1SANTUC
Santuc, Jan. 26.?Mrs. F. M. Whitlock
and daughter, Miss Flossie are
spending sometime with relatives in
Union before going to Ridgeway,
where they expect to make their
home in the future.
Prof. Ilayne has moved his family
from Pacolet, and has been since
January 1st occupying the parsonage
building in the grove, near the Baptist
church.
Mr. Bernard Fant has gone to Atlanta,
where he expects to visit his
uncles, Messrs D. J. and J. P. Fant
and his aunt, Mrs. Willia Spencer.
Mr. G. W. Nabb, who has been
a very popular Southern agent for
the past two years, has taken a position
in East Spartanburg.
Mr. Kay, a Southern relief man on
section work, who is lnraterl hr>n
with his family has gone to Jacksonville
to visit relatives.
) Mr. Will Randolph, a young man
in business in Asheville, but a native
of Santuc, spent the week-end with
the family of his uncle, Mr. J. W.
Gregory, Sr.
Messrs W. O. Jeter and brother are
about to retire from their business,
(blacksmith and wagon shop) and go
on the farm this year. They will rent
their shop. A back to the farm
movement.
There will be a new business firm
here now, Mr. L. B. Jeter, Sr., L. B.
Jeter, Jr. and Mr. Parham Jeter, under
the firm name of L. B. Jeter and
Sons. L. B. Jeter, Sr. will conduct
his individual business at his old
stand also.
While many are advocating a bond
issue for permanent good roads and
talking about doing that cheap, suppose
they just cut out that thirty
foot proposition. There is really no
use in a thirty foot wide road. Twenty
feet is wide enough, even in making
sand clay road?if that can be made
good?it can be done and maintained
at one third less cost than a thirty
foot road. That is wide enough lo.
thite wagons to pass abreast without
danger, even of slipping into the side
ditches, if they are not too deep
and they should not be, for what 1
the sense of having gullies for side
ditches, when if a wagon slips into
them there is danger of turning oves.
Really there is no sense in having n
thirty foot road; if they can not be
kept from being cut up, a live hundred
foot wide road would be cut up
such weather as we have had.
Some people prefer cheap, shoddy
work to the superior kind. I saw
in a farm paper the other day where
a successful farmer said that he die
not want any of those "cheap" fellows
around him?the "cheap skate
kind. But I know men, and some 01
them have means who are always 01.
the lookout for cheap labor and cheap
all around help and cheap work will
not do. A man told me he had a lot
lumber sawed cheap and shipped it
and could not sell all of it. Probably
got it sawed for 10 cents a hundred
foot cheaper than the normal
good quality work, and lost out to tlu
tune of more than 10 cents worth ol
lumber. I have seen a lot of lumbei
that I know had more than 10 feet
of lumber out of the hundred, ..hat

You are right, Neb of Oakland,

But the presence of a pretty younjj
