Fodder pulling is the order of the c

Miss Leila Oliver of Green field was
here this week.
Miss May Dusenbury visited her
friends, Misses K |>st v Anderson and

A gentlemen living near heie who
has been a constant patron of the
dispensary told your scribe that lie
went to Wilmington on the excur
sion and bought one (piart of whiskey
for fifty cents which was better
whiskey than ho could buy in the
dispensary for one dollar per quart.
Two gentlemen who were enjoying
the effects of "first X had a listientV
near the dispensary Saturday.
They soon drew knives and wore iin
mediately seperuted by outsiders.
The combatants were seemingly
very friendly before the difficulty
occurred.
The farmers who have been sell
i 11g tobacco at Conway seem to be
much pleased with the prices which
they have received. We are also
glad to learn that the warehouse at

should stick to Horry county
A small boy supposed to be seven
or eight years old was found by the
roadside drunk Saturday evening.

whiskey, he answered .limmic Jones;
Jimmie protested his innocence, but
the little fellow's grand mother
would r.ot believe Jimmie.
The lute imnrovenmnt of the
aid is the talk of tin* town. Many
people around here will not even
renal anything hut "the Herald."
Now go to work and try to improve
Conway. You must have a number
>f manufacturing enterprises to
keep the town booming.
Has the, town council done anything
toward building the town
hall?
Wake up boys Col. Spivey
may withdraw his proposition, for
no business man is going to leave
an olter open of this kind for an in[lelinite
period.
Well the dispensary is certainly
in a mess. The Spartanburg rove
lation are enough, it seems to me, to
lisgusl even Hub Evans. Turn on
the light and we suppose that the
investigating committee will tind
mough rottenness and corruption
to make our hair rise before half is
told. Forecast.
Reply to Mr. Roberts.
Editor Herald: ?Wo notice an
irtiele in last issue signed by L. P.
Roberts in vvhi -h he savs "wn m?n
lot going to tackle the dispensary
juestion because it is none of our
msincss." lie seems to (convey the
dea that the Willow Springs comnunity
will play shut mouth on this
great evil, but I would like to say
diat there is but one or two men in
die community but who will light it
,o the last.
We arc very much surprised at a
hurch member talking as he does.
[Io seems to think that we should
lave nothing to do with the /great
>vi 1 which is leading so many of our
people down to destruction. Wo
jelieve that when God saves a man
He saves him for service and that
He wants us to go out and work for
die salvation of others Christ left
lis home in glory and came to earth
lot for himself but for others. We
ire commanded to arm ourselves
with the mind of Christ.
Again he says as my father has
sent me even so I send you, in other
words my father sent me to work for
ithers, and so I send you to work
'or others. When we think of these
diings how can we say it is none of
ini' business how other people act?
May God help us all to soe our
luty in this matter and help us to
itand for the right.

ICditor Heruld:?I notice in hist
week's paper that the dispensarytes
are'beeommingsomewhat interested.
One has it iu a nutshell, another
says "we are not going to bother
with the dispensary, it is none of
our business."
I do not know who he means "we"
to refer to, hut if he means to refer
to his community as a whole he will
tind a lot of "bucking ' against him
on the day of election We hear
a lot of talk about increasing crime
by shutting up dispensaries, sounds
like nonsence to me when every
body knows how crime has increased
since its establishment.
I guess they mean to say the
whiskey pots are going to keep
running, and if you don't let it be
sold in the dispensary bottles, under
cover of the dispensary, it will tie
sold any wav. Blind timers they
say,'' yes but we are going to light
the present evil the tiger with eyes,
and then the blind ones will not
have such good hiding places and we
will catch them if theV are not sharp.
1171
yv nan our ooys coin0 from their pots
with their pockets full as they do
now from the dispensaries we will
hunt them up end take them pot
and all. The same law will exist
against blind timers then that does
now.
Our friend that has it in a "nutshell"
yives us the law eovernine
it' How foolish to open its doors
and then refuse to sell to the classes
who are its best customers, just as
well shut it up, and that is what we
propose to do so far as this section
of the moral vineyard is concerned.
