cemetery on Sunday. 1t being an
ideal day for travelling, there was
a large crowd present. Members Of
our camp, together with others from
various camps, gathered at the
school house and marched to the
cemetery and there they formed in
wedge shape around the grave. In
side the wedge were the relatives of
the deceased and those who took
part in the ceremony. Nearer my
God to Thee" was sung in soft and
touching tones by Miss Weinona
Strom, and "Oh why should the
spirit of mortal be proudm was re-
cited in an admirable manner by
Miss Sallie Smith. The usual dedica-
tory ceremony, was gone through
with and the crowd marched into
the church. After the song Jesus
lover of my soul' was sung and
prayer offered, the address was de-
livered by Rev. J. T. Littleiohn.
In the address he brought out
clearly and forcably many of the
great principles and objects of
Woodcraft. Some which he stated
were; to make better men out of
each member; care for the sick and
unfortunate; aid those left behind
by the. death of those upon whom
they depended. And he dwelt for
some time upon its object of giving
an honorable burial to its deceased
sovereigns.
There were about one hundred
sovereigns present, showing that
there is a large number in our coun-
ty, and bringing forth the thought
that if the w. o. WIS. wedge and
all was used with all its power to
sever the good from the evil and
destroy the strongholds of satan
in our county that great would be
the results thereof.
We have here about, if not quite,
the strongest camp and best lodge
hall in the county and it is still
growing.
Our pastor and his wife appre-
ciate very much the kindness shown
them by the Rehoboth women by
giving them handsome quilt made
by their loving hands.
Mr.. Ed Holmes has commenced
to move his belongings into our
community and will bring his fami-
ly soon. We give them cordial
welcome.
Mr.. West Wood is going over
into Saluda to get himself wife.
Will say more about itlater.
Mrs. Henry Bussey is visiting

Some of Red Hills strong and
enthusiastic young men, together
with our pastor, gathered at the
church onSlast Saturday with horses,
plows, hoes, shovels and other tools
and prepared the grounds for flow.
ers of different kinds and grass.

To the kind words said about The
Advertiser by DR.. Bell in his arti,
Gle last week, / would like to. say,
amen, and add God speed the day
when we will have more Christian
men controlling our papers, leading
in politics, and training the chill.

Numerous petitions are being

schools, counters, desks and plow
handles, who will gladden. the hearts
of the Red Hill people.
