The Herald and News filtered at the Postoffice it *^wfc t f9 s. C., as 2?d class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday. October 24, 1913. l ? The State fair begins next Monday. The price of cotton is good and nearly every one has made a fairly good crop. There should be a great reunion of the people of South Carolina in Columbia next week. How would it do to have a get-together banquet in Newberry right after the State fair. The Herald and News is going to suggest such a meeting the first week in November. No one is to be urg-d to attend or begged to 2:: ve his Dresence and his influence, but it is to be a strictly voluntary affair and no one is wanted unless he really means to lay aside iis little hammer and get together for the advancement and the uplift of the community. In order for a town to grow and prosper there must be unity of sentiment for the advance and unity of effort for toe betterment of the community. We are just putting you on notice now that the meeting is to tfe called and it will be held provided that as many as thirteen men respond. The minimum is to be thirteen. If there are not thirteen men in the town who are willing to stick together in everything that is for the >? progress of the town then tine meeting will not be held, but if the thirteen can be found the dinner will be had and certain things laid out for the thirteen to unite in an effort to accomplish something. But ds tails later. Think about it * What about those improvements at Uie cemetery? We have seen no efforts being made that looked like doing anything. It is time to get a move. We like to do things.

Like the "doc'' in the verse above, he "quickly ripped the basting threads," recovered the scissors and again sew- j ed up the wound, only to realize that ; several other surgical implement^ { were* still carelessly mixed up in ' the patient's internal mechanism. Again did the physician carefully remove the silk threads, recovered the : instruments and for the third time executed a neat embroidery pattern across the sufferer's stomach.
