more can be thus accomplished than
by permitting The bodies to operate
separately. The development board
has been particularly successful in
it's appeal to the farmers to unite
while e4ie state chamber of commerce
was representative of the business
interests in the larger centers.
The new association, with the re-
moval of all fear of duplication and
overlapping in activities, will be
stronger than the two acting separ-
ately could hope to be. Headquar-
ters will remain in Columbia and the
management of the board will be in
the hands of Arthur V. Smell, until
now executive of the Charleston
Chamber of Commerce.
The board is now conducting an in
tensive effort to enlarge it's member
ship. It has about $500 individuals
enrolled and seeks not less than l0,-
600.

ANOTHER LETTER FROM Mr.
HUTCHINSON.

The editor of The Herald and
News has received another letter
from Mr.. Young 1. Hutchinson. We
are taking the liberty of printing it in
fuI, and we believe that it will be
read with interest.
In regard to what he says about
the efficiency of the postoffice it Il
due that we should say that the letter
to which: he refers was written on
Saturday the 9Th, but was not mailed
at Newberry until Monday the 9Th,
and therefore if it reached him at
Wilmington, Del, on the 10th it did
not make such, bad schedule as would
appear from the date. So, after all.
Gamaliei may not do much betteH
even if he does get new postmaster
General, as he likely will.
Mr.. John Crooks from down on
Broad river, or as he says in his let
ter to s, Gulley Branch, noted the
letter from Mr.. Hutchinson which
we printed and he writes from Gull
ley Branch to say: 81 see that our
esteemed friend also takes The Her.
aid and News. A mighty fine young
man was Young Hutchinson. Would
love to live to see him at least once
more" We are sure Mr.. Hutchinson
would like to come back once more
to the scenes and hsunts of his youth,
and may be this little correspondence
and the publishing of an extract from
his other letter may induce him to
make visit to his old county where
he will have a good welcome.
The following is the letter from
Mr.. Hutchinson:
Wilmington, Del, Nov. II, 1920.

AMONG THE SCHOOLS
Rally Day at St. Lukes.

We had fine meeting at St.
Lukes on last Friday. The crowd
was not as large as / should have
liked, but those present were inter
ested and l feel encouraged that the
people down this side have seen
where it is to their interest and to
the interest of the children to pro-
vide a good high school right out
there in that fine rural community.
In fact, do not know of any COM
munity where all the conditions are
so favorable for a fine school as they
are right here. What we are talk
ing about now should have been done
several years ago, but because it was
not is no excuse for not doing the
right thing now. AS l have said all
along, the great trouble is to get the
people to see where it is to their in
terest, or should put it, this way, to
the interest of the children, and they
should be the main consideration
when we come to talk about schools.
Any one who could have seen those
one hundred children march out OF
the school house to the church on Fri
day morning, and not feel that he
should do all he can for them, must
be a hard citizen to convince of his
duty. And they can not wait. What
we are going to do should be done
now. Most of the children who were
in this school eight years ago are not
there now. They have passed on
down the road and out into the ac-
tivities Of life.
The meeting was held m the
church. AS Dr.. Babb, it was good to
have the meeting in the
church, because the school and the
church are the right hands Of one
another and what helps the one is
good for the other. | was sorry thas
Pastor Roof was absent, but | know
that he is with the purpose of the
movement, to better the school, and
he had to be away at the synod of his
church. The religious exercises were
conducted by the Rev. J. d. Griffin
of the Methodist church, himself for
many years Z successful teacher. |

stand DR.. Walter Hunt was not with

George E. Wintz, successful

gavots about with an abundance Of
personality, magnetism and ability
galore. The leading comedy falls to
the lot of John G. Getz, clever
comedian of wide reputation, and IN
the comedy role of the Monkey

witching brigade OF wonderfully
clever girls present the novel drills
and dance ensembles in a way that
proves revelation to theatre pa
irons. The favorite melodies in this
new musical spectacle includes
"Cheer Up Mabel" Hold Me-" "Old
Fashioned Garden" Land of Nile, "
"Koolen Off," "Huddle Me Alone" ;"

"Why Baby" and others.
For a nearer view of the charming
beauties of the feminine ensemble,
a feature Of the production will be
a "Jeweled Runway" an elevated
strip of beautifully Illuminated foot
path extending from the stage to and
over the orchestra seats in the audi
torium. Over this runway the sing
ing and dancing maldens will from
time to time trip their fascinating
selves over the heads of the audience,
but not too far above to hide their
smiling lips, flashing eyes and allur-
ing dinples.
