In view of the oft-asked question a? to where the IS.000.000 bales of cotton CO when made Into manufactured goods the following will be worth while: ' Cotton enters Into the manufac? ture of more articles today than any other commodity, except steel. "Eliminate cotton and the stoppage of spindles and looms would be but a trifle compared to the paralysis that would visit countless other In? dustries. "The fi ilroads of America :on ?umt< HI 000 balea of cotton annual? ly. Cotton duck is the basis of the airbrake hose; or enameled ceilings; the phi'h chairs are of cotton; the leather seats are of cott.o. "Automobiles require about 290. 000 bale- annually for the manufac? ture <>f Dreg and about 35,000 an? nually for tho manufacture of leath? er seats and cushions. "More cotton la used each year to harvest l market the grain crops of the world than would be required to clothe the inhabitants of a large elty. "Kb ctrlclty. powerful as it is, can? not K?'t i >n* without cotton. Mill? ion? of miles of copper wire annually owe the perfection of their Insulation to cotton yarn or tape of cotton cloth. "The nrmles of the world today are clothed in cotton cloth?khaki? or something similar. This country alone reuulres about 6.000,000 yards of eight ounce khaki cloth annually ,for Its arrry. "The navies and merchant ships of the world use more cotton duck today than was required In the days of sailing vessels. "Millions of yards of cotton cloth are used by the tobaccco Industry for growing tobacco under shade and making bags for smoking tobacco. "Cotton Is ueed In the mining and marketing of coal. About 15.ooo.ooo yards of cotton duck annually are made Into coal bigs. "About 20.000,000 yards of cotton duck are made into overcoats with blanket lining, to take the pine* Ol tieavy wool and fur garments in Ute American and Canadian northwest. "Thousands of bales annually are required to make cotton duck to place around the asbestos sectional covering In which the steam and hot water pipes of fireproof buildings lire encased. "Cotton blankets have displaced wool blankets in many important markets of the world. "Cotton cloth has taken the place of wall paper in thousands of mod? ern homes. I "Cement companies use about 8.000.000 yards of cotton bagging an? nually. "The government requires about 8,000,000 yardi) annually for coal bags. "Millions of yards of duck, 46 in? ches wide, are used annually for the purpose of Altering oils. "Cotton duck is the basis of rub? ber belting and all kinds of hose. Sales to these branches of trade amount to 50,000,000 yards annual iy. "Million of yards of cotton cloth are used In large cloth signs and ar vertisements. "More 'cotton' Is used in linen ?'hlrts and collars than linen It- j self. "Cotton Is used to a greater or less etxent in all but the most ex? pensive of woolen fabrics. "These items furnish a few of the reasons why the world needs 3, 000,000 bales more cotton than It did five years ago, notwithstanding the feet that new markets have not been extensively developed and the world's population has shown no sud? den increase." The stockholders of the Anderson County Hospital Association have rec? ommended to the directors of the in? stitution that they borrow $10,000 and remodel the building, doubling the ca? pacity and making it to accommodate fifty Instead of twenty-five beds as at present.

'V i vi) DETROIT \G\IN 1IE IN WORLD'S SERIES. rigors Won Yosierdav in Spectacular Exhibition?Mullins Hurling Puz? zled Piratee Tom Jones will not Play To-morrow, ai Ills Neck and Spine are Injured. Detroit, Oct. 14.?Detroit kept in the ?rv;it fight for the world's base !>all championship by defeating Pitts )urg 5 to 4 today, in a battle full of lensatlonal and thrilling situations, ind tonight the two teams are tied, ivith three victories each. The seven h and deciding game will be played lere Saturday. A fear-inspiring ral? ly in the ninth inning by Pittsburg a is stopped after one run was scor ?d. but three Detroit players were njured in stemming the rush of Pitts >urg runs to the plate. Tom Jones, the Detroit firrt bate nan was the most seriously hurt. His neck and spine were injured in a col ision with Wilson at first base, and [his resulted in Pittsburg scoring its run of that session. Charles Schmidt, the catcher, bad ais right leg badly gashed in block? ing Abeteln off the plate In the final Inning. The piny that finished the threat? ening rally of the National League champions resulted In the injury of George Moriarity, when he caught Wilson trying to steal third on Ah baticchio's strlk-out In the same in? ning. Ifortarity'i left knee was badly hurt when Wilson slid into the base. H is practically certain that Jones Will not be able to play in Saturday s I ilecisive battle. Schmidt, it is thought, Will be able to play and there is no doubt that Moriarity will be in the last game. The Pittsburg team got away in the lead by smashing out three runs, on four successive hits off Mullin in the first inning. After that the great Mullin was invincible until the ninth, when he weakened enough to get in? to a dangeous situation, only to ex? tricate himself by another marvelous exhibition of pitching.

Law Requires All Who Tearh in 1 o Public Schools to Secure Them. The school law of this State re? quires every ti-acher in a public school of any kind to have a certificate to teach. The State superintendent of education has recently called atten? tion to the law, and a circular letter calling particular attention to this requirement has recently been sent by the high school inspector to the prin? cipal of every State aided high school. Notwithstanding all these, dozens of teachers in these schools throughout the State are yet without certificates. Most of them are depending upon their diplomas. A diploma does not ntitle the holder to teach; a diploma from an accredited college gives the holder the right to a certificate to Leach. Some of these schools are go? ing to find themselves embarrassed, In e no money whatever will be send; i any ot these schools until every U acher in it has a valid certificate.? The State.
