A HOME COMING
For the Benefit of South Caroliniant
Who Are Living Abroad,
A Proclamation is Publisiiee
Hereunder by Hon, H. P, Lit
tle, Mayor \)F Conway, the
Holding of a Great National
Agricultural Exposition, and it
is Proposed to Make a Great
Home-Coming Occasion, for our
People Living in Other States:
Proclamation.
Whereas there is to be he'd !n
Columbia, the capital of South Carolina,
from January 27th to February
8th, 1913, a great National
Agricultural b.xposition, under the
auspices or tne National uom Association,
and whereas at that time
there will be visitors to South Carolina
from all sections of the country,
men and women who are concerned
as to the adoption of advanced
methods in agriculture and as to the
general development of the country
along all lines, and
Whereas, it is the general desire
of the people of South Carolina that
those of our kindred and friends
who have left this State to make
their homos in other portions of the
country should be invited and urged
to return for a visit on the occasion
of this great National Agricultural
Exposition.
Therefore do I, Mayor of the city
of Conway hereby call upon all our
people to write their relatives and
friends of South Carolina birth and
parentage, now residing in other
States, and direct their attention to
this home coming event, and further
do I by this proclamation request
that those of our people having relatives
and friends of South Carolina
birth and pareutage living in other
States do send the names and addresses
of these relatives and
friends to the National Corn Association,
Columbia, S C., in order
that they may be kept duly inform_

Proposed Juvenile Brase Band.
Some of the juveniles of Burroughs
Graded School a**e enthused
over the proposition which tbey
have been discussing among them selves
to organize a brass band and
which bas apparently just come to
a head. Prom what we can gather
from a conversation accidently over
heard between two youugsters it
appears that there are two considerations
in the way of these embryo
musicians which stand as stumbling
blocks in the way of putting their
idea into effect. The first of these
is the want of an efficient loader
with enough pluck and push to carry
the project to a successful end,
and the second is the necessary permit
of Prof Hunter, the Superintendent,
for them to organize. They
have the talent, but where are the
instruments?
Seme of the fair school rparms
and male teochers attended the
State Teacher's Association, which
met in Charleston last week. They
were affectionately chaparoned by S
H Brown County Superintendent of
Education. They returned to their
various schools through the county
feeling that they are better prepared
to teach "Young America
how to shoot" by reasons of having
attended the assoeiation, and all
express themselves as being highly
delighted with the hospitality of
the grand old "City by the Sea."
Escapes An Awful Fate.
A thousand tongues could not
express the gratitude of Mrs. J. E.
Cox, of Joliet. Ill , for her wonderful
deliverance from an awful fate.
"Typhoid pueumouia had left mo
with a dreadful cough, she writes.
"Sometimes I had such awful coughing
spells I thought I would die. I
could get no help from doctor's
creatment or other medicines till I
used Dr. King's New Discovery.
But I owe mv life to this wonderful
remedy for I scarcely cough at all
now." Quick and safe, its the most
reliable of all throat and lung medicines.

Let Every Son of Horry
Rally to Her Aid

After All the Hard Work Which Has
Been Done to Secure the Industrial
School It appears That Defeat Will
be Written Upon the Banners of
Horry. But This Need' Not Necessarily.
be the Case, if the People Will
Only Go Down a Little Deeper in
Their Pockets. County Pride Demands
This Much.
The Herald is informed that in
the face of all the hard work that the
Industrial school committee has
done in its repeated elTorts to raise
in this county the amount of money
necessary to secure the school in
Horry, their work is likely to come
fcojnaughb. The sum of $10,000 00
in cash was needed, and the com
mittee at first met with a promp1
response. We understand tha
Tuesday was the limit of tim
given for raising this amount, auu
the close of that day found them
short to the amount of $2200 00
There will, be another meeting of
the leaders in the matter on May
6oh, and that will be the last chance
Horry will Lave, so far as we are informed,
to secure the location of
this Industrial school. After such
hard wcrk as has been done by those
who took the task of asking for subscriptions
to the stock, it seems a
shamo that the comparatively small
balance of a little over two thousand
dollars, cannot be raised and the
location of the school secured.
Those who have contributed as a
general rule, contributed liberally,
and it will therefore be from new
subscribers that thocommittee musi
look for raising the balance that u
now required, and which it appear.has
been so hard to get. CJnles.
something is done to gttlhe balance
of this needed money Horry will bi
out of the running as we are in
formed.
Good Oat-Look for Tobacco.
Reports are to the effect that to
bacco plants generally through thi
county are small, but large enougn
| to plant: that raauy of the farmers
have already planted the weed, and
many others are now engaged in
that work, The plants that have
been set out appear to have a good
start, very likely induced by the
light showers of rain which so far
have characterized the weather
While plants have been scarce in
some sections of the county, farmers
will manage to get plenty for their
I needs, from the best we can learn,
and the oufc-look for a good crop
should be good. Those who seem
to be in position to know say that
the prices this year are likely to be
good. So far as Conway is concerned
as a mirket, she will bo "strictly
in it," this year, to use a slang expression,
for she will have three
warenouses in operation, and bettor
prepared than ever to handle the
weed that comes this way.
The first meeting of the creditor
of New York Racket Store Company
took Dlace at Conway yesterday,
before A F Woods*, Esqr , the rof
eree appointed in the case. Many
claims were filed, and still there are
others, as the concern was consider
ably indebted when it failed last
year by reason of suits and judgments
taken against the concern.
