TO ILLUSTRATE NEWBERRY.
The Herald and News Has Arranged
For Illustrated Write-up of Town
By Experts.

TIC recent historical edition Of The
Herald and y VS. having attracted
such wide attention throughout South
Carolina and the adjoining States it
has been decided to publish in the
near future an illustrated trade and
industrial edition With this object in
view the services of a force Of expert
writer's have been engaged, and, as
announced elsewhere, will call upon
our business and professional men
within the next few days to secure
data upon which to base The Write-ups
of the best town in South Carolina.
Messrs. F. ]. Arlington and Leo. A.
Meyers and Miss Azile Nix have been
secured to do this work. All Of them
are specialists in their line, and have
been engaged in this work for several
years. They have written up several
towns in South Carolina under the
auspices of the business organizations
of those towns, and have come to New
berry with the highest endorsemets.
Mr.. Arlington will tell the story of the
banks and manufacturing enterprises
while Mr.. Meyers will show the ad-
vances made in mercantile lines. Miss
Nix will write especially along the
lines of ladies goods, including the dry
goods and millinery establishments OF
the city.
It is hoped to make the forthcoming
issue the largest and most comprehen-
sive newspaper ever issued in the State
in a town of Newberry's size. Practl-
cally a history of every business in
Newberry will be written. These stor-
les when grouped together will form
a complete business history OF the
town.
