Mr. Griffin was loo years old. He
was a graduzfre.of Newberry college,1
one of the youngest students to grad- <
uate from this ifeititution, being only
1V years old-, at his graduation. In
his younger manhood days he Was ac-,
tive in bn?jiiess, having held various
positions, ajriong them bead of the
firm of E. .A. Griffin & company,:
Dookkeeper for the Southern Cotton
Oil mill at Charlotte, N. C., head of j
the Jv W. White Lumber business at
McComb, Miss., and cashier of the
late Savings bank in Newber^. Fail-j
ing. health forced Lim to ^^re from j
business. He had been i^tf ill health ,
for a number of years andrspent four :
or five years in Mississippi and two '
or three years in Florida for the ben- |
efit of his health, but all in vain, as he
had, to give up and t2ke to his bed,
where he spent the past four years, j

sad to part with the loved ones,
still those of his devoted relatives j
wh so fondly loved him will have the (
consolation of knowing -that they
have nothing to regret in their tender
and solicitous care of the afflicted one
and that when death came it brought
relief and ended the sad lingering
and wasting away. Eugene Griffin
died as he had lived, ready for the
change to immortality.

'standard warehouse has
: saved farmers thousands
j i
The Standard Warehouse has been
the means of saving the farmers of
| this state nearly a half million dollars
according to Mr. T. B. Stack!
house, the president of the company,
jit takes care of the cotton and the
warehouse receipt, is one of the best
'collaterals that you-can take to the
j bank if you have to hane some money
, on your cotton, and by being able to
do this you are not forced to sell^and
thus depress the market. That is, if
supply and demand have anything to
do with the price, and certainly to
a certain extent it does, bitfcnot to
: the extent to which it should have an
influence on the market.
The Newberry branch of this institution
is in charge of Mr. B. B.
Leitzsey who takes a great interest
and pride in the job. Mr. C. E.
Summer one of the leading business
men and financiers of the city is the
president. ' I
But recently the Newberry branch
has hud a good many improvements
made at the warehouse here, among
which is the erection of a wire fence
around the building and the yard and
making: even more improvements in
the water and sprinkling arrangement
and in having the office painted
and fixed up. >
The warehouse keeps pretty well
:filled all the time, of course the cotton
is coming and going out more or
less all the while. Manager Loitzsey
takes a pride in keeping everything
in good shape so that he may locate
the customer's cotton quickly and all
the time.
If you have joined the marketing
association as you should the receipt
<nay be i
ihe association will lend money on"
it at six per cent which is also a sav-*
ing to the farmer, and- if all vthe cotjton
growers would join the association
and turn the cotton over to it
there is no doubt that a price at a
profit on production could be gotten,
because the association could fix the
price. As we have often remarked,
the farmer is the only business man
who asks what you will give him for
what he has to sell, rather than fix
the price himself and in fixing add a
profit on the cost. No merchant nor
no cotton manufacturing concern
could continue in business by simply
asking the buyer what he would give,
and then take it regardless of the
cost to produce. And yet that has
(been the policy and the plan of doing
business of the farmer all the years
and the wonder is that he managed to
continue to function.
j Join the marketing association and
put your cotton in the warehouse and
j daylight will come to the producer,
i There has been no over production of
| cotton this year and there is not going
to be for several years to come at
, least.

In a Review of the Lemon's Service
Record for 1922 the Legion
Weekly cites the following: as the
most outstanding accomplishments.
Most notable among the legion's
achievements for the disabled th.is
year has been its light for adequate j
hospital accommodations. Thanks to
legion activity, the whole country is ,
fhnrnr.p-J.lv ;i roused to the situation
arid results are certain.
In its efforts to obtain for a million :<
unemployed veterans the legion scor-,:
ed its most notable and far-reaching
victory during the past year. Posts
and the national organization thereby
lent a strong impetus to the return
of prosperity. H
The legion's service census discovered
thousands of veterans who were <
not aware of their privileges and followed
up their cases individually in
a successful effort to get them their i
- !
just due. Hundreds i of volunteer <
* A i ? it:. 1
legion ccnsus-iaKers periormer tnis i
service. N
Cooperation between the legion and
the National Education association!
and school authorities everywhere
has never been more effective than
during the past year. There has been
a remarkable number of Boy Scout
troops adopted by legion posts.
The legion, nationally and locally, <
has done much to dignify the ceremony
of initiating the alien into Amer
ican citizenship, and has maintained
a sympathetic and helpful interest in '
the progress of the newcomer. . j
The VI Article, "Where the Fraud
Cases Stand,'' in the series of articles
on Who Got the Money? by Marquis
James appears in the Weekly of the
13. How far has the government actually
got in the prosecution of war
profiteers? What are the forces that
have stimulated it to action, and what
are the forces trying to forestall action?
Will justice be dune, or will
public interest in war graft die out
and the culprits escape with the boodie
down the alley of forgetfulness? J
These are the questions which Mr. |
James answers in the present article.
You will find it interesting reading.
Any one desiring; to read this series
of articles may secure them at "The
New Book Store."
By the time this is published the
fourth national convention of the
American Legion will he in session.

and declare it the best thing they j
have staged so far. A splendid sup
per was served. ''Buddy" Barnwell
of Florence was on hand and did j
some good talking. A radio concert j
was, also given during the evening, i
The Lake City post has almost dou- j
bled during this year and the interest !
and enthusiasm is increasing under;
the leadership of Post Commander
Feiix T. Wilson. The post is taking
fin active interest in civic affairs.
Legion members at Fort Mill work- j
ing with the auxiliary is planning an 1

Colleton county legion men are arranging
to stage a "Legion Day" at
the Colleton county fair Xov. 23.
Last year the legion men made a
splendid showing and the indications
are that this year will be even better
To raise funds for "Legion Day" at
the fair the post will hold a "fiddlers
convention" at the school auditorium
in Walterboro or. Friday night, November
10. Mr. James K. .Tackles is
post commander at Walterboro.
American Legion auxiliary units in
Spartanburg and Greenville have col
lected jellies and jams lor rnc wounded
veterans at the hospital at Camn '
Sevier. The post and auxiliary at
Greenville have a big job on their,
hands caring for the large number of:
men at the hospital. Other units in
the state should lend assistance when
possible. :
The Charleston post will sponsor a
Boy Scout troop under the su >ervis- j
ion of Mr. J. C. Yow. This is a good
move and should have the backing of
all members. Legion headquarters
will be used as a meeting place for
the hoys.
BUS LINE CONNECTING
COUNTY IS SUGGESTED,
I
Now that Newberry has a cream- j
ery. a laundry ar.d most of the other j
things that go to make a city of pro-j
gress there remain very few other,
things that are absolutely essential'
to the future welfare of the city ex-!
'cept some means of communication I
j between the outlying portions of the ;
county. This problem can best be
(solved by motor bus lines connecting
|Newberry with such points as WhitJmire,
Chappells, Little Mountain,
Prosperity and other sections.
There is now a movement on foot
I
I in this city to organize such a bus
line and already some steps have
been taken towards organization.
Stock subscriptions are being solicited
from the business and professional
men of the city and it is estimated
that it will take ten thousand dollars
to properly operate the company.
This is a very worthy enterprise and
those approached hrive almost without
exception taken kindly to the suggestion
and have subscribed stock in
the corporation.
The organizers state that there is
a possibility that the bus will have a
trailer which will be used to carry
parcels between Newberry and the
points made as well as collect cream
a'.ong the route for the local creamery.
The main object is such a bus
line is to serve the communities in
which it runs and unless passengers
are hauled at a minimum charge and
other service rendered the bus line
will do not for a community what it
should do. The men who are backing
proposed county line are doing
so with a high civic spirit and are
forming this new means of transportation
and communications simply to
put this city in closer touch with the
outlying portions of the county, to
mike Newberry county more of a
'unit. _ _
The proposed line will not be tun'
as a money making proposition, for
as such the fare would be too high.
It is hoped that those who see fit to
take stock will receive a reasonaoie
interest on their money but the main
object in taking stock is to promote
the welfare of Newberry county and
whatever benefits the county, benefits
directly or indirectly every one of
the people who live in this county.
Good luck and God speed to ihe
Newberry county bus line. May tftey
find -a glad welcome in this good
county.
A CAT AND A RATTRUE
STORY OF A CHASE
I
jfcray Cat Drives Rat From Store and J
After Lively Race Heads
It Off
Xot far from the spot where that
mule fell dead some time ago. another
scene was enacted to the .*st ?nishment
of Messrs- R. C. Sligh. G. P.
Hiil, K. M. Evans and J. II. Wicker,
who witnessed the unusual sight.
These men were sitting in front of
Mr. Siign's store Wednesday of last
week. A stray cat went into the
store and in a little while they saw
a rat run out with the cat in pursuit.
The cat drove it away and chased it
rlwi onmor nf T"r?r?prtaI
Leavell's new place of business, when
the cat turned and made as though
for Sligh's store, but the cat headed
it ofT and ran it to Mr. McAllister's j
Pepsi-Cola plant, following it to that i
point and leaving it. The cat then returned,
seemingly pleased with the
idea that it had kept the rat from
coming hack. Th-it cat is different
from other cats. It did not seem to
want to catch or to tease the rodent,
but just appeared determined to keep
Jf /Mir nf tVin nrp from which it had
been chased by the watchful feline.!
It may have been, however, that the;
cat was not rat hungry right then,
else it is a strar.ge sort of cat, not at I
ail like its numerous relatives.

NEWS OF WHITMIRE, THE
TOWN THAT DOES THINGS
Whitmire, Oct. 12.?That "there's
many a truth told in jest" is more
apparent every day. The little paper
once published here was a huge
joke, but its slogan, "Whitmire will
win," was a truth that will not down.
Ground is being broken for the erection
of a city hall. This is to be a
very handsome 2 story brick building
and located on the prettiest lot in
town, just opposite the pcstoffice..
The second story will contain Mayor's
office, court room and a sleeping
room for the chief of the fire depart
merit, i ne ground noor win contain
the fire fighting apparatus and guard
house. The cost of this useful and
ornamental structure is to be about
$12,000, and will be completed by
the 1st of January.
Besides, the Standard Oil Company
is to install two or more large tanks
here for its products and make Whitmire
a distributing point for the surrounding
country. Mr. John Wm.
Hipp will be the company's general
manager and agent. With this in
view Mr. Hipp has bought the filling
station from Watson and McCullough.
From the time "whereof the
memory of man runneth not to the
contrary,*' John Wm. .has been connected
with the Glenn-Lwry.. Surely
f-imrhnnce and we change with
them. Dr. Boyd will do the clerical
I work formerly performed by Mr.

Young Brothers have purchased
Will Watson's dairy plant and from
27 cows are not able to supply the
local demand for sweet milk. This
wholesome fluid is fast taking the
place of Coca-Cola and tfther cold
drinks. Nearly all our merchants
buy it from the dairy and retail it in
half pints to those who would otherwise
drink dope.
