Some men thing so much of a se
cret that they cannot keep it.
* * *
If you want a thing done quickly
carry the job to the busy man.
* * * *
If you have a secret you wish to
keep tell it to the first woman you
meet.
* * * *
Some men are never satisfied unless
engaged in giving somebody else
trouble.
* * * *
In every large family you will find
some members good and some members
bad.
* * * *
Politics reached one extreme in this
State. They will naturally go to the
other before long.
* * * *
Some people are fine in calm weather
but entirely worthless, not worth
one cent in a storm.
* * *
The man who is in mortal dread all
the time that he will oifend somebody
is not apt to do much.
* * * *
Are you pulling down or building
up as a member of your community?
It is time for you to find out.
* * *
If you desire to feel right about it
hereafter, go on and vote for the best
men for the public offices.
* * * *
The streets of Conway arc pleasant
places. Just after a rain. If the rain
is not too heavy.
* ? * *
Many are like the tramp. They are
not afraid of work and therefore lie
down by it and go to sleep.
* * * *
Among the candidates for governor
there are several who will do credit
to that high oftiee.
* * * *
Keep up the work and the daily
struggle for the goal lies still just
over yonder. It will never come to
meet you.
* * * *
Some men have arrived at the place
where they regret that it is their duty
to vote. They hate the very idea
of politics.
* * * +
It is amazing to see how much a
man will act from prejudice rather
than as a result of calm thought and
the exercise of judgment.

anyway ?

If there is any force for good within
your being try to put i1 to the f
front and keep the forces for evil '
in the background.

The prices charged by the traveling t

Knowledge gained about one thing
will help about the accomplishment
of an entirely different thing. Many
men have been wise enough to find
this out.
* ? m *
The world has advanced to that
stage where each nation needs the
other even in times of peace. When
some of them go to war, all of the
others must suffer more or less.
* * *
While a part of humanity is laboring
to keep cool at the mountains and
seaside resorts, the rest of mankind
are just as busy as ever performing
the necessary work of the world, re

? * *
When was there ever a time when
the people took so little interest in
politics? The interest they are feeling
is shown by the small number of
voters attending the meeting all over
the State.
* * * *
It is he who sits down with his
hands folded on the stool of "do nothing"
who gets the least said about
him. The rule in this world is to find
fault with the man who has tried to
do something.
* * *
Success demands that a man should
keep several things nearby in his
recesses of his mind at the same time
so that each may be brought forward
at a moments notice. Training will
enable almost any ordinary mind to
do this.
* * * +
Count up the men and women in
Conway today and you will find that
the majority came from the country.
riM r *
inereiore never discount the country
boys and girls. They are certain- |
I
ly entitled to a place on the roll of 1
honor.
* * * *
No city of its size in this section of
the country is coining to the front
more rapidly than Conway. Consid- .
ering everything each man and wo- :
man should feel proud of the town
and proud that they live in it. And
in addition to this each man and woman
ought to do something, be it ever
so little, in trying to boost the town
further onward in the march of progress
and prosperity.
* * *
In politics, just as in everything
else, there are many there who fail to
give any deep study to the problems
confronting the people today. You
may look for the shallow man in politics
as you may expect him in every
other walk of life. But it is not best
for the people he is to serve that he
should remain there. Try to get men
in public olliee who will give their
might, power and soul to the working
out of the problems facing the State
today, men who will have the interests
of the people at heart instead of
their own selfish ends.
* * * *
When the news first reached this
country about the war in which all of
the great powers of Europe have be
conic involved, there were many people
who never thought of the evil effects
that would follow such a war,
even to the people of the Northern
States; and little did they suspect
that the farmers in the South would
be put to inconvenience and perhaps
sulfer financial loss by reason of this
war on the other side of the Atlantic
Ocean. Hut by the middle of last
week it was apparent to even the
farmers in the rural districts that
this section of the country would have I
to bear its proportion of the burden. ;
The buyers of tobacco on all the markets,
in so far as the export trade was
concerned, were ordered off the floors.
Later the buyers 011 all other grades
of the leaf were stopped. Word reached
hero that the tobacco men at Mullins
were holding a meeting the latter
part of last week to consider the
best means of handling the serious
situation. There is only one tobacco
crop and the manufacturers must
have it in order to keep their business
going. This the warehousemen knew,
uud they also knew that some plan
would be formulated lor handling and
storing the crop that later would be
jo much needed. Just as it is about
.obaceo, so it will be about cotton.
>ut when it comes to cotton,-the naure
of the product is such that it "can
e stored and kept without danger o\ ,
%
detrioration. While there may be delay
in selling- cotton at what it really
ought to be worth, still it is hoped
that these bloody wars in the Old
World will come to an end before any
serious consequences follow to the cot
ton farmers of the South.
* ? *
It is set forth in Holy Writ that
blessed shall be the peace makers,
for theirs shall be the Kingdom of
God. Many people have studied this
holy saying and pondered just what
the exact meaning and effect should
be. The divines of the present and
of the past differ somewhat as to the
exact construction to be placed on
the words. Our construction of it is
that the language in plain English
means just what it savs. And this
meaning attaches to it in a general
way as well as in a special way. It
applies to it when considering the
world as a whole just the same as it
applies when considering the individual
man or woman. The man in a
community who makes it his business
to keep peace among his neighbors
and succeeds has accomplished one of
the greatest works that a man could
do. Of course such a course on his
part will bless him as long as he lives
bringing him in rich returns when he
least expects to receive them. Just
so it applies to the members of any so
ciety formed for the common advancement
and mutual benefit of a community
or entire people of the State.
Just so it applies to the man who
steps in between his two brothers who
are at war with each other and trying
to injure each other in various ways.
Just so it applies to the nation or
State who comes in as mediator between
two other warring nations or
states and causes the dark clouds of
bloody war to roll away from the horizon.
There is not a single word i 11
the bible that is not true. Those who
want to know the meaning of any
sentence it contains may find it by
studying it out in the right spirit. It
will naturally come to them if they
want it.

STORE YOUR COTTON,
HOLD FROM MARKET,
IS THE ADVICE OF AGRICULTURAL
DEPARTMENT, AS TO
COTTON*,
THE CONGRESSIONAL ADVICE,
The Farmers of the South Will Do
Well to Heed And it is Believed
They Will,?Cotton Will be Bound
to Bring Good Prices Later.
"Keep calm; use the nation's great
credit and business staunchness to the
fullest extent; withhold cotton from
the market and give careful attention
to warehouse facilities for grain."
That was the advice of the Department
of Agriculture last week to farm
ing interests as a means of relieving
* ~?i A
viircai.c;iivu i;ruy cungesuon on account
>f the European war.
The committee of Congress appoint
ed to look into the situation sums up
its advice as following:
"It is our mature judgment that the
least possible amount of cotton should
be put upon the market during the
next 60 days for it is our belief that
the combined strength of the Federal
government and State and local agencies,
coupled with the inherent courage
of the Southern people, will make
it possible for the cotton crop to be
marketed without sacrifice."
The farmers of Horry county will
do well to heed this advice. It is the
best we can give them. The cotton
crop is necessary to the pleasure and
comfort of the world, and while the
prices might be low now on account
of the difficulties of commerce, if the
farmers will store it and hold it, they
will be bound to get a good price for
it a little later.
MRS. C. E. GAUSE.
On July 28, 1914 the death angel
visited the home of Mr. J. F. Gause
and took from him his loving companion,
Mrs. C. E. Gause. She was sick
nine weeks and all that husband, children,
brothers, sisters and friends
; could do. Our blessed Lord saw lit
to take the good wife and mother to
j sleep in the arms of Jesus to await
; the resurrection day. She leaves
| a husband, seven children and three
1 l i I /? i i 1 r
oromers, nvc sisters aim a nost 01
relatives and friends to mourn her
loss, but we hope our loss is her eternal
gain.
She joined the Missionary llaptist
Church in her early days and lived a
Christian life for her children and to
the world until her death. She was
born January 20lh, 18(17 and died
July 28th, 1914. Her funeral was
preached the following day by Rev.
P. B. Coats. Afetr the funeral services
she was laid to rest in the cemetery
at home, near Daisy, S. C.

OBITUARY. C<
After about six months of intense ^
physical suffering, Mrs. Maggie Bell
passed from her earthly to her Heavenly
home.. She leaves four little
children, a husband and three brothers
and a host of friends to mourn her ^
loss. We believe our loss is her gain.
She joined the M. E. Church at an
early age, then on till her death she lK
was faithful and demonstrated the m
i depth of her Christian Faith, by lead- c s
ing a noble life. m
When one so devoted , so faithful,
so pure, is taken the church and com- (f
no
munity sustains a great loss, and the
world is sadly bereft. Now that she 1
has gone from them, may they still
be drawn thitherward. They indeed .
have a treasure in heaven, where in
moth nor rust doth not corrupt, and
where thieves db not break through 1
nor steal. K*
Why should we linger to weep
Around the tomb
Sorrow shall vex her no more
Never a shadow of trouble, or
gloom,
There with the Glorified Spirit to w
reign. uj
To live with loved ones, gone be- T
fore aI
Free from pain resting in the Heav- ly
enly land. ai

Tuesday,?Quiet Meeting. I
The candidates for congress from
e 6th District, J. E. Ellerbe, J. W. I

I the people at Loris last Tuesday. I
le crowd was estimated at about 300 fl
jople. J. E. Ellerbe spoke first, I
aking substantially the same chJfiSf- I
against J. W. Ragsdalc that he has
ade at other places. Mr. Ragsdale H
>oke next and made about the same I
ifense to the charges. A. L. Hamer B
ime last and addressed the voters in fl
s usual quiet and orderly manner. 9
Mr. Ragsdale put some questions-^ S
r. Ellerbe while the latter was mak- H
g his speech. B
At the beginning of the meeting B
icre was confusion about who should B
>eak first, and this was settled byt Jjj
ie chairman allowing each candidatei
speak as long as he wanted to or
ords to that effect. B
N. F. Nixon of Wampee was in Con fl
ay last week in relation to gettt^ B
p a petition for roads in Little River SI
ownship. The petition was signed fl
: first by white men freeholders on- B
as we understand it. Although B
any of the white freeholders would fl
gn for the election, it was found fl
pon investigation that colored fl
s would have to be obtained in or- B
:>r to make up the limit of one-third fl
f the free holders required by the H
atute to sign the petition before the H
ection can be ordered. Messrs. fl
ixon and others were determined fl
owever to see the matter through in H
le interest of better roads in i.irrfe
iver Township and there is no doubt fl
at what the movement will succeed. H
