"TOWN KILLERS"

Under the above caption The
Greenwood Journal discusses this
pest with which every community is
more or less afflicted. Says The
Journal:
who are they? Well one thing
is very certain they are not boosters.
You never hear one Of them say any
thing favorable to the community In
which he lives. There Is always
something 1t never occurs to them
that the wrong may be with them
selves.
THE town killer never helps set
any enterprise on foot that might
help build up the business interests
of the community. He was never
known to make subscription for
anything along this line. When
others undertake 1t, he will begin to
talk about il and tell you that Il Is
no good. He can not see any use in
1t anyway. AS for giving to assist
in building or supporting church,
hospital, college or school that Is out
of the question so far as the town
killer is concerned AS for fair
that to him is one Of the most fool
ish stunts that was ever pulled Off.
He Will tell you that the state fair
is enough and too much. No use in
having one where he lives.
The town killer always boosts
the places where he does not live.
He will tell you for instance that
Abbeville is one OF the livest, best
towns in the state. If he lived there
he would tell you IT was the dead
est. No business season is ever a
good one. 1t is the dullest he ever
saw, bringing a better price at every
town in the state except the one in
which he lives. Everything is out
of joint in and around him. Last
fall when cotton was selling for ten
and twelve cents the town killer
talked as IL everything were going to
the wall He worked harder then
than he does now, and for the rea-
son that it was more difficult to get
people to listen to him. OF course
we have a few town killers in Green
wood, but they have never succeeded
in killing anything but themselves.
II is about all that they can do to get
about in this community. They are
very lame and weak, thanks to the
builders and boosters who have
made Greenwood and who are still
working at it,

To Get Names of Soldiers and
NVidnxyc


We, the undersigned, do hereby
appoint the following men in each
township, to get the names of the
Confederate soldiers and widows of
the late war, now living, and meet
at the court house with reports on
the first Monday in December, 1914:
w. Q. Caskey, Gills Creek town
ship.
w. A, Marshall, Pleasant Hill
township.
M. C. Gardner, Flat Creek town
ship.
William Estridge, Buford town
ship.
w. T.. Sistare, Cane Creek town
ship.
John Bell, Dry Creek township.
William Crenshaw, Waxhaw
township
ID. X. Hall, Indian Land town ship.
The object is to present the names
of those living to the next legisla-
ture. Be prompt, help the soldiers.
w. G.. A. PORTER,
Commander Camp Dixie. No. ITS.
The Lancaster news. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1905-current, 1914-11-03

1t is safe to say that notwith-
standing the effort Of the Legislature
to saddle the state with an addition
al bonded debt of S24,OOO,OOO. the
failure of Governor Blease to veto
the act, or to return it to the body
within three days, rendered the
measure imperative. So it seems
that the governor vas right when he
characterized the bond act as a
huge joke" We all know who the
jokers are, but now about the farm
ers of the state, upon whom the joke
has been perpetrated?
The Lancaster news. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1905-current, 1914-11-03
OPTIMISM.

We suggest the formation of an
Optimist Club in Lancaster, the car
dinal principle of which will be for
the members to be always cheerful
and look on the bright side of things
The following, taken from The At
lanta Georgian. is illustrative of the
idea we have in mind:
In the mail reaching The Geor-
gian's Office this morning there came
letter from Mr.. Solomon Schlom-
berg, of Jonesboro, Ca, who appar-
emily is most unhappy man.
Solomon refuses pointblank to
cause. says Solomon, What's the
use?'
"He writes:
"'I would like to know IL my
smiling face and optimistic talk
would stand off" my creditors, pay
my rents, clothe my family or pay
my grocery bin?'
mo. Solomon, We regret to re-
port that your smiling face aud ynur
optimistic talk would not of them
selves alone liquidate your just OBJ
legations to the butcher, the baker,
and the candlestick maker.
There is an important difference
between being an optimist and
mere cheerful idiot, Solomon.
considering the noble and il
lustrious name you bear, and all that
1t stands for in history both profane
and sacred, we should think that
might have occurred to you, Solo
mon.
while, however, your optimistic
talk and sweet smiling face would
not alone pay your debts, it would
help matters little, IL at all, for you
to sit down and cry in the face of
the bill collector-perhaps really In
need of their cash.
1T doesn't help any, Solomon, to
complain of hard times and gloom
generally-it never did help any
man in this world, and it never will.
Nothing but hard work, honest
dealing, frugal living and right
thinking will pave the way to sue
cess, Solomon. Look up, not down;
look forward, not backward; be Of
good cheer-and stick to your job
the best you know how, whether the
skies be dark or otherwise.
Henry Ward Beecher said, and
truly:
"'It is not work that kills man;
work is healthful; you can hardly
put more upon man than he can
bear. Worry Is the rust upon the
blade. 1t Is not the revolution that
destroys the machinery but the fric-
ton
Think that ever solomon-and
cheer up!
"Be game, though the heavens fall
which they are not going to do"

HISTORICAL SOUVENIRS.
Sent by Former Lancastrian From
Low Country.

Low Country.
A few days ago we received by
parcel post, from Mrs. Lillian Flynn
Griffin, daughter of Mr.. ]. Palmer
Flynn of the Dixie section of the
county, who now resides at Summer
Vile, S. c., parcel containing a
small package of Extra Blend Yellow
Dragon tea, grown and packed at
the Pinehurst Tea Gardens at Sum-
merville. and the other souvenirs
are mentioned in a note under sep
arate cover. Mrs. Griffin, in asking
for her bill for her subscription to
The News, says: 1T is like a letter
from home and wish it continued"
Her interesting letter to The News is
as follows:
To the Editor of The News:
1 am sending today by parcel post
number of historical souvenirs of
the lower part Of our grand old state
The package of tea is raised here at
Summerville, my present home, and
the bits OF oak sprigs / gathered
from "Marion's Oak" a few miles
from Charleston. This oak covers
one acre of ground. 1t is very an
cient. The huge body and limbs
are divided and lying in every direc-
ton. You will recall it is the tree
where Marion, our grand American,
met with the British officer, roasted
sweet potatoes and served them to
him (the British officer) on a piece
Of pine bark. The tree is a beauti-
full site to behold. Every limb is
streaming with the enclosed silvery
gray moss. Around this tree is very
historical. number OF deep lakes
are near and on their banks are lime
factories. Much lime is being made
here.
/ hope. Miss Editor, if you have
never visited this place, you will not
fail to do so the next time you are
| in our country. The railroad runs
through here. The nearest shopping
point is Ingleside. / remain,
Yours very sincerely,
| MRS. LILLIAN FLYNN GRIFFIN.
