verely with rheumatism.
There will be communion services at
Cannon's Creek a r. l.. church next
Sunday.
The dry weather >and bugs have
played havoc with the Irish potatoes
and gardens.
The wheat crop is thought to be
pretty good. But oats have been cut
short considerably.
The lruit crop is as complete II fail
nre this year rs We have ever known il
to bc--scarc"ly any blackhcrrics.

drcn, OF Excelsior community, spent
last Sunday with their parents, Mr..
and Mrs. }. III. Kiblcr.
We'll, Kay, we read your parting
words with very much regret, and it
really causes feeling Of sorrow for
Chips to say good bye TO Kay. Old
friend, here's my Ra" in fellowship OF
love, hoping that while you go much
peace, love, happiness and prosperity
may follow you and your entire family
y u
been Kay and Chips in The Herald and
News for several years, pulling and
crOSS-tirinT 1T each other to such an cN-
tent that great many readers Of The
Herald and News didn't understand
our feelings as we always did ourselves,
they thought at different times that We
were about ready to fight, but We al
ways met each other with cheerful
greetings, and laughing over our tilts
and slapping each other with our pens.
Now, Kay, since you have been down
to the Capitol all wrapped up among
those cockal0rums please don't let your
mind become SO staggered us to forget
old Chips. We are still up here in our
little country home, but there is no
telling when the tide will rise and We
may drift back to the Capitol u,uin.
What a consolation it will be to old man
Chips to know that there is one, dear
old Kay, dowr there whom he can
'uttonholc to his own hearts content.
Yes, Kay, we will come to see you when
We get to the city just as sure as life
lasts. Now, Kay, in regard to our last
trip TO Columbia, we propose to do lust
like You did. Wen not tell oul. bu$i-
ness until We get our job.
We hope that The Herald and News
and Voice will both lay down their line
OF personalities and stop saying hard
things about each other. We believe
that we understand the position of
Editor Aull. Since one of the FREQ
rural delivery routes has fallen into the
hands @: Editor Capcrs it gives him the
right TO deliver The Herald and News
along with his other mail, aud Mr.. Aull
thought that Mr.. Capers would no,
deal fairly in sending out his paper in
due time, aud this gave Mr. Capcrs Il
good opportunity to down The Herald
toa small extent. IT. is very natural
that one editor doesn't want another to
"monkcy' with his paper. But, Mr..
Editor, we think that you Jumped on
Editor Capcrs little too soon You
should have given him trial, and if
he would have acted unfair l., the mat
ter, we would have been one among
the first to help feather him good.
but we want TO sec both OF these ed.
itors get on better terms. Tearing
down never means building up. While
you are tearing down for that other
fellow brace will give WAY i'm your
own building.
1t seems that all those successful con-
lcstants in The Herald and News prize.
were too modest TO accept after being
winner. Mr.. Edw. X lIipp has sold
the Rock Hill buggy: we suppose to
get it out Of his way. But what Ed.
Ripp can't sell is not worth selling.
It's blessed good thing that every
body doesn't see alike and 60 alike. If
Chips had brco Il contestant and won
that buggy he would have been riding
in it the next day after the pumpkin
seed were counted. After dealing the
cards and playing the game, we see no
need in not picking mp the money.
The dry spell was broken on last
Monday morning. a nice shower of
rain fell in this section which made the
land work better, but not enough has
yet fallen To bring up the balance Of
the crops. About onc-third of the
cotton seed yet remain in the ground,
but at the time Of this writing the
weather looks threatening, and we hone
it will not be many more days before
our old earth will be soaked from the
