ents at State Park while Mr.. Wise
went on to Ridgeway for the week
end
Mr.. Harry Vigodsky Of New York
is at his home in Newberry spending
vacation recuperating from spell OF
! illness. We are glad to say that his
looks don't show any signs Of his not
! having recently been in his usual
good state of health.
Mr. Sam McCrackin's dog strayed
away from home and was gone for
several days. He returned without
the collar he had on when he left. He
went back to the country for his lost
or removed collar. He must have
gone for that purpose, because he
came back promptly with the collar
around his neck.
We saw something interesting at
the Newberry Hardware store when
! Mr.. Tom Wells was generating gas
from kerosene. He was demonstrat-
ing it's use for the cooking and heat
ing stove. 1t makes a beautiful blue
and clean blaze and is easily worked.
This new process seems to us to be
capable of revolutionizing the meth
Cd of fuel, and is more convenient
than wood and coal.
NJ. S. Lewis has completed his work
with the Bank of Shelton and assum-

as active vice president.-The State.
/ J. O. Havird, a former Newberry
boy now Of Anderson, was elected Sc
nior sycamore at the grand council OF

fore how these Newberry boys climb.
+ C. B. Martin is mentioned in list
of knight Templars formed at the
convention in Florence this week to
be of party leaving Columbia on

!. the oath.
Mr.. Jno. NJ. Kinard, the we'll
, known banker of Newberry whose fl
nancial activities in the interest OF
farmers and others are taken cogni-
zance of throughout the state, arriv-
ed home Tuesday from Hot Springs,
Ark, after an extended stay at that
famous resort. His many friends are
glad to see his smiling face, like the
silver lining from behind the dark
cloud, beaming over the streets of his
cold home town. for full we'll they
know that if all classes will just ''sit
steady in the boat" and throw no
rocks, Jno. NJ. Kinard will do all he
can to tide them over.
Down Caldwell street, from the
railroad crossing at the Southern
Cotton Oil mill (where Harry Domin-
ick and and Dick. Floyd oficiate for
the welfare of the agricultural por-
ton of the county's population and
where Harry also thinks up his next
"rote" stunts), to the south prong Of
Scott's creek, the city, with the nee
'essary aid of the county chaingang,
is doing the much needed work Of
moving back the sidewalks and widen
ing the street 1t will be a great i'm
'provement when completed. Mayor
Cromer is going forward in the on
ward march of progress. It now looks
like busy times in old Graveltown
with the hands and the telepone men
all at work ''for the good Of the city"
A thoroughly reliable citizen of
Newberry says he saw, while in North
Carolina, wealthy white men on the
chaingang. They were put there be-
cause they had been convicted of vio-
lating the prohibition law. Their
wealth did not keep them off tie gang.
The authorities of North Carolina
have learned that this is the only way
to treat blindtigers and Aootleggers
successfully.
