college and the seminary of the A. r.
P. church, all Being located her.. 1t
seems to me to be an ideal community
for a college. There is nothing &c
distract the mind and the pupils can
give their entire attention to their
studies, and then there is nothing to
tempt them into forbidden paths. l
don't know how long it has been
since the schools have been
here, but biurdng the time some
mighty fine men and women have
been moulded into the paths of right
living and right doing and have made
names for themselves in the fields of
church and State as we'll as in the
walks of private life. 1t has always
seemed to me that it was we'll to have
an educational institution in a quiet
place like this, removed as it were
from the hustle and stir of the COM
mercial world, not that the men and
women who live here are not frugal
and industrious, because they are,
but there is not that strain which ore
finds in the busy centres where every
one is all the time on dead strain
to keep up with the procession. =:
Of course / called on my friend Mr.
r. S. Galloway who is the publisher
of the Presbyterian, the paper of the
A. R P. church, and found him glaa
to see me- He always reminds You
that he is a native of Newberry and
seems proud Of the fact. His parent
al home was the place now owned by
Mr.. Bur Mills and known to many OF
US as the Rikard place, just two miles
north of Newberry on the Ja1apa road.
He has not yet placed typesettlng
machine in his office and uses the old
time hand composition and has tk:ee
men at present working in the shop
two of whom have been with the OF
fee for many years. 1t was press daV
with him but they were taking things
easy and there was no rush to get
the paper on the-press. He has Or
dered a machine AID it has been
shipped and he is expecting it every
day Gust like we are) and when it
comes his son is going to operate it.
The son has just returned from the
factory where he went to study the
mechanism of the machine 50 that
he might handle it.
); Mr.. Galloway is also president Of
the Due West railroad which runs be
tween Donalds and Due West, dis
tance Of FIVE miles. This is one rail-
road that does not operate a train on
the Sabbath, and the train has never
been known to run to the Sabbath ex-
cept on one occasion when it was
necessary to take a very sick lady TO
the hospital. Sometimes nave
thought that it would haYe been bet
ter not to have had RAILROAD to
the town at all, because that would
have kept it unique. OF course for
the hauling Of freight it is great
convenience and great help in that
way. And makes the hauling CT
freight much cheaper than by the ole
way. There are several stores in the
town and a very prosperous. bank
And many handsome residences ard
1 amagine a most delightful atmos-
phere in which to live.
The commencements at the colleges
will be on next week and then the
boys and girls will return to their
homes and the town will be at ease
for a few months until they return
again in the fall.
-O.-
I always enjoy a visit to this good
old town and the pity is there are no.
more communities in which there is
such fine social surrounding and
where there is such high regard for
the day of rest, the Sabbath day. And
reverence for the Ruler of the uni
verse.
