Pacolet, Route 1, (Rehoboth), July
live are having dry weather now,
and the wind has been blowing now
for several days and is surely max
ing cotton and corn look bad. Unless
we get rain soon / don't believe corn
will do any good, old corn especially.
Young corn does very well but it is
beginning to taSsle out where it is
only waist high. Most everybody is
up with their work now till it rains.
They say that they will wait on it
for awhile to see if it will rain but if
in few days they are going to put
one more furrow in their cotton and
let it go, so l think it will be the
best thing they could do to it.

The remarkable showing of Union
county in the number of enlistments
may be traced directly and Indirectly
to the interest in militar ytaken by
Capt. j. Frost Walker, Jr., who has
held the local military company to-
gether for some years, at cost OIL
time and money. Capt. Walkers most
soldierly act, however, has been to
remain in service when other men
have been promoted over him. The
people of Union have done their bit.
and Capt. Walker is responsible for
not a little of it.-Columbia Record.
The Union times. [volume] (Union, S.C.) 1894-1918, 1917-07-20

Union county enjoys the distinction
of being the only county in the State
from which no men wiz be drafted
for the first army. Union has already
contributed of her young men so free
~ to the national guard, the regular
army and the navy that her credits
for men already in the service out
number the first draft call 1t is a
fine record for the county. Union did
her full duty without waiting for the
draft. Hers was a volunteer service.
Though no men will be called from
Union in the coming drawing we
dresay there are many young men in
the county who will not be willing to
to wait for the second call and who
vii lenter some branch of the service

Edward W. Spirer, we'll known

the people OF this city. Mr.. Spirer
is known as a man who calls a spade

Before taking Tanlac," Mr.. Spirer

had no desire for eating, as every

caused gas and bloating. Pain and

Thanks to Tanlac." he ended
/ happily.
In this connection, Edward Hales

"As Mr. Spirer has explained. TanlaC
is an ideal reconstructive tonic-ap-

ant. Tanlac is an herbal remedy
and, as numberless persons have
claimed. goes right 20 the seat OF
trouble and helps nature to perform
its functions by Kidding the stomach

riches the blood and builds health

Richmond Socialists are not eager to
see their names placed on a city ticket.
The recent arrests of prominent
Socialists, for disloyal utterances, and
the raids on the l. w. w. leaders is be-
lieved to be the reason.
There are approximately IT'S men,
bers of the party in Richmond but only
six attended a meeting Sunday after
noon at the home of George H. Lane.
131 North Seventh street, called to
nominate city ticket.
"Have Cold Feet"
ct Looks like they have cold feet"
Lane, who is party leader, said Mon
day. "They are scared now but it
won't last very long"
Lane said he didn't believe the party
would have any candidate in the COM
ing municipal election for the reason
that none of the members want to have
their names placed on the ballot.
However a ticket may be placed in
the field because, according to Lane
it doesn't matter who is placed on it,
as Socialists vote for principle and
not the man.
Verlin Ballinger, secretary OF the
party, did not appear at the meeting.

JACK FROST
TO PAY FIRST
CALL TONIGHT

Old Jack Frost is scheduled to pay
his first visit of the season to Rich
mond Monday night.
Also the coolest. night OF the season
is predicted with the possibility OF the
temperature falling as low as 40 de-
grees, an unusual drop SO early in the
season.
1t was reported by Weatherman
Moore that Old Jack was heading to-
ward Richmond and if he does get
here Monday night or early Tuesday
morning it will be the first time in
many years that he has arrived SO
soon. Although he will be visible he
won't do much damage or none at all
for the temperature usually must drop
to around 35 to cause damage.
Best to Be Ready.
But of course temperature Is as er.
ratio as skittish colt SO it may not
even drop as low as 40. But its best
to be prepared.
Indications were Monday morning
that summer habiliments soon will be
disappearing and double bed comforts
resurrected. The temperature regis
tered 49 early in the morning but the
sharp winds made it feel like the bot
tom had dropped OUT
But even the oldest resident was
pleased with Sundays weather. 1t
wasn't too warm and it wasn't too cold
1t was ideal, they all agreed.

Unwritten Law Plea
of English Officer
Who Murdered Count

LONDON, Sept. 1o-Crowds Of cur
ious women and others clamored for
admittance to Old Bailey this morn
ing when the trial of Lieut. Douglas
Malcomb for the murder of Anton
Baumberg, pseudo count, begun.
The case, which has been character
ized as "a dream of passion is the
first here in which the .unwritten
law" is expected to be the sole defense
and is the most sensational in London
in many wears.
A coroners jury returned a verdict
of "justifiable homicide. after hear
ing Lieutenant Malcom's plea that he
killed Baumberg in defense sof his
wife's honor"
Thousands OF applications for tick
cts were made to the court room, but
it was decided not to issue any and the
police closed the doors as soon as the
court room was filled. A confession
by Malcolm's wife, who is called a
great beauty, that she became attach
ed to Baumberg while her husband
was at the front is expected to play
an important part in the trial which
will probably be concluded in two
days.
