Chamber of
Commerce Notes
Of a great deal more than or
dinary importance, and entirely de
I parting from the beaten track of
common-place meetings and lec
tures, replete with costly features,
bordering on the spectacular, but
nevertheless a truly interesting, in
structive, educational, and coopera
tive event will be the big commun
ity meeting at The Lyric Theatre,
in Sumter, at 3:30 o'clock, Monday
afternoon, May 15th.
Mr. H. S. Mobley. lecturer of
national fame and a practica'., ~uc
cessful dairy cow farmer will, on
this occasion deliver one of the
most intensely interesting illustrat
ed lectures on the "Stepmother of
the Human Race?The Dairy
Cow"?and regardless of expense
the Agri?. .ural Extension Division
of th international Harvester Co..
of America, the Sumter Creamery,
and the Sumter County Chamber of
Commerce have joined forces to
furnish Mr. Mobley with the nec
essary illustrative features to em
phasize his lecture in the shape of
two real interesting, educational,
entertaining, and instructive motion
picture reels, many large illustrat
ed lecture charts, demonstration
material, and other interesting fea
ture numbers of a program that
will prove of interest to young and
old, and which program guaran
tees "something doing every min- j
ute." i
The entire lecture and program
will be absolutely free to all who |
are interested and everybody is I
cordially invited to be present. This j
is going to be a truly community J
building lecture and demonstration,
and is costing a great deal of money j
and the expenditure of much time
and labor to pull off for the en- j
tertainment and education of our !
farmers and their families and for j
the ladies and gentlemen alike of
Sumter. This illustrated lecture
being of rare occurrence our
friends and customers of adjoin
ing counties are also invited to at
tend and join with Sumter and !
S?:mter county in enjoying and
learning much of value to every
family. No charge for admission
?no attempt to organize anything
in shape of a corporation or solicit
any stock?this will be a purely
co-operative and entertaining edu
cational event of "get together" and
beat the boll weevil to it" nature.

i The diamond market owe* its

paper money will have from day

Good diamonds sell for about $200
a carat and those of inferior qual
ity bring from $20 to $60 a carat.
The recent heavy trade in these
stones has resulted in many false
diamonds being offered on the mar
ket. Levatine traders operating
from Black Sea ports are said to
be responsible for bringing these
imitations to Russia.

IN CONVENTION
Delegates From All Parts of j
State Meet in Sumter For !
18th Annual Convention
of S. C. Division
- i
The delegates from the various j
Posts of the T. P. A. throughout
the Stale have arrived in Sumter j
to attend the eighteenth annual
convention of the South Carolina
Division, which began its session
this morning at 9:30 o'clock with I
the rgeistration of delegates at the j
county court house. The meeting I
bids fair to be one of the best of
recent conventions in spite of the i
fact that the delegation is short of
what it should be by a large peri
cent, due to the recent inclement .
weather and to the bad conditions
of the roads throughout the state, j
Many of the delegates who were j
depending upon trips by motor j
through the country found this im- j
possible at the last moment. Dele- ;
gates registering up ntil noon to- j
day frcm the various Posts of the j
State were as follows: Post A.. |
Spartanburg, registered four dele- j
gates; Post r.. Columbia. IS: Post;
C. Greenville, 11: Post D., Ander- I
son, 2: Post E.. Charleston. 13; I
Post F.. Greenwood. 27: Post G., j
Sumter. 13: Post H.. Darlington, i
15: Post L. Chester. 5: Post J., j
Newberry, 4: Post K.. Rock Hill.
6: and Post L>., Gaffney register- !
ed 1 delegate. Total number of
delegates registered were 119.
The business session of the
morning, convening at 11 o'clock
was short and snappy and one of
the most enthusiastic meetings held I
in a long time. This season was
held in the auditorium of the
court house where were arranged
seats for all delegates according
to their post. Immediately after:
the adjournment of this meeting j
the .convention repaired to the |
court house steps and a conveil- I
tion photograph made of all dele-j
gates by a special photographer i
from Columbia. I
Luncheon was then served in
the convention hall by the ladies j
of the Methodist church. These ;
luncheons were very heartily enjoy- j
ed.
Th<^ afternoon program consisted j
of the business session at 2 p. m. j
and a ride over the city at 5:30 p. j
m.. after which the convention .will
assemble again at Poealla for sup- :
per at 6:30 o'clock. Entertain- |
ment at the Lyric theatre will be j
furnished at S:30 o'clock this even-|
ing. I
Woman's Trade Union League j
Waukegan. III.. April 21? The j
National Women's Trade Union j
League, which will convene here
June 5-10. is "facing a time of
crisis." according to the conven
tion call is-ued from the national !
offices at Chicago. "Not only is thej
purpose of the trade union misrep- !
resented and consequently under;
attack." the call continues, "but'
standards of industry, won through I
long years of struggle, are likewise j
menaced. This and the compelling!
problem of unemployment present |
a great challenge. Standards in
industry mean a higher standard of
life for thexindividual, the com
munity and the nation.
"Among women we are the group
primarily responsible for fuller
measure of life for the women;
workers of our country-"
Foreign affairs and unemploy- j
ment will be considered at the '
convention.
The league reports an affiliated I
membership of approximately 000,- I
000 representing 108 occupations. ;
Its objects are defined as "the or- j
ganization of women into trade!
unions, which makes for self-gov
eminent in the work shop," edu
cation in leadership and protective!
legislation. It seeks to obtain for)
girls and women "equal opportun- ?
fty with boys and men in trades ;
and technical training and pay on I
the basis of occupation, not sex; to
obtain the representation of wo-1
men on industrial tribunals and
public boards and commissions: to!
insure the protection of the young
er girls in their efforts for better1
working conditions and a living
wage: and to provide a common
meeting ground for women of alli
groups who wish to see the prin
ciples of democracy applied to in
dustry."
Mrs. Raymond Robins of Chi
cago is president. The motto of
the League is "The eight hour day:
a living wage; to guard the home."
A vacuum is all right in its
place., but when it gets into an
auto tire or a head it is out of
place.
