^ JLnesuu^, ucvuuci X-*, VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT. tc The many friends of ex-Mayor J. J. Langford, remembering the past and looking to the future, are urging him to become a candidate for n' the office of mayor at the next elec- ni tion. rl The first case of the flu report- ? e<J m Newberry for the 1919 season ' was caught by Mr. Gus Metchicas, which we hope and still believe n' won't amount to much in spreading. ^ We are elad to say that Gus has a ^ mild attack of this disease that was ;"" so dreadful and fatal last winter, j , Lots of people in Newberry must n-n KoVor's hrpari. for not- _ Ucpcuu Vil w , _ ^ withstanding the hundreds of loaves Isold here daily there was a demavd ^Aexceeding the supply Saturday, re^fculting in a "bread shortage," of the ^^baker loaf variety. Added to the 1 sugar shortage this was hard on ^^ome people. HB In speaking of Mrs. M. 0. J. Kreps, I Vho was on the program for a talk the big educational mass meetf ing in Charleston Sunday night, the I ' American said: "Mrs. Kreps is well I known in Charleston. She is natur ally a forceful speaker, the effect of j _ which is multiplied and enhanced! . greatly by her devotion to her church and its work." The South Atlantic Realty comAk pany sales force of Greenwood, says ^ tiie Greenwood Index-Journal, went ^^ o Chappells on last Wednesday and ^PPold the following tracts: The H. G. Strother place of 407 acres, the M. T. Turner place of 678 acres, the Willie R. Smith, Jr., tract of 14 acres and the farm of Mrs. George T. Read of 400 acres. The names of the buyers and the prices were not given. A negro from the country Saturday afternoon brought in two opos^Rsums. When we saw him he was ask-; I kng $3 for the two. He wanted ?2 I Mr the larger one, which he said ^^^pighed about seven pounds. Like ^kverything else, 'possum is high. H. He. L. is bad enough with what one < B^^^compelled to have to live, with- { Ik "old poss" on the bill of fare, i ^^Hbme enterprising farmer"oug/ht to; ^^^tart a 'posum farm. On Wednesday at the opera house j \ you will see Florence Reed in the j latest drama masterpiece, "Her j Game," in which the stakes are love, | I wealth and honor. It deals with the! story of a young Southern girl whose j i family faces financial ruin through, I a lawsuit forced on it by an old time I Nejxemy. The daughter of- the family sets out for New York bent uponj? righting the family fortunes, and ] meets with a series rt thrilling adventures in the big city. Whenever this reporter undertakes to describe a. wound in any part of the anatomy pf a human being he doesn't use technical terms, but speaks in common language sa that all may understand. It has always been his rule to write everything in easy words. Because a writer doesn't ^^^try to show off m extra attempts is i H mo reason why he couldn't "eluci- | ^^Hlte" if he wanted to. This writer ^N^Kims at writing as most people talk HBd ordinary conversation. j The Newberry crowd, though few-! vya number, were not second in J gard to lookst ability nor general j icellence. Now that was said by j gj ifie Associate Reformed Presbyte- j H rian in reporting the recent meeting i of the Woman's Presbyterial union, i H And that was not all that the said j M A. R. P. said. After saying that Dr.; Carson was present and made a cap- j ital talk, the same paper went on to j say that, "however, he had to check j HHyiis enthusiasm and cut down his j flNj^^ech that woman might as usual j I the last word." H^^^HIre was a pleasant reunion onj I Thursday noon of the sons and j ^HRHJcters of the late Col. Jno. R. j Leave]], at the residence of Mr. R. I Y. Leavell, on which happy occasion the host had as guests Dr. William TTavne Leavell of Houston, Texas, Mr. and Mrs. Jno. R. Leavell of Grfeenwood, Mrs. C. C. Watson of Rome, Ga., Mrs. Jno. R. Spearman ^^Aof Columbia, Dr and Mrs. W. E. ^^VPelham, Mrs. G. A. Wright and Miss ^^ ^l^pbeth Wright, and Mrs. Harry ^^^HBonnell and son of Norfolk. It is ^^^^^Wless to say that the dinner was a Inner with the rich "feast ? [reason and flow of soul." BiOTIICE OF DRAWING JURY. ^Notice is hereby given that at 9 'clock A.
