I f[OCWifEM&]f I ^ ^ 4 Cotton is quoted to-day on the local market at 14 cents; seed $30 the ton. Christmas is just around the corner. The Civic League met at 4 p. m. yesterday. The cold wave came on schedule time Tuesday. r Have you {>aiu for your paper? If not, why not? Jenkinson Bros have a message for you. See their big ad. See ad "Among the Breakers," Johnsonville Graded School. Owing to the pastor's absence at- j tending conference, there will be no i preaching in the Methodist churchj next Sabbath. J To the several hundred subscrib-1 ?ers who owe us nothing: or are paid I in advance, our appeals are not di- j reeled. But, sad to say,they are in a minority. Don't overlook Dr H I) Reese's invitation to those afflicted with poor eyesight or defective eyeglasses. He will be in Kingstree at Watts & Watts, Jewelers'. Decem5-10. Our collections this month on subscription have been barely enough to pay freight on print paper, without which of course no paper could be produced. What is the matter with our subscribers, anyway? kOur Christmas issue will be published next week, the 15th inst. Advertisers will please let us have copy as soon as possible. A lot of ^vork is required to get up this pa I per and we must have time on it. A small wart ad in the Record brings results, as many who have tried our classified column will attest. Of course, the bigger the space the bigger the results, if the ad reads right and the advertiser) keeps faith with the public. f I It looks hard to be borrowinng | inoney to keep this paper going when j ke have about a thousand dollars bwing us in little driblets of one to | jive dollars, that could we collect it would put us on "Easy street." Why ; lon't you come up like men and do i Ihe right thing? I Attention is called to the five hank j Itatements published in this issue.. rhey speak for themselves and indi- j late, more forcibly than any other Irgument, the prosperity of our1 Bounty. Time was when the man who had "money in the bank" was pie exception; now he is the rule. f The membe -s of Kingstree Camp No 27, Woodmen of the World, en- j joyed a supper at Meyer's cafe | Monday evening, The "Choppers" i Eh Now and their guests numbered thirtytwo, we understand, and the occasion was "a feast of reason and a Mow of soul" in the best and true-t sense. To send out l.Oon statements will >st us-Silo postage.not counting the, labor of writing and mailing them. At a doliar a year there is but a >mali margin of profit <>n the paper we send out, anyway. Now, friends, don't put us to all this trouble and .\\l>on-e when all you've got to do is to look at the label on your paper to tell what date your subscription expires. I The Woman's Missionary society will have a "Praise Meeting" in the Presbyterian ^church, on Friday ; evening.

Friends, don't ask us to do impossible things. Our limit lor receiving articles of length is Tuesday noon. That is the final limit. When you ask us to make an exception to this rule j you put us in an embarrassing position: we want to be obliging and yet i to^iccept belated "copy" throws the paper late and subscribers complain, j as they have a right to do. Be rea-1 sonable; it's hard work and takes j time. In sending us newsof the death of a relative or friend, please don't wait a month or two, when it ceases to be news. We charge one cent a! word for obituaries regardless of ! when sent in; death notices are pub-! lished free when they come as news! ?not a month or a year after the j funeral. Obituary poetry,or extracts! from the hymn book, are printed only at one cent a word. Please don'tj ask us to deviate from this rule. The ladies of the Civic League have at considerable expense employed a man to clean the streets j and side-walks of unsightly debris and rubbish. On behalf of the ladies who are striving to make the town ' cleaner and more sanitary we ask all1 merchants and shop-keepers to co-! operate with the league by making 1 an effort to keep their premises! clean and not allow trash and by- i products to accumulate, especially in i front of their places of business. Master Wilmot Scott Allen was"at1 Inme" to his friends yesterday afternoon. 3:30 to 5 o'clock,, the OQfcasion being his third birth-aay. The little folk played out-doors till they were full of enjoyment, then they filled themselves to repletion with ice-cream and cakes and other appetizing delicacies. The hospitable , young host bore off the honors of the J occasion with grace and courtesy and I received many tokens of remembrance from his youthful associates. The president of the county teachers' association wislfbs us to announce that President "Haynes", of Columbia (as near as we could get it over the long distance 'phone)would be present at the next meeting of the association to be held here December 10. The alleged long distance service here is a joke, to put it mildly. We lost several hours Tueesday trying to get this message and finally, six hours after the call first sounded, some kind of message got through.but the sound is transmitted so imperfectly that it takes half guess-work to understand anything. We are indebted to our thought- i ful young friend,Master David Nexsen, who lives near town, for a nice bunch of partridges piesented us last week. They are the first we've eaten since last fall and to say they were enjoyed to the utmost would but faintly express our appreciation, j This kind friend says that he had \ sent us a bigger string a few days | previously, but before they were delivered somebody "swiped" them from his messenger. To lose a gift of nearly a dozen quails jrhen they ; come our way so seldom, would have been little short of a calamity i but for the consolation derived from j i tt?<i connnH crift ALF Dress Goods.
