enthusiastic and successful assault

4 FAMILY REUNION.

That many old people do not re-
ceive the consideration at the hands
of their children and grandchildren
that they ought to receive is fact
too frequently observed, and that it
takes but little 70 make their hearts
rejoice is a fact easily admitted. How
ever there are some old people who
are remembered very kindly by their
children and other relatives.
Uncle Ben Miller and his good wife
are certainly in this class. Last Sat
urday, July 18th, about 1870, a host
of people began pouring in the town
of Little Mountain making their way
to the home of Mr. Miller. Uncle Ben
and his wife were taken on surprise,
not having heard of the happy surprise
in store for them. Those constituting
and attending this happy occasion
were as follows: Five children, twen-
ty-three grandchildren, five great
grandchildren, two sons-in-law, two
daughters-in law, the husband of three
granddaughters and nine visitors, not
related to the family.
Rev. Long and family were present
and with the others enjoyed the hap
py occasion.
A table was built in the front yard
and the rich and bountiful contents of
the many baskets were placed thereon
and heartily enjoyed by all. 1t was
rich dinner and one noted, not only
for it's bounty, but also for its variety.
Some beautiful presnt were given to
Mrs. Miller which, of course, were
greatly appreciated.
Late in the afternoon the crowd dis
bursed with glad and happy hearts
because of the occasion just observed
and enjoyed.
Many more just such reunions
should be held It is the duty of
children who have been blessed with
honorable parentage, to be very kind
to and considrate of their parents and
especially in their old and declining
days.
We hope Uncle Ben and his good
wife and their large family will have
other such reunions.

sudden bereavement which has come
to them in the taking away of the wife

To show that though size occupies
a prominent place in the smart set

is of a truly domestic nature, a
young woman of Cleveland pitched
in to help get dinner, in the absence
of the cook who was i'll.
The furried housemaid, who was
struggling with a refractory coffee
machine, confessed to her mistress
that she had forgotten to wash the

In speaking of the condition OF

placing the blame at the door of the
trustees, because we think the blame
attaches alike to all who have loved
ones buried there, and to the citizens
of the community who have none, be-
cause it is a place in which we all
should show an interest. There should
he some sort OF organization, how
ever, to look after the general appear

there are things over there besides

We do not know what authority the
trustees have, but if some one would
take the matter in hand we feel sat

tribute sufficient funds to make decent

SUNDAY SCHOOL NORMAL.

Next Monday evening at the col
lege the South Carolina Sunday school
normal begins it's sessions which are
to last until Thursday at noon. For
weeks past the slogan among the Sun
day school officers and teachers has
been, Meet me on the campus of New
berry college" And these earnest
workers are about to come together to
take counsel with each other how to
do the work of teaching in the Sun
day school to the best advantage.
The normal is not convention. 1t
is a school organized with classes
for study, meeting in the several class
rooms of Holland hall at regular in
tervals. AS soon as the visitors ar
rive, they will register their names
and the courses of study they wish to
pursue And beginning at nine o'clock
the classes will meet regularly until
Thursday. Chapel exercises will be
held at 845. Half nour lesson per-
iods begin at nine o'clock and con-
tinue until two, when the normal ad-
journs for dinner. The afternoon is
given to recreation and games. At
six o'clock, an open air conference is
held on the lawn, and at seven vesper
services are conducted. After supper,
which, with al other meals, is served
at the boarding hall for nominal fee,
the normal assemblies for a lecture OF
popular nature by we'll known speak,
ers.
The curriculum OF the normal in
cludes a course in junior and primary
work. 1t offers a course in Sunday
school pedagogy, or the laws of teach
ing. Practical demonstrations will be
given. A course in Bible history is
one of the features. Missions is a
subject also included. And periods are
set apart for the study and practice of
Sunday school music.
The faculty includes such well
known Sunday school workers as Rev.
E. C. Cronk, D. D., Columbia, S. c.;

be given the students Of the normal,
on the college campus. A number of
the townspeople have been invited to
be present and help entertain the Wis
itors.
Most of the students will be lodged
in the college dormitory and home
near the campus.
The program offers a feast of good
things, and while it means a good
deal of work for such hot weather,
it is expected that under such pleas
ant surroundings as the college build
ing and campus afford, large and per-
manent results will accrue to the
Sunday schools of the State.

London Men All in Grey.
Springfield Republican.

Springfield Republican.
The grey, tall hat was a popular
thing is this country in the '70s, as
many a reader will remember. He will
be interested in the fact that the gray
top hat has come to its own again in
London this summer. Such hats are
regarded as 'tthe thing" in the house
of commons, and are to be seen in in
creasing numbers at all fashionable
open-air gatherings, says a London
special to the New York Herald. The
gray beaver" follows the latest style
of the ordinary tall hat, but is made
df felt with a gray silver band instead
of black silk. This is revival Of the
old order of things, but it used to be
the fashion here for young men to
have wide. black bands encircie their
gray hats. Cool and pleasing is the
thought IF London clad in gray hats
and light gray morning coat and
trousers. The gray hat came as the
elimination of the gray suitings, the
crowning glory, as it were. The top
notch Of London fashion adds gray
spats. socks and tie to complete the
picture:
King George has adopted the tall
gray hat, which was a favorire with
King Edward before and after he sue
ceeded Queen Victoria. Back in 1873
two Springfield men Ventured to carry
their gray, tall hats to England TOR
the comfort of them, but expected that
their headgear would mark them as
Americans It proved to be quite 9TH
erwise, for the Prince of Wales had
made the light gray top hat respect
ed commonplace in England. Perhaps
by next year the men OF this country
will be found wearing once again tall
gray hats, although the tendency OF
automobiliDg to make caps and other
slouchy head covering the popular
thing may interfere with any such
toning I'D of masculine bearing here.

then have the Fairgrounds. 1t would
cost very little and we are satisfied

State and it's notable divorce court
activity CEASED last midnight. By 1914
the unique Reno divorce colony will
have passed into history.
Fully 700 men and women, Or about
5 per cent of the entire population of
Reno now constitute the colony Of
temporary residents. Not 2 per cent
of them ever remain here more than
a few days after securing their de-
crees.
During the past month, and especial
ly last week, the throng of newcomers
has experienced great difficulty in Sc
curing apartments. All the hotels are
crowded, as are the desirable rooming
houses Available cottages are almost
as scarce as the proverbial hens
teeth. In many cottages, from four
to six Divorces are living. Some pri-
vate boarding places are housing as
many as ten of the fair sex. There are
now scores of so-called divorces
nests" here Every train the past
week has unloqded rev arrivals, the
prepcn l':'ence of men and very e
women, seemingly well 70 90 and
fashionable, being noticeable. The pro-
portion of men to women has increas-
ed largely. Baby carriages and bull
pups are playing conspicuous parts
as never before.
There is life and action day and
night. Saddle horses are working
overtime; the river, a turbulent noun
tain stream, running directly through
the centre of the city, and alive with
mountain trout, presents daily scenes
of big catches of the speckled beau
ties; joy riding is doing a land-ofdce
business, while the cafes and nearby
resorts resound with the popping OF
corks, merriment and music-a verita-
BILE scene of wine, women and song,
such as even Reno has never before
witnessed.
Over in the new s16O,OOO court house
within view of all these festivities, the
divorce mill keeps up it's silent and
unceasng grinding, and the elated di-
vorcee having just secured his much
sought decree, opens bottle or sew
eral bottles with friends and a new
conner in celebration of the joyous
event
And so, from present indications,
1913 is to witness the exit of Reno's
divorce colony, to which no more
members can reasonably expect to be
added Elsewhere throughout the
State, the comparatively few colonists
are keeping within their shell OF OBJ
scurity in some measure, pocketing
their DEGREES and hiking away as Sc
cretly as they endeavored unsuccess-
fully to come.

Secretary of State Bryan says he
can't live in Washington on $4,000
a wear. He may be including in that
the ten thousand he had been putting

might get on reasonably well on the
salary. 1t is a fact, however, that the

professor of English at winthrop
since the college was founded, has
been elected to the chair OF English
at the Citadel Academy. If he wants
it, and we presume he does, we are
glad ne has gotten it, but somehow we
believe we would rather teach girls
than boys, and besides, we know we
would rather be instrumental in max
ing teachers for the country schools
than in turning out soldiers. DR.. Kin
ard is from Newberry and an alum
nus of the Citadel and maybe he feels
like he wants to go back home. We
all have that feeling as we grow old

He is a fne teacher and an accom-
plished scholar and educator, and will
be a strong addition to the faculty Of
any college.
