The Pageland Journal j Published Wednesday Mornings C. M. Tucker, Proprietor Subscription Price - - $1.00 Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Pageland, S. C., under the Postal Act of March 3, 1879. January 27, 1915 The Bradford bill tequiring county boards of commissioners to license dealers in pistol and rifle cartridges was passed by the house Monday night without opposition. A bill has passed the house of representatives to authorize moving pictures in the public schools of South Carolina,- but 17 of the 44 counties are exempted. ? m - The acreage bill passed by the extra session of the legislature last fall will likely be repealed by the regular session. The vote in the house was taken Monday night, and 81 representatives voted to repeal the act and 22 voted against the repeal. The two "Chesterfield representatives voted against the repeal. Prohibition is gaining ground in South Carolina. State-wide prohibition is only a question of time. The "matter will in all probability be submitted to the voters in an election next summer. The present house of representatives seems to be very strongly in favor of the prohibition measures being introduced ;? A ? ?? aii mat uuuj / Y VV t'UI) LUW act was passed early this week, which requires persons or firms to get permits from the clerk of court in their counties befoie they can order liquor from any point without the State. The permit must be affixed to shipments of liquor as authorization ?my UJiliiiion 1 ief -iflrt1 lawfully transport them into South Carolina. ? Sorgum, or just common cane, is a crop that may be grown by the farmers is this section for forage and for molasses. It is easily cultivated and quickly harvested for feed. Its excellent qualities as a feed are recogniz ed by a rapidly increasing number of farmers, and it is probable that much more will be grown this year. The scarcity of cane mills is probably responsible for the limited acreage planted each year for molasses. More mills are needed Tlmm :o . .ivlk 13 ^UUll reason whv the shipments of molasses and syrup from other states should be stopped. This section should sell molasses instead of buying:. The farmers have not learned to appreciate the value of the uane seea. l lie seed are worth as much or more than corn as a feed, and everyone knows how high and scarce planting seed are in the spring. Cane seed may be threshed easily and satisfactorily on an ordinary thresher. What good reason then can be given for buying high priced seed from other markets.-'. "Daddy" Huggins Ir the "County News" column of the Marshville Home last week appeared the usual "Ches terfield county" and the credit to the "Pageland Journal" but the news w?? not thorn in the editorial column was this declaration "We can do a whole tot for this town in 1914?if we try." In the local colurhn, however* was the explanation of these . errors. It read as follows: "Born to Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Huggins Saturday, a daughter, Lil Kirk Huggins." /I . ??'! CHURCH NOTES METHODIST EPISCOPAL J. A. McGraw, pastor Although the weather was very threatening and disagreeable yet a nice congregation met us at Zion last Sunday and of course went home in the cold rain. We are constantly being put under renewed obligation^ of gratitude to our friends but last Friday night a number of our Pageland friends with some from out of town, came to the parsonage with packages of pantry supplies and thus our obligations for gratitude were deepened. The next day one of our Baptist members, whom we divide with Bro. Purvis, gave us a bag ot corn. This brother has been a close friend of ours since K., i u:? IlilVC M1UW11 II1111. One of our members told us that "They" did not let him know anything of the purpose to pound the preacher, therefore he was treated mean. That sounds like the parsonage household was treated badly too, to that extent We will appreciate "him" and forgive "them" all the same and endeavor to do our best toward all. Next Sunday we will be at Mi. Croghan at 11 a. m. and at Pa; eland at 7:15 p. m. The board of circuit Stewards will meet at Pageland on Febru ary Pub at 11 o'clock. BAPTIST, J. M. Su'liv in. Pnsior.
