ABOUT PERSONALS.
The Trials and Tribulations of the
Reporter Who Gets up the Per-
SOnalS.

II would surprise you to know now
sensitive some people are in the mat
Ter of personal mention, some really
yaod persons whom one would scarce
" suspect, leaving such for common
3n and women 1t isn't surprising
u len just an ordinary individual com
pains OF being left out, but when one
higher up" gets put out about it, it
Is somewhat staggering.
This thing of getting items for the
:urely personal column is a tedious
i2b Everybody knows that there are
e2tain people who crave being in the
meiight. They seem to have a mania
or seeing their names in print. If
hey went to Prosperity twice week
hey would want it mentioned every
line. This is annoying.
Then there are others who really
don't care to see their names in the pa
per, at least so often, and we don't
blame them, rather respecting their
wishes. But between those who want
them in on all occasions and those
VINO are sensitive about it when left
ou1,-aIways accidentally and never
GlentionaIly,-Lhe reporter has hard
lime.
Scme people seem TO think that the
.esorjer has nothing else to 90 but
.,e:ta g,orsonal items AS a matter of
.c5, .aIS is oujy q lite side line. If
he made that ais business he could fill
i page every issue.
4 newspaper man is always glad
vaan he IS told any little matter of
interest. Some people act foolishly
about this. 1t is the extract of alb
surdity to suppose that the reporter
knows of the coming and going every
day of the innumerable travellers to
and from Newberry. In his pursuit of
weightier matters he catches these lit
tie ones ION the fly so to speak. Some
phone, some see him, sometimes he
hears through third parties. Some do
neither one nor the other.
Because names are in the papers, it
is no sign that the uarties themselves
send them in. If they fail to appear,
t is either because the reporter forgot
or didn't know. 1t doesn't amount to
much anyway, but:
If anybody thinks it is easy to get
up all these personal and various items
and the important locals, besides read
.ng he papers, keeping the mailing

cart contai1aI and what should be
done with Il. There mad been clean
ing up day or week in the town just
like the one that the ladies ordered for
Newberry, and this picture was meant
to describe, and did describe, some 9TH
er kind Of garbage that should be haul
ed OF after the streets had been clean
ed. and it Impressed me very forcibly,
because fs was somewhat along the
line suggested some time ago, of
the trash that should be hauled off
along with the trash Of the streets and
alleys, and am sorry that can't give
the cart and the skeletons of the gar
bage described. I will give you the
kind Of garbage that was being sug-
gested to be dumped into the cart:
HThe man who says we can't do i"
WRs Esys real estate is out OF all
reason" "The man who says every
thing is going to the bow-wows-" "The
man who kicks" "The man who nev-
at has a good word for his town" )"
srFhe nan who criticizes his home
town" '"The man who says he can
buy cheaper than in his town." "The
man who finds fault with all improve
NETS" Hlhe man who thinks his home
man Is not good enough for any posi-
ton which he may have to give, but
goes cut after stranger" The sug-
EssEIoh is that all these be dumped
into the garbage cat and hauled off
to the pit and sent the way of all garb-
age. If you don't say good word for
your town, where do you expect to
hear the good word, and whom do you
expect to speak it. If you haven't
good word for the men and women
who constitute the citizenship of your
town, how do you expect your town to
grow and prosper, and if your town
does not grow and prosper how do you
szpeet to grow and prosper. Think on
these things and then act.
7 wish 1 could be with the old boys
at Aiken this week. I know they are
enjoying themselves. The ranks are
being thinned and soon there won't be
any more gatherings of this noble band
here. Let US all hope there will be
grand reunion on that shore where
parting in unknown. The further we
get from those scenes of war and
suffering the more vividly they come
to The minds eye and the more we
can enjoy hearing them recounted. l
can see now the smoke from the burn
ing homes the result of Sherman's
march to the sea and hear the roar
of cannon. The old vets at Aiken
this week will tell many camp story
and recount many a hard and dan
yarous adventure of the days OF the
sixties. love to be with them and
never tire of the stories they relate.

case. They failed to find any Cana
dian grain at either place and it is
very evident that they were misin-
formed and that the information was
given by someone who was holding
agrudge against someo our Canadian
friends. The information went SO as
t o state that there had been some
thing like $4,000 bushels of flax re-
ceived at this place and in Harlem.
That is large amount of grain. and
IT the party trying to start the trouble
had given the thought amy considera-

where he had fixed it too high. $4,000
bushels is more flax than any one
