tenement life.
Those who saw winsome Bessie
Love in "Hell-to-Pay Austin will
want to see her in "a Sister of Six"
at the opera house Friday. 1t is a
story of a little girl who takes care
of her orphan brothers and sisters.
At the meeting of citizens on Tues
day night Mayor Wright was asked
to continue his Investigations as to
the establishment of gas plant. This
is good news for many Of the ladies
and We hope the mayor will be sue
cessful.
The bride carried a beautiful bou
quet of onions and wore around
! her neck a string of genuine potatoes,
with squash pendant, the gift of the
groom. The Greenville News says
that will be a society item in Febru-
ary, 1919.
Everybody more or less (and
great deal more than less) will be
glad that Manager Henry B. Wells is
to remain in possession Of the opera
house, the city council having decid-
ed in his favor at the meeting Tues
day night.
1t will pay you to get Sensible
SIX when you buy an automobile, as
you may see by the ad. of the Caro-
, lima Auto. Co. See Smith, "Mr. Bill
who is ready to attend to your wants
in this direction, as we'll as in some
other lines Of good and fast cars.
Congressman Dominick has sue
ceded in raising the one thousand dol
lars for the Democratic deficit. So
far as we have learned he beat the
! other congressman in raising this
fund.-Tugaloo Tribune. We are glad
to see that the Tug. Trib. keeps 1ts
eye open.
We don't know how swift others
are on typewriters, but if this writer
could handle his little Royal STAN
dard with the swiftness that Mr.. Issie
B. Mann does the machines in the Of
flee of Clerk of Court Goggans ne
I wouldn't hesitate to enter a race for
the worlds championship.
At the regular meeting of the city
council Tuesday night it was agreed
to order two new khaki suits each for
the police force. We believe the citi-
zens genrally will be pleased with
this action of council. Policemen
ought to be made and kept as COM
to-table and neat in appearance as
'.ssible.
So many people did not get to see
-. Little Girl Next Door when she
was shown at the Arcade, and every
body having heard so much about 1t
from the crowds that did see the pic
ture, that it has been recalled to New
berry and has been secured by the
Arcade for Thursday, the 18th, which
will be next Thursday.

Mr.. Campbell, the new janitor at
the court house, takes pride in keep
ing the house clean, downstairs as
we'll as upstairs. We like to see
man take pleasure in his work. 1t
pleases the public. And it is a great
thing to please the public. Very few
people can please the entire public,
and it is hard to do so at any one
time.
A lady in this city had hen that
lay two eggs day for week, not
tive days. Then the hen died sudden
ly, fell from the roost and dropped
dead. She was a remarkable bird to
day two eggs a day for week, not
counting Sunday The cause Of her
! death is not known, but it is not sup
posed to have been for the want Of
fresh air.
Some of the leading men on Carrier
~. H. Eddy's route have been doing
good work in dragging the roads, es-
pecially the road from Mr.. Walter I.
Herbert's to Deadfall. If more such
work should be seen to it would enable
the carriers to make their rounds In
quicker time. which it seems to us
from this distance. or to the man up
a tree" ought to be considered by all
interested parties.
Newberry's pat Wise. who stands
pat on it, has been talking so much
about selling more mules than all his
competitors combined that in hand
ling the word ''competitors' so often

newspaper error, but We have to give
him a free notice. He has just re-
ceived his fourteenth load Of mules
for this season. And the fifth episode
of "The Great Secret will be shown
