Normal Again
The !ate cars leaving Anderson last
night were crowded to the guurds with
people returning to their homes after
the big circus day here- The crowd,
while a little smaller than baa been
the case on previous circus days, was
Btill iarger than most towns In
this section urnish for the
gala occasion. lt ls estimated
that all told over 10,000 or pos
sibly 11,0000 people winessed the af
ternoon performance and many peo
ple walked he streets, without visiting
the show grounds al all. The circus is
really "bigger and better" and lt up
holds the reputation of being tho best
in the world.

Georgia People
Here Yesterday
Wayne Todd, for some time qjght I
clerk ai the Chiquola hotel, came over)
from Elberton, Ga., yesterday to at
tend the circus. Mr- Todd was accom
panied by a number of friends from his
town and he said that there seemed to
be more Georgia people in town for
the day than people from South Taro
lina towns. Hartwell and Elberton I
were both well represente., through-1
out the day.
Condition of

A telegram was received In Ander

M*ay Drivers
LOgt Their Heads
Anderson streets were probably I
more crowded .wita ' traffic "yesterday |
than they have been since circus dsy of
last year. Counties? automobiles from
every part of South. Carolina and some
from Georgia plied the streets while lt
would be lmpossshl to even estimate
the number of wasroua and buggies on
thc streets- Many drivers lost their
heads and some their tempers as well |
ad various impolite epithets wre hurl-i
ed from one side of the road to the |
other.
Shaping Plans
For the Elevator.
Plans are well nuder way for the I
building of a grain elevator in Ander- j
eon and so far as can now be seen
there is absolutely no reason why the I
venture should not be launched. A j
number of firms engaged lu the cutn
struction of grate elevators with ma
chinery for equipping same, are now In
communication with local parties and
within the next few days a number
of representatives of various houses
will come to Anderson to confer with
th? local promoters of the scheme
_o-. i
Cutting Scrape
..Was Not Serions.
The mot serious row to occur yes-'
terday, although lt hardly amounted to
anything really serious, took place
about 10 o'clock yesterday morning
in the Fanners Can? when Peter P.
Shaw, of the Cara well Institute sec
tion was slashed across the forehead |
with a razor. The police were sum
moned and quickly quelled the diffi
culty wheu they, took a hand. Three
arrests were made Sad - Shaw's wounds
were attended by a phyaclan- He has
already recovered.

! Cotton on HUI
To Use New Seeks.
.A letter aa received In Anderson!
yesterday from the Walerboro ( ottoni
OH Company, of Waterboro, tn which
they say that they are planning to
uar' cotton cloth meal sacks from this !
time on. The firm had heard that'
some husiness man in Andersen waa
placing these sacks on the market and
straightway made aa effort to get la
touch with him, since they naturally
desire to sid the Southern farmer as
much as possible.
Y SPARKLETS *
_ *
al Mention Caught Over the *
treete of Anderson *
May Do Awn/
With the H. V D
A number of Anderson people are j
much alarmed over a rumor heard on
the streets to the effect that the gov
ernment is, contemplating doing away
with the every day delivery of mail on
jonie of the rural free delivery routes
in Anderson county and making the
service every other day instead.
Whether or not the report heard here
is authentic remains to be seen, but
grave apprehensions are being enter
tained and considerable fear is evinced 1
that there may be some truth in the
rumor. No section of the county could ?
afford to lose Its present mail facili
ties and doubtless protests will soon
be going to Washington by the dozen.

Motorist HeTe
Is On Long Trip.
Samuel Young, accompanied by his 1
mother and father, arrived in Ander
son last night, en route from his borne
at Pittsburgh, Pa., to his winter place
In Tampa, Fla. Mr- Youn? ls making
the trip In a Buick, 1915 model- He
says that Anderson can boast of one
stretch of the best road to be found
between Flint, Mich., and Atlanta, Ga
The particular piece of road referred
to by Mr. Young is from' Willlamston
to Anderson. Speaking of road ques
tions, Mr. Young says that the road
from the Virginia line to Rocky
Mount, N. C-, is the worst he ever
saw. The distance is only 28 miles,
but lt required all day for him to make
the trip
Others Also
Would Like It
A well known cotton man of Texas
evidently thinks that conditions in
South Carolina are considerably better
than they are in his State. He wrote
to Anderson yesterday, saying that he
would like to dispose of between 10,
000 and 25,000 bales of cotton to An
derson mills. Not only the man in
Texos but farmers around Anderson
would like to dispose of the same arti,
cle to the local mills If they could
command what they believe lt is
worth.
Railroad WIH
Curtail Service.
Anderson people will learn with
some regret that the Southern railway
isplannlng to curtail its service be
tween Greenville, Belton and Green
wood. Four traine are t obe taken off,
according to the plan presented before
the South Carolina railroad commis
sion. Officials of the railroad stated
to the commission that sweeping re
ductlons are imperative and that they
are having to retrench all along the
line.

THE IDEA IS
The salaried man has no partic
ular excuse for talking hard times
now
Bin
That he would probably have a
real Hard Luck story to tell un
less part of every month's sal
ary is helping to pay for a home.
THEREFORE
We suggest that every salaried
man investigate our "Looking
Ahead" plan for owning a North
Anderson Home.
