MRS. e. B. ROOF.

Mrs. E. B. Roof, head of the Music
Department, came from a family of
musicians and grew up in musical at
mosphere. She was assis tant to her
mother before taking charge of class
of her own. She has taught for %
years in Lexington, and for - consec-
utive terms has been in charge of the
music department in the institute.
This department has grown and is
stin growing. During the last session
Mrs. Roof had 21 pupils under her
care. She has been repeatedly re-
leoted, which is ample proof of her
very efficient work.
MISS LUCILLE EFTRD.
Miss Lucille Efrd, teacher of express
sion, is graduate of the College for
Wemen, Columbia, and is young
woman of many brilliant attainments.
She has taught for two years in the
institute and her work has given uni
versal satisfaction. Her department
is fast becoming one of the most i'm.
portant in the school and is growing
in numbers. The class in expression
last session numbered 26.
The school, in all its departments,
is; in very fourishing condition.
Thorough and faithful work is done
both by the teachers and by the stu
dents. The enrolment has increased
about one-third of itself during the
past two years. The students show a
very marked improvement in doing
their part to aid good order and pro-
.ficient work Of the school. The trus-
tees are ever on the lookout for the
best interest of the school. The par
euts heartily support the school and
cooperate in the management of the
school. Other portions of the county
have given liberal support.
The tenth grade has been added to
fully prepare our boys and girls either
for a successful college course or for
the duties of active life. The prepar-
alton can be had here at home at a
very small cost compared with getting
l. at some distant place.
We feel that all of Lexington is
proud of the measure of success at.
tanned by her school. In word, the
future is bright and promising.

Another seheol Middle.

A committee consisting of Messrs. 6.
NJ. Adams, H. D. Lowman. Franklin
Hallman, Andrew Shealy, Jeter Boat
wright, and Samuel Shealy, represent
ing school district No. 10, Of Chinequs i.
pin township, called on County Super
intendent of Education A. D. Martin,
on Monday, to lay before that gentle
man rather peculiar and somewhat
interesting school muddle.
About four years ago it appears that
the district voted four-mill tax levy
for the purpose of improving the
school building. Now the majority of
the freeholders in the district want
the tax revoked, and they assert that
they have repeatedly presented peti-
tions, signed by the regular required
number Of voters, for an election to
decide the matter, and that no atten-
tion has been paid to their request.
They claim that petition was sent
to the county board, more than a year
ago, through Mr.. j. E. R. Kyzer, the
then county superintendent, for an
election, but no attention was given
the matter. Now, it seems, that a
move is on foot to have the building
moved from its present location to
another point, and the committee was
looking after this also. One of the
gentlemen stated that the matter
would be fought out in the courts be-
fore the majority would submit to the
building being moved from its present
location.
Mr.. Martin assured the committee
that he would call a special meeting
of the county board to consider the
matter and would do all in his power
to give the relief demanded. 1t IS
hoped that an amicable agreement
will be reached.

Weds Man She Had Wronred.

Jacksonville, Ind, May 29.-Just 20
years from the day that she sent Lige
Fielden, her sweetheart, to the pen be-
cause she believed he had stolen her
ring, Miss Mollie Lienkeart will be mar
ried to the man whose innocence was
only recently established. The date of
the weddingis June 20. From the day
Fielden was sentenced no word passed
between him and Miss Lienkeart until
a week ago, when Joshua Bowels, a
farmer living OH the place that had
formerly been occupied by the Lien
keart family, found in a dried-up spring
the missing ring where Miss Lienkeart
herself had lost it. Overwhelmed by
remorse at the injury she had done,
Miss Lienkeart, who had not married
in the meantime held a reception in
honor last week and today announce
meat was made of the coming marriage
of the couple.

REGISTRATION ron
AUGUST EiEC TON.

There will be two opportunities for
the voters to register for the election
on prohibition, which is to be held In
this State on the third Tuesday in
August. OF course voters who are
now registered are not required to re-
gister anew, but those who have re-
Gently come of age, moved into the
State or who have changed. their resi-
dence from one polling place to an
other, or who for any other reason are
not now registered, will be compelled
to secure new registration certificates.
And it will be we'll for any and every
votor to make sure that he has his
registration certificate before it is too
late to secure one.
Under the law the boards of regis
tration must open the books the first
Monday in every month, for three
days, but the books are closed 80 days
before any general or special election.
This leaves two opportunities for the
registration of voters, the first Mon
day in June and the first Menday in
July, before the dispensary election
in August.
PROHIBITION FOR TWO WEEKS.
The general assembly at its recent
session passed State prohibition law
which goes into effect on the first
Tuesday of August, in every county
in the State, and every dispensary in
South Carolina will b. closed on that
day. 1t is then provided by this act
that on the third Tuesday in August,
the 18th, there shall be held an elec-
ton in every county now having dis
pensaries, and if the election results
in majority for the sale, of whissey
the dispensaries in that county shall
be reopened as before, but if there is
majority iii any county for rrohibl-
ton the Giispensaries in that county
shall be closed. The effect Of this is
to give absolute prohibition in every
county in South Carolina for the two
weeks in August between the first and
third Tuesdays. The sections Of the
act relating to this matter are as fol-
lows:
TIE ACT OF 1909.
Sec. IL. This act shall take effect
on the first Tuesday in August, 1909:
Provided, that in the counties then

Gated therein shall be reopened, and
such election in each of said counties
shall be held and conducted by the
same officers and under the same rules
and regulations provided by law for
general elections.

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD
OF A DISSATISFIED VELIE OWNER?

No! 1t stands to reason, therefore,
that the car is mechanically right. Built
by manufacturers who know how and
who have the reputation and ability t
stand behind their products. The bus
mess of the Velie Motor Vehicle Co.,
Velie Carriage Co., and John Deere
Plow Co., has been built up on merit
and on that ground we solicit your
attention and patronage.

It proved that the Rainier car can stand
the pace without injury, and that is worth
much to the Rainier people. The Stearns
did well also, as It's amateur driver took
two firsts and two seconds.
The Fiat was placed thirteen lines in
the thirty-two races, scoring nine firsts,
one second. and one third. OF course
the Fiat, like other cars, was only eligi-
BILE for certain races. The Marmon scored
eleven times, with four first, four sec
onds. and three thirds. The Marmon
had two drivers, so did the Flat. The
Chalmers scored t~wenty-three times, the
largest In number Of any make OF car, with
two drivers. 1t got five firsts, eleven
seconds and seven thirds. The Buick
with three drivers, scored seven times,
four firsts. one second, and two thirds.
The National, with two drivers, but with
the burden almost entirely on the
shoulders OF Aiken, won eleven places,
four f~irsts, five seconds. and two thirds.
Aiken won all places with the exception OF
one, which was the best Individual score
OF the meet. The Benz got one first and
three seconds. Steoker taking the first,
and Oldfield the three seconds. The Ap-
person, with one driver, got one first
and three thirds, and the Rainier, with
one driver, two firsts and one second.

REDEEMING POSTAGE STAMPS

stamp that had been offered to him.

cent stamp with that; it's against the
rules"
The man who had rendered The stamp
looked disappointed, but went away with
out a word, and the clerk turned 10 a
friend who had been ~lounging near the
window.
You'd be surprised 10 know" he said,
how many people try to cash In stamps
here. Some want me to buy them back
az their face value, others want stamps
OF a lower denomination, like that fellow.
But I've never had a man ask me for two
5-cent stamps for a ten, or two twos and
a few cents In actual money"
That's queer" said the friend. Can
you explain it?'
They're broke" answered the clerk;
down and out, you understand. They
dig up some old postage stamps they've
been carrying in their pockets for weeks
perhaps and try to raise enough oSzhem
TO buy a frankfurter and roll or a loaf
