WILL VOTE ADDITIONAL TAX A notice is published this we«-k railing for a special election in Lit tle Swamp school district.

The elec tion will be held at Berea school house on Saturday, June 17. As a result he became thoroughly convinces! that, in spite of the low- price conten’ions of the big stores, local merchants • throughout his own state are giving their customfrs more for their money. What is true with respect to his state is equally true with other states, and in this community. Now and then there may be some merit in the statement so frequently made that large establishments buy certain goods cheaper than local merchants. But those prim ipally Interested in promoting this view fail to .mention the more important fact that the lo cal dealer’s cost of doing business is always much lower than—^sometime? even less than half—that of th-* large city stores. • On the basis of value—what the customer gets for his money—any progressive local merchant Is willing to compare his merchandise and prices with the merchandise and price* of any long-distance dealer and abide by results. < There may be times when certain articles seem to be priced high. But when the goods represented by. such price* are compared with goods purchased at lower figure* value is usually found in good meas ure. Thus the whole matter reverts *o the question of value rather than the mere item of price. Local merchants ask no favors They simply desire that their Serv ice be measured on a value bas;.«. W'hen this is done they know their ability to meet any competition. * • — — VISITED BEAUFORT WITH CHAIRMAN LaurepK UtsAv^ inspector for dis trict No. 2\ef Lhe State Board of Fisheries, was called to Beaufort last week with Dr E.
