Christmas and a Happy New Year, and to thank you most heartily for the business you have given us this year, and the confi dence and patience you have had in us, with the hope and wish that 1926 will bring all of us more Health, Wealth and Happiness. Barnwell County is among the best and safest counties in the State for agricultural pursuits where we grow Cotton, Corn, ^Peas, Potatoes, Melons, Asparagus, Cucumbers, Cantaloupes; and, beginning first of tKe New Year, our bank will be ready and willing to assist the loyal customers of our Bank in our Bank’s territory to gro^w these crops and for the larger farmers we will endeavor to secure advances throughT tfic Intermediate Credit Association operated by the Federal Government. We are sug gesting kindly to the farmers not to increase—rather decrease, their cotton acreage, as to grow another Sixteen Million Bale Crop of Cotton would be hazardous. However, don t neglect your cotton, but try a small acreage of melons, Cantaloupes and cucum bers to the plow. This can be followed by corn and peas. We will assist you to get the seed, and send a truck to your farm to haul them, getting the best prices attainable, and it*s more important than ever that we raise everything we eat and our stock eats on our own farm, and that “EFFICIENCY and ECONOMY" will be our slogan for 1926. HARRY D. CALHOUN, President. Community Bible Class Wants Prohibition Law Enforcement Blackville, Dec. 22 —At a rt'tfular meeting: of the Dora Perkins Com munity Bible Class of Blackville, it was moved, seconded and unanimous ly carried that the class pass a reso lution for the purpose of Roinjc on record as beinp in favor of the strict enforcement of the Prohibition Law. M committee was a^ipointed to draw the resolution to be adopted by the class at its retrxilar meeting held on November 16th. 192f». The following is a ropy of the resolution drawn by the committee: Whereas, we. the member* of The Dora Perkins Community Bible Class, both as a body and as individuals, Ih*- lieve with Dr. Dor gun that strong drink is one of the greatest f«K*s of humanity and the direct cause of a vast part of the crime committed in our nation; and that tire use of intoxi cating bever*£c* hurts everything that is good and helps everything that is evil, sapping individual char acter, destroying health, cursing so ciety, ruining homes, befouling poli tic* and being instrumental in brng- ing about counties* other evil con ditions: And Whereas, we further believe that because of the fact that the drink evil corrupts the oonscience, weakens the mind ’and imperils the soul. every Christian and good citizen should be enlisted in a * . . r* warfare against strong drink, which battle can best be waged by the creat ing of strong public sentiment against the violation of the Prohibition Law and supporting 'miy those officers for re-election who have shown them selves vigilant in the enforerjnent of nil law and n«*t»cn , arl\ in the en forcement of ibis law. which is far- reaching in its influence for bettor conditions both so, ially ;«nd political ly, and by making a determined ef fort to vote in the first instance only for those men whom we have reason to believe will be strictly and active ly for the strict enforcement of pro hibition: And Whereas, we also believe tlwvt it is essential to the cause of prohibi tion that we have a legislature that is so heartily in favor of The Vol stead Act that they will pass such laws as are necessary to insure pro hibition to a high degree and that the individual members will prove their belief in the laws so passml by them selves totally abstaining from strong drink: And Whereas, wo realize that just as the women of the country were compelled to take the lead in having a national prohibition law passed by way of amendment to the Constitu tion, so it is necessary for the women of the Country to take the lead in the fight for the strict enforcement of prohibition: THEREFORE, Be I( Resolved by The Doi* Perkins Community Bible Class that we, both as a body and as individuals, .shall exercise our right of suffrage wherever opportunity presents itaelf in support of a strict Enforcement of our/prohibition laws to the end that onr town. State and nation may be a better place for the youth of our country to grow up in, that our politics may be purified and social conditions in general improved. And be it further resolved that we both as a body and as individuals shall continue in prayer from time to time that our country as t whole b4 cor people as individuals shall be freed from this great drink evil. And be it yet further resolved that a copy of these resolutions by publish- in the County newspapers and a copy mailed to the Town Council of Black ville and to the Sheriff of Barnwell County. It was moved and seconded that the foregoing resolutions be adopted 07 the class and the motion was un animously carried. RATIFIED this 16th day of No vember. 1925. MRS. T. O.
