I am a cotton farmer. A man
offered me a fine, 8-cylinder automo
bile last week for only $988.99 laid
down. Looks ike I ought to buy it—
as it will require only 224,000 pounds
of cotton seed to pay for it. I felt
complimented but we ain’t traded
yet, as I grew only 60,000 pounds of
cotton-seed last year.

similar festival last'year and as far
as I could see, all of the ladie s had

LITTLE FOLKS ENJOY
BIRTHDAY PARTY.
Mrs. J. E.. Mahaffey entertained
very delightfully Saturday morning
in celebration of the birthdays of her
two little daughters, Millie and Rose,
when about 35 littl e girls and boys
gathered at her home on upper Main
Street. After several contests and
games, the hostess served refresh
ments, consisting of Sno-Jo’s and
sweet crackers. These popular little
girls weie the recipients of numerous
gifts.
HOSTESS TO METHODIST
YOUNG PEOPLE.
M rs. William E. Mc'Nab was hostess
•n last Friday evening to the young
people of the local Methodi‘1 Church.
About twenty-five of the younger set
were present and a delightful evening
I think it’s a fine spirit our
folks are showing in respect to wear
ing and using cotton. My wife is
darning all my 1927 socks with cottort
thread, a nd patching the britches of
the entire family with cotton patches,
that.is, where th e patches won’t show
except at night.
I wish there was some quick way
to get rid of about 24,000,000 bales of
cotton. Giving it to the poor won’t
help—as the p:cr are making another
big crop this year (themselve-) and
will soon have plenty of it again. Our
government ought to use mor e of it
in manufacturing its red tape.
Cotton is more useful than lots
cf folk s think it is. It is fine for
paying the salaries of . our office
holders thru the tax medium. It re
quires only 68 two-horse tenant
farmers to produce enough cotton in
12 months to pay a senator for 6
months. And some cf these tenant
was spent. Several unique contests farmers wculd mak e just as good
were entered into and prizes won by
M iss Margaret Free, Mrs. Robert
Conner, respectively.
The hostess served fruit punch end
Crosland, Bates Hagooi and Newman
sandwiches.

they have to farm, don’t-cher know?

Friday afternoon from 4 to 6 with a
party in honcr of the fourth birthday

Lanca ter, who is spending a while
with her. Various game s were play
ed, and many lovely gifts were re

ments of cand, ice cream and nut
cookies were served. Mrs. Eargle
was assisted in serving by Mrs.

MRS. HOLLAND ENTERTAINS
D. A. R. CHAPTER.
• j
Friday afternoon Mrs. T. A. Hol
land entertained very charmingly the
Barnwell Chapter, Daughters of the
American Revolution. Mr?. L. M.
Cave, Regent, was in th e chair. The
meeting opened with a short prayer,
followed by the Salute to the Flag
anil America’s Creed. The singing of
“America” was followed by a short
business session in which reports
frem the various committees were
given. During the historical hour a
reading, “Hidden History in Chaptfer
Names,” was given by Mrs. W. H.
'Manning. A paper on Mother

Holland. An interesting contest was
held in which Mrs. Manning was win

Willie Holland.
Delicious refreshments, consisting

cotton fa.’mers. They use cotton for

for wrapping up broken bones from

•_.Before' delving too deep into af
fairs generally, I considered my
home" situation. And while I feel
that we are slightly bent, if not
plumb broke, we ar e better off than
many sections. I decided before get
ting back home—that one place is as
good as another, and if there’s any
difference, iC’s a darned sight better.
Note: We found two towns that
had the sam e price for gas and oil;
that was unusual. (The third spasm
of this 4-day vacation will follow next
week.)

A Week-end Vacation.
(Friday.)
Our scccnd day away from home
was net so eventful as we anticipated
The hotel that we stopped at had ad
vertised it- rcoms far and near in
this manner: “Room with bath, $2.00.”
We got one of those 2-dollar rooms,
but he charged us 6-dcllar s for it—
you see, he had 2-singte beds in it,
and having been married for nearly 20
yeais, we didn’t object to single beds.
WS^vent to the picture show
They had just reduced their price?
from-75 cent. 5 to 50 cents, thus get
ting down to within 25 cents of what
would be right. If me and niy folks
had not of been victims, the place
would have looked much emptier. As
it was, the house was about ?ne-third
full. Hoover prosperity adhrission
fees would .have filled that place.
'They will ’earn this the^day before
they bust.
— -You have no doubt observed that
o o
this vacation is southward. It was
cold when we left home, but just as
soon a s we landed in the “Sunshine
State,” r I had to invest in a pair of
heavies. The native? told me that
was the colcest weather Florida had
experienced since Cleveland’s admin
istration. I have been down there a
dozen tims when it was even colder
than that. One old man told me that i
it was down to' 28 in Cally-Fomey. j
Ycu see, Fla., and Calif., are stilly
rivals.' *
