Mr.. Foy is chief Of police at

the reporter, is how it ever comes to
pass that beautiful woman marries
such an ugly man, when he sees one
walking in Newberry. How did that
lovely, sweet woman marry that hor-
rible man? Now this is not personal,
there are several in Newberry to fill
the bill.
Mrs Mary Armor, of Georgia, will
lecture at tne Central Methodist
church Friday night Mr.. Armor has
lectured here before and is no strang-
er to our people. She is pleasantly
remembered as a powerful and con-
vincing speaker 1t is to be hoped
large audience will greet ner to hear
the great truths she will present.
Vacant lots that are allowed to
grow up in weeds are not only a nul-
sance to the neighbors but are men
ace to the health of the community
They breed mosquitoes, flies, malaria
and mischief The health authorities
ought not to permit their contin-
nance. City council has right to
regulate this along with other nu1-
sances.-Florence Times.
Cincinnatis recorder fined two
young ladies S100 for bathing in a
bath tub on a porch one morning.
What is the country coming to when
women come out on the front porch
by broad day light to use the bath
tub? Of course such thing is an
utter impossibility in Newberry, so 1t
is useless to speculate as to what Re-
corder Earhardt would do in SINH
lar case.
A little more than year ago Rev.
o. G. Davis, just from the Theological
seminary of Due West, began work
in the charge of Prosperity and Can
mons Creek The first thing we did at
Cannons Creek was to build mis-
sion church about three miles from
the old church Mr. Davis is good
preacher and fine organizer.-Mem-
Der of Cannons Creek in A, R. P,

Rev. C. H. Nabors writes of his
work in Newberry as follows: "The
people in Newberry haye been exceed
ingly nice to US. They received US
with open arms, and have done all in
their power to make our stay here a.
pleasant one. Our services have been
we'll attended. Especially have l been
gratifed with the good attendance at
the Wednesday night prayer meet
ings."-A. R. P, 2Srd.
Speaking of moving pictures, there
are grand and beautiful ones every
night, free of charge. They are pref
tier when the moon is out of the way
the milky way. Take dark night
and look up See the deep blue back
of the stars and watch the stars with
the various formations and chang
ing positions, and if you don't see
moving pictures that are inspiring and
never tifing you have no eye for the
beautiful
Everybody is invited, and it is hop
ed nearly everybody will go, to the
mass meeting of citizens called for
Friday morning at II o'clock, in the
court house, to hear the report of the
trustees of the city schools read. This
is important and large crowd ought
to be present Our citizens should
take more interest in such matters.
State Superintendent of Education
Swearingen is expected to be present
with talk.
1t gives US pleasure to note from a
washington dispatch 10 tne CnarleSton
News and Courier, that Senator Till
man and Congressman Jos. T. john
son are backing up the appeal of Gov
ernor Blease for the pardon Of M. A.
Carlisle, the former Newberry banker
1t is said that the president gave the
congressman close attention and made
a note of their request. AS we have
said before, we think it nothing but
right that Carlisle should be pardon
ed, and we sincerely hope that the
president will be able to see it that
way-Yorkvillee Enquirer.
