Hyman last Saturday night, and who appears to J be unknown in Conway. Russ spoke to the man behind the counter while this stranger stood in front and the stranger took exception to it when he stumbled back against Russ. In the battle of words which followed it is said that Russ came out the victor and he did not appear to be afraid of the big fellow although he had suffered a broken wrist some time ago while cranking a Ford. a FOR NOT DIPPING CATTLE On February 14th, 1923, in Magistrate W. H. Chestnut's court, in Con }\\%y, s. c;., JNoan &. narawicK was tried before a jury and found guilty for not dipping his cattle after being notified to do so by an authorized State livestock inspector. Tt is only through carelessness and indifference to the work of tick eradication in different parts of this county that farmers still have to dip and spray their cattle. If they will do the work thoroughly every two weeks for one season everywhere the ticks are, we will clean up the cattle tick and we will be with you until the last cattle tick has gone in this county.

BRYAN TAKEN ILL Clerk of the Court, W. L. Bryan, was taken sick while at his work in the office here last Monday. He was taken home by a friend who happened to be about the court house at the time and was reported as still sick yesterday. It was several yeaVs ago that MrBryan had a similar attack from which he recovered after spending: some time in a hospital in Columbia. His present lilness is thought to be similar to the illness that he suffered at that time. Many expressions of concern and sympathy were expressed for him.

He is one of the best court clerks in the State of South Carolina, having installed systems here that were far ahead of any used here before. SEND TRAMP" ON A HIKE J. A. Holt, of the night police force, caught a negro tramp on the streets at a late hour last Sunday night and made him leave. The negro was ragged and dirty, wearing an old rain coat that was full of holes, and shoes that were mere leather rags. The negro would not tell his name, but he said he had come from Myrtle Beach. He could not say where he was stopping or intended to stop for the night. He could not give any satisfactory account of himself. The policeman gave him five minutes to find a place to stay or get out of town. The negro began to take a side track for the corner at the Conway Trading Company. As he got further away from the policeman, he went faster and still faster, and when last seen was running full tilt over the Kingston Lake bridge. o Pay for the paper at the Rank of Aynor.
