arm of their handsome bridegroom
to the strains of Mendelssohn's we'd
ding march, beautifully rendered
by Miss Essie Bussey.
During the ceremony Miss Bus
sey played "Humoreske" very soft
ly. Immediately after the ceremony
the brides and grooms and a few
relatives and friends of Mr.and Mrs.
Bowie drove over to Mr.. Walls, the
home of Mrs. Bowie, to partake OF
a wedding feast which of course
was greatly enjoyed by all.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bowie left on the
following day (Monday) for Don
AIDS, S. c., where they will make
their future home.
Mr.. Bowie is prosperous young
farmer OF Abbevilie county.
Mrs. Bowie, nee Miss Walls, was
one of White Towns most popular
young ladies. She will be greatly
missed in the community.
We wish for these young people
pie long and happy life.

Miss Cain Closes School. Ap-
propriase Addresses. Boun-
tiful Dinner Served. Sick
ness in Community.

Will you allow me just little
spacesin your valuable paper to tell
of few happenings in our neigh
borhood.
The first and most important
thing@is our farmers. They are need
ing rain so badly. Cotton and corn
have Just peeped out and can't go
auy farther without rain. The oats
have despaired and are now head
ing out.
Last Friday our school closed,
after being taught seven months
term by Miss Ruth Cain. She was
assisted by the trustees in giving a
picnic, which was enjoyed by all.
We were glad to see so many of our
friends come from Edgefeld, Tren-
ton. Johnston, Golfers, Red Hill
AND Ropers. We had two very fine
talks from Senator B. E. Nicholson
and w. w. Fuller. Mr.. Fuller is
Very much interested in the educa'
ting Of the children. He also wants
10 see the school have grounds
improved so as to be attractive to
.he children. He said the county
would appropriate one hundred dol
lars (slOO) and the Legislature one
hundred (slo0) toward the work, so
we hope to soon see the trustees get
busy.
Senator Nicholson spoke of how
anxious be was to see the day come
when every man would own his
own home. After being held for
an hour by the good speakers we
were invited to dinner, and we must
say there are not words IN the
English language that would give
due credit to the grand feast spread
before us, and the hundreds of gal
Ions of ice lemonade. We had a
few candidates with US to shake
our hands.
we are sorry to know that some
men violated the law SO much as
to bringa buggy load of whiskey
to oui4 a,nicsto sell. .'s-
We hope the trustees will be able
to persuade Miss Cain 10 return and
teach next term, for we all liked
her and hated to see her go. A
certain young man has had an at
tack of heart trouble since her de-
parture and can't eat. He says the
only thing that he can relish is
sugar Cain (cane.)
We are all grieved to learn of
the illness of that sweet and anna
BILE girl Miss Lila Roper, and hope
she will soon be able to return to
her school.
Mrs. J. N. Fair is also on the
sick list. She is very much missed
by every one as she mas a smile and
kind word for everybody.
Miss Sallie May Miller is spend
ing few days at the home of Mr.
and Mrs S B Mays.
Mrs Carrie Mays spent Thursday
nis hit al Oak Grove.
Mrs p L. Ryan is spending a few
days with relatives in Graniteville.
Miss Elizabeth Wells spent Sat
urday and Sunday in Edgeheld with
her grand parents.
Mr. Warren Fair is very anxious
to know what has become of all the
girls. Have they forgotten this Is
leap-year. He is still waiting, so
come along girls. You are letting
your goldeniopportunity of Life slip
by.
We hear that Mrs G A Wells is
soon to have telephone put IN. MIR
Wells says if she talks any more
after she gets the phone he can't
stay in the house. Mr. Wells is also
having water-works put in.

before in the bloom of life and health.
1t was Herbert's custom to accomp-
any his father to Audubon each Sun
day, but for some unknown reason
he remained at home. Why this
distressing accident should have be-
fallen the child, no one knows, and it
is not for us to question or Judge. No
blame is placed on anyone, for it is
only another one of those mysterious
things that frequently occurr. The
Ulerich family feel the sting of death
as keenly as do the parents of the
boy.
The heartfelt sympathy of the en-
tire community go out to Rev. Starck
and family in this most crushing
hour of grief. None but those who
sat in the shadow of a great bereave-
meHt canjustly weight such a sorrow
as this. Those who have gone down
into the valley of suffering and stood
by the side of loved one, as hope
after hope dropped away as the petals
fall from fading flower, know that
such anguish cannot find solace in the
tenderest words. Only the memory
of the lovely boy is left, yet how sweet
and uplifting its influence.
Funeral services will be held
Thursday afternoon at 900 D. M,
from the German Lutheran church in

A CONDIENDABLE PURPOSE

State Supt. A. NJ. Deyoe is setting

In THE FALL

In the fall tired fathers fancy grave
ly turns to thoughts of coal, and he
sheds nine kinds of briny as he sizes
up his roll. He has thirty-seven dol
lars-two of them are plugged with
zinc-and the outlook for the winter
is extremely on the blink. And he
hears the children clamor for a lot of
winter buds, and his wife makes req
uisition for some bacon and some
spuds; and his lovely grownup daugh-
ter, wants no poverty in her's-she
must have a stylish bonnet and cost
ly set of furs, and the son will need
some money as he studies for the bar;
thirty-seven hard earned dollars
won't take father very far Father
has so many problems that his hair
has fallen out, yet it's safe to bet a
pocketbook on that patient, daunt-
less scout. Somehow he will buy the
bacon, somehow he'll provide the
spuds. Susan Jane will have her sab
les, and the kids will have their buds;
therein be coal to feed the furnace,
thereIl be comfort in the shack, while
tired father fights his battle with
eight stitches in his back.
