Perhaps no county in this section will ever build a mo tt1nent to the boll Weevil--there Isn't the necessity, for we have gone a longer way in the direction of diversified farming than they have in most sections of the South, where they have not been trou bled with the pest. But Georgia and South Carolina have done much to be cole corn'1-growing, pork-producilng states. We have gone in- for wheat inl the past few years and found we could raise all our breadstuffs and we have gone in for cattle-raising and dairying to sonme extent.

In Thomas Burke's story, "The Chink and the Child," taken from "Limehouse Nights," Lucy, the daughter of "Bat tling Burrows," is supposed to be '12 years old, but with the license of the artistic producer, iMr. Grillfith took the liberty of adding three years to her age.
