Madden, Nov. 12.-Farmers are be
'inning to gather their corn. We hope
to see several good farmers here pre
paring for grain and we also want to
tsee a rivalry in what farmer shall get
the $:10 offered by two banks in Lau
rens---~25 for the best and $25 for the
cheapest acre of wheat. That is a
very commendable spirit in the banks
--the E'nterprise and the Parmers--so
get busy on that acre.

Cross Hill, Nov. 12.-The campaign
to raise the alloted. fund for Y. M. 'C.
A. work among. the soldiers was be
gun here Sunday morning.' A meeting
was held for that purpose at the Bap
tist church at I1 o'clock, presided ov
er by R. A. Austin, township chairman. I!
Splendid addresses in which the Y.
\I. C. A. work was explained and
strong appeals were made for help I
were delivered by Mr. A. C. Todd and
Hon. R. A. Cooper of Laurens. Othei
talks were made by a few others I
present. Over $340.00 was subscrib- c
ed on the spot and committees were
appointed to continue the campaign
t
work during the week.
A very good congregation greeted I
the speakers and every one seemed at- I
tentive and interetsd. The impression
left upon the minds of at least some
of the audience by the meeting is that
the Y. M. C. A. work among the sol
diers is the best substitute for home
life yet undertaken in behalf of the
boys who have left their home environ
ments. It is expected that Cross 11111,
as well as Laurens county, will do her
full share in this 4xcellent work.
Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, Rev.
.1. Fletcher Anderson of Williamston,
Ipreached at the Methodist church. Ills
theme was thai. the blood of Christ is
necessary and sutlicient for salvation,
explaining that without this, sin will
ever be a corrupting influence in
man's life.
After delivering an address Sun
dav morning on the Y. .\. C. A. work,
I Ion. i. A. Cooper boarded a Seaboard
