GREENWOOD'S COMPLAINT.
1
The following paragraph is taken
from the Greenwood Index-Jeurnal: ]
"Complaint has been made to The <
Index-Journal from one of the towns ^
in the county that cotton yesterday ]
sold in Abbeville for twenty-eight *
and a quarter cents the pound while '
Greenwood yesterday paid only twen- (
- " ty-seven and three quarters. It is up *
to the business men of the communitv."
(
This state of affairs is nothing v
new. The cotton market in Abbeville
has always been better than Greenwood's
market, ranging from .10 to ^
100 points. <
We thought that Greenwood had t
excepted the situation as inevitable
and only prayed that Abbeville I
County should not wake up and I
build good roads so that Greenwood
farmers could bring their cotton to ?
the local market in sufficient quan- ^
tities to make it profitable. c
Good roads in all sections of the (
county would in like manner, prove ^
profitable to the farmers living in
this county.

'HICKORY NUTS" OF )
30TH DIVISION ADD I
TO LAURELS I
(From the Nashville Tennesseean.) H
The Hickory Nuts have come and I
;one. But the v6ry pleasant taste H
;hey left in everybody's mouth last I
n'crht caused the announcement that |
;hey would return next fall to be B
greeted with thunderous applause. ,B
No professionals could have gotten B
he appreciation that was showered B
>n Captain Irving O'Hay's troupe of B
Thirtieth Division boys when they B
nade their bow to Nashville in the B
iftemoon and evening. B
The fact that they wehre as good B
;ntertainejrs as had ever been seen B
tere on the vaudeville stage did not B
nake that packed house forget that B
hey were among the boys who B
roke the famous Hun line. H
They were not in uniform, those B
hirty-six, and for the most part their B
ntertainment did not bear the stamp B
f the military. But, of course, that B
udience, which was made up mostly B
f Thirtieth Division men and their B
weethearts, just had to have a few B
rmy jokes. # ' |B
The dominating personality of the B
how is Captain O'Hay himself, who B
itroduced the performers and told B
rhat they were going to do. He sug- H
ested the change of scenery, told B
le pfice of costumes, and gave away B
lany stage secrets.
Captain O'Hay was really an in^'B
irlocutor, a program in disguise.1B
[one of the printed variety was need B
d, and there was none. ^
"I have seen many good shows," |B
lid a New York woman to Hub B
Wilson after the matinee, "and I B
ant you to know I haven't seen one B
9 good as yours in many a day.' B
[y daughter is so carried away with B
that she is going back tonight." |B
A Birthday Party. B
Miss Gwen Bristow entertained, B
i JK
er class, the 11th, in the High jfl
chool, and a few friends; at a de-'B
ghtful party Tuesday night at her|B
ome at the Baptist Parsonage. |B
hree of the High School teachers B
ere present and the time passed B
lernly in charades, guessing con-, Bj
rsts, and games. Cream and cake ! Hj
as served as^ refreshments. |HThe
class presented Miss Gwen j K|
ith a beautiful pin as a souvenir of i
very happy occasion and to keepjO}
