Desolation Urges (irowcis to Offer: Only Better (inuUs ami to Fix Minimum Figures. Florence, July 22?Definite action as to what is best to be done to ob tain relief from the situation created' * ' by low priced tobacco will be determined at the meeting of the Tobacco fll'nWOI'c' ;icc/tninfinti #*1* Contli lina in Florence Friday, July 21?. The Warehousemen's association was ask-1 ed by the indignation mass meeting r here today to meet a committee from J the growers' organization Saturday for the purpose of fixing a minimum, price at which tobacco will be per-i mitted to sell in this state. It was admitted that nothing was to be gain-] ed by demanding better prices and' that control of the crop by the fanners themselves in the acreage undi matter of marketing was the only] avenue of relief. Farmers are urged in resolutions adopted to offer; only the better grades, well cleaned, and picked, and not to bring any to-] bacco Whatever to market until after the meeting here next Friday: when definite steps as to price will be taken for their guidance. Speakers urged today that tobacco selling for two and three cents a pound was worth more as fertilizer. There were probably 100 present t~ K representing nil lines of business, and while the meeting opened slow it developed into a pyro'echnical display later on. Some delegations from surrounding counties brought in reports of such bad feeling in sonie sections against the present low prices as to give rise to apprehension as to what might happen in some localities unless the people were brought to an understanding of all conditions. Discussion today was frank and freeNearly all of the principal markets were represented. Some telegraphed they were water bound. E. C. Epps, a banker of Kingstree, offered the following resolutions and they were adopted: "Whereas citizens representing various tobacco markets in South Carolina, called together in mass meeting bv the secretary of the tobacco association by request of certain local markets for the purpose of discussing the prevailing conditions of the present markets and the prices offered thereon, after due deliberations and thought, do hereby resolve and recommend the following suggestions as the only practical means and ( methods whereby more uniform and more satisfactory prices may be obtained. "First: We recommend that farmers devote their best efforts towards harvesting and curing only better grades of tobacco and that the same be cleaned and picked before being offered for sale on the warehouse flcors. "Second: That, all such tobacco receiving bids less than the price to be determined next Friday, to be withheld from sale and be used f*'1"tilizer upon the farm on which grown. "Third: We recommend that the warehousemen of the state refrain front bidding upon offers for sai(. unh ss at least one bid is made by an (authorized buyer not engaged in or in onv wav rnnneoted with the ware house business. "Fourth: That all tobaccos offered j fej sale that do not bring at least /"ihe fixed price be passed by the warehousemn and returned to the producer. "Fifth: That the Warehousemen's association be and is hereby requesttd call u meeting of all warehousemen in South Carolina in Florence Saturday, July 30, and at this time the said association together with a committtee, which will be appointed from the growers' association which meets in Florence Friday, July 29, will fix a minimum price at which any tobacco will be permitted to .sell in this state. That it is the sense of this meeting that the farmers throughout the state be encouraged |?as far as possible to withhold sales of* tobacco from the warehouse floors t until after the meeting of the State 1 Growers' Association next Friday and the meeting of the Tobacco Warehousemen's association on Saturday, July 29 and 30, respectively." > o Business Coming Buck Slowly. "The man who expects business to come back with a rush is fooling himself," remarked Mr. R. S. Rogers ytsterday in conversation with a Her aid man. "In my opinion," continued Mr. Rogers, "the tide has turned and from now on there will be a gradual improvement. Worrying over the present prices of tobacco is borrowing unnecessary trouble. The price will improve as the grades improve anci two or three weeks from now the S tobacco planter may be smiling. I have watched it year in and year * out," observed Mr. Rogers, "and the country does not feel the effects of tobacco sales until along about the first of August. The banks would be the first to note an improvement, and even the banks do not see any / improvement in July. The market opened ten days later this year and it will probably be about the 10th or 15th of August before we see tnuch evidence of tobacco money." o The principal and teachers of the Dillon Colored School attended the State Normal School at Orangeburg this month, and took the full course. 3 (She THE DILLON* HEKAL.E An Unfortunate Cliurcli.. Pastor Gregg of the First Baptist church, colored, made an unusual announcement in last week's Herald.) He notified the public that it was necessary to tear down and rebuild their church building. The church' has had a series of misfortunes. The| colored Baptists of Dillon have al-j ways been weak in numbers but' strong in the spirit. Years ago when the congregation was much smaller than it is today a few of the faithful got together and erected the present church building. .Many menibersr who could not contribute money gave their labor freely while otherrs tnude contributions in the form of building material. But the church was erected and happy was this small handful of Baptists when they began j to worship under their own vine and fig tree. But ere long misfortune | came. A heavy wind storm swept overj the community and tore away i?irt of the church building. Undaunted the congregation went to work and repaired the damage done by the elements. Once more they settled down to worship regularly every Sunday and the members were happy and? contented. But following close on the ! heels of the first came a second mis| fortune. During un electric storm ! lightning struck the church and tore | away the steeple and part of the roof. Once more did the congregation go Ito work industriously and repair the |damage done by the elements. But (scarcely had the second misforjtune been overcome when again (lightning struck the steeple doing considerable damage to the 1 building, and a few weeks ago (steeple was struck the third time and the church suffered considerable , damage. The ignorant and superstitious began to look upon these misfortunes with feelings of awe. It was u warning from above that all was (not well with the church and its peoIiIp. and tin. I.ni-it um>d .......: : ? his displeasure in a strong and convincing way. But such was not the jease. The colored Baptists were unit, led in every movement for the upbuilding of their church. So they got together and decided to tear down the old building and rebuild the church from the bottom. Why this church should have been singled out by the jelements as the particular object of I their anger is explained probably by the fact that owing to the construction of neighboring buildings strong air currents were directed toward the j church building. Lightning follows ithe line of least resistance and when Ja descending bolt conies in contact with a swiftly-moving current of air it is quite natural that the bolt should be influenced by the air current. There is nothing supernatural -about the misfortunes the colored Baptist church has suffered from the forces of nature. On the oilier hand the causes are perfectly natural and would happen to any building located ion the same spot. Saved CJiiTs Home. The subject under discussion was j "money"?a subject which has for the past few months been discussed from every angle. "The only man I 'know of in this section who ought to have any cash money," remarked one of the gentlemen in the party, "is Rev. Baxter McLendon, the noted .evangelist of Benneltsville. I understand that In- lias just closed a big meeting in Asheville and thc people [were so much enthused over the good work he did in the famous ! mountain oily thai they made big contributions at every meeting he held." "That is true," replied Mr. Jas. Car. micliael. "Baxter McLendon never finds any difficulty raising inorc. than 'enough money to carry on ltis meetings and if he kept ail the money tlm people gav.e hint he would soon have more money than he would know what to do with, hut he doesn't keep it. He is one of the biggest hearted men I ever knew and the world ,has no idea of the amount of charity i work he does. He takes care of I widows and orphans, buys clothes jand food for the needy, and keeps for himself very little of what he receives. I heard of a big-hearted thing he did up here in a North Carolina town where 'ie was carrying on a successful meeting. Among the substantial contributions at one of the services was a check for $50 from a young girl who worked for a living. When the check was presented at. the bank for deposit the cashier looked at it and turning to Mr. McLendon said: 'This girl is not ablh to make ' this contribution. We have a mortgage on her home for $1700 and we ,are arrarnging to foreclose it today.' The evangelist studied a moment. 'Let me have that check back,' he said. 'Now hand me over that mortgage and charge the amount to my account.' The transaction completed, ! he took the cancelled mortgage and presented it to the girl. That is what Mr. McLendon does with his money," continued Mr. Carmichael. "If he kept it himself he wouldn't know what to do with it." o Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Gibson and children, Mrs. M. G.

T1 (OMIMJMKNTS COINTY OFFIC'KKS Comptroller's Auditor Says Dillon Has efficient Set of Officers. Mr. Jones, representing the. Comptroller General's office, who recently tt ade a complete audit of the conn 1 ty's affairs, lias filetl liis report and compliments the several officers very, highly. Following are extracts from; the report commenting in a general way upon the several offices: t Mr. D. S. Allen, i Books and Records. The Auditor has prepared the tax duplicate with a remarkable degree of care and accuracy..and the ah-, st tacts furnished the Comptroller General nr.. p?,...,^nioii?n -V"....' of the taxes and penalties levied.' They are neat, accurate, and comply (Strictly with the law. Tax Statement We have carefully audited the duplicate and have no corrections nor criticisms to offer. On pace two of, this report we submit a condensed statement of all taxes and penalties charged to the treasurer on account of 19lit taxes. These amounts agree with those charged the treasurer in the annual settlement of June 30,' 1920. tieneral Comments. We beg to call attention to the jfact that, in addition to diligently and efficiently performing the routine duties of his office, this officer lias been instrumental in the passing of more than one bill of constructive legislation. For example, when the present Audi,tor took charge there were cases where one school district lay in more than one township. 1 his makes no special difference except that there would be several Township Hoards of Assessors passing on property in the same school jdistrict. Through the efforts and at | the instigation of Mr. Allen this law ; liar been changed so that no school !district extends beyond the boundaries of the Township in which it is j situate. This not only docs away with a needless confusion of townships land school districts, but also greatly j facilitates 'ho work of 'he County ; Auditor us well as that of any aejcouniant who may wish to check his I accounts. I A second act for which tht. County 'Auditor is largely responsible is one ! relative to the Boards of Township ; Assessors. It has been customary to .appoint so many men from a township regardless of the school district from which they came or the number of school districts in the township. The law as changed is that there be one representative from each school i district, a more intelligent law by far. We refrain from further comments other than to commend this officer for his all-around ability and efficiency. Office of Clerk of Court. Mr. Sam McLaurinIlcoks and Itccords. We have mad.- a general inspection of the records of iliis office, and find that the Clerk of Court i keeping all books required by law. His accounts and files ar, conveniently arranged and this officer's work as a whole appears to bo satisfactory. Fines and Licenses. We submit on .page -t of this repert, a statement showing the col mi iions on iiccmiiii ??i i nips, iori? Hurt's an<i licenses as indicated by the books of tin's office, covering the period commencing July 1st. l.rt-0 and ctidi.it: Juno 7. 1021. \\'e find that aU money collected has been properly accounted for and promptly turned over to the Treasurer. Trust Funds. The amount, of trust funds held by this officer is very small, hut we 1/iVe checked and found correct his trust fun<; account, see page "> for statement. Office of County Commissioners. Mr. J. H. Mcf.aurin. Chairman, Mr. J. H. Edwards, Clerk. Hooks and Records. We have carefully audited the books In this officc. and beg to rept rt that they are well-kept. All claims are systematically filed and are listed properly in th,? claim register. Separate accounts are carried in the ledger against the several items of appropriation as provided in the county supply bill. Claims are audited and verified before being approved for payment, a custom upon which too much stress cannot bo placed. They are also drawn up and I )>i uuaieu as required oy law. AS a | general proposition this office is bejing conducted on sound business principles, and good records are be1 ing kept. Office of .Itulgo of Probate Mr. J. C. Davis Hooks and Records The Judge of Probate is keeping his records as thc law requires, and all accounts are neat and accurate. All papers are systematically filed, and the whole work of th(. office is extraordinarily well systematized. Intilligent records of the proceedings of the Probate Court are being kept. We beg to state that we encounteredj no difficulty at all in checking this officer's records. Marriage Licenses. The law provides that the Judge of Probate in this County shall receive all revenue obtained from the Rale of marriage licenses, therefore there are no funds to be checked from this account.

Even in the remotest' parts of Africa the automoblie is, known and it is no strange sight to see a machine plowing its way through jungle roads where the lion and leopard still hold sway. "Hut vou would not think," remarked Mr. F. M. Niernsie, "that within less than 100 miles of Dillon the automobile is a strange sight: yet i' is a fart.
