Mr. Rutherford phoned for the police department and the call was answered by Chief Busbee, of Aiken, who found that the girl w.as either drugged or drunk.

A mistaken notion has long existed In the minds of many people (and does still in some) to the effect that the merchant who advertises must charge .more for his goods or sell an inferior quality. It is claimed that he must flet a larger profit in order to pay for his advertising. Contrary to this false belief, the advertiser is able to sell cheaper than the man who does not advertise. And tho ronctin fnr fhot Tn/^f Jo miltA ultnuln ? vuuvii ? \'t (UUl 1 uvi to III tu OIIU|riCf Tike advertiser sells many more times the amount of goods that the other sells. That is an undeniable fact. Accordingly he gets back his invested Money so much sooner and is enabled to reinvest it again and again, while the ottoer turns his mon?y.over only once or,twice in the same ^u?e. Thus the advertiser can afford to do business on a smaller margin of profit and make more than his nouadvertising competitor.

It is pointed out that members of the association who sell their old cotton on tho open market are selling it in competition to the association. I hp officials of the association are delighted with the delivery record to date, but naturally are anxious to get every b.nle sold through the association that can possibly be obtained,; the more cotton sold through the association the better the record which it will make. Members of the association are expressing great delight wi*Ti the manner in which the association is functioning and express the belief that in 1923 the bulk cf the cotton in this state will be sold through it. o PEOPLE OF OUR TOWN 3885 I Every town has a Good Ole Scout who takes a Healthy Interest in Everything that's going on.
