Her iot formerly of Charlston, Jbiit who for the past three years has made his home in Saluda, has just announced that he will 0nen- a manufacturing plant frr the purpose of making vork gloves, shirts and over alls. The machinery for the Heriot Manufacturing company has been ordered . for several weeks, and notice has just been received uiai 11 win ue insiautu and ready for business by the hrst of January. .Mr. Heriot is at present re building a storeroom on, the property of the JIelrose Inn for the instalation of the first 20 machines. He has already se cured option on two pieces of property. One of them requires the construction : .of . an entire newiilant, and the other will call for a remodeling and addi tion to the buildings on the site. This option jyjll expire within another month, and at that time Mr. Heriot will announce which option he will exercise. There has been 20 machines or dered, and the 1st car to arrive this week contains four of them with a capacity of a gross pair of gloves to each machine. All of theTpresent machinery is fpr the purpose of manufacturing doves, but the plans call for in stallation of 80 more machines These other machines wi ufacture the shirts an .The entire plant wi ated with electricity-." inr iin hppn fnr enre gaged in conf ereJ' jith cot ton mill men v avor to have some pf W.jlf Jite here. He is vpt rea' t to make an p.ti,ncuncement along . . this line, but says "that1 , he " ' is still working on the plan, and that when his manufacturing .plant here shows the advanta ges of this section in power, la bor, quarters and cheap living conditions, he believes that it will be only a matter of- short time until one of the mills are located here. The past year has been one of progresk in general for Salu da. It saw the long dreamed of road .connecting this place with the Greenville Highway. This road J was just opened this summer to travel and has al ready proved what it will do for this section. There have been a built this year,, completing the link between here and the high way. The rdad is fairly well packed now, anl after the soak- this winter, it will be in splendid condition for a gravel Grossing next summer, and will. ffivu this town a direct highway' to Greenville and points South. One of the most attractive unions to the building of Sa- tiiis year was the erection of a twotory brick building that is cupied.'hy- the Martin Tea h'm, operated by the Misses -lartin and Baird, who for a dumber, of years' conducted a W(-;il known tea room in Ashe villu. . , - , -Jat summer the business j-" of. Saluda organized a Iuncheon society. These busi es men an invited guests t every Wednesday through 0111 the summer for lunch. It mainly through the meet that the enthusiasm was eated for the advancement of I Saluda. During the sum "fer there were large crowds f ,;l01' invited to these lunches ni m this manner " the local ;I'ulationlwas brought to di Jjp contact with the visitors; ral plans were laid last summer that the people ex . f L'1 u materialize before next nmer and which will be a at help to this resort town, p Die Herriot Manufacturing Jfnpany is direct result of mncnes.

Bank of Saluda and tne Saluda Pharmcv. Tt will be if the finest pressed brick, one side will be used as a bar ber shop and the other as a clothing store. In the center will be an arcade to a moving picture theatre, ' seating 300 people. The entire construction tion of the theatre will be of the best, and it will house the largest and finest organ of any theatre in a town of this size in the State. The Carolina State Bank and lhe Bank of Saluda are well pleased with the results of the past year, and both insti tutions report that they 'are in excellent condition, and that the population of Saluda and Polk County are in good finan plenty of money available ; and are taking a great interest in the development of this section into a tourist center and an ap ple orchard country. There has been quite a bit of activity in the orchard business this year, and several large orchards were planted during the past 12 months. Nearly all of the large orchards have increased their number of trees and all are busuy now making plans for he coming season to be the largest known in this section. There have been several new additions to the population this year. These people have bought their own homes and settled permanently. Several new brick houses have been constructed and all over town there is a general air of prog ress and prosperity. This year saw the firsV trend towards making this a winter resort, as a good number of houses have been rented for the winter. It this fall has been a fair sample the .,wipteher Olenitis: no need for people to" search for a better climate, as it could not be found within the bounds of the United States. FORCE EUROPE TO PAY Why the public does not rise on its hauunches and burst into a roar of haugiitf that echo around the world wnen suggestions are made that Uncle Sam should cancel Eu rope's war debt like the wisdom of the Lord passeth under standing. Last year the easy Ameri cans paid Germany $969,000, 000 for worthless marks. As fast as German printing pres ses could turn out the financial junk good American dollars were poured into Germany to bring -them to the land ' of the free. In addition to this stupen dous folly Americans tourist spent in Germany $75,000,000 which foots up just about 13 per cent of the entire war A nl f A n fVm n rl its tm4- American mfeney is even yeT turning the wheels of German industry. Ameriban brains are even now working to help solve the Germ n national pro blem. This year American children will play with German toys to the exclusion of toys of Ameri can manufacture. Summed up, - America stands today the world's great easy mark. Charged with being easy nation of dollar worshippers, we find ourselves the easy vic tims of every shewd European trickster and governmental propagandist. It is time we put a definite end to serious consideration of debt repudiation. Now's the time to talk ' real strict accountability. Let Washington announce that Europe to the last nation must pay her debts, and to the last fathing. , Daughter of Eve He: May I kiss you? She If you do I'll tell father. Silence.

The Xmas Bazaar last Wed nesday reflected, credit on the ladies, of the Baptist Church but when one knows- these workers one is not surprised at the beautiful success which, crowned their efforts. The large sum resulting from the sale was only a part of the suc cess really for the delightful manner in which -the affair was; conducted made the occasion ' a charming social event . also. Beside the sale of f ancv-work iiidyetcadelicio -dinner was served early in the i even ing, there being twelve ; tables each decorated to represent a month of the year, and presid ed over by attractively attired young, woman in white, and wearing dainty uniform caps. As one passed through the banquet hall it was difficult to" decide upon the most enchant ing spot, whether the corner where stcjod the 'January table with its lovely centerpiece a picture of ice and snow the Valentine, the St. Patrick's green and sokon through the twelve. Each place was a ver itable spot Unuasually at tractive were the artistic menu cards, which set forth, beside the bill of fare, a coupjet ap propriate to the month.- For instance the verse for the table where a pretty Xmas-tree was used for the centerpiece and "were the writer sat, served to start off a gleeful table con versation. As memorized: "Some call;-December "Folly- month l - The Misletoe-and Holly-month, Wlth kissing-games for girls and bovs. Old Santa Claus with loads of toys. Bui Golly! It's a jolly month." The menu consisted of oys ters, chicken salad, peas in pat ties, potato chips, hot rolls cake, pie and coffee. i Mrs. Hester with her corps of able assistants in the kitchen, Mrs. LeCount at the candy and flower booth, Mrs. . Wilkins with the gift department, the waiters and others are j to be congratulated on the pro nounced success of the Bazaar. FARM BLOC FOR FORD FERTILIZER I -o- While President Harding is straining every nerve to obtain a subsidy for shipping, the Farm bloc in Congress has de finitely decided to back the Henry Ford proposal to lease and operate the" fertilizing plants, at Muscle Shoals, Alab ama: Those bacE of the Muscle Shoals movement indicate their conviction that the quick and cheap manufacture of fertilizer is of more fundamental impor tance of the American farmer A Lfve toaPsper far iha toe December 14, 1922 than the establishing of an American merchant marine, much as that is to be desired as a trade builder of trade. : The Muscle Shbals bill will be backed in connection with a m a . . bill providing for an interme- diate iorm oi crejlit running six months to three from There is a marked opposition to tne leasing ol Muscle Shoals J I -m. r .... to tne lviicmgan millionaire. objectors contending "that government sell it all. urn. the the vides ente s certain cauital for tho enterprise for a long, period of time and at low i interest, and obtaim no guarantees from the II purchaser. It is absurd to Fore ; jf w wax w - d DroDOses to invpst liic miL liont s In an enternrise ard htn let is staornatpL ThP l,oof guarantee the farmprs fpi they have, is the1 fact that Mr. rora is neanng his sixtieth year and that his onlv now can come in honor arid in service, and not in the accumu lation of additional wealth. ii:e development of Muscle Shor.ls would mean the rpin. venatipn of the entire southern terntorv.

Caroha are now planning, to grow vegetables! on a commer cial scale, states4 F. E. McCall home garden specialist of the Extension Service. He be lieves that, there will be some failures, because many of the growers are attempting to grow specialized crops on too large a scale at firt. Such inquiries as thej following indi cate that plans Jare being made to grow crops about which neither the cultural nor mark eting (Question have been studied. The following quota tion is a sample of some of the inquiries now being received by the Division of Horticulture: (I plan to grow ten or twentv acres of peppers. Please tell me how to grow them and where I can find a market." Other letters of a similiar na ture are received with inquiries about celery, tomatoes, onions, and eggplants. 1 Mr. McCall states that hip division does not want to dis courage anyone; from growing vegetables on : a commerical scale, but he does want the grower to first Jfamiliarize him self with the (habits of the plant, the cultural methods re quired, the preparation for market,, and the market re quirements of the crop before attempting to grow it in a com merical way. I He should also have some knowledge as to s possible outlet j before under taking to growl too large an acreage at first.' The Division of Horticulture) will do all with in its power to assist any who attempt the growing of vege tables bttt the j growers must hold their acreages within those limits yhich can be ad vantageously handled. "A Man Learned In All The Wisdom Of The Egyptians" will be the pastor's subject at the .. Congregational" Church on Sunday morning.

W Vll W Jout of each 100 pairs of shoes ionroy men. bucn is the es timate going the rounds in the the Shoe Infiustry. x It iz surprising, if you have nciiccd hew many men wear rubber he'els. But maybe- you remember back only v a few years when rubber heels were unusual. What brought them into popularity? The answer is ADVERTIS- Three-fourths of the rubber heels sold are for men's shoes. This is because most of "the ad vertising has been directed at men. ' . One of liese days some wise manufacturer of rubber1 heels w.'ll notice this. Thenr he'll call in the advertising man and l. i . nr f . , .... iuii 3cuii oi writers and artists. Campaigns will follow. And sooii vvCrnan will be wearing jiist as many rubber heels as men. It's all a matter of advertis ing. the most powerful force in the sale floods. The ideal combination is advertising, Which reaches rnnsnnora' prams through their eyes, and iXrsondl salesmanship ;vvhich vncjuiiiUi ci ULU.L113 leSS vividly through the, ears. Our prcsc::t standard cf livr mg is largely the creation of advertising. For advertising creates the demar.d, makes people want the thing adver tised. When the lure becomes powerful enough, they hustle about and get the money to ob tain what they want. ' Advertising thus spurs sales. It also .stimulates production both of the things advertised and the things that have to be done on a bigger scale to ob tain money for purchasing ad vertised wares .There is a new -th mxxc agency s oi production. Most of us have been thinking of it merey as a medium of salesmanship. Advertising is what is mak ing us buy. Advertising is what is en abling us to buy. It creates the demand." And the demand induces us to work harder to get the money to Suisi;.iaAjp iH n -puods abruptly discontinued, the Am erican standards of living would quickly drop to the level of grandpa's day. Read the ads. They " are part of the news, telling the intimate story- of the average American's inner desire. THE REAL HISTORY OF CIVIL IZATION js WRITTEN IN ADVERTISEMENTS. o . NOTICE.
