'I
Dillon is & border town. In fact it
las been bordering for years. It lies
setween little Pee Dee, which is its.
lorthern boundary, and Maple j
Swamp, its southern. Its western
limit is limitless, and runs in a more i
jr less sigzag line, commencing at1
:he old Bethe* sawdust pile and stop- j
?ing at Braddy's hog-pen. This leaves
:he northwest open to Little Rock,
which thriving village aspires to be-l
:ome in the near future a suburb of I
greater Dillon. On the east it (Dil-j
on) is bounded by an imaginary line '
:ommencing at Pee Dee and running '
south and crossing the big ditch some
where between Capt. Easterling's and
Dr. Stackhouse's residences. This
maginary line is so fixed and deflate
that it could not be moved an
nch farther east by a Ford Tractor.

NOTICE.
Road Overseers for the Year 1918.
In view of the fact that in many
Instances those subject to road tax
for the year 1918 were warned out
and did perform certain work on the
public highways of Dillon county i
and the full time of five days?as
provided by law?was not actually
performed, due to not having been
notified by the overseer in that par
I*e Will UU U 5UVU, |
proper has very improperly held a-!
oof. ,
Now the advantages offered by Dilon
proper to Dillon improper should:,
>e augmented by the following, viz:
The court house, post office and
juard house to be moved to the Pe:an
Grove, Dillon improper to be alowed
to help in a limited way in
:ax paying, and to offer its favorite
son as a candidate for the Mayoralty I
>f Greater Dillon conditioned only
>n the eastern boundary being mov-!
?d so that it will run so as to just
?xclude lue Allen Surles property.
The advantages in living in Dillon
proper can't be enumerated. But they
ire great. A.lighting plant that hasn't
'lowered yet. No one knows whether
t is a night blooming series or aj
:entury plant. W.hat water there is |
tan be drunk with impunity, altho'
many Dillonites prefer to mix it with
something stronger.
The men of Dillon proper all have
)hones in their houses, and that
pleases their womenfolk. The phone
service is fine. I. C. I.
