on the farm during the past two
weeks. hence, haven't been able to
gather very much information. but
such as have give unto you.
The health of the community is
good and the farmers are very busv

Mr.. Editor: notice an article in
the last issue OF The News, October
18th, headed thus: THE Lille
white branch where forty Republ-
cans met over in Spartanburg and
organized a branch of the Republi-
can party. l am not surprised in
the least. The thing reminds me of
the Jointed snake; when you strike
the jointed snake a hard blow he

alone it will wiggle back together.
The only way to kill il is to mash ito
head. 1t also reminds us of the

whole snake.
All indications point to the big

make fair week red letter event for
Lancaster county.
