Special Corresondence. )

HAYNES, March 1.-The smoker given by Chilkat Tribe No. g, lm- proved Order of Red Men, in A. B. Hall on last Friday evening was a grand success in every way. Three bouts of tin-can fighting, in which the fighters proved themselves adept in the art and kept the house in an uproar of laughter from start to finish.
 Two bouts of boxing, first by the Irish Potato and the Texas Kid, who although but boys, showed consid- erable class and all of the three rounds were fast and furious. The second bout was between the Scotch Twins, also of three rounds. They also put up a good scrap, and show ed considerable class.
 After the amusements were over, bountiful banquet was served and few after-dinner speeches were made, the most notable being by w. B. Stout, c. c. Gray and k. J. Shepard. Story telling and fun filled the rest of the evening.

TO Mexico, it means plenty of expenses, and
how do we pay all those expenses?"

cheerfully. you'll have just enough left to

as he always is. We will take what is left of
your fund, which ought to be about $500 by
that time, and lay it all at those sweet odds.
we therefore clean up something like $50 ,O0O."
At this point Harmony encountered his
first rough shedding, because Omar refused
fatly to have anything to do with the Tia
Juana enterprise. Our leader argued, threat
ened, caJoled and pleaded. 1t took four hours.
AT the end Of that time little Omar moaned

JUDGE JONES APPEALS
FOR COMMUNITY SPIRIT

Nearly two hundred representative
citizens of Newberry city and county
gathered in the new court house on
Tuesday evening to hear Judge Nal
colin L. Jones Of Macon, Ca, talk
about the Importance Of community
spirit in building cities for tomorrow.
This was the first public meeting held
in connection with the campaign and
furnished ample evidence that the
people of this community realize the
need of strong central organization
through which they can work to-
gether for the things that Newberry
needs for future growth and expap-
sion.
Judge Jones began as follows:
eff we would know what commun-
ity spirit is we must catch something
of the ancient tribal spirit clan
spirit Of bygone days. AS the men
of the Scottish clan stood ready to
answer the call of the clan so the men
and the women Of this community
must stand ready to spring into ac-
ton at the call of the community.
Community spirit binds all the indiv-
iduais-weak in themselves-into one
strong band. Loyalty plays big part
in this unity.
'sTo get this spirit we must make
ourselves part of the community.
We must be loyal and willing to work
together and with others for the best
interests of all. A man will fight for
his home because his home is refec-
tion of himself, it embodies his love,
his ideas and ideals and better self
it is the expression of himself and he
is part of it, SO he will fight for it
if necessary; but he will not fight for
his boarding house. If we should get
community spirit We must so become
part of the. community and SO i'm
press ourselves upon the community
that our personality will be reflected
in what the city and county accom-
plish. 1t is not enough to merely live
here and pay taxes-we must give
something of ourselves and our am
ibitions and our very souls. The man
who only lives here is like the part
ner in business who furnishes mon
ey but does no work and is therefore
entitled only to the legal rate Of in
terest.
"Anything that is worth while takes
time, thought and work. Is there a
man in this community who claims
to be an American citizen who is will
ing to sit down and do nothing except
for self? There is such type in
some places but he is getting very un-
popular. I hope there are none in
Newherry:
"To build cities, we must therefore

two-thirds or more do not consent
then the improvements will not be
made.
In short while the council vii
take definite action as to the street:
we think should be paved. The peo
pie owning property abutting on These
streets will be given notice of the
action of council and will be asked to
agree to the improvements eontem
plated. If two-thirds of the owners
agree the paving Of that particular
street will be entered upon as soon
as possible. In case tWo-thirds OF the
owners do not consent, the offer Of
cpnucil will be withdrawn, and then
an offer to pave some other street
will be made.
After all, improvements of then
streets and sidewalks are left to the
peeple. Council cannot-and has no
desire to-force street improvement
upon property owners who do not
care for it. The people themselves
that is two-thirds or more-can foree
the improvements upon their neigh
bors,
Later the people will be informed
as to the time given to pay for their
part of the cost of paving and as to
the interest they will be asked to pay
on the deferred payments. We are
now considering these matters.
Council will sell the paving certlf-
Gates OF borrow money on them. We
may be delayed somewhat as to get
ting money on these certificates be,
cause Of the present financial strain,
but we hope to be able to realize on
these securities by the time the money
is needed.
Many people will not have their
streets paved now, even if all the
property owners along the streets de'
sire It ever so much. We have around
eighty miles Of streets. The funds
we shall have for paving from bonds
and assessments of abutting property
will cover the work on about four
miles Of streets-about one-twentieth
of all our streets. At the time we
voted our bonds we went just to our
legal limitations. Since that time the
law has been changed and the peo-
Pile can vote mese bonds for street
paving when they desire to do so.
Any citizen interested in our paw.
ing, who has suggestion to make,
may address 9 communication tt
council or may come before us at any
meeting. The suggestion may not
be adopted but it will at least be
considered. Council desires to serve
The people and improve the town.
Respectfully,
Eugene S. Blease,
Mayor.

own characters. We must be broad
minded, big hearted, and look upon
life as an opportunity for greater ex-
perience and responsibilty-with
these things comes power and
strength.
"The welfare of this community does
not depend on it's natural resources
but upon the temperament of its peo-
pie. A city is not place but peo-
pie. And it is the temperament of
its people, their will to do and to
work together for the interests of all,
that will make Newberry county
great"
Prof. S. J. Derrick, chairman of
the campaign committee, presided at
the meeting and in making his intro
ductory remarks. said in part:
II am glad to see representatives
of the county present at this meeting.
We want to make the county unit
we all need the help of each other.
The question Of good roads concerns
us all especially. We need more
power as a unit and we need the hab-
it of cooperation-we need solidarity.
The people Of this community have
never failed in their responsibility to
the community at critical times in
the past and they will not fail now,"
Prof. Derrick then introduced Ma

growth is safe and sound. There is

We sometimes do not appreciate the
advantages we do enjoy here. Our

our educational institutions. We are
planning now to extend our paving,

"Our Chamber Of Commerce was
started year ago. But not many
things can be accomplished in year.
It will take time to plan and work out
the future of our city and cohnty.
We, all of US, have our dreams about
