at Yacht Club
The annual meeting* of the South
Carolina Press Association was held
at Mvrtle Reach last week from \Ved
nesday through Friday, and the members
were taken back to their trains
' at Marion on last Friday evening by
automobiles furnished by the Chamber
of Commerce.
It was one of the best meetings
ever hold. The members were pleased
at the cordial reception given them.
They all agreed that their stay at
Myrtle Beach was pleasant.
The trip of the members on their
way here for the meeting was made
from Marion to Conway in automobiles.
From Conway to 1 he beach the
party was divided, some taking the
yacht from Conway t;> Pcachlree
Ferry, tho others going on to the
beach in the automobiles.
On Wednesday evening just alter
the anival of the party at the Myrtle
Reach Hotel there \va> a heavy rain.
The rain continued until afte" dark.
On this account the cpening sessn n
was held in the lobby of the hotel.
The forty-sixth annual meeting
was called to order by President H.
(J. Osteen of the Sumter Daily Item.
Then the reports of the oflicers were
read. The feature of this opening
session was the address, delivered by
Col. W. W. Ball of the Columbia State.
His subject was entitled, "The Country
Weekly, Its Field, Past and Present,
and Its Future." He received
. the close attention of every member.
J Committees were appointed.
There were three sessions on Thursday.
At the morning session on that |
d:iv. in addition to the routine busi- j
ness coming before the body, tho
membors listened to highly instructive
talks by A. B. Jordan, of the Dillon
Herald, on "Business Organization
and Co-operation In the Printing
Trades;" (). K. Williams of the Record
Printing Company of Rock Hill
o?i "Production at a Profit and the
Means and'Methods to Attain that
end;" .1. P.. Derham of the Daggett
* Printing Company of Charleston on
"Cost Finding and Standard Price
Lists." At the two evening sessions
the subjects of press agent publicity
was taken up and thoroughly discussed
by C. O. Hearon of the Spartanburg
Herald, and a number of
<?t lior members. The matter of foreign
advertising" was taken up and
discussed. A resolution was carried
favoring the present system of advertising
agencies and paying them commissions
on the already established
basis. This subject brought out much
interesting information about matters
which are viewed differently by newspaper
men. The paper read by Dr.
\V.. W. Long of Clemson College on
the subject of the "State Press and
the Farm Fxtcnsion Service" was a
gem which seemed to interest the
members of the fourth estate even as
much if not more than other matters
close)' to theii profession.
After the opening session the meetings
were all hold in the pavilion, the
members using the comfortable rocking'
chairs fashioned and made in
Horry county.
On Thursday evening the association
was the guest of D. A. Spivev at
the new Myrtle Reach Yacht Club.
The members were also invited to the
ball given in their honor at the club
on Thursday night.
The official program was distributed
to the members sit the first meeting
on Wednesday evening. This propram
called for a session on Friday
morning". Owing to the absence of
onvftmi members who were to have
road papors at this meeting, the work
of the association was considerably
shortened so that all of the business
-was wound up at the session on Thursday
night and t he: association adjourned.
Friday morning was spent by the
members, part of the time in the surf,
which they all liked, and tin4 rest of
the time on the porches of the Myrtle
IJeach Hotel, ;md during all of this
time the members met and pot acquainted
with each other and they
talked "shop'' a great deal. Some of
the leading members sa\ that this informal
discussion among them at
these meeting:- doe.- nunc good in ;i
way than the more formal talks delivered
at the meetings.
IJeforc the adjournment the association
went on record as favorinu
the establishment of a branch banV

MEN AND WOMEN
MUST S!C.N ROLL
Necessary if They Would Vote
in The Coming Primary
Election
All Democrats, men and women
alike, must enroll now for the Democratic
primary this summer or they
will not bo allowed to vote.
It does not make any difference
how many times a man may have enrolled
in the past, ho must re-enroll
for this election. Clubs are organized
every two years.
County registration certificates have
nothing whatever to do with the .primary
election. The only way to qualify
for voting in the Democratic primary
is by entering one's name on
the club books. The rules of the
Democratic party prescribe that the
qualifications for membership in any
club of the party in South Carolina
and for voting at a primary shall
be as follows, namely: "The applicant
for membership, or voter, shall
be twenty-one years of age, or shall
become so before the succeeding general
election and be a w hite Democrat..
He shall be a citizen of the United
States and of this state. No person
shall belong to any club or vote in
ant primary unless he has resided in]
the state two years or in the county I
six months prior to the succeeding
general election, and in the club district
sixty days prior to the first primary
following his oiler to enroll;
Provided, that public school teachers
and ministeis of the Gospel in charge
of a regular organized church shall
be exempt from the provisions of this
section as to residence if otherwise
qualified."

Conway did not mince matters in
bringing in the members of the South
Carolina State Press Association last
week. It was the idea to meet .the
members in Marion, S. C., and bring
them overland to Conway, then take
them on to Myrtle Peach after entertaining
them at a pleasant dinner
here. It was a good plan for both
sides.
The Chamber of Commerce took
hold of the proposition back yonder
when the association decided to meet
here this year. The plans were laid
then to treat the editors in such hospitable
style that not one could all'ord
to iro away from this soclion oi nis
state without having a good impression
of tho country .and its people.
It is conceded that tho event was
a success. The different matters runnected

HAS HEARING
ON SCHOOLS
Causey and Spring Branch
Have Controversy Before
County Board
There was a hearing: set for last
Monday at 10 o'clock before the county
board of education concerning the
establishment of a school at Causey.
Causey is a mill village on the border
line between Horry county and
Marion county, also near the border
line of South Carolina and North Carolina.
Until some time ago Causey had its
own little school. The trustees finally
moved this away and consolidated
with the school at Spring Branch

to haul the children from Causey down
to Spring Branch.
The change was unsatisfactory.
Finally both sides in the controversy
employed lawyers to try to get relief
on the one side for this situation
and to try to prevent any change being
made on the other.
The whole thing was aired before
the board several times by the different
parties taking sides in the controversy.
Now it is up to the county
board to settle the thing and say
whether or not Causey is to have its
school back again or not. ?
The decision will not be made in
several days.

MAKES DUAL AT
WAVKRLY MILLS
Mr. J. W. Little, of the firm of J.
W. Littlo & Company, recently consummated
a deal whereby he became
the owner of the two sawmills and
large timber tract which were being
operated by Parker & Company, to
P. .R. Lachicotte & Sons, in Waccamaw
Neck. Mr. Little within a week
after the purchase, disposed of portions
of tho property, selling a part
of it to a company in which M. CI.
Andersen is interested, and other por
lions 10 omcr men anu omer chiucin>,
but ho still retains to he operated hy
his own company one of the sawmills
and l.oOO.OOO feet of pood timber. Up
to some months ago Mr. little operated
a sawmill near Klondyke. I'Yom
that place he moved to YVaccamaw
Neck, where he has been operating
sawmills ever since. Recently on account
of the location being more convenient
be moved with his family to
Pauley's Island and they are now living
at that place.

kill weevils
.1. W. Mamer, well-known farmer of
the Little Rock section of Dillon county,
is of the opinion that the recent
heavy rains destroyed many boll weevils.
"Before i he heavy rains 1 found
boll weevils in my cotton," said Mr.
Hairier, "but since Ihen 1 liave not
been able to find a single weevil. I
am not prepared to say the weevils
were washed oil' and drowned," continued
Mr. I lamer, "but 1 cannot account
for their disappearance. The
heavy rains of ;i few weeks ago mbrht
have done the work. The rain came
down in torrents .and every cotton row
was a gushing stream. If the weevil were
washed off Hie stalks and foil
into the streams between the rows
thoy had 1 o be f?retty expert swimmers
to keep from being drowned. Or
(he water might have carried then
into the swamps and they will come
hack again, bu4 one thing i> rfrtain
my cotton is clean of weevils and I
hope they will not take notion to
come back."
.Mr. Manner's theory is plausible. In
some sections the rainfall was so
heavy that cotton was beaten down to
tho ground and tobacco loaves were
hadlv damaired.

OLD SAWMILL
GOES IN COURT
'Arnold Bell Had Seized it Under
His Chattle
Mortgage
There is litigation started involving:
a sawmill which was, until recently,
located in Bayboro township.
J. H. Smith says that he bought
this mill from Hampton P/iue. He
paid a part of the purchase money
ciown and reserved the balance until
the mill could he tried out to see if it
would fulfill a guarantee on the part
of the seller that it would cut a certain
stated quantity of lumber per
day.
Smith claims that the mill did not
come up to the guarantee and then
Page agreed to furnish a new engine
if the old could he traded in as a part
of the purchase money on ?it. This
was done.
Some time ago Smith made a mortgage
to Arnold Bell at Bayboro covering
this mill and as he did not pay
the debt, the mill was seized by Boll
recently and .advertised for sale bv
Bell.
Before the day for the sa'e it bocame
known that Pi)go had seized a
part of the mill and moved it about
five miles away to another location in
the county across the swamp.
Some time ago parties took some
lumber awvty from this mill and Page
indicted the parties for taking the
lumber. The defendants were found
not guilty as there was a strong doubt
as to the ownership of the mil 1 where
the lumber was cut.
The first of last week, when it was
discovered that Pago had moved away
a portion of this mill. Smith and Bell
commenced a claim .and delivery action
in the court of common ideas of
Horry county to rccover tho possession
of tho plant, making' bond in tho
sum of SI,C>00 doublo tho value of tho
mill as stated in the complaint and
affidavit.
It was expected that these papers
would he served on Pace within the
last few days. It will then he up to J
Page to give the bond provided by
law in doublo the value of the prop-1
orty, or cl<o the mill will he delivered
to the plaintiffs in this action.
According to Mr. Smith he has paid
all that ho owed on the mill excepting
possibly a small amount. According
to Page he thinks he can hold
the mill for some unnaid balance of
the purchase money, but the amount
as claimed by him has not been stated.
FARMERSREGIN

Tobacco curing commences in this
coimtv this week. There may have
been a number of barns fi'led some
days before this issue of the Herald
comes out.
l ast week in sections of Florence
and nearby counties the tobacco farmers
were beginning to cut and cure
their 1^22 loaves between show'M's < f

they could, others seemed to bo inclinerl

WOULD ACQUIRE :
MORE OF HOUSES
Still Others Will be Leased at
Fair Rate for
Rentals ;
It appears that more than 72.000 ,
tobacco growers have signed the con- 1
tract for co-operative marketing. The
association, with headquarters at ,
Raleigh. N. C., claims that it is ready (
to nvirket all of the tobacco grow n
by these members.
Tb.e directors of (he association
have leased or purchased warehouses
in Virginia, North Carolina and South
Carolina; they have employed the
most skilled experts that could he
found to handle the crop this year;
they have the funds necessary for
making ad winces to the farmers when
the tobacco is delivered to the co-operative
warehouses.
Although much has been said and ,
much written about the co-operative
plan, yet there are many of the peo- '
pie who do not understand it. One '
tiling to remember is that by means
of the association the tobacco is placed
into what is known as a pool; and
this means nothing except that the
tobacco gaown by all of the members
of the association is put together in
one bit* lot, separated of course, by
the ditVcrent grades, and every man
irets the same price that the others
get. There will be no turning; of tags
on the warehouse floor, where the tobacco
is handled in the pool. There
will be no pin-hookers to buy the
crops, and speculate, either, on the
warehouse floors, or in the f,armors'
fields. The board of directors of the
association recently mailed to all
members a printed statement to the
effect that after investigation they
had determined to organize a subsidiary
organization in the district
which will comprise all tobacco-g'rowing;
counties in South Carolina. This
new corporation would try to acquire
warehouses in I lorry county as follows
:
Farmers & llugg'ins warehouse at
A ynor.
Farmers warehouse at Conway.
Brick warehouse and Farmers warehouse
at I.oris, and Planters ware-j
house at Nichols, S. C.
In addition to the above named
warehouses that would be purchased
if possible, the association, through
the subsidiary co? poratiou, would
lea.-'e other warehouses in Horry comity
as 'follows:
Brick warehouse at A ynor, S. C.
I lorry warehouse at Conway, S. C.
The houses last mentioned would be
leased on the basis of (> per cent net
for the rental of the property. The
management states that still other
warehouses and plants, I rom time to
time, will he purchased or creeled ;in<l
placed at tlie service of the association.
The association docs not mean
for any tolmceo grower to sniVcr from
want of facilities as soon as there has
been the necessary time for providing"
these facilities. They will study at
all times the matter of economy by
combining" plants, improving or extending
p ants ".ml by convertii r or
' selling plants which may become
ncce ;.>ary.
A general letter Ivts been mailed to
all the members reading as follows:
"Hear Fellow Member:
