There is a fihing frolic' set for next 'Wednesday on the Wateree riv er. I havd been invited to go but I am not going to risk any weak oints. I don't know what that-mob might do to me away down there. W. E. Stewart and W. W. Ligon both told me the other day that they witnessed a long hard fight between a rabbit and a crow. The crow ft nally won the victory and carried away one of the rabbit's young. Now some who do ngt know the above named gentlemen'may believe this tale.

What we need is a litt'le hustle and a little advertising. So long as people know more about Co-. lubia and Chester than they do about Winnsbpro, just so long will we have to trail them In businesi and progress. Excuse an amateur for making these suggestions, but so long as orists, travelers, salesmen and oth. er drive through our city and ex-. perience the "rough riding" of our main streets, we shall get a certain class of advertising that isn't good for us. Let us arouse ourselves to a civic pride that will put Winnsboro on the map. She looksapretty dilap-. idated as she is. Thislisnot aharsh criticism, but a painful confession.
