WKAR COTTON (iOODH
The Governor of South Carolina
has appointed the week, of April 2027
as "wear cotton goods" week.
During the month of ApiHl there will
be several exhibitions uf locally-made
products, including cotton goods; n >tably
the exhibits to* be held in Columbia,
Greenville and Anderson. P
is the idea of many leading South
Carolinians that we should during
this month make a special effort to
emphasise the "live at home" movement.
In cooperation with this idea, trie
Cotton Manufacturers Association >f
South Carolina, as is their custom,
are throwing the weight of their in^
fluence behind thU effort. They are
contributing to the cause an advertisement,
appearing in The Chronicle
and nearly every other paper in the
state.
The cotton manufacturing industry
is so large that they accept mo?v
than the ordinary share of thy .responsibility
in helping re-establish
econr mic conditions in the state, i?nd
all South Carolinians should gladly
and enthusiastically support them in
their of forts. We would like to see
the newspapers in each eommunits
initiate a movement among the merchants
and women to display cotton J
good - and advertise them freely dur-1
ing "wear cotton good.-" week. We i
won like to see each community hi gan
d it: clubs and groups to forwar
hi movement, and arouse t'he
public to trie importance of cotUwi.
It is in the interest of prosperity
for all South Curolinians that we
hasten the permanent return to popularity
of cotton goods.
Spring
This is the time of the year when
the town man begins to wonder if
the dear little fish down in the creek
aren't getting hungry. ~ Clinton
Chronicle.
As long as the people of this slate
continue importing food products to
the value of $150,000,000 a year that
ought to be produced in this state, we
are going to continue to squawk about
hard times, taxes, etc.?Yorkville Enquirer.
