It seems that all 16 of the guaran-
ors of the Radcliffe Entertainment had
forgotten or overlooked that they
had guaranteed the cost of the en-
tertainment and did not know any
thing about it until the first number
was announced A few of them got
together on Tuesday and decided to
get the college boys and the city
school children interested in the sale
of tickets and to make the price SO
cheap that it will oe a shame for any
one to stay away. And if there is
anything left after the payment Of
the actual cost it will go to the IL
hrary of the high school.
There are five entertainments and
they are frstclass and the first one is
omong the best and it will be on Sat
rrday night and the place is the

SECOND LIBERTY LOAN
A TEST OF PATRIOTISM.
100000 600.

T7yT
To the Patriotic Citizens of Newber-
ry:
We are preparing for a canvass in
Newberry county for loan of s413,-
900, our allotment of the loan Of
$500, 100000, that our country needs
to finance the war. The loan will be
secured by government bonds, rang
ing from $50 upward.
The amount of your subscription
will be payable:
Two per cent with application.
1S per cent on November Is, 1917
40 per cent on December Is, 1917.
40 per cent on January Is, 1918.
If you lack the cash, the banks will
let you have it at low rate of inter-
est On the first Liberty Loana,tha
government asked for S2,000,000,00
The patriotic citizens of our country
subscribed more than 100000, 900.
And there were 100000 subscribers.
The allotment for Newberry county
was largely oversubscribed.
The country is not asking us for a
gift. 1t is asking us to lend it money
at 4 per cent interest. The bonds will
be exempt from ordinary taxation.
The rate OF interest is good, and the
loan vii be perfectly safe.
While this is an offer of safe in
vestment, it is at the same time an
appeal to our patriotism. The govern
many will measure us not so much by
taxation. 1t must have the money
to equip and support our army. Ger
many will measure US not so much by
the size CT the army we raise as by
the spirit of patriotism with which we
back the army. Nothing would delight
the kaiser so much as to see this loan
fail.
If our sons are willing to- sacrifice
themselves for liberty, surely we
should be willing to make a safe in
vestment for liberty. Be ready to CO.
onerate with the committee. Fl you
have the money, make a loan to your
country. If you haven't the cash.
borrow it and make loan to your
country 1t is not your privilege to
serve in the army, but it is the priVll-
eye of every one of us to serve the
couse of liberty by supporting the
army.

ST. PHILLIPS SCHOOL
HAS FINE OPENING.


last Monday with Misses Mary Brown,
Ola Brown and Frances Caldwell as
teachers. The Misses Brown taught
the school last year and did a rne
work. Miss Caldwell is added this
year to the force. Instead of Two
teachers the school will have three.
There is a modern two-story building
erected within the last few years and
the location is admirable. In
thickly settled white community and
cne of the best sections of the coun-
ty. The attendance at the opening
was something about rs children.
When the larger children get in it
is expected that the enrolment will
reach 100.
Several of my friends and the teach
ers gave me an urgent invitation to
be present at the opening. Monday it
is difficult for me to get away from
the daily round, but 1 could not help
promising to be present. And l went.
l hooked up III and went by myself,
that is 1 left Newberry alone, but on
Saturday l sent Mother Sease word
that I would be down to her house!
bout 7:3O and get some of that fat
country chicken which she knows so
we'll how to prepare. l was little
late but she had the breakfast good
ard warm, and the chicken fried IN
home made lard was fne and the bis
cults were good. And, you bet, I en-
joyed the breakfast. Uncle Luke
Sease decided to go with me to the
opening A long time ago he was a
trustee Of the school and now his son,
Hamp, is one of the trustees and takes
great interest in the school. In
fact all the neighborhood is proud of
the school and they all take al in
terest in the good work.
The teachers and the children were
there and everything looked good and
Ieat and clean. The auditorium needs
to have some seats, but they will
come where the people take the in
terest that these good people take. II
was glad to observe that the people
are discovering the school house.
Pastor Koon was there. He serve;
the church which stands alongside
the school house And his good wife
was along with him the county-super
intendent of education was there.
Pastor Koon had charge of the open
ing exercises and We all made short
talks to the patrons and children and
gave them our assurance OF interest
in the great work which they are do
ing.
/ came back by Uncle Luke's and
got me a 20 pound shoulder of last
years killing and Mother Sease put
some nice sweet potatoes in the car,
and I was back at the Office in New
berry before II O'Clock.

tions from the good little teachers ii

There was a capacity house at the

fine place for large congregations,
and / was told such congregation
was present at every service. Pastor
Koon is doing a good work in ths
community preaching the gospel and
attending to the duties of the pasto-
rate. He breaches good and strong
sermons. The regular school viii
open next Monday and it is hoped 20
have all the patrons out to encourage

presence and to assure them Of their
cooperation. A new school house has

it to the congregation which olo'

There will be no canvassing for the
money and nc begging. Whatever Is
raised is to be by voluntary contrlbu-
