its ability to do full justice 10 the
music of the masters.

proper to remark, however. in passing
that Signors Angelo Antola, Giuseppe

Chickens Galore.

Our friend Sam Adams says that
the people of Clark's Hill will take
it as reflection on their hospitality
and capacity for entertaining if the
people, especially the delegates do
not come in large numbers to the
Woman's Missionary Union. He
has himself, he says, 700 chickens,
ready for eating, and can entertain
95 with all ease. Now, Mrs. Adams,
is chairman of the committee on
hospitality and no doubt told him
to say that, so let there be no hesi-
tation about going. 1t would be a
mercy to the people Of Clark's Hill
to help them get rid of some of the
700 chickens. -

TRENTON NEWS.
Entertainment a Success. Mrs.
Simpson Cordially Greeted.
Concert and Moonlight
Picnic.

The opening OF the DeestrlcK
Skule" an entertainment given by
Mrs. L. D. Crouch on Monday af-
ternoon was most novel and a
thoroughly enjoyed affair, as was
evidenced by the merry peais of
laughter that sounded and resound-
ed through the tall pines, the splen-
didly suited site for the skule house.
Mrs. White, the mother OF Mrs.
Crouch made, an excellent skn'e
marin but failed to establish a rule
of strict discipline with such frisky,
mischievous sl,ule girls as Earline
Morrall, Sue Wise, Dollie Moss
Minnie Moss and Inez Swearingen.
There were in all about thirty-fve
pupils to enroll and the speeches In
answer to the. roll call were rich
and original. Mrs. w. F. Roper re-
ceived a prize for the best speech
while Mrs. Black took the prize for
the best essay on a rabbit. One of
the attractions for the children was
a we'll or better say fountain, from
which flowed freely ice cold pink
lemonade. Of the many entertain,
ments Mrs. Crouch has given this
was voted the most enjoyable. 1t
was out of the ordinary and we
knew "littlts nonsense now and
then is relished by the most of
men-and ladies too. Mrs. Crouch
served delightful refreshments at
the second recess.
We are happy to know that Mrs.
Fannie Simpson, whom everybody
in this neighborhood loves, has suffi-
GENTLY recovered from her sickness
to come among us fora visit. She
is the guest of her nephew, Mr.. Geo.
Swearingen and is accompanied by
her daughter Miss Pet Simpson and
her little grandchildren, Fannie
Mae and Matte league.
A visiting belle in our midst at
present is Miss Minnie Schuler from
Elloree, the guest of Misses Eulis
Padgett and Marie4M Marsh. Picnics
and parties galore have been given
her, the two most largely attended
perhaps were those of Misses Pad
gett and Marsh.
We are delighted to know that
our young friend Miss Ruth Long
who was operated on for appendi,
citis at the University hospital, Au-
gusta, is rapidly convalescing.
The concert to be given on Fri,
day evening of this week under the
management of Prof. H. w. Scott
and his gifted wife is tbe anticipat'
ed event of the week. Johnston and
Edgefeld will lend; some of their
best talent and this combined with
