BIG MASS MEET
ING HELD
E. A. Van SickIin Endorsed
for Highway Commission.

3 =
4 A largely attended and enthusiastic
mass meeting of our citizens was held
lin Firemens hall Saturday evening.
The object of the meeting was for the
purpose Of adopting resolutions urging
Governor Alexander to re-appoint +.
/ A. Van Sicklin TO succeed himself as
member of the state highway com
mission, his term having expired this
week.
In case Mr. Van Sicklin win not
accept the reappointment the mass
meeting went on record as favoring
the appointment Of Ex-senator A. P.
Hutton Of Kellogg, shoshone county
During the last week many mass
meetings have been called throughout
northern idaho, urging the reappoint-
ment of Mr.. Van Sicklin, which proves
that the sentiment is almost unani-
nous in favor Of his reappointment.
The citizens of Idaho want no change
in the policy Of the highway commits
sion and feel that the highway pro-
gram for the state can best be carried
out by continuing in office the men
who have adopted the policy and have
thus far succeeded so splendidly in its
Inauguration.
The following resolutions were unarl-
imously adopted by the mass meeting;
Whereas, the legislature of the
state Of idaho regularly assembled in
the fourteenth session did appropriate
certain fund for the construction Of
good roads, and did specifically appor-
tion these 1isQds to certain specified
districts, and -ra
Whereas, the present highway
commission is committed to a policy
of redeeming the pledges of the legis-
lature, and
Whereas, the present commission
has in all ways and at all times acted
with view to the betterment of our
highway system, regardless Of ulterior
influences, and
Whereas, the term Of E. A. Van
Sicklin, one of the members Of the
commission, is aboutJo expire, and
Whereas, the commission as at
present constituted holds the conf
dence of the people in every part of
the state, and
Whereas, any change at this time
would only hinder and delay the work
already started; now, therefore be it
Resolved, that in order that the
good roads movement be kept free
from politics and that the high stand
ing, integrity and efficiency of the
present commission be maintained, and
in order that the governor and the
people of Idaho may show due appre-
ciation of honest patriotic service, we,
citizens Of Idaho county, in mass meet
ing assembled, desire to go on record
to the effect that we deem it impera-
tive that E. A. Van Sicklin be ap-
pointed to succeed himself as men,
Der Of the state highway commission,
and hereby respectfully request that
such appointment be made.
"Resolved that if the appointment
of Mr.. Van Sicklin is not made we
then recommend and urge the appoint
ment of Senator A. b. Hutton, of
Kellogg, Idaho"

IT THIS time of crisis in the affairs OF the Natlon
~ when at any moment may find ourselves
n forced into that have steadtastly
A. sought to avoid it is fitting that American
men and women should have the opportunity, as
enthusiastically they have the WILL to give assurance
of their loyal support to the Governmental its meas
ures uphold American rights and protect the lives
of American citizens.
1T MAY be said that public approval Of protective
measures is to be taken for granted. But what is
+ understood at home may easily be misunder-
stood abroad The great stir raised by small but
eneraetc groups whose cry is surrender is calcuat
ed to encourage new aggressions upon our National
rights. These groups hold meetings, circulate petit
tons, and wait upon the President and Congress-
while the vast body of citizens, not organized for
such atoms, remain narticulate. We may
be sure that the clanor of the disloyaand of the
misguided few who believe that perpetual yielding is
the solution of ali National difficulties heard
abroad 1t is now time that the great majority OF
Americans should speak, and that their meaning
should be 1InrniStakable.

BAPTIST CHURCH
SUNDAY SERVICES

as the United States Rightly in the
World War;" is the subject to be
discussed at the Baptist church on
next Sunday evening. The pastor
has made a close study of the causes
and currents Of this horrible war
through the three years, and of the
tendencies of governments drifting
to the abyss in the preceding de-
cades. In this hour of awful crisis
the results of that study will be
given. Patriotic songs will be sung.
Miss Fannie Stark will sing "The
Star Spangled Banner" The audi
forum will be periodically decorated
The speaker has been elected as one
of the speakers to arouse public
sentiment along patriotic and righte-
Gus lines, by the Speakers Bureau
at Washington, D. C. 1t is expected
that a capacity house will hear this
timely deliverance.
The morning subject will be: "The
Second Mile"
Hours of service: Morning, II 100
o'clock, evening, 1880 o'clock.

PATRIOTIC

George fairfield, g one-armed ne
gro farmer residing in the lower
section of Abbeville County was here
Wednesday. He was informed OF
the sale of Liberty Bonds being con
Quoted here, and promptly called at
the Farmers Bank and bought one
thousand dollars worth of bonds,
paying for them in cash.
fairfield has set not only the
white farmers, but the white people
generally, an example in patriotism
which they would do well to follow,
He has caught the spirit of the true
American before some of the others
of US who should be better Informed
and more interested in making the
Liberty Loan a success.
Will his example not stimulate
others to be a little more ~forgetful
of self and a little more appreciate
of the liberties we have enjoyed
and for which we are now fighting?

GO-TO-SUNDAY SCHOOL DAY.

Next Sunday, November 9TH, is
International "Go-to-Sunday School
Day. and the latest reports from
the Sunday School fields indicate a
probable attendance in the Sunday
Schools of North America of at least
sixteen million on that day. 1t is
said that the average attendance un-
der usual conditions is between ten
and eleven million a Sunday, and a
conservative estimate indicates from
fifty to sixty per cent, average in
crease in attendance. All denomi-
nations are working together in this
campaign, which covers North Amer
lea. Local Sunday Schools in our
community are enthusiastic over the
prospects and many Sunday Schools
r expecting to double and more
than double their usual attendance.
Last year when the day was OBJ
served, in South Carolina, it is con-
servatively estimated that there was
an increase in attendance of $4,000.
The goal for this year is 100000 in
crease in Sunday School attendance.
The slogan of the campaign: "Ev-
erybody invited, everybody welcome,
everybody come" is to be seer and
heard everywhere, and leaders of
the Sunday School are enthusiastic
over the prospects.

VOGEL'S MINSTRELS
OF PATRIOTIC NATURE
Packed House Greets First Perform,
anee; Songs and jokes Please
Goers.

Greeted by a packed house which
included all standing room, John W.
Vogel presented a minstrel perform
ance at the Academy of Music last
night which was a beftting climax
to "Patriotic Day" of the State Fair
week. Not pretending to be classed
with AL G. Field or Neil O'Brien
shows, Vogel's Minstrels gave q per:
Torrance that brought both praise
and general satisfaction from the
large audience which plainly bestow-
ed a voice of approval on this show.
Opening with g scene representing
a rainbow palace, the Ministries at
once gained the approval Of the au-
dience by the rendition of patriotic
songs. In fact, the entire perform
ance was o ia patriotic nature, with
jokes and songs bringing encore after
ncor The initial chorus, "Uncle
Sam Is Calling You," started the
applause.
Clyde Chain as conversationalist,
is very good and his manner of hand
ling the first part of the program
was just as good as any other inter-
locutor has done here. AL Tint con-
tributed a pleasing part with his
Tyrolean warbling.
One of the best features of the
minstrel was a speciality by Mack
and Miller, two English black dots,
whose jokes and dancing were of a
high order. The buck-wing dancing
by these two men was some of the
best ever eel in the city. A mix
ture Of good tumbling was included
in the dancing and brought loud ap-
pluse.
On the whole John Vogel present
ed a clean and appreciated show.
Those who did not get an apportun-
ity to attend the show last night will
have a chance tonight. The minstrel
appears again tonight.-News and
Observer, Charlotte, N. C.
Vogel's Minstrels will appear in
the Abbeville Opera House on We'd
nesday night, Oct. 81.

SNAP SHOTS Of
ABBEWLLE SCHOOL

We have begun school this year
under a new .regime-new superin-
tendent, new principal, a great many
new teachers, and a few new rules.
These rules seem very strict to the
loquacious or mischievous pupils,
since, as a little boy of the second
grade said, "One demerick ul keep
you off the Honor Roll"
Miss Allen: Ito children who were
frightened at the appearance of
some wasps in the room) "Be still,
the wasps may think your hair rib
bons are flowers"
Perrin Dargan: "Huh! No wasp
I'D ever take me for a flower"
The pupils of the fourth grade
have written letters to the children
of a fourth grade in the North tell
ing them of the growth of cotton.
They followed this up with a box
showing the plant in all it's stages.
For several days algebra students
asked to be allowed. to get their
coats just as Mr.. Lever entered the
room. After some requests of this
sort Nh. Lever remarked: "Algebra
seems to make you chilly" We may
add that it does.
How strange it seems that our
teachers eve needed any help in
their youth and never made u mis-
takes!
Literary societies have been FORM
ed in the ninth and tenth grades. The
Carolinian and The Lanier. In the
Carolinian, Helen Eakin was elected
president and Leroy Cox, secretary.
In the Lanier, Margaret Cox was
elected president and Lois Ferguson,
secretary. Several interesting meet
ings have been held in both societies.
Several grades in the school have
improved their ROOMS. Curtains and
flowers have made them more at
tractive. Many Of the grades have
pencil sharpeners, which are a great
help to the children.
While we might tolerate a person
who pronounced dictionary or MILL
merry with the accent on the first
syllable only, we think cemetery so
pronounced is entirely too fast a
word for so slow a place.
On Thursday, October IS, Miss
Florence Neuffer entertained a num-
Der of her friends at a birthday tea.
The evening was spent in listening
to musical selections by the guests
and on the victrola. Miss Mary
Greene added to our pleasure by re-
citing a beautiful poem. Each guest
found at her place a witty dinner
gram The reading of these added
much to the merriment. A de-
lightful salad curse was followed
by dessert.
