THE WAY OF THE WOMEN
How a Meeting of the Kings Daughters was
Conducted.
| From the New York Sun. I


At 4 meeting Of L dozen ladies the
other day to organize Il lodge of the
Kings Daughters, the utter unfami-
liarity Of women with parliamentary
law or even with the general idea OF
organization was somewhat humorous.
ly illustrated. After they had sat
looking at each other tritle ncrvously
for awhile, one of them said:
"Well, here we are. What are we
going to do?!"
"Oh DEAR" said another, 81 don't
know, but let's do something.
At last Il young lady suggested they
might try not TO say mean things about
other people until next meeting, any
way. Everybody thought that would
be nice. Just as they were adjourning,
two hours later, a lady exclaimed:
ooh, l suppose we ought to have Il
PRESIDENT"
"Why, of course, we ought" said
another.
II don't suppose anybody will object
to Mrs. Brown for president,' said i
third, "Iet's have her"
"All right, lets" echoed the rest.
And nobody objected to names propos-
ed for secretary and treasurer, either.
\ few days later the fair secretary
consulted Il gentleman acquaintance as
to how she should write up the minutes
of the meeting.
"Nell, you ought to begin by saying
who was chairman of the meeting"
"Why, we didn't have any chair
man." said the girl.
"Who then put the motions before
the meeting?" asked the gentleman.
"Oh, we didn't have any motions.
Somebody would say she thought such
a thing would be nice, and all the 9TH
ers would say they thought so too.
That was ALL"
"If that was the case" laughed the
gentleman, you will have to set it
down in the minutes that such and
such measures were informally APPROX
ed. But you must state clearly that
the club was organized and write out
the name Of your particular branch or
lodge and the constitution and bylaws
you adopted; and then"
"But We haven't got any name," in
terrupted the girl, ''and we didn't
adopt any constitution and bylaws.
What was the use? We all knew what
we were there for. Besides, we didn't
think of that"

The New Of1cers-A Team of Sixteen Men

At a meeting of the fire department
of Newberry, held On Tuesday night,
the following names were suggested to
the council to be elected as Board of
Fire Masters: J. f. Brown, chief; S. B.
Jones, lst Assistant; :. J. Mclaughlin
I'd Assistant. The council will meet
tonight at which time these gentlemen
will likely be elected.
The resignation of Geo. S. Mower as
president was received and accepted
and w. H. Hunt. Jr., was elected
president and John NJ. kinard Vice
president. Mr. NJ. Foot, Jr., is the only
officer who has held office continuously

secretary and treasurer at that time and
still fills the office acceptably.
Capt. J. W. White will leave for
Anderson on Mondy with 4 team of
sixteen to attend the tournament and
we confidently expect the boys to re-
turn bearing with them the first prize.

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.

Garden vegetation is growing nicely.
"Gen. Green" has been enjoying good
health.
Last week was indeed a week of rain
and mud.
Mrs. S. L. Shelley has again been
having chills and fever.
Monday was saleday at Newberry,
but very few of the farmers in this sec
ton observed the day as such.
Watermelon patches in this section
are looking rather backward for tie
time of year. Too much rain might be
one cause.
The past few days has found great
many of our farmers busily engaged in
the harvest field and we are glad to
state that the grain crops generally so
far rs we can learn are turning out
better than was once expected.
A great many of the people in this
community will attend the commence
ment exercises Of the Prosperity High
School Wednesday evening and this
Thursday evening. We learn that the
exercises promise to be very interest
ing.
We imagine that the bloom Of the
magnolia tree must contain a very
sweet language as one of our young
men rode several miles few days ago
in the rain in order to secure bloom
for his lover, and oh, we guess the
young man thought the bloom would
contain 4 summer language"
Miss Lila Werts who has been teach
ing school over in Edgefield during the
past six months has given vacation and
returned to her home in the Mt. Pill
grim community. She seems to take
4 delight in training the young minds
that are committed to her care, and we
learn she has been having an interest
ing school over in Edgefield.
We have for some time been having a
desire to visit the Young Mems Chris
tian Association recently organized at
Mt. Pilgrim church and on learning
that a public meeting was to be held on
Saturday night last and that Rev. c. A.
Marks was to be present and address
the association. We availed ourselves
the opportunity and had the pleasure
of assembling with the association on
this occasion. On our arrival at the
church we found a goodly number
already gathered and at o'clock the
association was opened being conducted
by Mr.. Crayton Dominick, after which
Rev. Marks addressed the association
taking for his subject "your Christian
work' and went on in his address to
show what good could be accomplished
by. these associations, and what help
it was to the church, to the Sunday
shool and to the prayer meetings. Rev.
Marks also showed how the women
and young ladies could be Of some help
to these associations. After Rev Marks
address Mr.. CraytoI Dominick also
followed with a short but appropriate
talk showing in what way everybody
could be of some help to this work, and
especially to the parents; how they
should bring their children up training
them to live a pious Christian life at
home, as we'll as while at the church.
We were informed that this association
now enrolls thirty-one members.
This was our first visit to this asso-
citation and we hope to visit there again
soon. SIGMA.
