There are better times in sight
for many people by reason of this
change in the price of cotton. It has
been brought about by the short crop

by causes not well understood.

Figures published last week show
mac mc quantity of tobacco sold on

more than one million pounds short

same, but it would not appear thar
there was this much difference in it.

The public should bear in mind,
that the special services begin at
the Methodist Church, Conway, next
Sunday. It should be the aim of all
to sustain the cause of Christianity
in every way possible. Much can be
done in that particular by attending
upon the services.

Some uncertainty has arisen as to
where the lower end of the national
Highway will be located, though it
is thought with much reason that
the authorities will follow the present
Conway and Georgetown road for
perhaps the greater pari of the distance
between this point and the
Pee Dec River. By some it is said
that the road ought to take a more
westwardly course than the old road
now runs, and others say that th*
new road ought to follow che old
f;n* as what is known as Halfway
Creek.

PHM IPPINE LEECHES
Scientist Describes His First Experience
With Them.
Tieecbes are a feature of the Phil ippine
forests not met with in lh"
American tropics. Writing from
M jinila to the Smithsonian Tnstitu i
tion. Dr. A. S. Hitchco^l describe*
his first experience with them, a^
encountered in a climb from the Agricultural
College at Los Banos
through the virgin forest to the top
of Mrtkiling, 3,300 feet high. The
leeches are slendei;, worm-like crea-1
tures ns much as two inches long.
They swarm in countless numbers on |
the trail, while many crawl on the
bushes, and they not enly take hold
whenever touched, but if a person
stands still they crawl toward him
from all directions. They attach
themselves to the skin, suck their fill
of blood then drop off. Tight wool i
puttees were worn to protect the
legs, but Dr. Hitchcock's shoes were
sewed up only about two-thirds of
the way to the top, and they gave
entrance below the puttess. 9 leech
was on one foot when the top of the
mountain was reached. Coming
down, as many as nine had worked
their way in, and they were crushed j
into a disgusting mixture of blood
md leeehes.

Some years ago a cotton man In- !

officer, "it falls due totnonow. and we
expect It will he paid." The cotton
man made no reply for a moment,
then asked abruptly, "What is your
business?" "Why, I am a banker."
was the surprised response. "Well,"
mused the cotton man. "tomorrow you
are going to be a cotton merchant."?

SPEED MANIAC S
ARE PUNISHED |
Citizen Holds up Recent Incident
on Ijighway as
an Example
What came near being: a fatal acci
dent to eight young men and women
on the highway between Conway and
Homewood last Saturday night, is
only another reminder of what is
liable to happen to any of us at any
time we venture for a ride on the
highway where speed maniacs are
allowed to have unrestrained privileges.
This particular accident resulted \^
the demolishing of a Buick loadstei
containing three voumr men point? to
Florence from Myrtle Beach; the
young man driving being crazy drunk
with whiskey. This car ran into
a Ford touring car containing several
young men and women coming
to Cm way. The Ford car was a's >
demolished, but fortuately no one was
hurt in either car, and it seems that
only by a mnacle all were not killed.
It is said that the Buick car was
making a speed of 50 miles per hour
when it struck the Ford car. Tlv4
highwav at thin point was good and
very wide.
The news of the accident soon
spread, and in a short while the
sheriff, rural policeman and the town
authoiities were en hand, and the
men wore arrested and we:e -urn
marily dealt with. They p"id for
the da nage done to the JYml ear an^
to the Buick car. and a fine was imposed
by the Town authorities fo?*
speeding through town. Tt i under
stood that (he county authorities impo
ed a heavy fine of $50' 0, but
which was afterwards thouirhi, to he
too much, and one-half of it re
turned to them t.ofroth< r w'th 'i
quantity of whiskey which was fornd
;n their possession and which the-were
transporting.
Surely, such awful, inhuman and
agmizing punishment, as was meted
oet to these yorng men of prominent
V'vinia families of high socia'
stand in.and wealth, will serve as a
warning lesson to others who may
aspire to venture into the role of
speed maniacs; and hereafter th?
public highway near Conway " ?" V?A
perfectly safe for even a child to
drive a car without the sigh test fear

TO CIVIC liEAnUE MEMBERS.
