%"Ah, ha. 1 see. That is the reason
Billy Mink made such a funny re-
mark to poor Three-legs. He is jeal-
Gus and he never said that the King
wanted to build a ferry. He never
even said hat the King was here, but
merely mentioned that there were
some Forest Dwellers who wanted to
be carried across the river, and sug-
gested hat it would be a great task.
OF course Three-legs agreed with him
and decided not to come out"
There was great sorrow in the eyes
Of Billy Mink as he heard Mr.. Turtle
telling the King the whole truth. He
couldn't run away now. and what else
to do he did not know. Tinker Bob
looked at him for a moment and then
said: Poor Mr.. Mink is Jealous of
Three-legs the Muskrat."

Editor of The Herald and News:
Without cosulting me, some OF the
citizens of Ward 4 have been kind
enough to do me the honor Of an
nouncing my name as candidate for
Alderman from that ward. Situated
as / am l feel that l could not give the
position the attention that should be
required in case 1 should be honored

gagged in requires my absence from
Newberry the greater part Of the

Give "Uncle Dick Some Flowers
Now While He Can Appre-
ciate Them.

In a recent issue of The Herald
and News Mr.. r. H. Greneker gave
his farewell to his friends on Harring-
ton street. As the time draws near
for him to leave our midst and go to
another part Of town we wish to say
that we will miss him. Our devotion
for him is unmeasurable for it ex-
tends from the heart of the youngest
baby to that of the oldest resident on
Harrington street. In expressing
these few words of sincere regret we
are by no means going to forget what
ne has meant to US during his stay
in our neighborhood. His whole ma
ture is a wealth Of sunshine, humor
flows from his heart like a sparkling
spring, his presence and greetings
seem always a message of cheer and
good will and his integrity we can
always rely upon.
Now dear E'Uncle Dick" though
you are moving into another part Of
town you can still pass by our street
and We will always be glad to see you
and we hope you will consider that
"the longest way around is the sweet
est way home" Instead of any more
bouquets now, please read the fol-
lowing lines for they express our SEN
timents toward "Uncle Dick"
:'If you like him, or you love him,
tell him now,
Don't withhold your appreciation un-
til the parson makes grafton,
And he lies with snowy lilies on his
brow,
For no matter how you shout it, he
won't really care about it.
He won't know how many teardrops
you have shed,
If you think some praise is due him.,
now's the time to slip it to
him,
For he can not read his tombstone
when he's dead"

blacksmith, while buying some ban
anas Saturday received a bite from a

he shook it off, when the proprietor
of the store killed it. The hand was
rapidly and very much swollen from,
the bite when Dr.. J. Keifer Wicker
was called to attend the suffering
man. The doctor successfully treated
the wound and Davis is getting along
all right. Davis rightly feels that

MEETING PROVES TO BE
VERY ENTHUSIASTIC
Two Volunteer Signefs-Agricultur-
al Committee Heartily Endorses
Plan.

The meeting held at the court
house Saturday in the interest OF
cooperative marketing of cotton prov
ed very enthusiastic, and was attend
cd by a large number Of planters and
cotton growers Of Newbeify county.
The meeting was called to order by
NJ. J. L. Keitt, chairman Of the
NewDerry county division Of the Am
erican Cotton association, WEo attc.'
a few brief remarks introduced Mr..
Alfred Scarborough of Eastover, who
was the principal speaker of the day.
Mr.. Scarborough's address was not
only interesting, but educational, as
he brought out many points regarding
the proper marketing Of cotton that
many growers of Newberry county
are not familiar with. Mr.. Scarbor-
ouch declared that if ever the time
had come when farmers and cotton
growers must cooperate, it IS at the
present time. "If the growers eX-
pect to grow cotton under boil wee
vii conditions, and to get fair price
for what they produce, they must
come together in one large organiza-
ton which is being organized for the
sole purpose of properly marketing
cotton for the entire South" he stat
ed.
Mr.. Scarborough went somewhat
into detail as to the principles of the
South Carolina Cotton Growers Co.
operative association, stating that 1t
is not the purpose of this organization
to demand high price for cotton, but
to get price that will enable the
grower to live equally as web as the
buyer. It is the purpose of this or
eanization to eliminate the specuia-
tors and gamblers by selling direct to
the mills. In dosng-this, the cotton
would not all be dumped on the mar
ket at one time, but held in warehous-
es until the demand called for the
sale. The speaker stated that i've
states in the cotton producing section
had already signed up almost soiidly
and that others were falling in line
every day, and that if the farmers and
growers of South Carolina were to
reap the benefits to be derived from
this association, they, too, must fall
in line.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Scarbor-
ough's address, resolutions were pass
ed heartily endorsing the association,
and the chairman, together with the
county demonstration agent and the
AGRICULTURAL committee of our cham
ber of commerce were instructed to
appoirt strong committee to organ
ize Newberry county.
Two Volunteer Signers
1t was not the purpose of the meet
ing Saturday to ask any one to sign
the contract with the association, but
at the close of the meeting, Mr.. ). l..
Keitt signed for one hundred and
forty bales, while Mr.. D. L. Wedaman
signed for forty bales.
Later in the day the agricultural
committee of our chamber Of com
merce had a called meeting, at which
time resolutions were adopted hearth
ly approving plans as outlined by the
South Carolina Cotton Growers Co.
operative association. Later in the
week the organization committee for
Newberry county will be named. 1t
will be the duty of this committee
to make thorough canvas of the
county to sign up every grower pos
sible.
