CLEMENCEAU, THE LIVELY FRENCHMAN Now that the ex-Premier, Georges Clemenceau, has gone back to 1* ranee We can talk behind his back, as it were. Many years aeo, in 1777, in fact, a gallant Frenchman, Marquis do Lafette, came to this country not to lecture us but to fight in the Revolutionary War for the American colonies. He can- '*1 acl: to us in 18JI and he did not lecture then but was received everywhere with joyful greetings and was voted $'J00,'>00 br congress. But our recent visitor nns received only criticism. Not directly, but rather indirectly, the Tiger of France intimated that the United States should help France collect her German debt or to put it roughly, pull her chestnuts out of the fire. As one newspaper says,"Clemenceau does not seem to realize that the U. S. A. enlisted only for the duration of the war and not for the duration of the peace." The French people and their spokesman do not seem to realize that the more oppressive that nation is to Germany the more difficult it will be to collect their debt. Take away the means by which German industries are to thrive, with what will that defeated nation nav? France has got back from Germay the territory of Alsace-Lorraine that the Germans took in 1871. But Clemenceau claims that Germany is preparing for another war and he wants Uncle Sam to ally himself once more with France. He claims that a great crisis is approach >n?? general European war threatened. That being the case may it not be a good reason why the United States should keep out of Europe and European affairs? NEWBERRY'S SUCCESSOR The governor of Michigan has appointed as the successor of Truman Newberry, Mayor James Couzens. It will be remembered that in the recent congressional election those candidates in several states who voted for Newberry to retain his purchased seat were retired to private life. This made Newberry's seat in the senatehot for him and he resigned before the new congress would have "hance to put him out. The man appointed to take Newberry's seat was at one time connected with the Henry Ford company and it is quite fitting that he should be appointed to succeed the man whose money, about $200,000, defeated Henry Ford when he and Newberry made the race for the Michigan senatorship. Mr. Couzens is a Republican but is suui to oe a mosi nuerai one, wan no sympathy for the standpatters of hi.-< party. He is a man of great wealth for good purposes. When Mayor of Detroit, in order to cheek the abuses of the privately owned street railway system, he purchased the railway and consolidated with new city lines which gave Detroit municipal ownership and control of its own street railway. Another blessing of the election in Michigan was the defeat of Senator Townsend who was Newberry's friend and advocate. He is succeeded by a staunch Democrat Governor Ferris. , ine i\ew 1 oik vvoi ki comnu'iitin^ upon the Michigan senatorial situation says: In Mr. Couzens, Michigan aftei nearly four years of the disgrace of Newberry will again have a Senator of whom it may be justly proud. Through him and former Gov. Ferris it will have cleared itself of the reproach of keeping none but mediore reactionaries in the upper House of Congress. HOME DEMONSTRATION CLUB MARKETS IN SOUTH CAROLINA The club markets of South Carolina have attracted wide attention as is evidenced by the fact that letter, of inquiry relative to their organization have come to the Home Demonstration Department from interested parties in 28 states. , Twenty-eitfht club markets have been established in twenty-four counties; twenty of which are in operation at the present time. In most counties the sules are largest during the fruit UPU UAn Irk t iw> orvto I lor ton . 1 bo mu > kets are in most cases discontinued during the winter months. The total sales of the club market*: during eleven months of 1922 are $72 ,320.23. Individual marketing pro- I ducts through this ?.-nannel number 840. The club markets are being looked upon every where as permanent institutions, having been of untold assistance in furnishing financial aid during these days of agricultural reconstruction. / II n HWffHPHIHimilFTHIBl HOME DEMONSTRATION WORKERS MAKE SPLENDID ; SHOWING IN POULTRY?1922 Poultry work in South Craolina hat* never hud a brighter future. The in- | crease in production and the improvement in breeding has never been greater in any one year than in 1922. Under the supervision of the Home Demonstration Department, 39 Women's Clubs with 008 members, 30 Community and 3 County Poultiy Associations with a membership of 029 men and women, and 06 Boy's and Girl's Clubs with 639 members, have had instruction and individual help in poultry culture. The number of purebred fowls raised last year was, 29,876 as compared with 117,756 this year. The total value of poultry products sold and used at home amounts to $135,568.26. Reports from the county agents show that more then 361 meetings have been held with Boys' and Girls' Clubs and equally as many with adults. Much marketing of polutry has oecn done by the agents, and all fourcd ready sale on the South Carolina markets. Of the $66,31)0.48 brought from the poultry sold a great part of it found sale through the help and suggestions of the llome Demonstration Agents. Several large poultry farms have been established this year. Oni? is keeping this winter 3,000 layers, and a number have as many as 1000 hens. Numbers of large incubators have been installed and baby chicks by the thousands will be turned out next spring. No state is better suited for th; production of poultry than South Carolina and with a little more time, our farmers and breeders will keep pace with the best of poultry producing states. From an account of what Judge Card, Connecticut, had to say *ibout the quality of the Reds at the South Carolina U. I. Red Show at Chesterfield: "In variety, South Carolina R. I. Reds of single comb vaiicty are on par with any exhibit ever staged in an Eatern Show, including the biggest city of the universe. As a Northern and Eastern judge who has handled the world's best, I ant stating without equivocation or menial reservation that this grand class of Reds at Chesterfield was far superior to any exhibit I have judged 1 his season, and would compare favorably with the best winter show* North, East or West." LESS FOR EDUCATION? MORE FOR LUXURY' Wa-hington.?"Education is the vital element on the sucoe- s of any na- j tion," said the Hon. John J. Tigort, United States Commissioner of Education, in a public and industrial j teaching in such manufacturing centers as Detroit as an example of the practical value of education. Continuing, the commissioner quo ted statistics proving that the ore and one-half billion dollars spent on education in the Nation last year, while a large sum in itself, wa- pitiful when compared with the twenvy-two billions spent for luxuries. "From these statistics," lie said, "it would appear that il.e country cares more for chewing gum, cigars and cigarettes, and cosmetic;-. than it Iocs for education." Education have euaal upon this comparison as a striking argument in favor of the Towner-Sterling bill, now before Congress creating a Department of Education, with a Secretary in the President T Cabinet. The bill appropriates a hundred million dollars to be spent among the states in the aid of education. One hundred millions is the two hundred and twentieth part of last year's country-wide bill for luxuries. l>r. Tigert drew attention to tin "insidious propaganda" spread by "some agency" against the expenditure of la ret* siim? he i he fiovern merit in aid of education, and toiniod the proper and wise u-e of money in education as the salvation of thi country against many of the evils of ignorance, intolerance, and fanaticism, which menaces its prosperity.

All Peoples Have Way* of Amusing Themselves on Special Ocoaslona and at Fixed Seasons. AN OLD philosopher, who was none the less u philosopher for his constant and close observation of men, remarked that we can best Judge men's temperament nnd ideals by watching them at their work and nt their play. A keen observer would have very little difficulty In judging Americans by their work. One such has aptly called this country "The Land of tho Strenuous Life." | Even our sports partake so much of i this strenuoslty that the medical pro- ' fesslon Is beginning to warn us of overindulgence In the more violent forms of athletics. But all peoples have ways of amus- | lug themselves on speclnl occasions and at tlxed seasons after a manner so well established that It has come to he regarded a kind of ritual, says the New York Herald. This has come down to us from the ages when our forebears first pushed their way out of the dry tablelands of civilization. ijven tm? mighty power or the churches has not been able to brush aside some < practices 'that have their roots deep In pnganVtm. Old Customs That Continue. Probably after Halloween and Christmas there is no festival of the year so girt about with long-established customs as New Year's day. Among the hest known of these are the auguries drawn from what was called the "Candlemas hull." In Scotland and other northern Countries the term Candlemas, given to this season nf tl>n vtMir k sr tnsiiwl t<i hnvo l?o/l its origin in religious ceremonies performed by eandle liglit. The candles used wore very la. go and highly ornamented, and were brought In at the midnight hour to the assembled guests, who, since the falling of dusk, had been drinking freely of the wassail l.ow I. Then, In procession, they marched out Into the night, and to their Imaginations the passing clouds assumed the shape of a bull. From the rise and fall and general motions or tnese clonus tile seer foretold good or bad weather. Sometimes, too, auguries for the future were gathered from the state of the atmosphere ou New Year's Kve. and also from the force and character of the wind. In the imagination of most prirnitiv" peoples, especially those of the North, who were forced to battle ngainst the elements of nature for life and sustenance, the eves of great leasts wore considered occasions when the spit its of good and evil were in deadly conflict. The moment of midnight on New Tear's Eve was always considered a time of special actlvlt.v for the spirits of evil. In order to overcome them holler and more powerful Influences had to he invoked. The evil spirits, or genii, as can be gathered from .the Icelandic and Anglo-Saxon folklore, nnrt even from words in their dialect, could he overcome by nn appeal to the good genii, the lioghmen, or hillmen. Probably Imported from Italy wns the superstition that on New Year's Eve the "evil eye" was all the more malignant. Then, to?, there was a widespread practice of the "setting of mete or drynke by nights on the honche to fede Allholde or fjohlyn." In some of the dialogues of the famous medieval morality play, "Dives and Pauper." we find mention of this and many other New Year's customs Intended to counteract the activities of the forces of evil. Chrlstmes Cheer Continued. Perhaps what contributed most to rr..n?Mn 1 4\*.. ~ I ... <1 in- "i n-.ii in .^iiii>ut iioiiieuces was the deep drinking among the penI?1 ?*. which continued almost uninterruptedly from Christmas until New Year's day. ITp to the Ninth century, except in the Syrian and Coptic churches. New Year's was not cele- | lualed as a special feast day, hut was looked upon as merely the octave of Christmas. Therefore the Christinas cheer was continued throughout the entire octave without abatement. It flickered up for the last time on New Year's day, as Is elear from the one hundred and ninety-eighth sermon of Augustine, ldshnp of Jllppo. In England on New Year's Eve the ymiiig women went about carrying the "wassail howl" and singing from door to door certain verses?a custom which had much in common with tiie hogmanay practice In Scotland. Ilet pint, the strange brew which in that country was carried about Iti the streets at midnight, was composed of ale, sj Irits. sugar, nutmeg or clnnumon. lr was a powerful potion, the effects of which were almost immediately evident. It It son in a collection of ancient songs gives us a few sung to the quailing* of this "prince of liquors, ol?l or now." one such Is: A Jolly wasscl bowl. A waned of poofl nip. Well faro the butler's soul That setteth this to sale; Out Jolly wassel! Notwithstanding the opposition which It hits met since the year 1811, when ninny abuses were discovered In the practice, tlie custom of hurrying lirst across the threshold of his sweetheart lias been practiced by many a young lad In Anglo-Saxon countries. The young lady listened attentively from the time the midnight hells ceased to ring to catch the Orel footfall on the hoot. 1 tie welfare of the family, particularly the fairer portion of It, was sup posed to depend upon the character of the first comer after the midnight hour had sounded. Great care was taken to exclude all Improper persons, especially as the midnight Intruder enjoyed the privilege of Imprinting a "hearty kiss'* on the lips of the expectant Inssle. Bestowing Gifts. The custom of bestowing gifts has become so inextricably linked with the New Year's celebrations In Paris tli^t New Year's day Is still called the Jour d'Estronnes. This custom seems to have had its rise In the conduct of the nobles of the lata Middle ages, who ;w?w in ihi habit ox rarownqf |iKi upon their sovereign. Naturally the 'ruler, not wishing to remain under obligations to them, returned the gift In ,a princely fashion. In England, however, especially In the time of Queen Elisabeth, this custom became so burdensome that It occasioned general protest among the nobles. "Good ' Queen Bess" was not slow to Indicate Just what kind of gifts she expected,' or rather exacted. She let It be known also what consequences would follow the withholding of the jewels i and the silks which she looked for at the hands of her subjects. She was so niggardly In her own gifts that we can understand how the custom fell Into disuse and In the time of George IV was abandoned. i.nc kkiuk ui kins whs aisu very common among the people. On Christmas. nnd often on St. Stephen's day, 1 employers, parents and masters presented Christians boxes to their dependents. It was a form df Christ- ' mas charity. On New Year's day, however, gifts were exchanged be- ! tween friends nnd acquaintances as a sign of good will. This custom, perhaps, had Its origin In the box which was taken uhoard every vessel that sailed out of port during the octave of Christmas and which was not to . 1 hp opened until the return of the ves- j I sel. Contributions were to be dropped ' I Into this box, large or small, according i ! as the day had been propitious or oth- ! erwlse. The person to whom the con: tents of the box were given was snp! posed to have a mass said for the mariners who had made the gift. ITence the name of "Christmas boxes," ! which were given up to and Including ! New Year's day. Each one of thepe | dnys became known as "boxing day." JANUARY FIRST DRAWS NEAR.

Mr. Owsley urged the retaining of sufficient Army and Navy so that it would not be necessary to rely upon ether nations while the United' States is training its armed forces in' any future conflicts. G. L. Folbre, of Dallas, adjutant of the Texas department, also drew the attentioir of the Legion men to the fact that untrained troops were sent to the front line during the World War. "While serving at the front with the 32d division, I transferred men to replacement troops and saw them ! into the front line trenches and shot down when they could have protected themselves had they been trained even in the use of rifles," Mr. Folbre said, "Many of these men had been drafted into service between six weeks and two months before they were rushed into action."t The views of the Texas Legion official were supported hy Auston A. Pe icrson, Wisconsin adjutant, who urged the adjutants "to realize the seriousness of the preparedness situation at this time, particularly in view of the ever increasing danger of the *: ? >? a ui i\i.-u diHi nvrai ii<m ({UCMlUil. Other Legion speakers urged the adjutants to encourage voluntary training on a larger scale in the high school:;, colleges, universities, and physical training in graded schools. It was asserted that the enlisted drength of the regular United States Army at this time is even below the1' lat t figure set by congress.

Having decided to'seck aid from the mi)it:.ry, they brought with thoin their greatest orutor, ltuiiaing Antelope (Tahincasuln Inyanke), u tine-looking, digniiied old warrior, to present their cause. Itunnihg Antelope described ut length the distressing condition of the tribe and denounced their agent, accusing all agents of dishonesty. At this point (Seneral Custer interrupted and asked the interpreter to say to the chief that the Great Father selected only good men for agents befo:e sending them out from Washington. When this was explained to Running Antelope be smiled grimly and, through the interpreter, replied: "Well, they may be good men when they leave the Great Futher, but they get to be <1?il cheats by the time they reach us." Ai lor tne council was over, tiencrai I'ii icr invited illuming Antelope and his chiefs into a dining room of his mini tors for u least. Dignitied and impressive as the old chief was while speaking in a council, lie was not so admirable as a table companion. After gorging himself on everything in sight, he emptied the plates and swept the remains of the feast from the very noses of his headmen, into the folds of his robe. Then lie belted it at his waist, making a capacious haversack, grunted his appreciation of the hospitality and stalked from the room.
