FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1913, IMPROVED POSTAL SERVICE A conunitte was appointed by ! the Chamber of Commerce to take up the matter of getting the cooper-. ation of Congressman Johnson in urging the government to establish sereral new routes out of Union. The i committee had an interview with Mr. Johnson. He gave the committee to | understand that he would do every- : thing in his power to get the proposed additional routes; he also promised his help in having route 3 changed to a daily instead of a thrice-a- : week service. Congressman Johnson also stated that he would cooperate with us in an effort to get an addiiiJi r tirnal ^ree delivery for the city. O LETS HAVE IT. It is rumored that there is the possibility of the city purchasing four acres of land belonging to Mr. I). C. Flynn, lying to the left of West Main street as you go out of town and before you cross Tosch's branch. The i idea in the purchase is that the four ^ acres to be turned into a park. The j city authorities, it seems to us, would make no mistake in obtaining this | land for that purpose. It would be ] of easy access to the large population at the Union mills, and not very inaccessable to those living at the Knitting mill. In fact, it would be ^ within reach of the whole population j of Union. The city park we now have \ is too far out to benefit the very peo-! pie much in n^ed of such a place for J recreation?the mothers and small children. If the land could be purchased at a reasonable price, we see I I no reason why it could not be obtain- i ed for the purpose above named. There are a number of large shade trees already there, and it would require very little outlay to convert the land into a neat and attractive park. O MUCH GOOI) ACCOMPLISHED. Now that Dr. L. A. Riser's campaign against hookworm disease in this county has come to a close, it does not mean that the work is fully , accomplished. There are, no doubt,' many who have the disease, especially among school children, that did not apply for examination. More I than two thousand examinations j showed several hundred cases of the ' disease. And the probability is that there are many children not yet examined who are suffering with the disease. But the campaign will con-1 tinue to hear fruit; many parents will have their children examined by the family physician. j\s the Rood results of the work already done, becomes more and more manifest, there will be many who will consult the family physician, and there secure treatment, if it transpires that they are suffering with the disease. We trust each reader will noti the pictures on the front page of tl issue, and read what is there sa The young lad whose picture is the shown, and who is suffering wi hookworm, was willing that the p ture be published for the benefit larger of the two boys, and who is others.

Sunday's Greenville News) Yesterday afternoon the Chamber p of Commerce secretaries of five Piedmont cities?Union, Anderson, Sparhe tnnburjr, Greenwood and Greenville? met at the Ottary hotel and perfectw" ed an organazation the purpose of nK which is to work for the general bet>n: torment of the Piedmont section. The ,n' plan of this organization in broad >s" outline is for the several commercial organizations to work in unison to in" procure those things which will be en of benefit to the section as a whole. !nt Instead of the dissipated energy of, each city working solely for itself iat there will be cooperation in such >r" matters as affect the whole section ia^ such as good roads, the general commercial interests, the advertising of re~ the Piedmont, etc. The secretaries who attended this meeting and the ?_n cities they represent are as follows: 's Mr. W. K. Sumner, Union; Mr. P. A. Whaley, Anderson; Mr. John Wood, Spartanburg; Mr. S. B. Marshall, Greenwood and Mr. A. S. Johniro stone, Greenville. This organization, to be known as the Piedmont Commercial League, will undertake to furnish news mat!re ter with reference to the Piedmont re" section to two hundred of more pn ch pcrs throughout the country, thus ed keepjnjr before the country the ad'a~ vantages of this section. The idea is not for this organization to seek spccn(* ific industries, this being left for the individual ciues, out rather to dirsoniinate knowledge concerning the general climate, social and commer,ve cial conditions. The League will meet each month in one of the cities he represented, the next meeting heing scheduled for Union, on June t'.ie third. Just subsequent to this gath!y, ering the secretaries will go to Charleston where on June the fourth the we South Carolina commercial secretarce ies will meet and where 011 June the ,s" fifth to seventh inclusive the commercial secretaries of the South will >ur gather. ion The Shiboleth of the organization is cooperation, the members believflfg or? that this is the only way to bring :ed the quickest possible development to h? any section. And with the developwe ment of a section the cities within r8- that section must perforce develop, ss? hence the sanctioning of this organization by the officers of the several re* Chambers of Commerce. er nd *** *** * to * MONEY * *********** If money talks, es~ As some folks tell, 'iM To most of us !eP It says "Farewell." ce? ?Ladies Home Journal, w And then to others? tor It's sad but true?

Deafness is caused by an :se inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this * tube is inflamed you have a rumbth ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the incarnation ild can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases :U- out of ten are caused by Catarrh, \ which is nothing but an inflamed con'* dition of the mucous surfaces. he We will give One Hundred Dollars a. for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by A- Hall's Cartarrh Cure.
