' , VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT. Some one has predicted that it would, rain until the 8th of August, i The rainfall on Tuesday night was nearly two inches. Almost as much as Saturday* night and Sunday. There will be evening service at St. Luke's Episcopal church on Sunday at 6:30 o'clock. t ' The communion will be ndminis tered at .the Lutheran Church ol the v Redeemer on' Sunday morning at 11:30. * j The Bush River Sunday school pic-! nic, which was appointed for today (Friday), has been postponed on ac-f count of the rainy weather. ! The Ladies' Aid society of the Lutheran Church of the ' Redeemer will meet with Mrs. A, J. Bowers Monday afternoon at 6 o'clocks Haltiwanger and Carpenter have! an announcement that should be of special interest to the ladies. Better see what it is. ^ ; The Delmar reunion of Newberry college, which was appointed for Friday (today), has been postponed on account of the bad weathor and will be heft some time in August. , ^ Better renew your subscription to The Herald ajid News wfyile the renewing is good at only $1.50 a year.. That is mighty cheap for a mighty good paper fo^ a whole year. r wWe told you away yoimer in the early part of the year ?bout the prediction of Mr. D. E. Sease^that we 4 I would have a wet y?ar. He has a sism that he has observed for 45 years and it has never failed and it has not failed this year. The recent rains have made the Piedmont highway impassable between Newberry and Jalapa and at the Gum Spring branch several cars were stuck on Wednesday and had to be pulled out. Cars have been de-, toured around by Helena. Let every citizen of Newberry read the report of the sp^ciPi com- j mittee appointed b? the 9itizens meeting on th<3 heeds of the Newberry school, and then let every one attend f iie citizens meeting called for Wednesday to discuss and adopt the report. Mr. John . Calhoun Harman who has large and varied experience in the 1 ?l>oe dry goods business, ana Willi lieu hosts of friends in Newberry and Saluda counties, is now with Mr. B. T. Anderson, the Globe Dry Goods company, and will be glad to see and to serve his friends. Cotton sold a few days ago in Newberry at 35 cents, but it does not remain there long. If the rains are elsewhere in the cotton belt like tney have been in Newberry it will not be long before the price will go higher, if the prospect for a short crop will have anything to do with the market. A negro man well and hearty was before the recorder on Thursday on the charge of vagranc^^nd was giv: - ? " , [en a sentence of thirty days or pay ja fine of $25.00. With as mufch work . | as is to be done around here there j I is no excuse for vagrants to be leaf- j i'ing: around and the pity is the rcicorder could not give 'em 00 days. i | There have been some mighty fine,* tomatoes grown in Newberry this j year by some of our expert garden-: ?~ r??. Von cjrviif-Vi Vma had a verv i CIO. 1~> 1 . ? ? - ? | fine garden. It would be a good thing j if some of these good gardeners j would can a lot of the vegetables. | They may be needed when the -winter 1 comes on. i The old Newberry knitting mill j can be turned into an ideal school: building for the negro children. If i you don't believe it just go around j to the office of the clerk of court and look over the drawings and see for yourself. It is the best solution of the problem of better facilities for these schools and can be done at a minimum of cost. | That was another heavy rain on Tuesday night and again on Wednes- J day. The creeks and branches have I been very much swollen and 'much: of the sand in the streets has been j washed back to Scott's creek. And the weeds are growing beautifully along most of our streets. It can't i be helped except by doing some work that will last and that will not wash away with every rain. Speaking about banks,it may be a little late after the publication of the report, but did you notice the report of the Peoples National bank at Prosperity? It was a fine one and the boys down there are walking about in the banking business. The total of the statement is more than half a million and the capital is only $25,000. In proportion it is doing more than the big banks of the coun ty. And President Wheeler nas Dorrowed very little money and paid for the government bonds purchased. SETZLER CAUGHT IN JACKSONVILLE.

Misses Sadie Goggans and Ola Brown, two experienced teachers, have accepted the work as organizers for Newberry county. This work is a part of the State department and has Miss Will Lou Gray at its head. The work has the support of the legislature in the appropriation of $25,000 to be used in teaching grown people who were denied opportunities as children. This along with compulsory attendance for those between 8 and 14 will wipe out illiteracy in Newberry county. It is urged that the trustees come and cooperate in one of the greatest school causes. - z ^ Timms?They tell me that Soke-1 leigh has signed the pledge. Tomms?Yes.

It is also responsible for a goodly percentage of backwardness in school. Perhaps your youngster's sight is defective. !t won't require much effort to find out and you will be better satisfied to know. J As your child grows into maturity and reaches the bifocal age later on in life, he will want the best doublevision glasses he can find. Then is the time he will own a pair of KRYPjTOKS, because their invisibility, | comfort and convenience will afford him wore eyesight enjoyment than 'any bifocals he can procure. j nn cmcnwr PIFRfF L7I\?
