(flieram (Hiramr!? \ yoL 25 CHERAW, S. C., AUGUST 11, 1921 NO. 40 \ 1 1 COTTON BLAZING TBAIL FOB COOPERATIVE MARKETING What The Grower Want* to Know. I Who can belong to the Association? A. Only men who grow cotton, or who receive cotton as rent I Who will manage the Association? A. The directors, who will be elected by the members, and who must them-1 selves be members, and have cotton to sell. Whatever they do will be done for the benefit of the cotton of all the members as well as for the benefit of their own cotton. How will these directors be elected? A. The State will be divided into ten districts. Each district will have one director. The members in that district will vote at a called election either in person or by mail, to say who their director shall be. , But there are eleven directors. Who is the eleventh man? A. He will be appointed by the Governor of the State. Who will sell the cotton? A. The, directors will employ the best tech-j nical cotton salesman they can find for this purpose, and will oversee their work. What is the membership tee? A. $3.00 This is the first and last membership fee ever to be paid. What becomes of this money? A Whatever part of it is necessary will be spent in creating the organization.' That part which remains will go into the treasury of the new organization,! to help start business. The member, stdp campaign will be carried on by the volunteer help of interested growers just as far as possible, so that the membership fee can be turned over to the permanent organization, when formed. Will the directors be bonded? A. I If the members so desire. In any case the Sales Manager and tye Treasurer will be bonded. What are the obligations of the mem ~ ber? A. To market all of h's cotton through the Association for a period of five years beginning with the 1922 crop. Why the five Year Contract? A. There are several reasons. One is to insure that all of the members stick. Another is to in>;re that the Association will have a definite number of bales to sell, so that it can make good contracts with mills over a period of years. Another reason is that good salesmen cannot be secured unless they ere assured of .permanent jobs. Can a member buy cotton to sell through the association? A. Yes, when necessary to complete a bale or to handle a crop in which he has an interest. No member v ill be permitted to speculate through the association, however, on the cotton of non-members. Can a member sign up for half his crop? A. He cannot. How will the cotton be sold? A. When delivered to the Association, each bale will be graded and classed, and put in a pool with other bales of the same grade and class. These pools of the same grade and class will then be sold at the highest possible market price, and as directly as possible to spinners. How does the cotton pool work? A. All cotton of similar grade and class is put into one lot. Each pool continues for one season. If all of the pool is not sold or contracted for a' once, some may be sold at one time and some at another, all at the be possible price. If parts of the pool are sold at different prices, these prices will be averaged, and the average value per pound secured for all the cotton in the pool, will be paid to each member. It is not fair that one member of the pool should have either a higher or lower j>rlce than every other member, snce neither the Association nor any member is re. sponsible for fluctuations in the market. What is the. penalty for failure to sell through the Association? A. A penalty of five cents per pound will be collected from any member who fails to market his cotton thorugh the Association; an injunction will be se. cured to prevent further breach of contract; and also a decree will be secured to require specified performance of the contrct. When will the membership Marketing Agreement which the member signs be in effect? A. As soon as enough members are secured to make sure that the Association will have as oa inn 000 hales tr? sell. U1UV.1I no ivvtv?v What if less than 400,000 bales are secured. A. If this number is not secured by May 1, 1922, all members who previously signed will be given a chance to draw out. Those who do draw out will get back in cash the amount of their membership fee that is still unspent. If, after all who wish have withdrawn, more than 200,000 bales still xemain, the Assoaiation may go ahead. If less than 200,000 bales remain the Association must quit right there, and the money remaining in the treasury will be divided pro-rata among all members. Who are the members of the organ | ANOTHER DOLLAR BAR. GAIN DAY COMING ^ Since the Dollar Bargain Day held in Cheraw on August 2nd was such a success from the standpoint of the majority of the merchants offering bargains and the custoemrs benefited by it, many of our merchants are anxious to have a bigger and better one at an early date. They say their cus. tomers were so well pleased with the idea and that the movement is a pull, ing together for Cheraw so they are willing to sacrifice profits that day for | the good of the town, their customers and the advertisement of their business. We hope that all our merchants will come in on this one which we will call COMMUNITY DOLLAR DAY to be held early in September. Watch for announcement of the date and then for the advertisements of the merchants. CHRONICLE MAN LOYAL. In the newspaper business there are times when reporters are "put to it" to find any thing of interest to write about and thiB is especially true of towns which can support only weeklies. Realizing our need for "copy" this week Mr. E. Gilbert Smith, of the Chronicle's force proved his loyalty by breaking into the Post Office. We' don't mean he broke into the place1 where the mail is kept but into the' lobby whose doors stand open at all hour's and thus gate us the material for this story. It seems that about 9:30 o'clock1 Tuesday night when several automo-' biles were in front of the Lyric thea-J tre headed toward the Post Office casting their blinding lights in that direction. Mr. Smith got out of a car to' go into the Post Office. Thinking he' was directly in front of the door, he started to go in, looking toward the' theatre and the blinding lights. It was not until he had struck the j big plate glass, next to the door, that he realized he had missed the opening and was being cut and bruised by falling glass. Mr. Smith sustained only' a slight cut on the head pnd bruises on his leg and arm esctping what might easily have been serious injury. .. . * ... Due to the unusual circumstances that led to the accident we feel sure Mr. Smith will pardon our mentioning the fact that he was miserably sober. ization Committee? A. Alist of their names will be found on the insida cover of a booklet. What becomes of this Committee when the A?.?o:iaioi is finally ctm. pletely orgicJzed? A Its members step down and opt, and turn the completed association over to the directors who will be elected by the mem. bers. Is the Membership Contarct binding when the Association is completely organized? A. It will be so binding that the members must die, move from South Carolina, or quit growingcotton in order to get out from1 under it. Where does the member deliver bis cotton? A. Either to a nearby warehouse or for shipment, as directed by the Association. Will there be a warehouse at every shipping point? A. Probably not, though there may be one or more in every county. When is the member paid for his cotton? A. Part payment may be secured as a loan as sooas the cotton reaches the warehouse and is graded and classed, so that its full value is known. This loan value is the amount agreed upon with the banks for cotton and the seasonal trend of the cotton market Further payments are made as the cotton in the pool of particular grade is marketed until the whole pool is sold out. Will the Association hold cotton? A. Yes, if in the opinion of the directors and the sales manager it is necessary. The Association is not a holding, Association, however, and its plain purpose is to sell cotton as quickly as possible, and on the best market. What about remnants or parts of a bale? A. The member having such a remnant may sell it in the seed wherever he likes, or he may buy enough cotton to make up a bale, and then market the bale through the Association. Will there be any Local Associations?. A. There will be informal Local Associations with proper officers in every community or district, as desired by members. The officer* of these Local Associations will have the right to advise the directors of the State Association in all their meetintra I When will the Association start business? A. Not later than October 1st, 1922, and as much earlier as ' possible. How much can the Association charge for handling, grading, classing and selling the cotton? A. The Y. P. C. A. Surprise. Good Program Promised. Tuesdav evening, after a very in. tereMing ,?ngiam', th js > atending the meeting of the Young Peoples Chris, tian Association were surprised by re celving an invitation to the home of Mr linr* Mrs Kerr where thev were seryid ice cream and cake and enjoyed a short informal reception. This was intended to emphasize the fact that this meeting marks the beginning of the Association's second year. The meeting at the Methodist church this coming Tuesday evening will be ' conducted by the young ladies and th program includes the following spec. ial features: Recitations by Miss Marion Martin and Mi9s Blanche Poston; Readings by Miss Belle Hurt and Miss Lucile Hurt; and special music by Miss Kate Covington; Misses Rutha Finlayson an* Sue Frances Lytton, and Misses Pauline Parker and Nannie Brasington. , Meeting begins at 8:00 o'clock. Methodist Sunday SehMl Ray. At church hour 11:15 o'clock last Sundivy the Methodist Church held Sunday School Day or what was formerly called Children's Day. The church was filled with people from ?.11 J"? ?tkn aVAMloflD ail UCUUlIllliauuilD auu tuc caviviovo were1 thoroughly enjoyed biv those present. The program consisted of special musical, numbers by both the children and the older members of the Sunday School, i'eotta;loi)s. singing by the entire sohool and illustrated readings. All of which were given with enthusiasm and showed thorough preparation. .Too much credit cannot be given to those in charge of the program or the children for doing their part beautifully. .Mr. H. A. McLeod is the Superin tendant of the Sunday school and Mrs. B. Finlayson was chairman of the committee working up the program for Sunday School Day. , o Snake Occupies Bedroom. Sunday night while Mrs. J. S. Hartsell was entertaining company on her front piazza a noise, which sounded as if someone was breaking in, crime from the bedroom upstairs. Mr. Geo. Hartzell investigated and found that a big black snake had gotten into the room and was on the wash stand pushing off soap dishes, glasses, etc. Upon the arrival of Mr. Hartzell tlie snake quickly dropped to the floor and coll-j ed but was quickly checked in his wild career bv a pistol ball fired by Mr.| Hartzell. The snake measured about! 6 ft. We can't tell how he happened to be occupying the Bed Room. Mr. Jno. C. Evans is on a business trip to Milwaukee, Chicago and Rochester this week. e?? Mrs. J. M. Witsell and son, Mitchell, have returned to their home in Walterboro, S. C. after a visit to the former's parents Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Duval 1. . > actual cost only. How will the Association handle crop mortgages? A. If the crop >' mortgaged before the member joins, he cannot include the mortgaged cot. ton in the amount to be marke' through the association without the consent of the mortgagee, who is the man who holds the mortgage. A regular legal form for such consent will be furnished by the Association. If the grower joins before the crop mortgage is made, the mortgage will be handled under a blanket agreement between the Association and the banks and other money lenders, so that when the cotton is marketed through the Association, all advances and other payments, so long as necessary, will be made through the mortgagee, and the division of the money w{$ be by agreement between the mortgagee and the member just as is now done when mortgaged cotton is sold. Legal forms for the blanket agreement between the Association and the mortgagee will be prepared by the Agricultural Committee of the South Carolina Bank er's Association and may be had by writing to the South Carolina Cotton Growers' Cooperative Association, Columbia, S. C. Where will the Association sell cotI t^n? A. Anywhere the directors de-j ciae, either in this country or abroad, and as directly to spinners as possible. Can a tenant farmer join when his landlord does not? A. Yes. If the landlord is not a member the tenant must buy the landlord's share and sell all through the Association, or he must arrange with the landlord to divide the cotton in the bale. If the landlord J joins and the tenant does not, the reI verse rule will apply. It is much det sired that both landlord and tenant shall join. i Graves In Old 8fc David's Cemetery.

STYLE SEWS RIGHT OFF FIFTH AVENUE They Are Wearing Black crepe de Chine combined with white h^? been noted several times. Yesterday at the Rltz was a black crepe de Chine bound with white and trimmed from the hips down with accordeon pleated flounces, also bound in white. Figured .dresses, printed chiffons', crepes, cretonnes and all novelty effects are popular at Newport Saratoga's opening day stressed purples. Felt and satin hats usually in black are increasing daily. Lace and glycerine ostrich trails are worn to a considerable extent. Drop earrings, hoop and straight effects are worn for evening. Scarlet hats are being worn at the resorts and some of these not,ed lately are velvet. One model in a softly draped sailor shape had a flat ostrich 1im on the brim In back, i During the few cool stormy days many knitted wraps made their appearance in town, those of brown i iades being conspicuous. Satin striped Canton crepe frocks live been noted in town made with tie stripes running horizontally and favoring the wide sleeve. A! rust colored one was bound in navy Geor gette, which also faced the sleeves. Dresses of brown with beige stockings are seen frequently for evening wear. "Wbrn at the Ritz roof was a brown Canton frock with enormously wide sleeves, and the softly bloused waist belted low.

The skirt was filled in at either side by accordeon pleated chiffon showing numerous vertical rows of the same net ruffling. The short sleeved waist portion carried out the same trimming note and was made in surplice fashion. o CAROLINA FOOTBALL TO BE FREE OF INJURIES Columbia, S. C., August 11.?That Sol Metzger, Carolina's football coach, is determined to leave no stone unturned to make the coming football season a success at the University is clearly proven by his recent trip to Columbia from his home in Pennsyl-J vania for the purpose of conferring! with the Gamecock authorities in regard to many matters*that could well have been handled upon his return here early in September, were Metzger not wide awake. Metzger was particularly pleased with the accounts given hllm about the new men who will "be on the Carolina squad this fall. He and "Wop' McGowan, his new line coach, had a long conference over their plans for the fall and they have arrived at a definite understanding as to the entire development of the squad. Some of the players of last season who will be in Columbia this fall are going to be called upon to assist these two coaches in grooming the new men in the system of play Carolina has now definitely adopted. Metzger is particularly anxious that the Freshman be trained in the fundamentals of his system by some of the graduates of last year in order to permit McGowan and himself to devote their full time to rounding a team Id shape as early as possible. In this way several weeks can be saved in the development of the team. That no candidate for the squad can say he has not been given every opportunity to make good is a foregone conclusion. Every fellow who reports will be moved tip to the testing grounds as quickly as he is pronounc ed ready by the assistants to Metzger and McGowan. Metzger is a stickler for having a man not only in shape'to stand his first scrimmage but also to have him skilled in such matters as the right way to tackle, interfere and charge. This avoids many injuries and permits of rapid development. Tha his plan worked better than ever before any other plan did at Carolina was clearly proven last season when he lost no varsity men from injuries for his ,big games. According to Metzger men who are "" n <naA onH /tnaoheri are rarelv "CU tiaiuvu Wliu vwMVMV. ? hurt in football. He claims to have worked out a system of fundamentals that really prevent injuries and his record not only at Carolina, but at Pennsylvania, Washington and Jefferson and Wtest Virginia back up his word. o NOTICE We want to again call attention to our readers that the Chronicle needs your subscriptions. All markers on paper that do not bear date mark have not paid subscriptions. Look at yours and let us hear from you. Shall Cheraw Have a Choral Society? This is a question that can be answered by music-lovers, who express their love of the art in song. Not only those with big voices, but all who sing and love to sing. ' A number of interested people have wondered why Cheraw did not possess a musical club or society,as so many towns have, and the question jhas been repeatedly asked why we do not organize the stagers into a regular, systematic, working society. | So ^e are going to attempt this very thing, and on Tuesday afternoon of next week, Aug. 16th, we should like to meet, at the Town Hall, at 30 all persons from 14 years up who sing, and who care to talk over this j matter, considering it from a busi ness standpoint as well as a beneficial and pleasurable one. i The Idea is to Join the Society for a term of four months, so as to include Thanksgiving and Christmas mus'ic, and to begin cantata practice in connection with simple part songs, which could be used for secular or religious occasions, wherever needed. ' Feeling sure that members of all I the church choirs will enter into this movement?in fact a number have already expressed themselves as very anxious for it?this notice is for outsiders as well. Those who have not joined any choirs, but have good vol. ces. We are especially anxious for the young ladies and young men, girls and boys to take an interest in this undertaking, and believe they would derive rnuch pleasure and some benefit froffi/it. ( All who heard the Pennant Operetta several years ago, given in the Town Hhll, and "The? Wonderful I^ight'', Christmas Cantata, sung by members of all the choirs, in the Presbyterian church year before last, will agree that Cheraw has enough musical talent to form a good Choral society; ff a sufficient number, of music lov. era enter into an agreement to work together for this uplifting purpose. Don't forget the place of meeting, sing (even though each voice may the time, and that we want all who not be a strong solo vojce) from fourteen years up.
