something for it, Mr. Supervisor.
The Other Fellow.
The other fellow is a skunk,
of course, until you get to know
him. He is your competitor.
He uses unfair means to Ret
business, cuts prices and produces
a low grade of work. All
this you say, and more. He
trades out his accounts and you
suspect he is a porch-climber by
j night.
Well, you have not anything
on him, for while you are thinking
these things about him he is
probably thinking the same
things about you. Consequently
you Dotn go about with knives
in your boots and blood in your
eyes, and you are both Renerally
miserable. If you hear that he
is cuttinR prices against you,
you shut your eyes and slash
another chunk out of them to
keep the wheels moving.
Then some day you meet him
qway from the field of battle and
voq begin to wonder if he is as
black as you have painted him.
lie shows signs of being human,
and your convictions concerning
his night shift begin to waver.
Pretty soon he begins to complain
to you in confidence that
some of your prices are too low.
and then light begins to dawn
on you: He has been thinking
the same things concerning you
that you have been thinking
aboyt him. If you both have
good sense that is the moment
which marks the end of your
mutual suspicions and distrust
and the beginning of co-operation.
Give your competitor the
benefit of the doubt. He walks
and talks like a human being,
and for all you know he may
need nothing but a hint .that
you, too, are human, to make
your relations more pleasant and
profitable.
It is twice as much fun to have
your competitor listed among
your friends as it is to have him
blacklisted amonc vnnr pn<?mioa
and it is ten times more profitable.?Ex.

Please Work This Road.
The Times man, along with
hundreds of other citizens of
this city and community, would
like to see the township supervisor
get his force together and
put in a day or two days work
on the road leading from the
incorporate limits to the Catawba
river bridge. This road is in
very bad shape, and especially
so at a point just beyond the
home of Mr. W. B. Hoke. There
are holes there over which one
can scarcely pass with an auto.
Riit fVio rnnri na a urhnlp in in
urgent need of work. This road
is of sand-clay construction and
was built by the York county
chaingang. It stood up well for
a year or more, but the heavy
traffic over it and the washing
rains have caused ruts in many
- places and it is no longer a desirable
place to negotiate either
for business or pleasure. Proper
treatment with a road machine
for a couple of days now would
save the road and again put in
the good shape in which the

The Ratchford company of
Hickory Grove. York county, has
been commissioned by the secretary
of State, for a general
mercantile business. The proposed
capital stock is $4,000.
Petitioners are W. Mason McConnell
of Yorkville, and Clyde
Ratchford of Sharon.
Rev. W. R. Bouknight of Fort
Mill, is conducting a series of
evangelical services at West
Main Street Methodist church in
Rock Hill. The meeting will
continue about two weeks. L.
W. Shealy of Chester, a well
known evangelistic singer is in
charge of the singing in connection
with the services.'
Grady Canby, a white man
about 24 years of age, who has
been living at the Lockmore
cotton mill for some time past,
is in the county jail charged
with making improper proposals
to a young married woman of
the mill village, the wife of a
well known operative of the
Lockmore.
James Thompson, the old negro
who was arrested at Lockhart
recently for the rr.urder of
Isaiah Jeter some fifteen years
ago, has been taken to Chester
for trial. It turns out that the
place of the killing on Mr. W. C.
Thomson's place, is just across
the York county line in Chester
county.
Thos. W. Boyd, county supervisor,
said Monday that the
county commi8ioner8 will go to
Wright's ferry on Thursday,
where they will meet the Mecklenburg
county commissioners
for the purpose of locating the
bridge to be built over Catawba
river somewhere in the vicinity
of Wright's ferry. York county
will pay one-third of the cost of
the bridge.
Mr. C. L. Cobb and other interested
citizens of Rock Hill,
have started a movement for the
building of another cotton mill
in that city. Mr. Cobb, after a
visit to Yorkville on July 4, and
seeing what was doing here,
wired Mr. Alexander Long, then
in New York, and proposed the
building of another mill. Mr.
Long wired back telling Mr.
Cobb to go ahead, that he would
stand for half the money. Mr.
Cobb and others are "coinir
ahead."
Automobile license fees for the
second quarter of 1919 have been
received by the State treasurer
from the State highway commission.
These fees, collected
between April 1 and June 30,
amounted to $38,230.15. making
an aggregate of $278,755.55 for
the first six months. York
county's share for the first three
months (SO per cent of the
amount paid in by the county),
was $5,206.80, and for the second
three months, $1,069.57,
making a total for the first half
of the year of $6",276.37.

' /Ti Cltse Camp Jacksai.
Camp Jackson will be discontinued
as a demobilization
camp, according to the pretty
well authenticated rumor from
Washington, says the Columbia
State of Friday. There had
been a rumor to that effect for a
few hours yesterday, but a communication
from Washington
seems to have settled the rennrt
for a fact This is to go into
effect on July 15. As all of the
expeditionary forces have already
returned except a few
scattered remnants here and
there, several camps throughout
the country have been
ordered to give over the demobilization
activities and the
few remaining soldiers yet to
come will be concentrated in a
small number of demobilization
camps that are still working.
The only remaining demobilization
camp for this section is;
Camp Gordon at Atlanta. All
soldiers from southeastern seaboard
will be sent there. In
each section of the country
there will be such a camp.
This means the large machinery
and personnel of the present
camp will go elsewhere.
However, the same will not
be deserted for besides the
regular guards, the Forty-eighth
infantry, there will still continue
the Transport Corps, the Ordnance
Corps, and the Construction
division or the army
school will in all probability be
placed at this camp. The camp
1 will still be a busy place.
