Miss Minerva and WilliamGreen
HiIl' Coming.

Now there are coming to our
town some very distinguished
guests!
First of all we know what great
power, boy Scouts" have become
and how much use thev are in these
troublous times. The Boy Scouts"
of North Augusta are coming over
Friday afternoon in Automobiles,
and they are coming because they
nee1 funds to carry on their work,
and primarily to make us laugh,
and they will do it too, if we are
in the Opera House Friday evening
from $50 to 10 o'clock.
Now turn about is fair play, 80
if they come all the way from
North Augusta in automobiles to
make US laugh, we must be there to
make them laugh, for they will
laugh if we are there.
Half of the profits will go to the
Edgefeld w. c. T. u, so they will
also be smiling if you are there, and
everybody will be smiling.
Don't you want to go where
everybody is wreathed in smiles?
This is not all. The boy Scouts"
will bring Miss Minerva and Will
lam Green Hill with them, and
there are no more celebrated person
ages in these United States Of
America than are these two.
Still another celebrity is Rev.
Hamlin Etheredge, pastor Of the
North Augusta Methodist church
who is an Edgefeld county boy, a
prophet who must not be without
honor in his own county.
Mr.. Etheredge is widely travelled
and is leader Of the North Augusta
"Boy Scouts and he has dramatic
ed that wonderfully humorous book
"Miss Minerva and William Green
Hip and the play has been given a
number of times in their own town
and recently at Trenton and Johns
ston, where large audiences heard
them.
Another coming celebrity, one of
the boy Scouts" an Edgefeld boy
and the son of Mr.. Philip Markert
whom many Edgefeld people know
and honor is Anton Markert, one of
the characters in this play.
Come out Friday night and en-
courage the boy Scouts" of North
Augusta and the w. @. T. u, and
laugh and grow fat.''

the ladies of Rehoboth had prepared
a magnificent dinner.
1t was a matter of regret that the
division president, Mrs. Julia Pres
colt, was detained on account of i'll
ness in the family. Mrs. Prescott,
with her accustomed generosity, had
planned to convey some of the rep.
resentatives from Red Hill and
others in her car, but when she
found that she could not attend Sc.

financial obligations will be met.
The division was highly honored
in having among them Rev. T. b.
Lanham, most of whose churches
were in the second division.
Mrs. Tillman and Rev. T. b.
Lanham made talks on Edlsto Acad-
emy.
A very comprehensive and inter
esting Sunbeam talk was made by
Mrs. Tillman, very practical and
helpful.
One of the very best numbers on
the programme was Mrs. Whatley's
report of the Western Division In
stitute at Greenwood. Every one
expressed themselves as delighted
with this splendid account.
Miss Emmie Lanham, Y. w. A.
superinteudent for Edgefeld associa.
tion, made very inspiring appeal
for the greater success Of the work
in which she is 80 much interested.
After the dinner hour, a very
pleasing feature of the programme
was recitation by James Strom,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Strom.
Mrs. Young made practical talk
on the Standard of Excellence, and

Sander. in- dicted for engaging in a military en. terprise against power with which the United States is al peace. in car rying on which they sent spies 10 England to obtain information for Germany.
 One of the causes, it was said. was when, what appeared to be blank papers were treated with chemical tablets dissolved in vinegar. the au- thorities found, they say. secret writ. ing in German.
 The second cause was believed to be the fact that a letter. which one Of the defendants sent to a friend ad- hitting they had him right" came into the possession of the government. While the decision of Wunnenberg and Sander not to stand trial has stopped for the time a full exposure of their plot, it is probable, it was said, that some of their agents who are detained in neutral European countries may be sent back here for trial

RIGHT TO BE HAPPY IS SHOWN AT EAGLE
 THEATRE TODAY

Ebenezer Scrooge was the meanest man in London, For years he had made stocks, bonds and banknotes his religion There was not an ounce of charitableness in his system; his heart was steel and his voice metallic as he snarled and parked at every man. woman or child he came in con tact with. Christmas was his special abhorrence-he would have none of the cheer and good will of Yuletide He lived alone. walked alone and ev- eTybody who knew him was mighty glad to leave him alone. Charles Dickens, of his wonderful imagination created this man as the moving char acter in "A Christmas Carol" and Bluebird Photoplays assigned Rupert Julian to play the character in the screen version of the Dickens classic that is to be exhibited at the Eagle Theatre today under the caption of 'The Right to Be Happy" Because the lessons and usefulness of "A Christmas Carol" endure from day to day the year round, the producers of the screen version decided that it would be better to apply a generally serviceable title to the work-and consequently "The Right to Be Hap py' was selected as especially appro- priate.
