The clouds on Saturday afternoon very much resembled snow clouds and 1 the weather was cold and the wind was blowing and there are those who say that there was some snpw. .Sunday was a beautiful day. And no snow came. The Rev. I. E. Long, a former New ? - f if- T .. berrian wfto lias been pastor 01 iae i-.utkeran church at Mooresville, X.

Don't fail to see it. Leslie is giving the citizens of Newberry a fair and square deal; just think of seeing such pictures as the Paramount, with their great list of stars, such as Geraldine Farrar, Valeska, Sur- J att, Fannie Ward, Mary Pickford and Pauline Frederick, for 5 and 10 cents, I 1 when some cities are charging 25 and j 50 cents. What the lire department needs is some member or members who will oc- j cupv rooms at the fire house. There i are good and comfortable rooms there; with all modern conveniences and will be given any member who will sleep there. Chief Wells will not permit the wagon to go out until some member is ... I there to go with it, and he is right in i this position. DEATH OF 3TR HAYIRD. Mr. Lloyd Havird died suddenly at the home of his son, Mr. W. B. Havird, | in Xewberry on Sunday morning.

'] i IVILL GRADUATE IN MEDICINE I AT UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND ! Dr. Robert H. Folk, a Newberry boy, will graduate in medicine the coming June at the University of Maryland. He graduated at Xewberrv college in the 1 ? class of Fii2. On account of his high marks and good standing he was one of | four selected to have the best choice of j hospital appointments to the university j hospital owned and operated by the it i \iTiri-1irm '.Tliic k ctrirt- i ly a medical service and lasts for one year. j Dr Folk is a son of our good friends j of the Broad river section, Mr. and j Mrs. William H.

And The Herald j and News takes pleasure in the success j which Dr. Folk has made, for his own sake and for the sake of his parents and for the sake of Newberry college of! which he is a graduate, -nd we ex-' tend our congratulations to all of them, j It is always a pleasure for us to record , the successes of our Newberry boys, wherever they go 01 wander, and the | girls as well. The Harld and News does not know where Dr. Folk will locate, j or that lie has decided, but we hope he may find opportunity and a field in his native countv and State for his chose1.! orofession. ? CAUTION. i i With the shortage of ships to move r>'ir cotton to foreign shores; with no indication of the end of the war; with : tlie nation stirred with preparedness for eventualities; with the buying power' of the entire world gradually lessening day by May, it becomes my duty to issue this formal warning as the time of planting cotton is at hand. Let everv on encourage the farmer * f ~ Kn ,.r. -No cnfr? bv raisincr Plentv tw UV. W. i Ii<v A V 0 A feed and food for his family, and his live-st-)c!:. (A calf, a pig, chickens, and :< garde 1 often mean the difference between wan; and money ahead.) Economical nndl safe living for all as well as "safe farming" must be the rule if prosperity is to abide with us. j Six-rent cotton this fall would spell disaster :n the cotton States. Low1 pricc follows over supply as certainly as the night the day. High prices and prosperrv over the South this year! proves what reduction of cotton acreage' dees. Any marked increase in acreage: over last \ear is going to result in great ^ loss t<> Southern cotton producers, me/-, chants, and bankers, and will similarly i affect all allied business and professions.

The old bell was hammered good and strong and 11 few pistol shots were given and the firemen responded as readily as triey j could and when they reached the fire > did good and quick and efficient work, j The fire was in the wooden building at the corner of Nance and Friend streets, owned by Dr. C. E. Stephenson Df Columbia and occupied by Jas. Gall man. The Rev. Samuel Nance and Dr. J. L. Duckett had offices up stairs. The adjoining building, a one story wooden structure, is owned by Langford Broth-j ;rs and occupied by Eichelberger as a ish and light grocery store. Those who first saw the fire and gave :he alarm say that it originated in the jpstairs room of the Stephenson buildng, occupicd by Nance, and it is supposed from an oil stove. The fire was blazing out the roof beai-fiv^d. but the build . <^>1 V *11 VM.V.. ? nsr was saved except the roof. I^ang:ord Brothers' building was only slighty damaged. Stephenson had $600.00 insurance on be building. iT:he Langford building ivas also insured. J it- u-ns fortunate that the wind was ' lot blowing and that the little that was j -arried the blaze away from the wooden , :tr-?ctiires around that corner. Or there ' J night have been a very disastrous tire. 1 j hIRMNO WITH WATER POWER My father had a tish pond on a small itream about three hundred yards from he house, the overflow from which had \ fall of eight feet in \liameter and * t 1 ran a wire belt from tfte water wneei to \ shaft on the back porch at the house. The belt runs on a line of poles and through ordinary sash pulleys. I took i bevel gear from an old cultivator by ,vhich I hitched the churn to one end of he shaft on the porch, with means for hrowing the churn in and out of j$ar. k\. the other end of the shaft I arfltn- j fed to run a small grist mill for cr^ck- ? ng corn for poultry and grinding | -- r-_ it. ^ || fms ior mc uu:c. . . .

Fretwell has put the road | from Anderson to Sunset Forest in! splendid shape." stated Judge Quattle-1 baum yesterday. "Ihis was done by j means of the split log drag and it is as . good as can be found anywhere." S-> the fame and value of the split! log drag has spread to Anderson. The J Harald and News is the pioneer in! I South Carolina in the advocacy of the j effectiveness of the gentleman. The: drag will do just what Mr. Fretwell | says. The wonder and the pity of it is j that it seems impossible to convince j more people of the value of the drag.! * . j ' Ac know several roads in Xewberry J county where it could be used to great j advantage and benefit and at a very ^ small cost to any one. That was a terrible accident at Spar- j tanburg the other day when the automo- . bile of iK'.rs. <A. H. Twichell and a Southern railway train collided at a grade crossing. Mrs. Twichell was Miss Janie Rivers and at one time was connected with the Spartanburg Herald and went; >1'' I with us on a press trip. She is a bright sweet little woman and we hope that | * i the accident will not prove fatal. Spar-; tanburg and the Southern railway will no doubt now make some provision to * have the grad^ crossings guarded or re-! moved. Somehow it seems that it takes} some such terrible accident to get our . i people to take (he pracautions they' should. Every grade crossing should j be removed, especially where traffic is | heavy.
