It was doubtless a cheerful idiot who wrote this, but it. has some good sense and meaning to it: What are you croaking about the high cost of living for, you ninny? Hadn't you noticed that the higher it is the more the farmers prospered".' I rue, the I middle man pets away with a lot of , it, but who ever saw farmers so prosperous as for the recent past? There is where you will find the nest-epp of pood times. If meat poos too hiph for you, po to huntinp pround hops.

Let prices soar. The thin c for you to do is to go to raising something to sell and stand in with the soaring crowd. Any price is too high for the man with no money to buy with. Back to the farm you pauper, and get rich.

The collection of cottons arranged by the department of agriculture will he included in the exhibit to be s< it by the experiment station. Practically every variety of cotton has been collected by the department for the display, which is considered one of the most nearly complete in existence.

CHRISTMAS SHIP SAILS WITH TONS OF GIFTS Gifts Are Meant For All of the European Countries Involved in War. New York, Nov. 14.?With more than 1,200 tons of Christmas gifts from the people of America, a Santa CJaus ship, the naval collier Jason, sailed today for Europe. A message of Godspeed from President Wilson was received by IJeut. Commander C. F. Courtney. U. S. N., shortly before sailing time. The docks as the ship cast loose her lines were thronged with thousands of school children. The pifts that the Santa Claus ship carried were gathered from every State in the Union. They include almost everything from toys and dolls to clothing and food. So heavy was the rain of Christmas presents for the children of Europe that a force of ninety soldiers and sixty sailors from tin' navy yard was renuired to rereivn ami classify the gifts as they arrived ami repack them so that an equal distribution might be made in the several countries for which they were intended. Summary of Cargo. A summary of the cargo made by Commander Courtney shortly before sailing showed the following items: Fourteen carloads of children's clothing, five carloads of women's clothing, one carload of men's clothing, five carloads of toys and fiftyseven carloads of miscellaneous presents, foodstuffs, boots, shoes, etc., a total of eighty-two carloads. The ship will call first at Falmouth, where the gifts intended for England, France and Belgium will be discharged: then she will proceed to Rotterdam, where gifts for Holland and Germany will be discharged. At a later date another consignment will go forward for the people of Russia and Poland. Nearly all the gifts received were accompanied by notes of good will written by the donors. As the spirit of neutrality of the United States was unwittingly violated in many of these missives it was iouihi necessary to withhold them. A large quantity of. clothing that was found unlit for immediate shipment, will he sent to Ellis Island for cleaning and fumigating and will afterwards be taken in charge by wives of army officers who have volunteered for the service and prepared for a later shipment. NEW HOPE~ New Hope, Nov. 17.?After an absence of a few editions of our county pa nor. will give a few dots from this vicinity. It was our pleasure to meet the venerable Mr. and Mrs. "Vox" while on their visit to the synod in Union some time ago. It was a pleasure in I 'od, to talk a while with this grand old man. The influence of his conversation always makes me feel that I am a better creature than I really ! think myself. I have always looked I upon him as a good man and a great I man, even from boyhood. Have alOfc^ys admired his writings, and disappointed if our Union Times has not a letter from him each week. It is wonderful that he is endowed with so much energy. Better than all, he and his wife are saturated with the love of God. Today is cold enough to kill hogs; some have already been killed. I hear the cry of hard times, it is hard with some, l>ut I never hear the ones who are most in neeil utter a word of complaint. We have some in our county and even around us whom I know to need help as well as those who are having millions sent them by the shipload. .Many of our own home people will smTer this winter for food and clothing. Some people tell us not to cry hard times. It it no use, they are here and everybody is feeling it. The regional banks are now open?we wait to see the improvement in business. There is one man in Union county who says what cotton shall bring here. i*>o you wonder at times being so hard. This same man also said he thought 7 cents a fair price for cotton. Is that the kind of a man the farmers need to help them along; a man who talks thus does not know a bit more than a child what it takes to produce a stalk of cotton. There are people right around us who would like to see the farmers with their noses to the grindstone. We know who they are and the time is coming when their beds will be of thorns? hard to lie on. Oppression of others will be the cause. I am glad that it is as well with me as it is. There has been some grain sowed, but not much wheat. The farmers are not able to buy to seed. Some set of men are responsible for the present conditions. We feel for those who live in town and are not able to buy wood and coal. The Bishop school has opened with a good attendance. Miss Aline Bishop is teacher. Mr. Becknell has finished and moved into his new cottage. Mr. W. F. Bishop is helping to build the schoolhouse near Mrs. Amanda Little's place. Mrs. Nancy Ward of Pacolet spent a few days last week at the home of her brother, Mr. Munro Whitlock. Miss Dora Whitlock of Union was up on a short visit a few days ago. Mr .and Mrs. Walt. Palmer were the guests of Mr. J. G. Bishop last week. Our pastor, Rev. .1. A. Cook, preached his last sermon here Sunday.
