We are sorry to know that Mrs. Henry Price has been very ill for the past few days, but glad to learn that she is some better now. We ar<=> glad to know that Mr. Hamp Lybrand is able to be oat again. We are glad to know that Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Long are able to be out again. Mr. D. L. Taylor will soon have his houso completed, Mr Reubiu Taylor was in Leesville Saturday. Mr. Cally Taylor was the guest of his brother Saturday night. Mr. Olaodie Taylor and his brother, Oallie, spent a short while in Leesviile Friday. Times had got somewhat quiet until the power house got in full bloom on the old Augusta and Charleston road. We have a few neoDle that caL. rule the county or it looks that way anyhow, but the Great Ruler is over and above all, who is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. If that would have been a ehuroh house they would not have got the members in the course of ten years as they have members in the power plant, and if people can vote out whiskey from being sold in a dis-v pensary and get a dry country, the people ought to think that we conld do without the power plant. Whiskey i9 carrying more young and old men to the graveyaid than buck shot. Young men and young women and old men and old wemen, if you never have prayed before pray for God to move Satan'9 power plants out of our o?nrtv fnr if, is in the neighborhood of about eight churches. We do not know who are the Deacons of these churches but we know tbey have members who patronize the power house. It is horrible to think of the curse of drink. It will drag mother's boys estray in front of their eyes; it causes dear mother to go to her grave in sorrow and shame, save our dear bo} s from tne curse of strong drink.
