Elements of
Oar Success
The increased resources of
The Bank of Williamsburg,
K, the increase in its volume of
business and its increase in the
good will of the people are but
the natural outcome of sound
policy, conservative and conscientious
administration and
painstaking attention to detail
work.
These are elements that combine
to make a progressive and
up-tc-date institution; elements
that have placed this bank
among the leading financial institutions
of the country.
We respectfully solicit your
account.

light of last week a storm of wind
,nd hail struck his place and did
jeat damage, the hail beating out

A change of schedule on the Atmtic
Coast Line went into effect
iundav, May 15. The local train
etween Fayetteville and Charleson
has been taken off and the
Palmetto Limited" will be operatd
as a local train between Fayetteille
and Charleston. This arrangement
proved an absolute failure,
/hen tried before and we doubt if
he change will be any more aceptable
to the traveling public at
his time.
A gift that we appreciated no
ittle came last Tuesday from our
olored friend of by-goae days,
'Uncle Lawyer" McFadden of '
)edar Swamp?a dozen nice fresh
ggs This kindly, thoughtful old
riend brought us the little reminder
.11 the way here on Memorial Day
md we nave received many a preset
of greater,intrinsic value that
vas no more sincerely appreciated,
f all the negroes were like old
'Lawyer," with all his weaknesses
tnd failings, there would be no
'race problem" 'to contend with.
It has been brought to our attenion
that in the report of the pro:eedings
of the county executive
:ommittee published in The Record
>n May 5, it was stated that the
issessment for road engineer was
ixed by the committee at $20.
This was a typographical error; it
hould have been $25, which was the
imount assessed candidates for road
ngineer by the committee, as is
hown by the minutes of the
ecretary. The error of the type
/as overlooked until our attention
/as called to it; so bear in mind,
andidates, that all who offer for
oad engineer must "come across"
or $25.00 toward defraying camiaign
expenses.
