PICK MENRjpf CURE CAREFULLY This seems to be good advice ti every tobacco planter in this county just at this tipie. What is the use in working hard all the spring, crop ping and taking to the burn, with hands all covered with the green tobacco juice, and still come out at the end of the season without ?nny profit for all this truble. Pick the leaves when ripe and just right, then cure it according to good judgment and handle carefully unlil it is on the warehouse floor for sal?. Don't go off and go to sleep and leave it to cure in the bain by itself. Stay with it. FISHING PARTY. There was a fishing party at Mvrtle Reach last week composed of S.' P. Hawos, H. G. Cushman, J.

He rry has a promising and growing summer resort. MONDAY OBSERVED AS LEGAL HOLIDAY Last Monday, July 5th, was oh j served here inst? a<l of the 4th, | which happened on Sunday this i year. By statute in South Carolina, j the 4th of July is a legal ho'iriay; | and by statute it is provided that i when a leg'.d holiday happens to fall 1 on Sunday, the following Mon ay 1; shall be a legal holiday. These pio: visions of the law were not well 'known to the people hcie, so that a i petition ?ivas circulatd and signed j by all of our merchants to the effect '< that, by agreement, ad of the places of business would remain closed ; o.i Monday n honor of American Ir.' dependence. The day was spent in various , ways. Tluio were a number of fishj jm- parties to the fresh winter rivers i and 1 aires. Hundreds of people went i to Myrtle Beach by automobile as well as by train to spend the thro. Some went to Murro'/s Inlet and i other places of interest.

TOWN HALL IMPROVEMENT The work of remodeling the second story of the Town Hall will begin to resume. Momhora of th*? Pimm ber of Commerce have contributed over $500 for that purpose and have appointed a committee to contract for whatever alterations are needed. The members of the committee are: D. A.

The other article which is of some length describes the sites which are offered free of cost and it tells the many advantages that Conway has to offer an institution of the kind; hut tf-e other article fails to mention the subscriptions in money,, which we mention here. Subscrilit?ons hnw? , - ? -W crvvn IVUU ^vt by the people of Conway amounting in all to the niee sum of $1 ">,000.00; so that in addition to the free site, which the Academy may select from the number that is offered, and in addition to free service from the telephone company and the reduction upon cost of other service an 1 lumber and 1 rick, the Hnptist college will 'nave the sum of $15,000 00 in cash to add to the fun Is they already have in the erection of this school, if they decided to bring; it hero. Other towns have made attractive, offers no doubt but we can hardly sr how one could l>o better than the offer that has been made by Conway. *n addition to the $15,000.00 it is fully expected that there will he other donations to the school if it is located here. ^ . FINE COTTON AT JOSBAHVILLE The Herald roceiv< d from Jos. W. Johnson of -To> dnnvill:* fnn Infrw t 4 ho published in last week's paper, an open cotton blossom that was picked from his crop on June 29th. He did not find it until t1 at day but as it was already red it must have been open before that time. This crop of cotton was planted about April 12th but was backward at first on account of the cool spring1 weather. It is now looking fine and bids fair to produce a good ciop of the staple.
