OF our older ones have Ventured out
in search Of good dinners with tur-
key, but the buggies, the horses, legs
and sometimes shoes, that have been
nicely blacked tell the tale of a few

It always affords the writer great
pleasure to talk, write or read Of good
schools, good churches, and better
roads, the substance of country life.
Let-us add to the honor roll the name
of Mr.. Geo. Wicker, Mr.. L. D. Stone
and Rev. Riser. They worked a bad
hill on the road between the church
and the parsonage.
The Christmas exercises given by
the St. Pauls school were very good.
The recitations and songs were most
ly of a spiritual nature with just
enough of Santa Claus and his pres
ence to make it interesting to the lit
tie ones. The old historic building
has been moved to J. f. Richardson
and sons place, where as private pro-
perty, it will be used as a tenant
house.
The new graded school at Jolly
Street is about completed and will be
dedicatedFriday with a very interest
ing and appropriate program. The
old building has also been sold to J.
F. Richardson and son, and will be
moved in a few days. The Christmas
exercise of this school were some
what similar to st. Paul, being largely
attended. This school is in very
lourishing condition and is fast be-
coming one Of the best country schools
in the county, with a bright future
under the management of two en-
thusiastic young ladies, Miss Lottie
Ealfacre and Miss Mae Amic.
It was with great pleasure that the
people of ST Pauls received hearty
! invitation to DR. and Mrs. J. A. Sligh's
silver wedding anniversary at their
home, 1915 Bryant street, Columbia.
We are glad with him and rejoice with
him who so faithfully ministered to
st. PauI's for At years, whom the peo-
! pie Of ST. PauIs will never cease to
love. A rumber from this congrega-
ton will be present and present him
with purse containing 25 silver dol
lars, each dollar representing one
year Of his married life.
/ Mr.. J. W. Wicker, one our Oldest
citizens, underwent an operation
some time ago and seems to be about
well from the operation but has 9TH
er troubles that keep him in bed. 1t
lis to be hoped that he will be out in
| a few days.
A happy and prosperous New Year
