American Legion Club Rooms
Open.

Monday night, November the 1st,
the first meeting of the American
Legion Club took place in the club
rooms in the Tompkins building.
About SO were present at the first
meeting. The doors were opened at
8 o'clock and every one seemingly
had very nice time. The club rooms
will remain open practically all day.
While the American Legion is-back-
ing the club, it is composed to large
extent of not only legion members
but a great many business men of the
town. Hon. James o. Sheppard who
is commander Of the American Le-
gion acted as Master of Ceremonies
and at nine o'clock called the mem
bers to order so that plans for oper-
ating the club successfully could be
discussed. 1t was decided that the
best; plan would be to elect commit
tee of six to manage the club. The
Hon. A. S. Tompkins, DR.. J. S. Byrd,
DR.. B. Frank Jones, Mr.. Belts Can
telou, Hon. James o. Sheppard and
Claude T. Burnett were elected as
members of the committee. Later
during the evening the committee
held its first meeting and elected
James o. Sheppard as president and
Claude T. Burnett as secretary and
treasurer.
All who wish to join who have not
done so may see the secretary and
have their names entered on the club
roll. Rules under which the club will
operate will be drawn up in short
time.
The American Legion will cele-
brate Armistice day in the club
rooms on the 18th of November.

Temperance Day Observed.

At 1870 on Friday "a very inter
esting exercise was enjoyed by the
Edgefeld school and by quite num-
Der of w. c. T. u. members who
were present.
The program was as follows: Fran
ces Willard acrostic, each of the fol-
lowing children bearing one letter
of the name: Margaret Lyon, Mar
jorie Gray, Anna Zimmerman, Caro-
|1yn Dorm, Ned Nicholson, TIM
norman, George Edward Sheppard,
jamie Hume, Mary Thurmond, Elean-
or Dunovant, Rebecca Arthur, John
Nixon, Arthur Zimmerman and Fitz-
maurice Byrd.
This was followed by a recitation
on the cigarette by Ned Nicholson on
which he has recently won gold
medal in a recitation contest.
Five little girls of the sixth grade
gave short stories of different phases
of the life of Frances Willard, these
being June Nicholson, Elizabeth John
son, Frances Louise Townsend, Lucy
Scurry and Martha Thurmond.
A reading, entitled ga Stainless
Flag" was rendered by Martha Stew
art. Two little girls, Mary Marsh and
Felicia Minis of the eighth grade
gave state prohibition quiz and
the response. Dabney Talbert of the
tenhn grade read poem entitled
Frances Willard" The last was a
reading by Mitchell Wells of the
tenth grade read a poem entitled:
Gordon and addressed to the school
teachers Of the United States.
Miss Hortense Padgett was in
charge of the exercises.
At the close of the progrm a lunch
was served by committee from the
w. C. T. U. The menu was hot choc-
olate, sandwiches and an apple. The
appreciation and courtesy of the
children was beautiful, and they even
refused a second helping. When the
teachers were congratulated on the
good manners of the children, they
very graciously laid it at the door
of the mothers. We thought, how
ever that they must all have had the
same ideals of Frances Willard who
believed in teaching good manners
in the public schools.
Some of the High School students
said they wished Frances Willard's
birthday came every day, and others
said "Long live the memory of
Frances Willard"

Episcopal Rector Praised Pic
ture Which Will Be Shown at
the Edgefeld Theatre.

The following communication was
printed in the Anderson Mail of June
2Oth, and signed by the Rev. Guy H.
Frazer, rector of the Episcopal
church in Anderson, S. c. The COM
munication expresses Mr.. Frazer's
opinion of a picture which is to be
shown in Edgefeld and is as follows
To Editor Daily Mail:
In view of the crying need of
shielding and saving our young peo-
ple from the horrible and unspeak-
able and unprintable deformities and
abnormalities of life when abused,
I wish it were possible for the police
to arrest every young man in Ander-
son and take them to the Strand to-
night and compel them to sit through
the picture as entitled: care You Fit
to Marry?" We believe in compul-
sorry education, and this contemplat-
ed act, if carried out would be en-
tirely in keeping with that principle,
for education of the sort contained
in that picture, if needed, will do
more for the salvation of the race
than almost any amount of preach
ing. !,
I am not advertising the Strand,
but 1 say all glory to the theatre
when used for the benefit of the
races. We have not begun to capital
ize the moving picture house as a
blessing. On with the show! Guard
our young women for the sake of the
little angels.

DR.. self's Ginnery Burned.

The ginnery of DR.. j. H. Self was
burned Friday night. In order to gin
the cotton that was on the wagons
that were waiting when nightfall
came on, the ginnery did not close
down at the usual time. About a
o'clock in the morning while a man
was feeding cotton from his wagon
into the elevator that conveys it to
the gins; a box of matches dropped
from his pocket and was sucked up
with the cotton. He at once notified
those who were operating the gins
but it was too late. The matches ig-
nited the cotton and the flames
spread rapidly. The entire plant val
ued at $4,000 was totally destroyed.
No insurance was carried. About
1900 bushels of seed oats were also
bprned in a nearby building.

Death of Miss Artelia Posey.

On. October the 18th, 1920 the
sweet spirit of our sister and friend,
Miss Tolia Posey left this earth to be
with her Saviour, who said "sI go to
prepare a place for those who love
me" of which she was one. She had
been teachi1g in the Sunday school
for over twenty years. She took up
the work of teaching afSunday school
class which her sister, Martha LIFT,
when she, too, went home to be with
her Lord.

She was also a member of the mis-
sionary society. 1t was great shock
to some of her neighbore and friends
also her pastor, who knew nothing of
her illness until the day of her death.
Many the Lord comfort the loved
ones in this trying hour, especially
the lonely sister, MISS Lizzie who is
left, but she weeps not as those who
have no hope.
"Why should we weep when this
loved one is at rest
In the bosom of Jesus?
The mansions of glory prepared for
the blest,
Are her heavenly home.
She is waiting for her loved ones in
the glorious Edenland,
Which lies beyond the sunset of
life.
Farewell, your loved one and sister
is gone,
And you are left, the loss of her to
mourn.
But you can hope to meet again
With her before Gods throne.
