OVER 600 FARMERS HAVE
SIGNED COTTON PLEDGES
O
Tabulation of Cotton Reduc
tion Pledges For Week
Ending March 22._
COMMITTEE MEETS
Township Cotton Acreage Reduction
Committee Unable to Make Final
Statement of Pledges
The township cotton acreage
committee met at Barnwell on
last Friday afternoon. No re
ports had been received from
townships on this important
matter. Rosemary and Willis-
ton reported a considerable re
duction, Blackville and Willis-
ton also reported material acre
age reductions. The indications
o
are that tne farmers are keenly
alive to the • critical situation
which. confronts them. They
show a spirit of unity which has
not been shown since the days
of the Farmers Alliance.
Continued from last week.

A SHOOTING AFFAIR.
Oq last Saturday, at the home
of Mr. Adams who lives ou the
pUiutatioa of Mr. Charley Dia
mond, which is about five miles
west of Barnwell, Mr. Wolford
Morris received a gunsliot
wound at the hands of Keuhen
Jacobs, according to reports re
ceived in Barnwell. The wound
ed man wag carried to the hos
pital in Augusta for medical at
tention. it is understood that
the wound is of a serious'nature
and the outcome of it is very un
certain. Although reports from
the hospital show that the intes
tines were pt*rforated' by the bul
let, yet Mr. Morris is doing as
well as could he expected and
that hopes are held for his re
covery.
The unfortunate affair seems
to have grown out of a dispute
betweenjhe two men as to cer
tain language used by Morris in
the presence of certain members
of the family. A personal alter
cation ensued between the two
men which resulted in the shoot
ing. Drs. R. A, Giles, of Black
ville, and A. B. Patterson, of
Bariiville, were in attendence on
the wounded man, who w r a9
about 22 years old.

What i-s Spring without a hat?
and—O goodness, if one could,
for once in an age, get a hat tlfat
no one else could copy ! Honest
to goodness it's-simply'disgrace-
ful the way folks are in this
town. Everybody want! to have
something like somebody else
has. For instance, uow, take
these red hats. Of course they
are just as nifty as anything
ever was, and yet there is no
pleasure in wearing one; you
see ’em everywhere you look;
but never mind about that, you
will be shown one hat in a few
days that will be right up to
date, and no one can copy That,

BARNWELL BAPTIST CHURCH.
The w’ork in this church has
opened up with good promise
after the long inaction due to
“flu” quarantines and many
other causes. Dr. Jones began
his pastorageon March 9th. His
family were moved last w r eek
into the parsonage which had
been renovated and waterworks
installed. The pantry had been
well filled by the gcod people of
the church. Their kindness was
manifested in many ways, par
ticularly in- this busy season
when they cheerfully contribu
ted the motor trucks to move his
househeld goods. At the morn
ing service on yesterday the con
gregation agreed to raise half of
the amount needed for support
and benevolence during the year
by April 30th. ’ . •
Among those in the congrega
tion of the Baptist church Stm-
dayoight wore Mn and Mrs. J.
B. Anderson, Miss Virgie An
derson, and Dr. and Mre. Har
