Every citizen of Newberry should nttend the nuhlic meetiner at the court house on Wednesday evening and j lend his encouragement to the organi- j zation ef a chamber of commerce, j The point has been reached in the i development of this town where, if j it is to move formard along with the other towns of the State in the same j class, there must be some organized ' effort, and the best way to do that is . .through a chamber of commerce with j a paid and trained secretary who will j give his entire time to the work for j the community. | There should be little effort to se- j cure twenty-nve live men m ims town who will be willing to pay fivej dollars every three months to such an ! enterprise. The chamber of commerce is going j to be organized along these lines, and j you want to be present and assist at! ; the birth and have a part in starting' this great forward movement, and if i you are not it will be a matter of re-; gret to you for years to come. We! all like to help a thing when it is moving and can go without our as-1 sistance, and this is going to move,! and you better come along and help i to start it off. The young men and the old young j oil Konlr r\-P flio mniramont an/1 ' j xiiv/ii ai^ oil uauxv vx vxiv uiv/v vuivuw uiav* , / then we are going to have some live! wires here from Greenwood town, j and you want to hear what they have j to say about the work in that town, j so come along and be on hand: .promptly. The drive for membership will be ; put on as soon after the meeting as i possible, and in fact the organization : is going to be made and made right now, and yqp want to be able to say j that you are helping to hold the bag! and that you are really a live citizen of this good town of Newberry. i . ??'? I There seems to be a lot of fine fellows who want to be lieutenant governor. We had a circular letter from our old friend Wilson Harvey j the other day, and he says he wants the job. Well, he is a good fellow and old Charleston should have a little of the pie. But we would like to j suggest to Wilson that he practice j on the writing of his name so that it j may be read without having to have j the name typewritten under the, signature so.that you may know who i it is, because he will have to sign j the ratified acts and it would be , rather cumbersome to take a type-1 writer on the desk of the lieutenant j governor to interpret the signature, i His signature looks pretty and l?as j some pretty curves about it, but the, main purpose of any writing is to j have it legible. And you know we estimate literacy in these days by j the ability to write your name, and if no one can read it, what is the writ-1 ing worth. But come along, Wilson, J we will introduce you to the good people of Newberry, and we will give you a right royal welcome when you come. U. S. SENATOR. There seems to be an idea in the minds of some people that some good or bad citizen is going to be elected to the United States senate to succeed Senator E. D. Smith. In other words a good many patriotic and otherwise good citizens seem to take it for granted that somebody is going to beat Senator Smith. We take it that he is going to be in the race to succeed himself. Several names have been mentioned as probable can didates. George Warren a fine young fellow down in Hampton county announces that he is in the race, and others are considering the matter and waiting for the lightning to strike, and it does not take a very big cloud to generate this sort of lightning. Well, Senator Smith is not going to be beaten so very easy, and if any of these prospective candidates think so they are entitled to another think, on^ txto /in r>nf" mAan V?v fn <v?v that Senator Smith is going to get our vote. It seems to us that this is Frank J over's opportunity to represent 1h3 great State of South Carolina in the senate, if he wants to do it, and will ecme down and spend a few weeks v.Uh us. He has not been out of congress *;co lour; to got out of touch w:"ih legislation,' and his experience j and work in be of great help to him in the upper branch, and he would make South Carolina a worthy and able representative. Really we have wanted to see Frank in the senate. Every time he has thought of making the race he has done us the honor to consult us, except the last time when he really got in and then got out. This is his opportunity. Any man ' ?- i- ? j ...i. 1:1? v? wno can gei in anu uut imc uc um iii the race for congress last election, and make the race he did, can accomplish almost anything in politics. That was the most remarkable race ever run in this state. With his record in congress and his close touch with the economic and agricultural conditions in the country today, as he is, would make him a valuable member of the senate, and he could be of great service to his state and his country in the senate. He may be doing a good service now, i4-^^ wnirtli HL'o V?urvinc a p>ood out Ik IS IUU uiuv.il ~ v- v, 0 _ 0 man who is very much alive. Come on, Prank, and get in the running. LITTLE MOUNTAIN AND PROSPERITY HIGH SCHOOLS One day last week in that newCleveland car that The Herald and News proposes to give away to some young lady, I went . to the Little Mountain high school in the morning and irt the afternoon m^de a visit to the Prosperity high school. I had been promising the two very worthy principals of these two very excellent schools to make them a visit for some time, and had this opportunity and made up my mind on the" spot to carry into effect my promise. I had intended to suggest to County Superintendent Wilson that I would be glad to have him go along, but did not have the opportunity to see him, after I found I could make the trip to both schools the same day and get back home in the early afternoon. I call ed on the trustees at both places and made an effort to get some of them to accompany me on these visits but they were all too busy. For several years I have been givng a medal at both schools for the best English essay produced by the tenth grade and have been assigning the subject myself. I had told the principals that I would like to suggest to the members of the grade some idea of the rules that I wanted them to observe and the principals very kindly - ~1--+ moL-o Q visit to the <taivcu 11IC uvr iiiuiiv. V% schools and do so. That is the cause of these visits. I always enjoy a visit to the schools and love to look into the faces of the children and give them a word of encouragement if I may be able. Miss Lizzie Neel is the very capable principal at Little Mountain. On my arrival she insisted that the school assemble in the auditorium and that I make a talk to all the children. I insisted that I only desired to talk to the tenth grade, but the result was that we met in the auditorium and it was an inspiration and a pleasure to look into so many bright faces and to note the fine work that is being done at this school, and the neatness and 'cleanliness of the building and the many pictures and flowers that were in evidence on all sides. And the principal said that the children were now acting as their own janitor and the money usually paid the janitor was to be used in the purchase of pictures for the various class rooms. This is a very commendable spirit and I am persuaded that the teachers j themselves at this school do not mind I helping in this work as well as the j children for upon my arrival one of j them was busy replacing a stove pipe which had been so unruly as to fall down. ?o? The enrolment at this school is | very near 200 and I think the tenth ; <rrade has some twenty members and the school spirit is still manifest, as ' you could see in the faces of the chil; dren and the interest that the teachers are taking in the advancement of the school. The people of th's community have worked very hard in the last few years for the building of a ?ood school in their community and they have succeeded. The taxable ' property in the district is not very lar.sre and the tax money has not been ? _C?I-rtn-n flia coVinnl <rninrr urid SUlllUiCItb OU actj/ HIW wwivrx'A make the improvenVents that they de; sired, that is it* was not a few years | ago, but the people by united effort ; would raise the money and they kept | moving and today they have one of the best equipped and best high \ schools in the state. From Little Mountain we drove around by Pomaria and made short stops there and at Richaidsonville, or J Wnlfpr "RirHaTvlHon'?? store, and came on to Prosperity and I made the v-jit to this school at 1:30. Miss Fwittenberg the very efficient principal of this school said it would be about time for the dismissal after I had looked ever the school and that x-~r\t-M I; *vr? rmnils r.s^rnhle in the auditorium and that I must talk to the school. Well, that settled it. i f ^lis school has the rooms the picture j of neatness and the beautiful ilowers j drawn on the borders of the blacki boards by the children and the many beautiful pictures on the walls give the children pleasant and helpful environment and here too the children j are acting as their own janitors and {the rooms are all neatly kept. There ! are some 225 children in this school and the tenth grade has 28 I think, - - * half girls and half boys, and they are ; a fine looking set of young people, j They march in fine order to the audiitorium and then they can sing too, and they sang several patriotic airs If or my benefit, and the principal tells me that they do not speak even to j one another in whispers from the time i they fall in line to march up to the : auditorium until they return to their I rooms. She controls the school on the i honor system and from what one jcouid see it is working beautifully, ! and Miss Swittefiberg says she has the finest set of pupils oi any scnooi j , in the state. j I do not think myself that there ! are any two schools in the state that j can excel them or that has a finer ^principal or a better set of teachers ! and that is what makes the school if i you have the children, and they have | these. These two young ladies are ! managing the schools most excellently j ! and they are loyally supoprted by the i devoted teachers. ?o? ' I hope T may be permitted to sug gest to the trustees at Prosperity | that they could add to the appearance i of the grounds by making a better | roadway to the entrance to( the! i grounds. i ?o? j The roads are not as good as they j might be and I want to say again | what I have said very often, but it can | not be said too often and that is if jsome provision is not made for the : maintenance of the good road but recently built from Prosperity to Little j Mountain it will not be a good road - very long. A part of the road right i nnTi7 Jc oroftincr ir> Hnr? rpnair. There I "u" ? - -i , ! seems not to have been used a suffi! cient amount of top dressing or not j the proper kind. The Prosperity end ; is eating out in holes much more rapidly than the Little Mountain end and if something is not done for its i maintenance there will be no road i here, in fact not as good as it was bei fore this five thousand a mile was j spent on it. It is a pity to spend so t much money on a road and then make no provision for its proper maintenane. - ' E. H. A.

Wilson, i 1 DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE HOLDS IMPORTANT MEETING The county Democratic executive committee met on Monday in response to the call of the county chairman. There was a good attendance. The main purpose of the meeting was to arrange for the enrolment of the clubs that will come to Newberry from that portion of Lexington below Little Mountain and Pomaria. 1 Mr. W. M. Wilson of Peak and Mr. G. F ^healy of the Cross Roads 1 section were present by invitation as were also Messrs. Ernest Mayer, t?i? t n t-r ! uuun nuuman anu t>. v? v& ) from the Lexington side. j It was decided to authorize the formation of clubs at Peak and at Cross Roads between Peak and Little Mountain and the voters in the new' territory adjacent to Little Mountain j and Pomaria will enroll at the clubs i at these two places. After the clubs' at Peak and Cross Roads are organ-; ized the executive committeemen and the secretaries of thfe two new clubs : and the same officers from the Little : Mountain and Pomaria clubs are to' meet and fix the boundaries for the ! i rinhs and another meetine of' the executive committee will be held j on the morning of the county conven- | tion to hear the report and admit the I! clubs so that they may have re^resen- j tation in the county convention. The new members who attended the meeting said they were glad to i be in Newberry and the committee expressed its pleasure at having them' a part of our big family and The; Herald and News desires to add its | welcome to these good people. This is a fine section of country made up mainly of small farmers who.do their; own work and make money and live at home and are Kood lawabiding'j citizens. Supervisor Sample expects to get down that side very soon apd work j up the roads so that it may be easy' and convenient for them to come to' town often and see us and get better' I acquainted. v t The Democratic clubs will meet on j Saturday, April 24 to reorganize and j to elect delegates to the county con- I vention. Each club will be entitled j td one delegate for every twenty- j five members or majority fraction i thereof.

In spite of the unfavorable weather! the Holy Week and Easter services ! at the Church of the Redeemer were i well attended, and much interest was shewn. About thirty members were >' added to the church by letter, confirmation and adult baptism. More than three hundred took the Holy communion at the two services Easter Sunday. The church was beautifully decorated, and those who did the work are to be congratulated for their , taste and skill. Mrs. Setzler and her j * ' 1 1 ?

Edward Fulenwider, 528 members have been added to the church by letter, confirmation, and adult baptism, and 160 ; by infant baptism, making a total of: * ? 1. i 688. Besides paying a large cnurcn debt, and giving largely and liberally! to benevolences and other causes, the j pastor's salary has been paid prompt- i ly every month since he has been! in the service of this church. There j has been no exception to this rule, j This is now one of the strongest'! Lutheran congregations in the south. j I i At St. Luke's Episcopal Church I The rector, Rev. W. S. Holmes, i held services on Sunday morning, J celebrating the Holy Communion.: The chancel was radiant with Easter i lilies and other choice and fragrant ? flowers, which gave their own sweet tribute in memory of that first Easter-Day when the Lord of Glory burst the bonds of death and the' grave that we, for whom He suffered i death upon the cross, might rise with Him to.

R. 7; % Pale Faced Women Tak< Rosy Cheeks and Men need Phosphates to Vigorous Athletes Increase Heir Strength, Eni More By dimply Taking a Few W< * ' Atlanta, Ga. Dr. F. A. Jackobson says that Photphates are just as essential to any man or woman who tires easily, is nervous, or irritable, worn out, or looks haggard and pale to make a strong, robust, vigorous healthy body, as they are to cotton to make it .grow. The lack of Phosphates is the cause of all anemic conditions and the administration of 5grain Argo-Phosphate tablets will increase the strength and endurance of weak, nervous, care worn men and ^w/\ av fV?von women ?3i/u per cent. in vi weeks time in many instances, and their contiued use will build up the whole nervous system, and give new life, vim, vigor, and vitality to the whole body. I always prescribe Arg'o-Phosphate to patients who are pale and colorless, and it is surprising to see how quickly a few weeks treatment will transform a pale face to a rosy cheeked beauty.' There can be no rosy cheeked, healthy, beautiful women, without their system is cnffiAmntiv ennnlior? with Phnsnhates. OU111V 1^/lJ WW4f/|/*4V\* ?? ?? * ? _ ? ^ In recent interviews with physicians on the grave and serious consequences o? a deficiency of Phosphates irt the blood of Amercan men and women, I have strongly emphasized the fact that doctors should prescribe more phosphates in the form of Argo-Phosphate for weak, worn out, haggard-looking men and women. When the skin is pale, and flesh flabby, it is a sign of anemia. When nrenra a"\e>n+or\ +VlP State Tennion tO i ' be held at Sumter, S. C., in May, 1920: M. M. Buford, J. F. J. Caldwell, R. T.
