Venters, December 7:?Johnsonville Graded school gave a play, "The Only Girl," a comedy-drama in four acts, Thursday evening, November 26. It was a great success. "Dot," with her cunning little "Don't get mad about it," reply to everything said to her, proved to be quite an interesting and amusing character. The play was not the end of the evening's amusement, for the whole lower floor was turned into a candy booth, fruit booth, clipi pinp: booth and dining-hall, where a delicious supper of hot rice, barbecue, turkey, etc, was served. There was also a cake voted off, which was awarded to Miss Christine Newell. The proceeds of the play amounted to $87.00.

Venters, December 7:?Our community was saddened by hearing of the death of Mr G S B Huggins Sunday morning, November 29. Mr Huggins was eighty-three years of age, the oldest member of a family of twelve children. He leaves nine children, three sisters, and a number of grand-children and greatgrand-children. His many relatives and friends grieve to see him go but we feel that he is at rest in a better world. He has lived a long ? . s-.. ... 1 ? T"1 A and userui uiristian are. r or many years he has been a liberal supporter of the church, and has been instrumental in leading souls to Christ. He was confined to his bed for some time before he died, but bore his sickness cheerfully and rejoiced during his whole illness. He lived a plain life and it was his request that he be buried in an old style, plain J way. as his father and mother had been interred. THE COST OF PRODUCTION. United States Government Figures Cotton at 8.24 Cents. Washington, November 25:?The cost of producing cotton averages about 8.24 cents a pound, or twenty dollars and thirty-five cents an acre, according to Assistant Chief Nat C Murray, of the Federal Bureau of crop estimates, in a report published today. These statistics, the 'atest available on the subject, are the result of the investigation made in 1910. A similar investigation in 10f\L* v\?*A/)iinfiAn nr%ct af 1017U 5I1UVV CU bllC JJI UUUV.W1I vvov u. 5.27 cents a pound, or $15.42 an acre. Many inquiries, due no doubt to the general decline in the price of cotton, which on November 1 averaged 6.3 cents a pound to producers, compared with 12.1 cents, the average of the past five years on November 1, have been received by the Department of Agriculture. Yearly reports on the production cost are not made by the department and the results of the 1910 investigation had not heretofore been announced. ' It is pointed out by Dr Murray that the two investigations indicate , a material increase in the money cost of producing cotton between the two periods, the inorease averaging more than 3 per cent a year. A Rara Avis. Senator Neils Christensen has refunded fifty-five dollars to the State Treasurer of the sum of two hun- A dred dollars given him for services as Legislator during the extra session. He tried to have the Legislature fix the sum of five dollars a day for each member, but a majority did not see it that way. He is loyal to his convictions in act as well as spirit and deserves commendation, therefor.?Green wood Index.
