THE NEWBERRY ELKS WILL
OBSERVE FLAG DAY

serve Flag Day with appropriate SER
vices in accordance with the ritual of
the order. 1t so happens that this
year Flag Day and the regular meet

one and the same day. This (Thurs-

ternity hall building in front of the
Newberry hotel and the rooms have
been put in such order as 1t has been
possible in the short time in order

it is the desire of the exalted ruler,
E. H. Aull, with the cooperation of
the membership to rehabilitate the
lodge and to have nice quarters with
reading room for the members and
to that end the two rooms on the
front of the second floor of the Fra

members in the order now very soon.
A nice program for the Flag Day
exercises has been arranged and the

flag and that its history should be
known. The lodge will carry out the
ritual laid down by the order for the
observance of this day as we'll as it
can and invites the friends in the
city to join in this celebration and to
enjoy the exercises.
The exercises will begin promptly
at $3.50 o'clock, and as that hour is
named it means just what it says.
There will be an address by DR.. Jas.
P. Kinard and a recitation by Miss
Annie Dunstan and good music under
the direction of Miss Maize Domi-
nick and Miss Pauline Glider and the

Rl.ACHFD CLOSE TO
TEE Ss0O,00O MARK

Newberry has done well IN the mat
ter OF the sale of the Liberty Bonds.
Her citizens got busy within the last
few days and went out and explained
the bonds to the people and they re-
sponded nobly and patriotically to the
call. Two meetings We're held in the
court house during the week, one on
Tuesday afternoon and another on
Wednesday afternoon at which sew
eral patriotic speeches were made and
the necessity of the people buying the
bonds explained to the people and
they responded to the call.
~ Committees went out to the peoole
and told them about the bonds ana
the people bought One party drove
out and walked the people up at night
and sold bonds to them, the commit
tee getting back is the city about two
d. m.
The total amount sold was $751;
$4,000, and apart from about $780,
100000 taken by the cotton mills and
the banks the bonds were solo IN
snail denominations to the people,
Just what this issue was intended for.
The total assessment for NeWberry
mpunty or the amount apportioned to
&e- county to be sold was S13O,00O.OO.
80 Newberry county came across with
40 per cent. more than her share.
Good for Newberry. But then we can
always be depended on to 90 our
share in any good work.
