1t will once more be Washington's
birthday next Monday, and again will
the children hear OF that hatchet-and
cherry-tree incident. These mother
goose jewels should be frightened up
for the little ones.
An important event for Newberry

Pair & Havird is pretty good for an
oversight. But if you read their new

line. They have pair upon pair OF nice
things there.
Miss Pearl Gideon, the efficient and
accomplished stenographer in the Of
hce OF Hunt, Hunt & Hunter, in the
absence OF Court Stenographer Motto
acted as court stenographer in the
case OF Ki0ler against the Southern
Railway Co. giving entire satisfaction.
The many friends OF Mr.. Ed. Y.
Morris are glad to see him out again

the ground hog he tried to come out

weather.
Rev. ". S. Holmes will make his
last visitation to St. Luke's Episcopal
church on Sunday next. Services II

faithful rector in this ccnsecrated

That Baltimore clerk who says he
can talk at the rate of hfty-hve thous-
and words an hour ought to come

I'D with him for awhile.
We try to read our exchanges care
fully and cheerfully, but sometimes
we are stumbled by their "rhodom-
tade and thrasonical bombast. we
wish they all would eschew their con-
elomeration of hatulent garullty,
ieiune babblement and asinlne attec-
tation." It would be much better II
they could let their "extemporaneous
descanting and unprecedented eN-
plantations have intelligibility." 1t is
far easier to read the war news. This
| is referred to the pupils Of the Helena
school, who have just had some big
words to tackle.

fair representatives of the federation
Of wonea's clubs. We regret that all

the club women of the town are IN
vi,ed to meet the visiting ladies at a
very informal reception at the Mar
