We thought the bicycle as a vehi-
Gle of locomotion was obsolescent, but
one pleasant afternoon last week we
noted string of young bicycle rid
ers passing through the streets.
There were probably a dozen or
more in the procession and all ap-
peared to be enjoying the exercise.

Friends of the family were grieved
to hear of the death of Mrs Lula G
Kennedy's infant child. Mrs. Kenne-
dy is the widow Of Mr. Henry E
Kennedy, whose death occurred in
this county less than a year ago.
Since her husbands demise Mrs
Kennedy has made her home at Eu-
lonia, in Marion county, and it was
there that the little one died. The
remains were brought to this county
and laid to rest at Indiantown church
Wednesday afternoon, according to
our information.
Rev w P Meadors has had re-
markable success as presiding elder
of the Kingstree district. 1t was
the first district to pay the mission
claims in full. and it seems that the
charges in this district are practi-
cally exhibiting a clean sheet at each
quarterly conference. Bishop Will
son regards Brother Meadors as one
of the best presiding elders in the
entire connection, and South Car
olina has and has had some good
ones.-S0uthern Christian AdrOcate.
Mr. Roland D Mills took his de-
parture last week for Marion, to
make his future home. Mr. Mills,
who is capable young business
man of character and intelligence,
goes to take a responsible position as
book-keeper for a large wholesale
grocery company. We wish Mr. Mills
success and happiness in his new en-
vironment, albeit we believe he
made a mistake in leaving old Will
liamsb re-, than which no county in
the State affords better opportunities
for ambitious. energetic young men
of ability and good character.
Thanks to our friend, Mr. J G. Ev-
erett of Salters Depot, we've got a
pumpkin, anyway for Thanksgiving.
Possums seem to sleep too high for
US this year and turkey is but a gor-
geous dream of departed glory; but
all JOY and gladness have not faded
as long as there is a vision of crisp,
pies of yellow pumpkin that the frost
has ripened and sweetened until it is
a golden globe of nectar, fit food for
the gods on Mount Olympus -eh,
Brother Bass?
Our streets were fairly crowded
with shoppers Saturday and most of
the merchants did thriving busi-
ness. Probably more men and wo-
men were noted on the streets than
on any day since the fall season
opened, barring of course the day of
of the circus, October %. 1t really
looked as if fair or carnival were in
progress along about midday, so
thronged were the sidewalks with
eager shoppers. That's what we like
to see. You can't come to a better
place to buy or sell than Kingstree.
Our printing office is temporarily
without foreman for the mechanic
al department and it is only through
Mr. Tobias kindness that we are not
left in the lurch this week, his time
