KELTON

Kelton, Dec. 13.-We had on YES
terday snow, rain, hail and sleet and
today the sun is shining beautifully.
We have had fine fall for gathering
| crops and sowing small grain. If the
farmers have not sown much it is
their own fault. The people are get
ting ready for Christmas, which WI.
soon be here. We should celebrate it
with Joy and thankfulness, for we
have harvested good crops and re-
ceived a good price for our cotton
and cotton seed and our President and
ADVISERS have kept our country from
being involved in the great European
'Hr so far and we hope to remain out

we did over so years ago When
peace is talked of I see cotton de-

let it go. Everybody should welcome
peace and stop this awful slaughter of
human lives. May Henry Ford ant.
his peace party succeed in their great
mission! Precious lives should be far
above dollars to our people. There is
a good deal of cotton in the hands of
the farmers and if the price should
materially decline it would be a heavy
loss to them, but it would be no COM
parison to the suffering of the women,
children and soldiers in the warrinp.

There is some talk of DR.. Wheele,
moving from our midst. We hope he
will not. He is young man and has
built up good practice and has been
very successful in his calling. Stav

was talking with a man the other
day and he told me of his experience
IN crossing bridge 20 or 80 feet long
last week in one-horse wagon. He
was driving mule across the bridge
that had no banisters on the sides.
Just as the mule was near the end If
got scared or took the studs and
packed clear across the bridge. but
he managed to keep the animal
straight on the bridge or else there
might have been a serious accident
and caused a damage suit to the
county and probably cost to the
county of several hundred dollars

our commissioners would have avoid

those bridges across branches or gull

LOCKHART JUNCTION

Lockhart Junction, Dec 13.-We
have had rain, sleet and snow and
the chilly winds are very cold this
morning, but we have no right to
complain for it has been one of the
most beautiful falls that we have ever
seen. So now the cold is in its sea
son, for this is a winter month, and
it is very likely the winter month
will be cold.
Well, the old year is nearing the
end and everyone is looking forward
to Christmas. Oh, yes, this is ver
natural. This has been year of
plenty and it seems everyone has
made pretty good crop. The pea,
potato, corn, hay and all grain crops
have been fine. The cotton has been
the shortest, but the price is so much
better than it was last year. That
makes some difference and | am glad
to see that people seem to re in a
more cheerful spirit.
This writer received commission
OF appointment as a delegate from
this township from Governor Manning
to meet in Charleston this week with
the Commercial Congress to be helo
there, but had planned to go on the
special train from this place. We
found it was about 10 hours late and
we did not go as we had planned.
Last Friday evening, in company
with Professor R. C. Lake, | visited
in Union by invitation. We visited
at the home of Mr. NJ. c. Lake, where
we spent the night. We were treated
with much friendship and kind hos-
pitality was shown us by him and hic
family. We met Miss Annie Tinsley
and Miss Howe at the home of Mr..
Lake and we all spent several pleasant
hours together. Mr.. M. c.. Lake is
very interesting in his talks, being an
old Confederate Soldier. He has the
names of all the Lakes who tough,
in the Confederate army, has their
names framed and hanging on the wall
in his home where they can be seen. He
has kept up well with his family rec
ord which is very good idea.
We were at Jonesville last Monday
night. the 8th inst, to hear Hon.
Woolley and Rev. George Morrow,
field secretary of the Anti-Saloon
League of America. These men were
both forcible speakers and were very
entertaining, but so few people were
out to hear them. We have this to
say, that they missed much.
AS | sat and listened the thought
came to me that where are all the
people? Is it not the case that the
saloon or whiskey man is up on his
job? Why. he is still alive. He is
always ready to rally while the pro-
hlbitionist sits still. | don't wonder
at these things. He will live a long
time, yet until we get men that have
backbone and push about them. Don't
we need more Christian men in poll
tics? Some will say no, but I saw
we do, for when the weak rule the
people mourn.
There will be Christmas enter

IL days after February 20, 100000
persons passed through the gates
The 100000 mark was reached
November 10.
San Francisco's exposition in every
particular was an exposition of pro-
gress. All exhibits entered for award
were contemporaneous articles origi-
mated or produced since the st. Louis
exposition 10 years ago.
In the general color scheme it was
different from any effect ever at
tempted on so large a scale. The
night illumination, with subdued
lights everywhere, reflected on the
buildings also was unique. Many ex-
perts and artists, among them Thomas
A. Edison, declared the night scene
the most enhancing display of light
effects they ever had seen.
To carry out his idea of colors for
the exposition palaces Jules Guerin
director of color, took into consid-
GRAFTON the climatic and atmospheric
conditions found in San Francisco near
the Golden Gate and worked in warm
colors in an imitation of travertinp
marble. This marble was much used
in Roman palaces of the Augustan
period and it gave Guerin what has
been described as a pinkish- gray buff
surface which carried a suggestion of
warmth. This shaded off into reddish
brown sometimes, and yellow golden
orange was used extensively in en-
riching it and working out lights and
shadows. Oxidized-copper-green, for
domes and lattices, cerulean blue for
ceilings of courts, and burnt orange
for small domes and mouldings gave
an Oriental richness to the exposition,
but the whole scheme was soft and
alluring. Excepting perhaps one tow
er which was generally deplored by
architects, including, it was said, the
designer, there was nothing anywhere
to dazzle or blaze.
The decorative sculptures of the
exposition, many of which were
created for the exposition and were
OF character depicting the spirit OF,
the West or life on the Pacific coast.
attracted much attention. There were
more than $4,000 individual pieces of
sculpture or groups placed at various
points about the grounds.
Ihirty-nine men and women of
recognized ability at home and abroad
contributed as sculptors. The late
Karl Bitter, killed in New York in an
automobile accident, soon after the op-
ening of the exposition, was in charge
OF this department, with A. Stirling
Calder as acting chief of the work.
The plan of the exposition sculp-
ture was designed to form a sequence
from the first piece that greeted the
visitor on his entrance from the city,
throughout the five interior courts and
the circuit of inclosing walls. Two of
the most imposing works were the
groups of Nations of the West" and
ne Nations of the East" which
faced each other 100 feet above
the sunken gardens of the "Court of
the Universe" Everywhere the idea
OF the achievement of the building of
the Panama canal was embodied.
