Unique Plan to
Build New Church

The pastor at Gross Roads
proposed rather a novel plan to
build a new church house at
that place. The plan is about
as follows:
For each boy and girl in the
community under 20 years old,
next spring to get as many cot
ton seed as they can hold in
their hands, plant and cultivate
them and give the proceeds to
the building Of the house. All
over 20 years old and under 100,
set apart just as much land as
they are willing to plant and
cultivate for the same. The
women to save and sell all the
eggs laid on Sunday and con.
tribute to the same fund. IF
the people will adopt the plan
the house will be built and no
one will be any poorer.

Easley Dots.

The carnival was here last
week, but that is hardly any
news, as almost everybody was
here to see it. Well, now it is
gone and with it many nickles
that ought to have been spent
for meat and bread, it was moth
ing more than a licensed gam
bling affair. What is the diff
ference between gambling on
the street in open daylight, and
negroes throwing craps at night?
What ought to be the difference
in the punishment2 Our honest
Judgment is that the whole
thing is demoralizing, and
should never be allowed in a
town.
1t really locks as if Easley
will soon be a real city. One
nice brick store house, two sto-
ries, about finished, and four
other two-story brick buildings
going up, gives the town a real
live appearance.

that the Conference will return

with the internal revenue de-

Mr.. Aiken has been in that ser

much of his time has been spent
