The brilliant victories of the Brit

but by deeds.'

Union Meeting.

Although not largely attended, the
union meeting of the 1st division of
the Edgefeld Baptist association. was
held at Edgefeld Saturday and Sun
day and was very profitable to those
who were present. Mr.. NJ. B. Hamil-
ton presided over the union as mod
orator and Mr.. John M. Witt acted as
clerk. All of the churches were rep
resented except Bethany and very en-
eouraging reports with one or two
exceptions, were made.
The queries as provided by the
programme committee were all well
discussed. When the regularly ap-
pointed speakers were absent others
were requested to take their places.
The missionary sermon Sunday
morning by Rev. C. G. Wells, pastor
of Mountain Creek and EHld Spring
churches, was carefully prepared and
contained much to encourage and
inspire the congregation.
The next union meeting of the 1st
division will be held at Bold Spring
the last Saturday and Sunday in Sep
tember.

Death of Mrs. Manley QUITS.

On Saturday morning, the entire
community was sorrow-strlcken
when the sad news came to US, an
.nouncing the death of Lille Ran.
som QUITS. Sac was the only child
of Mr.. and Mrs. Nick Ransom, and
was one of the most beloved Of all
young women, who have ever been
reared IN the Meeting Street sec
tion. She was a faithful member
gof Stevens Creek Baptist church,
I'd before her marriage her peat
Ks aeVsr TssantsatsS Sunday school.
A little over a year ago she was
married to Mr.. Manley QUITS, a
prominent farmer of the Mountain
Creek section. Her character was
lovely wherever she went. She
carried with her always CHEEKY
smile and comforting word. SO
she soon grew to occupy large
place in the hearts Of all, around
whom she lived.
We were all thinking how useful
she would be in her new home and
how happy together having so much
in common. SO congenial in tastes
and sympathy; but she is gone and
the place she knew will know her
no more, forever. Yet is is all
Gods will and we must be submis-
sive. Who can change the works
of His hands:
1t is hard to give her up after
having been reared together and
having for number of years gone
to school together. Yet we would
have His will be done, and we can
bear it easier when we know Lille
is in land where sorrows never
come" Tho she had moved from
our midst, we still felt the intlu-
ence of sweet disposition, she had
when we played together.
Her tired body was laid to rest
in the McKendree cemetery, by the
side of her little babe, Oh Saturday
afternoon, June 90.
Our hearts 60 out in deepest
sympathy for the sorrow-stricken
loved-ones during their bereave-
ment.
None knew her. but to love her;
None named her, but TO praise"

Use More Milk.

where possible, provision shuld
be made to supply each child in the
family with a quart of clean, whole
some milk a day. For each adult, a
pint is desirable when the meat con-
sumption is low. Therefore, urge
strongly that both children and
adults should use milk. Children
should have whole milk, adults may
use milk and cheese instead of meat.
The present prices of butter have
made many families refrain from
using it.. Those who are able to pur-
chase it should do so. Unless all men,
bers of the family are using whole
milk they are using butter in the diet.
If the family must economize, the
amount of butter may be reduced,
but the amount of milk should be cor
increased to secure the
right total of the fat of soluble
growth promoting substances. The
use of butter and cheese should be

To the Citizens of Edgefeld County,,
In the War Savings Stamp CAM
paign just closed we lacked about.
S7O,O0O.00 in subscribing and pledg77t
ing our quota. Surely every citizen.
of Edgefeld county has too much pa-s
triotism for US to fail to pledge and
buy the minimum amount Of S22O,s
100000 that our government asks and.
expects of us in this June campaign:
It will never do for us to fall down
in this, while other counties of the,
State will get theirs, and many will
go over. 8
We are, therefore, compelled to-
try again. Hence, every citizen IS
hereby requested and urged to meet

o'clock at the churches and school

case may be, where you met on June. me

matters in Importance equal to that
of fighting in the trenches.
Therefore you cannot treat this
Ieall lightly nor refuse to comply
with this urgent request. Having done
your duty see that your neighbor

RED OAK GROVE.
Good Union Meeting at Mo-
doc. Canning Season at
Height. Refreshing
Rains.

The union meeting at Modoc was
considered one of unusual interest
in the speech making and the SER
mons. The entire session was pro-
nounced by many to be ideal.
The subjects discussed by laymen
Blackwell, Hawley, Bussey, Bunch
we'll rendered, revealing a line Of
thought that was very beautiful.
Rev. Morris from Aiken, pastor OF
the Clarks Hill church, Rev. koogler
of Parksville, also our beloved pas
tor, Mr.. Bussey, were full of good
works at the meeting. We had SER
mon from Brother Koogler Sunday
morning on the "crisis of life" that
was especially appealing to the young
people launching on the voyage of
of life.
While young and single, too, Rev.
Morris proved himself well equipped
with energy and heart to do things
that have not yet reached the height
of his ambition, proving he his is
growing in grace and knowledge OF
tn Lord. He is student of our SEM
mary in Kentucky. The collection
was taken for ministrial education.
We have had refreshing rains and
everything has taken on new life, so
to speak.
The housewives are busy earning
and preserving as they can get their
allotment of sugar, for none of US
want that which we can do without.
Many human lives must subsist on
that to be provided by US here at
home, so may we conserve. Do it
cheerfully, not grudgingly but with
sincere willingness, AMI may each
one, boys and girls alike, be made
to feel we each have part to do,
thus helping to bring "our boys to
victory speedily.
Next third Sunday afternoon the
Y. w. "A. will meet with Miss Sunle
Sharpton, Misses RUBY Dora, Nettie
Bush and Lou Eva Parkmsn arrang-
ing the programme.
The wonderful talent Of one OF
our Sunbeams, Eva Agner, was re-
vealed as she delivered beautiful
recitation last Sunday at Modoc,
bringing out the power of memory
for one so young. She spoke with
much emphasis and composure.
We almost feel jealous now of the
constant visits of Mr.. Jack Bradley
from Mccormick because he has sto-
len away our sweet little friend, Miss
Efiie Wates. They were quietly mar
ried last Saturday, Ju. e 20, at the
residence of Mrs. Carrie FORESTS, at
Johnston, S. C. MIR. and Mrs. George
Busey attended the marriage of their
sister.
Mr.. John Agner, also MIR. Levi
Holmes, who are in training, spent
a few days with the home folks last
week.

Fall Cabbage and Tomatoes.

Clemson College, S. c. June "a.
Get ready for good crop of fall to-
matoes and cabbage.
Tomatoes. Plant seeds for fall
crop now. Sow thinly so that the
plants will not become crowded. In
late July or early August set plants
in the garden. Use great care in trans
planting, especially if dry weather.
l. Use only stocky plants, and in re-
moving from seed bed retain all soil
possible OH the roots. 2. Pinch off low
er leaves, set plants deep, pour water
around the roots and cover with dry
soil. 8. If to be staked, set 1S to "a
inches on row; otherwise give more
space.
Cabbage. June is the time to plant
seed for fall cabbage also. Sow in old
hot bed, cold frame, or in the open
ground. 1. Use moderately rich, well
prepared soil for seed bed. 2. Sow in
drills six inches apart, and when the
plants come up, thin out so as to be
about an inch apart, to make stocky
plants. 8. Do not force them to grow
too rapidly by too much watering.
The plants should be ready to set in
the garden or field about August 1st.
If plants are stocky and tough they
will stand transplanting in midsum-
mer with much better results.

ployed at the Pacific Galvanizing
Plant and living at 81 South LIST

For a good many years." he
continued, 81 suffered from in
testinal indigestion and constipa-
ton and my health became almost
completely wrecked. My stomach
got In such bad fix that | could
hardly digest anything. Every
thing tasted the same and would
lay in my stomach like a hard
lump and the gas formed by 1t
would press against my heart,
causing a smothering sensation
and much pain. l sometimes felt
like I was choking. l also suf-
fered a great deal with lumbago

stantly. At last l got so l could

gained six pounds in weight. I
have been strengthened and built
up IN every way ana L dont neSi-
tate to tell everybody what a
splendid medicine l have found
Tanlac to be-"
Such statements as the fore
going should appeal to the thoue-
ands who suffer from the same
troubles. Most people who suf-
fer from nervousness and dizzi-
ness, stomach and liver troubles,
kidney arrangements and who
are in a general rundown condi-
ton, simply need something to
tone up their system and to as
sist> the vital organs in perform
ing their proper functions. Tan
lac, the powerful reconstructive
tonic, is the ideal strength and
body builder, because 1t creates a
healthy appetite for nourishing
food, strengthens digestion and,
in a natural way, strengthens and
linvigorates rundown, nervous,
debilitated people.
Tanlac is sold In Tacoma by
French Drug Co., under the per-
sonai direction of . special Tam
lao Representatives.
