The luck of refrigerator cars for
the shipment of the strawberries
this year lias never been satisfactorily
explained and probably nover
will bo. It would hardly seem that
the transportation companies would
bring about such a thing willfully as
it appears to be to their interest
to encourage the business, but it
must be remembered that monied
corporations sometimes have purposes
in view that cannot be understood
and foreseen by the common
man.

The progress Conway is making

better things. For a long timo the
town was dead. It took almost
acres to boat it into the heads of
some that Conway had possibilities.
After desperate struggles there was
an awakening some half a dozen
years ago. Things were started
upward and have been on the upward
tendency ever since. The tobacco
industry did its part. A colony
was planted and Conway is fast
becoming one of the great trucking
centers of the future. New enterprises
have sprung up on hitherto
barren sands where nothing was
ever looked for. Brick and mortar
and the carpenter's square and
hammer have accomplished wonders
in ^thc appearance of the place.
Greater improvements are now
easier to accomplish. To reach still
greater results it is only necossary
to keep everlastingly at it. -The
good work is just ahead.

Onk of the worst of all men in
creation is he who is forever finding
fault with the way his neighbor's
business is conducted. Nothing has
over been done or ever will be done
# that this man cannot do better.
Nothing that is evor done for him
ever suits him because nothing ov^
or comes up to his immensely high
ideals of perfection. He is always
bcSWU!'and always sees
further into the mysterious future
than anybody else in the woru*. hf,
any misfortune come to you, if you
fail in any undertaking, this smartest
of mankind always exclaims "I
know it would happen, yes I told
you so!" There arc plenty of his
kind who know far better how to
run a newspaper than the editor
does. Instead of supporting the
paper of his town that has done
moro toward the public good in one
week than tho "know all" has done
in his entire life, and moro than he
ever will do, ho goes about speaking
all the time of its imaginary
faults and trying to defame it in
every way ho can. If you observe
such a man vou see that he generally
has less of this world's goods,
has fewer bviends, and accomplishes
rs. v*fnan his much tplked of
jtCT^Irs'. ft While he is talking and
findin?*Yault the other man is at
work trying to do something and
watching his own concerns. The
moral is that the best rule in this
world is for each man to mind his
own business and give no unneeeson?t.

In Kcply to W. T. B.
Mr. Kditcr: ? Please allow inc
space in the columns of your pafier
in reply to an article written concerning
my section of the Conway
and Pauly Swamp road from Pauly
to the ei^ht mile |>ost signed '* W. T.
13."
I think if there lias been a petition
gotten up for a new overseer, W. T.
13. must have been at the head of it
and the Supervisor knowing the nature
of W. T. 13. could not have paid
any attention to it. I have beon
overseer on that section of road for
three years, and this makes the
fourth and 1 never have had any
trouble with any or e on the road until
W. T 13. moved in this section
last winter and even yet with all his
influence, there is no one kicking except
"W. T. If '

Ibis's and worms are playing
havoc with the corn.
It is said the early bird gets the
worm, but who got it out of the
strawberries this spring or was it
a bug this time.
Which do we need the worst, a
bridge across the Waccamaw river
or a court house? We need both,
give us one or both. Some of our
farmers are planting corn or peanuts
in their tobacco ground, we
think this a good idea, because we
seldom see a hog with a cigarette
in his mouth.
Mr. Editor could the farmers not

In replv to Mr. J. M. Oliver of
last week I will say that it seems as
if (juitc a small sentence out of my
narrow mind has touched his, for
all lie tries to represent it to be
so wide
If Mr. Oliver wants the bridge and
is so aroused about it, why did'nt
he build the bridge when he was in
oftico? He want? to do the barking
and some one else do the biting.
Any one can catch this idea at
once for lie would not invest a dollar
in it to-day quicker than 1 or
any other poor man. J guess we all
know his name, but wo do not know
his intention. lie is in favor of
something in the near future, and I
yet sav it is just as unjust for the
northern taxpayers to pay, or help
pay, as it is for only a few townships
to pay the It. It. tax. Such barkers
as J. M. O. is holpful to that to be
on us.
Mr. Editor, don't you suppose my
citizenship would come as near building
a courthouse as J. M. Oliver's.
