The sun will como out and givo plent,Y of time for gathering the crops and pre paring the lands for tho small grain cropm. The city of G reenvillo propo os to show the PCOI)le that she is alive to her opportunities. A "Irado )isplay" projeted on creditable proportions will be an attract ion in that business city this fttll. 00* If you havo a child that ought to be in school and is not there, think about th thdty you owo that child and make arrangements to givo it tho ad vantag.'s it ought to have.

No matter how often one has ii to i eircus th,eru is still a kind of longing tf go again and so-. the wondoriul things t l.ey do and ki4p to show. The childr.n enljuy theso things too, and to see them made happy is worth all it costs to take them there. Don't fail to prepare for a good wheat crop for 1903. This is about the least expansive crop made in this country, and comes to maturi ty at a time when help is most needed. It is also helpful to lands leaving them in botter condition for tcultivation and really more productivo. PAY UP. Now i; the time fo straighten up old debts. Don't defer this matter till all this crop's money is spent, but strive to meet every obligatioti as it falls due or at least before thc wherewithal to meet those debts ii spent and gone. Don't spend til 01(1 sCorCs are settled, and you wil feel mn better shape to ask for th credit you might need later ot The greatest obstacle in the wa; of most of our people is the rocli loss extravagancoe they indulgei seasons when money is not avai able-they buy On credit and n cossarily pay~ higher pricos than they had the cash, and not seein the money actually leave themn, e the time of buying, are not in pressed with the act of huyin and. forgetting the transactioni contentment of having the good at the present, never realize ti setting time how far they has gone. MORE ABOUT THE~ STRlRE Some exchange has roiarkel that, no matter how high coal goem people in this part of the countr will have "'wood to burn''. Bt the coal stirke affects us even i South Carolina. The groat bus ness problemn of transportation hampered and every business in terest suffers as a consequence and the popIle finally pay the the p)rice and icost of the foolis] braggadocio and reckless oxtremi ty of the heads of labor organiza tions. Organized labor is good who held withmn proper limits, but n organisation which yields to th selfihness of a few leaders has eve brought the full goo,l of which was capable. So long as the head of the striking, organized labor ca: induce their followers to resist th reasonable offers of capital the will thinkc themselves suooessfu -regardless of cost to the people a large, but the people will soon~ tir of this senseless business and pop tilar sympathy will be withdrawE from the sbpport of a labor wa that has its inspiration in the fool hardineWaof a few leader.

They are mien whose bluinie4. is insoparahly a linked With the business of the e buyer an1l whoso success depids upon the honest, manly dealings of those buyers and consumers. y It is the last they can expect that i their del)t,ors now como to their 1i ronee and help them to meet their I obhliga( ions with the manufacturors trom w'hom they bought goods andt(e sipplies for the country. Many of them doubtless used their credit in order to carry on their business, and should the poople who owe them fail to pay, their tm'thods of business must Cr a,e and the people will lose their friendly and timely assistance. And, att r all,, it is business to pay up and not to defer and cause annoyance, expenso and perhaps a straining of the confidence. Moot the issue squarely, do the best you can and the merchant will help you all he can. ** * PICKENS COUNTY PEOPLE IN GOOD SHAPE. The ease with which the 1902 crops have b,eu made ishould not make planters lose sight of the op portunities they now havo to lay the foundation for 1903. T'his has boon an oxceptionlIly favorable year. The seasons weore such that, f rom plan ting to ''la yin g-by," there was little time lost and the cropis wore worked in due season and no great loss foil to any man. If reasonably good weather prevails from this timo till the middle of 'November, the crops will be lhar. vested and the salable parts there of p)lace'd On the market. For many reasoins, our ple~l should be thankful. It any one0 thing has beenoz pre'ssed( oin the observor's at - ton tioni it is that the pe)ple in ev, ery business have gone about their affairs this year with one idea sal giont-to got thuough' this year, Sdoing good work, and doing it as econom ically as possible. Trhis e-helps uot only now when the ob Sligationsa incurred in making the crops are to be met but ini the way of ani example and a teaThing to tho effect that our people have 1 heen1 living too extravagantly and I, that they can live with as much y comfort and a great deal more t satisfaction through practicing the Li ways of economy than by giving -over to an abandoned eX travaganice a completely. -Jardshi ps somiethnous try people, ,but every hardship ha~s its wise lesson. T1ho good1 that has been 1 enivolveod from several years of - crop failures is apparent to-day, and thoughtful farmers are con.. eluding that a great deal of 1 the failures to grow good crops and therefore to meet e their debts contracted in the ma. r king, in the past, ls to be really t accunted for by the failure of the u farmers to use those business moth. 2 ode in their farming which govern ' in all the world of business. But we are cooming to realise the true I status of things, anid risinIg to the t exigencies of the case. Our people a In Piokens county are beginning to feel something of what they ame capable and quietly moving for the l' acoomplishment of the things poe. sible unto them. Let themi con tinue to econolnise and -to Work with the intelligduce they know they possess and their prosperity and happiness are assured.
