Cailioun's Vision.

Way back i'll the 30's the Hon. John
{. Calhoun made Il tour ~, horseback
and on foot across the .nn.intains which
separate tennessee from South Caro-
lima. He footed il over Stumphousc
Mountains. Smoky Mountain and
through RabuM Gap, and expressed the
opinion that nature seems to have left
just enough room for Il passage way
for the construction of Il railroad to
bring the products of the growing West
to the tidcwatcr of the South Atlantic.
Some time after this, and largely
through his influence, the Blue Ridge
railroad scheme was inauguratcd Sew
cral millions of dollars were expended
i'll grading and tunnelling, when the
project fell through because of the war
and because the time was not ripe.
The work done stands to-day-a gram
lie monument to the sagncity of the
men OF half Il century ago. The Black
Diamond will utilize the work done by
the fathers. The rich, tcclning West
is about to burst it's way through the
mountains and enrich us with her
manifold products. The God who
fashioned Rabun Gap is the same who
fashioned Port Royal harbor-onc for
the otlYr. Where Calhoun walked the
iron horse will rush along transporting
the coal that will feed the furnaces OF
the world. Calhoun, of course, wis Il
visionary and dreamer The time
may be near ut hand when those who
are benefited will thank God there have
been visionnries and dreamcrs.-

know that you have wondered many
times, Mr.. Editor, what has become ,f
us people up here. and canauswrr il.
We have been at work so hard irwin,
to gather the rotten 4ccnt cotton. that
we almost forgot there was such y
thing as newspaper. Although we
have been quiet. we believe we can
truthiully say that there il, not another
community in Anderson County tho,
can excel this one. taking things all
around as we come to them. Aaron is
situated on the low ridge, lying between
SiX-and-1'wcnty Creek and the two
Bcavcrtlam Greeks, or. as known bv
SOM, Rocky River. and whose gentle
slopes are covered hv The sl,ow-whitr
fields of cotton, intcrspcrSrd altcrnatc
ly with the brow looking fields of
golden corn, which. ere long. will be-
gathered into the many large garnrrs
which are awaiting their reception
with pleasure. The farmers of our
little community are in easy reach of
five stationary gins by which they may
nave their cotton Sinncd. They are as
follows: McSsrs. Watson & Son are
running two gins, one IL steam and the
othcr watcr-p0wcr gin. the latter of
which is situated on the same SpDt
known as the "Old Watson Mill Place"
MIR. ID. Is. McPhnil is running II very
successful gin near the old Rush stand.
McsSrs. Newell and Neal are also run
ming gins ut their respective places of
business. and in addition to this Mr..
"Jep' Dalrymplc, of Scptus. is kept
quite busy with his travelling gin. So,
Mr. Editor, yon see we raise lots of cot
ton. We are situated near the center
OF Il section of country bounded by
four Chnrchcs-each different de-
nominatiOn-with good school house
at each.
Mr.. Major Jones, of Bolton, accom-
panied by his sister, Miss CnIlic, paid
lis Il flying call last Sunday afternoon.
Major is going to take the place of MIR.
j. II. Leach in the blacksmith and
wood shop Of this place. Miss Cullic
has an unusually pleasant smile on her
face. and it may be that she is going to
get married. II it is trYc we can say
that he who is sn lucky" as To get her.
will certainly get II wife worth having.
Major says that now as he has got
back "Thcrc will he hot times in the
Old Town now"
Mrs. Mollie Mcdonnell, of MOilntts-
vile, has been visiting relatives in this
community. Her health has been
greatly improved while she has been
i'll our midst. She was accompanied
by two of her children.
Mr.. j. B. Gentry made flying trip
to Fort Hill last Saturday.
Our soldier boys returned to Coum-
bia last Friday to be there at the roll
call. We hope they will lie mustered
out and allowed to return home, for we
miss them very much.
