mind to buy good mill and use it in
the careful preparation of all seeds
which will be planted henceforth or

weed and the spindling stalk. Set the
sleeves TO leave only the best grains and

Presiding Elder Holroyd Praised

A card from Rev R L Holroyd
states that we may depend upon the
Kingstree districts paying out on
the Sunday-school assessment by No
vember first His district for some
time has lacked only three charges
of being out, and we doubt if the to-
tai to come from these will amount
to over fifteen dollars. When it is
remembered that his district was
first to pay out on missions, that tits
striving to pay every claim in full,
that it has more than doubled its
past record on Children's day, we
are bound to call Brother Holroyd a
great presiding elder. And be it said
to his credit that he is attending to
spiritual matters with the same ear
nestness and wisdom with which he
attends to the business matters OF
his district. - Southern Christian
Advocate.

that he was attacked by two men at
the Wabash tracks and Holman street
and robbed of SIS in currency and some
wearing apparel.
According 10 the police blotter Adj

he stated that he got off South Shore
interurban car. and while on his way to
the Lion store to purchase some cloth
ing. he was attacked by two men at
the Wabash tracks, and after pulling
behind two box cars, robbed him of SIS
and some clothing. His second story
ran to the effect that he got off the
South Shore train and was on his way
to Holtz greenhouse to purchase some
flowers. At the Wabash tracks two
men grabbed him and pulled him to
Cameron street where the robbery oc-
Cured Although the police do not
take much stock in his story, the case
is being investigated.
