?ll JU' THE BUSINESS SECTION OF CONWAY WILL BE AMPLY PRO- , VIDEO FOR ] MAIN STREET LIKE I I Now Being Provided for to Extend < Al*ng Main Street From the Norton Drug Company, Thence Through Alleyway and Through i the Back Lots of Owners to Kingston Hotel Building. The town council recently provided | for an extension of the sewerage so ] as to accomodate the business buildings on the western side of Main ( Street. The work has begun on a i line of sewer extending from the man ] hole at the corner near the town hall ; along Main Street to the alleyway at j Norton Drug Co., and thence through < this alleyway to the back end or mid- < die of the block, then across the back ] end of the business lots to and across j the Kingston Hotel property. This ] will make it easy for the owners of ; lots along the western side of Main i Street to join the sewer line and put 1 in closets and lavatories. 1 It is stated that the line will be laid < from the town hall to the corner of 1 the lot of Norton Drug Co., at the ex- 1 pense of the town, but that the re- 1 mainder of this extension will be put in at the expense of the property ] owners along Main Street. ( After this work on the sewer line I has been completed there will be noth < ing in the way of paving Main Street t through its main business block. The ( property owners have been talking a good deal about this recently, and i it is believed that an arrangement 1 will be made whereby it can be done i at the joint expense of the town and I owners of property on both sides of c Main Street. - t COLLINS?REGISTER , i M iss Naomi Collins Becomes the ! 1 Bride of Mr. J.

During last week while the interior work on the 1 building was being completed, the handsome fixtures for this new store kept arriving and were being placed in position. The fixtures are as handsome as will be seen any where in this section of the State. They are finished in mahogony and are comIplete from the numerous show cases to the cases and drawers thai are to hold the different articles in the I store. The soda fountain which is modern in pattern and large as well as handsomely finished had not arriv- j ed in time to allow the store to be opened this week. The fixtures and equipment will be in keeping with : the building itself, which is the handsomest in Conway. The floor has already been mentioned. The steel ceiling is attractive and the finish generally on the inside is cool and inviting. Connected with this new enterprise are Marsden C. Anderson, D. T. Riley of Florence, S. C., and E. P. Walsh of Conway. They have all had a long experience in the drug business. ? The Bargain House is selling Hall Mark $1.00 shirts for 75c, but that is their business.

We are printing this special notice to each and every subscriber to prepare them beforehand for what will not be a surprise, at least ought not to be under the circumstances of the case, everything being considered. Sometimes it is a surprise when unexpectedly a bill or statement of account is received by a man through his regular mail. As the many readers of this paper already know we have recently been making improvements in the equipment and plant of the paper, and have spent thousands of dollars to that end, all in order that we might be able to give our readers a paper much better printed and containing more state and local news than any ather local paper in this entire section of the State. The readers of a paper can hardly realize the time and attention, the trouble and the worry, and the actual expense in dollars and cents, that it always takes to make even a small change in the printing plant of a paper. Chief among the improvements wo have added to the plant is the new intertype machine, i picture of which has been published in the paper several times. But there are many other new things now oeing put in, all of which costs large sums of money, and which costs a whole lot in time and money to get them in and properly installed. Now we aiv getting up to our point. These circumstances make it imperatively necessary that we call on ?ach and every subscriber to do his full part and each one can do it to our ;ntire satisfaction by paying up their lues that are behind, and paying )ver as mush as possible in advance. We are therefore making up statements to send out by mail to those who are owing us, provided they will lot send the money in without it, and thus save us the expense of the two ;ent stamp that each letter will take. While it takes some time to make ip the statements, the work is not so >ad where we do not have to spend money in mailing them out. Upon ending this notice, please look up lie label on your paper, and mail us your check, money order or currency for one, two, three, or four years, and jpon receipt of the money we will send a proper receipt. We hope that ;he response to this notice will be iboral. LOCAL AND PERSONAL. W. H. King was in Conway on busi ness last week. Several families will soon move to their cottages at Myrtle Beach. E. K.
