J 1- -; V1' TO PUT SAND ON THE : Right NOW is the accepted time toPput sand and plenty of it on the dirt- roads. Mr. J. C. Mo. row is at the head of an organization which proposes . do that very thine for a mile out Edneyville Road The sand ap plied now is worth ten times what it would be later. It's a pity there are not a doz?n road drag3 in the county to use now, also. The roads are in the right con dition to get the best results from this demonstrated successful method of making hard-surfaced reads. At The Palace. A glance at the crowd at the Pal ace last night would have oiereu n evidence in support of the claim tha the visitors are hieing away to thei homes. As usual, the theatre wa: packed even to and beyond the door; and many had to avail tnemseive of the seats outside the doors while waiting for an opportunity to see th mctures. Waiting outside is n really such a tax on ones patience flnvwav for some excellent music i heard even there and this changes the aspect of things considerably. 1 there ever was a true delineation o youth in all its glory of temporary power and, sometimes, consequent arrogance it was seen in one of the films last nieht. A true ana amus ing portrayal of some of the foibles and weaknesses of human nature.

Interest in the meeting grows per ceptibly from service to service Those who were so fortunate as to be present last night heard one of the finest presentations of the theory and practice of prayer that one hears in a life time .

The current rumor on the streets U authority for the statement that asphalt pavement is socu to be placed on some of the principal LurIdcm streets of the city. It seems that there is some real truth In the re Jrt and that In the couise of a fo wee kg both Main and Andeison tieets will be paved. A representative of the Asphalt Company Ig expected to reach Lore la a few dayg and It la very probable Jx&t terms will then be made for .aving the two streets mentioned, t'he present condition of these two treets. especially that part of An Jerson leading- to the station, make I ainiont inipeiatlve that gooieUilog; e done If the former gcyxl condition .s to be maintained. Visitors are jiven a rather severe ride In asm log rom the Ktation to the central part jf the city and If some means can be devised whereby this can be remedi ed then so much better for the wide ipread reputation of this summer re sort of the South. With these two streets asphalted the many new buildings now pro jected erected and the street car line in operation, Hendergonvllle will be more than ever a summer resort next jeason. She could then oner all that the season demanded In the way of modern conveniences and attractions. The season drawing to a clone has been far greater than any prccedlaic one and the season for the year 1911 alrady glvea promise of eclipsing any snioyed by this city. The people will ertally come, and the present plang ire In anticipation of their coming. Surprises on all sides will greet those returning noxf year Among the many good things which the new year promises to gee completed or, at east, in process of completion are a lew hotel 'at Laurel Park, Female College located somewhere In the city itreet railway system, free city deliv ery of mail, postal saving bank, and ast. but by no means least, asphalt pavement on the leading streets. Truly an alluring prospect for both che citizens and the visitor who some here so regularly that almost the same civic pride actuates their llscussiong of the resort In their ni tive sections.
