Interest with tho plan of selling grows with the sttldy of tho plan and accomplish ments of tho co-operative selling syp tem. No Argument Against System. There is no sane argument against tho co-operative system of selling farm products. There ls every argu ment for it, chief among these being tho absolute success of co-operative marketing as demonstrated in Cali fornia among fruits and in Oklahoma and Texas with cotton. >A debater nt Georgia State Agricultural Col ^ lego wrote Theodore H. Price, editor * of "Commerce and Finance," of New York, to lind out what arguments could he used against Ibo formation of co-operative marketing associa tions for cotton. Mr. I'rioe answered hy telling the debater that there was but one side to the question, and that ?> was the affirmative side. Ho further f stated: "It is only through co-operation nnd compromiso (lint civilization ls advanced, and those who opp'oso them oppose human progress, I advise you to decline tim urgtt mont."

Bounty Land, April 3.-r-Speclal: Tho weather is at last favorable to farming, and some of our farmers , are planting cotton. A delightful social entertainment of last week was the Christian En- , deavor social held Saturday evening I nt the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Hubbard. Doliclous refreshments were served after various amuse ments were engaged in. Prank L. "Pickett, of Rockingham, N. C., was a guest of his sister, Mrs. W. D. Wright the first of tho week. Mr. and Mrs. 0. "H. Doyle, of An derson, wore week-end guests of tho former's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas per Doyle. Mrs. John Archer,, who has been spending some time in Spartanburg, returned a few days ago to tho home of her sister, Mrs. J. D. Mc.Mahan. John Allen Dendy will begin work this week with the Marett Brothers on the highway. Burt 'QUtisoit, of Clemson, and Jay (Jillison, of Seneca, were recent guests of Mr. and Mrs. Pani Oil li son. Wo are glad 'o report an improve ment in tho condition of ratf?M. J. McDonald, who has been qMte seri ously ill for several days. tyt>r maiiy friends are hoping for heiMirly re covery. Mrs. Allen Stuart ls visiting her children in Pickens. 'Si Tho B.Y.P.U will bo ehtertained in tho home of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Lynch next Friday evening, and the members are looking forward to the occasion with happy anticipations. Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Wilson visited the latter's parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. Y. Norton, near Walhalla, the week end. The "Gypsy Smith Circle" will meet next Friday afternoon with Mrs 'Dean Davis. Jasper Doyle was quito indisposed for several days last week, but is able to be out again. ?Hon. and Mrs. John L. Smith, of Seneca, attended tho closing exer cises of our school Friday. Our school closed a most success ful term last Friday afternoon with quite an interesting program, The exeroises were Jn keeping with the /observance' or Carolina uPay.^flinceA tirirlttrt^ rahv<r fi??'iToW^r^l^o date on which the school closed, and were enjoyed by.quite a number of the community people. Both teach ors and pupils acquitted themselves with remarkable credit. Indeed, the program and Its rendition would re flect honor to an Institution of far greater pr?tentions than old Bounty Land assumes, although Capt. S. K. Dendy, In bis much appreciated talk, made the assertion that the two com munities of Bounty Land and Rich land had turned out moro profes sional men and women than any other section of tho county, and Capt Dendy ought to know, since he is one of three pupils now living who attended tho first school ever taught at Bounty Land, which was In 1852. The other two pupils aro Thomas Handy Stribllng, of dreenwood, and Mrs. Mary Biggerstaff, of Fair Play. This school was taught by the late Col. E. R. Doyle, father of .Mrs. Julia Dovlo Shan kiln. Mr. Dendy, in his remarks, said that the school boy satchels are a great deal heavier now than they wero then, which probably accounts for tho fact that children are not so thoroughly drilled in tho studies which were taught in thoso days, and naming somo of our distinguished "Carolinians, he told tho audience of the great impression made on his mind when ho heard of the death of our groat John C. Calhoun and saw tho old Keowce Courier bordered in black, in unite significance of tho great loss foll at his death. Capt. Dendy gave an interesting account of tho stirring times of '7(1. when (len. Wade Hampton was elect ed, and tho establishment of white supremacy in South Carolina. This wi? both Interesting and instructive to Ibo pupils and visitors present. Mr. Dendy's talk was not first on tbr> program. Wo hope to send tho entire program, including an inspir ing talk by the prineip. i of school, Miss Lalla Rallonger, in which she gave an Interesting compilation of lin' many great forward movements in which South Carolina was fore most, all of which inspired tho audi ence with a feeling of pride in being South Carolinians. Thc welcomo address was modest ly given by little Miss Lue y Both McDonald. Tho program consisted of songs, recitations, readings mid drills. A drill by half dozen small boya, dressod as Revolutionary sol dlors, deserves special mention, and shows the skill and painstaking of tho teacher, Miss Carrie McMah.m. The closing address, by Supt. of Education L. C. Speares, was good. Mr. Speeres' subject was "Future Citizenship.' He stressed tho asser tion that no nation, State or county or community is any bottor than its citizons, and that if ono man in a community goes wrong tho entire community suffors. That difficulties in a school or community aro gen erally the result of misunderstand ing and lack of co-operation. Misses Ballanger and McMahan have accepted the school for another year, and Bounty iLand trustees are to be congratulated on securing tholr services again.

McCollough. It was my privilege to often see Mr. McCollough, as he lay on his bed of suffering at the UnU.od Statos Pub lic Health Service 'Hospital, and al ways 1 carried away tho impression of "tho gentleman unafraid" as I left the pr?sence of his bright smilo nd genial personality. , Kven after the power of speech was denied him and the ability to lake sustenance in the ordinary way gone, and physical strength fast wan ing, tho winsome smile and the warm hand-clasp wore still there. 'Far beyond tho age limit of mili tary service, but because he had the mental training that his country so greatly needed, the physical ability to render it, and a willingness to serve, ho was accepted. Mr. McCollough went to the Mexi can border, thence with the Rainbow Division to Franco, enduring all the hardships of the service, doing faith fully his "bit" to win tho war. After tho armistice another fight s begun, the cons?quences of Gor man gas taken root, and with gmll ?? courage tho arch enemy this in troduces i ; met ami laced bravely to end. Many men are making the samo ?it that Mr. McCollough made at the V. S. I', ll. S. Hospital as bravely and as smiling as he. Fragrant and bonutiful flowers will bring a messago of interest, sym pathy and du tir to their bedsides if they tome. A. (J. Gower. Eduard H. McCollough was well known in Walhalla, where be had spent a number of years ns resident and citizen. For some ten or twelve years he lived hero with his family and that of his venerable falber, who was thou rector of St. John's F.piscopal church, Walhalla. Ile was always genial and a gentle man withal, lie had his faults, but ho was a man, a manly man, who did not stoop to low deeds of any kind. And he had his friends wher ever he went. They wore numbered by his acquaintances. At his passing thoro are many who will feel that friend and gentleman has passed out | from among thom. Mr. McCollough is survived by several brothers and sisters and nu merous olhor relatives, among thom being Mrs. H. H. Legare, of Wal halla, and Miss Ida McCollough, of Great Falls, this Stato, sisters; and Mrs. Geo. M. Ansel, of Walhalla, a niece.
