THE EASTER SERVICE.

Easter services were held in the
Methodist church last Sabbath, both
morning and evening and were at,
tended by a large and interested
congregation of people. The church
was beautifully decorated, the chan-
eel and choir rails were draPea IN
white and twined with ivy and Span
ish moss. Inside the chancel many
palms had been used with good et-
feet and at the back of the altar a
large cross made entirely of spanish
moss and decorated with pink car
nations was a beautiful and striking
feature of the decorations. Large
vases of Easter lilies were placed IN
the pulpit and gave pure and lovely
look to the whole scene.
At the night service the cantata,
"The Daughter of Jairus," by Stalner
was rendered by a select choir COM
posed of Miss Long, Miss Edith Leach
Miss Helen Edwards, Miss Lander,
Mrs. Otto Bristow, Mrs. John Har-
ris. and Messrs. w. E. Hill, Jas: s.
Cochran, w. D. Wilkinson and Mr..
Saunders. Mrs. w. E. johnson
presided at the organ. The whole
cantata was we'll rendered and pleas
ed the immense audience present.
Miss Long has been training the SIN,
gers for some time and was rewarded
with complete success.

THE HOME TOWN.

Some folks leave home for money
And some leave home for fame,
Some seek skies always sunny,
And some depart in shame.
I care not what the reason,
Men travel east or west,
Or what the month or season
The home town is the best.
The home town is the glad town
Where something real abldes,
IT'S not the money-mad town
That all it's spirit hides. .,
Though strangers scott and tiout IL
And even jeer its name
It has a charm about it,
No other town can claim.
The hometown skies seem bluer
Than skies that stretch away,
The hometown friends seem truer
And kinder through the day,
And whether glum or CHEEKY
Light-hearted or depressed,
Or struggle-fit or weary
like the home town best.
Let him who will go wander
To distant towns to live,
Of some things I am fonder
Than all they have to give.
The gold of distant places
Could not repay me quite
For those familiar faces
That keep the home town bright.

SCHOOL TEACHERS ELECTION
VUO0R
Reinforcing Warps

At q meeting of the Board OF
Trustees of the city schools nelo ON
last Saturday evening, the following
teachers were re-elected:. 1oo,o
Misses Robertson, Eptlng, P9oie'
Perrin, Swetenberg, Britt ana Ian
der. The other teachers did not ap-
Div for reelection. 1oo-l
T. was determined by the Board
n have only one teacher at the cot
Ton mill next session. This teacher
will have charge of the first grade
nnpils in that section of the town.
All second grade pupils will go 70
the graded school. Until last year
fn,r @ Grades were taught at the mill
school. The children OF the tnlra
and fourth grades from that secnon'
during the past session, attended the
Graded school, and the result OF the
entire change has been highly grah-
fv;ne both to the trustees and the
natrons of the school from that sec
Hon and it is believed that better
results will be obtained by having an
of the second grade pupils OF tne
town taught in the graded scnooi.
Because there are number OF very
small children it was thought best TO
keen the first grade children of the
mill village in charge of teacner
at the mill, so that they would not
have such a long distance to walk.
The Board is flooded with apphca-
tions for all vacancies, but an IN
yestigation of the new teachers ap,
plying is being made except he IN she
case of Miss Phillips, who taugnt
here several years ago. She Will re-
turn and take up her work IN our our
school again. She did good work
When, she was in Abbeville before
and the Board of Trustees were glad
Of an opportunity to secure her SER
vices again.

MR.. J. B. DUKE TO SPEND
MUCH MONEY IN PIEDMONT I

That Mr.. J. B. Duke, founder of
the American Tobacco company,
president and moving spirit of the
Southern Power company and aftiliat-
ed interests, and owner of the mag
nifcent Somerville, N. j., estate,
which is one of the show places of
the country, is to build home in
Piedmont Carolina is the highly in
teresting news that has just develop
ed here. It is to be located, accord
ing to present plans, which however
are subject to change, near Great
Falls, S. c., on an island in the Ca
tawba river, where it will command
a wonderful view of three of the
largest hydroelectric developments in
the Southeast and is to be surround
ed by roads, park places and flower
gardens that will be second to none
in the country. Mr.. Duke has al
ready had rough sketch of the plans
drawn and he has gone so far as to
have Mrs. Duke visit the site in or
der to get her views on the subject.
Mr.. and Mrs. Duke and their little
daughter have been at Great Falls
Tor Cne past SeVeTdi udyS. -
This announcement is one of the
most significant that could be i'm
agined. It is not so much that a
splendid mansion and an estate pre-
eminent probably in the South is to
be provided in this section but it
indicates that Mr.. Duke is to spend
more of his time in Piedmont Caro-
lima, that he is to keep closer and
more intimately in personal touch
with the development of. this general
section and this after all is the pro-
mary consideration. Mr.. Duke is
constructive force of dynamic energy
and wherever he is something has got
to be doing. He could no more re-
tire or withdraw from active business
than he could stop breathing. 1t is
the soul of his life, indeed, his very
life to see things in motion, to plan
the work and then work the plan
and he is a man of vision sufficient
and wealth adequate to achieve any
thing. Mr.. Duke is profoundly inter-
ested Just now in promoting South
ern development and he is eager to
get little closer to his field OF ma
ior operations. Hence his determl-
nation to build down here.
The site that has been chosen IS
known locally at Great Falls as tine
Mountain Island" near the Carolina
state line. The development is estl-
mated to cost 100000.

south, to every farmer who grows
cotton at all.
This is absolutely the only road to
farm independence, to your inde-
pendence. You had better take it
now. If you disregard this injunc-
ton and plant cotton, cotton, cotton,
until there is nothing else on your
place, set it down right now that
when harvest time comes you are 60
ing to be wearing the same long face
you were in the fall of 1914. 1t
will be as bad if not worse.
If 1 knew how to make the picture
any gloomier would do it, and then
not depart in smallest degree from
the truth.
You can avoid it by cutting down
your cotton acreage and making your
own living on the farm. If you don't
do it, you are going to suffer. There
is no escape from it.

Pointed Paragraphs

No man can win success unless he
is in love with his work.
Instead of wearing a laurel wreath
the modern; poet struggles along
without haircut.
Nowadays we hear more about the
shiftless son-in-law than about the
prodigal son.
A woman has the same ambition
to get into society as man has to
keep out of jail: ~
This world wouldn't move so fast
if it depended on some people we
know to push it along. .
A needless woman is fortunate In
being able to talk without putting
herself to the trouble of thinking.

Who would have thought that the
tin can is a menace to the puol!c
health? The expert malaria investl-
gators of the U. S. Public Health
Seryice have found however that dis
earded tin cans containing rain water
are breeding places for the mosquito
which is the sole agent in spreading
malaria. A hole in the bottom OF
the empty can might have resulted in
the saving of a human life. Certain
iv it would have assisted in prevent
ING a debilitating illness. Empty tin
cans have no business about the pre-
mises anyway, but if we must so de-
corate our back yards, let's see to 1T
that the can has hole in the bottom.
