Interesting Letter From MIR. P
N. Lott.

A recent visit to Edgefeld
brought us in contact with several
very pleasant patriotic and useful
people living and exercising their
talents for the uplift of humanity
in historic Edgefeld. We do not
speak advisedly but as fact when
we assert historic because Edgefield
has a history of which every citizen
born and raised in her borders is
proud. 1t was and il the home of
some of the greatest soldiers, states
men and jurists of the south, yes of
the nation. 1t was the home of the
Pickens, Buffers, Bonhams, Garys,
Tillmans, Tompkins, Bacons, Minis
and other noted citizens. On this oc-
casion it was our pleasure to meet
several sons and daughters of citi-
zens that lived there generations
ago. ,,Mr. J. L. Minis, editor and pro-
prietor of one of the oldest and best
county newspapers in the south. Mr..

gagement of Mr.. Elziei La Creme to

of Dr.. and Mrs. Coleman of Aiken,
and friends are extending to him
hearty congratulations upon win
ming so charming a life companion.
The marriage will take place about
the middle of October.
The New Century Club has re-
sumed activities and the first meet,
ing of the fall months was held on
Tuesday afternoon with Miss Zena
Payne. There was an amount OF ac-
cumulated business to come before
the meeting which Mrs. F. M. Boyd
as president transacted. Shakespeare
is again being studied and few
minutes of each meeting will be de-
voted to current events. The lesson
study was Loves Labor's Lost, ="
and Mrs. John w. Marsh made a
delightful teacher and this sehti-
mental play was well discussed.
Following the lesson social hour
was enjoyed, there being a number
of invited friends present, besides
the members. Misses Frances and
Bessie Ford Turner served fruit
nnnch ont on the piaZZa and all
passed from here out into the flower
garden where in a corner, with
flowers, rustic chairs and seats, a
salad course was served. While re-
freshiug themselves they listened to
several musical selections by Mrs.
O. ID. Black.

thousand horses are hoofs, rough
shod and pitiless; beneath whose
furious tread the plain is soon to

Again on each slope of the open

A Cavalry Charge at Gettys-
burg.

I have been asked to describe a
real cavalry charge. That will be a
rather difficult job for me to do, as
I was in the infantry arm Of the
service, and never witnessed out one
cavalry charge during the four years
that was in the war, and that was
counter-charge. My command
was stationed upon an elevation
overlooking the plains below, wait
ing for orders to plunge into the
vortex. To see thousands of men
on horses with sabre drawn at
arm. length going as fast as the
horses could run, meeting in combat
in open field, is one of the most aw-
full things thattakes place in war. But
war is soldiers occupation, and he
accepts the conditions.
For ages after the dismember-
ment of the Roman Empire, it was
the vast bodies of cavalry that
checked and changed the currents
of battles and settled the fate of
armies and empires. This is not
true now-can never be true again;
but cavalry charge, met by a
counter-charge of cavalry, is still,
perhaps, the most terrible spectacle
witnessed in war. Imagine your
self looking down upon an open
plain, where five thousand horses
are marshalled in battle.line. Stand

No business man in any town
should allow newspaper published
in his town to 60 without his name
of business being mentioned some-
where in its columns, says an ex.
change. This applies to all kinds OF
business. general stores, dry goods,
groceries. furniture dealers, manu-
featuring establishments, automobile
dealers, mechanics. profe ssional men
md, in TACT. all classes OF business
men. This does not mean that YOU
should have a whole or even a quar-
ter page ad every issue of the paper,
but your name and business should
be mentioned if you do not use more
than two-line space. A stranger
picking up a newspaper should be
able to tell just what business is rep
resented in a town by looking at the
business mentioned in the paper.
This is the best possible town adver.
tser. The man who does not ad-
vertise his business does an injustice
to himself and his town. He is a
man who expects the newspaper to
do the most free boas,ing for his
town. The man who insists on
sharing the business that comes to a
town but refuses to advertise his bust.
ness is not very valuable to any town.
The life of any town depends upon
live, wide awake and liberal adver.
tlsing business men.
