We want the members of the union in this county to feel that this department of The Press and Standard belongs to them and to use it accordingly. We want it filled each week with live news from -over the county, and would especi ally urge the secretary of each local to send reports promptly of every meeting. See to it that YOUR local is well reported. We also wish the presidents of the locals as well as the president of the *'0 county Union to use it to make their official announcements as to the time of meetings and any other matters that are likely to come up requiring official notice. In other words, it is intended to be a Far mer’s Union Department in all this Implies. / - * Last Wednesday Newberry voted to issue $40,000 in 40 year bonds, and also a 2 mills additional tsx for school purpose. Speaking of the results of this election The Herald and News says: “The result of this election is the best advertisement that this com munity has had since the establish ment of the present system of public schools some twenty years ago* There is nothing that so helps a com munity and attracts the best people to it as good schools. The money which we put into this is an invest ment which pays large dividends.” Commenting further upon this election The Herald and News also expresses the same idea we have held, that if we can once secure the school bonds there will be no trouble in getting the other things we need. Let our people aee what a judicious expenditure of $20,000 will do in im proving educational conditions here and they will have, then, faith in other movements looking to greater Walterboro: The Herald and New® says: . „ We believe that the voting ef the bonds for the improvement and en- of our school system the voting of bonds for the extension of our i^etam, and also for the improvement of our itrets and tide- thankful for the lessons learned on the cooling board at noon or by the fine knot fire at night.

In other words for so much per month his energies for a certain time each day is sold to his employer. Now, in a great majority of these cases, the service rendered is worth a great deal more to the young man employed than tq the employer,— not perhaps from the viewpoint of dollars and cents, but from the view point of experience. How many young men of your acquaintance have become owners of the bust nesses they have learned as employ ers! When a young man is employ ed, therefore, no matter what he does whether to plow, clerk, travel, work in a mill or factory, he should give his employer the best that is in him. He should study his em ploy^r’s interests as if they were his own—not that it makes so much dif ference, perhaps, to the employer’s business, but it makes all the differ ence in the world to the young man. His employer is making dollars while the young man is making character and reputation. Another thing, the time you have sold to your em ployer belongs to him; you have no right to waste it. Suppose at the end of the month he should pay you in dollars that had holes in them, ypu would kick, wouldn’t you? So should your employer if you give him day’s work with holes in them made by your being tardy, by waste of a few minutes here and there during the day. Young man, lean to count ONE wherever you are or whatever you do. Slight not your work; waste not your time nor opportunity. Learn all your employer knows of hie businem, if poaribie, and if not, learn all you can.of your part of it Bo honest with yourself and your employer; -4^-- SICK ALL WINTER SUFFERED FROM BAD STOMACH AND SEVERE O0UGH-DO& TORED WITHOUT BENEFU- VERMOHT MAN WAS FINALLY RESTORED TO HEALTH BY VINOL u Aboot a year ago l began to run down in health, lost appetite tod flesh end suffered from in digestion.
