The new ear is a four don, close

Hudson construction and dcsiyn. 'I'hi-

"These cars are custom-built by
one of the oldest and best known
body manufacturers in the country,”
said Mi Harley. ‘‘The construction
is till aluminum, and the details of

standard as the Hudson sedans m the

'•'he plant, yood will, subscription list, etc., of The Barnwell Sentinel
were sold Saturday to B. P Davies, editor and owner of The Barnwell People,
jiml henceforth this newspaper wall be known as "THFI BARNWELL
1 EOPI.E-SEN I ENEL. Mr. Davies haviny consolidated the tvro papers.
\\ bile this annodnci merit will probal'lv come as a surprise to many read
ers of the two pajK-rs, it has been realized for some time by those on the
"inside" that the field here is too small to support them lx>th as they should
be supported. Heme, the decision on the part of the parties interested to
effect a consolidation whereby the best interest of all concerned cottld be best
conserved.
As The St ate remarked in commentiny on the recent sale of The Edge-
field ( hronii le, " I h»- passing of any newspaper ffom a ccxnmunity in which
il h;is had its heiny for ;i yeneration or more is a pathetic incident.
But such incidents, pathetic as they are, nevertheless are occasionally inevita
ble. Economic necessity governs and imposes its mandate. There is proa-
j erity where two heads of grain grow where one grew before, but where two
newspapers attempt to live in a community where there’s legitimate support
for hut one, there is hut one inevitable end sooner or lat*4£^ And not alone
are the owners of the papers affected by such enditions. The’community
suffers, since neither paper can expand so as to give its besT to its town; no
multiplicity Of hampered, restricted newspapers can give the value in service
to a town which it is possible for one journal, unhampered and running to as
Oil capacity as support will warrant, to render.”
The sub-enpt ion list of The Sentinel will he combbined with that of The
People and all unexpired subscription will be filled by The Barnwell
People-Sentinel. Until the mailing list has beben revised, there will probably
he some duplications where persons have been taking both papers. Likewise,
in the future those who are indebted to The Sentinel for that paper will make
payment at this office. The editor extends a cordial welcome to every sub
scriber of The Sentinel and hopes to give them the best weekly newspaper
in South Carolina and to this end he solicits their cordial cooperation and
• up port.
The consolidation of The People and The Sentinel gives the new’ paper
i circulation several times as large as that of any other newspaper published
Barnwell County and one of the largest of any weekly newspaper in lower
in
South Carolina. In addition, the combined plants make up one of the best
equipiM-d newspa|H-r and job offices in this section of the State. Several new

And now just a word as fo the future editorial policy of The Barnwell
People-Sentinel: Briefly, it is a square deal to everybody. The paper will
he controlled by nu clique, elan nor faction and its columns will be open at all
times to the Dee and impartial discussion of timely topics. Factionalism
will he taboo and the editor invites his readers to lend their assistance in
promoting the best interest xtf the town and county. Later he may have
something more to -my along this line. In the meantime, it is hoped that
ft lends of both papers will lend their material support to the end that Barn
well County mav boast of a newspajx-r in which every reader may take a
pai doiiithle pride and the splendid traditions of The People and The Sentinel
be upheld.
