What has become of the Friedman
Cure?
? *
Some men carry their honesty on
their faces only.
* * *
For the want of a market the cotton
crop was lost.
* * *
No community will ever be without
V its gossip and mischief makers.
* * * *
The trouble with some men is not
lack of brains but lack of sense.
* * * *
t , Too much prosperity is bad for a
nation as well as for some individuals
* ? ? ?
In the making of great results,
nothing counts like steady and persistent
efforts.
* * * *
Some men cart-y a lot of brain
above a very foolish looking face. It
is well to remember this.
* * * *
Wisdom is 'a great thing and we
are commanded to get it. But the
way to get it is not made very plain.
* * * *
The early bird will get the worm
provided the bird himself is not gobbled
up by the industrious huntsman.
* *
You can stall many a graduate
with a nordinary problem in arithmetic.
* *
Some men grumble at everything.
Others grumble at nothing. Which is
, the worst?
* * * *
\
Some men are highly educated although
they cannot read a word of
Latin or Greek.
?
While all Europe is flying at each
other's throats is the time for this
covriry to go* ih;? i.
* * *
More hog and hominy seems to be
the best thing for the farmers next
year.
* ? *
To do all you can for your neighbor
only to find out that he does not
appreciate it is like eating food without
salt.
* * * *
We believe that the United States
has not yet reached the zenith of her
glory as the greatest nation on the
face of the earth.
* *
There are plenty of men,, and women
too for that matter, who have
V
perfect stacks of brains, and yet have
no atom of common sense.
* * * *
The man who first tried to make
the world believe that he could navigate
the air was marked down as a
crazy fool.
*
The greatest men the world ever
saw were willing to crucify thcmscl'
ves on the cross of wholehearted service
to others.
Don't get discouraged and down in]
the mouth because your place in the;
world is lowly. Fill your own little
niche with all of the honor you can.
* ? ?
Be careful what you say, for others
will udd words that never left your
lips and give you a meaning entirely
different from the way you intended.
* * * *
Money docs not grow on trees in
this part of the world, especially
while the European war is in progress.
* ? * *
Among all the pages and pages of
war news with the horrors of war detailed
in every line, how refreshing
to turn to a page and find some of the
antics of Mutt and Jeff.
* * *
Would you believe it? From appearances
there arc many who would
give a dollar for a drink of soda water
if it could not be obtained in any
other way.
* * * *
One of the problems of fashions for
women has been how to make walking
easy and at the same time hobble the
skirt a little more. The slit skirt was
one solution. What next?
* * # ?
The great wars in Europe are the
bloodiest in history. Thinking of
them brings horror. Still there is a
purpose behind them which in some
way will finally work out for good.
* * * *
The wars under which the Old
World now labors only proves the
fact that nations ever since the world
began have risen and flourished, only
to fall into decay in one way or anoth
* * * *
When you arc inclined to think of
the success of the county fair, and of
the pleasure that ycu derived from it,
give some thought to the patient and
untiring efforts of the men and women
who made it what it was.
* * *
This is not only an age of great
progress in science and the higher
arts. It is also marked by a great
increase in fakes, all the way from
Pellagra cures and hog cholera serums,
to new forms of breakfast food.
? * * *
Some of the most successful men
this country or any other ever saw
were men who had very little training
in school, yet they managed to
educate themselves in some way. At
least they got there just the same.
* * * *
The physical culture fad is one
thing that has been overdone in some
instances. No athlete ever lives to
be very old. It proves that the best
way to do is to cultivate and exercise
those faculties and muscles that you
intend to use. Let the others rest.
? *
The danger of eliminating the cotton
crop in this country next year has
been voiced by more than one writer.
It may encourage the growing of cotton
in places where it was never before
grown and when this country
plants the cotton fields again, she
may find a competitor she never had
before.
* * *
The man who has taken down a dozen
college diplomas need not feel
proud over this unless he has the
ability to put his knowledge into service
for mankind. He should remember
that he is likely to be outstripped
by a man who cannot even spell and
write his own name.
* * *
Often you hear a man say that
thus and thus is too small a thing to
deserve attention. It may be about
money or it may be about something
else. He is hardly ever correct in
tliic liontnion 4Virn its nr? lorrrn fViinor in
VI?*W| lL/V/Vl*MilVy V A U I? V V4,,,lb * I
the world that is not composed of'
small atoms too small to sec with the
naked eye.
* # *
The creation of great corporations
with almost boundless capital and
endless resources, and even the existence
of men with more millions
than they can possibly spend, have
their part to play in the history of
this world and are as much a part of
the great purpose and plans which
founded the universe, as the smallest
and humblest man that now walks
the earth. They why curse them and
say that they are out of place, and
that they are a result of fraud and
corruption. It is just as mean to take
a cent from another as it is for a
great corporation to rob another great
company or some rich man of a mil-,
lion dollars. Some people in this j
world can manage to see the big i
things that come within the range of
their vision. But they always forget
the atoms of which every thing in this
world is made up.

CURIOUS COTTON BOLL.
Brought to Conway From the Farm
of Mr. T. S. Lee of This County.
Last week Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Lee
of the Adrian section were in Conway
anil brought with them to this office
a curiosity in the shape of a cotton
boll from the farm of Mr. Lee. And
it was not exhibited at the Fair, either.
This boll was of peculiar formation,
having spaces for fourteen complete
locks of cotton. The fourteen
locks had been picked out but the
spaces where they stoop in the pod
were plain enough.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee also raised this
year a variety of peanuts which would
be hard to beat in this country or
in circumference, but are very long
in the pods, and the beauty of it is
that each and every guber exhibited
by Mr. Lee had four kernels inside,
fully and completely developed.
Methodist Workers' Council.
The officers and teachers of the Con
way Methodist Sunday School have
been formed into a Workers' Council
to meet every third Sunday afternoon
in each month. Superintendent A. E.
Goldfinch presides. Sixteen were
present last Sunday afternoon, and
great interest was manifested. The
purpose of this monthly meeting is
to talk over the problems of Sunday
School work and to plan together the
work of the Sunday School. Several
important steps were determined on
at this last meeting. Mr. W. C. Pitts
was elected secretary and Mr. W. B.
King treasurer of the Sunday School.
Mrs. J. P. Johnson and Mrs . S. O.
Green were chosen assistants in the
Home Department. It is the purpose
of the Methodists to make theirs the
most rfttrirmt SimHnu nrtociKU
w v fs/Msixav* j K/VKWVI
The organization is being steadily
perfected.
One of the most interesting exhibits
at the county fair was that of the
Conway Light & Power Co. It consisted
mainly of a washing machine
run by electric motor, two electric
cookers or toasters and a pumping
outfit.
NO GREAT CHANGE
IN WESTERN WAR
SO SAID AN OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
ISSUED FROM GERMAN
HEADQUARTERS
OCTOBER 17.
An official announcement issued
from the German headquarters Oct.
17th, says that in the French theatre
of war there have been no important
events, according to a Berlin dispatch
to the Reuters Telegram company received
by way of Amsterdam.
"In the province of Suwidki," the
statement adds, "the Russians yesterday
were inactive. A number of prisoners
were captured near Schirwindt
tvuvi oume guns were laivcn. liic l>attles
near and south of Warsaw continue."
To the Methodists of Horry
Dear Brethren:?
Next Sunday, October 25th, has
been set apart by the Laymen's Missionary
Movement in our Conference
for the Annual Missionary Rally Day.
The purpose of this occasion is first
of all to raise in full the amount cx
pectcd from each of our churches for
the cruse of' missions this year. Where
the apportionment has already been
raised in full an effort should bo made
to raise a surplus. Be sure to come
prepared to make a special contribution
to this great cause on that day.
If next Sunday is not the preaching*
day at your church, then let the next
Sunday be duly observed.
The temporary financial distress
that we are now passing through is
sure to seriously hurt the general
work of our Church and our missionary
interests especially. We must not
fail to carry the Gospel of our Lord
to all the world. So let every one do
his best. Fraternally yours,
R. Herbert Jones,
Presiding Elder.
OBITUARY.
Died, near Adrian, S. C., on Sept.
28th, 1914, Major Loyd Little, son of
S. D. and Jessie Anderson, aged two
years and 28 days. Short was his
stay on earth, but a sweeter flower
never bloomed. He has filled his mission
on earth and is gone safe from a
mother's arms to the arms of Jesus,
and we all feel that it was better that
he lived, for we have a sweet hand
drawing us on to heaven. Every thing
possible was done by loving hands to
stay the monster, but God knew best,
who makes no mistakes, and we bow
in humble submission to His will.
And may God who tempers the wind
to the shorn lamb remember in mercy
the bereft father and mother and all
that loved him so dearly. He was laid
to rest in the Poplar cemetery, Dr. E.
O. Watson conducting the funeral services.
Grandpa A.
WOULD SOW WHEAT.
In View of the Uncertain Duration of
thn l<!urnn<>nii Sfrinrorlo
Editor Herald:?
I would like to reach the school
teachers and preachers in the county
in an effort to induce the people to
sow wheat.
What may be the outcome of the
struggle now on in Europe and its
duration, embracing about GO per
cent of the world's population, and effecting
the entire world, we cannot
foresee.
One thing is in evidence, the crisis
is upon us and something must be
done.
That the staple money crops, cotton
and tobacco, must be eliminated , in
part at least, there can be no question.
That the growing of bread stuff will
be our chief dependance no one will
deny.
That there can be successfully
grown on well drained land in this
county wheat crops, has long since
been proven. That the time is ripe
?necessity is upon us?for a movement
toward wheat growing is in ev
idence.
That to have enough planted to induce
some public spirited citizen to
erect a flour mill, it will be necessary
to have a considerable area sown.
The farmers in the county could easily
plant from one to ten thousand acres
and get good results, even if more
were grown than necessary for individual
use.
Will not the school teachers and the
preachers in the county endeavor to
reach the whole people in the effort
to get an estimate upon, an report the
same to Mr. W. M. Wall, Farm Domonstator.
Conway, S. C.
Located as he is, no one is better
situated to make a record of our findings,
nor any more willing to assist.

JURY IN FLORENCE
HAS GLFAREO BURGH
CHARGED WITH THE MTRDER
OF SAM COOK, AN HORRYITE
LAST YEAR.
According to the Florence Times
the jury trying S. T. Burch for the
killing of Sam Cook, in that city, last
year, rendered a verdict of not guilty
in the court there last Friday,
The Times says:
The jury in the Burch case which
went into their room yesterday afternoon
about 5:30 o'clock, returned
1 ! i i 1 1 * ' ~
a venuct inree nours inter 01 not
guilty on the charge of murder, but
guilty on the charge of carrying con- .
cealcd weapons for which he was sentenced
to imprisonment in the* county
jail for one month or the payment of
a, fine of twenty dollars.
The trial of this case elicited more
interest than any other heard in this
county in recent years, particularly
on account of the prominence of the
of the accused.
SOCASTEE NEWS.
Interesting Items Gathered by The
Herald's Correspondent.
