WHEN IT COMES TO INTERVIEWS
VICE-PRESIDENT HARRILL WANTS
TO BE JUST LIKE OFFICE BOY

-------------------------o-------------------------
"Greenville has witnessed remark-
able growth in the past decade" said
A. V. Harrill, vice president of the
Southern Public Utilities company,
who was a business visitor in the city
today. He arrived in this [section?] yes-
terday from Winston-Salem and came
here from Anderson. Mr. Harrill
seemed very optimistic over present
conditions.

No doubt he would very much pre-
fer not to appear as giving an inter-
view, which he did not do, for he
merely opened up his heart and seem-
ingly spoke as his conscience dictated
about business conditions and the phe-
nomenal growth of Greenville. He
stated in the beginning of his conver-
sation that he was averse to personal
publicity. "I had rather be considered
the same as the office boy of the
concern," he said.

Mr. Harrill says that business is
picking up right along in all the
cities his company is operating, and
he says Greenville is keeping pace
with the others. One department—
the traction company line—is not
keeping pace with the other depart-

[article continues on column 3, top sectioon]

ments. "This is our experience in all
the cities we are operating street
car lines," declared Mr. Harrill. "The
reason for this is the automobile. I
mean the private owner automobile
—not the street bus. If you will no-
tice right here in your city, you can
see four or [streaked] more persons gath-
er on the street corner getting ready
to catch a car and some person will
come along and pick up the crowd
and carry [streaked] to their destinations.
No one is to blame of course—all of
us do the same thing. It's the na-
tural thing to do. But such practice
certainly cuts into the receipts
of the street car companies."

Mr. Harrill is a very pleasant
gentleman and in time will be ac-
quainted with the Greenville people,
for he now plans to come here fre-
quently. He already has some ac-
quaintances here for he used to pitch
for the Charlotte baseball team many
years ago [during?] the time of organ-
ized baseball in the south—and his
pitching record is remembered by
some here now. He pitched against
Spartanburg on many occasions.

HAYNES WILL BE ABSENT
TO ATTEND CONFERENCE

----------o----------
The seventh of the Sunday night re-
ligious services which are being con-
ducted in Chicora auditorium by Ev-
angelist Carlyle H. Haynes will be
held tomorrow night.

At the service tomorrow night, the
subject will be, "God's Message for
Today." This address will be based
on the prophecy of the 10th chapter
of Isaiah, and in it Mr. Haynes will
discuss many of the ["isen"?] which have
come into the church during recent
years.

Because of other arrangements the
meetings of the Conversational Bible
class, which has been held in Chircora
auditorium every Sunday afternoon
will be discontinued, no meeting being
held tomorrow.

Because of the absence of Mr.
Haynes from the city this coming
week the cottage meetings and Bible
Studies which he has been conducting
in various parts of the city will be
called off. The evangelist is a mem-
ber of the executive committee of the
Southeastern Union Conference of
Seventh Day Adventists, and will at-
tend a called meeting of this commit-
tee in Graysville, Tenn., which will
take him away from Greenville for
practically the entire week. On his
reutrn the cottage meetings will be
renewed.

Ford automobile, announces that on
January 1st he will move his Ford es-
tablishment from its present location
at 406 S. Main street to larger quar-
ters in the Jervey Jordan building,
[822?] North Main. Mr. Thompson said
that he was moving into a section
which he believes will become an au-
tomobile center.

A number of other "moves" of va-
rious business concerns will be made,
it is reported, about the first of the
year.

PITCHER OF VICTOR MILL
TO GO WITH NEW ORLEANS

----------o----------
M. C. Daganhart of Greer, the star
twirler in the mill league, has signed
a contract with the New Orleans team
in the Southern League.

Daganhart pitched for the Victor
team last season and was a star at
every appearance. He made the record
of having pitched a "no hit, no run"
game and his work was always of a
high order. The announcement of his
transfer to the big league will not
come as a surprise to those who wit-
nessed his pitching last summer.

evening at 8 o'clock promises to be an
