E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at .qTew berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday, May 4, 1909. The election on the issue of bonds for the extension of the sewerage will be held on the 18th of this month. In order to vote in this election it is necessary to have a new town reg istration certificate. The Herald and News called atten tion to this matter sometime ago. The city ecuncil gave notice that the books of registration would be open ed for this purpose for ten days, and the ten days for the opening of these bcks closes today. Yesterday less than 100 voters had registered. This is a very important matter, and you must have your town registration in order to vote, and if you do not get it today, you cannot vote in this election. In order to secure a town registra tion you must produce your State reg istration certificate, and also your tax receipt. Mr. 0. L. Buzhardt, the registra tion officer, will be in his offine all day today, and you had better attend to this matter while you think of it. FOR FORTY YEARS. The Herald and News is proud of its friends and especially those who have proved their words by their deeds. We have in our office bound volumes of The Herald and News and its predecessors back to 1859. We have subscribers on our mailing list whose names have been there for - many years and whose names are still there since we adopted the cash plan. When we went on the cash basis we parted with some who had had their names on our mailing list for many years. In appreciation of our kind ness in sending t-he paper without pay for so many years they became angry and immediately proceeded to take some other paper,or none at all. These friends are' not worth much in 'times of trouble, but we wish them well. We received the following letter tihe other day and we appreciate the kind friend and assure those who read it that Mr. Bedenbaugh is a young man. He started in the right direc tion in his youth and has not depart ed therefrom: Prosperity, S. C., Apr. 29, '09. Mr. E. H. AuIl, Newberry, S. C. Dear Sir: Enclosed please find check for $1.50, my renewal subscrip tion to Herald and News, beginning May 1st, 1909. I first subscribed to The Herald in 1869, and this will make 40 years for me, not so had for a young 'man! Sineerely, Z. W. Bedenbaugh. Forty years is a long time and yet looking backward it does not seem so long. For more than half that time t!bc present editor has been in charge and it seems only last year that we started. In order to vote in the election on the issue of bonds for the extension of the sewerage, it is necessary to have a registration certificate from the town. Today is the last oppor tunity to secure such certificate. Get x your registration at once. THE CIVIC ASSOCIATION. In its appeal for the cooperation of men and women in the movement "for a more beautiful America,'' the American Civic association asks: "'What are you doing to improve and beautify your town?i "Are you planting trees and mak ing parks which will be God-sends to your city later? "Are you trying to make your .property owners keep their yards clean? "Are you preventing the accumu lation of unsightly heaps of ashes and rubbish, encouraging the making of ga'rdens, destroying tihe filth, whieh not only is an annoyance to the eve but also is a menace .to hiealt'h? "Are you endeavoring to stop the erection of unsightly billboards, and immoral posters calculated to debase the mind of the young or tweak? "Are y.ou helping your schl 0 chil dren by enltiva ting in them a loxe for the beau!tiful andl pratical .in life? "The American Civic assoe.iation ' stands ready to help you in these tarings as far as it can. Speaking for Anderson. we can say that our .people are doing very well. The local branch of the Civic association has worked wonders for Anderson. All of us who are living here today can see and appreviate it, benefits. but those who come after us will be the greatest beneficiaries. The work that has already been done toward making Anderson a city beau tiful can well be fruitful for scores of years, and the work is still in pro gress. Anderson is a more beautiful eity now than it was a few years ago, and it will be a more beautiful city in the years to come than it is now, and this is all due to the intelligent and devoted efforts of our Civic asso eiation and the cordial support that organization has received.-Ander son Mail. And we too can say that Anderson is doing very well but then Ander son has a woman who is full energy and is not easily discou,raged and as the head of the Civic association of that city has done a great deal to make Anderson one of the neatest and prettiest cities in the State. Be fore the -work undertaken by the Civ ic association the public square was a wagon yard when it was not too eep in red clay for tihe ,wagons to stand there with safety. Now the wagon yard is removed from the pub tic square and it has been turned in o a beautiful park. The Civic association in Newberry s working along the same lines and ;hould have the aid and encourage nent of all of our people. Anderson is more beautiful now ;han it has been for years because of ;he untiring efforts of the Civic as ;oeiation. We say this for encouragement of ,ose connected with our Civic asso :iation and we hope they will con inure to work even though often ;imes in the face of open opposition. Register today for the election on :he issue of bon.ds for the extension f sewerage. Why not investigate and discover wha.t the real trouble at Clemson is? he institution is .too big and .re'pre sents too mueh to be left to news paper correspondence to settle. If there is anything wrong lets have it out. If there is nothing wrong, lets say so and be done with it. If this cannot be brought about in any other way, why not call upon the Clemson alumni to come together and demand that the credit and peace and efficiency of their Alma Mater be left undisturbed '?-Piedmont. That proposition is alright but it will scarcely be necessary as it is sarcely possible the board of trus tees will fail o~r decline to investigate affairs and endeavor to straighten matters out. It should be done by the oard. It cannot be done by the newspapers. HON. B. R. TTLTMA.N AND THE UNITED STATES SENATE. Some of ethe newspapers aire be ginning to name a successor to Sen ator Tillman, 'should that distinguish ed gentleman decide not to stand for re-election. This is a case of counting ehikens before they are hatehed. Tillman 's ihealth is improving, and lie will stand for re-election and wvill go back to the senate without oppo sition as he did before. There was a time when we believed Tillman eould have been beaten, but that time is past. He has made himself a fix tre, so recognized all over the Union. But should he not stand for the sen ate again, we agree with the Orange burg Times and Democrat that Con gressm'an Lever will be a strong can didate to succeed him. Lever has worked hard and faithful, and de serves promotion.-Manning Times. it is true that Mr. Tillman has de veloped rapidly since he entered the senate and is a prominent figure in American politics. He does things and says things that many in his own State do not approve. But he has become a man of much influence in affairs of state at Washington. And it is true that Carolina will re turn him to the senate as often as he wishes t'hat to be done. But, if the good Carolinians will accept the intimation, if Mr. Tillman should not 'wish to go the senate again, there are many persons in the South who would be pleased if Ca.r olina would honor Editor Hemphill, of Charleston. witih a seat in the American lords.-Augusta Chronicle. Editor Hemiphill would fill the bill with credit to himself and his State. bt in thle first place Mr. Tillman is notigongm to retire and in the seond THEC RESOI Loans and Discount Furniture and Fixtui Overdrafts - - Cash on Hand anc Banks - - UNDER SI 401 Intei C.

Yes, 'I some times read advertisements. You know' it depends largely on what you put in your advertisements'whether they 'are read. But I did not start out to lecture on advertising. It is the sub ject matter of this particular adver tise'ment. It was a bank advertise ment and contained ?a quotation from Nelson Morris, the Chicago million Iaire packer. The 'head line ran ''$5 a month can Imake a man rich.'' Now most anybody can make $5 a month but it is the man who can save $5 a month who gets rieh. Now, I don't believe in 'making money just to save it 'but there is a simple les son in bookkeeping that every young. man ought to learn as soon as lhe is~ 'old enough to spend or make money. That lesson is always to spend less than he earns. -0 The great .trouble with every young rperson starting in life is to save the first $100, but ii this little rule I have given is learned and practiced then the foundation for success is laid. -0 But I rwant to tell you how this Chicago millionaire made his millions on a start of $5 a month. It is worth~ quoting in this col'umn and is good stuff for a bank advertisement. Here: is wihat ~he says: ''I begani my career at a wage of' my board and $5 a month. I 'had saved $35 at tihe end of the first year and then I went into business for my self. ''Young man, it is the easiest thing in the world, this making money. All you need is resolution to spend less than you make and a cheerful dis position that will permit of no dis-, couragement to turn you aside from your purpose.'' ''Now go to work and aim for the highest place in your business. You! can get there if you 'honestly try. But whlatever you do, do it honestly.' That is good advice, ain't it? If you don't start right, though, it will be mighty hard to follow this advice after you get old.

Hi.pp, of Pomaria, was in Newberry the other day. I mean Mose Hipp. Just how they get Mose out of W. Q. I don't know but I do know that he is better known as Mose Hipp. Well, you know this is the same Mose Hipp who claimed that he had a chicken hen 26 years old and The Herald and News published it as if it were true, and it may have been. The editor printed a picture of this hen and Mose. The poor aged hen has since died a natural deatih and was given a hristian burial by Mose. He says that is true and, therefore, it cannot be true as the editor of the Ander son Mail stated at the time, that 'he had just eaten that hen at the New berry hotel. That was before Alex. Brown had charge of the hotel. So much for the hen and by way of in troduction. -o When Mose was in town the other day I heard h.im telling the editor that he had a white oak tree in the corner of his yard that was 106 years old and he knew it, that he could trace its history back that far and he gave -the names of his authority, but I think they are all dead now. But Mose says that tree two feet above the ground measures 27 feet in cir cumference or 9 feet in diameter and that it is not like 'the trees of Cali fornia, 'hollow in the centre, but that it is solid. And the editor said he was going down to Moses's and see it and take a ~picture of it. Well, I hope he and Mose will take somebody along to verify what the editor has to say about it when he comes back. -o Just measure off 9 feet and then look at some of these big oaks about here and see how far under 9 feet they are in diameter. Then you can have some idea how big a tree 9 feet in diameter is. Mose says its t'he big gest tree in the State and I guess he is correct. Mose is a big hearted good fello'w and everybody likes him.
