Farmers are very well up with
their work. Corn is up and mos

Guess we will 90 a-fshing this
week. If our neighbor, D. T.
Mathis, can pull a fourteen pound
one ont of Horns creek, we are
looking for some better from Sa
vannah waters this week Mr.. j.
w. Johnson is our champion fish
erman but we lave heard nothing
from him this spring. He is very
anxious for fish fry on the river
provided all the lazy men will eo
down and help him catch the fish,
and the ladies will come in calico
dresses. We would be glad to have
some of our old Edgefeld friends
come over to Mccormick county,
the "Baby County" and fish with
u.s.
Well, we have been cut off from
you but we want you to come to
see us. We have many pleasant
memories of you good people and
love to see you when we can.
Some of our ladies have with sad
hearts remarked a few days ago,
What are we going to do without
Mrs. Minis as our county president?
They declare that when possible
they are going to attend every Edge
field county meeting. Then comes
the men: What are we to do with
out o. Sheppard, the best associa-
tion moderator in the State. Well
there is this about it---your meetings
will not be any farther from US
hereafter than they have always
been, so as we have no Mexican or
German line to cross We are COM
ing to be with you in these good
meetings.
No, the peaches were not all kill
ed last week but many of them
were. The orchards have been
worked betterthis spring thans.we
ever saw before.
Lettuce is being shipped every
day and brings good prices. Straw
berries will go this week.
Fulghum oats are heading but
the root and head are not very far
apart. Some Sudan grass will be
planted to follow oats.
Mrs. Carrie Nixon is on visit to
her son, Mr.. ]. P. Nixon, and we
were all glad to have her with us
in Sunday school yesterday. We
had delightful Sunday school with
a total attendance of 80, the collec-

tors with us, Miss II. H. Wright of
Greenville, Miss Annie Mae Minis
of the old Falfa neigbborhood,
Messrs. D. T. Mathis, t. NJ. Adams
and Frank Adams of Golfers.
These young gentlemen were invi-
ted by DR.. Adams of Plum Branch
to come up 70 his home and he took
them to Clemson college in his car.
They were so greatly pleased with
this trip, with Anderson and Green

ready to sell out and move. My,

lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro.
duees kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sIeeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful efferveseent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

Buyers Choose The
Store that Advertises

Most people pass right by the store that's be-
hind the times and patronize the modern, up
to-date store where all the latest and best
methods of doing business are in use.
The store thar is up-to-date is the one that
advertiSes. The very atmosphere about the
store IS reflected IN the announcements, for ad-
vertising suggests modern methods-progress,
good merchandise and cheerfulness in max

BROTHERHOOD OF MAN
SURE TO BE REALITY
what Christmas Means to Me- -
Subject Of Sermon by Rev.
G. A. Decker.

There is a sense of neighborli-
ness in the world and it will fiT7lly
dominate the peoples of the earth, q"
said Rev. Charles A. Decker, pastor
of the First Baptist church in his
sermon on, What Christmas Means
to Me-" at the Sunday school Christ
mas exercises held Sunday evening.
Rev. Decker pointed cut how this
spirit of brotherhood, of neighborli-
ness. has grown out of the teaching
of Christ and said, that at present
seemingly strange, the brotherhood
of man is sure TO become a reality
If we continue 10 follow Jesus and
TO preach his doctrine of human
brotherhood and the divine father
hood.
Christmas means, first" he said.
the day when God spoke most
clearly TO men. This was not the
first time God had spoken but it was
the most important one. He had
dealings with prophets and saints
of the olden days, but now He
speaks a message in terms that are
unmistakable. The result is that if
we want TO know what God is,
what He says, and what He does we
can find the answer TO our questions
in the life and teaching Of the Man
who was born on the first Christmas
day."

NEW WOMAN IS
MENACE TO HOME
Marrying Late or Not at All,
Says Pastor in Sunday
Sermon.

New" women Of today are mar
rying late in their lives, If they
marry at all, and by dong this they
are undermining the family life, ac-
cOrding 10 statements made by Rev.
Melvin c. Hunt in his sermon at
Trinity NJ. Z. church Sunday morn
ing The pastor said that the change
in women had had more influence
on the family group than any in
vention of the present age.
The new woman is not a joke,
nor is she a. fiction, Rev. Hunt said.
He pointed out that she is new
because of her expanding intellect
and her entrance into all but three
Of the 500 listed professions and Oc-
equations. The pastor claimed that
she has taken up the various pro-
fessions and occupations successful
~ and has proved an equal and Of
ten superior TO her male competitor.
The coming age, said Mr.. Hunt,
will be one where electrical and
chemical forces are dominant and
woman's dizziness and keener sensi-
bilities may make her the favored
one in world achievement in that
new day so near at hand. All this
has resulted in the increasing indie
pendence of woman. knowing her
economic independence, she marries
late. if at all. These tendencies that
are considered alarming are noted
in the census reports. Both of these
facts are of deep sociological i'm
portance and profoundly influence
the modern family. one result of
this condition appears TO be the dy-
ing of society at the top with a cor
responding replacement at the bot
tom"
Rev. Mr.. Hunts sernan was de-
livered at the annual family day
services. Entire families were seat
ed together and the church was
filled. A floral gift was presented
TO the largest family present. The
subject of the sermon was Jesus

The speaker then went on 10 show
how different is being crowned,

born a king. He said that when they
wished TO proclaim Jesus a king he
refused because He had been born
king. Continuing, he said: The

and what is this one who was born
king? Everyone wants 10 know him
