MIR. George Adams Ham.

While we have not learned from
our ownlpalate, yet it is said that
wine improves with age. But we
never knew before that ham belong
ed in the class with wine. At the
Golfers picnic Saturday, Nj. Geo.
Adams. whose generous hospitality
is equalled only by the length of
his tongue, gave us some ham which
he said was two years old and it has
evidently improved with age. Its
delicious flavor could not be excell-
ed. We do not know whether they
raise Berkshires, Durocs, Poland
Chinas, Tamworths, Essex, or the
old-time razor-backs," but we do
put Golfers against the universe for
raising, curing, cooking and serving
ham.

Very Interesting Letter From
l1ardY's Section.

Editor The Advertiser: AS we
never see any items from the Har-
dy's section, thought to give, a
little of the doings and goings OF
our neighborhood, right next
door to Hardy's church is the Merl-
wether Agricultural Hall, or Coun-
try Club. where we have such grand
barbecues, see all our friends and
enjoy the entire day from start to
finish, with the hospitable club
members and honary members of
this club. Friday l6, was their an
nual barbecue, and although they
had no dancing as they have here
tofore, the attendance was pretty
good and every one enjoyed the
day very much.
The protracted meeting at Sweet
water, which had been going on
from second Sunday with good at
tendance gained four members,
Mrs. Alvin Stevens, Miss Beatrice
Stevens, Mrs. Carpenter and Miss
Anderson, closed on Friday 18th.
Miss Fannie Glover passed away
Sunday morning 18th, after an i'll
ness of two weeks. She leaves two
brothers, Mr.. Charlie and Mr.. Toll
Glover 10 mourn her loss, also
three nieces and one nephew. One
by one, they are passing on to the
Great beyond. So many have gone
from our neighborhood within the
past two years. And we know not
who will be the next to answer the
call, Come Home!
The ladies met at Hardy's for
their missionary meeting last Thurs
day, very small attendance we are
sorry to say. Mrs. T. ]. Briggs,
president, Mrs. Earnest Cogburn,
Miss Georgia Reese, Miss Mary
Tewnes, Miss Lila Bunch and Miss
Emma Bunch. The ladies hope to
get some of the missionary leaders
to give an address at Hardys, du-
ring the protracted meeting, be-
ginning srd Sunday in August, and
hope to get the parents and chill
dren interested to organize sun
beam society. There are SO few
children, and they are SO small and
t.mid, very much fear that will
be hard to do in the community.
Mrs. t. J. Briggs has her sister
in-law visiting her, Mrs. John Get.

Visitors Honored.

the young ladies and gentlemen of
the town on Friday night in honor
of her nieces, Mrs. S. A.. Burns and

ample room for the guests to play
various sorts of out door games.
After this the progressive conversa-

the exercise of the games. Delicious
cream an6 cake were served. Though
a short distance from town, 1t was a
pleasure instead of an Inconvenience,
to ride out, for the night was beau
tiful. The guests left about eleven
thirty, having enjoyed the occasion
and being pleased 10 meet two more
of >Edgefeld's many visitors.

Medal Contest Closes.

Yesterday afternoon the contest
of the blues and yellows came to a
close, when the captains, Mrs. w.
E. Lott and Mrs. E. J. Norris, en-
tertained all the membership and
the new members. Stand up for
prohibition" was sung and prayer
led by Mrs. Pendleton Jones.
The program began with the
medal winning song Father dear
father, come home with me now,"
by little Daisy Smith. This was
beautiful and touching song by
dear little girl, and many eyes were
filled with tears as she concluded.
Miss Ouida Pattison gave the
medal winning selection, "Old
soapy" which was greatly enjoyed.
William Jones sang Youths
victory" and won hearty applause,
as he always does when he sings.
Miss Helen Marsh gave her med
al winning selection, why l sign
ed the pledge" and all the large
number of ladies present enjoyed
and applauded this beautiful Sc
lection so well said by such sweet
and winning little girl.
Miss Mildred Glover of Bates.
burg played an instrumental selec-
ton from II Trovatore which added
novelty to the occasion. At this
time little jamie Edwards entered
bearing in her arms a pie, the 4
and 20 black bird kind.'' and there
were whole birds of yellow and
black for everybody to have one.
On each bird was question which
had to be answered. Ten minutes
was given for finding the answers
which were pinned on blue birds
wings, many of which had alighted
on the curtains and pictures and in
all sorts of places, and had been
there all the time, enjoying the pro-
gram. But all these were captured
and the blue and yellow birds were
tied together with that bond of un.
ion and comradeship, the white rib
bon bow.
There were fifty-three questions
about the w. G.. T. U. asked and
answered, but the most important
ones were the questions about the
membership contest. When the
count was taken as to the number
of new members, strange to relate,
each side had exactly the same mum
Der, eleven each, and % names were
added. These were most cordially
and affectionately welcomed. That
beautiful old song, Listen to the
mocking Bird" was sung by Mrs.
Ida Sheppard and Mrs. w. S. Cog
burn. The w. G. T. U. benediction
was repeated in concert, and after
the excitement of managing so many
birds everybody was invited to the
dining room and served most bonn
tifully to peach cream and cake.

leaving delightful fruit nectar wac
served by Misses Ouida Pattison
