THE NEWBERRY CARAVAN
OFF TO ORANGEBURG

members of Omar Temple, are second
to none among the membership of this
great social organization IN America
and there is no better bunch of Shrin-
ars in South Carolina than the New
berry contingent. The wearers OF
the red fez in this city are made Up
Of many of the leading business men
Of Newberry-and, with it all, they
believe in having a good time on aGy
and all occasions.
Now, the meeting Of Omar Temple
in the city of Orangeburg on Thanks
giving day will be one of the occas-
ions when the jolly Shriners will lay
aside all business-and other cares
and will see to it that the entire day
and a large part of the night-will
be given over to entertainment and
pleasure. The shriners of Newberrv
are making great preparations to at
tend this pilgrimage at Orangeburg--
ard to say that they are gong
strong is expressing it mildly. Tue
Newberry bunch of Mobiles of the
Mystic Shrine and the large array OF
"fresh meat from this county, which
will be offered, as a sacrifice to the
Unsuitable appetite of the pleasure
loving Shriners, will go in a body by
auto. The Newberry caravan will
leave on Wednesday Afternoon for the
City on the Edisto, and after making
short stops at occasional GASES, is
expected to arrive in Orangeburg at
an early hour on Thursday morning.
There will be "fresh meat" galore
to travel the hot sands of the desert
at this time, and grapevine wireless
from oranseburg brings the infornla-
ton that the sands will be heated to
A fare-you-well for the candidates
from Newberry and other places in
the state. and no stone will be left
rrtrrred to give these unregenerates
theSr full moneys worth.
Newberry's representatives among
the fresh meat to hit the trail on the
occasion of the Thanksgiving Day
pilgrimage will range from ministers
to- we'll, many other avocations-and
they all say that they want their
moneys worth. As Shriners do no.
believe in short-changine, there IS
now every indication that the New
berry candidates will not be disap-
pointed.
The Newberry delegation of candi-
dates will be headed by Rev. E. V.
Babb, who will be expected to LOOK
after the other candidates when ne
is not taking care of himself In al
probability the other candidates will
not receive a great deal of attention
from thts source.
Then comes Red" Johnson, who
will do more travelling in few hours
on Thanksgiving Day than he has
done since he became Knight Of the
Grip. Red will probably be &c
companied by his monthly allow
ance."
Captain ". G. Toole will also be
among those present" and will get all
that's coming to him. There is much
speculation as to whether or not the
Home Guards VIII recognize Their
superior officer when he returns
Here's secret. His name is O'Toole
It's French)
Frank Hunter will run across the
hottest real estate that he has ever
come l1to contact with as he crosses
the hot sands of the desert This Is
some real estate that Frank will nor
re allowed to SELL
W. E. Wilds, Jr., the nimble-fngered
gent of the Western Union office, will
probably be found trying to send out
a wireless call for help, but "S. o. S. .
calls from candidates are not needed
by the Shriners.
George c. Hipp, merchant: Well,
there'll be a-plenty to tell about
George when the boys come back, for
"they say that there is lots in store
for him in Orangeburg.
Elmore Suber is generally recogniz-
ed as "humdinger," and the Shriners
are always On the lookout for hum
dingers. Elmore will not be allowed
to cross the "hot sands" in a Bear
