We have found another member Of
our family who has been a member
since he was 16 years old-Mr. B. L.
Dominick of Newberry, r. F. D. A.
Without saying how old he is he tells
US that it will only be short time until
he will have place on the honor roll
of having been a subscriber for half
century. The loyalty of such members
of The Herald and News household is
very gratifying and we are encouraged
to serve them better than ever before.

The Herald and News publishes ar
interesting article in this issue on "a
Fatal Combination. Read it, especially
if you are user of gasoline. We have
frequently seen the chamois skin used
as strainer of gasoline. This
article says it is most dangerous thing
to do. In fact we have been using such
strainer in the office for the gasoline
that we use. We suppose this fellow
knows what he is talking about. At any
rate it would be we'll to read what he
says.

The price for this week is only one dol

matter to you but IN the aggregate a
verv big thing to us.

II the city will enforce the traffic or
dinance it is a pretty good ordinance,
but if it is not there will be some &C
cident. It does seem strange that there
should be necessity for force and law
to make people protect themselves. We
suppose every fellow thinks he can take
care of himself, and unfortunately we
do not care enough about the welfare
of the other fellow.

the other day that he expected to see a
cotton famine in this country about
August. That is all of the present crop
used and the next crop not yet ready
for market. We believe that the fellow
who holds on will get a better price in
the early spring, but it is all speculative
and we would not have any one do so
on what we say.

A TALK WITH THE FAMILY.

TWlXt me and you, want to say
word. When I decided to put on the
sale of The Herald and News for $I.oo
until the first of March it was with the
purpose, as stated, to give all who are
in arrears the opportunity and induce
ment to catch up again and get ahead.
A good many have taken advantage of
this cheap sale. Many whose time is
not yet out have taken advantage of it,
and many new members have been add
ed to the family and I want to give
them warm and cordial welcome. All
who have paid up to and through last
Friday have been cradited on the label
on their papers Examine that and see
if you have the proper credit.
went over the mailing list very care
fully on Saturday l find that there are
still about 500 who have not placed
themselves in the 1916 class. Now,
am going to give you one more call. l
have mailed to each one letter appeal
ing to you to pay what you were due,
and giving you the date to which you
have paid AS the first of March comes
in the middle of the week, and as we
run our books by the week, I am going
to give another opportunity to every
member of the family to contribute one
dollar for one year on what is due up
and until the office closes on Saturday
night of this week Positively no fur
the4, extension, and it will be long
time before you will be able to secure a
twice a week 8 page six column paper
for that price We have received two
notices from our paper dealer quite re-
Gently advising of 20 per cent raise in
the price of paper And that is not
guaranteed. The price is likely to go
up over night. But since we have start
ed this campaign we will see it out, and
the time is extended to Saturday of this
week. Positively no further extension,
and all who do not get in the 1915 class
will be taken from our list unless some
arrangemnt is made. We hate to part
with you, but can't help it if you do not
avail yourself of this opportunity.
Last week I2o took advantage of the
price and Al of these did SO on satur-
day. Do not wait, but send the dollar
right along. We will take it on satur-
day but not after that date Don't for
get this.
Examine the label on your paper and
see if after your name the date is '16 or
beyond If it is not get yourself in
shape to make it read 'I6 by Saturday.
After the 18th of March-we correct our
list on the first and fifteenth of each
month-all who are not in the 1916 class
will be taken off, and you have the op-
portunity this week to get there at the
rate of one dollar year, and, except in
very rare cases, it will take only one
dollar for any one to get there. Examine
your label. E. H. IA

There is really no reason for cotton to
decline in price except speculation. The
total crop this year was only 100000
bales and the consumption in this coun-
try is over seven million bales and there
has already been exported four mil
lion bales and the foreign market will
want and get more than four million
bales,of the present supply,in this coun7
Try. We heard a cotton mill man say
