away while on visit to Mrs. Sour
ry on Friday last, February End,
and was inferred at our village
cemetery on Saturday afternoon,
DR.. NJ. D. Jeffries, officiating. Mrs.
Stevens was ffty-nine years of age,
and was a resident of Greenwood.
She is survived by four daughter
and one son, Mr.. Claud Stevens of

Red Hill School.

Yesterday was good day fol
Republican and Red Hill.
Rev. E. T. Snuggs preached at
Republican in the morning and Red
Hill in the afternoon. Bro. Snuggs
is missionary from outh China.
He has labored long and well for
Christ there.
Since we last wrote, death has
come into our community, and we
are never prepared for death in our
homes. / mean death never comes
at the right time-humanly speak
ing-for it always brings sorrow
and sadness, when it comes sin
gle handed, but when death comes
to home and takes two members
of a family in a few hours of each
other it is almost heart breaking.
This was the case with MIR. and
Mrs. Walter Holmes. The Lord gave
them two bright and beautiful little
girls Letitia years and six months
and Odella was years and five
months old. They lived just long
enough to be interesting to their
fond parents and friends. God came
and took them to himself in the
home he had prepared for little

Moved to Georgia.

Having rented his farm, and dis
posed of most of his personal prop
erty, Mr.. S. Cheatham left with his
family last Saturday to make his
home in Georgia. He has purchased
a valuable farm about seventy-tive
miles from Augusta, near the Geor-
gia and Florida railroad, where he
will apply the same business judg
ment and progressive ideas, as he
did to his property in Edgefeld
county. The people of Edgefeld
will give Mr.. .Cheatham and his es-
timable family to Georgia with
great reluctance. He has promised
to write an occasional letter to The
Advertiser from his adopted home.

A Sad Bereavement.

Mr.and Mrs.J. w. Afford, of Covine
ton, Ca, have recently come into
our midst, Mr.. Afford having charge
of the installing of electric lights
in our town. On Saturday night
last their little girl, Elizabeth, who
has been i'll for a week or more,
passed into the beyond, at the home
of Mrs. Marion Jones, where the
family were boarding. This dear
little girl was at the interesting age,
being just FIVE years old, and was a
beautiful child. Mr.. and Mrs. AL
ford are left with one little boy,
strangers in Edgefeld, and yet hav-
ing a place in the hearts of the peo-
pie. Many expressions of Sympathy
have been heard, and though they
are not known personally to many
in Edgefeld, they are recipients of
their coincidence and prayers. On
Sunday afternoon at $50 o'clock
this little girl was laid to rest in the
cemetery at Edgefeld, Rev. ]. R.
Walker, and DR.. M. D. Jeffries,
officiating.

Ordination Service.

A very interesting service took
place at the Baptist church on Sun,
day afternoon when three members
of church, o. Sheppard, Esq, Mr..
w. B. Cogburn and Col. F. N, K.
Bailey were set apart as deacons Of
the local church. Mr.. Sheppard had
held this office in the church with
which he had previously been con-
nected. and did not have to be or
dained, the other two, receiving the
laying on of hands.
DR.. I. M. Bailey and DR.. Dorset
were expected to be present on this
occasion, but were detained. 1t was
regretted that DR.. Bailey's health
interfered with his presence. DIR.
Dorset was detained on account of
conflicting duties.
DR.. Hatcher is greatly beloved in
Edgefeld, and his coming was a
great joy to many. He was looking
remarkably well, and full of youth
full exuberance. He will never grow
old. His address was on the ideal
deacon, and was delightful inter
pretation of the scriptural require
ments for that important Office. He
paid tribute to those who were
being made deacons, and made an
original and very interesting exhor-
tation to them based on the six
abilities which he enlarged on,
viz: agreeability, adjustability, pre-,
sentability, honorability, service
ability and indispensability. This
unique way of presenting the ideas
he had in mind, was extremely in
teresting. After the ordination SER
vice closed, all the members of the
church as well as the officiating
ministers went up and shook hands
with the newly installed deacons,
and all the people took this oppor-
tunity Of greeting DR.. Hatcher
again.

with the crowds TO the summer re-

that the hot, dry weather was beat

Home Coming Delayed.

Rev. Jeha Lake and wife, of
South China, were granted a fur
Tough by the Board in order that
they might come home and recup-
e. ate, but owing to the great need
of workers at the front, they have
written that they will not come
now, but will stay until next year.
When we see the conservation of
these young people who have been

the homeland ought to try to render
more earnest service to our God.-

tion of some of the large boys and
girls who never before enjoyel | a
game of snow ball.
Before going further with my
letter will relate some of the chang
es in our neighborbood as well as
many other communities just to
call to mind what few years. bring
forth. For instance If one 7ofeour
teachers that taught for us eightsor
ten years ago were to visit among
us now, they would notice more
than we do. Some of the boys and
girls, their pupils theu, are now
young men and young ladies. Many
of the young men and ladies then
are now married, many of the faces
they saw then, they would not see
now.
Almost every home has had i'm
provements and changes, such as
telephones, gas lights, water works,
r. f. DIS. Automobiles, mortor-
cycles, negroes riding in fine vehi-
cles, ETC., are daily seen.
Among other improvements, in
stead of the little bdilding in which
they taught, the teachers would find
a nice new school building with
nice improved furniture.
We have Sunday school ever
Sunday afternoon and preaching o.
the third Sunday afternoon by the
Rev. J. T. Littlejohn.
Our ladies missionary union
meets every 2nd Saturday afternoon
in our Sunday school room.
Mrs. G. T. Mathis, who has been
sick for some time, improves slowly,
although we are proud to say, she
is not confined to her bed now.
Mr.. o. J. Prince who has been
on visit to srelatives in Tennessee
and Texas, and was much tagged
out from his long "trip, is feeling
much better now.
Mrs. D. T. Mathis visited her
sister Mrs. John Mays last week
near Edgefeld.
Mrs. J. H. Mathis spent last week
with her parents Mr.. and Mrs. Eu-
gene tThurmond near the Grove
church. We were glad to see her
and the two little children come
back home.
We were sorry to see Mr.. T. M.
Hammond and little Grady move
from among US. They have gone to
East Golfers.
We are glad of our two new
neighbors Mr.. and Mrs. w. II.
Thurmond of Modoc and Mr.. and
Mrs. r. L. Prince.
Miss Aminee Cartledge one of
our pretty girls who teaches at
East Golfers is at home on visit,
and Misses Alpha Hammond and
Ellie Mathis two more of our pretty
girls of the S. G. G. 1. have
been to visit home folks
Mr.. II. w. McKie is operating a
saw mill in our community and we
are glad to get our lumber SO near
home.
We notice some of our boys have
turned their moustache out; some
have put on long pants; some drlv-
ing pretty new houres; some of the
bahelors have shaved off their NOUS
tache; some part their hair in their

Co operative Canneries to be
Established in South Carroll
Mr.. w. w. Adams,
Edgefield, S. G.
Dear Mr.. Adams:--

travelling Imm. Agt. has interview
ed personally and by correspond
ence man in Patterson, N. j., who
is anxious to start a small number
of cooperating canneries in South
Carolina. I might say Mr.. Finster
has investigated and found this man
to be thoroughly practical expert
along this line, and who means
business. / am writing you for in
formation on the status of canned
goods supply in your town. Also to
ascertain if you have any truck
growers, farmers, or business men
in your community who would be
interested in the establishment of a
small cooperative cannery at your
poiD'
re going to try and estab-
III number of these cooperative
.ories with a central ware house
4nd selling point in the state. 1t is
our intention to have utilized large
ly surplus for canning.
We are starting on February
18th, tour ofabout fourteen towns
in connection with this work. We
hope to establish a factory requir-
ing small amount of capital at
each of these points. 1t is our inten-
ton to visit your town February
10th and meet your local men in
this proposition. Won't you give
this prompt personal attention and
interest as many growers and busi-
ness men as possible in this work;
! calling meeting definitely for the
above date at IL a. m.
1t is imperative that we get busy
and get as large a representative
body of men as possible to attend
this meeting. You can see doubtless
without my mentioning it that the
season is rather late and it will re-
quire effort on our part to enable the
grower and all interested to get the
most possible out of this undertak-
ing. Another thing, it is necessary
to get this started to allow plenty
of time for ordering seed and is
suing instructions for handling of
crops. For the best results it will
be necessary to obtain certain va
rieties of vegetables and have these
distributed to all growers. By or
ganizing comparatively we will be
able to save considerable money for
the growers in obtaining supplies.
Also impress upon peo .,le you in
terview, the fact that the growers,
being financially interested in the
proposition, will be the ones to
benefit by cooperative buying.
Mr.. Finster and myself intend to
attend these meetings having with
us where possible the expert man
ner interested, also Com. Agr. Wat
son.
