Buy a Government bond with
some of that money you are re
ceiving for cotton. It is a better
and safer investment than inter
est bearing bank deposits. The
National Government is stronger
than any bank, the bonds pay
four per cent interest, and the
interest may be collected at any
post olfice or bank. Uncle Sam
asks for part of the surplus with
which he will fight to make our
lives and property safe. Be loyal
to your Government, or get
out from under it.

At last work has begun on the
road from Pageland to the state
line. For years this has needed
to be done, but not until now
has there seemed to be an imme
diate prospect of a good road
leading north from Pageland.
The county gang has been moved
and is now at work straightening
this road and shaping it.
Private subscriptions have been
raised, and the work is expected
to move steadily forward until
a good road is built, which
means that the old road will be
widened, straightened, rounded,
surfaced and smoothed. The
subscriptions thus far raised will
probably not be enough to complete
the work, but it is believed
that many others will join in
when they see that the work is
sho 'nuff going to be done.

Poor South Carolina! Even
Tucker admits she occupies the
lowest position in the glory of
the States column, but consoles
himself with the thought that
North Carolina is nosed from
4.1 ? ? ?
lue douom piace dv nis native
State. There is one exception,
the Pageland editor says, and
that is the pure food law, which
safeguards the health of horses
and mules. Yet there is another,
and it is a wonder Tucker hadn't
thought of it. North Carolina
leads in the number of divorces
granted annually, while South
Carolina makes a clean record
in this respect each year. The
South Carolina divorce law, you
know, was repealed in 1878, and
since then the Palmetto state
people have been coming across
the line to have the binding ties
severed. ,
We like to rile Tucker occasionally,
as we are always re
warded by something good from
his paper- He went after us in
grand style in the last issue of
his paper on the South Carolina
pure food law.
