THE WOMEN'S MISS.
1ONARY JUBILEE.

The tift;eth anniversary of We
mans Organized Work for Foreign
Missions will be celebrated in Char
lesion, S. c., October II and lS.
1911.
Fifty years ago in the parlor of
Mrs. T. {. Doremus in New Xork,
where was organized the first wo-
mans missionary society to receive
charter, the great missionary
movement was begun. Since then
the work has grown steadily year by
year. In 1910. under the influence
OF the wonderful book, Western
Women in Eastern Lands" Mrs.
Henry w. Peabody, chairman of
the Central Committee on United
Study, conceived the idea OF a cele-
bration which should stretch from
shore to shore and recount Gods

If there is ANYTHING irregular with
the recent election for bond issue
for new school building, the trus-
tees should take immediate steps to
have the errors corrected. If neces-
sary they should order another cleo
ton. and see to it that everything
necessary is legally and properly
done. There is no two sides to the
question. We have got to have a
school building, and we can not get
it except by voting bonds for the
necessary amount. There ought
not to be any opposition to it, but if
there is the good people of the dis
trict should get together and see
that the election is carried. We
must go forward.

the public good.

the public GOOD.
A case to illustrate: The county
treasurer had a small deposit in each
of the ten banks of the county. true
"a very insufficient deposit compared
to what would be just and proper.
On the first of July every dollar of
these balances were checked out of
these banks in favor of a Lexington
bank when the treasurer's report
showed large cash balance on hand.
his tax money is paid into the
treasury by the different sections of
the county and so long as this mon
ey is kept in bank it is nothing more
than right and just that it should be
deposited in the banks serving the
community paying it in. so that it
can be loaned back to the same far
mers to make a new crop. Do you
wonder at the new county talk. AS
for us we are opposed to new coun-
ty but we are in favor of square
deal.
We repres mt the Leesv ille- Bates
burg section. We are not boasting
but stating a self-evident we'll known
fact when we say this is the richest
and most populous section of the
county. We have two of the larges,
towns in the county. Two railroads.
a network of telephone and tele.
graph wires and thousands of acres
OF the most valuable farms in the
State. AS a natural consequence
we pay large part of the taxes oi
the county. Are we getting jus,
return for our money! We have
two good schools but we have votec
many thousand dollars of bonds ano
pay 8 mills special school tax. We
have many miles of beautiful sand.
clay roads. but every foot has beer
built by Batesburg and Leesville
and private subscription. The sec.
ton south of us wouldn't know the
chain gang if they would see it anc
wouldn't know the supervisor if il
wouldn't be for election years. Are
we right or are we wrong2

continent. have ALREADY been held in
thirty of the largest cities of the
country, and in many smaller cities
as we'll.
This great Missionary Jubilee
should prove a wonderful factor in
inspiring women to work together
tor the interest of the church; and
the earnest cooperation of every
woman is desired.
Intsr-denominational Mass Meet
ings will be held Tuesday and We'd
nesday evenings. Missionaries and
prominent speakers from Mission
Boards of the different churches
will be heard, and the finest voices in
the city will lead in a specially ar
ranged programme. A luncheon
during which there will be number
of informal addresses, will be served
on Tuesday morning.
One of the leading speakers of
the Jubilee will be Mrs. Helen Bar
rett Montgomery. author of West
ern Women in Eastern Lands"
former President of the Federation
of Clubs in New York state, a trus

brilliant lecturer and strong spiritual
leader.
The women Of our city and state

We do not believe that Governor
Blease can deliver the South Caro-
lima vote to Harmon any more than
we believe that The State can deliv-
CT it to Wilson. We have an idea
that the people are going to do a
little thinking for themselves, and as
a result thereof the speaker of the
last Congress is going to stand
good chance of securing the South
Carolina vote for president. Why
should he not? There is no man in
the party whose experience in pub
lie affairs better qualities him for
the position than Champ Clark. Be-
sides his recent record in Congress
is fresh in the memory of every
body and it is heartily approved.
He has the confidence of the people
and he is the logical man for the
democrats to put forward for Presi-
dent.

GEORGIA-CAROLINA FAIR

Augusta. Ga. Sept. 28-With on
ly six weeks intervening until the O.
pening of the Georgia Carolina Fair
the officers and directors are busy
getting ready for fall show which
will eclipse any previous one. There
are reasons why the Georgia Caro-
lima Fair. which viii be held from
Nov. 9th to llth inclusive, should
be bigger and better in every way
than ever before and eclipsing by
far even the magnificent show of
last year. This year the conditions
promise to be ideal. The farmers
are making splendid crops this year
in almost every locality in Eastern
Georgia and Western South Caro-
lima. and with their pockets full of
money person is much more likely
to become enthused over this Fall
Fair than if he had made poor
crop and was barely doing more than
paying expenses.
The greatest one feature added to
the fair of 1911 will be the Corn
Show. From twenty five counties
of Georgia and South Carolina
there will be splendid corn exhibits
and large portion of the main faif
building has been set aside for the
Corn Show. The Corn Show will
be a free attraction, un like at many
places where an admission fee is
charged to see these exhibits alone.
The Poultry Show, which is al
ways one of the best if not the best
attraction, at the entire fair, will be
better than ever this year for much
more space has been added to the
poultry building and the number OF
birds this year will be much larger
than ever before. The visitors al
the fair last year were greatly i'm.
pressed with the splendid poultry
display and the news that it will be
better than ever this year is bounc
to cause much pleasure.
The agricultural and liz estock ex.
hibits promise to be better than ev.
e. before and the educational exhib-
it of the Georgia State College Of
Agriculture will be one of the most
interesting features of the fair.
A moving picture show put on by
the International Harvester Com.
pany will show every stage in the
growth of corn and wheat from the
time that it is planted until the time
