Dots of Delta

The weather for he past ten days
has been very fine for fall-sown grain
and turnip salad, but I guess real
winter will start now. No one should
rrumble as the fall season has been
SO fine. Very few people have put on
real winter clothes and, believe me,
l am sure glad the fall was 80 mild
and don't care If the winter hours
would be so kind and accommodate me
to the same climate.
How about Christmas? Here it Is
Santa Claus time and ! can't just
imagine what ali I do want, but it is
very clear picture. I can see what
/ am going to get: "A corn cake, per-
sinmon beer, with few sweet pota-
toes sprinkled in for a good measure
and flavor some walnuts and peanuts
to crack. Santa Claus used to be a
great friend Of mine, but he said
crew so mean and bad that he WASN'T
coming to see me any more, so little
girls and boys, you had better be good
children and obey mama and papa and
if you don't he will do you just like
he did me. Say, children, l know
good old lady today who is about &c
years old and she looks for Santa
Claus to come every Christmas. Why
Because she has always been good and
kind to everybody and Santa Claus
never forget her. Children, you had
b. tier begin to talk kind to mama
and papa and lay your arms arouno
their necks and place a few sweet
kisses upon their cheeks and whisper
in their ears just what you want
Santa Claus to bring you and then
they can tell you whether he will
bring it to you. Sometimes Santa
goes to the Christmas trees and leaves
Icfore you can get there, so you
lad better take heed and be good and
kind, so Santa Claus will always re-
member you and if you know Of any
little children that dear old Santa
couldn't come to see you be sure and
60 and tell them how good Santa had
been to you and then you give them
some of your goodies. Remember to
be good children and Santa will come
Christmas.

A GOOD FRIEND.

A good friend stands by you when
in need. Union people tell how Doan's
Kidney Pills have stood the test. Miss
Beatrice Hughes of 103 w. Main St.,
Union, endorsed Doan's years ago and
again confirms the story. Could you
ask for more convincing testimony :?
Miss Hughes gave the following
statement March 4, 1918: 81 had
trouble with my kidneys. My head
eched so sometimes thought it would
split with pain. / had nervous, dizzy
spells and my kidneys didn't act right
ut all. / bought box of Doan's Kid
ney Pills at the Palmetto Drug Co.,
and they relieved me. After / had
taken two boxes Of Doan's / was
cured"
On January 2s, 1922, Miss Hughes
added: "When I used Doan's Kidney
Pills some years ago they gave me
relief from kidney complaint. have
had little use for a kidney medicine
of late and gladly confirm my for
mer statement"

THURSDAY, DECEMBER IA, 1922

We have reached the conclusion
that most of those who are crying
hard times are suffering from imag-
mary, rather than real conditions.
The fear that has gripped the heart
is psychological. This county is in
better condition by far today than 1t
was q year ago. Half crop of cotton
at 25 cents a pound is better than
full crop at 121s cents a pound, for
Il cost less to make it. Food and feed
stuffs have been produced in very
much larger quantities than ever be-
fore. There has been considerable
movement towards diversitication.
Not as much as there will be, but
quite a good advance over what has
been. Business is reasonably good;
it would be vastly better were it not
for the free indulgence in hard time
talk. Our mills are running full time.
There is nothing to be alarmed over
not a real cause for fear and stupid
surrender to imaginary depression.
Union County is today in better con-
dition than ever before in its mis-
tory.
