Must Scheme Like Yankees.

We can never catch up with the
Yankee farmers making money un-
til we begin saving time, labor, and
expense as they do. They are all
the time inventing some new labor
saving tool or piece of machinery,
or buying some such thing the
other fellow has invented. We
must do likewise if we wish to pros
per as they do. Two, three, and
four-horse plows, stump-pullers,
manure spraaders, the best planters
and harrows and riding cultivators,
wheat harvesters, and corn binders
these are the things that max :
the Western farmer rich, because
they enable him to run his brain
with two, three, five or ten-horse
power instead Of one-horse power.
Progressive Farmer.

Flat Rock School Letter.

l ask space for this my first let
ter. Wonder how many of our
school boys and girls like to read?
1 think it is very helpful. Reading
gives us a knowledge of the outer
world and helps to broaden our
minds. We should remember that
knowledge is power" We should
all perform our work cheerfully. If
we would 60 at our work with a
smile instead of with frown it
would make our tasks much easier.
1t certainly requires a brave spirit
to smile and press forward when
disappointments come. Let us re-
member at all times that there is so
much to be thankful for. Let US
leave the doubt and gloom behind
us and try to be happy all the time.
Mr.. Editor, we had grand time
down here Christmas. We had d
pound party here at our home
which was greatly enjoyed BY all
present. Rev. p. II. Bussey and
his sweet wife were present. The
boys present hemmed the aprons of
the girls, the one doing the pret-
tiest sewing being awarded a large
cake as a prize by ii rs. Matte ken-
rick. We had much fun cutting
for the ring and the button. The
ring fell to my lot. L. 3.

| L ee's Birthday Fittingly Observ
ed.

The birthday of Gen. Robert E.
Lee was observed by appropriate
exercises that were held Saturday
afternoon in the Baptist church un-
der the auspices of the Daughters
of the Conrederacy. At the request
of the chapter Capt. N. G. Evans
acted as master of ceremonies. AT
ter prayer by Rev. P. P. Blalock,
Mrs, Mamie N. Tillman rendered
an inspiring selection, entitled a
Medley of Southern Airs on the
pipe organ. Capt. Evans then pre-
sented Col. U. R. Brooks, the orator
of the occasion. Being in Edgefeld,
the place of his birth, and among
friends of his boyhood and early
manhood, very naturally caused
COL. Brooks to become reminiscent.
On this account the early part of
his remarks were devoted to relat-
ing incidents of the war that were
connected with Edgefeld and Edge
field men. After referring to the
horrors of the days of reconstruc-
tion and the tyrany of carpet-bag
domination, Col. Brooks stated
that there were three men who car
ried the day for white supremacy
in South Carolina, Gen. Wade
Hampton, Gen. NJ. c. Butler and
Gen. Mart. w. Gary, the two last
named being Edge6eld men. He al
so spoke of the distinguished SER
vice rendered by Hon. John G.
Sheppard as a member Of the Wal
lace House. The weaving of much
local history into his remarks, to-
getber with his easy, conversation
al style, made Col. Brooks address
particularly interesting and effect
i've.
Col. Brooks read carefully pre-.
pared eulogy and comprehensive
biography of Gen. Lee which
should he placed before the boys
and girls of the rising generation
in order that they may form an ac-
curate estimate of his true worth as
a Christian gentleman as we'll as a
military genius.
For more than an hour Col.
Brooks held the closest possible
attention of the appreciative audi
ence, and when the meeting ad-
iourncd many ladies and gentlemen
gathered about him and heartily
thanked him for the splendid ad-
dress.
The closing musical number was
a quartette enabled, Tenting on
the old camp ground. This too was
well rendered. The closing prayer
was offered by DR.. M. D. Jeffries.
A collection was taken from the
benefit of the Airing ton monument
fund.
