Laurens, Union and Spartanburg

ing neT electric railway connecting
the main cities of the county, anu
Whitmire is laying low and saying
nothing, but if our neishbors get the
road they Will soon be offering us in

Somebodies in Newberry please take
notice
Within the past few years there has
been a marked decrease, it is believ-
ed, in the patronage that is being ac-
corded the mail-order houses. The
people are beginning to find that they
can get their goods al home just as
cheap as they can order them, ana
often times much cheaper-Spartan~
burg Journal. That was good talk
the Journal gave the Spartanburg
readers.
One cannot escape the conclusion
that our school teachers, as a class,
are very poorly paid. The present
high cost of living, about which We
hear so much, is working serious
hardship on many teachers in our
schools. The salary is small even for
times of low prices.-Union Times.
this is about as good a remark as the
Times ever uttered, and We hope all
the teachers in Newberry county will
be better treated in future.
"Any magistrate who gets excited
because a person appears in court
chewing gum ought to leave the
bench That was what higher

on man for chewing gum in mis-
court. We only mention this to tell
Magistrate Douglas and the other
. magistrates Of the county to hold
their equilibrium when lawyers ap-
pear before then to argue cases; be-
cause why, whereas the attorneys
may not chew gum, some of them are
pretty apt at times to Chew the
rag

Rufus Counts aid Bella Stewart,
both colored, live in the Deadfail
neighborhood. On three different oc-
casions Bella had turkey stolen
from her premises. The thief made
the times between stealing far ell
ough apart, as he stole the first tur-
key on last Thanksgiving day, the
second on Christmas day and the last
on the 9Th instant. Just one week
after he had stolen the last turkey
Deputy Taylor from the sheriff office
had him He was taken before Mag
