The Commissioners of Water
Works and Sewerage on last Friday
accepted a bid from R M Marshall &
Bro of Charleston for the bonds is
sued by authority Of the recent, elec-
ton on the question of public utili-

The above-named firm offered par
for the S42, 900 bond issue, less $1,000
for expenses, such as printing and ad-
vertising and litigation testing the
validity of the bonds. This leaves
the net amount of the sale SAL. 900.
This was, all things considered, the
best bid offered the Commissioners
and, compared with the sale of mu-
nicipal bonds in other towns, the
transaction is very satisfactory in
deed.

KINGSTREE-THE GATEWAY
TO OPPORTUNITY.
THURSDAY. NOV. 80. 1911.

The speedy trial and conviction
of Beattie, the wife murderer. and
the frmness of Governor Mann
in refusing to interfere with the
verdict of the jury, have elected
many encomiums upon Virginia
Justice" and this is as it should
be. But suppose it had happen
ed in South Carolina under present
conditions-does anybody seriously
believe the murderer would ever
have expiated his crime? And
that lack of confidence in the power
of the law is responsible for the
wave of crime that sweeps over
our State today.

Most Of the farmers with whom
we have discussed the matter seem
inclined to look upon the offer OF the
New York bankers to finance the
cotton crop of the South with doubt
and even suspicion. One OF the most
successful and intelligent farmers IN
the county remarked that he could
not see how the price OF cotton
would ever go higher by storing 1t
and at the same time keeping it in
the channels of trade" 1t does
look like a Trojan horse when Wall
street bankers make overtureS
looking to the boosting OF the price
of cotton.

certainly appreciated this kindness
and are very grateful to the donor.

Robberies have become so frequent
here that they receive but little
notice. The store of Sauls-Baker Co
was entered and robbed Saturday
night week ago, but so little was
said about it that we failed to hear
of it until Wednesday night, too
late to report for the last issue of
The Record. How much and what
was taken can only be conjectured.
The robbers prepared to add murder
to robbery in case of detection. They
took two guns out of stock and load
ed them.

We Return Thanks.

Did we get that Thanksgiving
turkey? We show" did. Yester-
day morning, when we had about
despaired, our kind-hearted friend,
DIR Snider, sent US around fine
turkey and we became imbued with
g. spirit of fervent thanksgiving
which has not abated even after the
festive day has come and gone.
Scarcely had the turk" got used
to his new environment when there
came another-a big gobbler ana a
pumpkin, both of which were con-
tributed to our larder by Mr. Fred
Hodge, of Belsers K Roads. Fred"
is one of the most energetic and sue
cessful young farmers of his COM
rnunity and his turkeys are
sS fine as his crops.
To both these friends we extend our
heartfelt thanks, assuring them that
their thoughtful kindness will long be
remembered.
Had our friend, Rooster, of the
GreenviIle Piedmont, been within
reach we should have given him a
bid to the feast; then he could have
told his people where to find the
perfect type of the national bird. y

Yesterdays session of the Woman club was shorter than usual but the program was entertaining as long as if lasted. It was devoted to 'mis- celianeous'' subjects having been ar ranged as an occasion for disposing of various matters of unfinished busi- ness. The meeting was under the di- rection of the department of house hold economies of which Mrs. F. D. Lovett is chairman.
 A vocal solo, or rather group oi them, including a, b, and mum bers, was an attractive feature or the program The compositions were The Pansy, The Clover The Yellow Daisies. and The Blue Dell, all by Edward Mcdowell, and were sung by Mrs. w. H. Sargent. The Marble Dream" a very entertaining reading was also listened to with pleasure
 Mrs. $. K. Levy made a verbal re- port of a visit to a model dairy farm that was intended to open discus sion of the question of the milk sup ply of the city, but some who were expected to participate were not pres ent.
 Several who had been unable to at tend the previous meeting and report their self earned contributions to the building fund, recited their eXperi- ences for the edification of those who had previously given their testimony. and a proportionate amount of cash found it's way into the treasury.
 In this connection the club took up the matter of the offer of the New York store to donate ten per cent of it's cash sales tomorrow, to the club building fund. and a committee of ladies was appointed to serve as reception committee at the New York store on that date, April 20.
