VIII be remembered that the de

and that Mr.. A. r. Banks wrote
the chapter on education. The
1905 edition is up-to-date on
statistics, showing Calhoun coun-

the Jamestown exhibit. The
book IS worth $5 right now. 1t
has chapter on nearly every
phase. 1t will be helpful 10 the
farmer or any class of men. Il
Is taught III some schools and
colleges as a text book. 1t is a
very interesting book and should
be In every school and pnblic
library in South Carolina. Worth
so now and will be worth $25 in
later years. Do you want one,
Mr.. Editor, or lellow-reader? :?
1t costs only twenty-five cents.
1t really costs nothing but the
quarter pays postage. 1t should
be in every home in Lancaster
county. Why not get one?
Write Col. +. j. Watson and he
will send it.

Lancaster News is once more in

the city schools of old Lancaster
will again have thrown it's doors
open to the children of Lancaster
and vicinity. My! we'll miss the
ringing of "the bell that hangs

ing our friends, for school is a
reunion of children and teachers
and there is social feature as
well as "teachin' and larnin'
feature. We are sorry not to
be In the school again, and we
wish the schools of the grand old
city, Lancaster, much prosperity
-and here's suggestion now
"lest we forget" Why not have
an alumni and alumnae meeting
next commencement. Let all
members whether graduates or
"quituates" get together and or
ganize. If deemed best we NAV
get together Christmas or at
some time before commencement
and then we can be ready for
work commencement to have a
programme. OF course there
will be some defects but it's
worth investigating. Let's hear
from trustees, teachers and alum.
nj and, OF course, from the fair
alumnae.
BY the time The News is out
again the second bout will be
over and the candidates will be
rejoicing or mourning. Well
wait patiently till that time but
here's hoping that it will not be
so sad as the first primary was,
that Jupiter Pluvius, Esq, will
not weep so bitterly.

opens Tuesday, although there
was play there on the 25th OF

seems to be some complaint on

John the Baptist. 1t is exciting
interest everywhere and because
OF this fact and because it is at
tackled by some of the leading
actors and actresses and by the
newspapers, it is thought that
many people will go TO see it.
But we won't, so don't worry.
1t is said TO be vulgar, etc. It's
