DR.. LUCAS CALLED
TO his REWARD

MAYOR Ihomas T.. Lucas, M. d.,
died last Saturday morning of angina
pectoris, from which disease he had
been sufferer for many months.
DR.. Lucas was ones Of the oldest
and best known as well as most high
ly respected and best t3lovcd citizens
of Chesterfield County3and his death,
though not unexpected, was shock
that cast gloom over the entire
county. ~
This grand old man was born
in what was then Kershaw County,
but which by changes in the boundary
is now Lee County, on February 2S,
1886.
In 1856 he graduated from the Cit
adcl and three years later from the
South Carolina Medical College.
In that year, 1859, he came TO
Chesterfield and began the practice
of medicine. Shortly after his arrival
in this community he married Miss
Dorothy Craig Hanna, who by the
death of her husband suffers the first
loss of member of her family.
When the war between the states
broke out DR.. Lucas donned the Gray
and, with a commission of First Lieu
tenant, was sent to Virginia with the
Eighth South Carolina Regiment Be-
fore arriving in Virginia, Lieut.. Lu-
cas- was made Major.
He served with distinction to near
the end of the war when delegation
from Chesterfield County prevailed
upon him to withdraw from the army
and enter the race for the State
Senate. He was elected and served
the county at Columbia in those
troublous times as he had served the
cause on the battle fields.
Retiring to private life he again
took up the practice of his profession
in Chesterfield and continued in that
practice until few years before his
death.
1t is related that when the State
was under martial law and a garri-
son of Union soldiers were stationed
here that an epidemic sbrokc out in
the garrison that the army doctors
could not cope with. Many privates
died, but when an officer was seized
with the malady he askd that DR.. Lu-
cas-, whom, he had met, be called in.
DR.. Lucas not ofny saved the officers
life but quickly stopped the cpidem-
ic. He was then made physician in
chief of the garrison.
DR.. Lucas was the first Supcrintcn-
dent of Education that Chesterfield
County ever had.
A few weeks ago DR.. Lucas was
elected Chaplin OF the newly organ
lied Chesterfield Post of the Ame-
ricun Legion.
For 81 years DR.. Lucas was mcm-
Der Of the Methodist Church OF Chrs-
tcrfcld All his life he was known as
Il God fearing Christian, practicinr
rs he profcsscd and following as
has been the privilcdg2s Of few men
to do.
Besides Mrs. Lucas seven children,
hftccn grandchildren and one great
grand-child survive
The children are:
Misses A. r. II. and Pearl Lucas,
Of Chesterfield; DR.. b. d. Lucas, of
Alto, Va Mr.. w. 4. Lucas, of Chcs-
tcriicld; MIR. 7. +. Lucas, of Char
lotte, n. c.; Mrs Felix Cannon, Of
Hamlet, n. G. and DR.. J. F.. Lucas, of
Chesterfield.
The funeral services were conduc-
ted Sunday afternoon by Rev. b. J.
Guess, pastor of St. Paup5 Church,
and by the local Masonic Lodge. DR..
Lucas had been Mason sine 1857
and it was his expressed wish that
the Masonic ceremony be performed
ut his funeral.

OPEN|NG CLASS
IN CITIZENSHIP
MEETS At !. ".
More Than 100 Women
Hear John F. Simms Talk
On Fundamental Demo-
cratic Principles.

Glasses in citizenship for women
opened Tuesday night at the Y. w.
c. A. with an address by John F..
Simms, first speaker on the pro-
gram of political talks for women
W hich are being given under the
auspices of the business and pro-
fessional women's club of Albu-
Querque. More than one hundred
women were present.
Mr.. Simms was introduced by
Miss Josephine S. Parsons, financial
secretary of the university, and pre-
faced his talk by saying that ne
wished TO set forth the principles
of the democratic party so that
women would be assisted in making
their decision as TO which party
they would affiliate with, in case
they had not already allied them
selves.
A program of peace abroad and
at home, and a program OF progress
is that of the democratic party, MT.
Simms stated. He said the demo-
cratic party offered a more prog
ressive solution of labor problems
than the republican; that the DEM
cratic party had raised the rail-
road wages, and that labor had
allied with the democratic party be-
cause it is a poor mans party.
Mr.. Simms dwelt on the national
campaign particularly, and, in
speaking of the state campaign,
stated that two lawyers, both eX-
cellent men, We're nominated for
governor. He handled the state
situation humorously and tolerant
ly. The democrats are trying not
only to elect governor, he de-
clared, but are attempting to elect
legislators as well.
Following the address questions
were asked as to the fundamental
principles of the party. Mr.. Simms
stated that the fundamental prin-
ciples of the democratic party had
always been to keep the govern
ment in the hands of the people,
and not delegate it to the hands or
the few as do the republicans. This
was exemplified in this state, Mr.
Simms declared, where the repuh-
licans were affiliated with capital
and power, and where the demo-
Gratis had never been in power.
The second class in citizenship
will be held next week when an ad-
dress will be made by some re-
publican speaker not yeE an
nounced.

way. assistant superintendent Of
public instruction, a tri-county
consolidated school will be opened
at Scholle on October to accom-
modate 10 children who were so

partment at the hearing, at which
it was discovered that sew lty-nine
children within a radius of ten
miles would be able to take adj
vantage of school facilities, should
they be consolidated.
The list of children contained the
names of thirty-seven from Va
lencia, twenty-three from Torrance
and, nineteen from SocQrro. 1t was
decided that Valencia county
should bear one-half the burden
Torrance, one-fourth and Socorro'
one-fourth. Valencia county be-
ing the dominant county. its super
intendent and county board will
be placed in charge of school ar
fairs in the new district.
