I Friday, December 8, 1922 That is a pretty good list of names to petition to leave the wagon yard I? as it is below the old court house and % they are good citizens as well. The only and main trouble about the matter is the petition comes too late. It should have been sent- to the lasc legislature. The act passed at thai session not only gives authority, but directs the highway commission to set aside this lot for a park and for a monument to the veterans 'of the world war. Of course $here is a condition aoout keepingfup the streets and a hitching place,, but after th? (lot has been usea xwr * yam _ monument what good will it do to have the condition of reverting to the county. A park would look mighty nice down there but it is not the place for a monument of any k:nd. The highway compression has commenced the work of buKding the road from Mr. John C- Neel's down by Union school house and on to Jolly Street, a road greatly, fieeded. There are some mighty bad creeks and bottoms to cross, and where a road is greatly needed. The .next road is to Tabernacle out from Jalapa. That is very much needed ^lso. And then the road out from the- Pomaria high way by" Bethlehem church to Zion school and on over to the Broad river ???<? And that too is greatly need I - ed. Ill fact sonie of these cross roads are really of^jpore help than some of the highways, but we would not abolish any of tliem. We have made wonderful progress in road building in Newberry county during tbe last couple years. That was a very gracious act on the part of the local post of American legion in sending a committee to each school in the county^cpi Tuesday, and presenting a flag, ant^ explaining the various courtesies due the flag, and Kow and when to make the salutes. It will look mighty nice to see a United . States flag floating at each school WawKorro eViAuld have a real park IKj*'" 4Wn VVA ^ ; - and it should be along either side of Scotts creek with a "drive way on either side and nice tt^s planted along pj the banks of the^rrck and flower gardens and walks and so on. But the first civic improvement that Newberry should unite in making is the improvement of Rosemont, and make it Rosemont the beautiful. A LITTLE ABOtfiP OURSELVES We feel that we should say a little about ourselves. Not much just now, but if things go as we feel they will go with us, then we will crave the indulgence of our readers for just another word some time, very soon. When I undertb&Pthe publication of The Herald andffcpws on the first of July as publisher, it was not my purpose to do anything but try to get iout a paper and let. another ao tne job work, and in fs&t i thought I had an arrangement that' would relieve me of anything to do with the mechanical department. But I didn't. What I want to say is, that 1 have had the job presses fitted up and have now some good help in the mechanio. / cal department and we are going to > - - .. do job work, that is, the kind of work ^ ; that we are fitted to do, and that covers almost anyhing made with paper and ink. The fear that I have is that it has been so long since I made prices on job work, and times and costs have changed so much, that I will not be able to charge enough for the work. We are now prepared to do job work, and as it' sifttild be done. We have the equipment and we have the > workmen and we know how it should be done, and we will do it at a price that will vmi. If I ran iusi I get my consent to keep up on the price, is the only thing that worries me. We have new "job presses and 'new job type and- mechanics who ' know how to manipulate the type and to apply the ink. Come to see us when you need ar>y_,b:ll heads and letter heads and etrvefopes and dodgers and any other- l^fele things or bi? ones in the job line/ Satisfaction anc prompt delivery \pifk be our guidin? star when it comc-s to jobs. Don't forget the place, cornel store room under the National hotel Ijsv a. A. The rural schools should not suffer at the hands of the next legislature Certainly not if 4 little agitation ir their behalf counts for anything, be cause there has been observance o: - . National Education week in everj t county in the state, and that fac alone called the attention of the peo pie to the needs of the rural schools . Sweet potatoes sold on the streets of Newberry on Wednesday afternoon at 40 cents the bushel. That grower should have joined the potato association. What we need is that farmers exchange that The Herald and News lias ib-een talking about for so many long years, where any grower could bring whatever produce he had and get the market price for it any day and not have to wait and peddle it out on the street. nn.~ -t- *.~ 4.1.? o?i.. J. ue apjji uauu tu liic ooiuua uvci bridge on the Chappells road needs attention. We called attention to the matter in the last paper, but may be the commission did not see it, or may be the repairs have been made. Did you know that it is only a very short time until the legislature will meet. And we will have a new governor and some more laws on the books. * 3> '?> AMONG THE SCHOOLS < > S> <$> <$> <& <$ <$> <& <$> $><?><$ The committees from the American legion local post visited every school in Newiberry county on Tues ? A J JL M' MA TT?lf Q/1 day, ana presented a mw u aiov^u States flag, and in most of the schools, the flag pole was ready and the flag was hoisted and will wave every school day while the school is in session. It will be nice to see the flag unfurled at every school house in the county. Where the pole was not ready I hope the trustees and the teachers will see to it that the flag pole is put up at once and that the flag is hoisted. A good suggestion made by Dr. Knotts is for the teacher to appoint some boy each week to act as color bearer for that week, and make him responsible for the proper care of the flag and for seeing to it that the flag is unfurled every morning and that it is drawn down and furled every afternoon when school is out, and that it is properly taken care of * * * ^ r% i? during his term or omce. so iar as i have been able -to observe Newberry county is the only one in the,state where a flag was presented to every school on Patriotism day of National education week. I am sorry that I could not make 'he round? with at l?ast one group on Tuesday, but Mr. Verd Peterson of the state department of education was with me that day and he wanted to visit some of the Smith-Hughes *cholos, that is, some of the negro schools that are the beneficiaries of ^.he appropriation under this act. On ?>Ionday he visited the negro school it Vaughnville, and on Tuesday hewanted to visit the Mt. Hebron negro .^hnn] npar St. Pauls. These two negro schools and the white schools at Newberry and Whitmire and Prosperity and Pomaria and Little Mountain get help from this source. After visaing the Mt. Hebron school we % Where to Go Ho V . G > , THE H( * Tke Place to i , Knitted Mu Silk Muffler !

Dr. Knotts and Mrs. F. I). Mower had the M route that came this way. We then of ? went with them to Jolly Street and grea Union and Johnstone. They did not day have the pole at St. Paul, but prom- brot ised to get one and have the flag benraised. At Jolly Street the pole was Mrs. j in position and after the talks in the fath school house the flag was raised. At ny 3 j Union the pele was on the ground but suffe ! had not been put up. The teachers year j and the gentlemen who were present Chri I uromised to erect the pole at once, the At Johnstone there was no pole in H. C sight, but Mrs. P. B. Banks assured two us that she would have the pole pjt year qp, and I know that she will. It was two an unselfish service on the part of the and legion, But I am sure they could not ily 1 have done- a better service and one this that would do more good. T1 for : The other organizations of the .^at o-irl town agreed to send committees at ^ ^ the same hoar and on the same routes Friday, to talk to the children and CU 1 the patrons who may come out, on some subject of vital interest to the ^ schools and the children. This day is ^ set apart as equal opportunity day. . . That is a mighty good subject about im X"16 ^ which to talk and a very important ione.
