The water situation in Newberry is serious hut not alarming if the people "Will conserve and not wiste. It is to be regretted that we have not a sufficient supply to water yards and gardens, but it is much more important to have a sufficient supply for fire and drinking purposes however .rnlnoklo OrflvHpn IS flfld hOWCVCr vaiuauiv vuv w.. .. much the watering of yards would add to the comfort of the people. When the new well is completed the supply will be adequate. We desire to cooperate to the end that we may have ample water for drinking and sewerage and for fire protection and by using economy in water the supply will be adequate. The rains will come soon and then the supply even in deep wells will be more.r There doesn't seem to be much desire this year for political office and / that is a good sign of prosperity, because as a rule none* of the offices pay a good living and the field for the competent young man in almost any calling is much more inviting and then he is free to do as he pleases and the opportunity to rise is greater.
