"Blues" Give Banquent to "Reds'
A banquet was given at the Pres
byterian church by the Blue" mem
bers of the mems Bible class to the
Red" members of the class Thurs
day night of last week. The class
was divided several weeks ago into
two divisions, THE Blues" and The
Reds" the divisions to vie with each
other INFRINGING in new members.
The Blues were defeated and by
previous agreement the losing side
was to give banquet. to the win
ming members of the class. About
$50 persons were present and ad-
dresses were made by the pastor,
Rev P S McChesney, Rev w l Sim
mott of Salters and Rev Alexander
Sprunt, of the First Presbyterian

PARkTO BE OPENED TOMORROW
Festivities at the kellahan Play
Ground I'm North kingstree.

Ground I'm North kingstree.
The pretty little park at the head
of Academy street in North Kings
tree, to be known as the Kellahan
Play Ground, will be formally opened
tomorrow afternoon, when cake and
lemonade will be served from 5 to 6
o'clock free by the ladies of the Civ
ic league to the children of the town.
For the past three days workmen
have been engaged putting up
swings, see-saws and benches, and
from early in the morning until late
in the evening the small tots are to
be seen there taking advantage of
the devices erected for their enjoy
ment. -
There is still plenty of room IN the
park for other playground devices,
but as there is no fund in hand by
the ladies in charge of the ground
for the purchase of such, it is hoped
that our public-spirited citizens will
get together and donate few swings,
a buck board, a merry-go-round or
anything else that will assist in the
healthful, innocent amusement of
Kingstree's little folk, class and
number of which no town of equal
size is so literally blessed.
The park is named in honor of
the donor, Hon R H Kellahan, who
a year or so ago decided the beauti-
full plot to the town of Kingstree
for the purpose which it is now serv-
ing-a playground for white chill
dren.
Mrs Leroy Lee and other ladies
of the Civic league have been very
active in getting the ground in
shape. A fountain has been placed
ir the center of the park and all un-
desirable growth removed.
Already it is conspicuous as a
place of recreation and amusement
for the children of town.
Ascitizens of Kingstree let's all help
the good ladies who are thus work
ing fot the better, stronger develop
ment of our children.

BUILDING PROGRESS.
Several New Structures Already
Completed This Spring.

Completed This Spring.
Kingstree is still growing. The
past two years, 1913-14,we record
breakers in the building progress of
the old town, but already this year
several very nice residences and one
factory building have been put up,
while prospects for the construction
of several other residences and one
or two tobacco prize houses are be-
ing encouragingly considered.
Messrs Singleton and Alsbrook
have recently completed for Hon R
H Kellahan a very attractive seven
room dwelling in North Kingstree,
which is occupied by Mr. W F Tolley.
| This firm has also about completed a
handsome fve-room cottage on the
same street, opposite the Presby-
terian flanse, for Rev P S McChes-
ney, which will soon be occupied by
Mr. w H Welch, manager Of the
Kingstree Insurance, Real Estate &
Loan Co. The material and work
manship in these buildings are good;
they are fitted with modern cohven-
fences; the architectural lines are
attractive and add considerably to
that beautiful portion of the town.
The store rooms on Academy
street now occupied by the Kings
tree Furniture Company and the
Silverman Department Store, re-
spectively, have recently been thor
oughly overhauled and repaired by
the owner. Hon R H Kellahan.
Messrs Singleton and Alsbrook, in.
corporated under the name of the
Kingstree Manufacturing and Con
struction Co, have completed the
erection of their plant on Hampton
avenue, opposite the Kingstree
Hardware Co.'S store, and quantity
of wood working machinery hai
been received and will soon be in
stalled. When this plant is put in
to operation, the manufacture Of
coffins and caskets will be gone into
in addition to getting out such wooc
work as the proprietors may neec
in connection with their building op
erations as contractors.
1t is very probable that Messr:
Thos McCutchen and L C Dove will
have new homes built here during
the summer.
The Messrs Hirsch have had con
siderable work done by way of i'm
provement on the Academy street
cottage near the Methodist church
acquired by them last fall from Hor
R H Kellahan, preparatory to max
ing it their permanent residence. II
will probably be ready for occupancy
by the middle of June.

EVELYN FLETCHER COPE. Distinguished Originator of the Fetch or System to Be in Norwich.

Mrs. Evelyn Fletcher Copp. one of Anerica's most distinguished musical educators, who has had so large a share in notwithstanding the music teaching methods for choldren, will be in Norwich Saturday evening.
 Mrs. Copp is musician of sound musical training herself, having sup- plemented her earlier studies with i've years abroad. She was a classmate of Max Rieger, in the class of the celebrated Hugo Reimann. with whom she studied two and half years in Wiesbaden. Her work abroad includ- ed well rounded course of study, though she specialized in violin. Re- turning to America she accepted po- sition at the Bishop Strachen school, Toronto, where she began to evolve the system of music study that has since given her fame. She was dissatisfied with the prevailing method of teach ing children, believing that instead of forcing instruction on young people the latter should be made to feel a arouse interest in the child's mind and make for self-exDreEtion in the young student.

AT THE AuDIToRIuM. George 6eban in the Italian, Today
 and Tomorrow.

In the character of Beppo Donnetti, George Beban gives. a nasterly exam pie of what an actor who is alive to his role ana can fee. his part. can do in the way of. holding an. audience in sus- tained tension.
 By facial expression and the natural gestures with the hands he is capable Of depicting so many different phases so many different emotions, that though the action Is only on the screen we wonder why 1t Is said that the screen has It's limitations It is nothing less than wonderful.
 Coupled with good clear photogra- phy, well-chosen interior settings, and a. few startling innovations, such as hanging on the running board of a rapidly moving automobile, being thrown off by a kick in the face, and on, the acting of Beban makes rath- CT pleasing and. interesting production out of a story whose plot Is nothing out of the ordinary. j. $. The story of the immigrant toiling fin a foreign land to earn enough to bring his irrespective bride to his side from | their native land and their subsequent struggles to subsist on the barest living wage, has been used over and over again.
 l But with the help of about 1,5o0 feet of film devoted to scenes in the native Italy and the introduction of the po-
 litical boss in the city of the land ot | the free a rather novel twist Is given to the story and it is made better one than the average.
 On his release from prison, where he has been sent for trying to get milk
 for his dying chind, Beppo learns oi the child's death and holds the poli- tfcal boss indirectly responsible. Re ] membering past favors rendered by him to the boss. he had expected helI I from that quarter only to be literally thrown in the gutter.
 Learning c fthe illness of the boss
 baby. few days later fBeppo, by i'm. l Ipersonatina peddler, secures entrance
 to the house. He hears the doctor tel I the father that the slightest sound Q,
 shock will prove fatal to the child, ans
 when the child is left alone for mo. nnent, .Beppo attains the side of tn, l crib. Raising aloft the glass shadl of a lamp, he is about to dash it t,
 the floor, when a slight movement O
 the child's arm brings to mind that hi own child was wont to make the sam gesture. Gently lowering the shade Beppo steals away.
 ] Altogether the scenes in the las
 thousand feet are heart-rending, an, the pathos as expressed, on the face o
 Beppo and his wife, Annette (Clar l WilNans) Is enough to move the av
 craze audierce to tears, and 1t shoul
 be well received by any appreciativ audience.
