LEAVING THE WORST
TILL THE LAST

In one paving district in the city
from three to five feet of excavation
Is necessary. Just to see what the
character of the excavation was a
large pit was dug some months ago,
and then left, while the work is be-
ing pushed in other parts of the city
This district is now reported as the
last one to receive the attention of
the contractor. Evidently there is
a determined effort to leave the most
dangerous and unsightly districts till
the last, and then the winter SHOWS
may lay 1t over for another year. A
short time ago a lady nearly fell into
the pit while finding her way home
after dark. A few days ago a man
just escaped it while riding a horse
that became frightened at an auto.
mobile. Before this condition is recti-
fed 1t is not unlikely that the city
VIII fall heir to a law suit which will
further increase the citys overdraft.

THE FIRST
CROP.

This movement looking to the open.
ing OF market for Utah fruit is a
good one and furthermore it is time.
ly. With crop already aggregating
one million dollars in value, and
with a promise of increasing two or
three fold within the next three years
when the trees now set out are
brought to full maturity, It is the
part OF wisdom to be looking abroad
for the best field in which to market
1t.
The fruit crop means much to Utah.
" is indeed one of the states most
valued resources. Interest In Il has
been somewhat slow in the past and
yet year by year the crop has grown.
Now II has attained to such impor.
lance that anything which contrib.
utes to its success is of direct bene.
fit to the entire state.
In Colorado one of the leading news
papers of Denver has taken it upon
itself to furnish the labor for har.
vesting the fruit crop there this
year. An employment office has been
opened in connection with the paper
and all help that may be available
when the crop is ready for harvest is
being duly registered. Clerks, bust.
ness men, professional men on vaca.
tons and common laborers are among
those already booked for the harvest.
The fruit crop means much to Colo.
RADIO and Colorado intends caring for
it.
We are pleased with this movement
headed by local men. 1t is sure to
grow into splendid organ cation for
good, and one that will be of lasting
benefit to every interest of Utah.
Get behind it. Push it along and get
into the habit of lending your sup.
port to every good movement tending
toward the general uplift of Utah,
the Queen of the West!

Happenings Of a Week In and About the
Seven-HiIIed City-PersonaIs.
Lowndesville, Oct. Goth, 1912

Lowndesville, Oct. Goth, 1912.
Last Friday night, at st. Johns church,
two miles out, in order to raise some funds
for some church purpose, there was held a
fish fry" This attracted quite q crowd
Of darkies. Knowing Of this gathering,
Mr.. Jesse Cam and a friend went there.
The first, who is acting rural policeman,
perhaps suspected or had some grounds
for supposing that he might do some work
for the good OF the county. Seeing a light
in the old field near by they went to it, and
found a good old game OF cards in full
sway. A pretty good crowd of interested
onlookers standing around. When the
above men were seen coming the lights
were quickly kicked out, and everybody
scattered. Enough was seen and informa-
ton picked up, to start a rounding up the
next day, and eight or ten Of the suspects
brought before Magistrate j. G. Huckabee
for trial. Six Of the main ones pleaded
guilty to the charge, and succeeded in get
ting some white man to pay the dollars

tiger" was close by. This trial called out
the largest crowd Of whites and blacks
that ever gathered in a Magistrates court
in this place.
Ringling's show at Anderson Tuesday
had about one hundred to represent this
place and section, mostly black. Some
could not wait till show day, but went the
day before. Perhaps some of those who
were caught gambling and those who it is
alleged were selling whiskey, were trying
to raise the wherewith to pay their way to
the show.
Mr.. Henry Tennent, Jr. went to Augusta
Monday on business.
Mr.. R. r. Jones, who gave up his posi-
ton with Messrs. Cooley & Speer some
time ago, and took a trip out west, came
back Sunday evening; will remain here
a while, and will go into business of his
own at Fountain Inn, his old home, the 1st
Of January next.
Miss Annie Lou Power, of Augusta, who
has been up the country for some time,
came down from Anderson with her little
niece, Miss Mabel Power, Tuesday evening
and were with us till Thursday.
After a week or ten days with thick low
ering, threatening clouds, through which
the sun was rarely seen by day or the
moon by night, Thursday was a bright,
but cold day. Considerable frost was in
evidence. But a short while ago loungers
hunted the shade to while away their leis-
ure hours; now they seek the sunshine to
increase their comfort.
THE cosmopolitan four" of the Alkahest
system, Atlanta, Ga, gave an entertain
ment to a crowded house in the High
school building Wednesday night. 1t was
spoken of very highly by Judges.
The Abbeville Fair has claimed the pres

put-Of and more will be.
Men don't know that it costs more mon

with his uncle, the Rev. Sid H. Browne,

As each one of the vast multitude OF
men, women, children and horses who was
present at the Abbeville County Fair would
testify to the excellence OF everything
present, it is needless for this scribe TO
tell anything Of the Fair itself. The
great crowd, especially on Thursday, re-
minded US Of the good old days at Due
West, when the roads were filled with We
hicles carrying great numbers Of people
to the Due West Commencement, but the
numbers on Friday looked more like the
numbers that now attend Commencement
in the classic city.
The pleasure Of meeting old friends was
one OF tho charms Of the occasion, while
the hearing of what they and others had
to say added interest.
Two mighty good ladies were heard to
remark on the comparative merit OF this
Fair and q similar Fair in ----C County,
which was far superior to the Abbeville
Fair. Her associate then asked for a "pro-
grum" of this Fair, and asked her II she
was at the aforementioned superior Fair.
She replied {: No; I didn't get there. l
started there and passed the town OF
- when, because Of the heavy rain,
I turned back and did not see 1t.
The conversation then turned on preachers.
One OF the ladies expressed her preference
for preachers-not pastors. The second
lady did not favor pastors visits, and gave
one reason at least to sustain her position.
She was busy one day cooking something,
the name Of which Is now forgotten, when
somebody knocked at the door. Leaving
her hot stove and the cooking eatables
st%illstheron, she answered the call. The
pastor was at the door. He was asked in,
and he was as agreeable as a man could
be and she forgot the hot stove. After a
while he proposed a prayer, to which con-
sent was readily given. She had not got
ten comfortably on her knees until the odor
of burning eatables filled the air. She
was then reminded Of her cooking. AS
time vent on, the air became sitting. She
suffered fortunes at the thought OF the
loss Of wasted food. Notwithstanding the
air was thick and sitting, it seemed that
the preacher was innocent; it seemed that
the prayer would last forever. That hot
stove and the destroyed eatables caused
her to prefer a preacher-not a pastor.
Speaking Of prayer is a reminder that this
is about the usual time OF the year for
missionaries to become interested in our
prayers.
When the ticket collector started on his
round at the auxiliary to the grand stand,
he started his business by ordering some
boys who were sitting or the ground to
move on or show their tickets.
One lady on an elevated seat asked the
collector Of tickets what if the flying ma
chine does not fly. "You will be out OF ten
cents, madam; that is ALL"

heard no complaint at the GOODNESS OF the

not properly express the heartfelt greet

OF the best people on earth with us on this
pleasant occasion. There were thousands
here and all were given the glad hand from
warm hearts.

Extra copies Of The Press and Banner
were distributed containing Mr.. Kerr's
advertisement, the biggest and greatest
that was ever printed in Abbeville. Owing
to the size OF the advertisement-eight
pages-it made a good sun-shade for some
Of the ladies who unfolded it over their
hats.

We formed q most pleasant acquaintance
OF two mighty good ladies from Mount
Carmel. They expressed themselves most
pleasantly Of MI. Wilson's writing in The
Press and Banner, and spoke of his recent
letter to the Associate Reformed Presby-
terrain. Kind words "are more than cor
onets," and to hear words of approval are
an old mans richest treasure. The ladies
from Mt. Carmel, while speaking most
pleasantly in reference to his writings, we
think they did not quite agree with Mr..
Wilson's cranky notions about missions.
He thought it was a pity for preachers to
fool as good and as confiding Christians
INTO throwing away their money on what
he regards as the greatest fraud that af-
ficts the American people today-foreign
missions.
