Poluhni, the magician will be here

Friday and on Friday afternoon he
will be ready to drive the car you
promised to lend him. You will have
the novel experience of riding with
him and directing him by your

and watching some one else do it.
Poluhni is one of the very best of
the worlds magicians and can keep
you guessing every minute.
On account of the Opera House
not being available for the 9th of
February, we will give this, the
fourth Lyceum number, in the school
auditorium, and will also use that
auditorium for our lecture, which is
the last number of our course.
The Civic League has assumed the
responsibility for quite a large sum
of money without any guarantors.
We earnestly solicit your sympathy
and cooperation in our effort to
bring wholesome, clean amusement
to our people. We recognize the nat
ural desire for amusement, and the
imperative need for that which is
clean. We ask the cooperation of
our people, our council and county
officials in keeping our county and
town supplied with the best, and
their support in discouraging what
is unwholesome and injurious.

Letter From Former Hardy's
Correspondent.

Dear Advertiser:
We still enjoy the paper each
week and all the ice letters from
everyone, especially Miss Florence
Minis. But as yet do not find any
news from our old home neighbor-
hood.
l went out home last Thursday for
few minutes with Mr.. E. C. Saith.
the surveyor, to get something for
him we had out there, One of the old
land marks, the grand old oak in
front of the house had been cut
down to keep it from falling on the
house. 1t died year ago and has
been losing its limbs ever since, so
it was dangerous to leave it standing.
That was my first trip over the new
road and that was certainly an i'm
provement over the old way. The
gang was plowing up great clods
along from the "Bad-Luck House"
to "Pretty Run" hill, which were
very rough and hard to travel over.
The galvanized pipes in "Pretty
Run" are a great improvement, 1t
seemed strange not to have to go
through any water at all, all the way
from Augusta out home.
We were greatly shocked when we
heard of the terrible accident Mr..
Nixon Bunch had with a traction en-
CINE out on his brother, Mealing
Bunch's place, last Tuesday. His left
arm and leg, l understand, were ter
ribly crushed by the machine. The
doctors cannot tell yet, what will be
the outcome of it. We hope he will
soon be better and able to save both
limbs.
Glad to hear of Mr.. Ed Bunch i'm
proving at the Margaret Wright Hos
pital. Hope he will soon be able to
be taken home.
Mrs. Sallie Bunch is still confined
to her bed, where she has been for
eleven weeks.
Mr.. Harry Bunch was feeling very
badly Friday.
We were very sorry to hear of the
death of little Mae Mealing and SYM
pathize sincerely with the family.

ed. So there were no services at
Hardy's Sunday.
1 had the privilege Of hearing the
great tenor singer, Mr.. Harrison, of
New York sing at St. Johns chuch
Sunday and enjoyed it very much.
Sunday night ! heard Mr.. Wilson's
sermon on "Why men do not attend
church." think it was the finest
sermon ever heard, and hope to
hear more of his sermons.
The music also was fine at the
Christian church. I attended that
church when 1 went to school here
and have always been partial to it,
but see so few familiar faces there
now. The congregation is younger
people. They have fine Sunday
School and I wish it was so that our
children could attend. there, as well
as the Houghton Institute day school.
They are very much pleased there,
and have so much less distance in
the cold, mud and rain to go, and get
home by half past two. Much better
than to start at eight and get back
by five in the afternoon. Besides the
other many advantages. Wingfeld

not go Monday. Hope their vaccina-
tions are not going to keep them at

Splendid Civic League Meeting

Splendid Civic League Meeting
Mrs Edwards presided at a splen-
did Civic League meeting Monday af-
ternoon in the library.
After the Lords prayer, Mrs. P.
M. Feltham, acting secretary in Mrs.
B. L. Minis absence, read the last
meetings. minutes which stood ap-
proved.
Mrs. W. L. Dunovant, Sr., gave a
good report on thesEyceum, announc
ing that Poluhni, the clever magician,
would be here Friday night, Feb
ruary 9Th. The Opera House not be-
ing available, thig entertainmsnr will
be given in the school auditorium.
A very remarkable program is prom
ised and everything for the comfort
and enjoyment of the audience will
be looked out for both by the League
committee and the School Principal.
A report on cemetery work was
made by Mrs. Edwards.
Miss Ethel DeLoach. was made
chairman of the cemetery committee.
A workman has been engaged to do
some very necessary work in Febru-
ary. 1t was decided to send out pos
tails to all cemetery plot owners ask
ing cooperation in financing this
work.
The president read letters received
referring to the Thrift Campaign
that is being carried on with special
Thrift week to be observed.
Miss June Rainsford was appoint
ed chairman of a committee to work
with state officers of the campaign.
Mrs. W. L. Dunovant, Sr., chair
man, Mrs. j. L. Minis, Mrs. Mamie N.
Tillman and Mrs. P. M. Feltham had
been appointed a committee to look
into the plan to furnish playground
for the town, which is in accordance
with a plan that has taken hold of
many towns and cities all over our
land. The idea is if the right kind of
enjoyment, decently conducted, is
available, young people wont resort
to injurious pleasures.
A crying need is felt for a swim
ming pool where this healthful sport
can be safely indulged in, and the
committee is looking carefully into
several suitable localities for con-
crete pool.
1t is earnestly hoped citizens gen.
orally, will cooperate with the
League in their efforts to give Edge,
field good, clean entertainments,
healthful sports and, perhaps, play
ground where games and stories of
value to the future citizenship of our
beloved village may beguile many IN

served. IA
Sunday was observed all over The
United States as law enforcement
day and ministers asked to give this
subject thought and expression from
the pulpits. (:
Rev. M. Peatross spoke from the
subject righteousness Exalteth !
Nation, but Sin is Reproach to any
People" Those who heard him spoke
highly of his presentations of the
idea of the real nature and presence
of sin in the world.
Rev. E. G.. Bailey spoke from the
same text, those who heard him say
ing that his viewpoint was most in
terestingly given, taking up the evils
of intemperance as taught in the
Scriptures and especially the neces-
sity of instructing children in the
home in all the principles of modera-
tion and sobriety Of conduct.
At the Methodist chuch Rev. G. W.
M. Taylor used the same text and
spoke from the four ideas of Agita-
tion, Education, Legislation and Law
Enforcement. Miss Elizabeth Rains
ford sang "The Plains of Peace"
At the Baptist church the subject
was presented in the evening on ac-
count of the visitor, Mr.. Lanham,
who occupied the pulpit in the morn
ing in the interests of the Y. M. C..
A.
At this evening service the chill
dren of the various churches sang the
"saloonless Nation in 1920" which
they had been singing since South
Carolina was in a campaign for a
dry state, marching in professional.
Carolyn Dorm sang the solo part with
pipe organ accompaniment.
Miss Miriam Norris gave the VIC
tory solo, which is a prophecy full
filled, this song having been sung at
National w. C. T. U. conventions for
many years. y
The Jubilee Song which was also.
written in celebration of the victory
was sung by the choir. 81
The 18th Amendment was read by
MI. B Garwila aid the Provisions
of the law by Mr.. T. B. Greneker.
DR.. R. G. Lee preached a very help
full and stirring sermon on the text
for the occasion.
Notices in the church were "Vic-
tory" National Prihibition," and
Enforce the Law"
Personally / have interviewed sew
eral members of each church where
l did not have the pleasure of listen
ing to the sermons, and each with
one accord has spoken very pleas
ntly of the occasion and the discus
sion and the subject, saying that
they enjoyed and were benefited by
the sermons.
I wish that might have been able
to hear each one and listen to the va
ried viewpoints of good men as they
spoke to their people on this grea.
subject. The Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union of Edgefeld appre-
ciates this cooperation and sympathy
on the part of the ministers of our
town. They are always the best
friends Of temperance and sobriety
and have done their share in pro-
noting these blessings.

BUILDING TRADES IN GRIP

PRICE OF MA TERLALS FIXED
STATE TO FIGHT RAIL RATE
BOOST ORDERED BYI. c. C..
Injunction Likely to Be Asked First-Newton Says
Two Cent Fare in New York Central's Charter
Can't Be Nullified in Washington.
Special Despatch to THE NEW York HERALD.

Ceived under the TRANSPORTATION act.
Attorney General Newton last week
won decision from the Appellate Di-
vision of the Supreme Court here that
restored on September ] the two cent
fare between Albany and Buffalo. The
court accepted his argument that Con-
gress had no authority under it's war
powers to destroy the two cent rate
after the termination Of war control
over the railroads.
The Attorney General contends that
since the rate from Albany to Buffalo
is fixed at two cents in the charter
granted TO the New York Central Rail-
road in 1853 by the State, the Federal
Government, under its war powers or
under its control over interstate COM
merce is without power to increase
the fare above that figure. He has
established in State courts that the
war power is not sufficient to permit
a change in the two cent fare. The
question remains to be tested whether
the powers of the Federal Government
under the commerce clause of the
Constitution are sufficient to Increase
the fare.
