pubIlC 10 much We Will UNION III "t''''A-
I: slice. We never like to crowd i'll so
much in the same issue of the SAME kind,
, but as our raSt letter has been delayed for
the past week or ten days, We hope to be
| excused
Our sick are all getting along nicely.
/ We are sorry that our editor has been
sick for the past week and not able to be
| at his post of duty While We missed his
interesting letters from Columbia we were
thank full that his condition was not so
severe as to keep his pen from going. We
| hope by this time that he IS fully recOv-
cred
The public has long since recognized
the fact that if you want the news you
must take The Herald and News
"IIurrah" for our free rural delivery!
We have just learned that in few more
DAYS it will 90 into a daily. The people
along this route have been greatly
| benefited bv the service of the free deliv-
cry which has give lis our mail three
times a week regularly for nearly three
years.
If we get a little more convenience
down here in the country We will feel al
most like we are living in town. Mr..
editor, the thought has just struck us we
must not be behind, we must run our
Herald and News into daily. With such
mailing facilities over the country and
the city Of Newberry growing so rapidly
there's no use of saying any longer that
the time has not come for daily. 1t is
right here now and the people demand it..
You are sleeping on your rights if you
put it off any longer.
| Last Monday morning as we drove in
town we were suddenly struck with sad
ness as the news reached us of the death
of Mr.. c. +. Boyd Mr.. Boyd was a
model man. away beyond the ordinary,
and to know him meant to love him He
came as near living a life up to duty,
both to God and man, as any one l ever
knew. Not only his family and relatives,
but the whole country has right to feel
proud of the life of c. +. Boyd. While
earth needs such men God shows us that
heaven also needs them While death is
sad under all circumstances, yet there is
great 10y and consolation in the death of
the righteous. May God give more such
Men as c. F. Boyd.
| Never mind the weather so the wind
don't blow. The wind did blow last Sum
day, but never the-less we were thankful
to he able to attend preaching at Colony.
| After we had arrived we found that our
pastor, Rev c. H. Armstrong, along with
| a great number of others, did not mind
the weather. The sermon was from the
first part Of Gods word, the beginning
of time. $50 God created man i'll his
own image, in the image of God created
he him. Male and female creat' d ne
them Genesis Ist chapter and 27th
verse. Rev Armstrong pointed out some
new thoughts upon this subject that was
very interesting Although he never fails
to give us something fresh and good for
our souls to feed upon. This was his
second anniversary sermon; and 1t is
great satisfaction for the writer to say
during those two years he has accom-
plished much good among the people OF
Colony church.
We commend the action of the COVER
ncr in pardonng the Riser boys. We
thought that the petition asking for their
pardon year ago should have been
granted, but the solicitor and governor
thought otherwise. SO they were left to
battle with the hardships of prison life
one more year. We hope that they will
stick to their promises that they made to
the governor and lead better lives and
make better men of themselves. And we,
too, hope the good people of the county
will take them by the hands, hold them
up, give them chance to redeem them
selves We are all prone to do evil. The
OILY mistake we see some one has made
is in giving out the information to the
| public duplicating the dead man. This
should have been done while the man
was living if it had to be done at all
Young men. let the dead rest; you will
| never reach the top of the ladder by
throwing off your bad deeds on some one
else
Well, it's about time to begin talking
about buying guano and raising cotton
and bothering Messrs. NJ. A. Carlisle,
| Tno. NJ. klnard and DR.. Mcintosh about
how much money they are going to let
us have. And it really seems that they
| don't care to be bothered very much
more with farm rs notes, and it would
be Go is blessing to great many OF MS
| farmers if they would shut down OIL so
| much mou-y lending But, Messrs. pres
| idents, there is one thing l want to in
treat upon you, please respect every
mans feelings It don't matter how
poor he may be, treat him with respect.
Speak kind and courteous, it dosen't cost
ANYTHING and it makes people feel so
good to be treated with respect Don't
:ee5 that YOU are some kind of a Lord, too
good to be bothered with poor folks and
