LANCER SIGNS FOR
SOUTHERN RAILWAY

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 2S.-"Barhcr
pole" signs have been painted on all
Southern railway crossing gates in
further effort to attract the atten-
ton of reckless automobile drivers
and so prevent accidents at crossings.
Experience has shown that many
drivers dash across railway tracks
without regarding the "Stop, Look and
Listen" signs and some of them have
even crashed through gates provided
for the protection of crossings.
The new device painted on cross
ing gates is in accordance with the
standard recommended by the Amer
lean Railway association and con-
Slsts of alternate black and white
stripes eight inches wide. running at
an angle of 10 degrees. which gives
the familiar "barber pole" effect
1t is hoped that by making this de-
vice the standard for all crossing
gates it will become recognized as q
danger sign, so as to command the
respect of even the most Needless
driver of motor car

out the entire catalogue of individuals
who are benefited by an attendance
upon Fairs in general but to be more
specific and give a few reasons why
Union County People Should Attend
the Union County Fair"
We could shorten the record by
stating the proposition negatively and
say, "God pity the man who shuts him
self up in his own narrow limitations
and stays at home" "Breathes there

himself hath said, this is my own. NV
native land"
When wise Providence placed us
in Union County, South Carolina. he
placed us in the grandest county of
the grandest and proudest State that
the sun shines on. He placed us in
the most delightful climate on the
globe. He gave US the most polite.
the most sincere, the most sympa-
thctlc and the most progressive pcopIe
on earth. He blessed the ucopIo of
Union county with Il land that flows
with milk and honey.
10 live Is to be happy and WHY
should we not come to our County
falr and enjoy the social intercourse
provided in our annual meeting. II
Is a privilege indeed to meet together
and enjoy seeing our friends and in
tcrchange ideas as to how to nakn
the best of the things around Us and
thus maintain the high standards ur
efficiency which we have set up i'm our
various occupations and industries.
we get new ideas and new energy and
inspiration from seeing the evidences
of the prosperity of our ncighbors.
we make new acGuaintances, and ev-
cry man should know the people of
MS own community, we learn from
their experiences and profit by their
examples. We get ideas from the lead
ing men in every line of business and
every industry in the county. The
beautiful romances and happy mar
riages which grow out of these social
gatherings are the natural concomit-
ants of this yearly event.
Several years ago a gentleman from
Greenville, S. c., visited one of our
great expositions and among the
thousands of articles on exhibit he
was attracted by a pair of elegant
e&AEe-wlanibg bankets (which aasily,
Shtclassed its fSflows 7He becaine so
much interested that he inquired as to
where they were made and what firm
manufactured them. To his profound
astonlshment he learned that thew
were manufactured in his home town
of Greenville within stones throw
of his home. This incident touches
the Keynote as to why Union county
people should attend their County
Far. We should know the products
OF our farms and factories. Our pro
ducts are exported to every country
IN the world and our factories manu-
facture goods that rank in the first
hleS of this manufacturing age. This
exposition is spread before us. We
owe 1t to ourselves to come and en-
JOY this harvest of knowledge. We
owe 1T to our neighborS TO come and
rejoice with them in the triumnhs of
their achievements. We owe il to
our county to come and revcl with her
in the glorics of her conqucstS over
industry. For truly our county was
outlined by Him who made Orion and
the Pleiades.

At the Union County Fair,

At the Union County Fair,
Old Vinson has a Jersey COW,
An she's as fine as silk,
She simply breaks the record when
1t comes to giving milk.
An as for butter, sakes olives;
Her match amt anywhere
But what's the use of tellin' this?
You'll see her at the Union County
Fair.
Old Neighbor Haystack has sow
AS fine as fine can be,
They say she weighs a thousand
pounds
An has pedigree.
She has a dozen baby pigs,
Plum beauties, I declare,
But what's the use of tellin' this?
You'll see them at the Union County
Fair.
Old Bill Stokes, the chicken man,
That lives across the way,
He has hen that takes the cake
Lays once or twice a day.
At least that's what Old Billy says,
An Billy wouldn't dare
To lie about his hen, because
Well have her at the Union Coun-
ty Fair.
Old Farmer Brown has raised somr
corn,
That knocks the record flat,
The ears are twenty inches long
Well, maybe hardly that.
But. anyway, there amt no corn
Can beat it, anywhere,
But what's the use of tellin' this??
You'll see it at the Union County
Fair.
If we are to make Union County
South Carolina, the great, rich, ro-
mantle land it ought to be the farmer,
the banker, the merchant and the
town farm owner must work together
by bringing exhibits and attending
the Union County Fair. By attending
the Fair we inspire the farmers to
work together for better crops, more
and better livestock and more home
raised foods and feeds. This yearly
meeting develops a richer country, a
better social life and keener COM
munity spirit. The Fair promotes a
greater spirit of fraternity and broth
erhood and increases the community
of interest between the town residents
and the country residents.
We should attend the Fair because
we want to rival in friendly wav
our friends, neighbors and strangers
from other communities.

FIND WASTE WOOD
WILL PRODUCE DYE

Kansas City, Mo, Oct. 2S.-Car-
loads of the waste of Usage orange
wood daily are passing through here
for the East, where it is being con-
Verted into dyes as a result of inves-
tlgations carried on by laboratory
at Madison, Wis. Most of the wood
comes from Oklahoma. Before the
establishment of this industry the
waste had no commercial value and
the dye extracting plants imported
their wood from Mexico and Central
America.

WHY UNION COUNTY PEOPLE SHOULD
ATTEND THE UNION COUNTY FAIR

The ancient Greeks had the great
Olympian games, which, in their in
fancy, resembles our county fair, and
served almost the same purposes, viz,
to promote commerce, peace and unity.
When the Greeks held these games
they proclaimed "holy" season, and
everyone was expected to attend.
These great games helped to unite
Greece and brought them to higher
civilization. Just as our county fair
is meant to unite the people of the
county and bring them to greater
things.
Can you imagine how worthless
these games would have been had
the same way with our fair. 1t can't
do good unless you go and are willing
to learn. I think it would be time
well invested to set aside the three
days of the fair and attend. Some
farmers will say, give not got time,"
but it will pay him to see what his
ncighbor is doing in the way of bet
ter live stock and poultry.
There is the city who who says,
swell, if the farmer don't attend what
is the use of my going? 1t is his fair
and if he don't take enough interest
in it to attend why should II" So you
see how important it is for the farmer
to attend.
Then there are the young people
who should attend, for it is here
they will see their favor;te pure breed
live stoc kor poultry: in fact, the
"cream" of everything in the county.
1t will do them good" and may prove
their future success as farmers and
business men. Jack Burnett.
Sedalia High School.
The bes treason l know why Union
County people should attend the Un-
ion County Fair is because it is the
Union County Fair.
Next it occurs to me that the Fair
Association needs our assistance. For
years these progressive gentlemen of
the Association have been giving their
time and energy to improve conditions
throughout the county, and as our
town and county is what we make it.
If each citizen would give his best
support to the Fair our county would
soon be credit to the State. For in
stance, if each lady brought the best
of her pantry supplies, fancy and
needle work, even a we'll made button
hole, or neatly darned stocking, not
with the desire for prize, but hoping
to inspire some one else to do better
work.
Then all of your friends are going
to be there. Many of them who have
moved away are returning for a good
time, and an opportunity to renew old
acquaintance. Johnnie Crawford.

everybody take an interest in what
everybody else is doing, and try to
do as good or better. If everybody
would try to do better than the other
people and take an interest in what
other people of Union County are do

thriving county.

man, woman and child should make
an effort to attend the Union County

The Union county people should at
tend the County Fair for many rea-
sons
First is, if all the people in Union
county would attend the County Fair
there would be many benefits derived
from it along educational, agricul-
tural and household lines.
The woman would get ideas from
the display of fancy work and cooking
as well as the men would get them
from the agricultural products and
livestock.
Probably there may be rich men to-
day that made their fortunes by 90
ing to the County Fair and seeing the
display of things, such as farm pro-
ducts, a better breed of stock or poul-
try and saw where they could get bet
ter profits by raising them.
Another good reason is that the
County Fair does afford much pleas
ure to men, women, boys and girls in
Union county, because otherwise some
would not have that pleasure if it were
not in their own county. Not only
does it give pleasure and benefit coun-
TRY people but also town people to a
