CANNING AND BREAD CLUB

The County Short Course for the
Canning Club and Bread Club girls

July 81 to August 8. In order to
get the help desired for this Short
Course the dates had to be changed
from July 24-2s, to the above dates.
Girls will be expected to come to

years, has taken State Fair prizes
on her exhibits, will be here to teach
fancy packs in canning.
Miss Pearl Napier, Of Charleston

day to teach preserve and jelly max
ing Any one who saw Miss Napier's
exhibit at the State Fair last year,
will appreciate this opportunity they
will have to take lessons from her.
Mrs. Dora Dee Walker, assistant
State Agent, will be here for one day
at least to teach pickle and catsup
making. Mrs. Walker knows every
thing about canning, but she is espe-
cially fine along this line.

be taught to can fruits and vege-
tables in tin. The girls who did the
best work last year, will assist in this.
Many other things not mentioned, :,
here, will be taught. These are just
some of the good things in store for

TILLMAN STILL IN THE RACE.

Mr.. Editor
From information which has come
to me from over the district, l find
that the report is being religiously
circulated that I am going to with
draw from the race for Congress.
The foundation for this report is
the fact that I am a member Of the
National Guard, and will, in all
probability, be ordered out for duty
in the Mexican crisis.
I am First Lieutenant of the
Greenwood Company, Coast Artil-
lery, and if the Coast Artillery is
ordered to mobilize, ! would most
assuredly respond to the call, but 1
know of nothing in the rules of the
Democratic party which disqualifies
a National Guardsman from running
in the Democratic Primary. If am
ordered out, will conduct my cam
paign as best I can by correspon-
dence and advertising, but in no
event will I withdraw from this race.
I entered it in good faith, believing
that I was fitted to serve the people
acceptably as their representative in
Washington, and I shall fight it out
to a finish. :,
I ask my friends throughout the
district to correct, this report where
ever they find it and to tell the peo-
ple that I am in this race to the
finish.
Respectfully.
H. C. TILLMAN.

vs.. AFTERTHoUGHT

Over one million dollars worth Of
firearms and ammunition were ship
ped from the United States to the
Caranza government during the first
four months of the present year, ac-
cording to a u. S. Treasury depart
ment report, in addition to at least
an equal amount smuggled over the
border to prevent tax paying. All
of which enables us to accept in a
spirit of much greater calmness the
reports of the number of dead and
wounded American soldiers coming
back across the border.

Abbeville. S. c., October 1S47.
This district is remarkable for its
intelIigence. and has been called the
cath. ms of South Carolina" Cal,

law at this court house. McDume
resides in the district. The present
limited States senator, Burt, hVes
also not very far from the court
honse. and formerly resided in the
village Judge Wardlaw lives here;
and many other men of more than
ordinary intelligence have chosen 1t
as their place of residence. AT one
time this village afforded all at once,
the governor, congressman, United
States senator, judge Of the court OF
common pleas, states attorney,
states senator; and Calhoun mas
only lately left here. So you see
they have cause to feel proud.
And here is another letter that has
interest by feason of the Mexican
S''paiSe ASSeviIle, SIeas 3. c., December 1s47.. !
By-the-by, what a war this Mexl-
can affair is! Not that Intend to pc
sentimental, or mean just now 70
view it in q political light, for /
have. almost forgotten all the little !
ever knew about politics, the ladies
here seldom trouble themselves
about such matters. They are stran-
gers to the enthusiasm and party
spirit 50 often displayed among all
ranks and both sexes in Virginia,
nearly all being united in their ad-
mirationa of, and devotion to John C..
Calhoun, and their only hopes,
wishes and plans (political) oeng
centered in him, there Is no reason
for disagreement or argument
But to return to Mexico;> ! touch
ed, upon the war merely to introduce
to YOU our gallant, brave and sufer.
inp "Palmettoes.n Many of the loved
and admired of Abbeville have fallen
upon the Mexican battlefelds, and
many have suffered most severely IN
the various hospitals there. Mrs.
,s brother is still there,
still sick; and discharged. He is ex-
pected home as soon as he shall be
able to come. Every paper nearly
that i look into is eloquent with the
glorious and fearless. deeds Of South
Cardinals sons, who were the first
to enter the great city and form
under the national banner. I was
very much opposed to the war, and
was sorry to see many whom I knew
ranked among the volunteers; but
was glad and proud to hear how no
bly they acquitted themselves.
There was a negro man who &C
companied his young master, a lieu
tenant in the company from an ad-
Joining district, who behaved 80
bravely with such distinguished cour-
age and devotion to his master, who
was killed in battle, that the young
gentleman's father has petitioned the
y legislature to allow him to emanci-
pate him.

BIRMINGHAM'S BOYS
 ON THE GLEE CLIJR

Birmingham has always contributed largely to the personnel of the Univer- sity Glee club, which will come to Bir- mingham for it's annual concert on Feb ruary 21, singing at the Southern club, the concert as usual being followed by a dance. The institution of the Giee club was due to the encouragement and the suggestions of Birmingham man, Hill Ferguson, and Birmingham has been con rributng generously to the club pro- gramme ever since.
 The Euterpean club of the Birmingham High school, the High School Glee club, continually sends men to the university with musical ideas already formed and much progress ade along the singing road. This year, srticularly, the club is wealthy in Birmingham material. One of the most popular solosisus with the club for the past three seasons is Harry J. White, who is gifted with a strong, musical basso. Jack Cozine, another Bir- mingham soloist, is an excellent baritone, and is giving pleasure over the state with his songs. Chappell Cory, Jr., has a delightfully."- sweet and pleasing tenor and he leads the chorus in one Of its most attractive numbers. Orville Coston, another good tenor, also has a leading part with one of the best programme numbers Jewel Whatley, a late addition to the tenor contingent, is making good so rapidly at Alabama that he is already substituting on the regular varsity quar- tet and Birmingham hopes to hear him when the club sings here.
 Atwell Brown is one or the srars or the mandolin and guitar section of the club and is also member of the first tenor forces Henry Fowlkes is also a strong man for the strinsed instrument section and second tenor of value. James Downey is one of the reliable baritones and Charner Batson, son Of Sheriff Bat

DRAMA LEAGUE TO
 MEET FEBRUARY 8

The next meeting of the Drama league is announced for Tuesday afternoon, Feb ruary s. Mrs. w. c. JarnaSin, president of the Atlanta center, will read "Herod'' by Stephen Phillips
 Friends and admirers of Mrs. Jarnagin say she is the most popular reader in Atlanta, and Atlanta center has some eX- cellent readers. The play is especially apropos nova revival of interest in Stephen Phillips plays having been oc- casioned by his recent death. "Herod" is a poetical drama and was acted about Six years ago by William Faversham and Julie Opp, as many will remember.
 Phillips was hailed as a successor of Tennyson. He wrote plays which had the spectacle that delights the crowd and he was able to give to the personages of that spectacle lines poetical. Those who wronsed Stephen Phillips, were those that praised his work in terms two eX- tiavasant, so great the admiration he elicited.
 The reading will be in the ballroom of the Tutwiler, and immediately following a reception will be rendered Mrs. Jarna- gin by this center, in the meZzanine par Tor. Members of Birmingham center will have this opportunity of meeting the president of the Atlanta center of the Drama League of America.
