building new tobacco barns, which we
think the wrong thing to do in these

now and wait until the war is over
to make money.
We think we have one of the best
schools at Raft Swamp under the
management Of Mr.. Anderson Britt
as principal and Miss Flora Carlyle
primary. we have had in many moons.
Both patrons and pupils seem to like
the teachers fine and when it comes
to teaching the children they are hard
to beat
Rev. L. E. Daily was in this COM
munity Friday afternoon on business
regarding the new church, which is to
be built soon
We are glad to welcome Mr.. J. A.
Carlyle and family back to our COM
munity after being away over a year.
Mr.. w. R. Carlyle and sister, Miss
Flora, have gone today to visit their
brother, Mr.. Zeb Carlyle, who is in
training at Camp Jackson.
