An- i tomobiles passed through Conway on j their way to Myrtle Ueach, Murrei'sj j In'et, and a few en route to other j points of interest. There were picnics at several places in the county and it is said that all of these were well attended. Some of the people ' took in the excursion to Georgetown j land saw the seaplane which was advertised as an attraction at that place. Some of the tobacco growers who happened to have their barns full of tobacco in the process of curing, had to remain with that and of course could not observe the Fourth by taking the day oil". o There is a scarcity of fruit this year because the trees have not borne any. Huckleberries and blackberries are very scarce. The grape crop is the, only fruit crop that will amount to anything in Horry County this year.

Adams farm recently lodged in jail under a charge of assault brought by another negro. The weather continued to be cool most of last week, especially at night and in the mornings. This cool spell is thought to have been bad for the giowth of the cotton crops over the country; but other crops were thought to be doing just as well as if the r weather had been hot. i Repairs were recently made to the t railroad tracks loadnig through the i town, partly rotten cross ties being taken out and new ones inserted under the rails.
