Mrs. Roosevelt, the wife of the nev president, has announced that shi will have nothing hut white servant: about the White House. There is t< be a general cleaning out of the col ored help and white help will tak f K oluooa Wo nHmirfl hop fnqfp War reminiscences seems to be th popular tiling with the country week lies now*. Since The Times bega the publication of Reminiscences o the War by the old veterans who wer in it, several other papers are doiu likewise. We think it a good idea It will furnish valuable data for th future historian, and they bring t light many deeds of valor that wouli o herwise never have been brou^h from obscurity. The rising generatioi will thank us for it in the future whei they see accounts of the heroic acts of their grandfathers that they woul< never have known in the study o histories in use at present. If you want to keep posted tnk The Times. If you cannot afford t< take it get on the good side of you neighbor who does take it and h can tell you of everything of impor tanee that has happened during th past week, both at home and abroad and if you are real good he may len< you his copy of Thk Timks to reai until you can get in shape to sub scribe yourself and be independent Of course you would like to keep u| with the issues and happenings o the day. You can do this by sub scribing for I hk Timks. There an a few more of you we hare not go and we want you all. Get in thi swim by sending in your subscriptior at the earliest possible moment. B] taking Thk Timks you keep posted a: to all important legal notices, laru sales, etc. See the great list of lane sales in this issue. We have received a communication from a gentlemen in Union, thai is a personal attack upon the char acter and reputation of another man. and while he signs his full name t' the communication, which is the manlv thing to do, and while his charges may everyone ho true, it is a matter that does not concern us personally, and Which our readers are not interested in, therefore we thin* It, unadvisuble to publish the communication. Wo know that the writer is a man who would not hesi irtkie to mtB me music. nut it 19 our aim to keep the columns of I'hk Timks as free from thiH ?.ind of thing as possible, as we can see no good to result from it, and to publish personal and abusive letters between men because they happen to be at loggerheads with each other is not our idea of running a newspaper. It occurs to us that a grievance should be settled between the parties interes.ed rather than making a publicity of it throuL'h the newananers. V\ * are always ready to allow a person tc use our columns for a reply to any article that we may write or that may appear in the paper, which he thinks does him an injustice, (hit we will not knowingly allow Thk Timks to bo used for the ostensible purpose of beginning a mud-slinging and vilifying controversy between individuals. We beliero when the writer reflect over the matter he will aee that we are right. Subscribe for The Times and keep {posted. 1 j Our friend, Mr. W. P. Bennett, dropped in to see uh and he looked s ?o cheerful that he made us feel the mi me way. We asked him how was ] verything in his section, Meansville. "Oh," said he, everything is moving along. We askpd him About cotton, he said it was pretty good, grain crop ' had been very good. "Well," said * the writer, "I suppose the corn crop | is no good, all h failure etc." No, ] sir, said he not with us, while those 1 river bottoms were practically de- , stroyed, our corn is upland corn and , . is in good shape. We have nothing I to complain of, and he gave us $2 for ' two year's subscription toThk Timks, ] and hade us a pleasant good morning. < After we had caught our breath from ' our utter failure to pull out a single grumble of hard times, poor crops, scarcity of money, etc., we began to ( i" scratch our think gourd and wonder f if life was not much more pleasant ' to the man himself and to those with whom he came in contact when he i determined to Iook on the bright side of life and leave the grumbling to others. We believe it is so. We ? never gain anything by grumbling, 1 and we make ourselves and everyone J about us miserable by the practice ( , It is so much better to set the ex- : . ample of cheerfulness. It is an in- ' i , spiration to others. Men like to get , p around the cheerful one and feel I better from the association. Would that more of us could learn to cultiv vate the cheerful spirit and contented p mind. p -'Laugh, and the world laughs with ) you, . Weep, and you week alone. (1 1'ell not your trouble to this cold world, It has troubles enough of it own." e The census bulletin gives the num her of inhabitants of Union county n 21 years of age and over as follows: 1 Whites, literate, 2 129; illiterate, e 118. Colored, literate, 1,19ft; illit? erate, l,ft80 of native born. NaturalL iz-d 10. First naturalization papers e filed 1, aliens 2, unknown 5. This ? show.. what an effort the negro is making to become educated. They t number less than one thousand ben hin t us while they have only had n 85 years of emancipation. The whites i have had school advantage all the ri time. The white people are two caref less about the matter of educating their children. But it is encouraging to note they are beginniag to wake up to the importance of this matter. q An education is a priceless legacy. r Master's Sale. e State of South Carolina, ) Court of Com_ County of Union.
