be a slight redness or inflammation
about the wound there was more Of
this effect about the face due to his
intoxicated condition at the time.
This was a minor injury in the
first instance and would not have
prevented the average man or boy
from continuing the work at which
this man was engaged. There
would have been no more danger Of
injury to the scab covering this small
wound on June 4th, the 14th day fol-
lowing the injury, than there would
have been in making new wound by
abrasion or otherwise had the man
returned to work.
The only disability existing on the
14th day following the injury was
the intoxicated condition Of this en-
ployee, brought about by the volun-
tary use of some form Of intoxicant.
and the employer cannot be holden
for a continued disability. if such
disability existed at any time be-
tween June 4th and the 23rd Of June,
when this petitioner says he recov-
cred. If there was any disability
following June 4th it must have been
due wholly to a continuation Of the
spree he was then enjoying
"An injured employee in duty to
himself and his employer should use
due care and precaution that an early
recovery be brought about This he
has failed to do and If any physical
disability existed beyond the 15th

On next Monday night, Nov. 18th,
the members of the Trinity A. M. E.
church will hold a mortgage burning
in their handsome brick church. This
church was built four years ago at q
cost of $1,000 under the pastorate of
Rev. A. W. Timmons. On October 12.
1917, the trustees with Rev. Timmons,
borrowed from the Peoples Bank of
Manning, $2,142 to satisfy the mort
pgage of D. w. Alderman & Sons Co.
This amount was brought down to
$1,672.01 during the remainder Of
Rev. Timomns' pastorate. Rev. Tim
mons was removed in the last con-
ference to Columbia and Rev. E. R.
Anderson became pastor. The new
pastor and the trustees determined to
hurry and pay this debt up. On March
1st, 1918, the debt was reduced to ST.
3S2.01. At the rally in September the
balance was raised and the papers
were taken up on October %, 1915.
This church has made wonderful
showing by the above work and the
trustees feel very grateful TO their
many friends who have helped them.
