A subscriber over in Georgia writes us
. as follows: "I beg leave to say to you

I ore can write more interestingly when
paid in advance."

Homes ior delegates to tue auuuai scoaiuu
of the Orangeburg district conference,
which convenes here Wednesday, April
18th, are at work, and from the hearty
expaessions of our people generally, we
feel sure that the homes of all our people,
regardless of denomination, will be
opened to these visitors.
City council is having a ditch dug
which is to carry the water from the
Northern part of town to the Edisto river.
Last week we stated that work was being
done on the main ditch which drains
the town, but it was decided to dig this
new ditch on the other side of town
rather than attempt to deepen the main
ditch. This new ditch will be expensive,
but there has been considerable complaint
as to drainage from citizens on the
North side of the railroad, and it is hoped
this new ditch will remedy matters.
We would be glad if our subscribers
would watch carefully the dates on the
label of their paper. Always look at it
the next week after you pay money and
see that we have you credited with the
amount paid. Mistakes will happen in
the best regulated establishments, and
The Herald is no exception to the rule.
We are very careful with our mailing
lists and use every effort to avoid mistakes,
but one little figure will change
your date a whole year. Watch your
dates and save us both trouble and we
' will appreciate it very much.

Orangeburg District Conference.
It is very important that the visitors
who will soon be here to attend the session
of the Orangeburg district conference
should be favorably impressed with
the town and its people. Our citizens
should assist the committee who are out
securing homes for delegates by readily
entertaining as many as circumstances
will warrant. All of us should want to
impress visitors favorably, and in no way
can we do this better than by opening
our homes and treating them nicely.
Don't embarrass the committee in their
labors, but help them out.
County Board Meeting.
The county board of commissioners
held a regular quarterly meeting in the
court house here last Monday, Supervisor
E. C. Bruce and Commissioner J. Wms.
Carter being present.
A petition was presented for a public
road from Hightowers mill to Salem
church, which was postponed on account
of the absence of Commissioner J. J.
Fogle.
The contract for State prisoners now
on the county chain gang was signed up,
and a number of claims against the conn*
ty were approved. The board then adj
journed.
