Vice President Coolidge and lists
such men as the French Ambassa-

In the course of the corespon-
dence it developed that 25 gallant

sleeping in this cemetery in France
and that their names could be OBJ
tanned of the association.
The purpose of the association
is simply to rebuild the little
French town of Belleau just as it
was before the war, the cost of
about 100000 is to be raised by
popular subscription of one dollar
each every cent of which is to be
spent in Belleau, as overhead ex-

SLAUGHTER
SWANTON in
TWO GAMES
NewpOrt's Heavy Swat
ters Have Easy Time
With Opponents

In pair of easy games over the
week end, Newport took the highly
touted Swanton baseball team IN
to camp on both counts. Swan
ton was slaughtered in the initial
contest at Newport on Saturday
afternoon by the score of 21 to g.
The game with Swanton on the
latter's grounds on Sunday after
~noon was also a facile victory,
Newport winning by the score OF
10 to 3.
Both games soon developed into
mere walk-aways for the local
sluggers, who endeavored to amuse
the fans by changing positions IL
order to give the opposing team
more of lookin. Connie Kirwan
started on the mound for the bor-
der city lads in the game Saturday
but, with good lead, the little
portsider was sent to the outer
garden and the versatile Benny
Tryon was given an opportunity
to try his hand at heaving the pei
let.
Ginger Bruce was also given Il
chance to perform on the slab and
set the bleachers rollicking with
laughter when he wiffed Delaney,
was characterized by ambidexter-
.ous but clever service.

Before a good sizer crowd at
Swanton, the home team put up
a slightly better exhibition of base
ball and this time was beaten by
10 to 3, which was considerable i'm
provement over the score of the
previous day Shelton was sent to
s'the mound but Captain Ross found
it unnecessary to keen the border
city ace there in order to win.

WEEK FOR
COLUMBIA MERCHANTS
RETAIL CREDIT ASSOCIATION TO
b WAGE CAMPAIGN FOR FIRST
WEEK IN FEBRUARY.

! (From Wednesdays Daily Herald.)
The first week in February, or from
February first to eighth, has been de-
signated by the Columbia Retail Cred
| it Association as "Pay-Up Week" in
Columbia.
The purpose of the week is for all
who can to pay off all their debts, or
arrange satisfactorily for taking care
Of what they owe. BY paying UP you
l-establish a line OF credit that will be-
to your advantage in the future. These
merchants whose names are signed to
the advertisements that are being
put out hold regular meetings and dis
cuss credits. They know who is pay
ing and who is not paying. They do
this in order to keep the professional
fdebt d0dger from getting in to every
merchant. They do it for protection.
Pay your debts and keep your credit
up to one hundred percent II, by
any reason, you are not able to pay
up now, see your merchant and tell
him SO. Explain to him why you can
not, and make arrangements for the
future. Don't hesitate TO discuss it
with him. He will be fair. If you can't
pay all, pay what you can, and ar
range for the balance. This is nothing
1 81 i
more than the merchant has to do.
He buys goods from the manufactar,
or jobber, on thirty, sixty or ninety
days time, and in most of the cases
it is thirty days. At the end of thir..
ty days the jobber of merchant wants
his money and gets 1t. If the mer-
chant hasn't got it to his credit he
either calls OH Marse Charley, Marse
George or Marse Henry He has to
get the money one way or another.
Now unless you keep him paid ~. he
loses his credit standing with his
banker and with the jobber and man.
ufaeturer. 1t is wheel within a,
wheel. Let's make February / to
the biggest week in our history.
