THE LARGEST CIRCULATION IN
EDGEFIELD COUNTY.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 26, 1911.
The smallest worm will turn, be
ing trodden on; and doves will peck,
in safeguard of their brood.-SHAKES
PEARE.
Which Is Correct?
Last week we published a detailed
statement of The Advertiser's circula
tion, showing it to be 1,573 copies, and
placing that of The Chronicle at less
than 1,300, neither of which state
ments have been questioned or denied,
yet The Chronicle still printed its usual
claim, "Largest circulation in Edge
field county," at the top of its editorial
column, If at any time a properly at
tested record shows that the circulation
of The Advertiser is less than that of
any other paper in the county, then we
will, without a murmur, withdraw our
claim to the largest circulation in the
county. Should not The Chronicle do
likewise?
Southern Farmers Have Monopoly.
The people of the old mother coun
try seem to be willing for the people
on this side of the Atlantic to continue
to supply them with raw cotton for
their spindles. The annual report of
the British Cotton Growing association
sets forth that the work of the associ
ation has been handicapped by the
apathy pnd indifference of the people.
The fa; ...?rs of a handful of southern
states have a monopoly of the cotton
production and should always be in a
position to control the price, withhold
ing the staple from the market when
the price is not profitable. The farm
ers of the cotton belt are learning a
few things from experience, and we
trust that the day is not far distant
when they will be "out of the woods,"
in a position to assert their indepen
dence.
Proven by the Record.
Having an authentic record upon
which to stand, The Advertiser claims
to be the oldest newspaper in South
Carolina. It was founded in 1835 and
has been published without interrup
tion since that time under the same
name. If there is a paper in the state
that can show by the record that it was
founded prior to 1835 and has been pub
lished since its founding under the same
name, then we will gracefully with
draw The Advertiser's claim to this
distinction, acknowledging that we have
been in error. The Advertiser can pro
duce the record. We have a copy of
the paper that was published in March,
1837, No. 4, Volume 2.
In October, 1908, we changed the
size of The Advertiser from a four to
an eight page paper,'printing a facsim
ile of the old copy of the paper in
that issue, and the editor of the Bam
berg Herald was kind enough to make
the following comment in the next is
sue of his paper:
The Edgefield Advertiser, al
ways a good newspaper, now
comes out as a sheet of eight
pages, with seven columns to
the page. We congratulate
Friend Mims upon his increased
advertising patronage, which
madii the enlargement neces
sary. The Advertiser is no
doubt the oldest newspaper in
South Carolina.-Bamberg Her
ald.
The foregoing shows that the writer
is not the only one who states that The
Advertiser is the oldest newspaper in
South Carolina. We would have made
no reference to this matter, but for
the fact that the truth of Th? Adver
ser's claim has been called into ques
tion.
Early Change of Schedule Contemplated.
While in ' olumbia last Friday, the
editor of The Advertiser called to see
Mr. H. A. Williams, the superinten
dent of the Columbia division of the
Southern railroad, concerning the in
convenient schedule that has been in
effect for so ne months between Co
lumbia and Augusta. Mr. Williams
stated that at the time the present
schedule became effective, he re
commended that the passenger service
between Columbia and Augusta be sup
plemented with a motor car. It was
his plan to have this car leave Leesville
early every morning and come to Edge
field, thence to Augusta, arriving at
about ten o'clock. Then make a mid
day trip to Johnston, returning to Au
gusta by the middle of the afternoon,
and then leave again for Leesville and
the intermediate points at say five or
six o'clock. A motor car, such as was
recommended for this branch of the
Southern, has been operated between
Anderson and Greenvilb for some
months with very satisfactory results.
For some reason or other Mr. Williams'
suggestion or recommendation was not
carried out by the officials higher up.
The cars, we understand, were actuall y
ordered but have never been diliv
ered.
Mr. Williams stated lhat a confer
ence will soon be held looking to mak
ing changes in many of the Southern's
schedules to become effective on May
the 10th, and that he will use his influ
ence to have the desired changes made
between Columbia and Augusta. Mr.
Williams received this complaint as to
present schedule in the proper spirit
and seemed disposed to do what he
could to hav the trouble remedied.

School Greetings, by Cleo (

The girls were most beautif
dressed and the school house
beautifully decorated with e
greens and flowers, of every
ceivable color both in side and
side. Nothing but artistic i
could have arranged them so i
with so many pretty children
flowers peeping from every c
and window and hanging f
nails. It made us feel like we
living in a land of flowers and 1
piness. Music was furnished by
Winn band and it was very sv
indeed, but we need not won
when we think that Miss Mary v
at the head of it. Her brother i
took part in some of it. The e2
cises were grand indeed and it <
ried my mind back to my sch
days. In fact it made me feel lil*
had lived my child-hood days o
again that evening. A good la
audience was held spell bound
two hours. J. P. Sullivan annou
ed the program, then came the g<
.nedals given by the teacher wh:
were presented by J. D. Hugh
and they are perfectly beautif
Mattie Lou Coleman won one
spelling. Elizabeth Sullivan w
ono on spelling and Evylon Sui
van won one on attendance, Eli:
beth Sullivan won one on spellin
making 53 headmarks, being mc
than double any of her classmate
Next in order was hiding the eg
for the Easter hunt. J. P. Sulliva
Guss Winn, and Mrs. Emma Cal
son, Mrs. Erin Rountree, Miss Li
zie Carter, Miss Callie Colema
were appointed to hide them. The
was quito a large number of eggs i
every conceivable color. When tl
hunt was announced there was qui
a rush of the children to see wi
could find the most, i
Well, the hunt is over and M
are back to the school house whe;
the golden sun is shedding its bea'
tiful rays over the sighing pine
The little stream gently glidin
over the rugged rocks and the bul
bles dancing the surface mingle
with the sweet songs of birds an
the merriment of childhood langi
ter. It made us think that tl
whole air was permeated with glac
ness. We were surrounded wit
joy and happiness and living in
world of happiness.
I desire to say that Miss Maggi
Winn is quite an able teacher. He
ability was proved by the fruits c
of her labor. She opened schoc
every morning with prayer ani
wielded a Christian influence ove
her students, training their hearts a
well as their minds.
The school of Sand Rock is full;
abreast of any school in the county
may her banner never be foun(
trailing in the dust but may it al
ways be found floating high upoi
the gentle breezes until it leadi
many children into some of the besl
colleges in the state.
I would be glad to impress every
one of the beauty of the Ressurrect
it. It represented the resurrection
of Christ. A cross formed with
beautiful lillies of different kinds.
Christ has risen, God has placed
many blessings within our reach
but we fail to reach out and grasp
them. He has blessed us with these
children and let's make the very
best of every opportunity that is
within our grasp for the develop
ment of our children's minds and
hearts and make tbe very best of
them that is in our power. May
thc school of Sand Roc'x be a cen
tral point for the equipment of boys
and girls to step out on life's broad
plains and battle through life's
journey with such teachers as Miss
Maggie Winn. It is possible for us
to have the material and all that is
needed is to develop it.
Well, the school is over and we
are on our way home with the joy
and pleasures of this most memora
ble occasion indelibly inscribed upon
our memory, and we shall look back
in ages to come and thank the good
Lord that this day dawned upon us.

Death of Mrs. Crawford. Parks
ville's Matrimonial Bureau.
"Better is the day of a man's
death, than the day of his birth"
?ayeth the scriptures. Man, in the
Bible of course, is usually used in
its generic sense, and means either
man or woman. These words from
Holy writ came into my mind last
week when that aged good woman,
Mrs. Geo. W. Crawford, passed into
the beyond. She was old, had seen
a great deal of the pain, heartaches
and disappointments of their sublu
nary existence, and we believe was
thoroughly prepared to receive the
welcome plaudit of the Master, and
go up higher. On last Friday her
mortal remains were laid to rest in
the Modoc cemetery beside that of
her departed husband, who had
preceded her many years. She leaves
four daughters, Mrs. Press Moore,
of Plum Branch, Mrs. Mattie and
Lizzie Beasley, of Harlem, Ga. Mrs.
Steve Wates of Modoc and two
sons, Messrs. Jim and Wiley Craw

Messrs. John Milton Bell of Au
gusta, Ga., and Louis Rich of the
town of Meriwether, spent Sunday
with relatives and friends ostensibly,
but we suspect they had seen our

the glances of a pair of brown, grey
or blue eyes. If that be their mis
sions, we invite them to come again
and look them ever, as this is no
fake advertisement. Parksville has

a good program and we hope a good

: corn which was planted early is up
to a pretty stand.
As a whole, grain crop is very
poor in this section but in places it
is very good. It is the general talk
among the farmers to make more
corn this year and we believe they
are going to do so unless providen

Our neighbor Jno. 0. Holmes or
his brother George has been cutting
down some of the hushes or small
trees from along the road side and
other places on his farm. We were
not surprised at the cool weather
this morning.
School is out now and the teach
ers, Miss Louise Lyon and Miss
Mabel Strom have returned to their
homes. My how they are missed in
the community! But we may console
ourselves with the thought that they
have consented to come back next
session and of course they will
spend a part of the vacation here
too. Also there are some good bug
gies and horses in this country and
the roads to Rehoboth and Edge
field are good and the length of
course is not enough to consider
when there is such an attraction at
the end.
The Misses Long who taught the
McDaniel and China schools are
very much missed. Though the boys
may be grieving we can imagine we
hear Donald and Henry Smith's
horses giving a deep sigh of relief.
We are sorry to report that Mrs.
King, Mrs. W. E. Prescott's moth

Mrs. Littlejohn we are glad to
