||tie ||enili! anH je?s. Entered at the Postoffice at Newawry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday, December 10, 1915. We had just a little faint hope that Governor Manning, when he named his -delegates to the commercial congress in Charleston, would honor us with an appointment, so that we would have an excuse to take a day off and ruu down and take a look over the battleships and the battery, but we have looked over the delegates named from Newberry and we looked again, but our name does not appear. But, thanks to Secretary Snell and the genera] committee of the Southern Commercial congress, we have received a very cordial invitation, and this is added: 'We -sincerely hope you will be able to accept this invitation and will be glad to hear from you at your earliest convenience in order that we may provide accommodations and reservation at the - i ^ j.: >> TTT-> various social iuiicuous. i uauAs. will try to go if for only a day. We are pleased to see iliat the railroads are going to make some improvements on the union station in Columbia. For a modern and lately built station, we think it is the most inconvenient and poorly arranged of any station we have ever seen. It is to be hoped that while thep are at it again they will do the job right. We have not seen where any one has issued a call for the meeting to organize that connty fair association. No doubt we have overlooked it and the meeting will be held .very soon. Why wait? Now is the time to organize and get to work on the arrangements for the next fair. Who is the live business man that will take the lead. That is all that is needed. Don't be bashful when there is opportunity to serve your county. Take hold and do something. We will help you and stand by you in your efforts, for we know the thing will succeed. i We drove out to the country place on Wednesday evening of Mr. 'C. S.' Suber to attend the marriage of his ( oi*lv daughter. Miss Mary Frances, to Mr. Patrick Bowers Mitchell of Pros-; perifcy. It was a delightful fall after- i noon. The weather was all that could be desired. Cool and crisp and the! t heavens studded with myriads of stars.!

It was one of your old-time country weddings. As you approached the' home bonfires were burning and tti-j * negro cabins were surrounded by the, servants in their best bib and tucker ' to honor the marriage of the young i mistress. And there were some two hundred 1 friends of the family present and there | was a plenty to eat for all, and such j fine country ham and home raised tur- j fcejy and home-made pound cake and j ! home-made fruit cake and chicken sal?d, and the way some of these town, fellows did eat would make your heart glad to know that they had such appetites, but who wouldn't be tempted to eat such good cooking. And then the Appalachian highway ; makes it a pleasure to drive out thai way. It is not as good as it might be,' but the good people along the way inintend to see to it that it is kept dragged and some time in the near future it is hoped to have it widened. Mr. Charley Suber is one of the largest and most successful farmers in the county and he raises his own hog and hominy. We wish the young couple bon voyage. According to a legal advertisement, Greenwood's town council says- that every person or persons df-aling in the sale of "fresh sausage" are subject to paying a license of $5.00 per annum.? Which means of course that dealers in scale and sour sausage may sell their sausage free of tax.
