vored the bill The bar appointed Col.

tion. Col. Irby went to Columbia Sat.

At the invitation of the Wednesday

to a large and cultivated audience at
the knights of Pythias Hall on Sat

as she figures in the history of the
world and OF her sphere in the activi-
ties OF the present day. The lecture

He paid beautiful tribute to the
waiting, suffering women of the South
during the war for Southern inde.
pendence and eloquently pictured the
n"OIe work oi women teachers in mold
women.aS missionaries in disseminating
the Christian gospel in the lands Of
heathen darkness. DIR. Montague's
lecture was very generally praised nv
all who had the pleasure of hearinS
him. DR.. Montague occupied the pui.
pit OF the Baptist church, both at the
morning and evening services on Sun
day. At the morning service he lee.
tured to large audience on the sub
'Pct OF Christian education, speaking
with great iluency and strength on
the advantages which would follow 10
our land and government If the relie-
lous as well as intel ectual training OF
the youth oil the country were more
universal.
AT the close of the morning service the
pastor, Rev. j. d. Pitts, announced
that the Baptist church, the beautiful
cdifice erected by the Baptist de-

The Furniture Factory Soon TO be
Built.

THE ADVERTISER has been inves-
tlgatlng to some extent the possibili-
ties Of the successful establishment of
furniture factory in this neighbor-
hood. The Information is gathered
that in the town of High Point, North
Carolina, there are over twenty Of
these factories in successful operation.
Furniture is manufactured on large
scale at TocOa and Rome Georgia :
tory has large quantities Of oak, pop
lar and other valuable woods.
The city of Laurens is as closely To-
Gated with reference to the great lum-
Der regions of North Carolina as is
High Point and equally favorable
freight rates can be secured. There is
10 furniture factory for this part of
South Carolina and our city is sur
rounded with prosperous towns by the
score which each year buy an enor-
nous quantity Of furniture Our un-
derstanding is that a furniture factory
is at no expense for fuel. the refuse
material from the saws and planes fur
nishing an ample quantity. 1t is stated
that company with capital Of about
$50, 900 90 is to be formed. 1t would be
an easy matter for business men to in
vestigate for themselves whether or not
it would pay. Such towns as High
Point and Toccoa are situated pre-
cisely as Laurens is with regard to the
raw materials and freights. 1t would
pay some OF our business men to visit
High Point and examine the condi-
tions. n it were found after careful
enquiry that thirty thousand dollar
factory would probably pay, the con-
clusion is necessary one that q hun
dred thousand dollar factory, with
relatively smaller fixed charges, would
, pay great deal better. THE ADvER-
,HTISER does not believe that any busi-
mess man will or ought to interest him
self financially in such an enterprise
, until he knows thoroughly what he is
doing, but it does seem to us that Lau-
,rens is wonderfully well located for the
'uccessful establishment Of such an en-
erprise if furniture can be manu-
ictured at profit in the South If
Nrniture manufacturing will pay in
these parts, it is certain that very soon
1t will be undertaken by progressive
business men in this part Of South Caro-
lima. Ii there is anything in it, and in
our judgment there is, Laurens ought
to take the start and supply the furni-
ture for the rapidly increasing popu-
lation. of the up-country.
