Epps of this place, each have a place on the program, their subjects being "What Davidson Needs" and "Compulsory Military Training," respectively. o Candidates Announce o In this issue of The Record will be found cards announcing their candidacy for office by, Messrs. H. S. Gamble, H. U. Kinder, and P. M. Brockinton, for the office of sheriff of this county. They are*all well known, citizens and anything that this paper might say by way of introduction would be superflous. They are all fine fellows and we wish it were possible for them all to have just what they want. Magistrate J. D. Gamble, who has been tried and not found wanting, announces his candidacy for re-appointment as magistrate of Kingstree. He's a mighty clever old boy and we are sure his friends will stick to him like tar to a blanket. o Mr. C. C. Burgess is out again after a case of flu.
