over In Salutiu.

aud down into Saluds last Saturday.
Thanks TO the Southern for giving us
II morning train to tho 0p country we
can go and spend tho day and return
tho same day and hc away from homo
only ono day. In other words if you
desire to go anywhere you do not have
to start tho day before in order to get
there on timc. Now we can go almost
anywhere from Ncwbcrry to Grccn-
vile, spend the day, and return homo
the samc afternoon. If this train could
start from Columbia wo could have the
Ccnm-in morning papers for brcalt
fast and with the afternoon train on
paper for the evening.
But wo started out to say something
OF our trip and not to write entirely Of
the railroads. Tho occasion was Chill
drcn's Day ut Iraywick Chapel Meth.
oiist Church, just across tho line in Sa-
luda County. President Geo. i. Gro
NOR, of Ncwhcrry College, had been III
vitcd to make II speech and VIC went
with him. IL was not entirely to 90 to
Childrcn's Day that wo went but to pay
Il visit to the old home and to see the
folks there that Induced us to 90 and
not only SO but an opportunity was Civ
en- to meet Il lot OF friends of former
days that we had not seen in II good
many years.
Thcrc WAS IN the party from Now
l,,,,, lao
was going mp to make ~ speech We
had written our mother We would bc
up for breakfast and we had such IL
hrcakfast all ready when we arrived as
only the good housewives OF the coun-
try know how to prepare, and it was
greatly chi njoycd. 1t is II genuine pleas
nrc for ms to get back to the old home
and meet the friends and roam among
the scenes Of other days. Many chang
cs have taken place since those days
hut there arc still some familiar faces
and they always give us such II warm
and hearty greeting it is no wonder We
love TO go among them.
MIR. w. IL. IOulwarc is the Supcrin-
tondcnL Of the Sunday school at Fray
wick Chapnl The pastor w;ts not pres
cnt hut the exercises went along just
the same. The forenoon was taken up
with rcci'aLiOns and songs by the chill
drrn and members of the school. They
did wcll-tll of them. We could not
make special mention iG we wanted to.
We were pleased with the entire pro-
gram, and while there were twenty. one
rrcittjions. besides the songs, the
morning hour soon passed away. They
reflected credit upon the supcrin;un-
dent and those who trained them and
upon themselves as we'll.
Nn intrrniSSion for dinner wilH taken
and MIR. I'oulwarc said they would have
;ln Old fashion Methodist dinner We
do not know about that, but wr have
been to Methodist, baptist and luthcr-
an gatherings in that section and the
dinners were always about the same
and abundant. This was no exception
and whilr Mir. Crumcr made it clear
that there WAS something in Il name we
do not think IL matters much what
name YOU give the dinner. IL was
there in abundancr
In the afternoon addresses were made
by Mcssrs. Sample aud McI.rcs, OF
Greenwood, and Prof. Cromcraud Rev.
}. w. Spcakc, Of Ncwbcrry.
Altogether it was II pleasant day. We
returned to Ncwhcrry the same night
and President Cromcr, who was not
| feeling well when he left, said he felt
! much better after the work OF the day.
Whether it. was the speeches he heard
| or the things he ate We do not know,
| nor does it, matter, the facl is the trip
improved him.
The candidates were there in force
| as they always are ut Sunday school
! meetings, barbccucs, or what nuts
They arc good SCH of fellows and we
hope they may Ill be elected.
We hope to make another visit to
| this section in August and spend more
tn; II one day.
