The greatest event of years in Colleton county will be the County Fair,—Nov. 11-13. * Another shooting scrape to the credit of Colleton county—the sale of liquor in the county cannot stop too soon. There are two . things you never want to pay any attention to- abuse and flattery. The first can’t harm you and the second can’t help you.— Farm and Factory. We are in receipt of an invitation to be present at a barbecue to be gbren by the city of Spartanburg October 29, in connection with the G. C. and 0. railroad to that city. This is the way to do things. If Walterboro only flad the Spartan burg spirit! Why not have it? Wc must have written a rather creditable editorial sometiome since on the subject of making a deposit in a local bank. It was so good that our Calhoun contemporary, used it verbatim, and forgot to give credit for it. It did, however, change the name of “Colleton” to “Calhoun.” MAKING G(X)D. Solicitor Puerifoy has scored a good record in the work of the present term of the court of general se&ions which is practically com pleted. In 60 rases he scored con victions in 36, there being only 10 acquittals, the remaining cases hav- ‘ >ng been nol pressed or continued. When it is remembered that convic tions usually run from 16 to 20 per cent., the‘record of Mr Puerifoy speaks well for his work.—Charles ton Correspondent of The State. people—and this is what The Press and Standard does. It has more than twice as large a circulation as any other newspaper in the county has ever had. and is. therefore, a cor respondingly good advertising medi- um. We would urge our readers to read carefully the advertisements each week and to patronize those whose names are among our adver tisers. They are your friends, as well as this paper's, and you are in debted to them for a part of your subscription. Did you ever think what the subscription price of a newspaper would be if it were not *0 for the advertisements? One would get off light at $2.50 or $3.

She was bom August 14th, 1908, and was one year, one month and nine days old. She was loved by all who knew her and her bright ftmiles and dear IRtle hands will be missed by her mother and father as well as many others. Our darling little Virginia was too precious a gem for this sin ful world, no the good angels have borne her to her Heavenly home above where she now awaits to greet us. Like most babies, she was the pride of her home and the flower of her family. She has many friends who loved her dearly and who sym pathize with the bereaved mother and father. We all loved her very dearly, but the good Master loved her best, so we will have to submit to His will. Dearest Virginia, thou hast left us And your loss we deeply feel, But its God that comforts us. He can all our sorrows heal. Aunt.
