A national movement is being put on foot to set aside one week during the month of February as "Pay Up Week". The idea is a good one and ought to be encouraged. Laurens ought to have itself included in it. What about it? The mor11e ini' I1o'tani t recoimenda tions inl the lilessage of Governor .\anning are 1rinted in today's paper.

Smith, Jr., a young lawyer of Flushing, L. 1. But he must also be credited with some mode tsy. More than 100 society girls on Jan uary 1 received the following card: "Nineteen sixteen being leap year, Mr. Clinton B. Smith, Jr., begs to an nounce that he is still ia bachelor." That is where his nerve came in. As for his modesty, he offered as an add ed attraction to himself the following: "V. B. His antique furniture goes with him." The young man, who practises law with hM'. father, was asked in his office in Flushing yester..ay if the sending out of the cards was a joke. "If youi saw some of the answers I received, you wouldn't thinik so," he reto rte..(. The term ":,irls," used abave, may bc mislead'ng. lie played no favor i'es in age. Spinisters regarded as having years ago given up hope also got cards. Indications are that lie has invited a siege and may be begging Cupid for a leap year imoratiorium. For Smith is prosperous, good looking, a neat dancetr and cleveri on the links. And his anti'ue fu:nituire collection is said to ie "(tiute lovely."
