AS TO OVERALLS
There are evidently two sides to
the overall fad as to most other
propositions. 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.

i An important eonforence upon the
i subject was held by Attorney Gen

| Justice and it is stated that prompt
1 and efficient action will follow,
j it i intimated that the government
may take over and bundle all sugar.
The statement was made in this connection
that there is enough sugar in
the country, but that it is being
j hoarded.
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.
They visiled London to call attention
to the failure of the government
| to deal adequately with the problem

"BARKIS IS WILLIN"
! lion. 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. I

INCOME TAX WORRIES
FOR SALVATIONISTS
i
_____
itlanta, Ga.f May 3?Every mem- j
of the Salvation Army, from the 1
hest ranking officer to the youngsoldier
in the ranks of the organtion,
has at last found somethinK
ich they do not have to worry
ut.
t's the salary income tax.
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
