NATIONAL BABY WEEK.

The observance of National Baby
week in Abbeville last week was a
success in every way. The program
for the week was arranged by Mrs.
D. A. Rogers of the Health Commit
tee of the Civic Club, and consisted
of conferences held in the home of
Mrs. J. V. Elgin, Mrs Martha Bowen,
Mrs. Henry Gillian, Mrs. w. r. Brad
ley, Mrs. w. G. Stephens, Mrs. W. E
Johnson, Mrs. w. A. Calvert, Mrs.
M. T. Coleman, Mrs. Rogers, and at
the mill school house. There was
much talk of the best method of car
ing for children and many helpful
articles were read from magazines.
All these meetings were especially
we'll attended considering the bad
weather.
Thursday afternoon at the Civic
Club rooms DR.. J. E. Pressly and DR.
G. A. Neuffer talked to the large
crowd of ladies present about the
/ "Physical Welfare of the Child"
Both these talks were instructive and
entertaining and the many questions
asked by the ladies created feeling
of comradeship among all present.
Friday afternoon the meeting was
devoted to the discussion of the
"Moral Welfare of the Child" and
papers were read by Mrs. W. o. Gro
mer, Mrs. M. T Coleman and Mrs.
]. L. Mcmillan. These papers treat
ed the subject from the standpoint
of the generally improved condition
of children in the schools
and as to their recreation. Rev. M.
R. Plaxco opened the meeting with
prayer and every seat in the room
was taken.
At three o'clock on Friday after
noon a parade was held, the children
meeting at the plaza, forming in line
and marching around the square. On
account of the wind there were only
seventy babies in the parade. There
were many health banners on the
different carriages and the little girls
carried banners of purple and gold
bearing inscriptions on health while
the boys carried placards around
their necks. After the parade the
little fellows were taken into the
picture show where all who were in
the parade were admitted free. This
parade was in charge of Mrs. c. c.
Gambrell and was well carried out.
On Sunday all the ministers in
town preached sermons on the "Spir-
itual Welfare of the Child" The
churches were full and the sermons
were enjoyed.
Many of the merchants took an
interest in the week and decorated
their windows in things pertaining
to the care of children. The win
dows were beautiful and elected
much pleasant comment.
Baby week was something new for
Abbeville but from now on it will
be the custom. 1t was enjoyable
and profitable and the success of the
whole entertainment was due to the
careful planning of Mrs. Rogers.

CHILD LOSES LIFE
IN BURNING BUILDING
DAUGHTER OF MIR. AND MRS. J. K
RICHARDS BURNS TO DEATH.
Child Left Asleep in Building: Parents
Discover Fire too Late to Save In
fant: Wind Prevents Entrance
to Burning Building.

One of the most horrible and de-
plorable accidents which ever took
place in Haywood county occurred
Wednesday morning about 10:30
o'clock, when the two-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. K Richards lost
her life in the flames which consumed
their residence two miles east Of
Brownsville.
Mrs. Richards had put the child to
sleep in the hall of their little cottage
and had gone to the barn, about a
hundred yards away TO assist her hus-
band in the hanging of door. While
engaged in this work they heard
roaring sound and upon looking to-
ward the house, discovered that it
was in flames. When they reached
the cottage they found it glutted with
flames to such an extent that it was
impossible to rescue the child. An
east wind was blowing, which aggra-
waited the flames.
Friends and neighbors were noti-
fled and within few hours the body
of the child was recovered.
Mrs. Richards stated that she had
been gone from the house not more
than five minutes when the fire was
discovered. 1t is supposed that the
fire started before she left the house
but that it had not gained enough
headway to attract attention.
