The , only change that has taken place in conditions is the lifting of the Federal quarantine whereby cattle could 1 not be shipped from Horry County, a tick infected territory, into other states. Recently several counties, in- j , eluding Horry, were freed from the 1 federal provision so that cattle may ( now be shipped out of the State with out any trouble. But the cattle dipping regulations jf tt r* ' i or norry county nave not yet been changed; and the dipping must go on next year as before. The quarantine in our State has not yet been lifted. ] Next year, however, will wind up ^ the cattle dipping business in Horry County, it is believed on good au- J thority; and after next year Horry j may be entirely free from the cattle r tick. li / P?

I Regarding a Mix-up of Big Bills When Change Was Being Made. Magistrate G. A. Rabon at Cool Springs hold a preliminary investigation recently in a peculiar case where the Warrant taken out by J. S. Winbourne charges larceny of money against E. .J. Tyler. The facts in brief are that the prosecutor, having purchased some articles at the store, tendered two or three bills of money which it is claimed were folded un together and contained larger denominations than was thought. The prosecutor claims that there were two $20.00 bills in the roll and that Vrn onli got one back. While the defendant claims ami says that he can prove that there were three of the bills in all, one being a $20.00 bill which he returned ami took his change out of the remaining two bills one of which was a $2.00 bill and the other a $1.00 bill. The defendant was not allowed to present any witnesses at the prelimnary and as usual the Magistrate deemed it his duty to send the case *o 1 ln> liiirlifii- I 'nui'i " ""4' I > v V, cum mir> Ui^fJUMllOU >vas made of the ease. o Ml SSI Mi IN ACTION.

MAYOR'S PROCLAMATION Greetings: ^ . To the Citizens of Conway: America's greatest task will not he finished until the nations at the jh ace conference have decided on f rms of peace thai will insure justicc and establish a durable, lasting peace. Until these terms have been ratified and put into effect a consid< rable portion of our armed forces must remain overseas to occupy s trategic points and to help police Europe. Many of our gallant tmops, who have nobly borne their share, will be returned home speed ny, Dut many months must elapse before all can be returned. To maintain the necessary aimed forces and to continue the necessary war activities will require large expenditures, the funds for which the government expects to raise by taxation and by loans; and a large portion of the money to be loaned is expected through the medium of War Savings Stamps. In the War savings campaign last June many of our citizens pledged th< mselves to purchase War Savings Stamps. Not all of these subscribers have redeemed their pledges to date, although these pledges are regarded as moral and patriotic obligations to the Treasury Department which no loyal American will purposely neglect. There are also in our town, many persons who have not purchas ed any War Savings Stamps, and this fact, along with the failure of many persons to redeem their pledges, has caused our communis to fall short of its War Savings quota, which does not reflect the patriotism that animates our citizens. THKRKFORE, now. 1. J. A. McDermott, Mayor of Conway, do her* by call on the patriotic men, women, and children of our town to make good their War Savings pledges; and upon all to buy as many War Rtnni nc /?<>n on I ~ ' I C" t thus rally to the support of our nation, so that America's great task can be finished. ?J.
