Standard Oil Company Re.
duces Gasoline.

While there has been no material
relief from any of the conditions
which brought about the rise in the
price of petroleum products, the
Standard Oil Company, N. j., believ-
es that the process of readjustment
now under way in the business world
must eventually contribute to lower
costs of producing and refining OIL.
To date there has been no lowering
of labor costs nor crude oil prices,
nor recession in the demand for gas
oline. Reductions which have al
ready taken place in many Of the
principal items entering into the cost
of living have for the most part not
reached the ultimate consumer, but
it is inevitable that before long
lower prices will be brought about by
new quotations now PREVAILING in
primary markets. The Standard Oil
Company IN. J.) believes that this
movement towards restoration OF
what are popularity considered nor
NAL prices should be aided by the oil
industry.

from Hartsville to spend the week
end with his. family and was very
cordially greeted by his friends here.
While Hartsville is a good town Mr..
Holston says there is no place like
Edgefeld. It is also much cheaper to
live here than in Hartsville.
Not only the members of the Meth
odist church but the people of Edge
field, irrespective of church affilia-
tion, are delighted that Rev. G. W.
NJ. Taylor, the beloved pastor of the
Methodist church has been returned
to this field by the bishop in making
the pastoral assignments.
Armistice Day was fittingly cele-
brated in the school auditorium Thurs
day morning. A short patriotic ad-
dress was made by Mr.. Melton who
was in Edgefeld at the time in the
interest of the lyceum. The talented
young ladies who participated in the
lyceum entertainment rendered some
appropriate music. The time should
never come when our people will
fail to observe Armistice Day in some
suitable way.

Could Be Worse.

While conditions are bad in this
county, yet they are not as bad as
in some other portions of the cotton
belt. Mr.. ]. G. Afford says he has a
brother who operates public gin
merry in Putnam county, Georgia, the
central portion Of the State where
the boil weevil has been very disas-
trous this year, and his ginnery was

of cotton. Farmers averaged in that
section about two bales of cotton to
the plow.
