Attention is directed to the caution that this action by the stuti crop best commission is not construed as in-eluding the pink bollworm regulations. Interstate shipments from the west are entirely under the control of the federal horticultural board, with the Pink bolhvorm headquarters at 702 Carter building, Houston, Texas. C. E.

OONWmclNGiL OFFERS IN BOOK The Mayor and Board of Alder men of the Town of Conway ar< ottering tor re-election tD then present offices. As a body thej feci that while no permanent im provements of a large nature hav< been made, yet they have accom S>lished what was their purpose ii the original, to recoup the financ es of the town. They have passe( through the strain of shortage o labor and high cost of materia and have held the expenditure! within the income so that the towi < is now free of debt, except tha 1 covered by bonds. This leaves th< income for the next year untouch ed and makes aval able funds whicl can be spent for larger improve meats.

Lately the talk about this has been more frequent than usual and the movement may be said now to be started. Last week it was stated that no survey had vet been made and no petitions circulated, but it was thought that petitions would be in circulation in a very short time. The Herald endeavored to find out who is at the head of the movement but did not succeed in learning any names. It is understood, of course, that business men at Loris and perhaps others in that of the County av/> inf /I A m;icom;u in mis movemeni. j HORRY WOMEN REGISTER TO VOTE An examination of the records of j the Registration office showed that a.proximately five hundred women have registered as voters in Horry County. The Supervisor of Registration will make up an accurate statement and furnish this for making report to headquarters in Columbia. The Clerk cf the Board of Registration stated that only two out of the approximate five hundred were colored women. The exact number registered will be pubished a little later. CHANGES HANDS.

FLEET TO CARRY OUT AGREEMENT Washington. -The United States navy is organizing a new fleet of nine war ships, which, it was officially stated, will be permanently based upon Panama canal for protection of Americn and -foreign interests in Central America. The fleet will include five cruisers, the Galveston, Des Moines, Cleveland, Taccma and Denver, and the gunboats Niagara, Sacramento, Asheville and Dolphin. Its function is to fulfill the obligation accepted by the United States under a secret agreement with Gi\at Britan and France by which this country was given a virtual mandate over Mexico arid Centra1 America. The treaty was exclusively described in a Washington dispatch to Universal Service. .Organization of the fleet is hast-1 ened by revolutions in Guatema'a, which threaten the peace of Mexi-1 on. nrwi in Hnnrlnrui: Under the private pact this government is responsible for foreign lives and property in these countries. Under the adminstration's agreement with ftngland and France an adequate military force will also bo maintained along the Mexican border.

The scries of Revival Meetings conducted by the churches of Con* way, started on Sunday September 19th, 1920, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon, and ended with the regular service conducted last Wednesday night. The meetings were held in the large brick warehouse of Planters Tobacco & Storage warehouse Company, now owned by Mr. W. A. Freeman. This warehouse I was large enough to hold Mie immense crowds that gathered at the sci vie s every day and nigh* while the meetings were in progress. These meetings were conducted under he auspices ol Conwav Moth n?li?* i.tw.:. .-1 ?- - " " ...... ?, v ? ii vii ^ UN Mil >)i CHCi churches, under the leadership of the Kev.

Bridgers did not tail to awaken an increasing interest. They covered many subjects and were laden with gospel tiutiis from beginning to end. Much good was accomplished by the meetings not on'y among those who attended the service but the inlluence for good exerted has been felt by the community in general. A spc-?ial feature of the meeting was the "Old Folks Servivce," held at a morning service on one of the days ol the meeting.

NO EXPRESS CAR" FOR BIG ORDER Lack of Equipment and Pep Costing Country Big Sums. The shortage of ra/lroad cars and lack of pep on the pari of* railroad men is -costing this country much money at this time. It effects Con way as well as other towns. Last week the Veneer Manufaoturing Company, of which Mr. W. A. Stilly is manager, ha<l an order from a customer, Messrs. Steiner i & Son, of Asbury Park, New Jerj .sey, for a whole carload < f boxes to be shippod to them by express. t\ rmi ivir. otiiicy endeavored to obtain a car from the Express Company and showed the Herald man a telegram addressed to Mr. J. M. McKeithan, the lo\il agent, stating that the car could not he furnished. This carload would have weighed 84,000 pounds and the express charges would have amounted to a gvcat clot.-! for the erpress company. At last accounts Mr. Stilley had wired the customer that he would make the shipment by freight if they coul.1 take it that way. o NOTICE OF ELECTION.
