Bird hunting is the order of I

Bird hunting is the order of the day.
Farmers are learning from sad ex-
perlence that all otton is back num-
ber. We have been in different locali-
ties OF this County and find that the
farming class has at last walked up at
the high price of corn and bacon and
more grain and hogs are in fine pros
pect and the country seems to be get
ting In better shape. All of our neigh
bors have from one to five hogs to
kill and plenty OF corn for another year.
The farmers are in q rush to get
through sowing wheat and oats by the
holidays.
We are "tickled to death" with our
mail route. Mr.. A. b. Crisp is our
chief carrier aud 10 always on time. Mr..
Crisp says he would not give his route
for any in the State as 1t is so pleasant
for him to take the rounds every morn
ing. We think that MIR. B. A. Whar-
ton could have said the same thing fif-
teen years ago, so we are glad to know
that Mr.. Crisp is so we'll pleased with
the people of his route.
]. ID. w. Watts, B. A. Wharton and
Jim Wade Hill spent last Saturday and
hunted birds with j, Il. A. Ballew. It
certainly tries the nerve of any man to
kill or claim as many birds as Capt.
Wharton. This is j. Il. A. Ballew's
final notice to all hunters when the
birds and rabbits get in hunting order
that all Of his friends are respectfully
invited to hunt without further notice.
He says when he first remembers see
ing light he saw birds, and after he is
gone to answer the roll call there will
be birds here still.
Mrs. Ballew entertained few friends
last Thursday evening.
Misses Jennie Wallace and Bessie
Wharton are visiting the latter's aunt,
Mrs. Ballew.

last Sunday at Mountville with B. A.

Mr.. II. S. league is improving, but
very slowly we are sorry to say.
Mr.. Edwin Milan will soon have his

much to his place.
Mrs. Notes OF Mountville spent last

presiding over the reading lesson when
the child, whose eturn 1t was to read,
came across the word "hireling."
"What is 'hirelingT" asked the

The question was next propounded to
the entire class, with like result.
The master then explained the mean-

Report of Laurens Daugh-
ters Of COnfederacy.
MUCH GOOD WORK.
Contributions TO Many
Worthy Causes.
Protecting the Memories OF the south.
ern Cause-A Monument In Lau-
rens Is Projected.

The report below of Mrs. James Far
row, president OF the Laurens Chapter,
Daughters of the Confederacy, was
presented at Anderson last week.
Mrs. j. II. Nolan represented the
Chapter at the meeting.
| THE REPORT.
| Our annual report will show plenty
of hard work, some results satisfactory
others though not realized, yet yivified
with hope of consummation. Union
makes our efforts invincible, for an ev-
er ready hearty response meets all de-
mands for the expansion which is so es-
sential for the preservation of our AS
| sociation.
A Thanksgiving Offering to our Vet
Grams. in the County Home, 4S calen-
dars sold for the Davis Memorial fund,
theatrical entertainment to raise
money for our Chapter needs, in addi-
tion to the annual membership dues, a
donation of $4,000 to the Wade Hamp-
ton equestrian statue at the Capital Of
our State, also 5000 to the Davis monu-
to Columbus, Ohio for Memorial Day
there at the unveiling of the Arch to
our dead, erected through the efforts
of Col. Knauss, an ex-Federal officer,
are in the list of labors OF love 80 far
accomplished.
Some of our works not yet consum-
mated, but being planned, are the be-
stowal of the Southern Crosses of Hon
or, contributions to the Confederate
Bazaar to be held next Spring in Rich
mond, Virginia, and the erection of q
monument to the Confederate dead of
our country. Last winter we secured
the granite for the base of this monu-
ment.
Memorial-Day services were held as
usual by the citizens of our town, as
sisted by the Daughters. "a special
feature this year was the singing by
the children OF the public school OF
Dixie and Maryland, My Maryland
Attention is called to the lines begin
ming, 1.-THE despot's heel" of this i'm
mortal song as compared with the per-
verted copy sent out by northern pub
fishing house. Our Confederate graves
are all marked by suitable tablets, thus
preventing confusion at our annual
decoration of flags and flowers.
We have meetings every four or six
weeks, subject to the call Of the Presi-
dent, besides the special observance of
Secession Days, Lees, Jackson's and
Davis birthdays and henceforth Hamp.
toms.

of our Chapter to Daughters Day at
the Charleston Exposition.

EGGS.

An English traveller who has visited
every nation In the world Is authority
for the statement that one food is uni.
versal throughout all countries. "There
is not a part of the world" he says,
where you cannot get an egg" While
In western China, however, he at first
had some difficulty in getting even
eggs. The natives could not understand
him and refused to recognize the pic
lures he drew as pictures of eggs. "The
way-I got out Of the difficulty" he
adds, was that ! squatted down on

ton grasped what wanted, and was
simply provided with hundreds Of
