There was ais0 some dis. cussion as to whether the Club should wait until ' more funds had accumulated before further beauti fying the grounds, but Mrs E G Holden, with that t'aith that "move mountains," came to the rescue and the club, catching a glint of 'that indomitable courage, moved in a oody to start the work along, and .ook to the finances afterward ! knowing that the funds would be iorthconuiig. Mrs. Frost informed the club that as a telephone was much needed, and it was not thought 1 advisable to draw on the account at ' chis time, six members had private, ly donated each a months subscrip. ! cion to a telephone, and that others ! would no doubt offer their aid.

The growth of the textile industry in the South within the past two decades has been one of the out standing features of American in- 1 dustrialism. Beginning in the days following the civil war. the South without capital^ credit^ or any ot the the facilities that might natur ally be looked for in thefounding of an industry/ went ahead and in spite of the natural handicaps man. aged to meet competition and in crease its cotton manufacturing plants until in 1924 there were 18 000,000 spindles below the Mason. Dixon line and hundreds of thou sands of active looms. At first content with spinning yarn for the consumption of north, ern and eastern mills, the industry gradually developed plants where cloth goods were finished ready for the market. In 1914 the Shamrock Damask Mills were constructed in Landrum by J. R. Mallory and Hi L# Spears^ with 20 looms for the manufacture of mercerized damasks. Ag the de. mand for this class of goods is creased the capacity of the plant was increased to 65 looms with an output of 1^250,000 yards of mercer, ized damask yearly. Contrary to established cusutomj Mr. Mallory a native of Birming. ham> Ala.f who had been engaged in the manufacture of cotton goods in Gaffney, S. C,f decided to use only men in the manufacture of his< Hay"e's 133rd BRhday On November 10, 1791, one hun. ert Young Hayne, statesman and pi oneer railroad promoter, was born at St. Paul's Parish, Colletin District, South Carolina. The history of this eminent South Carolinian is of is of peculiar interest to Southern Railway men on account of his activ ity in promoting the building of a line of railway extending from South Carolina over the mountains to the Ohio River. The present through route o^ the Southern Railway Sys tem from Charleston to Cincinnatti, , via Spartanburg and Asheville." stands today as the practical reali zation of the dream he did not live to see fulfilled. Hayne was one of the most dis inguished and briliant men South Carolina ever produced. During the war of 1812, he served as a captain in the Third South Carolina regi ment. Admitted to the bar before he became of age, he launched early on a paiblic career which found him at 23 years of age a member of the South Carolina legislature and at 82 a member of the United States Sen ate. In December, 1832 he was elected govornor of his native state and held that office until 1834. He is best known to fame for debate with Daniel Webster in the United States Senate in 1830 on the question of the relation of states to the Fed eral government, .... | In 1833, South Carolina had wit. nessed the completion of the South Carolina Railroad from Charleston to Hamburg, then the longest ralL road in the world. Hayne and others conceived a . still greater scheme of connecting Charleston with the Ohio River by a line of ralL way extending across the Appalach ian range. His great ambition was, by so breaking, down the barriers of the mountains, "to mould int? one brotherhood the now estranged and alienated inhabitants of our widely extended republic." The company that afterwards was known as the Louisville, Cincinnatti & Charleston Railroad Company was chartered on December 19, 1835. To promote this enterprise, the famous "Knoxville convention" was held at Knoxville, Tenn., on July 4, 18*?. Hayne presided over this convention, which was attended by delegates from all the interested states. "The Knoxvillp convention, "says & histor ian "may be considered the begin, ning of the railroad system of the South as it exists today, and aL though its plans were never literally consummated, its importance in the railroad history of the South cannot be considered he less/' Hayne was president of the Louisville, Cincinnatti k Charleston Railroad from 1336 until his death, which occured at Ashe, line. This policy still holds good and the remarkable success of tkl plant may be in part attributed to that unusual condition. Outside of the few skilled opens, tives who came to Landrura with Mr. Mallory when the plant was es tablished, the employees are all na. tives of the city and county? med who live and own homes in Lta. drum and who are deeply interested in the growth and snooeBt of tks plant with which they are connect, ed. Last year the plant was one of the few on South Carolina to fee awarded a bonus by an 1,1 tyrants company because et a ' complete lack of injury to employees MB accidents. Not an operative in the Shamrock plant was injured daring the year while engaged at fee The Shamrock Kills manufaotarc mecerized damasks and bed spreads in plain and fancy weaves in whits, pink, blue, heliotrope and gold. Their product is sold through Weet Baker & Company of New York and the demand to* Shamrock, Damasks has always exceeded the supply, the plant having , been in continuous operation twsnty-C on r hours each day since it wae bunt, Mrs, H, L. Spears, prssident of the corporation is probably the only woman in the south acting as chief executive of a textile plant.

Allen Start ft ouarlotte Loses Considerable Skin. Drivers Unininred. Mrs. Elizabeth P. Williams and J, Allen Stuart narrowly escaped serL ous injury Wednesday morning when the car in which they were en route to Columbus collided with the Home Ice Company's track driven by Lee Underwood. "he truck turning into the high, way from the road leading to the Kityin estate which makes a sharp turn around a high point obscuring the view of the highway, ran direct ly in front Qf the car driven by Mrs. Williams an& before either vehicle could be checked the crash occured. Mr. Stuart, who is auditing the county school books for a Charlotte concern, was thrown ont of the car nad on to the pavement. Bruises and scratches resulted. - Mrs, WilLf liams retained her presence of mind and stuck to the wheel, escaping un. injured. Both trucjc and car were badly smashed up. It was a narrow squeak for all concerned, especially for the genial son ofBonny Scotland.

His chief hurt seemed to be that injuries to his hand might prevent him playing his usual game of golf on Thanksgiving Day.

We learn from visitors to Tryon who recently arrived from New York that the train crews have been instncted to be on the alert for debris and logs which are strewn all along the ' mountain routes as the result of the numerous forest fires which are raging In places enroute. In one place some, where near the . the Virgin!^. Caro lina border a whole forest of pines and hemlock ablase presented a sight that would have tickled Nero. In Tryon we have noticed that on certain days the sun was surround, ed by a smoke screen and the smell of burning wood was apparent. The long drought has sapped the treee of their molsturue and burning coals from the train engines Ignite whatever thev come in contact with and fanned by the strong winds prevalent In the mountain, country soon start fires which are very hard to control by the time they are discovered.
