Church Of the Redeemer.
(Rev. Edw. FulenWider, Pastor)

(Rev. Edw. FulenWider, Pastor).
The following is the program of
divine services at the Lutheran
Church of the Redeemer next Sunday:
IL a. m.-There will be the regular
morning service. The pastor will
preach on the subject: Some Popular
Misconceptions of Sin" Sin is one
of those great subjects that has been
before the world since the tragedy in
Eden. It is a problem that no human
mind can solve, hence, many of the
popular ideas of sin are misconcep-
tons. The Bible is our only true
source of informal ton as to the pun
ishment, growth, influence, cure, etc.,
of sin.
7.3O p. m.-There will be short
song service. The subject of the ser
mon will be: "Gossiping With the
Devil" There are two evils that have
had, and are still having much to do
with the tragedy and sin Of the world,
Gossip" and Drink" Some one has
said: women gossip and men go
SIP" However that may be, it is true
that parleying with the devil was at
the foundation of mans fall, and is
still a source of much evil.
4 .. m.-The Sunday school meets.
There are classes and teachers for
all ages: There will be good music
at all the services.
A cordial invitation is extended the
public.

The Southern Power co. Franchise.

Editor The Herald and News: L
have been waiting and hoping for
someone that is more capable, to say
something as to tide councils action
on the Southern Power company in
not allowing them to enter the town
of Newberry, but so far no one has
raised voice. I want to say that I
do not want to criticize, and what l
say is for the good of the town as /
see it. It seems to me that the action
of the council was a strange one.
Some of US have ceen waiting and
longing for this power tu come to-
Newberry, believing that nothing Will
do Newberry as much good as this
power and when it comes knocking
at our door, We say, No, you can not
come in. Why? know that the
mills want it, and II the council can
give the mills such things that they
want, at no cost to the council, it
seems. to me that it ought to push it
along. Do the mills not help New
berry? Ought we not work for the
good of one another?
I am told that this company prom
ises to save one-third of the coal bills
to the mills. This viii be a great say
ing to the mills. l am told by one OF
the aldermen that this company prom
ises to save the council $4,000 per
year, by selling them power cheaper
than they can make it. Now, is this
not worth picking up? DO you believe
the Southern Power company can DO
this? Yes, you know that they can
make current by water cheaper than
We can by steam, and they can afford
to sell this power to the NeWberry
plant at one price and let the plant
sell to it's consumers at another, and
in this way this plant can be run
cheaper. 1t seems to me that the
Southern Power company not wanting
to sell less than 10O Horsepower is 70
the advantage to this power, as then
the two companies will not come in
contact with each other, as the home
plant will not sell as much as 100
horse power to any one person, as
they cannot furnish this much power.

Skovgaard Concert Party

The skovgaard Concert party Will
appear in Holland hall on Thursoay
evening, March 16. This party is CON-
posed Of Alex skoygaard, the eminent
Danish vioinist, accompanied by Miss
May Warner, noted soprano anu
Miss Alice McClung, a pianist of rare
ability. Newberry should certainly
congratulate herself upon securing
this excellent company.
Alex skovgaard is the greatest VOL
mist touring America today. lie IS a
large and handsome man, "who draws
from his violin a big round tone, al
ways pure and true, and who sue
ceeds in pleasing mixed audience
better than most ihigh-grade violin
players.'

there comes a time when the mills
think the company IS charging too
much for their current, there is moth
ing hindering them from going back
to steam; they will still have their
steam plants.
Another strange thing is that the
council will let one company come in
to Newberry with a franchise, (that
there is nothing to, and never has
been) and when their franchise runs
out, extend for another three years
more, and not get cent for this fran
chise, nor does it receive any benefit
from it, and then when another COM
pany comes with the juice, and we
want it the council says you cannot
get it. Where was lnis company go
ing to get it's power? I would like to
know.
hope the council will reconsider
this question, and give US this power,
and if not 1 will be glad to have some
one to give their reasons why NeWber-
ry ought not to have this power. All
for Newberry; that is wat We should
work for. Othert towns are going
ahead. Let us not lag behind, for no
other reasan than there is a negro
