There was not a great deal ( offered for sale, but what was, was t quickly sold cut There was a de- c mand for a much larger supply of I truck and produce than had been plac- c ed on the market for disposal. The calls for butter-beans, green peas and J string-beans were more than could be c supplied. Vegetables sold Tuesday e amounted to $11.00. The market will <3 open again next Tuesday and Friday morning, July 19 and 22, at 10 o'clock I and remain open until noon. Anyone having garden truck should bring it t in and give the people of the town and s community a chance to buy it. Beans b and peas should be shelled and put up o in packages of one quart each. Mutton corn should be offered in the ? shuck. 1 There is no reason why this market should not be made a financial a success. There are a large number i: of people living in the country who have vegetables in their garden going a to waste that might easily be convert- f ed into cash and at the same time meet the urgent heeds of the citizens g who have no garden to look to for a supply of fresh vegetables. v 1 In nearly every town the size of J King's tree, there will be found just I such a market as was opened here t Tuesday. And there is something for h sale the year rourtd. It should be so h here in Kingstree and we trust that the citizens will patronize the market d just been opened so that it inry be- * come permanent, also profitable to P those who have poultry, eggs, butter, v vegetables and other country produce to spare. P / * A town garden is necessarrily ex- a pensive, and usually are of short du- t ration. Many of us will have tfiem d at any cost because of the fact that heretofore there has not been a de- o pendable market, or supply, that we S might buy as we require. c a The Record office is in receipt of a p very creditable pamphlet, entitled 1 "Spartanburg, the heart of the Pied- * mont section of the Carolinas." The 1 nroo nronarpH nnd ttent out ^ |kuupiu<&v |/4v|/m-vm by the Spartanburg Chamber of Com- * merce. It sets forth briefly and clear- * ly advantages of the Piedmont city as the logical manufacturing and distributing center of the Carolinas. The I booklet is admirably designed, well i printed in two colors and carries a "! number of photo-engravings illustra- ( tive of the city's business, social, edu- ' - l - - i cational and religious progress; aiso a map showing railroad facilities and a drawing giving a bird's eye view of the city and surrounding country.

He said hat he had never done such a thing iefore, and was not familiar with the rigin of the tournament and that he lad tried to eprsuade some one else t<> lo it, some of the old men like Mr. Jraham McCullough, but they all said hat they didn't want to make a fool >f themselves, and since he (Mr. Spps) was the biggest fool in the rowd, that he would have to do it. Mr. Will McCullough crowned Miss dargaret Daniels of Indiantown,queen if the day. Mr. Dave McGill crownd Miss Pauline Snowden, also of In-j liantown, first maid of honor, and Mr. immie McCutchen crowned Miss 'ranees Flagler, second maid of honor.

The Williamsburg' County Chapter of the American Red Cross will station some young women in the tobacco warehouses in Kingstree during the tobacco season for the purpose of re- j ceiving such contributions in hanufuls ; of tobacco as the farmers will give' them. These handfuls of tobacco will j be sold and every penny realized will be used in this county for the general1 work of the Red Cross. The Red Cross employs a Home J Service Secretary, Miss Daisy B. Varn,i who is alwavs ready to give immedi-1 ate, practicu. relief wherever needed I in Williamsburg county. This year, no matter has come to the knowledge of the chapter without receiving careful and reasonable attention. And, the chapter has invited, and still invites, any one who knows an opportunity where it may serve, to report it. Not only is relief work done, but the Red Cross here has begun and is successfully promoting social service along constructive lines. It stimulates and encourages those things which are beneficial to the community at large. Thus it prevents unwholesome conditions while helping us on to a larger life. The Red Cross is just beginning in this county. It is obvious that funds are necessary to support this mission. It is believed that the tobacco farmers will give something out of their abundance to help prevent distress about them and promote rne general weuare of the people of their own county. Wm. W.
