Tuesday, July 13, 1920. * ( WHY WAIT? < We are glad to see the chamber , of commerce take up the matter of : the bridge across the Broad river ; between Newberry and Fairfield and J protest against the building of it at ; Newberry's expense so as to cross J into Union county. The bridge should be built and these people are entitled 1 to better mai^ facilities or rather such river crossing as will not depend ; upon high or low water. Yet we are sorry that the first act of the Newberry chamber of commerce was not the work on the road from Newberry to Whitmire and from Whitmire to Newberry. This is the most import- ; ant thing now that concerns not only ' Newberry town, but also Newberry county. But this bridge matter will take very little time as no sensible person will presume for a moment tihat Newberry will contribute to the < * t i i _ / < Building oi a Dnage Deween ;\ew , : berry and Union counties, and the ( bridge should be built where it will 4 serve the people of Newberry, if Newberry is to pay the cost or even < half the cost. ~ j ) I Then let the chamner of commerce j m get busy right quick on this road to : and from Whitmire. And then there j is another thing which seems to us , should be easy of accomplishment for the chamber of commerce if it is : taken in hand in the proper manner, ' and that is a telephone line from Whitmire to Newberry so that we ] looef tallr +y? nnr neighbors < WiUU UV AWUWV WWAM, yw T~0 on this side without going around by Clinton over long distance. We can not understand why this has not been done a long time ago. Mr. John M. Suber who has two phones, one to Newberry and one to the exchange at Whitmire, says that his Newberry connection is generally so that he can not talk to Newberry and about all it does for him is to permit him to pay for it pretty regularly once a month. ' J The Herald and News has been telling the good people of this community about these things for -quite ^ a while. .Better taKe our suggestum and get busy right now. It is very important. We desire to keep these goad Whitmire people in our family and we desire also to manifest that spirit which would indicate that we appreciate them and Iqve them. The roads are needed and the telephone line also. Surely we could do something if we would wake up and view the situation as it should be viewed. Why wait? VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT.

One of the things we do not understand j 5s how so many men can see so mucn better .than the contractors themselves how to lay a wall straight. Miller chapel, A. M. E., in graveltown, had a grand rally Sunday t loming, at which they raised about f, 650, with about one-third of toe]| nemMrship paying their pro uta|l hare That was another good shower here j| Saturday night between nine and ten j 9 >*cioek, following the shower be- i | ween five and six in the afternoon.!!

The Herald and News congratulates the fortunate and happy bridegrooms ifc wp11 wishes to them C411U ? and'their fair young brides for long, pleasant and prosperous lives. Every variety of bug and beetle imaginable, says the Anderson Mail, has been brought into the city lately charged with being a boll weevil, but so far every one has come clear of the charge. That must be the way a good deal of it is in Newberry. The Exhibitors' Circuit wired Wonoffor WaIIs that, t.hev were forced to cancel the date for "Yes or No?" in which picture Norma Talmadge is featured. It will appear here later. In place of this for Tuesday there will be Anita Stewart in "In 'Old Kentucky," a big special production. The Spanish-American war survivors present at the banquet Thursday had their photographs taken singly and in a group at the studio of O. & T. E. Salter. The "old boys" show up well, looking like they had snjoyed the jokes Griff Williams got Dff on some of them as -told during the war. Speaking of good soft drinks, :ream soda is a sparkling- beverage now claiming our attention. It is bottled at the Newberry Coca-Cola plant and is a most palatable and refreshing drink, /good fpr the body of everybody and its organs, including the mind, heart and stomach of man and woman. A cow belonging to Sarah Calmes is the proud mother of twin heifer calves, notwithstanding the high cost of living. The little twins are -new and up to date, fine specimens of exelusive circles of the animal kingdom. Sarah is the faithful cook for Mrs. P. G. Gaillard in Helena, and everybody is happy. _ Did you notice the statement Friday that Saturday would see the last of "The Silent Alamo?" The reporter had alamo on the brain and in the "unsilent" office at the rush hour of press day that word slipped in for "Avenger." Instead of the last you are just seeing the beginning of the "Silent Alamo," as handled by Mr. Carl T. Julien% We thank the Pepsi-Cola Bottling WUrft.5 IllCLLLClg^ llL^LX U XUi. VXMWM W ?
