CHARITY, TOPIC
At town MEETING


The town meetings have been max
ing good. The January and February
meetings were great successes but
the March meeting promises to be
the most important and best of ALL
said one OF the officials of that organi.
cation today. The musical numbers
that will be rendered will be pleasing
and help to make the evening inter-
esung' There will also be literary
exercises and several speeches.
The question for the evening wifi
be, The Administration Of Our Char
tiles, and 1t will be one that should
prove to be most interesting and
should be heard by ell of the people OF
the city. 1t is a great opportunity
for our charity workers to get a hear
ing as we'll as the people to hear and
express their views on the question
The town meeting club takes
neither side, but it does desire
that just such questions shall get a
hearing that will arouse the public
to enthusiasm. No patriotic citizen
can be Indifferent as to how We shall
administer our charities. We want tn
care for the poor people and ,prevent
poverty. but We want to do this in a
business like and sensible manner

what he pleases in regard to the ma

A card by one of the ladies OF
Edgefeld to the editor Of the Edge
field. Chronicle, published in the
daily papers and reprinted in this
issue Of The Herald and News, is to
the effect that the story Of the
sending Of a bunch of white hya-
cinths, tied with crepe, to Senator
Tillman, 'is positively untrue, so
far as the mothers Of Edgefeld are
concerned.' "If such thing has
been done,' continues the card, "it
came from some irresponsible source;
the unwarranted use Of tie names
of Edgefeld's mothers is serious in
deed. I hope the whole thing is a
mistake.''
The card of Mr.. L. Wigfall
Cheatham, editor Of the Edgefeld
Chronicle, and the correspondent
who sent the story to the daily
papers, follows the card of Mrs.
Duno7ant. Mr.. CheaAham saying
that his, authority for using the
news item was supposed to be good
and reliable, and for this reason he
did not verify it. Mr.. Cheatham
expresses himself as greatly graft
fed that the item was not true.
In view Of the editorial in the
last issue Of The Herald and News
in disapproval Of the sending Of the
flowers and the crepe, we desire to
express our qualification that there
was no foundation for the story, so
far as the "mothers Of Edgefeld' -
are concerned, and to call especial
attention to the cards of Mrs. Dun
ovant and Mr.: Cheatham.

The government officials. have de-
cided that hen is a bird. The tariff
law levies a duty Of five cents a
dozen on hen eggs while bird eggs
are permitted free. Then I suppose
under this interpretation there is no
such thing as a hen that produces
eggs. So far as my use goes they
could have left hen a hen be-
cause I don't intend to eat amy of
those imported eggs whether they
are hen eggs or bird eggs.
There have been great many
deaths in NeWberry recently. To
those who have been bereft Of loved
ones whether in the prime and vigor
Of young life or in the sere and
yellow leaf I etxeud deep and heart
felt sympathy. I have been under
the rod and know what it all means.
We must remember that we can not
sojourn here always and whenever
death comes it is sad. We should so
live that we are ready at amy mo-
ment to pass under, but that does
not mean that we shall go around
with sad and long eountenanees, but
at the same time 50 act to. others as
if we expected to live always. Do
your d {dty faithfully and cheer
fully at all times. What's the use
Of quarreling Ind saying unkind
things. What's the use worrying
about things you can't help. If you
believe the Bible and in an au-Wise
God as taught in the Bible you must
know that all things are for the best
and while We may not understand
now we shall know hereafter. I, Of
ten wonder why people get out of
humor with one another and say
unkind things and put so much
stress on money. The rich and the
poor all meet on a common plane
when they depart and all the mil
lions of earth can't buy one moment
of time nor purchase an atom of
happiness ON the other shore. That
life is the most useful and has the
biggest credit to its account on toe
book Of records that has been Of the
greatest service and has done the
most good, been the most cheerful
and has shed the most sunshine
upon the lives Of others. Don't be
fooled. Long prayers in public and
loud professions unless backed by a
heart Of love and service will avail
but little. The hypocrite will stand
mighty little show when the search
light is turned on.
