A Pleasant Visitation.

Saturday afternoon our grlmy
and prosaic workshop was trans
formed for the nonce into an en-
chanted scene of grace and beauty
and Iovcliness. The charm that
wrought this wondrous change was
not the fairy wand of enchantment,
but the presence of a bevy Of bright,
pretty and attractive young lady
school-teachers, before whose vista
ton, the cares that infest US at even
ing were dispelled as the mists of ear
ly morn vanish at the touch of rosy
fingered dawn. The sight of these
fresh and enthusiastic young school
ma ans" caused a feeling of poig
nant regret for our vanished youth
and a vain longing, Turn back
ward" O Time, in thy flight and
make me a school-boy again just t.
quaff the Pierian waters from the
fount of knowledge the chalice prof
cred by hands so fair.

err or was made in the figures show
ling the condition of the Bank OF
Kingstree. Our report gave the
amount of surplus as SIS, 900, when
the surplus and undivided profits

posits given as s17S,954.S6 should
have been Sl75,27l. We make
this correction cheerfully and will
ingly, at the same time apologizing
to the Bank of Kingstree for the
injustice done it by giving it
no credit for the entire net earnings

Gentlemen
take this method of speaking to
you. / want to urge upon you to
get busy and burn your plant beds,
and plant all the tobacco you can
possibly take care Of. / want you
to get the benefit of the short crop
that will be planted. There will be
at best only so per cent of last
years crop planted over this side of
the Pee Dee, where last year was a
short crop. So, this year, you see
will be just about half of last.
wonld not ask you to increase If
did not know what | am talking
about.
You will see prices this year high
er than you have ever seen Soutf
Carolina tobaccos. SO want yor
all, especially those that sell il
Kingstree, to get the benefit of the
high prices. l am not advising yo'
fronxa personal motive, but to-
your own benefit.
Twill be in position this year t.
handle and buy more tobacco than
