Since farmers are pretty well through
with laying by their crops, their socia-
bility begins to assert itself. The after
noon of last Thursday was spent very
pleasantly by those present at Mr.. s. L..
Eskew's. with music and eating water
melons. Mr.. Richard Lewis, Oconee's
courteous and efficient Probate Judge,
and Mr.. Charlie Reid, from Walhalla,
regaled the crowd with some fine music
on yiolins, while Miss Matte Eskew
PLAYED an accompaniment ON the organ.
The watermelons, as well as the music,
were excellent, and greatly enjoyed by all
On Friday quite crowd of children,
chaperoned by their parents and friends,
had pic mic at Jolley's spring, which
seemed to be enjoyed by all present.
Some of the 'old folks" were about as
big children as any.
The pic mic announced last week to be
at Jolley's spring Saturday, 9TH inst, was
quite pleasant one. Early Saturday
morning the crowd began coming in on
horseback, in buggies, in carriages and
walking, and by noon large assem- Dlage
were present. Shortly afterwards dinner
was announced, and hungry humanity
feasted to its fill on the choicest vlands.
In the afternoon the older people gather.
ed in groups and talked of the days Of
ssAuld Lang syne," while the young
folks ''paired off," as Bill Arp would say,
and the still younger ones padded in the
branch and enjoyed themselves as only
children can.
a striking case of Observation-Disclosures
came to light recently. A young gentle.
man and his best girl were walking home
from q neighbor's house one Sunday
afternoon, when heavy shower of rain
came up, and they both got wet. 1t is
claimed that this young man had good
umbrella with him, but forgot to use It,.

The health of this community is very
good. We hear of only one case of sick
ness-Miss Mamie Robinson is very low
with fever. but we hope she vii! soon be
up again, as she is a general favorite in this
community.
Crops are looking better since the last
rain, though they are not as good as IN
other sections.
The pic mic at Clinkscales' Mill was, as
usual, a grand success. Added to that
were some able speeches from nearly all OF
the candidates. They are all nice men,
and it is pity that some OF them will get
left on the 10th. Oh, that there were more
offices for the boys.
Mr.. Thomas Pruitt brought the remains
of his brother, William, from Yazoo, Miss,
on last Sunday. We hope he will remain

The members of Mt. Bethel Church are
having the Church painted, which adds
greatly to its appearance.
We were at MIR. James a. brakes few
days since, and have never seen spch q
display of fruit, especially grapes. 1t
would make an Editor sick to be there one
hour, with Mrs. and the Misses Drake to
encourage him to eat grapes and drink
cider.
Reyivals are being held at several of the

!; Our visit to HartwelI.

Last Saturday, in company With Mr.. H.
a. Wilcox, Of Greenyille, We crossed the
Savannah and spent Sunday in attendance
upon the Hattwell, Ga, Camp Meeting:
We,had yissted the beautiful town Of Hart
well three or four years ago during the
Camp Meeting, and we had not forgotten
the pleasures Of that trip. Our visit this
time was equally as pleasant, and perhaps
more so, for we met many old friends and
found the acquaintance of many new ones.
The Camp Ground is situated about three
miles west of the town, and is a beautiful
place. It was located about fifteen years
ago, and the meetings are always largely
attended by the people from not only Hart
County. but also from all the surrounding
counties. The meeting usually continues
for week, four services being held each
day. The people lay aside all business
cares and go there and spend the week wor-
shipping God, and the meetings are always
productive of much good. On Sunday the
crowd in attendance was immense. and it
was the most orderly and best behaved
crowd we have ever seen gathered together.
Four able and effective sermons were
preached during the day, and close atten.
ton vas paid by the crowd.
The people Of that section can't be ex-
celled in'the United States for genuine hos
'pitality and kindness, and it does stran-
/ ger good to mingle with them. OF course,
we put in a good portion of our time with
the young ladies, large number of whom
we met. They are as courteous and socia-
bic as they are pretty and amiable, and
We don't blame friend Wilcox, or any other
Carolina boy, from falling in love with
chem. Elberton, Bowman. Athens and
other towns were represented at the meet
ing by some of their fairest bellies.
During our visit.we had the pleasure OF
meeting and converting with Hon. John
B. Benson, one of Hartwell's most pro-
gressive and energetic citizens. Mr.. Ben
son is a native of Anderson, but for the
past thirty,fve years has been citizen OF
Hartwell. Despite his age, he is as lively
and vigorous as ever, and his mind is
stored with many pleasant and interesting
incidents that happened in our County
years ago. When he shall have passed
away, Hartvell will never get another cit
izen who can I'LL his place.
Editor McGill, of the Hartwell Sun, is as
bright and cheerful as ever. Time deals
gently with him. He was always hand
some fellow, but as he grows older he gets
better looking. Hartwell could not well
get along without him.

The Municipal Primary.

In accordance with the recommenda-
tions of the local Executive Committees OF
the two city Democratic Clubs, aprimary
election to nominate q Mayor and six
Aldermen was held last Monday. The
Executive Committees recommended the
majority plan for selecting the candidates,
but there was some opposition to this plan,
and the Climbs decided upon the plurality
plan. Last week it was the general opin-
ion that the election would cause some ex-
citement and lively contest, but such was
not the case. Everything passed off quiz
etly, and stranger in the city would not
have known that an election was being
held, unless told of it. There was no
big interest manifested in it, as is shown
by the vote, there being only 1S1 votes
cast.
There was no opposition to MI. J. L.
Tribble for Mayor, and he received all but
nine of the votes cast.
