Concrete Walk to Station.

Why not make it a continuous con-
cfete walk on the south side of Main
street leading from the railway sta
tion to the Dixie Highway Hotel?
Most of the way is now paved. Who
will take the matter up with the
property owners? Let's step by step,
here little and there little, mod
ernize Edgefeld. A very good begin
ming has been made in concreting
the beaten paths of pedestrians. By
all means let's try to get the entire
walk leading directly from the sta
tion to the hotel paved. Strangers
who come among US by rail use that
walk more than any other.

American Legion Picnic to be
Addressed bye Hon. Morris
Lumpkin.

Sometime ago at meeting of Post
No. 80 of the American Legion it was
decided that the Post promote a pic
mic and the date decided on is April
9Th, 1921.
We state candidly that the main
object of the picnic is to induce those
ex-service men of Edgefeld county
who have not joined the p Post to Do
so. 'z'sf ''-';'s7
The Post is extremely fortunate in
having the cooperation of Mrs. P.
M. Feltham, who is helping US to pro-
mote this undertaking and who has
organized an auxiliary composed of
those girls or women who had relas
tive in the late war, and who will as
sist in making this very successful
and enjoyable day for all who will
come.
A committee on arrangements has
been appointed by the Commander
of the Post composed of Messrs.
o. Sheppard, w. A. Berriann and
M. D. Lyon. This committee has al
ready had a conference with Mrs.
Feltham and the ultimate success of
this venture is practically assured to
all interested.
The Hon. Morris Lumpkin of Co.
lumbia, well known eX-service man
throughout the state, will deliver an
address just before the dinner is
spread under the shady trees on the
school grounds.
The public is cordially invited to
attend the entire program, which in
cludes the address of Mr.. Lumkin.
the dinner and other entertainment
such as foot races, broad jumps and
other athletic stunts which will take
place after dinner.
1t is possible that the stores will
close for few hours so that every
one will have an opportunity to at.
tend the exercises. All Confederate
soldiers are especially urged to at,
tend.

During the evening at the Methodist
church Mrs. Dietrich made an ad-
dress which was a most forceful one,
and all that heard her felt constrain-
ed to immediate action in the cause
she presented.
1t is to be regretted that there was
such small number present to hear
her.
DR.. and Mrs. W. C. Connerly have
gone to Chapel Hill, N. c., where the
former will take a special course in
chemistry.
Miss Tarrant of Mccormick has
been the guest of Mrs. Gerard Tar
rant.
Mr.. L. S. Miller of Richmond, Va,
spent the weekend with friends.
Mrs. Charlie Brunson of Augusta
and Miss Lillian Morgan of Parks
vile have been guests of Mrs. j. A.
Dobey.
On Sunday morning Rev. W. S.
Brooke announced that a protracted
service would begin here the second
Sunday in June, and that Rev. Hardy
of Georgia would assist. Mr.. Hardy
is a fine evangelist and everyone is
glad that he will now be able to be
with this church. Some time since he
accepted an invitation to conduct a
revival service here, but at the last
moment was prevented.

want a delightful outing, get on the
steam boat and take trip down the
Manatee river to Bradentown and
Palmetto. If it is fine sport you are
looking for, go to the Gulf of Mexico
in swimming and diving with the
Yankee girls and boys. One can find
here just what he looks for, be it
snakes or wild honey.
Today for dinner we had, let me

Just before left the state I heard
that the town council of Edgefield
was going to move the Confederate
monument from where it now stands
against the wishes Of the Daughters
of the Confederacy, who are the Gus
todians of that sacred sentinel. And
you know the devil got in me as big
as a sheep. I don't know who the
councilmen are, neither do I care,
but there are some things in the
public square that should be moved
at once. If it had not been for the
good women of Edgeield county that
monument would never have been
erected, and that can be said of the
women of the whole South. Now the
ladies of Edgefeld had it erected
and dedicated where it now stands.
The council can sweep around it, but
touch it not. 1t is too sacred thing
to be tampered with. 1 think there
should be brand new iron fence
around it "a plus "a feet high. hope
by the time l get back that the horse
lot will be near the branch where the
wagons can be parked and the stock
be fed instead of in the public
square. I expect some of the boys
will grit their teeth and make ugly
months at me, but that wont cut any
ice with me. "what I have written I

more persecution for Christ's sake
than any man or woman in Edgefeld.

Maintaining county health nurse
is matter tina: most of US consid-
er from the standpoint OF dollars
and cents. Usually there is dis
cussion as to whether the county
can afford to pay the salary and ex-
pense involved. 1t is generally con-
ceded that an immense amount of
good can be accomplished by county
nurse. II the general health of the
children of the county can be ma
terlally improved bv examinations
and advice given by the health
nurse, the question of money should
mt enter into the decision. If the
Red Cross is willing to bear a part
of the expense OF maintaining the
nurse there is surely little excuse
for Latah county to be without one.
even If the matter is decided from
monetary standpoint alone.

VALUE OF UNDRAWN POULTRY
Experiments Conducted by Department
of Agriculture Show Birds Spoil
Less Quickly.

Poultrymen still discuss the rela-
tive merits of drawn and undrawn
poultry. Practice varies in different
communities. Opening the body un-
doubtedly exposes the internal surface
to the air which always contains mi
cro-organisms, and thus may hasten
decomposition but it should be re-
membered also that the viscera decom-
pose more rapidly than other parts OF
the body, and if left they may faint
or infect the rest of the bird.
In elaborate experiments with
drawn, partly drawn, and undrawn
poultry, conducted by the United
States Department of Agriculture, it
was found that undrawn birds spoil
least quickly, and partly drawn ones
less quickly than the fully drawn ones
from which, not only the viscera. but
also the heads and feet, have been re-
moved.
