Mr. Smith is right, ll is Km the contention we have made for some " time. i nsi 1'residenl Harris of I lie Fanners my I'nioii issues an address lo the cotton "h producers which is prinled in this is- I sue t.| The Herald and News. lie u'>i urges wherever il is possible that the " cotton 'jtower hold liis cotton for :i higher price. lie stales thai be lias I1'i< been in a number-of the cotton producing Stales and I hat the crop is short.

Ol course, this will .help all lines, of business because il will bring more money to the South. Mr. Harris, however, iu closing his address suggests a fact which we have preached for many years, and only by the observance of this fact can a Southern coilon producer be- ' conic independent and demand and u" command a profitable pi-ice for his ' cotton. Il is now time for I lie farmer to begin lo gel ready lo put himself *'* in lliis position and we hope that M,g every farmer in Newberry county will '*" lake note of what Mr. Harris says.

Agent children, is a sufficient appeal Jo every heart. Some years ago it was suggested by Rev. Howard Crumley of Atlanta, (ja., that on the first Saturday and Sabbath of October, all those who love children set apart those days for gathering funds to relieve the needs or the fatherless. On that Saturday, let everybody old and young1, rich and poor, devote the day to the Orphanages, each man sending his gift to the Orphanage he loves the best or that lies nearest his heart. The Georgia f scheme worked well. For several |j years an effort has been made to j rouse an eipial interest in South Car- g jolina, and Alabama and Florida have Pj also taken it up. In every cominunJ ity some zealous brother might take hip the matter and push it and the i day s work from everybody would iro | to tlit* orphans. I his proposition is am not in the interest of any one orphjanage; it is intended for each one to give to the orphanage nearest his | heart. (Jive Saturday's wages to the orphans, (lather the proceeds on the M. Sabbath and forward to the ilistitn- M lions above named. It will be sure to reach the right spot, if dratfs and "~checks are made out to the name of the institution itself and provisions shipped to the same. We have 110 doubt that when an individual comj inniiity makes special request of the J railway authorities, flour and rice i and molasses or any other products JL 'would find them willing to delvicr m I without charge. Notice that this is simply a state- Jft [nienl. I rgent appeals are not nee- j/j es^ary. The orphans need help. The institutions are unable to give it. ? without the backing of the people. At this season all their treasuries are II sreally depleted. Do not overlook the Jj jday. | Mrs. Alice Robertson, TEACHER OF fj j; Voice, Piano and Harmony. _ Studio Over Mower's Store.
