Woman's Meeting at Mountain
Creek.

Creek.
Edeefeld association has churches,
not only in old Edge6eld, but in
portions of the old mother county
now situated in Greenwood, Nc
Cormick and Aiken counties, the
only link now holding together the
old and the new. On Sunday it
was great pleasure for the socie-
ties of the First division, including
Berea. Bethany, Bold Springs, Edge
field, Gilgal, Little Stevens creek
and Mt. creek to have the op
portunity to come together and give
a resume of the work done since
our annual meeting at Gilgal in
August. All these societies were
not represented, but those that
were, we are sure, found inspiration
to continue the good work which
they had begun.
This division meeting is new
idea, but bids fair to be great aid
in promoting the work.
Mrs. B. N. Talbert of Bethany
society is division president, and
has been a very enthusiastic leade
of these societies.
On Sunday Mrs. Talbert presided
over the meeting and Mrs. Y. M.
Faulkner local president also sat on
the rostrum.
The societies were called and a
goodly number were heard from
with encouraging reports. Discus
sions on the problems of enlistment,
of country societies, etc., were dis
cussed by Mrs. Mamie N. Tillman,
Mrs. Bessie Andrews, Mrs. j. l..
Minis, Mrs. Faulkner and Mrs. Tai
bert.
There was a large crowd in at
tendance, one whole side of the
church being occupied by men.
Mrs. Faulkner made very help
full talk on Prayer, and the meeting
adjourned for recess and dinner.
This was royal spread and every
body was impressed that the women
of Mt. Greek were good cooks as
we'll as efficient and enthusiastic mis-
sionary workers.
At the afternoon session the Sun
beams opened the exercises with a
beautiful chorus, and this was fol-
lowed by splendid programme by
the Young Womans Auxiliary un-
der the leadership of Mrs. T. NJ.
Arlington. Mrs. T. M. and Mrs. j..
D. Arlington are daughters of Mr..
Charles Roberts, known as Charlie
in Edgefeld in the days long gone
by, now an honored resident of
Ninety.Six, and these two ladies are
entering into the heritage of their
forefathers of old Edgefield who
were among the best and saintliest,
associated with the Gwaltney and
Sans families Of sainted memory.
The young ladies who took part
in the Y. w. A. exercises spoke so
distinctly that every one could hear
and enjoy the representation of the
various missionaries on the home
and foreign field.
Mrs. Tillman made an excellent
and delightful report of the recent
Orangeburg convention, which she
attended as vice-president of the
Western Division, after which the
pastor of the church Rev. Mir.
Wells made a splendid talk of en-
couragement to the women.
The next meeting of the First
Division will be held with the Bold
Spring Society in April.

Which Do You Prefer? T

It is important for reasons of health and
practical economy for every housekeeper
to ask herself this question:
do prefer pure baking powder like
Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from
grapes, or am willing to use baking
powder made of alum or phosphate, both
derived from mineral sources?"
The names of the ingredients printed
on the label show whether the kind you
are now using or any brand, new or old,
that may be offered is genuine cream
of tartar powder, or merely phosphate
or alum compound.
Royal Baking Powder contains no alum
nor phosphate.

DANGER on SPREAD

Continued from page one)

tarily and DR., Whitney holds him
blameless for the condition which ex-
list.
"As a matter OF fact" said the
Health officer. III was the very san
itary precautions which MIR. Griffin
employed that may have caused the
trouble. / believe the trouble has
come thru the washing OF the cows
udders with the water from the in
fected well. This well is only 80
feet from the main sewer and being
a shallow well II may have received
the infection from the sewer. This Is
possible and is a condition over which
Mr.. Griffin had no control. lie did
not know the water was eontamin-
ated. In voluntarily closing his
dairy he did all that a man could do
to protect the city.
1T is possible that the oOntamina-
tion was spread because of the sani-
tary manner in which Mr., Griffin has
had the udders of his cows washed
before milking. a few drops could
thus easily get into the milk, despite
the fact that all the bottles and milk
containers were constantly serilized
he milk would still carry the germs
secured at the time of milking.
"As yet we have had no reports
from the city water aud other sam
Piles sent ior analysis and the suppO-
sitioa must be accepted that they are
alright or we would have heard from
them. II those taking care of pa
tients are careful, / believe there
will be no further spread unless il
be among people already affected
but every precaution should still be
practiced."

at Caldwell last Friday afternoon.
The final score was to 6 In favor
OF the ldahoans.
As the score indicates the teams
were evenly matched. In fact during
the second half the locals held their
own by use OF the forward pass. In
this department OF the game MadduN

tario team and netted large portion
of the gains made.
Coach Culbertson's proteges learn
ed soon after the game started that
they were In a real battle with the
Idahoans depending almost entirely
upon old style foot ball. This was
sufficient for steady gains thru the
line. When the Idaho line held the
local plungers a change OF tactics was
tried successfully in the second quar-
ter which resulted I'm a touchdown,
on the punt out the ball was drop

the score.
