Snavely, director of Southeastern Division of the Red Cross, who was a recent visitor to the Columbia chapter and was present at a meeting of the executive committee, expressed himself as greatly pleased with the work done here. He spoke of Columbia as a "banner chapter," and declared that he was especially surprised and pleased at the rapidity with which the knitting battalion had been mobilized. He was sorry, he said, that materials had been delayed. Mr. Snavely said he planned to institute under the Corumbia chapter a State Red Cross woman's bureau. Woman's work has recently been removed from the supervision of Miss Noyes in Washington and placed under divisional directresses at divisional headquarters. Mr. Snavely announced that he would, a.-, soon as possible, send his divisional directress to Columbia to arrange for the State bureau here. This bureau will have jurisdiction over an Keel uross woman's work done in South Carolina by individuals, organizations, Red Cross nurses, schools and colleges. So many inquiries and requests for help come to the Columbia chapter from all over South Carolina that arrangements for handling them from here will greatly simplify matters for Atlanta, Columbia and the workers throughout the State. 0 wh7I /I Suffer? ya / Mrs. J.

The report of some sections was very heavy and caused some of the streams to rise. The writer visited at the home o*. Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Brewington Sunday in the community near the Faucett school house. They have fine crops in that community and at the school house have a fine Sunday school superintended by Mr. Carson Dav\s. This week at the school house there will be a week series of protracted meetings. We wish for much good and success with this Sunday school and meeting that there will be much good derived. Our community was shocked yesterday by the sad news of the death of Mr. J. Spears. His death was so sudden. He died in hospital at Spartanburg, and had only been there for a very short time. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Josn Spears of Jonesville who used to live in our community. We can't realize how a person in such fine looking health that was young and strong to be taken, nut as tne words wore spowen at nis funeral that we don't understand and can't see why Cod should choose those that are younjr. We wonder but don't understand how our friends are taken from us until the veil shall have been lifted and then we will know and understand. This friends was always known to have such a cheerful disposition and was liked by everybody. In this sad hour of bereavement our community has much sympathy for the bereaved home. Just at this writing the news of the death of Mrs. Fanny Carter passed away this morninp at the home of her son, Mr. J. S. Carter, at which place she had been sick for sometime. Her remains will be taken to Gilead tomorrow for burial. Mr. I.uther Recknell of Rath, S. C., visited parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Recknell Sunday. Vero. A CHILD'S TONGUE SHOWS IF LIVER OR ROWELS ARE ACTIVE ii v ross. reverisn, mck, in nous, uive Fruit Laxative at Once. Every mother realizes, after giving her children "California Syup of Figs," that this is their ideal laxative, because they love its pleasant taste and it thoroughly cleanses the tender little stomach, liver and bowels without griping. When cross, irritable, feverish or breath is bad, stomach sour, look at the tongue, Mother! If coated, give a Iteaspobnful of this harmless "fruit laxative," and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. When its little system is full of cold, throat sore, has stomach-ache, diarrhoea, indigestion, colic?remember, a good "inside cleansing" should always be the first treatment given. Millions of mothers keep "California Syrup of Figs" handy; they know a teaspoonful today saves a sick child tomorrow. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups printed on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold here, so don't be fooled. Get the genuine, made by "California Fig Syrup Company." STOP THE PAN TOTING. To the Editor of The State: Will the numerous" organizations and committees now being formed by the ladies for the purpose of conserving the food sunnlv and reducing thf? amount of food consumed to the necessary minimum, entertain a timid suggestion from one of the opposite sex. Let the members of all organizations absolutely prohibit their cooks and maids from taking home with them a bundle or pan of food when they finish their day's work. I venture the assertion that they will be surprised at the saving that such action on their part will effect. Speaking personally, at our home we do not allow the servants to take away with them one particle of food and the cooks are so well organized along this line that it is next to impossible for us to secure or keep a cook. When we inform them that they f*i in tinf fal'o o nroir Knn .11?o I they turn up their noses and refuso the place offered them. Some ladies will say that they can not enter into any such an agreement for if they did their cook would surely quit and really they can not do without her for she is such an excellent cook and has heen with thein so long until she seems just like one of the family. Maybe they are right, probably she will quit, but if she finds that the same rule is in effect at every home at which she applies for a place she will gladly Teturn to her old place. One cook who is employed by a prominent Columbia family boasted quite recently that she fed her grown daughter, her daughters husband and their child with the food that she daily carried away from her "white folks" house. It seems to me that it would be the easiest thing in the world to organize the housewives along this line and the saving it would effect, in Columbia alone, would feed a regiment recruited to war strength. Stop the pan toting and servants will be more plentiful for the drones now being fed from your table will have to go to work.?Economy in Sunday's State. LETTER FROM SUPT. GUESS. The public schools of Jonesville will begin the session of 1917 and '18 Monday morning at 9 o'clock. We desire as full an enrollment that day as possible. The importance of this can not be stressed too strongly. The chief aim of parents should be to give their children the fullest and best training possible for broadest living. We cannot afford for trivial reasons to keep or allow our children to stay away from school. This puts them behind the class, discourages the child, hampers the class, and gives the teacher eendless trouble. Not only does this apply to prompt enrollment, but punctuality and regularity as well. The teachers for the approaching session have been chosen because of special fitness for a particular place. Much care has been exercised and the trustees feel that they have been very fortunate in securing the services of these young ladies. Their names follow: Miss Mattie Matheny, first grade, (Winthrop); Miss Rose Cheyne, secfirwl hirtl / Winf ltrnn\ \f ice Blanche Rose, fourth and fifth, (Chicora); Miss Louise Barr, sixth and seventh, (Winthrop); high school? Miss Ruby West, Latin and Science, (Converse); Miss Louise Zeigler, History and English, (Winthrop); C. D. Guess, Superintendent and High School Mathematics, (Wofford). Miss bassiter will again have charge of the music department. > Let us all, children, parents, trustees and teachers cooperate to make this the best year in our school history. We have the success of former years as a foundation to build upon, land we cannot afford to fall behind. When this war is over vast changes will come over the civic, social, economic and, perhaps, religious condition and thought. Trained men and women will be in greater demand, not only from a commercial point, but in all these fields as well. It is then our patriotic duty as citizens of a new world, not just America or South Carolina, to prepare ourselves for the greatest service we can render to mankind. There should not be a single boy or girl' of school age who neglects the opportunity to receive this training, and the public schools of the land are the best places for the average child to receive it. I.et us all strive to this end?"Every boy and girl of school age in school every day this year." C. D. Guess. Jonesville, S. C., Aug. 28, 1917. LFAIONS WHITEN AND BEAUTIFY THE SKIN Make This Beauty Lotion Cheaply for Your Face, Neck, Arm and Hands. At the cost of a small jar of ordi n?fy com cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifier, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp pets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener, whitener and beautifier. Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any drug store and two lemons from the procer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fraprant lemon lotion and massape it daily into the face, neck, arms and hands. It is marvelous to smoothen rough, red hands. AMERICANS ANI) FRENCH USE DIFFERENT GREETINGS American Field Headquarters, Aup. iu. vuy fliaiij?American soldiers will have to stand for whiskery kisses, tinged with a trace of cognac?or the French poilu will have to learn to shake hands if there is to be any uniform kind of greeting over here in France. The Poilu kisses his comrade, sometimes on both cheeks, to show his admiration. The American trooper somehow prefers the old hand-clasp with a firm pump-handle movement. A war reporter who has been kissed by a whiskered French soldier, allows that he would rather shake hands if he meets many more. THAT MORNING LAMENESS. ? -I ii you are mme every morning, and suffer urinary ills, there must be a cause. Often it's weak kidneys. To strengthen the weakened kidneys and avert more serious troubles, use Doan's Kidney Pills. You can rely on a Union man's testimony. R. S. Foster, wheelwright, 95 W. Main St., Union, says: "Years of hard work brought on inflammation of the bladder and kidney trouble. I could hardly get out of bed mornings, I felt so stiff and lame. My kidneys acted too freely, obliging me to get up several times at night and the secretions burned in passage. When I reau about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a supply from the Palmetto Drug Co. I felt relieved after I had taken a few doses and one box rid me of backache. T U7QQ itAAn fivA/1 iin in ctaa/I oKorvyv '' 4 ? ww?.? 1I/4VV* up 414 Clllrt JiC. Price GOc at all dealers.
