THE MANNIl Entered at the Postofilee at Mar Appelt & Shope Published Ever Subscription Rates $2.0 MANNING, S. C., WEDNI Summerton Sayings We do not believe that a man should "kick" his home town, but we do be lieve in constructive criticism. With this in view, we wish to criticise two things: A ditch. This ditch, paralleling Main Street for about four hundred yards and in the rear of the lots of Mrs. Ed. Briggs, Mr. John Baskins, Mr. M. C. Stuckey, Mr. Camel Chewn ing, Mrs. Wilkie, Mr. Windham and several lots rented by negroes, is a breeding place for mosquitoes, offen sive odors, and, probably, sickness. It could be easily remedied by proper cleaning; in fact several of the lot owners have offered to clean their portion, but others refused to co operate. We suggest that the health board take a look for themselves-be sure to bring your gas masks for pro tection. The Holiness Meeting. We agere with the Preacher that there is "a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance," but we do contend that "the time" is not twelve o'clock at night. Just the other night, we understood, a zealous convert was carrying on his mission ary efforts under the depot so loudly that many families were disturbed.

The man buys a "long discount" tire usually finds himself troubled by above question. Did he pay less for the tire than his neighbor might have paid, or actualy did he pay more? Did he get the bottom price, when all is said and done, or could he perhaps have driven a sharper bargain? Was the net prim really more than he might have had to pay for a - tire of established reputation and value? In the belief that the average motorist prefers a frank and open transaction, we built the new Goodyear Cross-Ub Thad Cord and dlscouned the "discount" in advance. Instead of listing it at a high p rice, to enable the dealer to attract you with a so-called "long discount," we list it as low as we profitably can. We build it of high-grade long-staple cotton, using the patented Goodyear method of group-ply construction, and s it at a lower price than you are asked to pay for many "long discount" tires of unknown worth.
