A movement has been <>n foot for
several months in the upper part of
Iii? etat?* to organ Is* an association of
stenographers and typewriters, and
The Daily Itsm has been requested to
cell attention of the followers of
shorthand In Sumter to the organiza?
tion meeting which will be held on
Monday. July 6th. at the Atlantic
Beach Hotel. Sullivan's Island, at 10
A U.
The Idea has heen received with
?rest enthusiasm on nil sides, and
nearly every section of South Carolina
will be represented at the coming
meeting. Several attempts have been
made in recent years to perfect an or?
ganisation of this nature, but for va?
rious reasons lack of sufficient In?
terest In the nn>\fiiietd prevented the
association from belns actually form?
ed. However, the present movement
has met with unparalleled success,
and the orgsnlters have now com?
pleted arrangements for what Is hop?
ed to be a permanent state associa?
tion in this profession.
The object of the association Is to
endeavor to develop greater efficiency
among the writers of shorthand In
South Carolina, and place the profes?
sion on its rightful plane in the com?
mercial world; to discover. If possible
the various causee of failure of
stenographers who are competent, but
who overlook the importance of train?
ing themselves for the higher fields of
their vocation. an a stepping stone,
can open to them. Certainly no pro?
fession has as mans opportunities to
offer its followers as shorthand, and
the proposed association will strive to
?upgdy the demands made upon this
profession by advocating greater
study In ad\am-??d methods for great?
er Speed, accuracy, legibility; It is in?
tended not so much to remind steno?
graphers, both men and women, thai
their, ultimate success In shorthand
depends upon their abllliy to serve,
but rather to demonstrate to them
how to serve; how to do It better;
how to labor leas end accomplish
more. In a word how to become
more proficient In their own profes?
sion and attain the highest state of
efficiency.
II is earnestly hoped, therefore,
that the stenographers and typewrit?
ers of Momter will avail themselves of
the opportunities this association will
offer to them, and cooperate with
their fellow writers all through the
State, and that everyone of them will
let nothing prevent them from being
prsawnt at this organisation meeting
and becoming active members. July
Ith has bean selected as a meeting
date on account of It being a holiday,
so there will be no excuse for any
stenographer who I*, really ambitious
not being present. A special dinner
will be served the members by the
Atlsntic Heach Hotel at a very rea?
sonable cost, and It should prove a
most pleasurable das f"i the short?
hand writers of South Carolina In be?
ing able to meet their co-workers
from other towns end discussing Im?
ports nt matters in person, and par?
ticularly In being able to get togeth?
er and assist In the formation of an
association In their profession that
will prove of untold benefit from ev?
ery point of s iesv in the years to come.

Attorney t.cncrnl Renders uu Im?
portant opinion.
t'??lunil'la. June 17.?According to
an opinion rendered l>y the olHee of
Thomas H. PeOplee, attorney general
i to- dumnitiK of a stream in the for?
mation or an artificial pond, does
not make tl a "pond" within the con?
templation of the law, "but the wa?
ters so dammed up continue a part of
the stream and, therefore, whether
privately owned or not, In euch wa?
tt rx. in my opinion, it is a violation of
? the law to heb In any matter other
'ban as 1? allowed by the statutes reg?
ulating the catching of llsh."
I The opinion is of interest, as there
are many privately owned ponds in
the State. The owners and others,
therefore, who Hlsh in many of these
ponds re untenable to the law govern?
ing the public waters of the State.
The opinion was in answer to a let?
ter from Col. A. A. llichardson, of
Columbia, chief game wurden, who
wanted to know what "constitutes a
private pond or lake under Section
765, Criminal Code of 1912." The let?
ter states that the chief game warden
has several cases pending in Claren?
don county and the results depend on
whether the body of water is pri?
vate or not. The pond in question
ie furmetl bf the damming up of a
running stream, the "backed up" wa?
ter being on private land.
The attorney general quotes the
code, which gives authority to the
j general assembly to make such laws
and regulations governing fishing in
the public waters of the State as it
may see tit. The attorney general
quotes 40 Cyc, page H34, as follows:
"A lake is an inland body of water
of considerable site, occupying a nat?
ural basin or depression in the earth's
surface below the ordinary drainage
level of the region, fed by either sur?
face or subterranean streams or
springs, and containing little or no
current or motion of the waters in any
particular direction. A pond has the
?ame characteristics, except thai it is
of relatively small size, and may be
? ither natural or artlllclul."

Pisgah. June 16.?A light rain fell
here yesterday, which was needed.
For the lkst ten days fine progress has
been made In cleaning the crops of
grass. Most of them are in good
shape.
Wheat and oats have been gather?
ed. Oats are lighter than in years.
Wheat is short by excessive rains.
The government report that cotton
was 80 per cent of a perfect crop is
as true as the Allies' report of the
war.
It Is a national loss that Bryan is
out of the Wilson cabinet. He is
known world-wide as a man of peace
and nations know that he would not
rashly go Into a tight until all peace?
ful efforts fal'ed. His position In the
Cerman dispute Is sound and no
doubt the great mass of the American
people will suy so.
It is a pity that people who wor?
ship at England's feet would
see, (if they can) her faults. Her
position in the war of 1812 should
convince all people of her methods of
war with a 1000 to 40 sail she reach?
ed the American vessels for sailors,
handcuffed and dragged them off, to
her ships with the threat, "If you
don't like it. I will sink you." Perry
taught her a lesson about that time
that she did not forget.
I-dverpool hxlng the price of Ameri?
can cotton is enough to make a dog
vomit, and we submit with not
enough of manhood to control our
own product. MeLaurtfl is doing
what he can and a little nest is trying
to destroy him, by parylizing his ef?
forts. Wait until next year and see
something.

JOHN MIMs DIES OF SHOCK.
Third Member or Family Victim or
Accident at Pond.
The following is from the Saluda
standard, of Thursday:
John F. Mima, aged -1, died about
1,19 O'olOCll Sunday morning ai the:
result of shock caused by the drown- I
ing of his brother and sister, Harry
and Kvelina .Minis, Tuesday afternoon
at the Ethcrcdge Mill pond. Mr. Minis
was first taken ill Friday morning, hut
not seriously until Saturday afternoon,
his death following a few hours later,
{when the shock of the tragedy and his
exertions in rescue work proved too
great a strain on hi' heart.
On Tuesday afternoon of last week,
Mr. Mims, with his brother and sis?
ter. Harry and Evelina, and several
other boys aad girls, was rowing on
Etneredge's Mill pond, near Saluda,
j when the boat capsized and his broth?
er and sister were drowned. All the1
others were rescued. After it trag- j
edy Mr. Mims stayed in the water for]
about half an hour diving and trying j
to rescue the body of his brother. I
Physicians think that he strained ]
himself by overexertion, and that to
l
gether with the shock sustained, was
the cause of his deuth.
J Mr. Mims, who had been living In
Charleston, was here on a visit when
the tragedy occurred. He expected to
leave In about a wek for Oklahoma,
where he had accepted a position for
the summer. His plans were to enter
Furman in the fall and study for the
ministry.
John Mims was the oldest of a fam?
ily of fourteen children, seven of
whom are now dead. He was very
popular with those who knew him.
He had just achieved the full bloom
of young manhood and had the prom?
ise of a bright and useful life. He
was a quiet, manly fellow, and had
made many friends during the short
time that he had lived in Saluda.
He is survived by his father and
mother and seven sisters. The be?
reaved family have the universal
sympathy of the people of Saluda
county.
The burial took place Monday
morning at the town cemetery,
where the deceased was laid by the
side of his brother and sister. The
services were conducted by the Rev.
Amos Clary, assisted by the Revs.
j Jeff coat, OArdner, Carson and White.
All the business houses of the town
! were closed during the ceremonies.
IMMENSE FIEJd> OF OATS.
Harvester Catherlng 250 Acres in One
Field. 1
Camden Chronicle.
What is thought to he the finest
field of oats in Kershaw county is
being harvested this week on the
plantation of Mr. Henry Savage, just
across the Wateree river. In one
field there was a vast seat of oats?
all told 250 acres?and nearly as far
as the eye could see there was
nothing but oats. A large force of
hands was busy shocking and haul?
ing this harvest.
This oat field directs attention to
the exceptional amount of grain that
is being raised in the county this
spring. There was probably more
wheat and grain generally sown In
Kershaw county this spring than ever
before and the same is true of many
other counties. South Carolina will
doubtless raise several times as
much grain this year than last year
Of any previous year for that matter.
Besides the 250 acres in oats, Mr.
Savage has planted 4 0 acres In wheat
2 acres in rye and numbers of acres
in corn and alfalfa, against only 50
acres In cotton.
This might well be termed a model
farm, as it is entirely self sustaining
and the proprietor does not have to
depend upon cotton for a money crop.
Nine large barns?all numbered?arc
located in different parts of the farm,
in close proximity to the crops to be
harvested, in order to save long hauls.
Every years they are filled and from
these barn Mr. Savage each year has
foodstuffs for sale on the local market
and much stuff to he shipped away.
After the harvesting of the immense
crop of oats and wheat ho will plant
this land in corn, peas and peanuts,
which will be ready for harvesting in
the fall.
Having a large up land and low land
past ire up??n which to graze his cat?
tle ,h< has an Immense herd of Aber?
deen AngUI cattle. A large silo helps
feed this herd in winter.
Mr. Savage does not believe in stick?
ing to one Crop alone but believes in
diversification. He came here sveral
years ago from the New England
dtatea He is putting some of the
Yankee thrift Into this farm, and It's
telling. Kershaw county and the State
nt large would be better off if more
farmers would follow Mr. savage's
method of farming.
There Were twenty-live persons in
nttendanoe upon the Humter liar As?

day, Plenty Of tried and stewed llsh
and u barbecued pig were some of the
good things provided by lite Messrs.
