Great children's Mass Meeting
Sunday, $3.50 p m, in which the pas
tors, Sunday School superintendents
teachers and pupils of all our church
es will cooperate, will be. held with
the hope of saving the children by
wholesale. The difficulty which
Christian workers experience in win
ming the grown-ups for Christ, not to
say keeping them in Christ, Is fore
ing the Christian world to the con
clusion that saving the children is
not only the easiest way. but the
most effective way of saving the
world In view of this fact, we call
upon every father and muthar who
has an unsaved child to bring him tn
this meeting tomorrow afternoon and
let us help him into a better life.
In our Easter rally, the Blues, un.
der the leadership of Mrs. Matte P.

almost 800.
Mrs. R. L. Pope, who has been on
an extended visit to Florida and
other points, is expected to return to
the city, accompanied by Mrs. Eliza
beth Crane, her mother, Friday OF

and our congregation rejoices to have
his better half return with her health
greatly improved.
A well arranged program is out an
nouncing one day institute to be
held at Shorter Thursday of next
week. Being held just at the time
when the whiskey forces are seeking
to have set aside the prohibition en-
actment, should give this meeting
special significance. The meeting
opens at 10 a. m.

program. Special music for the oc-
casion has been ordered and is In

The singers advertising Tuskegee
Institute appeared at Zion last Thurs
day night and rendered a magnificent
programme. The audience was more
than delighted, as these young men
are masters in the art of singing and
entertaining. Several concerts in the
leading white churches will do much
to make Tuskegee better known In
this section.
Mrs. F. Branton Tule, who spent
fifteen years in South Africa as a
missionary worker, gave a splendid
message at our evening service last
Sunday. Her story of wonderful ex-
periences in that land are interesting
and touching and cannot fail to move
an audience with warmer sympathy
for the needs of our fatherland. Mrs.
Tule will be heard Sunday afternoon
at 5 o'clock, at the Peoples Presby-
terian church.
The Bible Glass work will be re-
sumed after the suspension due to
the revival meetings. The men will
meet at the usual hour on Tuesday
evening and the women on Thursday
afternoon at 2:30.
The Executive Board of the West
ern Association will convene at Pu-
eblo next Tuesday with the Betnie-
hem church. All the members OF the
Board are expected to be there.
The rite of baptism will be admin
istered at the close of both the morn
ing and evening services Sunday.
The pastor hopes that every candl-
date will be ready.

Boy Met Horrible Death

Gus Foster, who lived with
Il. T.. LOoper on his farm about
tour miles west of Pickens, met
"a horrible death early Friday
morning. The boy had lust
started to the field to begin the
days plowing and on the way
stopped the mule which he was
riding to talk to a friend in a
buggy. While they were talk
ing the mule in some way be-
came frightened and made a
plunge forward, throwing the
boy over his head and catching
his foot in the plowing trace.
The mule ran about mile and
finally ran back into the yard of
the owner. The body of young
Foster was still dangling at the
trace, mutilated almost beyond
recognition, and one leg had
been torn entirely from his body.
1t was later found in the road.
The dead boy was formerly an
lnmate;of the county poor house.
but Mr.. Looper had taken him
out and was raising him. He
was about fourteen years old
and was a good, honest, hard
working boy and his untimely
death has cast a pail of gloom
over the entire section where he
was known.

Ill for two weeks, and while his
friends hoped for his recover,

encouragement and he gradually
grew worse until the emu came
An operation was performed
some days before his death,
which gave temporary relief,
blt in the end was unavailing.
His death was caused by dis
eased kidneys.
Mr.. Baker had always been
stout, active and vigorous. He
vas unassuming. quiet and mod
est. BY careful and prudent
management he had accumu.
lated considerable property and
vas always just and fair in his
dealings and upright in his de
meanor. He had large circle
'f friends, as was attested by the
great concourse which attended
his funeral and burial. At the
lme Of his death he was in his
54th year, and during those short
ears has lived so as to make
rlends with all whom he came
IN contact.
1t had been generally thought
by nearly all his friends that he
was a member of the church and
many did not know otherwise
Until few days before his death,
When he made it known that he
nad surrendered his heart to
Jesus Christ, had repented of his
sins, was trusting in the atoning
merits of Jesus for salvation and
wanted to unite with the Baptist
church at this place. At a meet
ing OF the church last Wednes-
day night the request was pre-
sented and on motion he was
unanimously received as a can

have been administered had he

Engagement Announced

The Easley correspondent of the
the Greenville News says.
The pleasant social event given by
Mrs. j. Milton King at her home Friday
afternoon was Of particular interest to
those present, as the hostess announced
the engagement Of her sister-in-law,
Miss Ruth King, and Mr. Brandon
Taylor.
The affair came as complete sur
prise to the many friends of the con-
tracing parties and was received with
considerable interest. Invitations were
issued by Mrs. King to rook party and
about thirty ladies attended. Heart
shaped score cards with tiny Cupids on
them were used for the games, which
proved most exciting.
After several hours at the card tables
the guests were invited into the dining
room, where block cream, heart shaped
cakes and mints were served.
The home Of Mrs. King was made
very attractive on this occasion by the
use of pink apple blossoms, which were
used in profusion. Pink and white car
nations also occupied prominent place
in the decorations.
Just before leaving the guests were
presented with small bags Of rice, which
were opened, only to find the following
words: "This rice is to be used for
Ruth King and Brandon Taylor, June 8,
1915" The guests then rushed to the
bride-elect and showered her with the
rice which they had received.
Miss King has. always made Easley
her home and her many admirable traits
of character has won hei many friends
here, who regret that she will make hel
:,fnttireahoine elsewhere.

making a big hit in Piclxens.
This ice cream is made at Bilt-
more, N. g., the rich estate of
the late millionaire Vanderbilt.
and is shipped here by express.

cream from a herd of JERSEY
cows imported to this country
by Mr.. Vanderbilt and is said
to be the most widely sold ice
cream in the south. The ice
cream plant where it is made is
large and cream is shipped from
it all over the south. Not many
