Geo.. Bailey which we copy from the At-; lanta Constitution. It is brief and it will pay you to read it and if you, keep a scrap book a mighty good J thing to paste in your scrap book. J "Yes, there is still a Dixie." - i 1 ???. Wo notice that the first number on the program at the meeting of the j Press association next Monday night ! after the welcoming ceremonies are I over is an address by Former Sena-1 tor W. P. Pollock. We have nothing against Pollock. Personally we are good friends and he has always been mighty nice to us and we have nothing against his politics. But we; do/not think it is in keeping with! the purposes of the press association j ^ to be playing up any of the politi- j cians. In fact it has always been the j purpose at these meetings to forget any differences even in factionalism j that may have existed, and to lay j ""!Ja cret together to dOIUC au |/VliVAV? Mttvi talk about things that are helpful to i the profession, or talk about silly ; nothings, and rest, truly and rightly rest. When we go to this meeting we don't want to hear anything about the league of nations, woman suffrage, prohibition, or even the price of cotton and the reduction in acre-j age, or the drive for the sale of vie- j tory bonds and the Red Cross, or the' Salvation Army or the Y. M. C. A. or j the Jewish relief or anyhting at all,! we just want to .rest and eat and talk! * * -* SDOUl Old times uic viu and the new tili6%^'h?ith the young1 fellows and dance with the girls. In j fact get away from the every day grind. Get that- rest which comes from change of labor, change of thought, the ..only kind worth while. What say yoif^brethren and sisteren? "Dixie, the beautiful and glorious, | the sweetest chapter of history, the noblest epic of the ages, the light of ; yesteryear, whose effulgence gilds ; - the crest of time's swift onward tide!

Surely you will agree with Col. Bailey that there still is ft Dixie. The Atlanta Constitution of Mon- . dayj^id there was a famine in sugar in the city.

Matthews says they have a big sugar refinery in Savannah and that the j government tax paid by the concern | amounts to something like $10,000 a day so there must be plenty of sugar somewhere. We notice that Gov. Cooper is call-' iner a meeting of the sheriffs and the solicitors to discuss the enforcement of the laws. That is right, for to have law enforcement, as Gov. Cooper well says, there must be a public sentiment created for the law, be * * cause without it tne law omcers j 1 almost helpless. ; It is so easy ot make a good news-1 paper when you have good and efficient help and a good machine.

There is another thing that Newberry needs just now, and that is a leal building and loan association that is not intended to make money for a few individuals, but one that will help the poor man to buy and own his own home. Instead of paying rent forever let him pay his rent and a little additional each month and eventually own the property. Home owners make better and more permanent citizens of any communiTj 1 -L A. 1 i-T J. 4.1 :ll xy. 11 IS UUt IlclLUiai til <tL LIIC^ Will feel a little more interest in the community in which they live if they feel that the house in which they live is in reality their own home. Newberry has never had a real building and loan, because all that we have had never helped any one to build a home. Most of them made it more difficult to get money with which to build a home than the party would have in securing the money from an individual or fsom a bank. We want a buildiner and loan that, if necessary, will build the home and give the young man with a meager amount of cash but of good character and hard working the opportunity to occupy it, and instead of paying rent pay on the purchase of the property. This can be done with profit to the men who make up the association and real benefit to the young man who really desires to own his home. This is a fine field for the activity and the energy of the real estate deal- j ers of the community and we hope that 3ome of them will take hold of the matter. Houses are scarce in! Newberry now and no one seems in-1 clined to build any for rent, because! it does not pay, but it would pay the community to help young men to! build and own their own home. We understand that the city coun-| cil has about collected all the informJ AM/] VAAUAofft/1 ?Ktr fli a dllUU I1CCUCU auu 1 C\j[ut0i/tu ujr Kiiv citizens meeting held some time ago and are nearly ready to call that other meeting. ! With the activity in real estate in Newberry at the present time we should begin some civic improvement in the town in the way of better sanitarv conditions and better and more permanent streets. Then we will begin the growth that should have been started here a good many years ago. Epting-Jumpery At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. T. A.
