MT. ZION NEWS.
Modern School Building, Honor
Roll, Thanksgiving Enter
tainment. Cleanup Day
Observed.

Dear Advertisers / have never
had the pleasure of reading letter
in your paper from any member Of
the Mt. Zion school so / have at
last decided to write this one time
and if it escapes the waste basket
probably will come sgain.
First, I will tell you about our
school building, etc. We have a
handsome new building with mod
ern equipments. Our teacher is a
young lady from your town, Miss
Mamie Cheatham. We have four
teen pupils enrolled, ranging from
the first to ninth grade. Our first
months work has been completed
and those who made the required
average..for honor roll were Marie,
Lila Mae. Brontee and Dewey Pad
gett, Mildred and w. A. Pardue,
Covie and ]. G. Smith.
We observed Cleanup day"
Friday November l3, and although
it required a steady putting forth
of energy the day through we sue
ceeded in making our school grounds
much more attractive.
Miss Cheatham gave lunch par
ty at the school house last Thursday
evening. You see it was on Thanks
giving; that jolly time of the year
which, next to Christmas, is the
most happy time of the year.
So everything conspired to
make the occasion almost ideal.
Even those, who came a long dis
tance were impressed with the beau
tiful weather as even the generous
moon lent it silvery beams to dis
pei the darkness altogether. The
school house was tastefully decorat-
ed for the occasion. The color
scheme of white and green was
beautifully carried out.
After disposing of the bountiful
lunches there was a very interest
" Is!sise y
ingen wes declared to be the most
poetical one of the occasion and
carried away the prize of six lovely
handkerchiefs.
The last. but not least enjoyed,
was an old-fashioned cake walk of
which Mr.. Willie Bush was the
lucky winner.
Well, Thanksgiving with its en-
iovment has passed by like sweet
dream and now follows a rush, her.
aiding the approach Of Christmas.

A Tribute to Confederate Sol.

| have known Mr.. j. H. A. Will
liams nearly forty years. The first
time that ever met him, I was then
drawn to him as with hooks of
STEEL, and | always found him the
same congenial spirit. He lived it
seemed all the time on the sunny
side of life. But he has crossed to
the other shore, and we are satls-
fled that he met his Pilot face to
face at the crossing. How he will
be missed at home, at church and
in the community. He was a Liam
with clean hands, pure lips and a
heart full of the milk of human
kindness. All of his dealings with
his fellowman was done on the
level by the square" He was gal
liant Confederate soldier of Co. A.
10Th South Carolina regiment and
was called the peacemaker Of the
company. When any of the boy S
would get into a scrap he would
quell it. He was man who loved
his country, his convictions were
strong, based upon truth and hon
or and be had the manhood to
stand by those convictions. May his
mantle fall on some one who will as
worJhily wear it. His life is an open
book that may be read Of all men.
He has fought a good fight and
kept the faith. In life he was pa
tient, kind, generous, humble, cour-
teous, unselfish and sincere; even to
the last wearing the ornaments of a
meek and quiet spirit. He has
fought the fight, his armor has been
laid aside, his warfare has ended,
the victory has tbeen won, and his
memory is blessed. In this my last
tribute let me say farewell. From
afar 1 salute my friend, who still
lives in my heart, who still in.
spires my life.
