There has been talk of an effort
to abolish the county-tocounty
state campaign in South
Carolina. Governor Blease announces
that he will make the
rounds and speak in every county
in the state whether the ether
candidates do or not.
It was a surprise to us to find
in yesterday's Charlotte Observer
Mr. R. F. Beasley's announcement
as a candidate for Robt N.
Page's seat in congress as a representative
from the seventh
North Carolina district. Mr.
Beasley has more than once vigorously
attacked Page's record in
congress, but we were not prepared
for the news that he would
make the race against him.
Mr. Beasley is one of North
Carolina's deepest thinkers, and
as a former resident of his district
we would like to see-him
. go up to Washington as a representative
of the best section of
North Carolina.
More fertilizer has been sold
in South Carolina this year than
ever before. Now, what do vou
think of that? We had hoped
that the people of the State had
seen the evil of gambling with
fertilizers, but not so.
They are betting more heavily
_. _ thm ran lake this fertilizer
and rob the earth of enough of
her plant food to pay for the ferilizer.
Overlooking the fact
that the Creator has placed tons
. and tons of the very best fertilizer
right over each acre, we buy
high priced fertilizer, pay freight
on it, haul it and distribute it
1 - - -1
uvci uui ueius, Hoping inereoy
to make them rich and to grow
bountiful crops. When we realize
that commercial fertilizer
will never make land rich and
begin to fill the soil with vegetable
matter, we'll cut the fertilizer
bill in half and m. ke better
crops too. Nearly every man
makes enough to pay his fertilizer
bill, but how long are we
going to labor year after year
for the fertilizer manufacturer?
Very few small towns have
any sanitary regulations that are
effective until the soil of the
whole town is polluted with
filth and then the regulations
nrn nnf
uik ii\/i ?uiiu very mucn.
Pageland has been remarkably
free from diseases caused by unsanitary
conditions, but the time
has come when more effective
rules are necessary that this enviable
record may be maintained.
We learn that the town
officials are about to undertake
some very important moves in
regard to sanitation here, and
we write this that you may not
be taken off your feet when you
are asked to do a few simple
though important things to safeguard
the health of the people
who live in Pageland now and
who mav live here in the years
to come.
The ooil here is very porous
I it "
anu ine wens are very shallow.
These facts make it necessary
that the soil be kept as free from
pollution as possible. Fly time
is here-again, and our people are
entitled to protection from these
dangerous little filth carriers.
We shall not here go into the
details of the steps to be taken, ,
but we earnestly ask the cooper- \
ation of every citizen of the 1
. ff
own in the work to be under- 1
aken by the men. you have
sleeted to office. If you are ask- 1
jd to do things that at first seem 1
to you menial or useless, remem- ;
t>er that those who are behind
the move can have no ax to
?rind and that it is for the good
of all that the work is undertaken.
CHURCH NOTES
Baptist
J. M. Sullivan. Pastor.
One of these Sundavs we hope
to be entirely well and fill our
appointments and be our real
self again. We have no apology
to make about anything we have
said about that "hateful" old
malady called "grip." Because
he has not ?nly kept us from
preaching but he has kept us from
hearing others. Last Sunday
evening being fresh in our mind
when we so much desired to
hear the presiding Elder Massabeau,
but could not.
Inasmuch as last Sunday's
Sunday school lesson lingers in
our mind we must say just a
word Vetses 26 and 27. modern
izing just a little, we fear that
many good (?) church members
will say, "Lord you don't know
us; we were baptized into the
fellowship of such a church on
a certain day in a certain month
in a certain year and we were always
present on communion
Sundays dressed in our best
"slit" skirt and gold band on our
leg or that best tailored suit
with diamond ring on our finger,
and we were just as graceful
as we could be, and also we
looked "long faced" and pious
as we could, having just as
much a "form" of godliness as it
was possible for us to have.
Lord it does seem so strange
that you can't remember us
when we always sang in the
choir or sat near the front and
when our pastor gave largely of
his salary to Missions we gave|
a 5 cents piece (one dollar to
^hoNY.andj?^e^Sui:e week b'ilort)
to help save the world because]
we believed (?) they were lost
and ruined without the Gospel."
Union meeting meets with
Union Hill church next Friday
and Saturday, also services Sunday
11 o'clock a. m.
White Plains next Sunday 3.30
p. m. Pageland 8 p. m. We hope
to have some one to preach for
us at these services.
Methodist Episcopal
By Rev. J A. Mcuraw,
We failed to go to Mt. Croghan
last Sunday morning, on
account ot the weather. This is
the third Sunday in five years
that we have failed to be at our
appointed service. Each time we
laid the blame on the snow.
All our churches were not represented
at Zion last Saturday
but we had a splended report
from those that were there. How
ever^our Jefferson hretheren did
us one better for which we do
not envey them- The Zion
friends had an abundant dinner
on hand and although the weather
was disagreeable our joint
quarterly conference was a
pleasant occasion.
Bro. Massabeau preached for
us at Zion in the afternoon and
at Pageland at night last Sunday,
and his sermons were fine.
A full and competent choir
rendered unusually good music
Sunday night, Miss Wright presiding
at the organ.
The following have been elected
delegates to the district conference
which meets in Bennetts
ville on April 7-9, P. H. Arant,
W. J. Rayfield, N. V. Carnes,
A. M. Agertonand J. II. Rivers.
Next Sunday at 11 o'clock we

origin, nature, purpose, benefits
and elegibility of the sacraments
after which the Ixmi's supper
will he administered. All who
love God are invited to join with
the congregation in this celebration.
And whether or not a per
son joins with us in the celebration
wf are especiqly anxious
that all shall coine out and ha

We hope that |the ladies wittJ
not let the matter of fixing din-1
tier keep them from church next Ij
Sunday fhorning. We may
never preach here again on the 8
nature of the sacraments. Let) s
them come with the men and ^
children, all.
We will preach next Sunday i
afternoon at Center Grove j
school house at 3:30 o'clock.
