AULL, EDITOR, Tuesday, June 24, 1919. f We notice that Senator Dial has sent Vice-President Marshall a large country cured ham from Laur rens. That is nice* but we are very sure if Senator Dial just could be told how fond this editor is of country ham he would have sent one this way also, , We are satisfied that Col. John F. Hobbs, like us, will be pleased to j learn that the report we had here! few days agb of his sudden death is not or was not based on facts. We did not believe it at the time we heard it, becauses we were satisfied that if there had been any truth in it he would have notified us. ? A letter from him under date of June IB says that he has gone to his home in the Catskills for the summer and that his address for the time being is N. Y. The Herald and ' News editor wishes very much that he was in position to accept his very kind invitation to spend the summer with him in the mountains, but we have to keep the hopper full so that the mill may grind. The Press Association meets in Greenville just one day before the nation-wide drought sets in. So it I might have been worse.?Edgefield Advertiser. i "Oh! I see!" We have been wonderiner whv the time for the meeting | of the association had been fixed | for Monday, something very unusual. In fact this is the first time we recall that the opening of the, meeting was | set for Monday, but President Mims' lets the "cat out of the bag," it is the last day before the drouth and he wants to give the boys a chance, and j he a prohibitionist. What do you' aknnf +V10+? Well WO arp VPTU i AJL1VS w auvuv MIUV TV VA?) tf V M&V ? V* j j much afraid even with this delighti ful information that we will not be able to be present at the opening, j We can scarcely get away from the. office here on Monday. Here's hop- ( ing the boys may enjoy it and have one more good old time. And, "So it might have been worse." "NEWBERRY, LET'S XPULL TO-1 GETHER." j % " r / 1 "If you want to live in the kind of a town like the kind of a town you liKe, i You needn't slip your clothes in a j grip and start on a long, long hike. You'll only find what you left behind For there's nothing that's really new, It's a knock at yourself When you knock your towfc, It isnt your town?it's you. "Newberry, let's pull together." t A few days ago me found the above written on a niece of paper, slipped under our office door. We found afterwards that it was written and placed there by a friend, and one "who is a good booster for Newberry, and he travels about the State a good deal, and has opportunity to do a little boosting that is really worth, while, and he dos not fail to do it.; And the motto he suggests, and which we have used as a title for this article, is a good one. Why not every one adopt it? j To tell the truth we did not know whether he meant to be personal and to indicate that may be he thought The Herald and News was a knocker i or not. There are some people who do not know any better, who conclude that one is a knocker, especially a news- j paper, if it should have the temerity to point out some of the things that should be done, and should not hap-j pen to agree with all that is done,' and has the boldness to say so, that it is knocking. Well, this friend said he did not refer to The Herald and News at all, but wanted The Herald and News to tell those citizens who are all the time finding fault with the town and the men and women c | who live in it, to read the lines above | and to take good note of them, and then t? adopt the motto he suggests. We take pleasure in calling attention j to what our friend says, and to add; that The Herald and News has said, ten thousand good things about the | town and the people to one where it has found things to criticise, and all the criticism is for the ultimate good J of the town and the people. Pulling together is but another ; way of saying cooperation, and you, all know that is the word we have ' been preaching now for many moons, j i. licit is> wuai w c jiccu. a nt ^ i on Sunday said the same thing jn ' other words. And that it was the ' only route by which the labor question and all other questions could be ' settled and until they were settled | in that way they would not b? settled. ! "Newberry, let's pull together," is a fine motto, and if all the people J would only live up to it, and do it 1 in rio-ht cnirit wp would he SOfir " %ilv _ _ surprised at the good results thai would follow. Suppose we try it just a little while and see if ic be true that it is worth anything at all.

Think about that. . * /9* MAJOR FRANK DUANE MOWER, Medical Corps, V. S. A. Born at Newberry, S. C., March 17, 1880. Educated in city schools of Newberry, S. C., and in Newberry college,?also at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Md., and at Tulane Medical Schools, New Orleans, La. Practiced medicine at Newberry, S. C. Volunteering his services, he was commissioned First Lieutenant, Med ical Section, Officers' Reserve Corpe, June 5, 1917, and ordered on active duty, to Camp Greenleaf, Fort Oglethorpe, August 10, 1917, where he received military as well as special medical instruction until November 1, 1917, when he was ordered to Camp Jackson. After a short service in an Ambulance Company, he was, about January 1, 1918, ordered to duty as surgeon of 306th Field Signal Battalion, part of the 81st di vision. In February, 1518, he was promoted to the rank of Captain. About the last of May, 1918, he went with his division, to. Camp Sevier, leaving there for Camp Mills about the middle of July, 1918. The last of July he went over seas with his division. About March 1, 1919, he was promoted to the rank of Major. His service, since he was ' ' -L - o T_ .1 1 orcierea 10 tamp jac&suu, sias uccu with the 81st division (Stonewall or Wildcat division.) He is now returning on steamship Roanoke, due to arrive at Charleston, S. C., June 22, 1919. O. B. MAYER, M. D., A. M. August 23, 1853?June 13, 1918. The board of trustees of Newber ry college has just received with deep regret official notice of the death of Dr. O. B. Mayer, a member of the board. Dr. Mayer received his academic education at Newberry college, but he did not have the opportunity to complete the course. In 1894, however, in recognition of his scholarly attainments, the college conferred upon him the degree of Master of Arts. He recognized and fully appreciated the importance of Christian education and the vital relation of the college to the life and growth of the Lutheran church, and for many years he was intimately connected with the institution. In 1889, he was elected - 1? i-i~ - i? <t memuer <jx tiic uuaiu ux u usicc. In 1893, he was elected lecturer on physiology; and in 1894, a member of the standing committee. He held these offices until his death. From 1906 until 1913, he was treasurer of the college and of the semi-centennial endowment fund. He filled all of these positions with marked ability and fidelity. He gave - - ? i / v j_ _ _ _ freely ol his means ana 01 ms iime, though he had to meet the exacting duties of a profession in which he had achieved distinguished success. For years he was the donor of the senior history medal; and in 1896, he established the McCaughrin scholarship. He loved the college and had faith in its future, and the president of the institution always found in him a wise, safe, and optimistic counselor. This board is confident that it expresses the sentiment of th > church and of the community at large when it records its hearty and grateful appreciation of the fine service rendered by our deceased brother. He served his generation faithfully and well, t WHEN YOU NEED F i INSURANCE MOST Y CANT GET IT. ' .

She has passed her junior [ examinations in Hunter college of! the city of New York and rises to the ; senior class as an honor girl. She is j head of her class, she is head of her Camp Fire club, she is head of the Hunter college riding club and she J has been elected for both the short1 and the long term as president of j her college fraternity, the exclusive 1 TlL: C<:?

There was no competition in this case as the election was forced upon Miss Hobbs, unanimously.. She is a quiet, cool and level headed j young lady with a lovely disposition which endears her to all of her classmates. Hunter college is the second largest female college in the United States. Very recently Miss Ethel Hobbs was selected from among the 1,000 young ladies in Hunter college to represent the college body at a great event in its history. Ninteen hundred twenty will be the golden anniversary of the college. So Miss Hobbs will not only o orniHon nnniversarv erraduate ; UC M gViUVi* ? - * v q, but will be the golden anniversary president of her important fraternity in Hunter college. This young lady hsa been in Newberry more than once. She loves the South and the Southern people. She constantly importunes her father to move South and live among people who are so congenial to her. Some time ago she won distinction in her studies and was presented with a volume of the life of General Robert E. Lee, by Thos. Nelson Page, now ambassador to Italy. She read it carefully and is one of General Lee's sweetest admirers. In presenting the volume | I to her, the professor of northern i birth and training said: "I hope you will read this carefully, for people should know more about this great and good man, General Lee." Col. Hobbs tried to come South to commencement this year but his official duties and business affairs kept him from doing so at that time. He says that he will be with us next year. His love for Newberry and the Newberry people has not. abated in spite of his thirteen years of ad venturous travel through the world and his business and official activities in the great city of New York. Once he said: "My ship of life rides at anchor far away; but my heart is anchored in Newberry." Who Owns These Guns ?
