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.

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.

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.

was "a feast of reason and a

At a doliar a year there is but a

don't put us to all this trouble and

to look at the label on your paper to

The Woman's Missionary society
will have a "Praise Meeting" in the

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
