Notwithstanding the great misfort
une that has befallen S. l. Till, ne Is
up and going again: he is now doing
business in the small place next door
10 S. 4. Righr'S He has some good
things that he offers in this week
issue under the heading. Only a
Word" He has been to New YORK
and Baltimore and how he buys goods
so cheap is puzzle to his competitors,
but he knows the markets and When ne
leaves Manning for New York and BAL
timore it is all business and no pleasure.
He is in a small place and has his little
store iarnmed from floor to ceiling, and
everything he offers is at least 20 per
cent cheaper than any oi his competlt-
ors. If you want TO see busy store
for spring. then go to TillS. next door

The time for selecting new town
council is drawing near, and every
voter should see to it that he procures
his registration certificate, because,
without such q certificate they cannot
vote. As we have remarked before 1t Is
highly important that an interest should
be taken in the selection Of our town
officials. as under the law the council
will have increased powers and it be-
hOoveS the taxpayers TO see to 1t tnat
men of good Judgment are selected. we
have no other interest in the town
election than to get the best material
to conduct the affairs of the town, and
this should be the feeling OF every
voter. Under the general law taxes
can be raised as high as ten mills and
the income this would bring, together
with the other sources of revenue, 1t
leaves room for extravaganza, II not
carefully managed. There should be
q citizens meeting at an early date to
adopt platform and nominate ticket,
and every voter can have voice IN the
selection if he will take the requisite
interest in the towns welfare.

Last SATURDAY evening the store OF
". f. .Jepkinson was aglow with sun
light brilliancy. Ever on the lookout
to attract attention to his well equipped
establishment. he was not baftled by
the cost, and he made contract with
the agent. and had installed into his
store the famous kitson light, which
for nlellownes, and brilliancy is far
superior to the electric light. The
lights in the vicinity of Jenkinson,s had
a lull red appearance, and as one fei-
low expressed it when his attention
was called to the splendor of Jenkin-
sons light said ives, it is fine light,
but don't it play hell with the others?:"
Whether Jenkinson in this exhibition
of enterprise has gone premeditately to
90 with the other merchants what the
fellows say his lights are doing, we do
not know. but we do know that any
merchant who shows so much pride II
his business as to provide the most
searching light on his goods is bound to
impress the trading public, and il he
does not exactly play the game his
lights are said to have played, he will
most, unless they get hump on them
selves also. People like to see i'm
provements and whenever they are
made their attention is drawn.

On the evening of March 7tn, which
is next Friday, there will be an enter
tainment at the Pinewood Academy for
the benefit of purchasing patent desks
for the school. State Superintendent of
Education J. J. McMahan has accepted
an invitation to deliver an address on
the occasion, and the good people of
the community will provide such an
evenings entertainment as will give
great pleasure to all who attend. The
people of the Pinewood section are
taking a lively interest in the cause of
education, and We hope the attendance
on next Friday evening will be in keep
ing with the zeal exhibited by the pro
mOterS of the entertainment. The edi-
tor of The TINES has received most
cordial invitations to be present which
he highly appreciates and will attend
if he is in the county at the time.
Everybody that can, ought to 60 and
hear the address of Hon. J. J. McMa-
han, because he will speak on a subject
that is interesting to every good citi-
zen, and especially to those people who
see the necessity of more progressive
ness in our schools. The entertain
ment at Pinewood is for a worthy cause
and deserves to be will patronized.
