The White Oak school will begin the 1914-15 session next Monday, October 5. Miss Pauline Cantey of Workmanjwill be the efficient teacher; having taught the last session here she is no stranger and many of her pupils will wlecome her back, ? ^ again. A "double-header" game of baseball was] scheduled to be played here [Saturday between the Cedar Swamp and White Oak teams, but for some unknown reason only a few of the Cedar Swamp players were present, and the games were called off. JThere was a practice game played Saturday morning, the Cedar Swamp boys taking some visitors as players; but being far outclassed they refrained from playing the afternoon game. Chief of Police A W Ward of Scranton spent Sunday with the r family of his brother, Mr G W Ward. Mr Early Dewitt went to Charleston Monday to undergo treatment for his eyes.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines. If you want to contribute directly to the occurrence of capillary bronchitis and pneumonia use cough medicines that contain codine, morphine, heroin and other sedatives when you have a cough or cold. An expectorant like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is what is needed. That cleans out the culture beds or breeding places for the germs of pneumonia and other germ diseases. That is why pneumonia never results from a cold when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is used. It has a world-wide reputation for its cures. It contains no morphine or other sedative.

Our humble opinion is that the fertilizer people could relieve the farmers of this distressed con- J i dition (for we believe that at least i 60 per cent of their indebtedness isj for fertilizers) by accepting cotton I at ten cents and storing it. The farmers are willing to lose their profit of two cents a pound and deliver the cotton at actual cost, which is ten cents. As circumstances face the cotton grower now, he is expected to bear the total loss on cotton and pay dollar for dollar when the fertilizer ?--- ?J _ _1 l.. j bills become aue anu uuuuu,y 10 du , badly hurt as the sons of toil, who : apparently have most of the burden to bear.

We are confident that our people realize the importance of a firstclass, up-to-date country school and they are {working together toward that end. By the opening day next year, we hope to have four teachers instead of three, as well as other improvements which are much needed.

Disordered kidneys give many signals of distress. The secretions may be dark, contain sediment. Passages are sometimes frequent, scanty, painful. Backache is often present day and night. Headaches and dizzy spells may occur. Weakened kidneys should receive quick help. Don't delay! Use a special kidney remedy. Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys, backache and urinary disorders. Marion evidence proves their worth. J T Dozier, Deputy Sheriff, Marion, S C, says: "I had backache, coupled with pains across my loins and my kidneys were badly disordered. I read about Doan's Kidney Pills and deciding to try them, I got a box. After using them a short time, the backaches and pains left me and my kidneys became normal." Price 50c, at all dealers.
