The rise in the price of cotton 1
has come at the wrong time, and 1
many farmers will forget the '
lesson of the past season and ]
plant too much cotton again. (
This is another reason why you
should not. ,
"Our wagon roads throughout ]
the country," said Bill Nye, "are <
a disgrace to civilization, and i
before we undertake to supply
underwear and seal skin bibles ;
with flexible back to the Africans,
it might be well to put a
tew dollars into the relief of ,
galled horses and broken down
mules that have lost their health
on our miserable roads." Vote
Yes, Tuesday, May 4.
Every dollar that is spent for
the improvement of public roads ;
is a forward step in the march ol
progress. We don't believe that
money used for grading or in
any way improving our system
of public highways is spent in
vain. Neither do we think it is
a tax on the people, but only a
factor used in bringing about
conditions that will help the
people pay their tax. The wear
and tear of wagons and teams
and the loss of time 111 hauling
small loads over bad roads
amounts to much more than the
small amount that is necessary
to keep the roads in first class
condition, to say nothing of the
satisfaction to. be derived from
good public highways.

thus we could string out a
lengthy article telling who is
_ killing and being killed. America
has remained neutral but
there are those who are itching
for a fight. Right they are and
the time for nrtion lm? mnu
With the opening of spring the
fighting should begin in dead
earnest. Now is the time to
enlist. Join the ranks. Let every
patriotic American be aroused
to action. The enemy in ap
pearing here and there. Swat
him, and let this be the year
when a relentless warfare will be
waged on the innocent-looking
but dangerous enemy to health,
the ordinary house fly. Kill him
as he appears and destroy his
camp.
From all sections come news
of mad dogs. These reports set
one to thinking about the danger
and uneasiness to which we
are all more or less subjected
each year because so many
otherwise good people keep
worthless curs about them.
There is no disease to which
the human race is subject that
is more terrible than hydrophobia,
and every parcaution should
be taken to prevent it. Sometimes
we feel like a law making

of any kind to remain on one
premises over thirty minutes
would be a beneficial one. '
When there were deer, foxes,
coons and plenty of 'possums
and rabbits there was some excuse
for keeping; a dog, but we
challenge any man to show
good cause why he should keep
one or more mongrels about his
' premises to endanger the peace :
and safety of his family and
everybody in the community.
Then, the man who has gocd
reason to believe that his dog
has been bitten by a mad dog
but refuses to kill it is far from t
our idea of a good citizen. ,
The dog has many commendable
traits, one of which is
sfanding by his friends, but the !
time of his usefulness has about
passed. 1

CHURCH NOTES
BAPTIST, J. M. Sullivan. Pdstor.
Why do we believe in Foreign
Missions? Because our Saviour
said, "Go ye into all the world
and preach the gospel to every
creature."
Our Foreign Mission Board is
composed of forty members,
twenty-two of whom live in the
city where the board is located,
Richmond, Va., and eighteen in
the states of the Souihern Baptist
convention. One in each .
state. Dr. R. W. Lide of Darlington,
is the vice president for
our state.
We nolice some particular instructions
given hv our Lord to
Peter, John 12:15; "Feed my
lambs" verse 16; "Feed my
sheep" Luke 22:52; "Strengthen ?
thy brethren." ?
I)r. John F. Vines, Anderson,
5. C., is our vice president,
Home Missions. Rev. B. S.
Funderburg, Chesterfield Association;!!
vice president Home
Missions.
Our offering last Sunday at
Pageland was splendid, but
would have been better had we
planned, for it in advance.
We wete delighted with the
good talks by our two laymen
from Chestei field, Brethren Riv
ers ana fetUhns. Their messages B
wete both helpful and inspiring. I
We have longed for the laymen I
to speak, as people naturally ex- I
poet the "preachers" to talk E
missions, hut when the laymen E
become interested we are going I
to find it ensv to do something
really worth while. =
We enjoyed having Bro. Leon
Funderhurk with us in the evening
hour. He gave us a splendid
talk on our work in Cuba and
Panama. 1
