COI PEE SAVED EltOM TITANIC
Now Got Divorce-Man Concerned
Now at Aiken, S. C.
Philadelphia, Pa., .Ian. 22 "Cruel
and barbarous treatment" was the;
ground of the divorce granted last
June to Mrs. Lucile Polk Carter, now
Mrs. George Crooke, ol' Cirdsboro,
Ca., from William E. Carter, of Kose- \
mont. Thia was learned, although
the records were Impounded.
Perhaps tho most interesting part 1
ol' the record is the short paragraph
relating to the escape of the Carters
from the Titanic.
"On April 1 _', 19 I 2," Mrs. Carter
said, according lo the record, "we
sailed for America on the Titanic.!
When the Titanic struck my husband
came to our stateroom and said: 'Get j
up and dress yourself and the chil
dren.' 1 never saw him again until
I arrived at Hie Carpal bia al 8
o'clock Ibo next morning, when I saw
him leaning on the rail. All he said i
was that he had bad a Jolly good
breakfast and thal he never thought
I would make it."
Mr. Carter, who is at Hie Wilcox
Hotel, Aiken. S. C., did not appear to !
testify.

20-CENT COTTON, SAYS ll MELIN.
Diversified Paint lng Works Dawn of
Now Era in the Sont li.
Washington, Jan. 23.-Represen
tativo Heliin. of Alabina. told the
House to-day he expected to see the!
price of cotton "go up to around 20
cents" in the winter ol' 1915.
"The day ol' di ve rsi fled farming lias
come in the South," he said. "There
in tho dawn of a new day. My peo
ple have been taught hy a hitter ex
perience to lo oak the shackles that
lia ve hound them to one idea of
farming. The day is coming, not far
off. when the Heids will blossom,
along with colton, with corn, oats,
wheal and pens. With those a.s the
bas?! of supplies, as a fortification,
the farmer will dictate the prices of
colton to the world.
"King cotton no longer will lie the
only product, on the Southern farm,
but just one of a multiplicity of pro
ducts. No longer will it be a burden,
but a blessing. With the strength
that the diversified ideas give the far
mer, cotton will be given lier place in
Hie markets of the earth."
Mr. Ilellin contended "bear specu
lators" had used the power the farm
ers had placed in their hands to beat
down the price of cotton. Farmers
now, be said, would refuse to sign
notes and mortgages that come due in
November and December, so as lo
lea vii Hie "period from August lo De
cember ir? tree and unshackled and
to leave the farmer as the absolute
master of his business to sell or not,
just as he may see Ht."

Cse Wilt-ltcsisttmt Seed.
Somebody estimates that the South
loses about $10,000,000 annually as
the result of the ravages of cotton
wilt and root-knot. South Carolina
boars a large part ol' this loss. It is
not dil'icult, however, to protect one's
cotton crop from wilt. The use of
wilt-resistant varieties of cotton is
the course urged hy the botany di
vibi' of Clemson College, and this
division is co-operating with a num
ber ol farmers In the State who are
producing carefully grown seed of
these resistant varieties to sell to
farmers who need it. The botany/
division of Clemson College will he
glad to answer questions about wilt
and root-knot.

TO HAVE MOY MOS IX SCHOOLS ?
Senator Venter's Hill Created Con
slderable I llscusston.
(Tho State, 23d. )
After an hour of debate, which
was continued from Thursday's ses
sion, the Senate yesterday refused to
strike out tilt* enacting words of the
bill offered by Senator Venter, of
Oconee, to authorize moving pictures
in public schools. An amendment
places tlie censorship of the films in i
the hands of the State Coard of Edit- i
cation, and another amendment ex-I
empts M counties of the State from
compliance with the provisions of
the bill.
Senator Vertier stoutly defended
his measure against the objections
previously raised. He said that it is
not a "dangerous" bill, as it does not ,
"compel" any ono to have moving |
pictures. He maintained that mov- |
ing pictures in schools would not
hurt the eyes of the children any
more than the pictures in the thea- ?
tres. He said that he favored the '
proposed a mend nient to place the
censorship of the films in the hands !
of the ('nunty Superintendent of Ed
ucation.
Senator Wightman . objected to
the bill on the ground that there- are
more pressing conditions which
should be remedied. Senator Sharpe
said that the bill is "not meritori
ous," and that he had heard no de
mand for BUeh a bill. Senator Epps,
of Sumter, objected to the hill, say
ing that it is impractical. Senator
Appelt favored the bill, subject to
a mend mont s.
By a vote of 2 1 to la the Senate
refused to strike out the enacting
words of Senator Vernor's bill.
