VIZ ASHINGTON. - Widespread APP
w prevail of the proposal to give
President Harding power to veto sin
gle items in appropriation bills through
the adoption Of an amendment TO the
Constitution is being manifested in
scores Of letters received, says Senator
Kenyon Of Iowa. According TO him the
public has been quick TO sense the
value of this delegation of power not
only as a measure of economy, but al
so In putting a check on the practice

Easy Saving.

You have no bother or embarrass-
ment to remember to go to the bank
or to save even as little as rs cents.
There will be collectors in each de-
partment who will accept savings
right thsre in the mill and give a
perfectly good receipt. These COL
lectors will be elected by the opera
tives of the department in which
they serve.
The money and duplicate re-
ceipts will be turned over to a treas
,urer who will deposit the entire
amount in the Operatives Trust Co.
This money if left in the bank un-
til December Is will draw interest
at the rate of 8 per cent per year.
This does not mean eight cents on
every dollar unless that dollar has
been on deposit for one year but
even at that such interest rates on
small savings have never before
been offered. This is almost paying
us to do what we all want to do any
way and it is possible only because
the Operatives Trust Company is a
Partnership institution also and does
not pay any salaries or rent or hold
back tremendous and unfair profits
for the stockholders alone.
Make up your mind now to join
this plan as soon as it starts and it
will seem like a fairy story to find
saving so easy and profitable.

Brighter Hopes.

Orders for nearly 100000 yards
of oupe cloth to be delivered before
the end of August indicate a gradu-
ally improving market for our prod
uct which justifes brighter hopes for
our partnership. One million one
hundred yards are to be taken from
the warehouse and will be big help
toward clearing up the work of the
past few months and letting US start
our new fiscal year on an even foot
ing. The prices received for this
cloth from other mills was bringing
pared with the cost of it's production
to offset the loss on the cloth from
the warehouse which was produced
while costs were still high.
One fact of which we can well be
proud is that one order gave US near
ly cent a pound more than similar
cloth fro mother mills was bringing
on the market. This was simply be-
cause of the satisfaction our cloth had
given before and proves the value of
establishing and keeping a good rep
utation.

Mothers Are Entertained

Every mother that is not a mem
Der of the Mothers Club will realize
what she is missing when she learns
of the nice social that we had last
month. Miss Lizzie Edmunds and
Miss Gwen Bristow started the
evening off by giving several vocal
selections, and some recitations. At
ter these, a race to New York was
run by Mrs. Davenport, president Of
the club, and Miss Rebecca Edmunds.
Mrs. Davenport won by a short mar
gin, and received a box Of candy as
a prize. At the close of the enter
tainment, mint sherbet and fancy
cakes were served. The evening was
a delightful one, and we sincerely
hope there will be more to enjoy the
next simialr event.

Good Partners

In the rush of recent orders call
ing for immediate delivery our part
ners in the cloth room showed the
sort of spirit which is sure to bring
success if all Of us equally well.
George Williams and "Bud" Smith
at the press put 100000 yards of
cloth in 108 bales within
nine hours or an average of five min
utes per bale. We congratulate these
two partners on having established
such splendid record when time was
such an important factor in making
the delivery.
The girls who are inspecting the
cloth also won recognition for their
steady, faithful work. They did so
well in the. hot weather that a big
churn of ice cream was sent into
their department for them by Mr..
Langley just before stopping time.
A little bit better business and
such cooperation will make the fl-
ture very much brighter for our

A Valuable Conference.

An event of vital interest to our
Partnership will be the Southern In
dustrial Conference on Human rela-
tions in Industry to be held at Blue
Ridge, N. c. on July 29-31. This is
being promoted by the, Y. M. C. A.
but all mills and manufacturing
plants of the South are invited to be
represented. =
Noted men who are working to-
ward the same idea as our Partner
ship will tell of their studies and ex-
perience, and opportunity will be
given for open discussion of plans
or for questioning any of the speak
ers. 1t is only by such intercourse
between men who are working on the
same problems that confront US that
our plan can develop to the point of
being anything like nationally impor-
tant. We have splendid start in the
race toward industrial democracy but
it is perfectly possible for US to be-
come too self centered and be beaten
by others who have plodded along
more slowly than we so far.
Mr.. A. o. Roche, T. J. Reames,
Miss Ward and A. R. Thomas will at
tend the conference as representa-
tives of our Plan. This is of real i'm
portance to US in two ways; we must
keep up with new ideas ourselves and
we must let others know of the real
ly progressive ideas we are working
out.

Recent Deaths.

On July II Mr.. W. P. Norrell, one
of the oldest residents of our village
was taken by death. Mr.. Norrell had
worked in the AIbbeville Cotton Mills
for nearly fifteen years before he
was compelled 80 give up his active
life some time ago because of the in
firmities Of advancing age and sick
ness. i
Mr.. .Norrell is survived by eight
children, five of whom live in our
village. Our sympathy is extended
to all the family and especially to
those who are our neighbors.
Our sympathy also goes out to
Mr.. and Mrs. Archie Brown who lost
their baby daughter, May, by death
as a result of heart trouble last
Monday. Mr.. and Mrs. Brown have

from being son Of Mr.. J. B. Lang

cause of his own splendid character.
His was one of the promising lives
snuffed out by war and the loss is
