The attention Of the people Of
Newberry is directed to the report Of
the trustees Of the graded school on
the special matter Of enlarging our
school facilities which they we're d.
rected to make at the recent annu-
al meeting.
The citizens are called to meet on
Thursday to consider this report and
it is published in advance so that
every one may be familiar with it
before the meeting. 1t will be seen
that our present school property is
nearly paid for and in two years
more the entire bond issue will be
wiped out.
That we need to enlarge our school
facilities no intelligent citizen who
has studied the situation and who ap-
preciates the Importance to COM
munity Of the very best school facll-
tiles, Will for moment question.
The board suggests two plans. We
are inclined to the view taken by the
board that the plan Of establishing
high school is the one for us at this
time to adopt. It will cost less and
serve better purpose in our school
system at this time. 1t will not be
long before the other plan of anoth-
er building in different section Of
the city will also be a necessity.
But both plans are presented and
it is for the citizens to say what they
will do.

PAVE THE SIDEWALKS.
Newberry, S. c.

The action Of the city council in
taking steps toward having the side
walks Of Greenwood paved is most
commendable. ~.>.,
The value to the property owners
will be more than double the cost Of
putting down the paved sidewalks.
The convenience and comfort Of such
paved walks is too well known to
need proof. All property having such
walks will be greatly enhanced in
value. Other towns are doing SINH
lar work and the citizens are entering
into the work with enthusiasm. In
Greenwood the property owners, so
far as is known, are also enthusiastic
We are very fortunate that all Of
these things are so. The good work
must be kept up, the enthusiasm will
need constant fanning.-Greenwood

Constant tanning is no doubt nec-
essary but our trouble has been to
get the blaze started. If we could
once get the enthusiasm to assume
activity and get on it good red glow
we do not think it would take so
much tanning. The sidewalks along
most Of the business streets are paw
ed now and the work was we'll
done but it has never yet got started
in the other sections.
What we need is first to get some
street paving started. We understand
that since the proposition to pave

We take the liberty of printing the
following LETTER from Congressman
Aiken. It shows how closely he is
watching all the interests Of every
part of his district and that he is en-
deavoring at all times to give the peo-
pie better service.
The Herald and News hos from
time to time since the present sched-
ule was put on urged the establish
ment Of postal clerks on the midday
trains, Is and l9, between Columbia
and Greenville.
In fact the Greenville meeting, at
which these trains we're agreed upon,
promised to look after this matter
and urge the additional mail service.
Now it seems that it is up to the rail
road to furnish the car space. We
call Superintendent Simpsons at
tention to this fact. This is matter
that touches the districts represent
ed by Messrs. A. F. Lever and J. T..
Johnson as well as Mr.. Aiken.
We would suggest that this is a
proper subject to attract the atten-
tion Of the proper committee from
our chamber Of commerce, or the
president or secretary, and that it
should be taken up officially with the
railroad and urge the Importance Of
providing space. We now have the
best and most convenient schedules
we have ever had and postal clerks
on Nos. IS and 19 would give US e1-
ceptionally fine mail service.
The following is the letter from
Congressman Aiken:
Abbeville, S. c., Sept. IA, 1907.
Ny Dear COL:
Yesterday I read with interest
your article concerning mails on
trains is ond 19 on the Columbia and
Greenville road. AS soon as those
trains were put on I called at he
post office department and made an
earnest appeal Of the second assis-
tant postmaster general for postal
clerks on them and was promised
that if the trains were made perma-
nent that clerks would be put On if
possible. Several times since then l
have urged upon the management Of
the Southern road to keep the trains
on permanently with the promise
that if the travel justified it that
they would be kept on. I have also
kept the matter Of postal clerks fresh
in the minds Of the post Office depart
ment people and about three weeks
ago the second assistant wrote me
that the clerks would very probably
be put on now soon, or just as soon as
available car space could be secured,
but at this time it was impossible to
secure the space. I am satisfied that
if the Southern road will furnish the
space for postal clerks that they will
soon be running on the midday trains
on the C. & G., Nos. Is and l9. Only
yesterday I wrote an urgent letter to
the second assistant in behalf Of the
establishment Of this postal service
and will continue the fight until the
clerks are put on. If the trains are
kept on you will see the clerks on
them before great while.
With kindest regards,
Yours very truly,
