Harmony School Closes.

Very interesting exercises were
held in the large auditorium of the
Harmony school building last Thurs
night, the occasion marking the clos
ing of the present session. The pro-
gram was well arranged and carried
out in every detail in a highly cred
table manner. A picnic was given for
the school Friday and a spirited game
of baseball was a pleasing feature
of the day. Prof. G. F. Long has clos.
ed another year of faithful service
as principal of the Harmony school,
the patrons and pupils having been
extremely fortunate in being able to
secure him year after year for such
a long time. ,

The Money Question.

Some people do not understand
the money question. You will hear
men complaining of the hard times
these days, saying that it is hard to
make the two ends meet.
But it was only a year ago that
we had plenty of money in this coun-
try, and then they complained too.
Their complaint then was that they
had plenty of money, but it would
"not go anywhere" Men who are
now working for two and a half or
three dollars day, then worked for
seven and eight dollars per day.
They spent more while they made
more, but were they better off than
they are today?
The truth is that it is not how
much, nor how little money man
makes, out the use Of it that counts.
The man who saves a little of his
daily earnings whether he works for
low wages or high wages is the man
who is not in want, and who does
not go about the streets complaining
always of hard times. He prepares for
hard times.
The man who having the ability to
work in good times who either fails
to work and make the most of the
opportunities which come to him, or
who working fails to save little of
his earnings for the rainy day will
never understand the money ques-
ton. 1t was not made for him to un-
derstand.-Abbeville Press and Ban
ner.

New Uses For Rubber.

Your business man, usually alive
to opportunity, sometimes misses one.
Take the matter Of rubber heels.
Hardly anyone can plead ignorance
of the fact that leather heels "cause
jar" while rubber heels "absorb the
shock" and Conserve nervous en-
ergy." That's conceded. But why halt
with heels? Are nerves Jared in no
other way? Many and many a man
gets up and sits down again, fifty
times daily, on a hard Office chair. Is
this not harmful to his spinal col
umn, to vital nerve centers?Of
course. Then why not rubber seats
for trousers? Then there is the mat
ter of resting ones elbows on table,
or lunch counter while eating. Inex-
cusable habit, but millions do it. Two
very small pads would absorb the
shock, and by contributing to COM
fort at meal time, aid digestion. For
emergency nightwear, live rubber
shins would cheat the demon rocking
chair of its victim. And back again
to daylight, what a sale there would
be for rubber shoulder blades, to be
slipped into place when a safe is be-
ing lowered so the wearer may lean
against neighboring building and
look upward without fatigue!-Les-
lies Weekly.

Those who had the foresight to
purchase seacoast cabbage plants
early last fall and in mid-winter are
now enjoying pot-liquor in great
abundance.
The roads are good and gasoline is
some cheaper than it was, so crank
your Ford or auto and come in to
the revival meetings that are being
held. You will find the services in
spring and helpful.
Pay more and more attention to
the vegetable garden to the end that
the year-round, in midsummer as
well as in early spring, it afford
something for the table. A good gar
den is great help to the family both
physically and financially.
Here and there additional touches
are being made to the Dixie High
way hotel that make it more and
more like city hostelry. Within the
past week linoleum has been laid up
on the lobby floor and upon the hall
floors on the second and third
stories.
Interest is daily growing in the re-
vival services. The meeting seems to
have gripped the community from the
very outset. All of the stores and
other places of business in Edgefeld
have agreed to close for one hour
for the meeting-from eleven to
twelve o'clock.
Mr.. H. S. jenkins makes an excel

direction being strong arm OF

vices, mornings at II and evenings at

Mr.. jenkins. once you will want to
hear them again.
Will there be cotton grader at
Edgefeld or not next fall? That is
question which must soon be decided,
and we trust that it will be decided in
the affirmative. After taking an ad-
vance step our people should not ret
rograde. Let's keep abreast of the
most progressive markets.
Messrs. Yonce & Mooney published
business local in the last issue of
The Advertiser which referred to the
price of gasoline as being at %
cents. These figures should have been
26 cents instead of %. Read the ad-
vertisement in this issue and you will
see it in it's corrected form.
1t should not be necessary after
having been published so many times,
but let US say again that no ccmmu-
nication should be sent to a news
paper for publication without either
being signed or accompanied by the
name of the writer. The name will
not be published, if such request be
made, but the editor must know who
wrote the article.

Governor Urges
License Fee On
Jitney Buses

Particular emphasis is placed
by Governor Olcott in a letter to
his committee on highway legisla-
tion, on the need for a license fee
for auto stages, jitney busses,
trucks and other motor vehicles
operating for profit on roads CON
structed for them by the state SO
that they would "pay a fair share
toward the cost OF the mainte-
nance of those roads"
With the letter which is direct
cd to the committee In care of
John B, Yeon. Portland, is en-
closed copy of the bill enacted
BY the 1891 session for the regula-
hon OF these motor vehicles and
which the governor vetoed, to-
gether with copy of his veto mes
sage. This is sent In order that
the committee delegated to the
task Of framing a new bill might
be advised as to the governor IS OBJ
jections to the former bill and
profit thereby.
Principal among these ob;ec-
Hons was the absence of any pro-
vision for revenue "to assist In up-
building and maintaining the
highways"
Another objection was based
upon the arbitrary power con-
fesred upon the public service
commission which would have
been granted the right to refuse
OF grant licenses under the act
with or without hearing.n
The bill would make possible
and in fact would practically make
sertain. the building up OF series
81 exclusive franchises over the
lublic highways Of the state" the
Ioyernor declared in his vete
aessase.
The bill would. in short. he de-
Jared, open the way for the crea-
on OF . monopoly and would

sss IN the interest Of a favored
w.
