Some Random Thoughts.

The County Union meeting Friday
was We'll attended every local hav-
ing full delegation, and there was
quite a crowd of visitors. We We're
disappointed in not having any Of
the invited speakers, all having writ
ten regrets at not being able to come
by reason Of previous Engagements.
1t was decided to try to raise mon
ey for two scholarships-one at Glenn
son and one at Winthrop-for the
boy and girl who can win them on
examination, open to the county out
side of the city of Sumter. Mrs. III.
w. Beall who originated the plan has
already secured pledges am ounting to
to $47.O0 and Mr.. l.. /. Parrott pledg-
Ell TO raise $500. Messrs w. E..
Kolb. w. L. Brunson. Tom Dennis
and Hugh Witherspoon were appoint
ed to secure the pledges for balance of
the scholarships. In Difference to
the wishes IF Mrs. Beall, it was
agreed to call them the Farmers
Union scholarships"
The county lecturer made a very
good speech at the open air meeting,
urging the union to work for better
rural schools, schools that will train
boys and girls in the practical matters
Of home-building and home keeping;
not leaving out the essential RS,
but giving less attention to music and
art and the higher culture. so-called.
