Junior c. E. Meeting

We will make another effort to get
cur Juniors together for a business
meeting Sunday, May 2lst, having
failed for two Sundays to get enough

matter and unless they do come to our
aid we cannot hope to have the desired
results.
We are urgently requested to attend
the district convention meeting at
Woodruff the fourth of June and un-
less the parents see that their chill
dren get there through the country
on Sunday, we will be unable to take
part in the exercises.
Our members have been assigned
their part and am sure they could
acquit themselves creditably If we can
arrange to attend. We would like to
hear from some one as soon as posi-
BILE as we will have to make our plans
at leas. one week before.
Yours in His service,

Green Street Revival

The service last night at Green
Street Methodist church was perhaps
one of the greatest ever held in Union.
1t is seldom one sees a greater. There
were between 70 and 100 people at the
altar and between 60 and 70 profess
sions of religion with number of
additions to the church. The seekers
included, strong men and women of
middle life, boys and girls, and even
a grayheaded man. Very deep inter-
est and conviction was on the peo-
pie. Evangelist Hobbs returned yes
terday afternoon and preached last
night. His subject was, "Almost thou
persuadest me to be Christian" He
showed what a Christian is not; what
a Christian is; gave a number of rea-
sons why one should be Christian;
told why many are not; explained
how to become one, and urged the peo-
pie to become one now. 1t was a
quiet calm service but deep conviction
was pent up under the calm and the
great deep of mems souls was stirred
God was there and it was a time of
thought and decision. When the altar
call was given people would stand
think and decide and come forward
with the aid of personal invitation and
some without it. Mr.. Hobbs announced
that he plans to remain over till Tues
day night, closing out at that time
Service is announced for Saturday
night Sunday morning, Sunday night
and Monday and Tuesday nights. On
Sunday afternoon at 2:30 p. m. Mr.
Hobbs will speak to men and boys over
IL years of age. 1t is hoped that a
large crowd of men and boys will be
present to avail themselves Of this op.
portunity to hear the message. Large
crowds were present at both Whitmire
and Pacolet Mills. Let the men anC
boys of Union do the same and not fall
behind these places. Friends, come
to all these services and crowd the
house at every service.

BANDITS HIDING
IN MISSOURI

Springfield, Mo-, May 10 (By the
Associated Press) = Hiding by day
and travelling by night, pursued by
Ozark woodsmen. .militiamen and
peace officers, three Of the five BAN
dts who Monday took $2O,5oO from
Q bank messenger here have been
making their way north all week.
Today Sheriff T. ]. Harris reported
by telephone that the three men are
believed to; be near Bagnell in Miller
county. rs miles northeast of here.
They were seen at dawn, the sheriff
said.
But the bandits saw their pursuers
almost as quickly as they were seen
and were back among the hills along
the Usage river where Jesse James
and his companions of a generation
ago were wont to take refuge, and
in spite Of motor cars and airplanes
pressed into service, much of this
sfoothill country is as inaccessible as
1t was in the days of Jesse James.
High hills, thick woods, dense brush
shut off pursuit and furnish cover.
Five hundred dollars in silver was
picked up by the pursuers a few
hours after the robbery. 1t was too
heavy and had been abandoned. A
stolen motor car went fat and was
abandoned.
Time and again the bandits have
been reported to be surrounded and
have slipped away; more than once
they have been reported clear of pur-
suit but the untiring posse has pick
ed up the trail again.
Two of the bandits, believed to
have gone west from here, are ad-
mitted to have escaped. For the
three the hunt goes on,

POLAND OWES
MUCH MONEY

Warsaw, April 26.-Sixty-fiv per
cent of Poland's national debt is owed
to the United States, according to the
first budget of the new republic. The
Polish debt to America totals S183.-
100000. In 1921, foreign debts to the
amount of 7,O0O,OOO,OOO marks were
repaid.
Although the new budget of Poland
like that of every other country in
Europe, shows deficit, it reveals
also a state of revenue covering 80
per cent of the expenditures as
against 80 per cent in 1921 and only
10 per cent in 1920.
The local press predicts fair pros
rect of budget balance during the
current year and if this is accomplish
ed state bank will be established
and new national currency issued
70 replace the present artificial cur
rency wished onto the country during
the German occupation.
Two ministries of the government
are already without deficit, those of
trade and commerce and agriculture,
the latter running up a profit in 1921
of 10000, 100000 marks.
Poland's 1922 budget is popularity
called "peace budget" only 19 per
cent of its total being allotted to mill
tary ;penditure, the rapid demobili-
zatioh of the Polish forces reducing
this item to one of the lowest army
budgets in Europe.

SUMTER CITIZEN
TAKES OWN LIFE

Sumter, May 19.-William w. Dut-
ton, 60 years old, took his own life
at his residence on Bradford street
at 5 o'clock this morning. The indi
cations that it was premeditated sui
eide were so clear no. inquest was
held. 1t was stated that this was the
third attempt Mr.. Dutton has made to
take his life. Once he tried to cut
his throat, but was prevented by the
arrival of neighbors. Another time
he took poison, but immediate medi-
cal aid saved his life.
The trouble seems to have been
caused by his health which had been
poor for some time and for several
months he had been confined to his
bed, being deprived of the use of his
legs. Early this morning he managed
to find gun. although his family
thought it securely hidden from him,
and crawled into the dining room.
Here he placed this single barreled
shotgun with its butt against the
wall, then putting the muzzle of the
gun directly against his left side, he
pushed the trigger by means of h
stick. The body was found by Mrs.
Dutton, who was awakened by the
noise of the discharge. A doctor,
hastily summoned, said death was
instantaneous, the entire load of the
ggun taking effect in his body.
For 18 years he had kept a little
store on the Green Swamp road, just
across the first railroad crossing. He
is survived by his wife, two daugh-

Report on Postal
Improvement Week

After keeping a careful record of
mistakes made from May lst to May
9th we find that three -fourths Of til,
mistakes are caused by improperly ad-
dressed letters and packages. Because
of this continued carelessness thou
sands of letters go to the dead letter
Office every year. To properly address
a letter the name and street address
should be legibly written in the light
corner Of the envelope, and the return
address in the upper left hand cor
ner. 1t is not only necessary that the
address be complete and accurate but
arranged properly on the envelope.
We had suggestions from some of our
patrons, and as far as practicable we
want to put them into effect. We want
the hearty cooperation of every pa,
tron, rural and city, of this office and
we want your complaint as well, so we
may be able to correct any mistakes.
This government of ours is wonder
full and especially the postal service
when we consider tn number of peo-
pie that handle your letters before you
get them one ought to appreciate the
postman, the government, the railroad
the clerks in the postoffice and every.
thing connected with letter.
Rain, cold, snow or wind your letter
comes to you, if the postman's fingers
are tingling with cold, or wet with
rain, burning with heat, you get YOU
message of joy or sadness and the
postman goes on his way.
