(By VVm. P. Greene, Jr.)
Abbeville stepped into the lead of
the Carolina League when they gave
Anderson a licking by the tune of
5 to zero.
Abbeville scored in the first inn
ing when Galloway, R. led off with
a tripple and when Clark laid down a
beautiful bunt Galloway, R. scored.
Things went along all right for
McAllister until Galloway, R. sing- j
led, then Clark knocked a line drive >
to "Runt" Herron who dropped it#
and everybody was safe.
Reames, "the terrible" strowed to
the plate and slapped the apple on
the nose for four hassocks, scoring
Galloway, R. and Clark ahead of
him. Erwin then knocked a fly right
up between left field and center field
and gave the fans a real exhibition
of base running when he made two
bags on it.
Allen pitched one of the best
?ames of his career when he shut
aut the hard hitting Electricians. He
tvas helped out once or twice by
spectacular fielding by the infield and
>ut field.

ATTEMPT TO BLOW

Shanty Car Occupied by Negrofcs.
Car Damaged.
Asheville, N. ., Aug 12?Inves
tigations were started today by the
United States marshal's office, the
sheriff's department and officials
of the Southern railway to establish
the identity of persons who explod
ed a charge of gunpowder under a]
shantycar occupied by negroes in
the local Southern yards last night.
No persons were injured al
though the car, occupied by several
men at supper, was damaged.
Sound of the detonation was heard
many blocks, occurring about
| 11.30 p. m. Scraps of newspapers
led to the belief that the explosive)
had been wrapped in them. Inves
tigators said today the effect of the
explosion practically established the
belief that gun powder and not dy
namite was used.

FARM NEWS AND GOSSIP
By the County Agent.
LET'S GET ACQUAINTED
If I knew you and you knew me
'Tis seldom we would disagree;
But never having clasped hands,
Both often fail to understand
That each intends to do what's right,
And treat each other "Honor Bright"
How little to complain there'd be,
If I knew you and you knew me.
When a County Agent or any
other public official enters a new
field of activity it requires six months
or a year and sometimes longer for
him to learn enough about local
condition for his work to function
with any great degree of success.
However, this will <dtepend largely
upon the ability of the individual
to study and analize local needs and j
sentiment and upon the alertness of1
the people to respond.
In Abbeville County there are 2,

fUU new lat'co tu ue icaiueu >vy biic
man, while there is hut one to be
learned by the public, so it will take
sometime to learn everybody's face
and still longer to learn their names,
but it is not necessary for you to
wait for an introduction, if you meet
the new agent in the street, at church
or a ball game walk Tight up and
make yourself known. The Agent
may meet you in a casual way ahd
then not be able to recognize yoa
if met at some other time, but he
will always appreciate your kind
ness if you 4rill just smile and tell
him who you aire.
