TION COMMITTEES
South Carolina Cotton Organi
zation Getting In Shape
For Work
Columbia. Dec. 11.?At a meeting
of ihe central committee of the South
Carolina Cotton Association here on
Tuesday afternoon the appointment
' of standing committees for the year
were announced by the president. Col.
R. M. Mixon. Those committees cov
er every phase of activity planned by
the association for the coming year.

tion and warehousing considered one

G. U Toole. VST. G. Smith. D. Harris.
O. L. Bethea and R. M. Cooper.

ning, chairman: D. \\*. Watkins and
Ju. S. Wolfe.
The committee on finance, organ
ization and membership is composed
of J. N. Kirven. chairman; John T.
Maokey, B. F McLeod. J. P. Strib
ling, E. R. Buckingham, John B. j
Cannon and J. K. Keitt.
The following were appointed on
the committee on seed improvement
and diversification: T. J. Kirven,!
chairman; Prof. B. H. Barr, Lowndes
. J. Browning. Cr. L. Toole. Dr. J. H.I
David. J. Swinton Whaley and Dr. j
W. W. Long.
The committee on cost of produc- j
tion will be composed of B. F. McLeod, i
chairman; A. G. Smith. T. L. Man- j
ning. P. Ii. Gooding, E. J. Wanna- \
maker. E. H. Bowen, L. D. Jennings]
and YV. A. Bowman.
The budget committee is composed ;
of John T. Mackey, chairman; T. G. 1
McLeod and 1^. 1. Guion.
The auditing committee is compos- j
ed of G. L, Toole. chairman: D. \V.
Watkins and Julian C. Rogers.
The central committee discussed
at length and plans for the "oming j
year every effort will be mad * > car
ry out the program which . as. been j
mapped out.
Col. Mixson is preparing an appeal !
to the teachers. lawyers, doctors. I
preachers and other professional men I
of the State asking their assistance j
in the campaign for membership. In ?
a letter which will shortly go to
them, he declares that the move-j
roent "affects vitally every person in.:
the South."
"The South," says Col. Mixson '"is'
dependent on the farmer. When ad- j
versity hits the farmer it hits the!
whole South. None of us have for-!
gotten the gloomy days of the fall of;
1914 when the cotton market utterly;
collapsed, with the South appealing to!
the North to buy cotton at 10 cents j
a pound as an act of charity. Business j
? was stagnated. Thousands upon j
thousands of men in the business;
world were thrown out of employ- j
_.ment-. Thousands suffered heavy cuts,
in salaries. Professional men were I
unable to collect what was due them.;
There was hardly a man. woman or f
child in the South but that was af- !
fected. Conditions did not improve;
a particle until the cotton market j
became stable.
**It seems to me that with the ex- i
perience of 191,4 fresh in our minds all j
~ot our people'would be quick to see j
-the necessity of everybody striving to j
cooperate with * the farmer in any j
movement looking to higher prices for j
cvrtton.
"The teachers, the lawyers, the j
preachers, the doctors, all. are inter- j
"ested in the betterment of the rural i
life of the South. They should, and. i
I Relieve, will cooperate in this great I
?movement for the organization of the 1
American Cotton Association of which i
the South Carolina Cotton Association J
is a branch.

RED CROSS SEALS
Each year at the coming of the
Yuletide season the cry has gone out
through the villages, towns and cities.
"Buy Christmas Seals." That is a
slogan this year in the campaign, to
raise $0,500,000 to battle with tuber
culosis but there is still another slo
gan heard in the 1919 campaign.
That is "Secure public healthy With
health securities and make health
secure."
The new phrase is spoken by the
army of white- garbed girls who be
sides selling the penny stamps are
floating a health bond on the market
in an attempt to smash the white
plague. The bonds are payable in
twelve months of perfect health and
the coupons attachexl tell wheref por
tions of the contribution enter into
work against the greatest disease
menace of the land today.
The pleas, "Won't you please hoy
Christmas Seals?" and "Won't you
invest in the fight against tuberculo
sis by buying a health bond?" is be
ing heard in all communities of
South Carolina where the ardent
workers wearing all double-barred
crosses are endeavoring to get for ttgft
Palmetto State its quota of $56,000:
In the midst of Christmas shopping
when the appeal is heard, it ie stell
to remember what .the double-barred
cross means. It is the cross of hope
which by the support of Christmas
Seals is cutting down the death rtOli
of 150,000 lives yearly in the country .
and. 2,000 lives alone in South Caro
lina. Likewise it is endeavoring., to
decrease the economic loss of over
