Papers Must Raise Prices.
An open letter has been addressed
by the South Carolina
Press association to advertising
patrons and readers of newspapers,
advising that newspapers
must either advance subscription
and advertising rates, or discontinue
publication, says The
State. The committee emphasizes
that the price of print
paper has advanced during the
last eight months from $48 a ton
to $130. It is further argued
that paper in some instances is
almost unobtainable, even at
this price; some wholesale houses
UnvttM/w n/\mA fr\ nti/] oa?v*a
Having i iui iv/ i,\j unci auvt ouiuc
mills refusing to make new contracts.
"We are now paying
from 50 to 500 per cent, more
for paper stock, inks, metal,
type and other things used in
the publishing business than we
were eight months ago. The
only thing that will save the
newspapers of South Carolina is
an advance of advertising and
subscription rates." A meeting
of the association was held in
Columbia last Friday, when a
committee was appointed, to
prepare a public statement.
Members of the committee are:
0. K. Williams. Rock Hill; J. L.
Mims, Edgefield, and W. J.
Irwin, Chester.
To Prevent Accidents.
Motorists are being more
cautioned of the danger of crossing
railroad tracks by the
"barber pole" signs which have
been erected on all Southern
Railway crossings in a further
effort to attract attention of
reckless automobile drivers and
to prevent accidents at crossings.
The new device painted on
crossing gates is in accordance
with the standard recommended
by the American Railway Association,
and consists of alternate
black and white stripes
eight inches wide, running at an
angle of 45 degrees, which gives
the familiar "barber-pole" effect.
The Other Fellow's Responsibility.
A subscriber to The Times, residing
in a State whose citizenship
is about equally divided between
the Democratic and Re
1-1 A
puujican parues, senas us ine
following poem which is dedicated
to the "man who wants
the other man to shoulder his
responsibility":
"There are fellows who will
sit around and cuss and cuss,
just because Woodrow won't do
thus and thus?but when he calls
for men to go and help to whip
old Mexico, you cry and twist
and squirm and whine, and have
all diseases from rupture to curvature
of the spine. You are
great patriots who sit around in
the shade?some of you will
neither hoe nor spade. You make
fun of men who think and do;
the country would go to the devil
if it had to depend on you.
Thank God for men with nervemen
who are willing their country
to serve, in place of men who
uif o VAi in/1 onrl otioo i?l/l M nui/U.
U1V Ot \'U11V4 C4IIVI VUCO vm iUCAH u,
and then when duty calls are
too d ? cowardly to go."
Better Drop It.
The Record is sorry to note
that those who have been engineering
the "Catawba County"
proposition are reported as having
determined to go before the
novt aACuirm nf 1 A _
iivav wvwuiv/1 a vi tl iv, vJCIIVI ai nosembly
and ask for the repeal of
the "ill-formed counties act."
We believe there is a better plan
that will more largely benefit
this community and that is to
drop all ideas of a new county,
and ask the people of the Great
Falls and Fort Lawn sections to
annex themselves to York county.
We believe this action would
more largely benefit this section
than would a new county. Build
that Seaboard connection and
give those people over there a
direct route to Rock Hill, and we
would all of us soon see the benefit
of tha proposed plan. - Rock
Hill Record.

Community Fair a Success.
Hundreds of people throughout ?

the fair was a decided success, i 3
i In the Pleasant Valley school j
house were contained the field' s
i and hx)me exhibits in tastefully r
arranged booths with decorations

flowers and consisted of numer-1
ous varieties of fruits, vegetables,

field and orchard with appetizing *
specimens from the household
