EDITOR. t _ \ r , Friday, May 14, 1920. 1'! i1 We can not help calling attention * to the statements of the three banks published in this issue. Look at what that National Bank at Prosper- j ity is doing, the Peoples National. Remember that its capital stock is. only $25,000 and its surplus and un-! divided profits nearly twice as much' i - - J and the statement this time is big- < ger in those things which make, money j for the bank than it was at the last j report in March. And the same is j true of the Bank of Pomaria. And j the Commercial statement is a stun- j ner too. And not one of these has i borrowed any money. We are al-!( ways glad to see the banks prospering g and making money and being in posi- j tibn to help all worthy causes' and , ( deserving persons who are trying to help themselves. President Wheeler j and Cashiers McFall and Aull are onj the job and making their enterprises ( hustle. 15 ? X We regret that we did not get oyr Prosperity letter in time for tlife j Tuesday paper, and our correspond- j ent says she mailed it on the morning train,, put tn^re was some pusutge uuv i arid for some reason we did ttot get <; the notice until about 2 o'clock. We J'* state this in justice to the correspond- <ent. And suggest that she put enough. - postage on the letter to assure its delivery and charge the postage to the business office. Prom what we read of Mr. William c Jennings Bryan he is partly with the w Republicans and partly with tfte a] Democrats on the peace treaty and ^ the league of nations. !v, Will Handle Motor Trucks. There will be opened in a few days n a new concern for the handling ofj motor trucks, that is the company will j specialize in motor trucks but will' i also handle automobiles as well. C< The new firm will be the Smith- j Gresham Motor company and will | specialize on the Columbia trucks.,! The new company expects to be ready j for business about the 20th of this! month and will be in charge of! __ Uaptam uiauae smun. captain Smith has been carrying the mail on C! route o from Newberry for some time ! since the resignation of Mr. F. P. i Devore. The location of the newj company has not yet been announced, j Mr. Bennie Wicker who has been j the substitute will ride-the mail un-'at til an appointment is made. We are indeed pleased to see West \ . End barber shop equipped with allmodern conveniences. It adds muchj ; comfort to the people who appreciate j first class work in every way. , | ( Mr. H. E. Corley as manager, has! ' with him two well known men, noted j as good barbers, Messrs. R. C. Hamil-: ton and J. L. Nobles. You find these thre young men making a desperate effort to please the public. Give them a trial. I want to thank the many friends of Chappells for their kindness and* j * - ? * a: ?i J ?

Roach motored from Aiken and 3i spent the week-end in Newberry. We 3: were pleased to have these prominent j citizens of that tine Southern health o resort in our city, if only for a brief visit. Mr. Busch is city clerk and ^ treasurer of Aiken and will be pleas-' m+lv rpmomhered here as having' lately taken as his bride Miss Sara; Halfacre. daughter of Mrs. Thos. E. J , Wicker of Newberry. Mr. Roach is. also well known here as a former! local manager of the Southern Bell I Telephone company, in which capacity he is now acceptably serving the people of Aiken, where he was transferred some time ago. He was one of the very best and most popular . men ever coming to this city as a rep- ' " -resentative of any company. That his universal popularity is "an out- cl ward and visible" sign of his "in- lo ward and genial" personality is evi-i denced by ttie lact tnat ne was re- c cently elected on the Aiken alder-j manic board and has lately been serving as mayor pro tem. and is also being- urged by his many friends to become a candidate for the house' of representatives. If he should run J we hope he will be elected bv an j overwhelming majority, for j. J.U Koach is certainly one fine man from j every standpoint. Aiken county 1 "would do herself honor by electing! him as one of the representatives! from that county. ? Among the court house officials ?lerk of Court Jno. C. Goggans is the >nly one having opposition; he is op>osed by Mr. J. D. Wheeler, both of '/ho^e announcements have appeared n the papers. The announcements >f Sheriff Cannon G.
