We must make decisions if we would advance. o Time, the most precious of things, is thrown away. o The wisest men will make mistakes and are not ashamed tc correct them. o It is better to pin faith to an honest poor man than to a dishonest rich one. o * < , We will make every failure an additional urge to final and complete success. o ^ Horry tobacco growers will cio well this year if they will only stick to the job close enough. o Too much time must not be spent on things that should be settled and dismissed in a moment. o Nothing exceeds the hardness of the problem of enforcing .moral conduct. Efforts in that direction always bring difficulties. J o > One bad feature of bad debts in any community is the fact that they havie to be paid by honest men who may find it hare to attend to their own obligations. o When men can be brought to see light from within themselves Dieir conduct 'will be different. Light from without seems t< if it mm tne inner consciousness in some cases. o 1 < 4* We want to awaken in the iaimers of Horry County an intense desire to produce better crops, live more at home in consequence of this, read and study more and thus be able to accom plish more. r o * Co-operation in the tobacco industry commences in the community where the tobacco is raised and harvested for the curing barn and now that idea of co-operation attends the producl through the process of selling to the manufacturer. o The undertaking may succeed where there is faith in the for lunate outcome and self reliance in the man who is trying to pul it over. Where there is a loss of faith in the project and a lac!of confidence inside the man who is behind it, there is nothing but failure in store. o An enthusiast becomes a bore of the worst sort where he loses his tongue on the subject and tries to interest others Where he has sense enough to keep his thoughts to himsell and concentrates his efforts on performing his work, he is t force that the world will see and recognize. _/ >.. V There are many good things going on that it is impossible foi all of us to take in, but who should worry about that. The mar who is busy in attending to his own affairs can rest content ii the feeling that he is carrying out his part of the big game ir the work of the world and in the service of his fellows. o $ SAVING AND NOT MAKING j It has been said, with a great deal of truth, that it is wha a man saves, and not what he makes, that leads to riches. This brings to mind the case of the man who started in th< United States army, while in his youth, at the lowest wage ever paid at that time for any kind of service, working as j private, but attending to his duties as a good soldier shoul< until in the course of time he was promoted, and stil] again wa nrnmAto/l n l i ' ? ^V...vv^v? uiim in late years ne nad been honorably discharges under a pension provided by the laws of his country. This mai never drew very high wages during any period of his almos life-long service for Uncle Sam, though of course his wages in creased from time to time but only after long periods of work ing up to his time; but he never spent a cent of his money fo anything that he did not need and he got, very early in his lif< the habit of saving. i The money that he saved was invested by him in teal estat in his home city, just as fast as he could save up a sufficien amount to make a payment on another lot or tract. Later 01 .he erected homes and apartment houses on this land that h had acquired from time to time and the value of his holding greatly increased. Long before he was retired from the arm; lie was a very wealthy man; and for many years there wer \ THE HORHT HERALD, CONWAY, S. 0, FEB. 8th, 1923 several men working for him in the land and tenant business while he was still serving out his enlistments with the army. He is now one of the wealthiest men in that State, and the incident is mentioned here to drive home what we started out > to say, and which is, that it takes saving habits to lead to thrift in this world and not alone the making of high wages or big : profits. . The man who save# cannot spend unwisely. His desire to acr cumulate a fortune and use it for the benefit and growth of his community, must be strong enough to cause him to deny him: self. The man who wants ease and pleasure more than he wants to acquire solid substance, will use all that he makes, as he * makes it, and he will never have anything ahead. > This rule applies in all of the trades and professions, in the * stores, and on the farms. The habit of saving has made very wealthy men out of a number of farmers who can be picked out . in Horry County today, while other farmers who started out . with a chance which appeared much more to advantage spent all that they had in riotous living and are marked down as com: plete filures today. In the case of merchants the same story is about true. There are merchants who are rich men today and never owned more than a small shop over which they took the , pain to preside every day in the week and render service whicli 1 j ll PI )' llllf rnn cj u niii'nni ?i f r>rl <??->/-! J? 1 i jjitvivnu (vnu lucii Miuui piuLiiis were savea ? and reinvested. On the other hand there are merchants who once owned immense stocks as compared to those of the others. On the other hand he can spend what he makes before he has clothes and costly automobiles. They got all these and much besides but their pleasures were only transitory and they are ( today members of the band of failures. The man who works for wages can save more or less of what he makes and in time reach out for something bigger and better. They sought .pleasure. Their wives and children wanted fine made it. o SCORES SHIP SUBSIDY *, =% Irving T. Bush, of New York, who promoted the Bush Terminal in that city, is a personal friend and political supporter of President Harding, but he pronounces a very severe judgment on the ship bonus bill which Mr. Harding is trying to push , through Congress as his "pet project." ; "I admire Mr. Harding greatly; I voted for him and hope to do so again, but I cannot bring myself to believe that a merp chant marine can be maintained only by a subsidy?by paying . out the taxpayer's money to some one to run it?is worth maintaining," says Mr. Bush in an article in Collier's Magazine. It is difficult to sell the people's fleet at fair values now and ; hard to find any one to operate them while business is bad. Mr. i Bush says, and then he continues: "A subsidy will not correct either of these difficulties, but time will. If there is no freight to carry, a bonus will not create i it, and experienced operators of ships can come only as men ) acquire experience. In the end the ships would be sold, for the Government is not a success in business." Mr. Bush is president of the New York Chamber of Com - merce and is an authority on ocean transportation. POLITICAL HUMOR Th' Democrats are lookin' fer a leader for 1924, an' th' R'pub' licans are lookin' fer one t' begin right away.?Abe Martin. You know there is going to be an awful scandal over this last : election. The Republicans claim the Democrats didn't notify them they were having one. One Republican in New York City found it out and voted for Miller. And now the Democrats are * trying to find out how he knew it. It seems there was a leak t somewhere.?Will Rogers. c o r ... CLOTHING STILL HIGHER Men's woolen suits and overcoats will have to be increased in J price in order to include the duty which the Fordney-McCumber profiteers' tariff act been fixed on raw wool and wool ^ fabrics, according to Charles F. Manning, Newark, N. J., presi1 dent of the International Association of Clothing Designers. Mr. Manning made the announcement in the course of an address to the convention of his organization at Cincinati. !* JIT I .... - wooien clothing for men, Mr. Manning said, could not be sold 1 by dealers at the prices that have prevailed thus far and leave a 1 profit for the dealers. The tariff would have to be added to ex1 isting prices, he said. He did not indicate what the increase in the price of an average suit of clothes would be. s s WAS SOUND POLICY ?, Washington.?Time and events are clearly demonstrating i that the fundamentals of the foreign policies of the late Democratic administration were sound. President Wilson propheticalb ly foresaw the evil consequences of a failure of a just and prompt s determination of German reparations, and in his first communla cation to Senator Lodge, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relai tions Committee, on July 18, 1919, solicited the approval of a s provisional representative of the United States on - the Repararl finri PAtYimitioiAw 'TVi/v 1 - a vavil WlllllllOOlVllt i lie ICtlCI' XUIiUWS i n "My dear Senator: There are some things in connection t with the execution of the treaty of peace which can hardly await i- the action of the several governments which must act with regard to the ratification of the treaty, and chief of these is the r functioning of the Reparation Commission.

The number of home water systems installed with the help of the county agents was 62. Especially worthy of notice as showing the tendency to more attractive and more satisfactory country life is the fact that 716 home grounds were improved and farm and home sanitary conditions improved to the number of 542. j In the way of building up the soil for more nrofitable uroduction... it in interesting to note that drainage systems numbering 103, involving a total acreage of 8,578 acres, were planned and adopted; 619 farmers were induced to terrace lands totaling 24,156 acres; and 3,803 farmers were furnished plans and induced to adopt systematic crop rotations, while 10,559 farmers were influenced to plant o Hall's Catarrh Medicine Those who are In a "run down" condition will notice that Catarrh bothers them much more than when they are in good health.
