JMERTON NEWS 1RSLY TOLD, As a consistent people, let is close eyes to present condi "ons. And ,the. remainder of '921, and the die year of 192, pass away while ,dleep, -and 1pw in the beginning of , we oYfen our eyes and look Id agn., find out some of the things >k place. And we find that * .cally no cotton is beingmade, very little efforts are being made ake cotton. And instead of cot gins - -f%Ve'ry cross- roads, wi-hd veral grain elevators In diffenfT ta of the county. We also,. M or ' three sweet potato fl1'. FIs in the county, and doing a fine ness, and more and more of our ers are making arrangements to ake potatoes for this puropse. And addition to the grain elevators and e potato flour business, lots of live s-ck is now being raised. And every' J3 y-seems to be happy, the taxes are Wlaced considerable, and it really be Ina t6 look like we are going to live Again, but that instead of a few .OSSES," giving orders as to what people can plant and what they can't isa thing of the past, and the old day (of dourg business on credit is a thing of the past. What a man buys he -pays for and gets it at a fair price, -angothe man that heretofore bought stuff without ever expecting to pay for. it, and stood back and let the good ' 1honut. follow pay two prices for his merchandise-to make up for the fel. 11 oO that did not pay, is getting along' mrebetter just paying for his own 40wod, ad the fellow who heretofore , tha-had not bIe paying is getting aldig-just as well, and is a much bet tOr man, because he has gone to work and does' not have time to study up' his devilment and does not have time to go,around and talk about his neigh o bo and tell all kinds of falsehoods on i therh. And the people as a whole are just simply getting along very fine. When it comes to the merchants they lf nret,,he happiest set of people we ever saw they have no accounts on . books, nothing to -worry about, When a bill of goods conic in they pay the "long green," and get it cheap that they can sell it the same _ ."dying truth" of the whole is we are living on just about o c-half that it took some two years ago, and are living so much better until we have just about forgotten that we ever did depend on cotton for our oney crop. Having learned by this time that it is not money we * needed, something to eat, pure and clean, honest people to deal with, and a satisfied people from the mountain tthe sea. And this we are now en-. J ying; the chain gangs are thinly p pulated, the penitentiarys are hiring1 men 'for the lack of labor, the county kil. are just about empty, and the' ptilhouses are worthless property ow. And tbe "blue coat, brass but ton wearers" heretofore have laid down their "regalia," and gone to the equntr'y and are raising "hog and lidminy." And folks can go to town and come back and not be "slapped" on the shoulder. Just a dream, let's let it come to pass. The Radcliffe Chautauqua people # wereshere this week for three (lays, tl. program it is said was grand, but the attendance was far below Sum morton's average'heretofore. This is very strong evidence that there is really a scarcity of money. For as a ' rule, #he good people of Summerton never let a good thing go by without reaping the benefits. The failure of the pthlic to attend these attractions is very much regretted because it meani a loss to a number of our good and true patriotic citizens who guar * anteed1 the .payment of these interest nIIg educating and elevating attrac 1tions.,, But realizing fully they were fom to suffer a loss so far as dlollar's and , nts is concernedc~ the guarantor's wer'e big hear'ted enough to adnmit ever'ybody undler age of 16 free the #jstAuhighf..
