Rikard, a former Newberry boy making good in Atlanta, sends in his renewal to The Herald and News, cash accompanied by the remarks that "Should wp miss the naner for a single issue. the whole 'bunch of us,' (wife and kids) feel that a letter from hom?3 has been misplaced in the mail. I myself read every line in the paper every edition."' The Laurens papers of this week contain notices of a county educational rally to be opened in that city Saturday. Newberry will have a part in the meeting, as we see on the program that Col. E. H. Aull, super intendent of education of Xewberrv county, is to be one of the speakers, his subjct being: "What can be done to relieve the situation regarding^ school deficits." Dr. Geo, K.

CANDIDATE McCRAVY FAVORS FARM BLOC Editor Herald and News: In your account of the meeting of the candidates for congress at Newberry last Saturday you state that I indorse Mr. Dominick's position on the farm bloc. I agre<* with Mr. Dominick as to the tariff, but in his sneech he did not refer, as I remern ber, to the farm bloc at all. I have not heard him mention it in the campaign as yet. I did hear him, however, refer to it, in the state Dc>n-.( ocratic convention, at which time, he denounced it as being a Republican high tariff organization. I find him to be entirely wrong about it, because it is a non-partisan organization for the purpose of bringing about legislation for the benefit of the farmers, and is not a unit at all on the question ci xne tariff. Unless Mr. Dominick has changed his views on the subject 1 since I heard him discuss the farm bloc, then I don't agree with him at all. ' 4 I did not expect to 'bring the bonus question into the campaign, butafter Mr. Dominick had devoted 20 minutes of his 40 minute speech in defense of his vote on the bonus bill, and after Mr. Shei'ird had stated his position, I felt it only due the voters of the district that I state my nr.iif-inn nr. it. And I stated at WhiiN mire that my party, the Democratic party, at Ssn Francisco wrote into its platform a plank pledging- for a bonus for all ex-service men, I am loyal to my party and stand by its policies. That the San Francisco platform is the law of the party until repealed by a new platform. I might have said that two million, one hundred thousand ex-service men have already petitioned congross to adjust their compensation. I note that Mr. Dominick as&s whv we have not paid a bonus out of our state treasury to the ex-soldier. It is because I thought nothing surer than that the United States government with all of its billions to let other countries have to bonuc their ex-soldires with, would surely do something for its own soldiers, who saved the world from being overrun . by the Germans. I wonder if Mr. DominicK favors a bonus by our nocr little state and yet opposes it by the great United States government, the richest of all nations upon tne earth. i While we were sending: the boys I to the war we said, "Ask what you will and it will be given thee." But since their return we have offered "A stone for ?. loaf, and a serpent for a fish." I thank you very much if you will be kind enough to publish the above, Very sincerely yours, Ed. P. McCravy, Candidate for Congress. The Enrollment Here Ward 1 ...! ' 2GG Ward 2 439 Ward 2, Club 1 253 Ward 3, Club 2 255 Ward 4 22S Ward 5 325 1,766 Oakland 141 Two Years Ago.

' i < , The faculty of the Newberry college summer school, several other invitd guests, the Newberry Rotary club, an elegant luncheon served a la Kullcc-k, and an attractive program: Result?One of the finest meetings that has ever come the way of the local Rotarians! The meeting was held in the grill room of the New berry hotel on Tuesday at l:3U o'clock, and fcr the hour and a quarter allotted there was something doing all the time, with Rotarian-Prer;ident Haskell Kibler pulling th-:^ strings. Beautiful favors, bearing the Rotary emblem. in colors, were presented to the Rotes' and guests The tables were decorated with pot plants and cut flowers, which were arranged only as Rotarian Hal Kohn can do it. An innovation at this meeting was the flag salute, which was done while "America" was being sung bj the assemblage. The American flag: which stood at the rear of the prcswas raised as the Rotariam and guests stood at attention anc sang* "America," th*?3 feature beins very impressive. This feature wil be a regular part of the club's program in the future. After thanks had been returnee by Rotarian Earle Babb, original limericks were recited by Rotariar Bill Wallace, the premier "limerick er" of tne Newberry Rotary club and Prof. Gilbert P. Voigt, of th< summer r.chbol faculty, whose pro duction places him in the front rani of limerick artists. It will be seer that the limericks, which follow were very apropos?and it is need less to designate which was writtei by Rotarian Wallace and which b\ Prof. Voigt, guest: We're not capitalists, statesmen, o: stars, We don't ride in the higher pricec ears, But we could not hope to fiijd A welcome more kind Were we iust now landed from Mars There's i: college professor name< Jim; He does everything with a vim. lie uirecis uie summer scjioui According to rule, And net according to whim. There is no telling how the secre tiry, Hal Kohn, is going to call th< roll of the club. Sometimes he call the names of the members, at othe: tirr.es he calls it by vocations. A Tuesday's luncheon he called the tel epnone numbers of the members and actually some of the members di( not know when to respond! Now, th< Rotes are wondering just what meth od will be employed by the ener^et ic secretary at the next meeting, bu the likelihood is that the member will be called upon to respond to th roll call by standing on their heads The address of welcome .was de ; iivered by Rotarian Zach Wright? and it is needless to say that th guests felt perfectly "at home" afte the warm wore1-! of welcome of thi Rote had been spoken. The response was made by Dr. W. K. Gotwald o: ' i r \ i_ u ~ M , tnc summer scnoui latuaj who, m < few well chosen words, expressed th appreciation of the faculty and oth or guests of the Rothrians' hospital ity. "My Summer School IJrote^es' was the subject assigned to Rotariai Sid Derrick, and he proceeded, ii his inimitably-jocular manner, to in troduce the members of the faculty In the most serious moments of thi Rote-*: talk, he credited a iarg iv.ensure of the success of the sum mer school to Rotarian Jim Kinard director of the school, who has bee: indefatigable in his efforts to mak this second year of the school a pro nounced success. The fact that th membership h :*.: ? increased fror eighty last year to one hundred anfifty t]ys session is evidence enoug that Rotarian Kmard's eiiorts nav bei;j; crowned with the success fo which he has striven. This state ment can be made without in th least detracting from the work o the very iibie faculty which he ha associated with him. Rotarian Dei rick's talk was greatly enjoyed, for be it known, this Rotarian alway ''"says a mouthful" when he gets up < to speak. ; I Mrs. J. D.'Quattlebaum of the fa- ] culty then made a talk in her u^ual I happy manner on "Making Foot ' rnnts." iransiorming me notari-11 sns into a bunch of boys. Mrs. Quat- ' I tlebaum proceeded to tell "the chil- !; dren" a nursery story with a moral, I ' and to say that the "kiddies" enjoy- ' | : ' ed it is expressing the fact very :! mildly, indeed. Mrs. Quattlebaum r ' has sncken before the Roturian.5 beJ fore, consequently they all knew that 1 a treat was in store for them. True to expectations, the treat was there ?and the Rotarian-kiddies regretted that she did not tell another "story." "Random Recollections of a Former College President/ by Rota'rian i*en Lromer, gave tnat note a nne ' opportunity to make a few witty ' thrusts at the college professors present, and this he did to a "queen's taste." Rctarian Cromer is always at h:s best, but he is. perhaps, more so at a Rotary luncheon. His talk at Tuesday's luncheon was no exception, and the Rotes and guests were sorry that he called time on himself and considerably abbreviated h.'s remarks. I. K. Hunt. Esq., brought the greetings of the Kiwanis cluo to the Rotarians, his short talk being greatly enjoyed. ' ' A drawing contest was then en* tcred into, the lucky number being ' held by Mr. Joe Shealy, who is con1 nected with the office of the state superintendent of education, Colum' b!a. In a nicely wrapped package ' which was opened by the winner, was a baseball bat, which was made L the subject of a fine little talk by 1 Mr. Shealy. A book of pcems was presented by ^ the club to each of the lady members of the summer school faculty, Mrs. J. D. Quzittlebaum and Misses Caro, lyn Cromer and Elizabeth Dominick. Vpc luncheon was a most en r ~-w' joyablc occasion and it appeared j that the gpests enjoyed the meeting as much as the Rotariar.h did, and this, to say the least, is goin? some! Last cummer the Rotes had the summer school faculty as their gjests at a luncheon and they got so much en2 joyment from the event that an int vilation wzr, extended again this year. It is safe to predict that this ; wmII be an annual event, for the | notes of Newberry do love "good : company'' and that summer school ' - " 1 ' _.v !_ iU.i. 1 j faculty stands mgn :n uiat, viuas.

C., "July 25, 1922. "Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Wells, "Care of Opera House, "Newberry, S. C. "Mary and I married today her home 1 o'clock. Spend awhile Charleston. Letter following. "Burton." "Mary," now Mrs. Henry Burton Wells, Jr., was Miss Mary Carter of Ruffin, in the lower part of the state. She taught school near her home, and had many friends in Newberry where she visited on occasions. She will be a charming addition to the young social circles of Newberry. When Burton left Newberry last week for a visit "down the country" he gave no hint of the big step he w-s about to take. The engagement was known to some, and was no longer a secret, 'out the marriage was not expected to take place until some time later. Hence the news from Green Pond was somewhat surprising. It spread fast and created a ripple of pleasure throughout the c.ty, as the happy groom is one of the most popular of Newberry's young men and his friends were glad to hear that he had won so lovely a bride. The Herald and News reporter has been knowing Burton * Wells s.nce "that boy was a kid." About ? oar. first acquaintance .witii /iini was when we first caw him and his brother Fuimer down on Scott's creek after mtrskrats. It was a common j sight to see the two boys almost daij ly, early in the morning, wading to ' j their traps; and then and there the reporter "took a liking" to the little Wells boys, which liking has never \\-n nn^l Wo f a wof fr.r "fV-i *? uiiv.u. it v v\j on our way to work. With the same pleasant and agreeable 'dispositions they always exhibited along those times they grew up, and we have yet fto hear the first man, woman or child speak otherwise than pleasantly of them; and now that Burton has just started cut on the marriage journey we want to tell .him this, to hand him this little bouquet. sm EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE COTTON GROWERS ASSOCIATION The executive committee of the Cotton Growers association are urg ed to meet in the court house Saturday, July 29th, at 11 a. m.
