The revival 'of business over the

increase in automobile sales. Mr..
Geo. r. Lombard of Augusta, who
con trolls the sales of Ford cars in

Advertiser yesterday that she Ford
factories shipped upwards of $4,000
cars during the month of March, the
largest shipments in one month
since the F, I'd cars were put on the

Johnston's New School Building.

In The Advertisers columns this
week will be found an itemized
statement of the funds received for
the erection of the handsome new
school building in the town of john
ston and the statement also shows
how the money was paid out. Those
who know the personnel of the
board of trustees that have had
charge of the building and the dis
bursting of the funds know that
every cent intrusted to them has
been wisely spent. They are men
who are not only above reproach
but they have good sound judg-
memt and they concentrated
their best efforts to the end that
the people receive a maximum re-
turn for their money. Study the re-
port and you will see what money
was received and how it was spent
Johnston will never regret the day
that the bonds were voted for the
new building. 1t was good invest
ment, one that will bring large re-
turns-both visible and invisible.

Death of MIR. w. S. Covar.

Since the pension roll for Edge
field county was published fort
night ago, two veterans who rec.iy-
ed pension have passed away, the
last being MIR. William S. Covar
who died at the home of his son,
Mr.. w. R. Covar, Thursday at
noon. Mr.. Covar enlisted in the
Confederate army at the beginning
of the war and served for four years.
He went to the front with the first
company that was formed in this,
county. All down through the years
he has been loyal to the cause, the
events of the war being as fresh in
his mind as if they occurred only
month ago.
Mr.. Covar was a member of the
Methodist church and was regu-
lar attendant until the weight Of
years bore heavily upon him. To
his pastor, Rev. j. R. Walker who
visited him frequently in his last
illness, be spek's of his readiness to
pass through fhe Valley of the
Shadow of Death. Mr.. Covar was
buried from the Methodist church
Friday morning, Rev. j. r. Wal
ker being assisted In ..the funeral
service by DR.. Jones and Rev. R.
G.. Shannonhouse. Unfurled near
the altar of the church was the old
time-worn. batt1e-scarred flag which
Mr.. Covar so bravely carried in the
war as color corporal of his compa-
ny. He loved the old dag as tender
ly as ne did the members of his
home circle. and it was peculiarly
fitting that it should have a place in
paying the last tribute to this faith
ful and brave Confederate veteran.
The interlnent took place in the
village cemetery at noon Friday.
+ Mr. Covar leaves. one son, lMr.
w. R. Covar, and two sisters, Mrs.
Emeline Cartridge and Miss Sudie
Covar.

wonderful hold on the public The groupings of the various scenes, the training of the participants and the realisms of the episodes are marvel ous. The cleverness and lack of fickering, almost makes the spectator forget it is not living, throbbing life that is being viewed.
 The scenes portraying the assas- sination of Lincoln are in many re- spects the most wonderful. In New York the spectacle created sensa- ton just as it has in Boston, not only from the interesting nature of the subject but the manner in which it is presented. Various novelties are introduced on the stage in conjunc- ton with the production and a Sym phony Orchestra of twenty men offer a musical backing for the masterpiece that makes it triply effective.
 A small army of effect workers are employed on the stage, under the di- rection of one man who by a system of red and green lights signals the different men when to start and just when to stop any given effect.
