Highest Time Ever.
Til'1 Ml r> nrn" t ?
that the people of Conway are making
groat preparations for tlie entertainment
of the South Carolina
Press association on the occasion of
its annual meeting at Myrtle Beach,
June 21, 22 and 23, according to a
letter received by Harold C. Booker,
secretary of the association, from
Marion A. Wright, secretary of the
Conway chamber of commerce. This
is the first time that the association
has ever met in Horry county and
the people of that county plan to
make it a meeting long to be remembered.
Mr. Wright said that the Conway
peeople we it? anxious to have the
members of the association come to
Marion on the morning* train of
June 21. They will be met at Marion
by the people of Conway, who will
t'ike them to Conway in automobiles.
They will be given n brief but
spirited automobile tour of Conway

board the yacht Jeanette and
carried down the Waccamaw river to
Peachtree fei*ry, a distance of some
20 miles. Automobiles will be waitin,e:
at Peachtree ferrv when the
boat arrives and the delegation will
be taken to Myrtle Reach, a distance
of some six or seven miles.
Pinner will be served either at Con\vav
or on board the boat.
This program will give the delepates
a short glimpse of Conway, a
prolonged view of the Waccamaw
river?which the Conway people say
is the most beautiful stream in
Pouth Carolina, a dinner, and will
deliver them to Myrtle Beach about
3:30 o'clock in the afternoon.
The details of the entertainment,
program are being* worked out by a
committee of the Conwav chamber of
commerce, of which Col. D. A. Spivey
is chairman.
Hubert G. Osteen of Sumter, president
of the association, is arranging
the business program for the meeting
and it is panned bv Mr. Osteen
to make this a real business meeting.
There will, of course, be p'enty of
time for pleasure and recreation but
it is the idea of Mr. Osteen to have
the association transact, real business
when it is in session and to put the
asociation on a business like basis.
An effort will be made to make
this the most largely attended meetincr
of the association ever held and
officers of the organization said that
judging- from the interest already heino
displayed in it. the effort will
probably be successful.
BAPTISTS GIVE
A FISH DINNER

MEETING HORRY COUNTY
MEDICAL SOCIETY
The Horry County Medical Society
held a very interesting meeting in
Conway on Wednesday, May 3, with
Drs. Dusenbury, Stalvey, Scarborough,
Norton and Rogers present. Two interesting
papers were read and discussed,
"The Interdependence of Medical
Professionalism and Commercialism,"
by Dr. Norton, and "An Inquiry
Into the Present State of the
Practice of Medicine in Horry county,"
by Dr. Rogers.
Under the discussion of plans for
the betterment of the society, two
subjects were presented; first, "Service
to the Poor." One physician contended
that the county had no real
pauper class, even in the present contingency,
but after discussion it was
decided that the question of the poverty
of a person shouldn't be left to the
decision of an individual nhvsician.
but should bo loft to the county board,
and that when they decidcd that the
person was a pauper, that the society
would expect the nearest physician
to attend such a person freely and
fully, to the best professional ability,
provided that free medicines were furnished
such cases by the druggists,
free rations by the grocers, etc. Of
course, emergency cases were to be
re>j)onde<l to at once without question,
The second subject discussed was ;i
health survey of the county. It w/i*
thought best to make this :i clinical
feature of each future meeting ol
the society, calling upon the physician
or physicians of each community
to make a survey of his community
regarding conditions causing disc:is<
therein, with suggestions for the relief
of such conditions, making a ful
%irin H /k Vk 4 l?w% - - ..-I-* - I
i m; 11 i c|i<>i t iw nir >?nii,L y( WMICI
will fully discuss such report, aw
make recommendations for actions I'oi
said community.
The county health officer, who wa?
not present at this meeting, has al
ready made surveys of the public
schools in every section of the count>
and i fully cognizant of community
health conditions, and it is hoped tc
have him tuke an active part in this
worthy work of the society.

HORRY SCHOOL
ENDS SESSION
Last Commencement Un?ler the Administration
of Rev. S. C.
Morris.
Aynor?The present session of the
Horry Industrial school will come to
a close with the gradu*.\ting exercises
to be held next Monday evening, when
eight girls and four hoys of the
11th grade are scheduled to receive
diplomas. The a<ldress to the graduates
will be delivered by A. H. Gasquo

The first number on the commencement
program was the music recital
given some days ago by Misses Gladys
Kirton, Maude Dawsey and Thelma
Page and Isaac Shelley, pupils of
Mrs J. H. McCutcheon, music teacher
of the school.
The next of the commencement
events will be "A pageant of History,"
to be. presented on Friday
evening of thi> week by a cast composed
of students from the Horry
Industrial school and the local public
school.
Thp Row C\ K. Dnwsev. a native
of this locality, but for several years
a missionary to Brazil, will preach
the commencement sermon next Sunday
morning.
This will be the last commencement
under the administration of the
Rev. S. C. Morris, for several yearshead
of the school, who will not be
connected with the institution next
year, the trustees having- recentlv
accepted his resignation to take effect
at the close of the p'^sent session.
Just who his successor will bo
is not known, but it is understood
that the trustees have several men in
mind for the place, and that a splendid
school executive will be secured.
The trustees are to meet next Monday
for the purpose of electing a
president of the school, and much
interest awaits the announcement of
their selection.

It is easier to raise one fifty

the benefit of everybody who wishes
to read the paper and feels like they

of the opportunity which is
given to get one ?of the best county

GETTING MANY MEMBERS
Enough Warehouses to Take Care of
.Majority of Year's Crop are
Already Secured.
The list of all warehouses secured j
to date by the Tobacco Grower's
Co-operative Association in South
Carolina was gven out this week by
jT. C. Watkins, Jr., Director of W>arej
houses for the Association.
Mr. Watkins has been in confex,
ence at Raleigh during the past week
with the warehousemen of North
Carolina who have tendered their
properties to the Association. True
to their wo/i the officials of the Association
have taken over both warehouses
and warehousemen wherever
possible and according to Mr. Wat
1 il 4 _ i! _ _11 A.
Kins tne Association is in excellent
position to care for its tobacco growing'
members throughout the Carolinas
and Virginia.
The strength of the Coopeifcitive
Association with over 40 warehouses
evenly distributed throughout South
Carolina is revealed by today's announcement.
The refusal of a few warehousemen
to discuss terms with the Association
hitherto, has given its officials
no anxiety according to Director
Watkins, who let it be known
that sufficient warehouses to take
care of a majority of this year's crop
have been secured. Negotiations
with still other warehouses may bo
closed in a few days, according to
Mr. Watkins.
Over 70 warehouses in North Carolina
and 42 warehouses in Virginia
have signed up with the Cooperative
Marketng Associaton.

latest reports from Raleigh headquarters
where- more than a thousand
contracts have been received during
the past two weeks. A new factor
of strength in the campaign of tho
growers is the leadership of experienced
warehousemen in gaininjr
signers to the contract.
With the signing up of one thousand
acres of tobacco in a single day
in Person County, North Carolina
last week and the recent successful
meetings in three States there is every
indication that the organized
growers will attain a seventy-five
per cent sign-up before the mp-rkefs
open according to M. O. Wilson.
Secretary of the Association.

DIXON BRINGS
LATE PUMPKINS
George Dixon brought to Conway
last Monday two pumpkins, a part
of his last year's crop. They had*
been kept through the Winter an J
were a-s fresh looking as the day
they were gathered from the field.
They were left at the store of the
A. M. McNeill Grocery Company.
There is on exhibit at the McNeill
store a watermelon from the 1921
crop. It was purchasced from tho
farmer who grew it last year and
laid on the counter where it has remained
ever since and yet shows no
sign of decay except a slight discoloration
from the original green to
a slight brown. It. has the imprint
of thousands of finger nails which*
have been stuck part way into the
surface to see whether it is really a
watermelon and not a citron.
o
APPRECIATE TRAINING.

the State of South Cai'oina shows

Training Camp held at Camp JackCnil

Defense Act in providing military
training: for young1 men of suitable

success.

WINSTEAD SAFE,
LEWIS IS ALSO
Elsewhere in this issue appears a
news itefh concerning: an automobile
accident th.tt happened to Dan. H.
Winstead, furniture dealer at Winstead's,
and Tolar B. Lewis, the attorney
of the Conway bar.
. The item tells of the anxiety caused
by telegrams, giving news of the accident
and the fact that Mr| Winstead
had to be taken to a hospital.
The whole was cleared up by the arrival
of the two back at home a day
or two a?ro.
The accident could have had serious
consequences, but luck had it
otherwise and neither of the parties
were seriously hurt, but got a good
shaking up.
The car skidded on one of North
Carolina's good roads and took up
against a ledge, where if it had gone
over, the occupants would have fallen
down 100 feet.
Mr. Lewis was thrown from the
car, but was not hurt beyond the
shock of the performance.

TEARING UP STILLS
The destruction of a whiskey still
without catching the Operator of it
is making arrangements for the location
of another still that will have
to be found, if ever, by hard work
and watching. The better way to '
do would appear to be to watch any
still that is found until the operator
is caught in running it.
