Little Miss Henrietta Gilbert returned from the Greenwood hos- j Taylor’s Farm Record —From Keowee Courier— Congressman John C. Taylor, who has served the Third district in congress with distinction fox four years, and who has secured many benefits for all of the people, is a candidate for re-election this year. Mr. Taylor is an energetic pub lic official, whose' efficiency and attentiveness to every request from the district are unquestioned. Many people say: “If you want action, write John Taylor,” and they know their requests will re ceive immediate consideration and a prompt reply. We have been impressed with Mr. Taylor’s ability as a represent ative who does his own thinking and votes his convictions. We know he came up from the ranks as a textile worker, working from the time he was nine years old until he was twenty in the Chiquola mill at Honea Path, leaving the mill to enter graded school as a grown man and work his way through school and college, finish ing when he was about twenty- eight years old. That record im presses us, as it does everyone else in ths district, and we know J. B. ORR, Prop. he is friendly and Sympathetic to the textile people, as he is one of them. • It has recently come to our at tention ,that Mr. Taylor is a farm er. He has been for several years, giving his farm his personal atten- *tion. It is not unusual to see him, his neighbors say, during the threshing season, out with the farm boys down near Honea Path, clad in overalls, holding down a man-size job on Jthe thresher, or engaged in other kind of farm work when other congressmen probably were resorting to their golf sticks for exercise. Mr. Tay lor doesn’t own any golf sticks and belongs to none of the fashion able clubs and societies in Wash ington, but prefers to take his time off in the summer, on his farm, where he has made a good record as a practical farmer. He is regarded as one of Anderson coun ty’s substantial farmers, thoroughly conversant with the farmer’s prob lems. In the light of these circum stances, we are better able to un derstand why he always takes an interest in farm legislation, and supports measures in Congress that he feels will benefit the farmers he represents. Himself a farmer, he is in position to know their needs and give sympathetic consideration to them as important legislation comes before congress. Mr. Taylor points out that he could not support the proposals of Lemke, who is running for the presidency and trying to defeat President . Roosevelt, because the proposal would run up commodity prices on the wage-earners and salaried people, and at the same time, would be class legislation designed to help about one person out of thirty-two in the United States, at the expense of the other STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, County of McCormick.

Since we have heard more about Mr. Taylor’s success as a farmer, we can see why he always receives such a flattering vote, having led the field in the niiie counties of the Third district each time he has run.
