ter your attention at once, if you

desires that Mr. Taylor be returnee

The ladies of the Civic League ex
press themselves as being very grate
ful to the ladies of Johnston, Tren
ton, Aiken and other communities
for the way in which they are patron
izing the splendid community fail

The annual Episcopal Bazaar will
be held in the court house Saturday,
December 2. The Episcopal ladies
are in a class all by themselves when
it comes to holding a Bazaar and we
feel confident that the one of 1922
will measure up to the very high
standard set in years gone by.
Mr. L. T. May had sufficiently im
proved to be at his post as clerk o?
the board pf county commissioners
at the regular monthly meeting yes
terday. His friends were delighted to
see him out again. He will go to Co
lumbia today for examination by a
specialist.
The monthly report of the super
visor is published in this issue. Su
pervisor Edmunds is holding down
the expense of the county to the
lowest notch and in this he has the
splendid cooperation of Commission
ers Talbert and DeVore. The old
county's financial interests are safe
in the hands of this trio.
The Advertiser publishes a very
interesting account of a visit by "Un
cle" Rufus Derrick to the old sol
diers' home in Columbia, last w?ek
while he was attending the state fair.
Mr. Derrick says he wishes all of the
old veterans could visit the home and
see how well the old .'soldiers are
treated.
Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Rhodes, Mr.
and Mrs. J. W. Boseman, and Wood
row Boseman came over from Dar
lington Sunday afternoon to attend
the services at the First Baptist
church on Sunday night. They were
guests of the Rev. and Mrs. Arthur
T. Allen. They returned home Mon
day morning.
Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Jamison went
up to Clemson college on Sunday to
see their son, Thames Jamison, who
is attending college. Miss Lillian Pat
tison accompanied them ard on their
return trip they came by Anderson
college and had a visit with Miss
Ouida Pattison who is on the facul
ty of Anderson college.
People seem to be indifferent to
the things that affect them most
vitally. For. instance, although there
were scores of farmers from all parts
of the county here Monday it was im
possible, for lack of interest, to hold
the mass meeting in the court house
immediately after the sales in the in
terest of establishing a creamery.
Misses Margaret Blocker and Em
mie Broadwater came home from
their school duties at Ninety Six to
spend the week-end. Miss Emma
Blocker also came home from her
school in Lexington for the week-end.
All of these young ladies are greatly
pleased with their work this year,
this being their first experience in
teaching after graduating from Co
ker college last summer.
Mr. Yonce urges our readers to
"buy a Ford and spend the differ
ence." His easy payment plan makes
it easy now to buy a Ford. By the
way, Mr. Yonce took a 1910 model
Ford in trade a few days ago and
sold it right away to a man who is
getting good service from it. Think
of a car 12 years old stiii rendering
good service. In 1910 that car cost
$950 at the factory, while today the
same model costs only $298 at the
factory. The present low prices put
Ford cars in reach of practically ev
ery person.
Great Bargain Sale.
The Economy Store announces in
its advertisement this week that it
will put on a great bargain sale com
mencing on Friday, November 10.
Some very great bargains will be giv
en in this sale. The Advertiser's job
department has printed some large
double-page circulars giving in detail
the very low prices. These have been
widely distributed by Mr. Jake
Wynne, the proprietor of the Econo
my Store. Do not fail to reap the
benefit of this harvest of low prices
for dependable merchandise. The sale
begins Friday of this week.
Sustained Heavy Loss.
Thursday afternoon Mr. F. F.
Rainsford lost one of his large barns
by fire. He had gathered his corn",
peas and a large quantity of fodder
and stored it in the building which
was burned, making his loss very
heavy besides the value of the build
ing. Unfortunately he carried no in
surance on the building or the con
tents. The origin of the fire is un
known. Mr. Rainsford was away at
his saw mill at the time the building
caught fire but arrived in time to
prevent the fire spreading to other
buildings.
Mc ny Are Paying Up.
Quite a number of subscribers
have responded to our request to
those who are in arrears to come in
and pay up their subscription and
we are very grateful to them for
their promptness. Our mailing list
will be corrected by next week, show
ing the proper date to which all have
recently paid. There are yet many
others whom we have indulged in
this season of financial depression
who SHOULD COME IN AND PAY
UP. We have carried them as long
as we can. To publish a paper such
a swe are making The Advertiser in
volves a heavy expense and must
urge all who are in arrears to pay up (
at once. We can not ' carry them i
longer. It is a small amount due by j
each individual but in the aggregate ]
it is a large sum that we are carry- (
ing. Will you not, if in arrears, show ]
your appreciation for our having car- <]
ried you through these hard times, ?
by coming in and paying the amount ]
you are due on subscirption? If you I
can not come to the office in person, i
send us a money order or check. ]
Your immediate attention, please, (
if you are in arrears. ]
Community Fair a Pronounced I
Success.
As this is our publication day, it
will be impossible for us to give a re
port of the Community Fair such as
it deserves. Next week we will pub
lish a complete list of the prize win
ners in every department.
Great crowds are going in and out ^
of the store in the hotel building
where the fair is being held and the
great variety and beauty of the ex
hibits in every department baffle de
scription. Mr. C. J. Balk, the florist
from Augusta who is the judge of
the flower department of the fair,
says he never saw, except on one | j,
occasion, such very fine xhrysanthe
mums as are on display at the Com
munity Fair. He stated that many
of the chrysanthemums would sell
for one dollar each in cities. Many
of our own people are amazed thein- v
selves at the beautiful display of fine s
flowers. The judges in the other de- 0
partments were Mrs. D. R. Day, Mrs. _
F. W. Miller and Mrs. P. B. Day, Jr., J
of Trenton.
The ladies are serving a bountiful
lunch today for the small sum of 50
cents, which includes admission into
the fair. We are delighted that these
good women who never grow weary
in well doing are being so generously
patronized. %
