DEMOCRATS
GATHER AT
COURTHOUSE
County Organization
Perfected With New
Officers. Delegates
to State Convention
Elected
The democrats of Sumter county
met in biennial session today at
the Court House at twelve o'clock.
The meeting was called to order by
H. Drane Tindal, vice chairman.
After the calling of the club rolls
to ascertain if a quorum was pres
ent, the convention went into the
election of temporary officers. iVlr.
H- G. Osteen was unanimously
elected president of the convention
and J. B. Duffle, secretary. Later
the temporary organization was
raa^e permanent and the same of
ficers were named as county chair
man and secretary in accordance
with the usual custom. The con
vention was held in an orderly
manner and for the first time sev
eral ladies were in attendance as
delegates. .
One of the first resolutions
brought before the convention was
that sponsored by J. E. DuPre, of
Pisgah Club, condemning the prac
tice of the legislature in holding its
sessions on Sunday. The delegates
to the state convention were in
structed to present a' similar res
olution to the convention and do
all in its power to put an end to
sittings on the Sabbath.
After some discussion a resolu
tion by E. W. Dabbs, Jr., stating
the policies of the convention was
adopted as amended. This resolu
tion called for the support of the
agricultural interests and com
mended the work of the farm bloc
in congress.
Mr. Davis D. Moise then brought
up the resolution passed by Ward
2 voters as to the division of this
portion of Sumter into two clubft.
The resolution was adopted by
unanimous consent and authority
was asked of the state convention
to have such division made.
Upon motion of Geo. D. Levy,
the woru of Solicitor Frank A. Mc
Leod was lauded ^.nd his candidacy
for re-election endorsed by the con
vention, i
Upon motion of John B. Duffie
a rising vote of sympathy was ac
corded Ex-President Woodrow Wil-1
son and the president instructed
to send the following telegram to
him:- "The democrats of Sumter^
county in ; onvention ; assembled I
send you greetings. We learn with;
gladdened hearts of your improved'
state of;.health. We are mindful!
of 'the unselfish" services you h?ve j
rendered the party in the past and |
express the hope rthat your health!
will -permit manv more vears of
usefulness to mankind."
At the request of the president of'
the convention, S. K. :Xash, Esq.,
then read a communication from
Geo. W. Beckett, of Beaufort, as:
to the evil and injustice of taxing j
county candidates in the primaries !
to defray expenses of state aspir
ants for office. The letter was re- j
eeived as information and no ac- j
tton taken thereon.
A comimttee consisting of R. D. j
Epps, Geo. D. Levy and C. M. J
Hurst was appointed to draw up
suitable resolutions of respect to'
the memory of the late Senator:
John H Clifton, who for many years;
served, as county chairman. Copies
of these resolutions were ordered
printed arid sent to the family of j
the deceased.
The next matter in order was
the election of the state executive
committeeman and of delegates
to the state convention. H. L.
Scarborough was elected state exe
cutive committeeman and the fol
lowing delegates and alternates
were also elected: R. D. Epps, D. i
D. Moise. C. J. Jackson, H. B. Rich
ardson. Jr.. R. B. Belser. S.

vention than adjourned

In view of the Russian susp

jths way to arrange an anti-Rus
i siau military alliance, it is interest
I ing to note that the four states
j agreed that if one of them was at
j tacked by another state without
; provocation the other three would
; observe a favorable attitude to
: warxi the state attacked so that es
| sential steps could be taken with
i out delay.
Representatives of the four coun- I
j tries mutually agreed that all con
flicts and disputes between them
j should he settled in an amicable
I manner only.
j All important nusetions upon
i "which the four may be unable to
[agree are tc be referred to a court
j Of arbitration in accordance with
I the rules of the Lsague of Nation::;.
Each of the four contracting
j states is obligated in future to in
j form the other three states of the
I texts of agreements concluded by
; that state with any other nation.
The convention is to hold good
' for five years and to he automati
cally renewed thereafter from year
j to year unless a six months' notice

shaping future course of values, i
perhaps effect the size of this year's j
crop, was attended by more rain
in the western half and in the)
Carolinas, and prospects are for
the continuance of unsettled weath- j
er in nearly all districts of the!
belt, especially in the southwest j
where dry weather is needed most.
It is. imperative for an early re
turn of good weather inland if a
good crop is to be made this year, j
and all indicatio' point to the
need of a large yield for next sea- j
son's requirements as planting is
reported backward, with the prob-J
ability of much replanting being1
necessary in Texas as result of the j
recent torrential rains? in that im
portant state.
While the situation is not irre-1
parable, the outlook can be made |
better by the return of favorable I
weather only, of which there are
no-Signs of at the moment, as tern-,
peratures remain too low for satis- \
factory germination and the con-1
tinuance of showers in some in
stances heavy rains, prevent pro-!
gress of farm work.
There is one redeeming feature j
of present conditions and that is
that we may be sure of there be-1
ing a good season in the ground
in nearly all sections of the belt,
particularly in Texas and Okla-1
homa something which was lack- j
ing last year in nearly all dis- !
tricts of the interior.
If two or three weeks of dryj
weather could be had in the coun
iry. farmers would push planting j
to oompleton and good stands j
would likely result from the more;
than ample moisture in the soil but|
if rains, or alternating rains are;
to continue inland, planting and!
cultivation would be further inter-!
ferred with which would not onlyj
expose the plant to damage by thej
weevil, but to' possible injury at j
maturity in event of an early frost
next fall. . ?
On the other hand the immediate
future course of values will likely
he influenced by fresh develop-j
nients at Genoa as political Eu
rope and the world at large are in
terested in the final outcome of the
conference. It" the news is favor
able it would probably help market
materially. but if unfavorable.
values are apt to be depressed, if
only temporarily.
Press advices from Genoa are to
effect that the conference may
break up immediately after Wed
nesday plenary session unless the
Russian's indicate some quick solu
tion of their problem is possible.

his hair stand on end on the top
of his head to a height of six
inches.
"The Fijian dandy wears at night
a compressing band which is prob
ably as uncomfortable as curling
pins to train his thick, stiff and
wiry bush to this remarkable
feat," the bulletin says. "When it
becomes long and erect he takes a
looking glass, entrusts his scissors
to a trusty friend and under his
personal supervision the mop is
trimmed with wonderful skill into
a ragged halo that stands out in
pompous array around his shiny
black face.

the coiffure to a sickly yellow with
lime made from coral or dyes' it
red with annatto. To further en
hance his charm he rubs in scent
ed coconut oil and then sticks sev
eral varieties of red flowers into
it. One traveler reports that his
guide turned up one morning with
'his mahogany bush of hair adorn

three kinds of white, a bunch Of
green-and-white ribbon-grass and
an aigrette of fern.' And when it

to conquer, instead of , announcing
her debut in the newspaper she

men who prize their liberty take

Make Their Hair a Utility
"South of Mahamaniha in Mada
gascar the women do their hair in
twp rows of little balls, while be
hind their heads they place a
piece of hollow wood ornamented
with brass-headed nails and fast
ened into the hair. In this cylinder
they keep all their pins, needles and
small valuables. Near the coast
on the same island the women plait
the hair in very fine braids which
they twist into thin flat circular
coils of from one to two and a half
inches in diameter. These little
coils of hair entirely encircle the
head, and, strange to say, they give
an elegant, though rather singular,
appearance.
"The Seviilian women who idles
her hair on the top of her head in
to a little fortress is following the
custom which Spanish women have
practiced for hundreds of" years.
Artemidorus, is the sixth century
before Christ, tells of the extrava
gant headdresses of Iberian women
and they also are shown in the
prehistoric statuary of the country.
"Dig chiefs in some parts of
New Guinea wear rigid plaited
frames on their heads which sup
pert cassowary or paradise feath

cassowary feather is the dis

but wearers are unable to enjoy
to the fullest the big celebrations
because of the heaviness of these
