NEW HOPE

New Hope, Nov. 17.-After an alb
Scnce of few editions of our county
paper. will give few dots from this
vicinity.
1t was our pleasure to meet the
venerable Mr.. and Mrs. "VoX" while
on their visit to the synod in Union
some time ago. 1t was a pleasure in
deed, to talk while with this grand
old man. The influence of his conver
Sation always makes me feel that /
am better creature than I really
think myself. l have always looked
upon him as a good man and a great
man, even from boyhood. Have al
ways admired his writings, and dis
appointed if our Union Times has not
letter from him each week. 1t is
wonderful that he is endowed with so
much energy. Better than all, he and
his wife are saturated with the love
of God
Today is cold enough to kill hogs;
some have already been killed. | hear
the cry of hard times, it is hard with
some, but l never hear the ones who
are most in need utter a word of COM
plant. We have some in our county
and even around us whom / know to
need help as we'll as those who are
having millions sent them by the ship
load. Many of our own home people
will suffer this winter for food and
clothing. Some people tell us not to
cry hard times. 1t it no use, they are
here and everybody is feeling it. The
regional banks are now open-we
wait to see the improvement in bust
ness. There is one man in Union
county who says what cotton shall
bring here. DO you wonder at times
being so hard. This same man also
said he thought 7 cents fair price
for cotton. Is that the kind of man
the farmers need to help them along;
a man who talks thus does not know
bit more than child what it takes
to produce a stalk of cotton. There
are people right around us who would
like to see the farmers with their
noses to the grindstone. We know
who they are and the time is coming
when their beds will be of thorns-
hard to lie on. Oppression of others
Will be the cause. | am glad that it is
as well with me as it is. There has
been some grain sowed, but not much
wheat. The farmers are not able to
buy TO seed. Some set of men are re-
sponslble for the present conditions.
We feel for those who live in town
and are not able to buy wood and coal.

Bully, Let Prices Soar.

1t was doubtless cheerful IDIOT
who wrote this, but it has some good
sense and meaning to it: What are
you croaking about the high cost OF
living for, you ninny? Hadn't you
noticed that the higher it is the more
the farmers prospcred? True, the
middle man gets away with q lot of
it, but who ever saw farmers so pros
porous as for the recent past? There
is where you will find the ncst-egg of
good times. If meat goes too high
for you, 90 to hunting ground hogs.
1t would be a Gods blessing if a
whole lot Of things humanity stuffS
itself would get so costly the people
couldn't afford to eat them. Hot corn
bread and butter milk is good enough
for a king, with little garden grass
now and then. You don't have to eat
all this canned stuff and high falurin'
grub with French names, and if these
high priced times sends you back to
the log cabin menu of the fathers, il
will be that much better for your di
geStlon. Let prices soar. The thing
FOR you to do is to &c to raising some
thing to sell and stand in with the
soaring crowd. Any price is too high
for the man with no money to buy
with. Back to the farm you paupcr,
and get rich. Old Red Neck is count
ing his prpofits these days and don't
care ding how high things go, ani
he is looking forward to the day when
the fool Europeans quit butchering
each other and begin to buy his stuff
when he expects to have to handle his
money with a coal shovel In the
meantime, let everybody pay his sub
scription and look pleasant.-Ex-

SOUTH CANON HI6H
LOSES ONE OF HER MOST
POPULAR TEACHERS

For many years Miss Anna Gar
wood has been identified with .ne
English department in the South Can
on High School. from which position
she has resigned to enter upon her
nov duties as county superintendent 1t
Of schools.
During these years. perhaps. no
teacher has ever occupied greater
field of usefulness than Miss Garwood
Her work has brought her in touch
with over a hundred students each
year, and the ideal that she has al
ways kept before them. that they
were created, for usefulness. and
nobiy should they fulfill the design
of their creation. has been an inspira-
tion TO many OF her boys and girls
that IF they would elevate others.
they must climb the heights themselv-
es."
As token of the love and esteem
in which Miss Garwood is held, the
students and faculty presented her
with a beautiful cedar chest Thurs
day at the close of the school session.
Ralph Thompson. president of the
Senior class, made the presentation
speech, ami voiced the sentiments of
the school when he said, the value
Of the gift did not measure their
love for her. nor would her influence
terminate with her resignation. but
as sweet incense would continue to
permiate their lives.
Harold Sprinkle president Of tie
Junior class. then followed. who sa'a
IN part tina, the field Of English un-
der the management OF Miss Gar
wood. had been the means OF open.
ing mp to them. avenues Of usefulness
hitherto undreamed OF. and the les
soma they had learned. would con.
tsnue with them through life.
Earl Fulkerson then responded .,r
the sophomores. who said that al
though Miss Garwood was to leave
them to fill another position. yet
voalA abe continue to be their teach
er. for the beautiful things Of life
are never lest. and that the sopho-
mores were with her wherever her
lot in future pears might be cast.
Harry Lewis. president of the
Freshman class. followed next. who
as the representative Of his class.
thanked Miss Garwood for the charity
she had shown In an her class work.
That while not blind to their faults.
she had never judged the growing
tree By one unseemingly branch" but
had culled from the most common
place that which was beautiful The
good wishes of the high school go
with her into her larger fields of use
