Men who have always worn overalls are claiming in some cases that the adoption and use of overalls by the general public, will, according to law of supply and demand, make them more costly to those who have always worn them and have to wear (hem in the future. Dealers in clothing claim that it is unju<t to single them out for discrimination or boycotting. That it is a fad is shown by the fact that Mrs. Lon^worth, wife of the Ohio Congressman and daughter of Theodor-* Roosevelt, is said to have donned expensive silk overalls and of course other hiirh society people will follow suit. The (ieortfia Federation of Labor has adopted resolutions to the effect that there can come no material benefit from the advocacy of this movement, but it only increases the cost of overalls for those who are compelled to wear them. A PARLOR PARTY In Chicago they have started a movement for a new political party. The announcement is made by the committee of IS that the new party "represents the needs and hopes of average American men and women, will conduct an aKKr(,ssivc campaign against both the reactionary old partics and in support of a constructive programme of economic, social and political progress." This is not very enlijrhteninjr and it is probable that the new party is oumcw n,it <>i mi' iiiuui u <>i imc organization that a certain rather exclusive Kentucky statesman wishes to form. IK* was opposed, lie said, to both the Democratic and Republican parties, hut wished to form a part} of gentlemen whom he could assemble in his parlor.

PITY THE BLIND That was a very pathetic scene in i London recently when .'{,000 blind people marched through the streets of that city. .Most of them had been i blinded in the war and they came from all parts of Great Britain and Ireland.

Champ Clarke has given out i the information that if the Democrat1 ie nomination for the Presidency is offered he will take it. Mr. Clarke made this characteristic statement, when asked if he was a candidate for the nomination: "1 have not lifted, and do not intend to lift my linger or open my mouth to get the nomination. All that 1 have ever said is that 'Barkis is Willin.' " Mr. Clarke does not mean by this of course, that he is the only Democrat who can he elected, for there are others, several of them, one of whom may win the prize. In fact, the exSpeaker is not the only Barkis. GUARDING AGAINST THE PINK BOLL WORM Clemson College, April 30.? The South Carolina Crop Pest Commission has taken strong defensive action against the possible artificial introduction of the Pink Boll Worm into this State by issuing a quarantine which should adequately protect against this destructive cotton pest. Prof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist for the commission, says that while the order may seem drastic to those not knowing fully the conditions, rigid restrictions are necessary until the Federal Horticultural Board and Texas and Louisiana take strong: action. The quarastinc order, the text of which has been published, prohibits importation into South Carolina from all foreign countries, Texas, and Louisina, lint, linters, waste, etc.; seed cotton, cotton seed, hulls; machinery, bagging, and other materials used in connection with growing, harvesting or baling of lint and seed, i It provides that such materials as might cause artificial introduction of the pink boll worm may be shipped into this state from states other than Texas and Louisiana upon special permits issued by the South Carolina Crop Pest Commission after satisfactory evidence has been shown to establish the safety of such shipment | from possible infestation. I With such protection it is hoped p.v the Commission that the Pink Boll Worm will not reach South Carolina to add its destructive force to that of the Mexican boll weevil.

According to internal revenue co,ors not a member of the Salvai Army in the United States reved enough salary last year to ke an income tax return. Commander. Evangeline C. Booth. highest ranking Salvationist in United States, received less than 000 salary in 1919. rhus is nnswered the question ocsionally asked in some quarters: iat percentage of the money given Salvation Army for charitable -poses goes into high slaries for its cers. rhe report of the officials in charge income tax returns shows that le of it goes into "high" salaries 1 that only a small per cent, of it ts into extremely low salaries ich they receive. 'If you wish to get rich don't join Salvation Arms." says ComandBooth. "Our workers are paid just >ugh to meet their living expenses I when they become old or disablfrom any.cause they do not have worry because they have not laid worldly fortunes. The Salvation ny attends to all their needs." lommander Booth is now touring southern states in behalf of the vation Army's second home sers fund appeal, set for May 10 to and will deliver addresses in sevI cities explaining the work of the nation Army and showing what j iccotnplishes with the funds en- k ited to it by the public, to-.r iirirrAi HfttlffliHl4liMillfiff 1 , , - J- . _ ' II I II I II en miles used > be a long waq a difference in sition?finding out wh motor-car days, wants in a tire and g r point in the hi:n that. irdly more than /// the corner."
