Mr C E Harris, the well-known Greelyville contractor,visited Kingstree Sunday. Mr Harris has been awarded the contract for the big brick stables the Greelyville Livestock Company is building. This structure is to be 90x120 feet in size, making it the biggest building of the kind in the county. The esti-1 mated cost is $6,000. The local fire department, which received ten per cent of the money taken in by the carnival side-shows, got for its share about $90, we un derstana. ii would De a conservative estimate to say that not less than $2,000 was taken in during the week, all told, and the community is that amount poorer, less the pitiful rakeoff the fire department got.

A friend from a neighboring county whose business brings him in touch with quite a number of county newspapers told us this week that The Record was the best county seat weekly in the State. While we believe our friend's opinion was not mere idle compliment, yet we beg to differ with him. It is our desire to publish the best weekly newspaper in the State, but that is our ideal. How near we shall come to attaining that ideal depends wholly upon the support and co-operation given us by our subscribers. Tuesday was ye editor's birthday ! and not a single reminder of the day. We will forgive this oversight on the part of our kind friends if they will come across right liberally with a dollar or two on subscription between now and next April to help us keep up the payments on that new press, as they become due. If you've paid ahead for the paper let us print your letter heads, envelopes, legal blanks, or anything else you may need. We have a splendidly equipped job office and guarantee satisfaction on every piece of work turned out. Moreover, we will meet prices on any job. Send in your orders.
