On last ftiauday in the City of Co- rr liunbia, a meeting of leading citizens g of the city was called for the purpose w mi organizing what is called a buy-a- 2' htale club. The idea seems to have or- d iginated in Atlanta, Ga., where some man started it, that each person in \ the community, who was willing to do so, in the aid of the farmers of the country, would buy at least one bale j, of cotton at the price of ten cents and hold it for the higher prices that are sure to come later At the Columbia meeting the citi- e, xens of Richland County and the trav- a ding men, were requested to be pres- e ent and state how many bales each n was willing to buy and hoid in the c cotton holding movement. In Atlan- ti ta and other towns of Georgia the f, movemnt has already spread consid- n rrably and it may render untold bene- c ifit to the farmers of the country h vjkm organized and carried out in ev- h isry State of the South. t The plan in brief consists of the e purchase by all who can of at least c one bale of cotton each at 10 cents o per pound, and the holding of this c hale until the price rises to an equit- * able figure. It is purposed to make c the movement widespread and to or- c ganize "Buy-One-Bale" clubs all over a the State. a It is argued by those who have advanced the idea that the purchase of t one bale of cotton will necessitate ^ only a small outlay upon the part of c - ? * - tne purcnaser, who can store the bale t in his back yard if no other place is c available; that by a large number of P people all over the State following v this plan, sufficient cotton can be held a oft the market easily, and without * .any appreciable inconvenience to r these taking part in the movement; I that the purchase* has a "no lose" rl pmpuaUiaw, t* that he invests only t a small amount, and having to hold * Illllllllliillllllllllllllllllllll I MR. sales this week since the ^ ers follow, don't be misled >n't let Tobacco drummers s ;o is all in, which will be ai Vve are headquarters for i I A I sopies m IIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII S< Just 1US, BIG CHIEF, of favorite scho rasers, Black Bo; Ou NOF 5 for Pure Drugsi a bale will obtain a good price for , at the same time not having to ly any insurance or any warehouse cpense for the holding. Much favorable interest was maniisjfeed in the project. The National Loan and Exchange ink of Columbia announced that ev y one of the 27 officers and employ} of the bank will buy a bale of cot>n from farmers. The 27 bales of >tton will be purchased between 10 id 11 o'clock Tuesday morning in ont of the National Loan and Exlange bank building. According to the announcement tade by the bank all the cotton must rade strict middling, and each bale eigh approximately 500 pounds. The 7 bales will be bought from as many ifferent farmers. r ,.441^0 MERfCAN WOMEN VITALLY CONCERNED. n The Establishment and Maintaining of Good Public Roads,?Women Called to Meet on Nov. It. ''Women are more vitally concerned' in the good'roads movement than re men," declared Mrs. Robert Bakr, Chairman of the Woman's Departlent of the American Highway Assoiation at Washington. "The isolalon and lonliness of farm life, cut off or months of each year from comrauication with the outside world, beause of impassable roads, falls most eavily upon the women of tho houseold. The young escape it *)y moving 0 the cities but the wives and mothrs must endure it. Schools find hurches can only develop their field 1 usefulness when they are made acessible to the contiguous population. >Iext to the home, the women should herish and upbuild, most of all the hurch and school, and as a means of iccomplishing this, good roads are ilmost paramount." A conference of women from all of he States has been called to meet in Atlanta, Ga., on November 10th to onsider ways and means of making he organized efforts of women most iffective for the betterment of the ublic roads. Many distinguished vomen will be present, among whom ire Miss Julia Lathrop, Chief of the Children's Bureau, Mrs. Daisy McLauin-Stevens, President of the United laughters of the Confederacy, Mrs. L'homaa M.

Lewis left Conway last Monday afternoon, after the legal sales, and remained away until Tuesday on business pertaining to his office. The sheriff is a very busy man these days. Those who saw the great number of wagons coming into Conway last Monday for the tobacco sales of that day, and those who have been keepkeeping up with the tobacco market lately, are prepared to say that last Monday broke the record. The streets were full of the loads of the bright leaf for some time, as those behind had to wait for those ahead to drive in and unload. The Conway tobacco market is a greater success than anybody ever dreamed about.

It is only a question of time ; when Horry will have to be divided into two couties and on account of conveniences to the masses Loris would be the county seat for the new county. We formerly heard remarks made Joy.citizens of other counties tha^ Horry was twenty years behind, even by some from our sister county, Marion, but we are proud to say that the tide has changed and that sort of "boosting" is got to be a thing of the past among all intelligent people. Quite a crowd of people from various sections of the county visited our town last Monday. It reminded the writer of how it used to be in Conway on regular salesdays. For the last few days we hear several of those who have visited our town on a shopping tour, making remarks about how cheap you can buy at "Everybody's Store." Mr. Louis Scherr and Mr. R. A.
