The largest, fincoi; and sweetest persimmon, the kind grown ' princi-. pally in Japan, was brought to this j office from the hr:r.? of Mr. R. K. Switten^rg, who has a tree in his ; yard. There Were 15 or 20 more of ' the some sort where the sample we | are mentioning came from.

I That was a misunderstanding. Mr.; Hallman told the reporter that he! did not propose to raise the price,; as he thought 15 cents enough. Since i then Mr. Farrow stated to us that at | his place the price of a shave would j remain at 15 cents, except that he would charge 5 cents extra for a j neck shaVe.

The Pickens Sentinel says that a Mr. Robinson saw it one day last week hear his home, flying low, and that he hegfrd the bell very distinctly; and that a Mr. Lark also saw it.

When we read last week that an aviator charged $10 a passenger for a little flight m the air at tibe State fair and that the "station" was crowded witii persons eager to take the trip, we wondered if those persons who had "money to burn" would be eager to give $10 apiece for the "thousands dying of starvation in Petrograd," as announced in last week's papers, wnen we react of "Hunger in Budapest," and "Red Cross nurse tells harrowing story," arid other like horrible news, and then see how our people, some right here in Newberry, are literally throwing money away, we think of the cry of a woman who, with her dying baby in her arms, exclaimed: "My God, j: thousands rolling in wealth and my baby Starving."
