlet to Augusta for the
Beach Island section of Aiken county
and the territory traversed by
the Charleston and Western Carolina
Railroad in Aiken and Barnwell
counties. It is now necessary in or
der to get to Augusta by road from
the Beach Island section of Aiken
county to go by way of Bath. The
new bridge across the Savannah
river at Sand Bar Ferry will shorten
the distance by many miles.
The question of building necessary
bridges is one which affects
South Carolina very vitally, as the
State is cut up by several large
rivers, some of which are bordered
m the low country by swamps of
formidable width.
^ This is especially true of the Santee
river, which is one of the largest
streams in the Southeastern
section of the United States. This
river is not spanned by a highway
bridge anywhere, although it is
crossed by four railroad bridges.
After making exhaustive examinations
and surveys, the State Highway
Commission found that from
the stand point of cost the best
point on the Santee river at which

Pinck nev's Landing, a point on the
Santee River between Clarendon
and Orangeburg counties, closely
seconds Lanneau's Ferry in the
matter of being the best available
bridge site from the standpoint of
cost. The Santee River in its present
unbridged condition composes,
with its wide swamp, a barrier tc
intercourse by road between the
prosperous Pee Dee section of the
s State and Charleston and the South
western half of the State generally,

DELCO-LIGHT is the physical
manifestation of a thought.
Never cuss a Gasoline Engine.
Cuss the Designer.
DELCO-LIGHT ran 2000 hours before
the first plant was sold.
All things are manufactured by ^
man for man's comfort and needs? mw
If men were twice as large as they do I
are, chairs would be made just double
their present size. (
So long as man is willing to debase
his ideals for the dollars he can JJ1

"Speed" counts for nothing, in
making a success. If you are on the
wrong road, the faster you go, the int<
farther you will get from the desir- ^
