LAKE CITY NEWS ITEMS.
Many of Her Citizens Attended
Williamsburg Fair.

Special to The County Record.
Lake City. October 26:---A large
number of Lake City folk went over
to Kingstree in cars and on the train
to enjoy the first Williamsburg
County Fair. The exhibits of farm
products, the various booths of lead
ing merchants in kingstree, fancy
work booths, tomato club booths
and flowers all spoke well for the
progressiveness of our neighbor coun-
| ty. To the visitor the fair seemed
to be a success, and the crowd not
only seemed orderly. but were hav-
ing a good time as well.
Mrs Joe M Eaddy. who lives on
North Williamsburg avenue, should
have had her chrysanthemums on
exhibit at the fair---lovely full blown
ones two weeks ago! Her yellow
ones have grown on a stalk nine feet
high and easily measure eight inches
in diameter. These are the love-
liest ever grown at this season in
Lake City and Mrs Eaddy is justly
proud of her garden. To Mrs r F
Joyner is credited the tallest dahlias
in town---the stalks measuring twelve
feet, while Mr. J M Sturgeon holds
the record for blooming of the same
variety, as there are twenty perfect
buds IN full bloom on the same stalk.
Miss Mayme Green was in King

from this place last Wednesday.
Quite a lot of string beans are be-

Just after the crowning of the
Beauty Queen. Mr. Cooper has
many friends in this section, and his
address was listened to with marked
attention by a large audience. Dur
ing the campaign of 1914. when Mr.
Cooper was a candidate for Govern
or. he did not speak in Kingstree, on
account of the death of his wife.
Every feature of the fair was a
grand success, despite unfavorable
weather. Crowds from the country
were in attendance each day, and
from a financial standpoint the re-
suit has exceeded the hopes Of those
most interested, and everybody feels
that this new feature of the county's 8
progress and usefulness has been
we'll and permanently established.
Preparations for a bigger and grand
er fair in 1916 have already begun,
and concessions for booths have been
requested.
There were present not only peo-
ple from Williamsburg county, but
each of our neighbor counties. Clar-
endon, Berkeley, Florence, George
town and Marion, was well repre-
sented by citizens who spoke in high
est terms of the great enterprise and
progress of our people.
In our write-up last week of the
attractive booths of local firms in
the administration building we mad
vertently omitted mention of that
of Messrs Jacobs & Scott on the left
center and that of the Williamsburg
Hardware Co on the right center.
The display of agricultural imple-
ments and farm machinery by the
latter concern was highly in keeping
with the enterprise of its members
and the general object of the fair
that of showing our farmers what
can be done in Williamsburg and the
means for doing it.
The booth of Messrs Jacobs &
Scott was not only attractive for its
decorations, because this feature was
only secondary to the splendid dis
play of fancy groceries and confec-
tioneries exhibited from their gener-
al line.
The booth, too, of the school chill
dren under ID years of age present
ed an exhibit that was at once inter-
esting and attractive. 1t contained
a varied list of articles, each one of
which represented the skill and in
genuity of some little Williamsburg
boy or girl.
In reporting finally on this great
event in Williamsburg-a dispensary
county-it would be incomplete
without mentioning the fact that not
a single case of intoxication was
noted on the fair grounds during
the four days exhibit and not an ar
rest made by the police. Citizens
loud in their praise of the good con-
duct on the grounds.
The display of fancy work and
household productions of sundry
kinds were, we venture to say, equal
to any exhibited in the State this
year in quality and design. Of
course there will be seen much larg-
er exhibits, but none better.
The exhibit of county-raised horses
was exceptionally good, as was also
that of cattle, swine. poultry and
dogs, as will be seen from the list of
awards in the various departments
printed on pages 2 and 8 of this pa
per.

FIRST COUNTY FAIR
GREAT SUCCESS

UIlk61 SSVSSSS
DESPITE UNFAVORABLE CpNDI-
TlONS OF WEATAER--CROWN-
ING OF QUEEN A BIG EVENT.
The Williamsburg county fair
came to a successful close Friday. 1t
was colored peoples day and. like
the three preceding days, was pro-
nounced q great success, notwlth-
standing the inclemency Of the wea-
ther. The colored schools OF the
county were we'll represented, as
we'll as the other elements of the
race in this community. Their ex-
hibit of farm products was very
good and the best specimen of coun-
ty.erown rice, which has almost ceas-
ed to be a product of the county,
was shown by a colored farmer.
Their exhibit of live stock was very
creditable indeed, as was also that OF
the different schools. Perfect order
prevailed throughout the day, and
not a single arrest was made bv the
police.
The climax to this splendid occa-
sion came Thursday, Educational
day., when over three thousand peo-
ple. men, women and children, were
present. The grand parade, headed
by Metz's band from Charleston and
led by the elaborate 2O-foot float
upon which the Queen. Miss Ada
Brockington, and her eight maids of
honor and two little pages were
seated, was probably the greatest
feature of the day. The parade
formed at the court house and
marched to the fair grounds, where
the Queen was crowned by Mayor
WR Scott, who also presented her
with a handsome diamond set brace
let. Following the Queens float in
the parade were handsomely deco
rated floats of the eighth, ninth and
tenth grades of the Kingstree High
and Graded school. These were fol-
lowed by we'll arranged float rep
resenting the Peoples Market and
by automobiles and other vehicles.
The weather being of very threat
ening nature somewhat interfered
with the arrangement of the coun-
try schools, they being compelled to
eliminate their floats.
The maids of honor to the Queen
were Misses Selma Thorn, Jimmie
Britton, Katharine Bell, Alice Stack
ley, Lula Brockinton. Guerry Green,
Bessie Harper and Emma Cooper.
These ladies were becomingly gown
ed in white robes trimmed with gold
and silver, which was the color scheme
of the feature. TIE float was drawn
by two iron-gray horses of Mr. P 0
Arrowsmith, who occupied a seat on
the float as the Queens driver. The
little pages were Masters Flynn Gil
land and Billie" Fairey.
After the Queen had been crown
ed her float was driven around the
race track in front of the grand
stand and presented handsome ap-
pearance to the hundreds of specta-
tors.
The Queen, her maids of honor
and the two little pages carried out
this feature of Thursdays pro-
gramme with becoming dignity and
charm.
Another interesting feature of the
day was the address of Solicitor r A
Cooper of Laurens, which took place

The Mothers Pension Law

So far In our County the law relat-
ing to mothers pension has not been
abused, but | am ad vised that inSome
counties it appears that the treasury
is in serious danger OF depletion on
account OF an apparent miScUnception
of the purpose of this law, and to the
end that u authorities may nou be
compelled to further assume the re-
spOnsibility OF passing upon claims Of
misg uided people and also to protect
the FUNDS which our tax payers con-
tribute as a license TO own property.
it might be we'll TO call attention to
the purport OF this mothers pension
law.
This law was " intended as a
premium upon bringing children into
this world Dy persons who had no i'll
tent or prospect Of providing their OF
spring with a livelihood, nor was IL
intended hat it Should reiease the
parents OF The known protecting which
they owe in the shape OF insurance
against possible accidents.
To speak plainly, the mothers pen
sion law was enacted solely To place a
milder term on a certain class who
find it necessary to resort to the pub
lie poor fund to sustain themselves.
This is lot meant TO reflect in any
manner upon those untortunates, and
