CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
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

/ 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.

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,

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.

The county Democratic executive
committee met on Monday in response

During the twelve years service of

528 members have been

and adult baptism, and 160 ;
by infant baptism, making a total of:

debt, and giving largely and liberally!
to benevolences and other causes, the j
pastor's salary has been paid prompt- i

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

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.

it is a sign of anemia. When

a secret or patent medicine, but one
that is sold and recommended by

and physicians are daily prescribing
the constituents contained in it. Being
entirely unlike many other Phosphates,
it is easily assimilated and
