jjfte jerom onD Jems.; Entered at the Postoffice at New- j Ihtj, S. C., as 2nd class matter, j E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Tuesday, September 21, 1915. SOME CHANGES. As we announced some time ago, Mr. R. H. Greneker is now with the Observer. MV James L. Aull, who was with us for several months, has gone > to Columbia. It has left us a little short of force, but we will get things j straightened out soon. Owing to all; 41 1 nunntiAolliT of t Vl O xne cnanges cumiug *?., >.~~ same time it has to some extent dis\ arranged matters, but we will continue to give you a good newspaper. Mr. E. F. Hammond, an expert operator, is still at the linotype. We have with us one more of the Sligh dovs. We trained all three of them and we are proud of the record they have made. We are going to make out of the one that is left the best of the three. The other two are making more money than a country office can afford to pay, and we are glad they are. We always advise those vho have worked ffkr us to take other Dlaces when they can get more money. We did think it would have been 'better for our boy to have remained here; and we are sorry he lias gone, but we hope he will do well and that he has made no mistake. Mr T. E. Wicker will help us with the Dersonal and local column:, anj if you have any items of news we will be glad for you to give them to nim. He will appreciate it and we will too. The editor is still here, and expects to remain in Newberry, and will be on the job all the time. We have been on this paper longer than any one who ever worked on it, except, possibly, Mr. j H. M. Barger who is still with us. ? The point is this, if it has a point, is that we want our friends to know that we intend to make The Herald and News a better paper with each issue, if it is possible. Not the sest paper in South Carolina, or even the next best paper, but the best paper that i we can mase. We feel that we can say that we nave the capacity to make a gooc paper, and every inch of energy that we have i? gonig to he devoted to The Herald and News. We dislike to have so much to say about ourselves, but owing to the many and sudden changes which have taken place, w*e feel that it is due to make a statement. We promise not to +?-v mattprs vArv often. It is iTJICl IV/ umv,v w _ due to say that all the changes that have taken place have been pleasant \ and all parties are good friends. (There ? was no misunderstanding or any unpleasantness. Don t forget that until October lo we are selling The Herald and News at $1.19 for one year. No subscfipaion taken for less than one year at that ? L~ 3 ~^ toton aftcr ThA date J. aie, O.L1U UUUC Lti.xiv.ii -- mentioned. We want to get the paper \ on the cash in advance system once more. We are by this offer giving to i the subscriber the commission we pay to agents and solicitors for collecting. Do not delay, but come along and get | the paper for one year for only $1.19. j We appreciate the many kind words that we have received, and the patronage of the people of Newberry county, and hope to deserve it. We will do the best we can to deserve it. No perfect man, or one who feels that he approaches perfection, or one who never admits that he makes a mistake, has ever been permitted to work in this office. It is positively against our rules. The Herald and News is ready ana willing at all times to help any worthy cause, and will at all times stand for ^he advancement of this community. No enterprise has ever been undertaken in this community that did not have j our support and encouragement. Thej community has been good to us and i ve have only done our duty in standing! .'or the advancement of the community.! ' WliKKL KISSING IS POPl LAK." | The Chronicle editor threatened to' publish the name oi a certain youiiu lan who was seen hugging and kissing a girl in the" park unless his subscription to the paper was paid up in a. week. Fifty-nine young men called and paid up the next day^ while two \ even paid a year in advance.?Edgffield Chronicle. p; A certain young man was seen hug- H ging and kissing a girl in the park, tc Now please don't ask the reporter the b] names of the couple, as he wouldn't d; lita t/-? tall linloec npppssarv LiOCal I)' I tv kV/il VtliiVWk/ v ^ ; Reporter in Observer. n.1 I What we would like to know is what w I these two old bachelors were doing tl hanging around the parks watching the L boys and girls enjoying themselves. v>. And what do they know anyway about n this business. Better go off and gei a. 1 o you a sweet little wife ana jive. The County of Newberry has raised imore to eat this year than ;n a good tl many yeaj-s. With the price of cotton above ten cents a great many debts ^ should be paid, and the condition of the b; people much better than it has been in it a good many years, in a financial way. *3 a There is a better feeling among the ^ people. That means that business will be better. The Herald and News said t] some weeks ago that one thing we needed more than any of&er was a! spirit of optimism. Of course, when ! i c business is bad and the prospect is not, _ I L bright it is a little difficult to be opti- ] mistic. But the spirit of optimism has p come and business is going to be good.! o Let us have coloperation of all inter- j = i c ests. Money is easier. The rarmer can ^ borrow on his cotton and pay his debts and hold for a higher price which is sure to come. ? jd The* Newberry Herald and News an- R nounces that for the next thirty days fi a year's subscription to that journal tl may be had for $1.19.

And i84 t< then, too, it seems to us that we remember that we read somewhere once ' that each one of these old dollar bills had'some 99,999 germs to the bill and we want to pass some of them on to our creditors. It will help to kill the ^ I germs and preserve the helath of tne, ; individual. 4 1 > <$> > COLLEGE NOTES. <0! $> <i> The Y. M. C.
