THREE INTERESTING SERVICES
PRESENTING SERVICE FLAGS.
There were three interesting services
on Sunday in three different
L . churches of the city, all touching war
w and the service of our boys over there
The Herald and News takes this ce\
easion to say that it regrets that the
arvnouTi cement?? of these services fail
ea to get in the Friday paper. The
copy was in hand i>ut we faile? to
reach it before the time came to close
K on copy to make the mails. We
are always pleased to print notices of
This character.
It was impossible for one person at
the same time to attend two meeting?
in two different places, so on Sunday
evening we attended the presentation
of the flag at Central Methodist
church. At the same hour a similar
vioTtuw held at the Lutheran
-Church of the Redeemer. In t\le
morning there was a flag presentation
r at West End Baptist church. All
"these services were interesting and al!
had a personal touch because there
were those present at all of the services
who had boys either over t^iere
or DreDarinir to go. and the star in
the flag liad a personal significance
to those whose boys are at the front.
The presentation at the Lutheran
* church was to have been held last
^ Sunday but the flag did not arrive in
time.
BP* H was the Baraca class at West End
V that presented the flag to the church
^ and the service was held in the morning
at 10 o'clock. Mr. Earle McCarey
is the president of the class and he
introduced Dr. Geo. B. Cromer who

ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING
IN THRIFT STAMP CAMPAIGN.
In respofise to the call of Mayor
Wright for a citizens' meeting on Friday
afternoon to consider the matter

was a very enthusiastic meeting heia
in council chambers at which some
$2,200 of the stamps were purchaser!
in short order and arrangements wer^
made for a vigorous campaign for the
j sale of the stamps throughout the
! county.
I
; An executive committee was ' ap!
pointed to conduct the campaign and
it was also arranged to have the
county divided into school districts
| &nd to offer a prize to each district of
! K for the sale of a minimum amount
. oi: stamps by the children, the trusJ
ie*.s of ea?h district to act in the conduct
of the campaign in the district.
i M
L oninuulions were sskcu uum iiivst
t
present for the prizes for the school
; districts and 28 five dollars subscriptions
were taken at the meeting.
| These are voluntary contributions to
i the school districts, the other sub!
scriptions are investments in thrift

HOGS IS DEXON ST R A T EI*. *
After the conclusion of th^ meeting
<4 the Live Stock Association in Columbia
on last Thursday there w?re
sales of hogs and in one of the sah*
according to The State three so"w?
from the Kinard's Stoc kFarm operated
by the Smiths at Kinards sold
j for $935.00. If we are not mistaken
I Mr. Pink Smith ot Ainaras nas
i charge of this farm, and he sold at
! this same sale fifty-four younger hog3
: at an average price of $133.00 each,
j The total sales of the fifty-seven hogs
I brought S8,117.00 or $142.each.
! Thev v.-ere Duroc.Jerseys and no
i * i
doubt fine hogs, but even an old ^
j scrub now. if lie is at all in condition,
i will bring good money. And with i
| the scarcity of park it would pay mora
: of our farmers to grow ccrn and ogier
| food stuff and turn it int<SStiiogs. It
] would pay as good if not better than
' and thpn it would be helniajr
i " *" ' \
I to win the war. . %
I And there is snoney in cattle grow- N
i ing at this time, anti there has always
| been money in it, If our farmers would
j only prepare to do it as itdshould be |
j done, and then the cattle would aJj
most pay their own way in the mat;
ter of improving the soil and making
| it more productive for any kind of
^)lant, and would save big fertilizer
; bills. Certainly in this favored land
I we should at all times iirow all tha^
| we need to teed man and be^, and if
: a little more, and this should in
i cluae that ^portion of the population <
\ that is en^eged in other occupations..

and there are no children at that
place. They did not lock the bam.

'the barn was on fire. The fire had
