Ero:kland News,
To the Editor of the Dbpatch:
As it has b>en sometime since an j
article has been contiibuted from the
metropolis of the county to your
valuable paper we take the liberty cf
giving you a few dots, hoping they
will escape the waste basket.
We would not have your many subscribers
think for one in; ni'-nt that
we are living all to ourselvss by our j
long silence; we are here, and are
still keeping abrea3t in the age of
progrcssivene3s. Each day signs of
progress can be seen, citizenship bo/v-kminor
rvmra diimified. demands for
o
stores, and homes being in excess to
the supply, purchasing of lots still
in great demand and erection of
beautiful houses and cjttages ail
tend to prove that we are on the onward
march in the liue of progress.
Our town today ei j >ys a boom the
like of which she has never experienced.
Never in her history has
there been such increasing demand
as confronts her for stores and homes
to supply her people with the necessaries
of life and comforts. Only a
few months ago stores were at a discount,
now, since the erection of
some fifty or more cottages with an
increase of population the supply
does not -meet the demand. Merchants
in other sections are keen to
engage in business, and today varied
articles are for sale, thus keeping the
money realized within our own
borders. True it can be said that
i ji i. _
improvement ot every Kina can ue
seen, already tha ring of the anvil
and the shrill sound of the whistle
can be heard. The Hagood MTg.
Co., is taxed to its utmost. Only a
few years ago did this enterpiise
begin and the patronage was so
small as not to guarantee a sufficient
dividend to continue operation. Today
this company has increaeed its
plant, giving employment to many
in the manufacture of building material,
indeed, it can b9 said that
! from the increasing demand for material
this company will have to increase
its capacity to meet the continuing
demands of th9 public. Mr.
E. E. Hagood, the manager is a
wide-awake, up to-date business man
and his push in this enterprise is
very commendab'e.
It cently the Town officials have
i been struck with an idea to keep
apace with the progress that is going
on. Oar town hall is entirely out of
date. W.e need a larger and better
arranged hall. With the increase of
population, most invariably disorderly
characters will seek refuge, and expansion
now being the cry of the
times, our city farthers at an early
date will erect a two story brick
buildiog of more modern style.
W. M. Corley, the newly appointed
Magistrate, makes a first rate judge.
He has already had several cases
and in each instance be has proven
himself thoroughly familiar with the
law in meeting out justice to his
prisoners.
The Brookland High School under
n /
the efficient management of Prof. J.
S. Derrick, assisted by Miss May
Shull, is in a flourishing condition.
More than 130 pupils have been enrolled
this session.
Once more the P. 0. will change
hands. It has been the custom
heretofore to have gentlemen at the
head of its management, but on
February 1st, the office will be presided
over by one of the fair sex.
Miss Hattie Haws will be post
mistress and we predict during her
term of office less accumulation of
mail and unnecessary advertisement,
for mail is sure to be called for and
we know will be grateiuuy distributed.
. Mr. Harwell Roof and Miss Geneva
Price were married on last Thursday
evening in the Lutheran church,

Roof assisted by Rev. E. L Lybrand

While the wise men of the Slate
are now racking their brain in the
formation of new laws and the revision
of the old ons, it may be well
to say that the people of the State
are watching with interest the qiestions
at issue, for instance, the tire
bill and the marriageable license bill
is commented upon by semi of our
farmers and younger generation, all
to which we say there are p'am tires,
cushion tires and pneumatic tire,
but the most common tire that is
being now discussed and "cussed"
ever the State is the new Mauldin
broad wagon tire.
A few days ago some one stole Mr.
Hainp Caughman's watch, pistol, &2.,
but awake to the loafers here, Mr.
1 Ciughman suspected guilty partit.3
and put detectives on trail which resuited
in the arrest of Pornpsy Taylor
and Ned Howell. Mr. Caughman
s will prosecute both parties to the
1 full extent of the law.

II inn in an 1 family. Mr. Harman

A constant reader of the Disiiatcb,
but who does not subscribe and pay
for it, was taught a lesson the other
day when he went to borrow his
neighbor's piper that, all borrowers
should learn and profit by. He was
told that it was time for him to plank
down his own cart wheel and have
the Dispatch sent to his address for
a year and not sponge cn bis neighbor
for news.
Mr. Luther Long, the town's Digbt
watchman, lays no claims to a forecaster
of the weather, in fact he is
neither a prophet nor the son of a
prophet, but he kuows cold weather
when he feels it, and he affirms that
he felt it Monday night while on
duty. lie deponeth that it was the
coldest night of the winter, too cold
for fire : .rn and he had to eat ice

in a sudden chill, which if not

whole system will be heated and the
danger of cold avoided. Avoid substitutes,

operation of the free mail delivery,
but will be a great convenience to its
patrons as a place where stamps can
be purchased, letters registered, etc.,
which is greatly needed in that section
of the county.
