wait to copy the letters Mabel was
taking down. but he had a new issue
of "The Young Pioneers" and delay
did not worry him
For an hour or so the outer office was
quiet, the stiffness broken only by the
scratching of Carriers pen and the in
distinct monotone of PAGES voice as he
dictated steadily. Then with a crash
the door was thrown open and Freder-
lex Brace burst in
Bobby sprang mp in surprise. Brace
was a broken down operator-a ghost"

The incident seemed to fan Braces

stole from me. They tell me you broke

papers are full of it," He drew out an
extra of one of the afternoon papers
and waved it in front of Pace.

STATUE OF CALHOUN.
A Proposal from the D. A. r. al forkyilie.
State Should be Represented

Yorkville, January l7.-To the Editors
Keowee Courier: We, the undersigned,
representing the Kings Mounta Chap
ter ID. A. r., Yorkville, s. c., wish to
call your attention aud that of your
readers to work which we have inaugu-
rated, and in which we beg your cordial
help and cooperation. 1t has long been
n source of regret and modification that
South Carolina has no representation in
the National Statuary Hall of the
Capitol at Washington. "This Statuary
Room was the old Hall of Representa-
tives. 1t was the scene of the debates of
Webster, Clay, Adams and Calhoun and
others, whose names are indellibly as
sociated with the history of Congress.
In 1864, at the suggestion of Senator
Morrill,, of Vermont, the room was set
apart as National Statuary Hall to
which each State might send the effigies
of two of her chosen sons in marble or
bronze to be placed permanently here"
No South Carolinian ever views those
stately statues, erected by practically all
the States of the Union, in memory of
their chosen sons, without wondering
why our place has been so long empty,
and wishing that we, too, could point
with pride to a representative occupying
the place allotted TO South Carolina.
The Kings Mountain Chapter is desirous
of starting movement to remedy this
long standing neglect. We have written
to every wOman's organization in the
State asking them to join us in petition
ing the Legislature to appropriate at this
present session the sum of twenty five
thousand dollars (S25, ,OO0) for the pur-
pose of erecting statue of John G. Cal,
houn in the National Statuary Hall in
the Capitol at Washington. We regard
Calhoun as South Cardinals most repre-
sentative man. He was for forty years
the most conspicuous and influential
figure in national politics. He was Rep
resentative, Senator, Secretary of War,
Secretary of State and Vice President
We do hope that you will give ns your
support and help in this work. We wish,
through your paper, to appeal to every
South Carolina man and woman to honor
this draft upon your patriotism, and beg
them to respond to the effort we are
making to have our beloved State take
her rightful place in the Hall of the
Nation.
We shall be exceedingly obliged if you
will give this letter a place in the col
umns Of your paper.
Very respectfully yours,
Mrs. Virginia Mason Bratton,
Miss Maggie A. Gist,
Miss Leslie d. Witberspoon,
Mrs. S. Nj. McNeel,

Items from Fruitland.

Fruitland, n. c., January 20.-Editors
Courier: will try to give you and your
readers sketch of how we look and
live at Fruitland.
We are in very mountainous section,
known as the "Sky Land" These noun
tains are very pretty in the summer, but
now they are covered with snow much
of the time. There are some beautiful
waterfalls on the side of one of the
mountains which can be seen from our
school. There are about 32 girl students
and 80 young men students at the dor
mitories. Rev. r. III. Posey, one of the
principals, is native of dear old South
Carolina. Our lady principal is Miss
Martha Sallenger, from Mexico, NO., and
is a most consecrated Christian. A
good portion of the students here are
from South Carolina and some from
Kentucky. Our dormitory is close to the
church. Rev. f.. Allison is our pastor.
There are about $50 pupils in the ad-
vanced department and large number
in tho primary department.
If any of the boys and girls in South
Carolina want to attend a school where
there is much Christian influence, pleas
ant surroundings, ETC., at very little ex-
pense, come to Fruitland.
