Day before yesterday a perfectly
nice lady called us up and with tears
in her voice reproved Us for not men
t;oning tie fact that she had had a
friend visiting her last week. We
told her that she had not let us know
anything about it and that therefore,
we did not know t:at she had v1sl-
tor. Then she said well, you should
have known. thought you were
running newspaper" Wouldn't

think that an editor ought to be a
cross between Argus and Anne Eva
Fay. They seem to think that our
five senses are augmented by sixth

pens. even if We see, hear, feel, taste
or smell it not Dear lady, editors

I was in bad health. I got so l could
not sleep, and I could notstand it to have
my children come near me. / could not
even sew or do any heavy housework.
Twas simply tired all the time. I tried
so many medicines l could not recall
them ali, but nothing did me any good.
One day friend asked me to try Vinol
and said it was the best tonic she ever
saw. l did so, and soon got the first
good nights sleep I had had for long
time. Now I sleep we'll, my appetite is
good, my nervousness is all gone and I
am so strong and we'll ! do all my house

without feeling tired or nervous. Vinol
has made me we'll and happy woman. :"

We publish in this issue statement
from Mr.. Wade Stackhouse in regard
to the cotton corporation and also a
call from Mr.. C. E. Summer president
OF the Newberry Cotton association
for meeting of farmers, bankers and
business men and all others, to be held
at Newberry on the second o. jan
uary, 1915, for the purpose Of getting
together and discussing the cotton cor
poration. This is an important meet
ing and should be largely attended.
The Herald and News has taken this
position all along that the best that
could be done at this time is for all
interested to come together and reach
some agreement by which there could
be mutual help and mutual confidence
and in this way conditions for the new
year could be put in much better
shape.

keep going forward. There is no such
place as stand still in this world or
the next. There are lots of good peo-
pie just now who are almost ready to
give up. If they do they will go back

erytling is going to come out all right.

shape.

This will be tae last issue of The
Herald and News for the year 1914.
AS We stated in recent issue, the
subscription of number of our sub
scribers goes out with the year. A
good many expired in December and
some few in November. We have not
taken any O: these from our mailing
list on account of the cry Of hard
times and We hope that they will ali
pay something and thus help us to
carry the burden for them. Some
have paid and some have written that
they would in a few days and We are
coping 10 hear rom them all early n
January.
We do not care to lose any of our
subscribers and while We are convinc-
ed that the cash in advance is the bet
ter plan for the subscriber and the
editor and we expect to adhere to it,
still we are willing to make an ex-
eepton for a few months if We have
the assurance of the subscriber tha!
lie desires the paper and will pay for
it at that time.
We desire to practice what we
preach to bear and forbear and help
one another. 1t would be very small
matter for each subscriber whose time
has expired to pay so cents but in the
aggregate it would be considerable
sum to the editor We hope each one
will realize the Importance of this nd
send in even small amount on his
subscription.

Now as this is the last article tlat
| will write for the paper for tie year
1914 and may be the last that | shall
ever write | desire to thank the peo-
pie or the kind things they have SAID
about me without knowing who | am,
and to say to taose wl2o have sald
unkind things U@at | have forgotten
all they said and haye wiped it off the
slate. We all should be willing to
start the new year with clean slate
so far as animosities are concerned.
Of course, there will be some unpaid
obligations that will have to be carried
over, but so far as our relations and
associations. with one another are
concerned We can go into the new
year with a. clean slate and If We do
We will all feel tne better for so doing.
Here are some pretty good and simple
rules to observe. | never make new
year resolutions, but We could all
agree to observe certain simple rules
during tie new year Let me give you
one or two.
/. Never think unkindly of any one.
,. Never speak unkindly of any one,
and especially your neighbor.
8. If you can't speak. kindly don't
sreak at all.
4. Attend to your own business and
don't worry so much about how your
neighbor runs his business.
5. If you have no business then
don't worry about your nelghbors
but HE you off somewhere and get
something to do.
6. Be sure the beam is out of your
own eye before you try to take the
mote out of your neignbor's eye. YOU:
Influence will be greater
I. Observe the golden rule and play
tie glad game and you will have a
happy new year.
May every one every where have
pleasant Christmas and Happy New
Year is the wish Of tnis scribe do not
expect anything in the way Of pleasure
or happiness and in that l will not be
disappointed I will be as happy as l
can.

was walking down the street the
other day and looking around at the
many pretty things displayed by our
merchants and wishing that | could
have some money that l might make
some purchase-not for myself, nay,
no-because l really do not need
anything in particular but great
many things in general, but ] wanted
the money so that | might buy some
thing to make some one else happy,
especially some little innocent child
whom l know would enjoy and ap-
preciate the gift, or the reminder that
Christmas had come again. Well,
what l started out to say is that as
was looking around at the stores and
the beautiful decorations and the
many pretty things l read a sign over
one of the stores that had on sale.
The thing struck me forclbly Wnen
first saw it. l don't know who got 1t
up or whether it is original or not,
but it deserves to be put among the
famous aphorisms-I believe that is the
word l want-any way want to say
that it deserves to be among the wise
sayings of the age And it should be
burned deep and lasting into every
heart and soul in this good town OF
Newberry. 1t read like this: "Wln-
ners don't knock. Knockers don't
win" it is as true as the gospel +
salvation. | wonder more people don't
see it and practice it. You know, this
is good old town in many respects,
but I would be willing to wager my
last years panama suit that there IS
no town with the same number OF
square inches and the same number
of people to the square inch that can
produce more knockers than can this
goodly town of Newberry. ! really
don't think they mean any harm but
they just got the taabit and can't help
it. reckon, but Lord knows they
should try to help it. That's one habit
t.ey should get rid of. You know you
can really get the habit of going to
church, and really with many people
it is habit more than anything else.
But lets get back to the apnorlsm
1t is so true. Think Of it, you good
people of Newberry Knockers don
win. Winners don't knock That's
put backwards. It's just the same.
True as the gospel of salvation. Wnen
You knock your town who do you
knock. Don't you knock yourself?
Just as much as anybody else. Stop.
Think. Consider. These three Will
do you good. Help one another.

There's never home so proud and

That l am constrained to pass it by;
Nor heart so happy it may not be
Happier still when blest by met
What is my name? All! VINO can tell,
Though in every land It's a magic

Men call me that, and they call me

Yet the different names are the same,
