Mr. A. E. Mull is the new man ager of the store at Equinox and is putting in his stock of goods as rapidly as possible Mr. Will Blakely has moved to tlie village and lives on Church street. Mrs. Guy Beard, of Gluck, spent Sunday with her mother, Mrs. Hall, on Church street. After grading and hauling dirl several weeks Highland avenue, the new street in the pillage, has been turned into one of the pret tiest streets in the whole village. The ground is very level on the front and the back and by the grading that was done gives ev erybody a chance to have a good garden spot. Omar Dickason and family are also among the newcomers. Mr. S. T. Massey, who has been instating, moving and over hauling r/achinery in the mill, states tha' he has finished his work- and that it will only be a short while until all the machinery will be runnine. Everybody is busy at Equinox, some are moving tn and getting ready to go to work as the work starts up, others are cleaning up and beautifying their premises and planting fall vegetables. Watch the people make a new place out of Equinox 1 MOVING PICTURES.

ANDERSON MILL NEWS. Mr. L O. Gosnell and family visited relatives in Spartanburg and Greenville counties during the time the mill was shut down'.

Mr. Frank White had a new coat of paint put on his house while the mill was stopped. SIGN YOUR NAME. "You just sign it for me, I'm powerful nervous" or "I doh'I write much" are expressions that are frequently heard around a mill when a man is asked to sign his name.' it's a pitiable sight to see a man grown who can't even sign his name and would not know it if he were to see it in writing. This man, however, will not see this article, but we are wrlti ingall, for those who will see.il! You may have an opportunity t? help in.some way by a word of en couragement some/hoy or girl to get the rudiments of an education that'Will be of inestimable value to them in after life. There is positively no excuse for any person at any of bur mills not being able to read and write. If the opportunity is lacking, we will see to it ?hat the opportunity is supplied-if you can't read and write, don't be too bashful to let some uno help you. The above article "Sign Your Name" was written by L. P. Hol lis, who is editojr of the Pacomico, the paper published for the oper atives of the Parker Cotton Mills' Company. Mr. Hollis had in mind .he people who worked in those articular mills when he pointed .ut the advantages offered to. the people to obtain an education. Wight here in Anderson, at Gluck, itt Crr, at Brogon, at Equinox, at l iveiside-Toxaway, and at the Anderson Cotton Mills the people w'll have as good opportunity this coming fall and winter to obtam cxp< ri . instruction as can be ha.' under similar conditions any where. We were proud of our Night School last year and expect h make it bigger and better than ever this time. . BROGON ITEMS.

Several families are spending their vaca tion in the country, while others are in the mountains and other places of interest.
