Suppose we agreed with some
folks in their opinion of us? The
installation of a self-kicking ma
chine would be a cr\ing need,
says an exchange.
If we believed that Chesterfield
is half as good a place to live
as the Advertiser has pictured it
in the last several issues we
would move there and try to
persuade everybody else to go
with us.
Theodore Roosevelt, who was
defeated for president in the last
election and who has been on
an extended expedition in South
America, is back home prcparLing
to go the length and breadth
of the country on a hot air campaign
in the interest of the Pro
gressive party. The big news
papers are putting him on the
front page again.
^
The Monroe Journal still refers
to our county seat as "Chesterfield
courthouse," notwithstand
ing the fact that the Chesterfield
Advertiser is using nearly two
columns a week in telling what
a great town it is. Make it three
columns, Marsh, and compel
them to recognize your town as
something more than a place to
MT hold court.
A The Chesterfield Advertiser
thinks that President Wilson is
^^onc of the strongest men ever pro
HnMced by any nation but thinks
made a mistake when ln^e
H sons for ft ^ HPVfp
V resents the im^^PP^Wemcnt in
V Mexico and tha^Tie sent three
W strong men to > the mediation
f conference in Canada but in the
I same breath a< knowledges that
F Iluerta came into power by questionable
methods. The Advertiser
says, "nevertheless there was the
form of an election and on the
^ face of the returns he had a small
majority for the Presidency."
What better reason did our
president need to refuse to recog
nize Huerta as the rightful ruler
of Mexico?
TM
i ne county commissioners
are coming in for a big; share of
criticism because they bought
, an automobile for the county
L supervisor. The supervisor re
ceives eight hundred dollars a
year with no allowance for
^^Bexpenses. The iaw says he
^H^Bust devote his entire time to
work, and his work requires
traveling over the county.

CHURCH NOTES
Baptist
J. M. Sullivan. I'astor.
There are many things for
which we are grateful, but
among other things we are
thankful that we were permitted
to attend the great Southern
Baptist Convention at Nashville,
Tenn.,?the laigest attendance
and best convention yet. Over
nineteen hundred delegates enI
rolled, and visitors variously estimated
at from two to three
thousand were in attendance.
We felt that it would be selfish
not to tell our people about it.
So last Sunday at Pageland and
Providence we took time to tell
them just a little?and some
have actually had the courage to
say that they enjoyed it very
much.
We were, as we always are,
delighted to be with the Provii
dence church last Sunday afternoon.
These good people are
always anxious to know what is
I being done religiously elsewhere
The "enlistment campaign" is
on. We understand that it started
off well at Dudley last Sun
day, and Pageland Sunday night
Inasmuch as Dr. Langston was
very tired from the heavy work
of the day, Bro. B. S. Funderburg
was pressed into service Sunday
night and gave us a real good
sermon along the line of being
good ourselves and the joy of
finding grace in the hearts and
lives of others.
Dr. Langston had charge of
the services Monday morning
giving us one of the best talks
or lectures on "Christian Litera
turc in the home," we have ever
heard. Monday night was another
good service for us here.
Tuesday Dr. Langston was at
White Plains for all day services.
Bro. Sutton was with us at Pageland
Monday and at Plains Tuesday.
^ Others ar^expeeled^ to ^
rtie free to be in the campaign
and hope to enjoy it with our
friends on our former field.

Ily Rev J. A. Mci?ra\v
Next Sunday we will preach
at Zion in the morning and at
Price's at 1 p. m. We will not
have any services at Prices on
the next first Sunday.

A collection will he taken for

The next Annual Conference
will he held in Sumter, and the
date tor holding the session has
been fixed for Nov. 25. So our
conference year is now just half
gone.
The general conference . hich
is the law making body of the
church and which meets onlv
once in four years has just now
closed its quadrennial session at

To The Voters of Chesterfield
County: i
The State Convention has *
adopted rules which require a '

You can enroll on only onet
club?the one nearest to you .iuj.
your township or club district.
Now, it is important for ever> i;
voter of Chesterfieid county to[

Court House on Monday, \
June 1st, ^to arrange for this.The
books will be there by that

Let every man go and
enroll and see that we have our

After this year people who do
not move do not have to enroll
in the county any more, only
new voters have to Uo so, but
the cities have to enroll anew'

cannot sign his name to the roll
he can make his mark. No
white man is to be denied the
right to vote. See that your
