farmers here have planted corn as

tinued the university head. "NoW it
seems to me that the instructor should
be a business man. Especially should
this be true of the men who have ad-
ministrativc work to accomplish" Or,
Brooks fills the description of a sedate

dred yards from where the camp
was situated. He has about fifty
dogs which he keeps mainly for
pleasure. The race was very short.
for the fox ran about five hundred
yards, and jumped up tree, where
he was caught and put up again un-
til the next morning, then turned
loose for another race, This time the
dogs caught and killed him.
At three in the afternoon we had
to give the people of the town an
other dress parade. The streets
were crowded again and it was a
hard matter for us to 60 through
manual of arms, when so many girls
were there watching US. After being
marched back to camp, and released
many Of the cadets attended and
enjoyed another dance that was CIV
en- for.their benefit that night. Those
that did not attend the dance stayed
around town and enjoyed the NOV
les.
Friday morning we broke camp.
We had to take the tents down and
fold them up. then get our blanket
reIls and accoutrements ready for
the return march. Having gotten
everything ready to return, we were
released until l p. m. At one we as
sembled, put our blanket rolls on
our shoulders and our accoutre-
ments on. At lis the bugle sound
ed for forward march. All then
marched to the depot, put our ac-
coutrements on the cars, then at
tended the ball game. Clemson
played against Furman, and of
course came out with the victory.
at $50 we assembled at the depot,
and the first sergeants called the
roll, hen we boarded the train
bound for good ola Clemson once
more. Every one Kept MS eyes on
the town that he had had such a
royal time in for the past four days
until it vanished from his sight.
We soon reached Cherrys, and after
few minutes march we reached
barracks again. Although every one
of us had a sumptuous time | think
every one warmly welcomed his old
room once more.
In conclusion must say that the
conduct Of the cadets was excellent,
and every one conducted himself in
as gentlemanly manner as possible.

The cantata, A Saloonless Ma
tion in l920," has been postponed
until Friday night May Ia.
This is good time to begin the
spring cleaning of the old town.
Mayor Corley keeps the public
square and the streets free of all
waste and refuse matter. Now let
the home owners look after their
premises.
Mr.. JIG. Byrd, the public cotton
weigher, has up TO this time weigh.
ed about 1000 bales, while for the
entire season last year he only
weighed $500. Mr.. Byrd estimates
that 1000 bales more will be
weighed on the Edgefeld market.
M. H. w. Quarles of the Red
Hill section was in town Monday
and brought along a large number
of cans of delicious desert peaches
which he readily sold. In addition
to peaches, Mr.. Quarles canned
large quantity of vegetables. He
practices living at home.
Why is it that robins are not
slaughtered now as they were sew
eral years ago? Probably it is due
to the more stringent game laws
and the possibility of the game
warden swooping down on the slay-
er. A. any rate we are glad to see
that robins are not molested as for
merly in this section.
A welcome service for the new
pastor, DR.. K. Pendleton Jones,
will be>held at the Baptist church
Sunday night. A welcome will be
extended from all the churches in
town, Rev. J. R. Walker reresent-
ing the Methodist church, Rev. r.
G. Shannonhouse the Episcopal
church, Rev. E. c. Bailey the Pres
byterian church and MIR. Orlando
Sheppard will welcome DR.. Jones

Mr.. w. J. Huiett was interviewed. |
At first he refused, but when the wo.
men of the town sent petition beg
ging him to accept the nomination
he did accept, and it Was then that
the call came for the women to
work for the election of Mr. w. j.
Huiett.
A day was appointed, and al
though we had small union that
had been organized by oar beloved
Mrs. Sallie F. Chaplin, South Caro-
lina's first president of the w. G.
T. U. we wished to have the CO.
operation Of the women of the
town in body. Mr.. Hundley,
then pastor of the Baptist church,
with two girls, went to all the
homes, inviting the mothers, daugh-
ters and sisters to meet at the
Methodist church that afternoon at
$3.50 O'Clock. At the appointed
hour the:church was filed with the
women of Johnston. Mr.. w. L.
Rogers, the pastor of the Methodist
church being the only man present
opened The meeting with such
prayer for wisdom and guidance in
this undertaking that l believed all
were aroused to enthusiasm on the
subject. The local president of the
w. C. T. U. was present, but not
feeling quite fit that afternoon, the
Corresponding Secretary was asked
to take the chair and call the meet
ing to order and state the object of
the meeting. After hearing the OBJ
ject for which we were here, som
were afraid their husbands might
object and hesitated to join US,
but we having convinced them that
we must all go together soon they.
consented. We formed into pro.
cession of two and two, the wife of j
the pastor heading the line with
another lady. l expect we looked
quite formidable, but l assure you !
we did not feel so. A band of weak,
timid nervous women, doing some
thing certainly out of our line Of
work, but were strengthened by the
thought, that it was for home and
loved ones. As we neared the worst
saloon, those in front halted, but
only for moment; a dear old
country woman, who had never be-
fore thought she could speak a
word in public, came forward and
telling us she was not afraid, she
was tie first to press the green |
screen and enter the door. The
keeper, although under the infu-
ence of whiskey at the time came
forward and as politely as he could,
asked our business. We told him
how and what we wished him to do,
and although he wonld make NO
promises, he afterward said, had
we talked much longer he would
have broken down and cried.
To the honor of the saloon let it
be said, though we met many black
looks, we, were not insulted, only
one telling us we had better be at
home at work"
Thus We sowed the seed, and pro-
hibition law for our town was the
harvest. j
After that several men who had |
been active in the movement were
threatened by having bundle of
lightwood splinters and matches
tied to the door knobs. but nothing
came of IT.

The Crusade of the Women OF
Johnston Against the Saloon
in 1881.

The spring of that year was sad
gloomy time for our little town.
Whiskey and drunkenness were
everywhere, also card playing and
gambling of all kinds. Of the ten
or twelve stores that were here, six
or seven were bar.rooms. Ladies
and children were almost afraid to
go on the streets especially on Sat
urday afternoons. The municipal
election was soon to be held and so
much were the men under the con-
troll of fear of the saloon.keepers
that while some were for prohibi-
tion it was hard to find man who
was willing to allow his name to be
seen on the prohibition ticket.
