HOME TRUST COMPANY
RAPIDLY ORGANIZING
New Enterprise Will BE Formally Or
ganizcd About March 1st.. Stock
Selling at Lively Rate.

Two weeks ago The Advertiser CON
tanned notice concerning the organ
iZation of the Home Trust Company,
the petitioners having secured a COM
mission to sell stock. The books of
the company, with offices at the Enter
prise bank, have been open for some
days and a considerable portion o. the
stock subscribed for. The final organ.
iZation of the company will be perfect
ed about March LIST.
The impression was received by a
number of people that the books
would close yesterday, the 18th. of
February; this, however was mcor-
rect, for the books will be open the
remainder of this month And be-
cause the petitioners for the commits
sion were directors of the Enterprise
bank, the impression was that only
stockholders of that bank were to take
up the stock of the new company. This
is not by any means the case for a
number of farmers of the county have
already subscribed for stock.
In speaking of the new company.
MIR. c. III. Roper, one of the organizers.
Salu that the new trust company would
carry on a general loan business ON
real estate and act as executors. i'm
accordance with the usual business of
trust companies, and that while the
Enterprise bank would continue the
loan business, it was hoped TO make
mat specially for the new COMPANY.
DO You know said MIR. Ropcr.
that Laurcns county is just now com
ing into its own, particularly in the
banking business? Just a few years
ago the biggest farmers did all their
business in Greenville and Newberry
they see now that to do business in
their own county is a source of wealth
to themselves. Why pay interest on
loans secured in another county? WHY
not nave the farmers of this county
benefited by their own business? The
work of trust company works bone
fit to the home people"
The stock of the Home Trust com
panY is being sold at $50 per share the
capital stock is $5O,O0O. AS soon as
30 per cent OF this amount is subscrib-
ed and 20 per cent paid in. the com
pany Will secure its charter ana be
ready for business. As stated. il is

Description OF New Church.
The new church, so happily entered,
is indeed one to be proud of. Ideally
situated at the intersection of Broad
street the principal street i'm Clinton,
with Centennial street which bids fair
to develop into beautiful street when it
shall have been open to the village
of Lydia; within two blocks OF the
heart of the town; opposite the lovely
Thornwell orphanage; easy OF access
from all parts OF town. Had the con-
gregation chosen from all Clinton no
more desirable situation could have
been found. 1t stands on the site of
the old church. which was torn away
to make room for it.
1t is built Of brick with cement and
granite trimmings. There are four en-
frances, two on Broad and two on Cen
tennial streets. A private entrance
leads from the rear to the pastors
study.
The corner rises to a belfry where
hangs the same bell that rang from the
old church steeple.
The Interior.
Ones first impression on entering
the church is of its richness. A dim
religious light falls through stained
glass windows over mahogony- finished

case, when the enthusiasm of actual
building had seized the people they
enlarged their plans i'm several partic-
nlars. and the building equipment and
all. has cost about $t7 600 II is splcn-
didly equipped, has furnace heat. stain
