closed Friday, in order that pupils
and teachers might attend
the county fair at Rock Hill.
Almost the entire school with j
the exception of the primary
pupils, spent the day on the fair
grounds.
Sam A. Lee's big new bicycle
sustained slight damages Monday
afternoon when, ridden by
its owner, it plunged head-on into
a small Ford on the curve at
Bailes' lumber yard. Fortunately,
Mr. Lee was observing the I
speed limit, else the damage to
J his wheel might have been far
greater and there is no telling t
what might have happened to
the Ford.
Osmond Barber, one of the
progressive farmers of this section,
stated to a friend Friday
that during the 13 months which
had elapsed since September 1,
1914, he had sold 110 pigs, receiving
an average per pig of $3.
Mr. Barber doubtless is doing
more to advance the "hog and
^ hominy" project in this section
than any other citizen.
Although it would seem a little I
early for the "soaks" of the com- j
munity to be laying in their annual
supply of Christmas booze, !
the whiskey receipts at the local
express office during the last few
days are said to have been almost
equal to those usually arriving
for the few days immediately
preceding the Christmas holidays.
The Times is further informed
that of the 29 money orders
issued by the local postoffice
one day recently. 23 of the orders
went to Richmond whiskey houses.

instantly killed at Clover Saturday
morning about 10 o'clock
when he was run over by a
Carolina & Northwestern train.
The train was being operated as
an excursion from Chester to
Gastonia, N. C., for the Gaston
county fair and when it reached
Clover it did not stop. The
negro attemped to swing on

body being badly mangled. Coroner
Strait went to Clover to
hold the inquest.

Played Second Tie Game.
The football pame played between
the teams of the York
high school and the Fort Mill
high school in Rock Hill Friday
resulted in a tie, the score being
7 to 7. By a peculiar coincedence,
this score is the same as that
made during the game between
the two teams played on the
local grounds about two weeks
ago. The two aggregations are
very evenly matched and a third
game will be necessary to decide
which is the stronger
team.?York News.

Loans on Cotton ||^
at 6 per cent II m
Last year the First National I
Bank loaned money to EVERY iVVd-v/
farmer who offered warehouse
receipts for cotton as security,
and by means of these loans ft ?n| 'N
hundreds of bales of cotton were I ful
stored and sold later at higher ft
prices which put thousands of
dollars in the pockets of our
farmer customers. N
We do not advise the farmers
to store their cotton this year nor c,? y?u
do we advise them to sell at the need
present prices. This is a matter
which should be decided bv each
individual farmer according to ,
his needs and circumstances.
We are prepared however to rePaii"s or
make loans, secured by ware- outbuildir
house receipts for cotton, to to offer 5
those farmers who may wish to early com
hold their cotton at Six Per Cent possible r
Interest. defy com]
