in, the company could pay off al
debts and have a nice surplus. The
present income would pay all ex-
penses and afford q little profit.
Then as the volume of business in
creased the profits would increase.
The stock which is being offered is
7 per cent. cumulative preferred.
Seven men already have agreed to
take s1O0 each provided that the
necessary amount can be raised.
Probably some Of these men will
take more since the proposition mas
received the Endorsement OF the
chamber of commerce.
Six leading men Of the town are
on committees to have charge of the
stock selling campaign: C. j. Purcell,
James N. Mclaughlin and NJ. G.
Sheppard representing the stockhold-
ers, while James W. Johnson, c. T.
Summer and T. K. Johnstone repre-
sent the chamber of commerce.
An annual meeting Of the stock
holders Will be held on January %,
at s o'clock, to elect an advisory
board and transact other business
Those who subscribe to stock within
the next few days will have chance
to vote at this meeting.
It certainly would be a blot upon
the good name CT Newberry if shs
should permit necessary industry
such as this laundry to go broke
merely for want Of enough pucic
spirited citizens to buy $500 worth
of stock. We want more new indus,

prove it is to keep the ones we no"

BETTER LAUNDRY
FOR NEWBERRY
Chamber Of Commerce Endorses Sale
Of stock-Committee Appointed
to Assist This Industry.

A committee of stockholders OF
the Sanitary laundry appeared at the
meeting of the chamber Of commerce
directors ON Tuesday evening to ask
the chambers assistance N selling
enough stock to provide funds to In.
ish paying for the machinery in the
laundry. Several Of the creditors
are pressing for payments on their
notes, and the management feared
that unless some. money could be
raised at once the laundry might De
seriously handicapped.
The steps taken, at the chamber Oh
commerce meeting will save this
Er,endidj industry, for Newbecry If
the people will rally to its support.
= The authorized capital stock OF
this company is $4,000, but only
$1,000 of this amount has been sold.
It was the plan of the management
to sell the balance, amounting to-
$500, after the plant had gotten
into operation. Because Of the imam
cial crisis, however, no active cam
paign has been launched until now
to sell the stock.
At the present time the laundry
has an income more than sufficient
to pay operating expenses, IN spite
of the fact that the people are not
giving it enough work to do. Mr.
Sheppard says they could do twice
as much work as, they are now get
ting. Doubling the work would not
increase expenses materially. II
would greatly increase the income
however, and at the same time enable
the management to decrease prices
for service. Already the patrons OF
the laundry are gettin their work
done considerably cheaper than they
have been accustomed to. Mr.. +. N,
Martin says this laundry is going to
save him s1OO this year, and Mr.. O..
J. Purcell says it is saving him three
dollars a week, or $3.50 a year
The amount of notes outstanding
on machinery is $4,000. Also there
are other bills of less pressing ma
ture to the extent Of about $4,000.

Wright, "What has Rotary done for
.you?" This little ''experience meet
ing" proved to be a most enjoyable
feature, as each Rotarian bore testi-
mony to the worth Of rotary.
Much merri,nent was created by
the reading Of three love letters,
which were said to have been writ
ten during 1920 to Rotarians Zach
Wright, Harry Dominick and Bob
Mayes, the three bachelors of the
club. In some manner, which is as
yet unexplained, these epistles fell
into the hands of Rotarians George

these Rotarians with all the feeling
that they were able to summon. The
three bachelors, like tie little boy The

Senator Christensen has introduc-
ed S resolution in the senate to be-
gin night sessions and to open the
daily sessions earlier than usual at
the beginning Of the legislature in
order to conserve time and thus cut
down expense, and to be able to ad-
journ decently and without holding
an all night session at the end and
then adjourn on Sunday morning.
It IS all right, but the start is not
anspicions, and is along the same old
lines. He points out that as mat
ter Of fact the recesses and the shors
hours of the daily sessions of the
Legislature showed that the body did
not do much in the early stages Of
the session but meet and adjourn and
take recesses. That may have been
true and it will abe true again. There
as not much probability of shortening
the session. and really there is rot
great deal to be saved by shorten
ing the session, except the little over
head charges which do not amount to
great deal. The pay of the men,
bers is fixed at certain amount and
this win be paid whether the session
be long or short. The main thing to
,be accomplished by getting down ic.
work at the beginning would be to
have the work properly done and to
avoid confusion and mistakes in the
rush es the closing days, and, to ad-
journ orderly and decently, and that
is a great deal. But already the
weekend adjournments have COM
menced and will probably continue.
AS a matter Of fact there is toe
much legislation at each session ane
tod many changes in the laws, and
really too many laws, and a good
thing to Go issto cut out all useless
legislation and take. up at the begin
ming the really important matters
Sand give them the proper attention
and get through with the job.
