Calhoun Falls.

In company with more than hundred
of our citizens, we went down to Calhoun
Falls last Friday to attend the first auc.
ton sale of lots advertised to take place
that day by. the Western Carolina Land
and Improvement Company of this city.
The morning was cloudy and threatening
rain, but the clouds soon disappeared and
the day was most delightful one. In ad-
dition to the train from Anderson, spe-
cial was run from Augusta, and from
Greenwood over the Georgia, Carolina 81
Northern Road. The crowd numbered
FIVE or six hundred people, and was COM
posed of citizens from all the neighboring
counties in Georgia.
AS is we'll known the town site is located
at the crossing. of the Savannah Valley
Roads, and lies in what is known as the
"Flat Woods" section of AbbeYille County.
It is q very pretty location, and is sur
rounded By some of the richest farming
lands in the State. A very neat and sub
stantial depot has already been erected by
the latter named Road. For several days
preceding large force of hands had been
at work opening up the streets and laying
| off the lots.
In the center of the town site large
shed had been erected, and here the crowd
assembled about p. m., when the sale
commenced, Col. O. v. Walker, of Au-
| gusta, being the auctioneer. Before be.

duced Capt. P. z. McCully, President of
the Company, who delivered the address
of welcome. he spoke for ten minutes or
more, telling of the advantages the place
would enjoy, and said the Company meant
business and proposed to use every means
that energy and money would accomplish
to make Calhoun Falls prosperous town.
Gen. w. w. Humphreys, the Vice. Presi.
dent of the Company, was also introduced
and made q short speech, telling Of the
plans and prospects Of The place.
The sale then commenced and continued
Cor more than two hours. About forty
lots were bid off, the prices ranging from
$1OO to 1920, and aggregating about $500.
a number of lots were also sold at private
sale. One or two of tho business sites sold
as high as 50 front foot. The purchasers
were from various sections of the State and
Georgia, one being from Pennsylvania and
another from Indiana. The result of the
sale was very gratifying to the Company.

Delays are Dangerous

The benefits accruing to poor mon from
carrying life insurance have recently had
at least two striking e1emplifcations In
this county in the deaths Of Meesrs. De-
Witt G, Holcomb and s.. B. Brownlee.
Each Of these two had only paid an annual
premium and settlements we're promptly
made as soon as the necessary papers were
made out. Brownlee and Holcomb were
both insured in the Mutual Benefit, OF
Newark, N. T.. which is represented in the
Fork by G.. N. g. Boleman, and In this
oity by G. W. Miller. This Is one OF the
strongest and most reliable companies, be-.
ing in its 46th year of existence and hav-
ing so millions of assets. It deserves
special mention for It's prompt settlements,
having adjusted Mr.. Holcomb's claim
within ten days from the time proof was
made.
HDelays are Dangerous."-Every one
should promptly attend to this important
matter and thereby protect their wives and
children, In case of death, from the dread.
full inconvenience of poverty. Look out
for the Agents of the Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Company, and take policy
without delay. G. W. MILLER,
