Unusual Arrangement Displayed At Fair The ■‘Grandmothers’’ old fashion ed flower garden displayed in a lazy susan dish and sponsored by Mrs. S. B. Loftis aS a contest in connection with the flower show at the Laurens county fair, drew much interest. There were many enties for the prize offered. Mrs Marvin Poole of this city w*on first place and Mrs. Ed Culbertson of Laurens, w*on second place in cor rectly naming 27 different flower ing plants in the dish. Mrs. Loftis has been asked by the flower judg es for the fair to enter an exhibit in the Laurens flower show to be held at the American Legion hut on October 29 and 30. Joanna Baptists Seek Sunday School Enlargement Joanna Baptist church is engag ed in a Sunday school enlargement campaign throughout the week of October 19-24, beginning class ses sions each evening at 7 o’clock.

Columbia four years ago in an ef- tye are better off largely because fort to stop the states rights move ment headed by Governor Thun- mond. His visit and speech were a flop. Mr. Barkley wanted the Demo cratic presidential nomination at the recent convention but the labor bosses said "no,’ and like many other hopefuls he was turned out in the green pastures. But he is still a party man, he says, and no doubt his talk will be on the theme, "we’ve never had it so good be fore.” There are many vital issues war enabled the New Deal to spend $368,530,000,009 between 1942 and 1946. The claims of Truman are all bunk. Isn’t it a pity “prosper ity” had to be bought with youth ful lives. These fighting boys in Korea certainly are not proclaim ing as Truman and Stevenson and their lieutenants—"we never had l it so good before.” WE DO ALL KINDS OF PRINTING —EXCEPT BAD CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO.
