NEW HOPE New Hope, April 21.?The business session' of the Quarterly Conference was held at this place yesterday with Presiding Elder Stackhouse in the chair. The churches were all fairly represented in person and money. We think our-Charge about out on missions, earlier than we have been before. Messrs. Lawson, Mayes and Whitehead attended the conference from Bogansville. Were glad to have these good men with us. Mr. Thomas Hyatt and son, Jimmie, were here for preaching Sunday. We were treated to two fine sermons Sunday. One in the morning bv the pastor from Kelton, Rev. Gibson, and in the evening, one by our beloved pastor, Rev. Cook. Mrs. Wallace Whitlock, and Miss Ola Whitlock from Spartanburg, were here among friends and relatives Sunday. Cotton planting has begun, but don't think the farmers will plant as much acreage to cotton as they generally do. This country raises too much cotton. We raise at least two-thirds of the world's supply or have been doing so. Before the Civil War the South produced only about 5,000,000 bales. I Fifteen years ago it produced not I quite 10,000,000 bales. It has since 4 produced 16,000,000. Cotton since the I war has sold as low as five cents. It | has since reached 20 cents, with an average price of about 10 cents. = When a machine has been perfected that will meet the needs of small as well as large growers, a change will r De made in cotton growing. 1'roduc tion per acre must be increased. We need a cotton-picking machine. There have been many machines devised, e but wf haven't got a successful one yet. p We are glad to know that Field Day at Union was a success. p Mr. and Mrs. Ola Belue visited Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Whitlock Sunday. j Mr. and Mrs. Russel Belue visited their sister, Mrs. Stella Whitlock Saturday. Mrs. Ida Belue visited her daughter, Mrs. John Whitlock, Sunday and attended services. E. D.

Dy Kev. L). C. Wiley. Dinner will be served on the grounds. Rev. Wiley is serving this church at ^ present and his flock, are highly pleased with him. Goshen Hill is C noted for its hospitality and the good . things to eat on that occasion need not be named. So it is hoped there ' will be a large congregation to partake of this feast of soul and flesh. There is a mystery about the death of Charlie Gilliam, colored, who was ^ found dead on railroad two \V -. xago. It seems the negro was a tough one. It is true "the wages of sin is death." Mr. J. M. Major has just bought erty in Whitmire is high. b To show that Whitmire is not a n Sunday school, Mayor Smith and John Moss, chief of police, collected $75.00 this morning from the boys who did not go to church last Sunday. They had taken too much "conversation water" and the water whia^ disturbs : society. Mr. Osborne Tucker is" a candidate for townshiD supervisor of Goshen Hill. Mr. Tucker is the son of L. Herry Tuiker, who was said to be one of the finest men physically in the State. He was very popular; so is Orborne. Charley Willow is on the fence, halting between two opinions. That is, trying to decide whether he j will run for supervisor or not. If Hp runs he will "getvthere Eli." 1 It looks as if Reuben Willow will be rural" route carrier on new route 3 from here to Delta. Claud Gilliam, who up to a few weeks afro was ploceman here, has . yielded to the bat and ball fever and I joined a club managed by Newport 1 News, Va. While here he made a fine officer and we never had a braver * man. He made quite a reputation as pitcher with the local teams and since 4 going to Virginia he has been Rold to 1 Detroit. We are proud of him. He is a son of W. R. Gilliam and brother of Wallace W. Gilliam, who conducts a meat market and ice plant here. Attention, Royal and Select Masters!

The sun is shining beautiful with a few flying clouds. The planting season has come and this will' be a rushing week with the farmers, as most of them will get through planting their seeds. ltev. Mr. Stackhouse, the presiding elder of the Spartanburg district, spent the night with me last Friday night and I carried him to Fostei chapel where he held quarterly meeting. Today he will oe at New Hope. I attended Field Day at Union ant heard Dr. Snyder's address. Thert was a large gathering of teacher, and pupils, trustees and a few patrons, but not as many as should have been there. Dr. Snyder made a line talk along the lines of the work the teacher did with the material ht had" and compared the old school days with the new. He made many strong points tat every parent in Union county ought to hear. He said home training was neglected and the teacher had to meet this in the schoo. room. I agree with him, the discipline should begin at home and the teacher doesn't get the help from the parent, nor ithe trustees that he should get. I Mrs. Joe lianey of Union visited Mr. R.
