DO NOT 'FOOL YOURSELF I do not want any subscriber to fool himself into- the belief that I am going to continue the special sale of The Herald and News at one dollar after the 31st of July. Or that I am going to let names remain on the list whether the subscription is paid or not as I have done in the past. I put on this special sale to give those who had gotten in arrears opportunity to catch up, and in doing so I made the same offer to every subscriber on the list regardless of \ the date to which he has paid. One dollar will buy The Herald and News for one year at any time up to and including July ol. Alter inat date the price will be two dollars and all who have not paid will be taken from the list. You know that I shall regret to take off any name, but I can not run the paper on credit, because I have to pay cash for all I get done end then it is more satisfactory to all parties, publisher and subscriber, * ' * T_ U to be on a casn oasis, we nave (,??.en on a good many new names during the sale, but a great many who are in arrears have not paid. I hope that all who desire the paper to come on will take advantage of this offer and get in good standing. There are not many days left, and I am giving ycu this personal warning to take advantage of this cheap sale while it is now on. E. H. Aull, Publisher, A PLEASANT GATHERING AT WHITMIRE TOWN \ A good many articles of local interest had to be left out of the last issue because of the bad condition of the linotype machine nnd the trouble it gave, and among these was the story I intended to write about a very pleasant occasion at the good town of Whitmire. It was decided to have one of the fine Xiwanis luncheons at this good town, and it was served by the Camp Fire girl? of Whitmire, and I have frequently &aid one cf the outstandirg charv;tristics of the people of Whitmire i? that they know how to do things, and tfcey do them, and this luncheon was but a demonstration of t.hat fact. The Kiwanians have two such luncheons e'ch month, that is to say they have two meetings a month, and each meeting- means a feed and fun. They do not have two meetings each month such as they had at Whitmire, but these gatherings bring the members together and they come to know each\ other better, and in Knowing our Tenows oetier we cume to find that even the worst of us have something good that we did not know about. I joined the Newberry Kiwar.ians, but I had to withdraw be"n cause at that time I did not feel that I could in justice to myself keep the gaits that were required, though it is a fine organziation, just as the Rotarians, and in fact all such org?nizations are good. The people in this age are too selfish and have been living too much to themselves alone, and anything that will help them to get out and realize that the best thing that man can do as he goes along through life is. to help his fellowman, and to serve his day and generation, is a factor in the devel oprueat aim uie propei uevejupmtriii of the race, and will give us a vision that looks out and beyond: This luncheon and meeting at Whitmire was under the direction of Judge I. H. Hunt, and he also had charge of the program, and that means that all good and careful diligence was given to the making of it just what gives every one a good taste of the meeting. And the additional fact that the meeting was at Whitmire meant that it was to be a delighful gathering. Every member and all the invited guests pronounce the meeting a great success, and Mr. Child and Mr. Sherard in giving the hearty invitation to have other meetings etc wuiuiiire may ue assured that the invitation will be accepted. The program is published in another column, though there was a slight change from the original order. Mr. Hamilton of Chester was absent and Dr. White was substituted for him, and Mr. Hamblin of Union was not present and Mr. W. M. Sherard was called on to say _ ' A. i.L* ? -1 il someining- at mis piace m me program. And Mr. W. R. Watson who had been expected was prevented being present on account of a death in the family. Otherwise the excel [lent program as arranged by Judge f | Hunt was carried out admirably and an excellent dinner was served by ! the Camp Fire girls of Whitmire and I ! every one voted the occasion a most. ; delightful affair. I; J !' I had a couple invitations to this11 | luncheon which I appreciate. I ; I drove over with, and was the guest ( j of, Mr. and Mrs. James L. Aull. Mr. 'John M. Kinard was in our party and ] ? l ! the very pleasant aiternoon curve j was exhilerating and did one good. The road to Whitmire is good and it is now just a pleasant afternoon ' drive over there and back. In other , days it was an all day trip, and on one occasion, not so many years ago, I recall that it took Mr. W. H. Hand and myself an entire day to < make the trip one way. And then , we had to leave the buggy on the ( ! hill near the Phifer place and walk < the balance of the way in order to < get there at all. I am glad that we have at last a < good road between the two towns. 1 I have pleaded for many years for a j road between Newberry and Whitmire and have told the people of 1 Newberry that we needed to have < closer relations with the people of ] the towns so that we could know ' each other better, but until in recent ; years there was very little going of 1 the people from one town to the : other, except when there was urgent 1 business that called. And Whitmire ] to many of the people of Newberry 1 was just like it was located in an- < other county. I am pl-eased to see 1 that there is now more visiting and ] that so many are able to know and .< realize that so many good people i live in Whitmire. and that those who had never been to the town, and if so on very rare occasions, have been i 'A 4-V?n -Po<*?4- -fVlQ-f fllDrD TCI i d Wcirwciicu lkj iav w wiaw ^ , such a place in Newberry county. ] This township is the second largest i taxpaying township in the county, < and long before we had highways I < pleaded often for better roads up this way. I lived in the county my- : slf for manj; years before I knew < about the town of Whitmire, but for i the past twenty years or more I have ; made many and frequent visits to the ] town and have long ago come to ap- 1 preciate and like the people over 1 here, and I have often said that I i was always glad of an opportunity J to make trips to the town, and if . there was no opportunity I would < make one any way. Meetings like : the Kiwanis gathering will do good : to get the people better acquainted, I have had several meetings of the teachers association over there and ! i r?A?7 m a o "rvnl rvf it nao iivo Jyvvwmv a *iai.u w* the association to hold at least one meeting at Whitmire each year. In < fact I had a fine meeting of the as- i sociation over there ten years ago, and for the past two years we have ' met there once each year, and it is one of the pleasant gatherings of ] the association each year. They have a fine school over here which has 1 grown from a little two teacher school to a high school, with ten or fifteen teachers within the past ten ( years. The fine Newberry highways are great assets and no doubt the people wonder how they managed to i get along without them for so many years. I hope that Mayor Cromer observ- ; ed the fine streets in this town of Whitmire and they are not paved. ; They put down cement curb all over the town and it not only helps to keep the streets in good condition but it widens the street very much. Mayer Cromer is doing a good bit of that sort of work here in Newberry and I hope that he and his council , will keep it going until all of our streets are curbed in this way and then a good sand clay road will make a good driveway. : ! E. H. A. : 1 i | TO GREENVILLE If you are contemplating an auto trip to Greenville do not fool your- t self into the belief, or let any one else fool you, that the road from ' Laurens around by Princeton is the better road. I have often heard that j . the road by Princeton was the better way to Greenville even though the mileage was .more. I had never been that road. I had occasion to make a trip to Greenville Wednesday and | I was told that it was better to go around by Princeton. I had an ap pomtment in Greenville at 9:30 Wednesday morning. Mr. L. H. . Senn and Mr. R. E. Watkins of Vaughnville were to go with me and they said it was better to meet in Laurens than for them to come to ; Newberry. We met at Laurens at . 7 o'clock. It was our purpose to try this Princeton road going, but in .making our way out of Laurens we'got into the Greenville road. They . are doing some street work in Lau, rns and while it is not .such a large . city to the comparative stranger who t does not know all the side streets /it is difficult to know just where you are at. Fortunate for us we got in the Greenville road and made our appointment on time. The road by Fountain Inn is fine hah +ViinL- t?r?n ovn crol'no* over the a IIU )UU wuiin j WW ^ bw...e _ - _ _ _ very best of the Newberry roads, and this is true of the Laurens end of the road as well as the Greenville end of it. It is just 66 miles from Newberry to Greenville by this road, 30 miles to Laurens and 36 miles from there to Greenville, and the road is fine, all the way, except from Kinards to Laurens, or I should say to Clinton, it is in need of that scarifier, but it does fairly well. And by f-v.a wov thqf. same instrument is needed again on the Newberry end from Newberry to Kinards. The crops above Laurens are fine all the way and the country has a prosperous appearance. There are. nice country homes and fine school houses and everything looks good. Messrs. Senn and Watkins went sver to have a persona) interview with a young lady who had applied +v>o nrtcitinn of teacher at LV/JL y*4V Jffvw.v.w.. Vaughnville school. They traded cvith her and the school is to open on or about the 15th of September. I hope they have made no mistake, rhe young lady has had considerable experience in teaching and lolds excellent recommendations from the schools she has taught, and rias fine personal appearance and pleasant bearing and seems to be tvell qualified for the work. Of ? v..J. T course we can never ten, uui 1 uciieve if the people will give her the right sort of cooperation as I am iure they will, she will do good work in this district the coming session. There are lots of -Newbery people n Greenville as you will find in most Dther good towns. Just how we have maintained and kept increasing our population with so many of )ur good people going out from us vMvcfnrinnc OLtino a. A i uuit iujovvAivuut We stopped first at the auto parts store of the Brown Brothers, Ned ind Joe, and they were glad to see as, and we were glad to see them, and to see also that everything appeared that they were prospering in this good town. Then we made a brief call on Bill Miller who has been in Greenville for several years. We found J. D. (Doug.) Daavenport and J. W. (Will) Watts at the big store of Belk-Kirkpatrick where they are making good and seem to be prosper ing. There are a great many more Newberry people in Greenville, but we did not have time to see them. Messrs. Senn and Watkins called on a young Mr. Crooks who is living there and I made a brief call on Rion McKissick of the Greenville Piedmont. He continues to promise to make me a visit to Newberry so that we may make a trip to Musgroves Mill and some of the other historic places around this section, but I am beginning to doubt if he will ever find the time. As we had plenty time left we came back the Princeton road. Don't take this road if you are looking for the best road from Laurens to Greenville. I am glad we came this way, because I had never been over the road. It comes through a fine section, one of the best I have seen in South Carolina, especially the Greenville end of it. The crops are fine and the people have good looking homes, most of them painted and the yards in fine condition and everything bearing the evidence of prosperity. The crops are good and especially the corn crop. And then there are just lots of country stores along the way and at one place there was not only a store but a bank right out there in the country some fifteen or more miles from Greenville. The sign said it was the Woodside Farms. The distance from Greenville to Laurens by this road is forty five miles and the road is not only full of holes but it is hilly and in many places narrow. We reached Laurens about 3 o'clock and I made a brief stop here to see the superintendent of education in regard to some of our line schools but he was not in the office, and I talked with the county treasurer about them. I am going to Laurens on Saturday and will see if he can give us the money that is coming to Newberry from the line schools and I will get our treasurer to send to Laurens the monev that is due Laurens on these line schools. I wish we could so arrange that we would not have any line schools but go far we have gotten along very pleasantly in the running of them. Coming back I got along fine until I was within a mile or two of Kinards when I had a flat tire and to my surprise my extra tire was flat also, isut oemg an opiirmsi i e-an always see where it might have been worse. In this case a negro driver came along and changed the tire for me and when we found that the ex tra was flit, about that time Mi Chancy, who drives a truck for thi | Stanton lillinjr station, came alonj j with his truck and he fixed me U] by patching one of the inner tube * i 1 and putting on a good tire ana came along home all right. An< Mr. Chaney was so nice about it almost concluded that it was a pleas ure to have h?d the flat tire. I have promised to go to Lauren: Saturday to make a talk at a rail) to be held here under the auspices o th? women's clubs of Laurens to set what can be done to help the school: get out of debt caused by the legis lature not making sufficient appro priation to carry out its own acts So I will not be in the office or it town in the forenoon of Saturday I will come back just as soon as I cai get here. E. H. A. | Let us remind you once more am finally that the 31st of July, 1922 is the last day on which you can bu} The Herald and News for one yea for one dollar. Better save a dollar .but we know and you know that yoi car not get along without it. Ant many who are in arrears have no taken advantage of this most libera offer, tl will est you more to wait The enrolment was fairly good ii this county so far as we have heard Most of them, like all of us. waite< until the last few days in which t< put their names on the club roll. A portion of Boundary stree needs the application of the scrapi and if it had it would be in fine con I dition after the good work done b; i Sn-norvisnr W^rts. Wish he COUll ' get along out this side very sooi with his scarifier, f ?? Mayor Cromer promised us t< have the driveways in the collegi campus scraped so that it "would bi smooth sailing to get in the ground and to drive after >ou once enterei without bouncing over the top. W' wish he would try to have it dom while [the summer school is in ses sion. It would take only a ver; v .l x. 4.u:? Wk A, snort lime tu uu una. t? hj hw^u' it now? The crops are looking fine in thi section. If the farmer has just con quered even to a small degree th< ravages of the boll weevil we wil make a fair crop. The weed i looking good. And then the crop have been well worked this year. The Whitmire road, certainly ou ? ? v* Ts\\\ v? noorlai its Lai dt> I'll. OUUII uan^i ->, nwuv the scarifier very badly the othe day. This is a fine road and shouli be kept in good repair go that th Newberry people who have not beei to Whitmire may be able to mak the trip. Baseball West End has won both her game i this week.

I e Hundreds of medicines are advertised i" to cure rheumatism, but not one is bringing to the public the evidences furnished y by the new herbal remedy, Dreeo. 0 "Dreco is the best rheumatism remedy I have ever seen." declares Mr. G. P. I Puckett of Greenville. S. C. I "It has taken all the pain from my joints and I feel young and strong again. ,3 I suffered tortures for years. I trifll everything i ever nearu 01, oui wnuuut - result, until finally I discovered this herb medicine that really has relieved e my terrible pains." ] There is no excuse for rheumatism. Peoplp who have been tortured for years, S yes, even so crippled that they were unable to help themselves, tell how they S have b*en brought back to robust health , through the mighty power of Dreco. ; Dreco acts with speed. It brings its relief quickly and pleasantly, and when . this takps place the soreness and pains 1 in joint and muscles completely disj appear. Dreco is a harmless remedy, but sure r and certain. It is made from the pure, , natural juices of roots and herbs and cond tains no mineral acids or dangerous , metallic salts. | e Dreco is sold by most good druggist^ n And is highly recommend i "Getsrtt" 1 { Wonder J \ Corn I i peeler ' i I I Just as Good for Galluses.
