People, Must Decide.

Now. as has been pointed ont
above. this same North Dakota
industrial commission. which has
tailed to operate n $28, 900 -four
mill at Drake successfully will he

OGO plant at Grand Forks unless
the people of North Dakota decide .
otherwise.
The people must decide
whether or not it Is good business,
policy to leave men who have
: made u failure of q $28. 200 busi-
ness in charge of 100000
business.
There has already been nearly on
million dollars sunk in the Gran,
Forks plant and if this is not to b
a, loss the plant must be completed
and put in operation, but to do SO un
der the present administration woul,
involve even heavier loss il the rec
ord made by the Drake mill is take
as an indication.
But there is no, reason why tn
of the industrial commissio
who have failed to operate $500
plant successfully should be left j
charge of the s2.Oo0.000 plant.
If the people OF North Dakota Sc
fit to do so they have the, power t
put this bunch of incompetent politi

in their places men who will conduc

businesslike way.

Quarles-McDaniel.

On Sunday, November 81, 1920,
a beautiful wedding was solemnized
in Red Hill church when Miss Maggie
Quarles and Mr.. Arthur Mcdaniel
met at the altar and were united in
the holy bonds of matrimony by their
pastor, Rev. W. R. Barnes. The bride
entered the church with Miss Aminee
Quarles, her maid of honor and the
groom came down the opposite aisle
with his best man, Earl Prince. At
tendants were Miss Martha McDan-
iel with Mr.. Garrett Quarles, and
Miss Ella Quarles with Mr.. Warren
Johnson.
After the ceremony, which was
solemnized at 80 p. M, the bridal
party with a number of friends re-
paired to the home of Mr.. W. L. Nc
Daniel, father of the groom when a
sumptuous wedding dinner was serv-
ed and all present spent some hours
of pleasantness. At z p. M, between
forty and fifty guests gathered at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. w.
Quarles, father and mother of the
bride, where a beautiful and bounti-
full wedding supper was enjoyed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcdaniel have the
best wishes of many friends and rel
atives, who are glad that they will
make their home in the Red Hill
community.

u. D. c. Meeting.

The United Daughters of the Con-
federacy held very profitable meet
ing at the home of Mrs. A. A. Wood
son on Tuesday afternoon. AS each
one arrived they were presented with
a card tied with red ribbon on which
was written the U. D. c. slogan,
Educate our. youth and the future
will take care of ITSELF"
The meeting was called to- order
by the President, Mrs. Wright, who
read the letter of the National Presi-
dent, Mrs. Roy Mckinney, which adj
vocated three measures especially:
the hero education fund of $4,000
for aiding youths who went to war
before their education was finished.
The South Carolina delegation at the
General Convention raised their quo
ia of this on the floor and it is there
fore finished: the Jefferson Davis
monument, which monument has been
finished at his old home in Kentucky:
a memorial to faithful slave who,
during John Browns raid gave his
life rather than betray his master.
This last is in process of erection.
Plans for Lee and Jackson day
which will be celebrated next We'd
nesday at the school auditorium were
made.
Mrs. Woodson spoke on the Near
East Relief and the chapter decided
to adopt a child. Mrs. N. G. Evans
explained the Italian milk fund and a
personal contribution was made by
those present.
1t was decided to raise dues to
$1.25. Mrs. W. L. Dunovant made an
appeal to the chapter to call on the
county delegation to raise the age of
consent to eighteen years.
The historical program consisted
of a paper on General Longstreet,
who was born in Edgefeld, read by
Mrs. Dunovant, a sketch of Washing
ton Aston and some of his verses by
Miss Gladys Rives.
As cleaner, Mrs. Feltham read an
article and made some personal re-
marks on Stone Mountain and the
activities there.
The new words to the Battle Hymn
of the Republic made by Mrs. Wood
son were read and will be published
in the Veteran.
Plum pudding and cinnamon
sauce with coffee was served by Mrs.
Feltham, Mrs. W. S. G. Heath and
Mrs. Josephine Mcdonald. Little Jo-
sephine assisted in serving.

regarding market conditions which
would enable him to make shipments
to the best advantage. Just what as
paragus growers have achieved
through organization and co-opera-
ton in marketing is the goal that is
aimed by those who are working in
season and out of season to organize
cotton growers. The great question
of the hour with every producer, es-
pecially of cotton, is not making a
larger yield but the receiving of high
er and profitable prices for what is al
ready being made. The witnessing of
the splendid spirit of harmony and
unity of action-intelligent co-opera-
tion-on the part of the members of
the asparagus association was indeed
an inspiration. To have been an on
locker at such meeting was a rare
treat. The association adjourned to
meet in Williston the second Tues
day of next January.
Soon after the adjournment the
members of the association and visit
ors repaired to the Wise hall where a
sumptuous feast was served. Three
long tables were arranged the entire
length of the hall and seats were ar
ranged for all present. Immaculate
linen covered the tables and upon
them was spread menu the like of
which in quantity, variety and dainty
manner in which it was served one
seldom sees. After the turkey, ham,
dressing chicken salad, potato salad,
rice, macaroni, candied yams, celery,
pickle and olives were served hot
coffee with whipped cream, ambrosia
with several kinds of cake we're serv-
ed. The Trenton ladies abundantly
sustained their reputation as very
charming hostesses.

At the last meeting of the Post on
January 4th it was unanimously de-
cided that each eX-service man could
and would invite one or more ladies
as he wished or thought best in his
particular case.
The Wall Theatre has offered to
entertain those present at the dinner
with a special performance FREE
OF CHARGE after the dinner is
over.
Mr. Norris has already sold good
many tickets, but it is imperative
for him to know just how many are
going to attend. Therefore all who
anticipate being present will please
let Mr.. Norris know at once and make
the necessary commercial arrange
mants with him.
Don't forget the hour, 7:3O p. M,
nor the date, January 21, nor the
year, 1921.

Don't Forget the Farmers
Meeting.

Mr.. Farmer:
If we use in South Carolina 1,100-
900 tons of fertilizer and produce
1 1,250,O00 bales of cotton, which can
not be sold for cost of production, is
it sound financing for banks to re-
fuse credits for production of more
cotton in 1921? If we bought $111,-
100000 worth of food and food
stuffs in South Carolina last year and
sent that amount of money out of
the State to pay for that which we
should produce at home, is it sensi-
BILE to do the same thing over in
1921?
You can't have a Cotton Associa-
tion by having constitution and by
laws and electing officers. An effec-
tive organization is made up of men
who will adopt and live up to a plan.
If you ask your neighbor to reduce
cotton acreage and pledge himself
to plant less cotton while you, Mr..
Farmer, remain outside of the Or
ganization, to do as you please; you
have your privilege, and you kill the
concerted action of the campaign.
The South, producing all of her
food and food stuffs and 100000
bales of cotton, would in five years
be the richest agricultural section of
the country. Today she is the poor
est.
Is is worth your while to form an
organization whose purpose is to bet
ter conditions or not? If so, meet at
the Court House IL o'clock Saturday,
January Is, 1921.

ASPARAGUS GROWERS.
CONTINUED from Page one.)

North American Fruit Exchange,
with head office in New York and ITO
branch Offices scattered over the
country. The contract for 1921 will
be made probably with the same
company by the board of directors.
The following gentlemen were elect
ed to, serve as directors for the en-
suing year: w. B. Owens and j. L.
: Shuler of Williston; DR.. Ashill and
Frank Carwile of Ridge Spring; B.
R. Tillman and D. R. Day, of STren-
ton; S. B. Hair and C. L. Williams
of Elko.
At the conclusion of the round ta-
BILE discussion the following officers
were elected: ]. Broadus Knight of
Greenville, president; DR.. W. C..
Smith of Williston, vice-president and
j. W. Jones of Ridge Spring, secre-
tary and treasurer.
The writer was deeply impressed
with this splendid body of business
men who were far above the average
of our citizenship in intelligence.
None of them were given to lengthy
speaking, possessing rather the facul-
ty of going to the heart and core of
subject in a few words. The South
Carolina Asparagus Growers Asso-
citation furnishes a fine object lesson
in the advantage to be gained
through organization and co-opera-
tion on the part of the farmers. Six
years ago before the association was
organized, the individual growers
would ship their product to markets
here and there over the North, with
out any knowledge or information as
to marketing conditions, receiving
absolutely without redress of any
kind not infrequently unfavorable re-
turns. Now under organization their
interests are pooled and they ship
their product to central point, from
which it is shipped by the selling
agents to the markets where demand
is strongest, which not only assures
top-notch price but prevents the
congesting of any particular market.
For instance, if Philadelphia is well
supplied with asparagus this week,
no further shipment will be made to
that market until the supply is ex-
hausted, all other shipments for the
time being diverted to points where
the demand is strong and the supply
limited. The individual seller would
not be in possession of information

God Give Us Men.

GOQ give us uleH W TulS,
And not designing masters,
Who use us for a stepping stool
And then make relentless taskers.
Give us men who will venture forth
Men who are not afraid
To praise the thrifty, scorn the sloth
And call spade spade.
Give US men with spirit eyes
That see, through the dingy cover
Of the human life's day book
And there some bright gem to spy.
Give US men who can come back
From the path of wickedness they
have trod,
Who once on the right road will
stick to the track
That leads to Thee, O God!
Give us men to preach Thy word,
Solid, rock-ribbed and daring;
That will speak the truth Thou
would have heard
Of Thy wrath that will not be SPAR
ing.
God give us men by the score,
Brave fellows that fear only Thee;
Who'd give their very life and more
To right the wrong they see."
