NOTICE TO HOLDERS OF
SCHOOL CLAIMS.
South Carolina,
County of Edgefield.

South Carolina,
County of Edgefeld.
In the Matter of the School Claims
of Edgefeld County:
Whereas, there is some doubt in
the public mind, especially in the
mind of the County Superintendent
of Education, as to how the school
fund now on hand should be dis
bursed; And whereas the Treasur-
er, Superintendent of Education and
certain holders of school claims
have met to consider the question,
and after due consideration of the
question, we recommend that the
Superintendent Of Education and
the County Treasurer call in all OF
the holders of school claims against
the county-so as to enable them to
find out exactly how much is due,
and that none of the school claims
be paid until this is done so that
they can accurately find what can
be paid.
1t is further recommended that
when this fact is ascertained that
the school money on hand be pro-
rated among the bolders of said
claims, l91l.
o. Sheppard,
Chairman.
All holders of school claims are
requested to send me the amount
that they hold for 1910 and also the
amount held for 1911. Send
amounts separately.

Double Page Advertiser mt.

The readers of The Advertiser
will see something this week that
they have never before seen in an
EdgeG Id paper--a full double-page
advertisement. This sets a new
pace for advertising in this section,
and it is all the more notable when
the first advertisement of such lar.e
proportions was published by coun-
try merchants, w. M. q J. T. QUITS
Company. This popular firm bad
a full single page in The Advert
ser last week. and Saturday after
noon we received a telegram order
ing a double-page for this week.
Such an advertisement truly reflects
the progressive ideas and modern
methods of this large firm, the
volume of whose business steadily
increases. We cannot refrain from
calling attention to the fact-with
pardonable pride, too-that the pur-
chasing of so much space in one is
sue is a very strong endorsement of
The Advertiser as an advertising
medium. Mr.. Jessie F. QUITS, the
efficient young manager, has made
a thorough test several times and is
satisfied that money spent for space
in The Advertiser brings large re.
turns.
Read the double-page advertise
ment and profit by the bargains that
are being offered during the annual
clearance sale which lasts through
January goth.

New York, May 31--The pannier
skirt has evidently come to stay-at
least for a while-and it is the most
talked of feature of the present season s
fashion. The success of the pannier
skirt depends mainly upon keeping its
fullness at and below the knees, gath
ering 1t to one side and draping it ir-
regularly. Some of the fullness comes
from the waistline, more from the
length but there are not set rules to
follow. Sometimes there are three side
plaits at the waistline on each side and
these drop to the lower edge of the
tunic. about one yard, affording ma

Another model, has the plaits in the
