The children, ranging from 9 to 14 years of age- are organized into a soviet. They elect a camp executive and a discipline committee. Comrade John, age 9, has as much voting power as the camp director. A staff of nine persons, all youthful, assist in the educational and other activities of the camp. Daily lessons in history with emphasis on the class struggle are a part of the camp life. Swimming and other jports occupy much of the time- Revolutionary preparedness is stressed. “Some day I'll be leading a women's battalion and then you’ll get It,” or "I’ll make you dig all the trenches some day" are typical threats of the child communists. Their songs refer constantly to an impending revolution. Used to Cold Water During the visit of a communist official from Chicago one little girl shivered on the lake shore in her bathing suit while the others splashed in the water. “The water’s cold,” she replied when asked why she did not join the others. “You'll have to stand more than cold water in the picket lines,” the official said. "Did you hear all about how little children went with their mothers to the lines not long ago and . had big streams of cold water shot at them from hoses, just like you’ve seen firemen use?? You’ll have to ■get used to cold water." A pat on the back by this woman and the little girl lifted her chin and marched into the lake. o * PETERSON NEWS * Piney Bryan visited Mr. and Mrs. Bill Bryan Monday evening.

C., Aug. 7. — (U.R> — Traditional, old-fashioned southern hospitality has created an atmosphere of carnival and good-fellowship preparatory to the formal opening tomor row of mammoth Cooper river bridge —a -i-mile double Cantilever span, the largest bridge of its kind in the world. Indicative of the size of the bridge, built at a cost of $6,000,000, is the fact that the distance is 1,000 feet oetween the supporting piers in the center of the main stream and Iretween the piers of the lesser span 600 feet. The concrete roadway deck is 160 feet from the high water mark. The combined Cantilever span and trestle work far exceed any previous attempt and place this bridge in a class by itself. The largest ships afloat can pass under it with no inconvenince and there are not a dozen afloat which would have to lower the top mast tip. Room for 1.400 Cars Built for vehicular traffic only, the 20-foot wide concrete roadway, it is estimated, can accommodate 1,400 automobiles at a time. With the opening of the Cooper river bridge the highway routes from the far north to the far south eventually will be shortened by several score miles. The proposed improvement of the highway along the At-

lantlc coast from Washington to Charleston via the Cooper river bridge will eliminate 40 miles for the autolst. The bridge not only serves to shorten the distance to Charleston hut also opens up a hitherto undeveloped and fertile agricultural and potentially wealthy agricultural urea to the west. From the inner rim of Charleston harbor or from the outskirts of the city the huge bridge towers above the city sky line and itself resembles a monument to the skill and vision ot the men who designed and built it. The low level surrounding country causes un even greater impression of heighth and vastness and the bridge, seen from tlie highways lending Into the city, seems to stretch across the roofs of the tallest buildings. From the bridge itself the views of the historic city of Charleston, the adjacent beaches, the converging rivers and beautiful harbor is remarkable. For Economical Moving and Transfer, call W. F.

PIT 143 TINIES Famous cleaning product, new to homes, leaves paint as good and as lustrous as new MAKE TEST YOURSELF Here is a special cleaning product for painted surfaces. Cheat hospitals, hotels and office buildings have refused to use anything else for years. Now for the first tune it is offered to homes. Its name is Wyandot. Wyandot is superior to anything you ever tried. It can be used constantly on the finest paintwork without ever dulling the gloss. Recently this fact was conclusively demonstrated to a woman who didn’t believe there was a product made which was safe for paint. A glossy white door was thumbprinted with greasy dirt. Wyandot removed every trace of it. This operation was repeated in exactly the same spot 143 times before the slightest wear showed under a microscope. (And you know how quickly your unaided eyes can see the effects of “pot-and-pan” cleansers on paint and porcelain.) Needless to say the woman was convinced. • Only 15c for handy package— at your grocer’s. Read the label. Fulfills every promise ®r your money back.
