'JO THE DEFEND \NTri A HOVE NAMED: Yon ere hereby summoned >ind quiri-d u> answer the complaint We desire to congratulate Civic league of Walterboro on the wonderful success of the May Festi val. The ladies of this League, un der the leadership of its president, Mrs John W Hammond, have shown what* can be accomplished by intelli gently directed effort. This proves the way for a county fair association, which is one of the certainties of the rear future. Of course this is good, and proper. Amen. WHY NOT ORGANIZE? To our mind there is a very fine opening just now for some work to be done either by the Town Council or a revivified Business league or Chamber of Commerce. If Walter boro is ever to amount to anything she must put aside some of the monumental selfishness and jeal ousies of many of those who are r looked upon as her business men. We have the field to do some good work; we have men with the ability to do, but there is lacking that unity of purpose essential to success in anything. Why not get over this and DO something? Just now there is a possiblity that Walterboro might interest a rail road that is being built in this county to come to Walterboro, and give us an outlet by way of water, thus secring competitive freight rates. Another thing: Very soon there will be built a trolley line from Sav annah to Charleston, which will p«a* somewhere not .many miles off from • • Walterboro. A little combined effort on the part of an organization of our business men would put them in touch with these proposed means of transporUtion, and we might thus unbottie our town and county. What say you. Business Meq of Walterboro? When you are in the mar ket we have, the Merchan dise you want at the prices you want to pur chase it, in the following lines: Shoes—Brown Shoe Go’s line, in the latest styles for Men, Women and Children.
