MAY MAKE PAPER FOR THEMSELVES. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWSPAPERS MAY BUILD CO-OPERATIVE FACTORY. At an .informal conference of newspaper editors and publishers held in Columbia last Friday it was decided to call a meeting of the South Caro'ina Press association at which the shortage of news print paper will be considered. The meeting will be held November 10 at 2 p. m., the place of meeting to oe announced. The situation concerning news print paper is considered serious by the editors of the State and steps may be taken looking to relief. A committee was appointed at the conference to confer with officials of the Coker paper mills at Hartsville and J E Kocher, veneer manufacturer of Columbia, to see if either might offer relief. It was brought out that a paper famine is expected. H J McLaurin of Sumter has been invited to appear before the association and outline his plans for the establishment of a paper mill in South Carolina. A mill was recently opened in the State of Louisiana. The editors gave consideration to the organization of a co-operative paper manufacturing company to supply the papers of the State. The plant would cost about $70,000, it was estimated, and this amount, the proponents say, would be saved in two years. R C Wright of Columbia told of his investigation into the paper situation. He said that the paper mills are unable to fill their orders. It is probable that it will be necessary to increase the subscription rates for the county papers. A B Jordan, editor of the Dillon Herald, in a letter to the conference stated that it would be necessary for him to increase the price of his paper from $ I to $1.50 a year. It may also be necessary to increase the advertising rates. Personals Irom Hemingway. Hemingway, October 30: ? Mrs Leo Edwards of Savannah, Ga, is visiting her parents, Mr and Mrs N M Venters.

A Letter to Little Boys and Girls. i Children, how many of you are counting the days in which you may make something (just any little thing) to help make our county fair a success? Only a few days more, and we hope each and every child in Williamsburg county under the acre of fourteen years, will have some exhibit for the child's department, and be sure to bring or send it to Mrs D P Frierson. Mr? B E Clark son, or to the secretary, Mr George A McElveen. (giving him your age), on or before Monday, Noveml?er 6, or to the fair ground on Tuesday, November 7, no: later than 4:30 p. m. It matters not whether or not the article you make is mentioned in the list of premiums. If you have made something years, months, or weeks past, and have presented to some friend or loved one. go to them and ask that they kindly lend it, that you may exhibit at the fair, and will later return it to them. Every one is interested in the child's depariment, those articles made by the little fingers. So get busy, little folks, you may win a prize. If not you will have done what you could to make our fair a success, and gladded the hearts of many. Look over the premium list, if you haven't already, and decide what you will make. If you have anything in the line of canned fruit, vegetables, preserves or jeuies, jusi, pick the best of what you have, and only send one specimen of each; more than one article of a kind from the same person will cause confusion. And remember we want the children's department to be the best of all. Mrs B E Clarkson, Asst in Children's Dept. Rheumatism Follows Exposure.
