THURSDAY, MARCH -11TH, .1920. ‘Time to Call a Halt” “Hearty congratulations on ‘Time to Call a Halt.’ The town needs just such a live newspaper man as you to publish these things. Probably with a few more ‘Halts’ from The” Barn well People . . . so, Mr. Ed itor, let us hear from you, please.” The editor appreciates the encour agement contained in the above com- » •••»— — munication, which was received years week. It was unsigned, however, and for that reason certain parts have been “deleted by the censor.” The life of the average newspaper man is no bed of roses, both finan cially and otherwise, and to be told, even occasionally, that his efforts in behalf of the community are appre ciated by some of his readers makes up in large measure for the vast a- mount of criticism of his various shortcomings. One of the best ways to “swat the fly” is to vote for the bond issue that will furnish the money to install a much needed sewerage system. /Help Barnwell keep its place as the best town ta Western Carolina by supporting the hood issue for and paving.

Notice From Barnwell County Board Of Registration. Wherr Allendale county was cut'off from Barnwell county, it was a nec essary consequence that voting pre cincts on or near the new county line would need rearrangement. In order to accomodate voters the legislature decided to open a new voting precinct called Meyer’s Mill precinct, for the benefit of voters wmo had formerly voted at either Robbins or Dunbarton, but who lived nearer Meyar’s Mill than to either of the above precincts. The Barnwell County Board of Rrgis- lration desires it ta he kpoww to all voters who live nearer Meyer’s Mill thus to either Ruhloao mm Dunhartou muLiaLb -'Tnr m hit. ( HAS. A.
