ADVERTISING

A good example of the methods OF
those who uphold the liquor interests
comes from Stanstead where an Off
Ger who had been trying to do his
duty received black hand letter
which read in part as follows: "This
is only notice for your own good
We had a meeting and decided to
shoot you on the street. 1t will be
before long. I'll shoot you in the
back. So I am sorry but I got to do
it." The liquor business is an out
law business today and those who as
sociate with the traffic are outlaws
and apparently desperate men. A
threat to shoot an officer, and to
shoot him in the back, is characteris-
tic of the worst kind of outlaw.

Let Him Alone.

(Randolph Herald and News)
1t is reported that the Vermont Bar
association will soon have to consider
a report from a committee recon-
mending to the supreme court the
disbarment from practice Of former
Governor Horace F. Graham on ac-
count of his malfeasance in office Mr..
Graham has appeared in court as
counsel few times during the past
year. Some of his fellow attorneys
apparently fear the communicating
effects of his association or for other
reasons want to visit the several
professional punishment possible up
on him. 1t is a question for the
court to determine, of course, but
people will have their own opinion
notwithstanding. Ours is that Ora
ham ought to be let alone.

A Neglected Mountain in Vermont
(Barre Times)

Jay peak in the northern part of
Vermont gets but scant attention
from the public in comparison with
Mansfield, Cancels Hump and per-
haps Killington; but we have the in
formation from the Barton Monitor
that the view from the summit OF
jay is most impressive and beautiful.
The mountain is fourth highest in the
state, being 4,O18 feet above sea level,
and so formed that one is able to
stand on the pinnacle and, merely by
swinging the body, to take IN the
view on all sides. One can see Lake
Champlain and the Adirondacks on
the west, the White mountains on the
east, the ST. Lawrence river and Lake
Memphremagog on the north and "a
panorama of the Green mountains ex-
ceptionally charming" to the south
while towns to the number OF dozen
and lakes and ponds a score in num-
Der can be picked out. All this seems
interesting and serves as lure 1o1
some future excursion. However, the
Barton contemporary warns that the
climb up the mountain is mot a ten
derfoot trip" as automobiles have te
be left a mile from the foot of the
| mountain and it is two miles up the
| side of the mountain. This warning
will only serve as an incentive to the
| more hardy. Prepare to see Jay.

Some of the Reasons
Why We Say, Buy in
November and Pay
January First

Eleven years ago when we inaugu-
rated this system as an innovation IN
Philadelphia, we saw many distinct ad-
vantages to the public and to the Store.
The congestion of Holiday buying
between December 1st and oath placed
an almost superhuman task on our or
ganization-a test of endurance for even
the best trained and most loyal employees.
Up to that time the practice of keep
ing open in the evening before Christ
mas had long been in operation in this
city. We were always opposed to this
and stood resolutely against it, until it
was abolished by all large stores.
Even though our employees did not
have the added burden of these excess
sively long hours, there was still far
too much overtime required because of
the immense amount of work to be done
in so short time.
With the BUY IN NOVEMBER, PAY IN
JANUARY Campaign, this Immediately began
to change. The volume of November business
increased; the load was more evenly dlstrlb-
uted; the work was better done; fewer mis-
takes were made, and where an error did occur
there was more opportunity to correct it. We
were distinctly benefited from an operating

We hear :: a good l,i5d deal these days

We hear a good deal these days
about hard times and the boil weev.l
and the scarcity of money and no one
able to pay his debts, and yet there
seems to us to be very little evidence
of the practice of economy: Eve
the report from Washington that
starvation is staring the people in the
face does not. have any effect on the
extravaganza that one sees on every
side. Well, may be it is not as bad a'
it has been pictured. We do not be-
lieve there is any immediate dange-
of suffering from the lack of the ne"-
essities of life in this section Of th2
country, but it is a time when the
people should practice a rigid econ
omy. We could cut out great many
things in our habits of living that
would help very materially in gettir3
the country back to proper econom-
ic. basis, but there is very little evt'
denee of any movement along that
direction.
We would not take away from ary
ore little pleasure, but the people
as whole have not yet awakened tc
the real condition which faces the
country at this time. Settlement d
must come some tine, and the tine i:
not near so far away as it has been

Friday, August 5, 1921.

That it is necessary in the course
of human events for the people OF
Newberry to select some one to take
the place made vacant in the leglsla-
ture by the death of Mr.. Geo. S.
Mower, we hope that the selection
may be of some one who is entirely
competent and we'll fitted for the du-
ties of legislator, and who will be
able to represent the people of New
berry county. 1t is true that there
are many very good men, and many
able men, who are not fitted for the
position of a legislator, and that may
be said with no sort of reflection upon
them as men and citizens. In this
election the women will have a right
to- vote, and in fact the position IS
open to the women if any of the
should aspire to such position. But
what we desire to see is some one who
is fitted to the job and one who will
represent Newberry with credit to
himself and the people of this county.

The corner of Caldwell and Friend
streets is very dangerous one and
it has always seemed to US that 1t IS
me corner where there should be
stop sign for automobiles. And now
that both streets are paved it IS much
more dangerous, and sometimes when
we see car coming down Friend
street at full speed sounding his gong
at full pitch and not slowing up In the
least, we wonder what would happen
if a car coming around from Nam
street down Caldwell at the same
speed at the same time even though
it was sounding the gong IN hlgn
pitch. Neither could see the other
until the corner was passed. Each
fellow would argue of course that ne
was sounding his gong, and ne thinks
we suppose that the other fellow
should heed his sound. A collision is
sure to happen here some time soon.
It cannot be avoided.
And we still continue to wonder
what good there is in stopping at the
stop signs after you have crossed the
street or even driven out into the.
middle of the street.
It would be a great help in both
these things if every driver of car
would observe the simple regulate n
of always driving to the right, but
that regulation is rarely observed. -

the past year by Miss Monts as prin-
cipal, and she had a fine closlnl; ex-
ercise and a good school the past
year. Then away back yonder not so
long ago when DR.. Cromer was fist
elected president of Newberry col
lege, I went with him to reunion
at a church somewhere in this neigh
borhood, and for long time l was
under the impression that Delmar
was the place, but l have been told
by people who know that that reunion
was down on the Lexington side, but
for, the moment | do not recall the
name of the church. recall that DR..
Cromer and / went by rail around by
Columbia the day before, and spent
the night in Columbia and then went
over to Lewiedale and had breakfast
with Captain D. j. Griffith, and that
Captain Griffith let US have horse
and buggy and we drove out to this
pla c, and when we got there he and
1 were the only Newberry college
folk present who were expected to
have part in the program, and so
told him that l would occupy the
morning hour if he would the after
noon hour, and that is the way we
arranged it. If l mistake not that
program called for a speech from
Judge Ramage, or may be he was not
yet old enough to take part, but any
way I dc know that Brooks Wingard
was expected to be there, and one
or two of the alumni who were
preachers, but for some reason or 9th
er they did not come, but DR.. Cromer
and i had a a,fne reunion meeting at
that time and q great dinner under
the spreading oaks at the church
where the meeting was held. Aac
then we drove lack and spent the
night with Captain Griffith. That was
before the days of automobiles and.
flying machines and we did not get
about; quite so fast, but we got there
just the same, and l somehow believe
that we enjoyed il, the more, nos the
going possibly, but the. entertainment
after. we got where we were going.
Az Delmar on Friday several made
remarks on the number of bugg;ei
that were seen on the grounds, an
yet the great majority of that larg:
crowd travelled in automobiles.
