Don't be a knocker; hide your little hatchet. Spring is as far oil" as "Tipperar.\" ! it seems to this scribe. Faith in one's fellows i- as neces- | sary to good business as is the pre- j sence of n'oid. The "Tipperary Hats" arc the latest in wonn n'> head.irear. Whet n-xt What's in a name anyway. The Times endorses the efforts put | forth to have "Clean Up" Day in this I city. Let the ^ood work ko on. If you can't have your own way, let the other fellow have his. After ail, you miirht he mistaken, wise though you be. If Germany will continue to sink slups carry inn: passengers?men, women and children, she will no down in history as a nation famous in, brutality. ' We hope to see the "Great White Way" put into operation on Main street in the next few weeks. It would he in keeping with the advanced movements Union is making all alonn the line. 1 We congratulate the citizens of Jonesville upon their progressive < spirit manifested i?i carrying the election Tuesday for electric lights, j We feel sure tin- spirit of optimism they have shown is predictive of rapid future growth and prosperity, j Cotton on Thursday, April 1st, was !( 1-4 cents in Union. You ask: must ; one hold for a still higher price? We | do not know, it is only guess work Hut if one owes money and has cot- J ton, it is a poor business to hold and run tlv risk of having to sell for < less at a later day. Judge W. W. Johnson, our fellow < townsman, who is making the rac' ? for Congress to .succeed Hon. Joseph T. Johnson in the fourth district, ' will make a good race, and, if elected. j he will make a trood congressman. He will certainly yet a handsome vole i in Union county, his home county; I and if we mistake not, will yet a ( good vote in each of the nth> r coun- \ ti s in the district. (JOOI) FOR UNION ' Union people believe in Union's 1 future. As an evidence of this, one ' of our local banks, The Citizens < National, purchased the $2">,000 bond issue carried in the recent election } by an overwhelming: majority. Nicholson Hank and Trust Co., 1 another Union hank, had in a bid thai ^ was much higher than most of the j foreign bids. Bids were received ] from far and near, Chicago, Columbia and many other points. The Citizens ' National Hank bid, being the highest j was aeeepted. It frequently happens that municipal bonds sell b dow par, j and with a very hijrh rate of interest. 1 Union's bonds, bought by a local t bank, brought par, with a premium of five per cent interest. It shows that Union people believe in Union's fut- ( tire. This i as it should lie. How can the other fellow have faith in us ^i if we have not faith in ourselves. * And here's predicting that the next . five years will witness a splendid ad- / vance in growth and material prosperity. ' We have enough unwritten laws; 1 what we need is a few more unbroken i ones. JONESVILLE pi Jonesville, March 29.?The 14 *? months old child of Mr. T. A. Little- as john died last Thursday at Pittsburgh. Pa., where the grandmother, aj* who was raising it was staying wiih a sister. The remains were shipped to Jonesville, arriving Sunday after- " noon on the Carolina Special, and the ^ burial was held in the family bury- 'a ing ground, near Jonesville. Rev. Lewis M. Rice conducted the funeral mi services. M iss Aileen Bishop died at her home three miles out from Jonesville this afteVnoon, after an illness of sev eral months. Miss Bishop was 20 years of age, and was a sweet spirited young woman, well educated and accomplished. She was a member ot J. New Hope Methodist church and was G. of the highest type. It seemed that L. she had the promise of a long and Gi useful life, but several months ago Jdisease set its deadly fangs upon her W young life and tender form and slow- J. ly but steadily it made progress, A. without alarm, until it laid its victim Jo low. She was like the beautiful tints Jof the rainbow and the bringht sun- T1 shine in the home, but these have Bgone down and out, and darkness has M settled over the home that was so M bright L. "Dearest Aileen, thou hast left us, W Here thy loss we deeply feel, Lt Tho' 'tis death that hath bereft us, M (lod can all our sorrows heal. Yet again we hope to meet thee, When the day of life is lied, Then in heaven with joy to greet thee Where no farewell tear is shed." E< Some of the fruit trees are put- L. ting forth their blooms, but the cold I., weather is holding back most of the J. blooms and perhaps it will insure a C\ crop of fruit. These hard times we J. will need a good fruit crop to help 0< us along through the struggle. !. Dr. W. (). Southard continues quite M sick and his condition is getting to be J. acute. J. Farmers are late with their prep- IX arations for a crop, Init right now t'l thev are getting in sonv good work. L. M( ?ssrs J. W. Lipscomb and K. F. R. Kelly have swapped their autos for Al very fine new machines, and several others have bought automobiles in the immunity, which indicates prosperity in the land. ? Mr. Fastliani, the government {rood roads expert was here Saturday ac- ^ cord in a' to ai nointm n: and d divered to his ^addresses at the school audit!.rium and Bowen's store, there were but few to hear him at either place, I understand.

T. llames being the highest bidder, besides he gets tlu store, and is conducting the hardware business at the same stand. Miss Inez Spears, who is teaching ^1 at Cowpens, spent.
