THE HOME PRINTED PAPER.
Its Importance to the Lommunity
Cannot be Overestimated.
The local home printed newspaper,
if conducted on proper
lines, is the best friend and
most necessary institution local
business men can have. Such
a newspaper is ever ready to
advance home interests, and the
advancement of home interests
is of vital importance to local
business men.
It is evident, then, that a
home printed newspaper, un- 1
biased aDd impartial, is the
friend of the business men of the
town. These are facts that
must be admitted if given a moment's
thought. Business men
may have their personal likes
and dislikes tor the publisher
himself, but the paper should
have their good will and encouragement
at all times. It is necessary
to the success of not only
the paper, but to the town
and business men.
It should not be necessary for

but seme of it had to be watched
or it would have been sent
away.
No business man has a vestige
of argument to put to the
mail order patron if he himself
sends job printing away from a
home printed newspaper. Every
time a job of printing is sent
away from home the local paper
is antagonized. We ask, can
business men afford to antagonize
an unbiased home printed
>klAn/p f Vin 1 mno

dow used by The Record? We
do not threaten to become antagonistic
in return, but we do
call the attention of the business
men to their duty in this
regard and ask them to be considerate.
In fact, follow the
Golden Rule. Your home printed
paper will never antagonize
the interests of the community
in which it is located. If our
business men want a newspaper
as good as the best in the State
now is the time to give it
encouragement. We promise to
do our part.

GRAND EASTER BALL
GIVEN IN NEW HOTEL
ELEGANT DINING ROOM THE SCENE OF
A HAPPY AND BEAUTIFUL AFFAIR
FRIDAY NIGHT.
Kingstree's line new hotel is
not yet quite completed, but
enough so for occupation by
the lessee, Mr H Van Keuren,
and quite enough so to have

the 5th inst., of one of the
most brilliant balls ever given
in the history of Kingstree.
The spacious dining room,
beautifully decorated and brilliantly
lighted, was for the
time converted into the ball
room, and to splendid music
furnished by select musicians
from the Artillery band at Fort
Moultrie, gallant men and beau,
tiful maids united to chase the
glowing hours with flying feet
until the paling stars warned
the revellers to seek their belated
couches. It was a sight
to do the heart good, innocent
youth abandoning itself to the

more innocent and healthful exercise
can be indulged in than
the dance, properly conducted
and carried out, will all the
proprieties observed, as this
was? At about 1 o'clock during
the evening a lull in the
dancing was filled in most delightfully
with a service of coffee,
chocolate, sandwiches and
salad. Then on again with the
dance while "eyes spake love
to eyes which spake again."
The dining room of the hotel,
where the ball was given, is
splendidly adapted both for the
dance and for its original purpose.
It is forty by sixty feet
and afforded ample space for
about thirty-five couples without
crowding or jostling. Our
young people were reinforced
for the occasion with visitors
i rum i/dniugiuu, r iuicu^c,
Georgetown and Manning. It
