THE BARNWELL PEOPLE Entered at the post office at Barnwell, S. C„ as second-class matter. B. P. DAVIES, Editor and Proprietor. THURSDAY, APRIL 21ST, 1921. ’Thin Issue of The People. &CARRY This issue of The People contains 16 pafjes, in marked contrast to the abbreviated four pajres of the past several weeks. EijjM pages are de voted to Williston, her merchants and the chautauqua, and it is sincerely hoped that it will accomplish the pur pose for which it was intended. In the other eight pages will be fountf local, county,- State, national and world news. On account of the rush in issuing the paper, it was neces sary to cut short somewhat the a- mount of local happenings. However, we feel sure that the other features will more than offset that. One particular feature to which we, desire to call attention is the depart ment devoted to the affairs of The American Legion. We have decided to make this a permanent feature in The People, and these artic^s will be supplemented from time to time by items from the local Post of The Le gion. We believe this department will be of special interest to all ex- service men and their friends. Next week we expect to begin pub lication of a fascinating serial story, “The Mystery of the Silver Dagger.” It is written by a well known author and will keep the reader guessing from start to finish. State, national and world news is Well covered, The People, We believe, being the only paper in Barnwell County giving its readers this service, The paper from now on will contain AT LEAST eight pages each week and quite often we hope to publish an even larger number. If you are fyitf" already a subscriber, it will pay you to get your name on our subscription list at once in order not to miss any of thr g;/jd\thins;;' we have in store for you. The price is only $1.50 a year in advance, and the serial story alone is worth that. .J. .J. ♦♦♦ .J, J .y 'i v iVK V ... ‘ Y | Buy Your Groceries at t t i T T X t 1 J t ± X ♦ ❖ f f I x x x T x T x x x ♦s* A The Store That Reduced the 7 r, ■ r ■ x . . ■■■ ' r '.'. • High Cost of Livihg in Barnwell Best Self-rising Flour, 24 lbs.__$1.25 Best Cracked Rice, per lb. 4c.

One of the most enjhyable social affairs lately was that given by Mr. A. J. Bennett Tuesday evening of last week to some of ^ his gentlemen friends. This was an old fashioned fish supper served at his home. There were some 70 invitations sent out and a large number assembled to enjoy Mr. Bennett’s hospitality. The event was one of ti.v series of <ret- togethi r men s socials which started some five months ago by the men of the Methodist Church. They are proving very popular and considera ble interest is manifested by (he men who attend. Mr. Bennett proved a very genial host and every one went homo feeling happier for having gone.
