In the death of Marm Eliza Thompson, which occurred Tues day night after a sickness of five weeks as the result of a stroke of paralysis, the community has lost one of its most faithful old ser vants, the number of -whom is growing so much smaller without :eeiving any recruits. She was bout 75 years old and for quite a nmber of years had been with he family of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Brown, who showed their appre iation of her faithifuJ services by seing that she lacked nothing in er last days. She was quite favorite, not only with their bildren, by whom she will be so orelv missed, but also with all he white children who knew her. ~fany of the ladies of the commu aity visited her in her last illness, d her grave in the colored cem ~terv was well covered with flow irs.~placed their by the white bildren, who thus paid a tribute o the memory of one who won bhe esteem of all by a life of faith Eul service. Paying Interest to Depositors. By reference to our advertislng olumns it will be seen that the Winnsboro Bank has made a new ad radical departure in its rela bion to depositors. It will here after pay interest to depositors n the ground that modern bank ing being largely based on depos its, it is deemed wise to make the epositors to as great extent as it is prudent participants in the rofits of the institution, where heir deposits are kept. In a conversation with the offi cials of this institution, we learn that the amount that would have hus been distributed to deposi tors during the year 1905, if this policy had then been in force, would have amounted to between 2,00 and $2,500; so that the de positors would in the aggregate have gotten about one-fourth as much as the stockholders received in dividends. The payment of this amount of interest to depositors will make it necessary for this bank to re duce its dividend rate from 10 to 8 per cent, which latter rate will be the policy of the bank in the future. There is a good custom obtains in China that ought to be in troduced here, and that is that everyone pays his debts by the irst of each January. How muoh better it is to begin the new year free from debt. If you are so involved that ti is not possible to pay up entirely by that date, why not wipe out a portion and begin the New Year with empty hands perhaps, but with a stout heart and a determination to get free from debt. What our people need is to get on a cash basis.-Ex. The- mission of "Early Risers" is t< aear the way and give Nature ful iway.

The organization of the Bank o Fairfield was completed at a meet ing of the directors last Tuesday when the following officers were elected: W. R. Rabb, president T. W. Traylor, vice-president; J M. Jennings, cashier. Mr. Rabb, the president, is one of Winnsbore's successful mer chants and will prove a worthy head for this new financial insti tution. Capt. Traylor, the vice president, is one of the county's largest land owners and ablest Lusiness men, having worked him self up from the ground, so to speak. The success of the new bank, however, will depend most largely upoo the cashier; and fortunate indeed is it in securing for this important position Mr. J. M. Jen nings, a son of State Treasurer Jennings and a banker of consid erable experience, having for sev eral years past ser'ed as cashier of the State Bank of Columbia. Mr. Jennings is an old Fairfield iboy, and in the various capacities in which he has served has proved himself most acceptable by his business ability and his pleasing personality. He will be most gladly welcomed back to his old home town and county, where he has so many friends. Buchanan & Hanahan have been cLosen as attorneys for the new bank. The directors will meet to-day for clecting a teller and completing all the arrangements for opening at an early day.
