once and If possible. next weeks pa
per will be set on 1t. But 1t will
probably be another week before we
will present to our leaders the paper
with all its changes we intend to
issue.
There is one thing we want to ask
of the citizens of Greenville and that
is, the news of their MONIES and
neighbors. If you have visitors. are
going away, or if you give an enter
tainment. phone it 10 No. 1922 rings
and the favor will he more than APP

The Times will greatly appreciate
It if the pastors of the different de-
nominations will send us their sun
day announcements each week and
all matters CT interest cuhcerni g
their churches or congregations. In
the new makeup of the paper space
will be given TO the doings OF frater-
nal orders aud social clubs. Out-ot-
town CORES. oa Tents from every To-
caltv within radius of fifty miles
are irv,ted to nd in the local hap
penings of their towns and they will
be published Contributions dealing
with timely topics of the day, OR
concerning the city by writers in the
city orsscounty are invited.
In conclusion we want all TO feel
that The Times is their K paper,
and it wants all the neNs II get to
publish. We do not want Z" ri ~
anyone and will not if en,~ ,ar

Watch for the paper.
