DRIVE OPENS FOR BIGGER
AND BETTER NEWBERRY

With the meeting of the entire
membership Of the campaign team Or
ganization at. Chamber of Commerce
Headquarters at 9:30 this morning,
the actual drive for new member
ships in the expanded Chamber Of
Commerce began in dead earnest.
Approximately seventy-fve men and
women, representing the best citizen
ship of this city and county are CIV
ing up valuable time to present to the
people the opportunity to link them
selves up in a united effort to start
Newberry out upon new era OF
progress and prosperitw such as she
has never known before. The drive
will continue until Friday. The goal
which has been set is 400 member
ships which will give the new organi-
zation an annual income of $4,000,
an amount sufficient to really accom-
plish the many great things which are
to be accomplished if Newberry and
Newberry county are to keep pace
with the rapidly increasing list of
progressive American cities which
have similar organizations.
The membership dues in the organ
ization have been fixed at S25 per
wear which is the standard assessment
adopted by all successful civlc-com-
mercial organizations throughout the
country. Each person who joins will
be asked to make his pledge for three
years. at s25 per year, payable in an
nual, semiannual or quarterly install
ments. The reasons for the three
wear pledge will be obvious to any
thinking man familiar with business
or with the work of modern civic COM
mercial organizations.
The teams that are making the
canvas have been given list of care
fully selected prospects upon whom
they will call. This list of prospects
has been carefully gone over by COM
mittees of Newbery men in the hope
that every man and woman who IS
asked to join will realize the impor-
tance of this movement to the future
of this community and will take at
least one membership, even though
it may involve some little sacrifice on
on their part. i" .
This is big job which the people
of Newberry are busy with this week
and it means everything to the fu-
ture of the city and county. If we all
put our shoulders to the wheel and
push together there is no question
about the result.

Poe's Spirit in Black Cat.

Detroit, March 25.-Is the spirit
of Edger Allen Poe, or some other IA
nous author, reincarnated in the body
of the black cat, "Nero,' guiding the
hand of Miss Martha Gustafson? Miss
Gustafson, a department store sales
woman here, thinks so.
For long time she has had liter
ary ambitions and has wanted par
ticularly to write for the movies. No
luck. Then Nero came to live at her
house. Straightway Miss Gustafson
began to sell her stories. Soon she
hopes to devote all her time to au-
thorship.
'Nero sits by my side and purrs
and I am inspired" she says, "Unless
he is there l am unable to write sal
able materiad."

CONGRESS HEARS
FORMAL SUMMONS
EXTRA SESSION CALLED FOR
EARLY in APRIL
Although No Subjects Are Mentioned
Intentions cf Republicans Are
Well kncwn

Washington, March pa formal
call for an extra session of congress
to meet Oh April II and receive legis-
lativc recommendations from the new
administration was issued today by
President Harding.
None of the specific problems to be
laid before the legislative branch
was named in the proclamation, the
president was merely declaring that
an extraordinary occasion required
that congress convene "to receive
such communications as may be made
by the executive"
Mr.. Harding already has indicated
however, that the tariff and taxation
will be foremost in his message to
the special session. He is expected to
make special plea for prompt relief
to the nations agricultural interests
and the list Of recommendations may
touch many other subjects such as
the railway situation, the merchant
marine, and immigration.
One recommendation relative to re-
construction measures within the
government machine itself is. expect
ed to suggest the creation Of gen
eral commission to dispose Of many
kinds of property acquired by gov
ernment agencies during the war.
Whether the message will touch on
foreign relations is matter Of spec
ulation, but the president has indicat-
ed that his primary desire for the
session is that it work out a plan of
governmental and industrial rehabil-
itation at home.
A program FOR the session has been
discussed at series of conferences
between the president and leaders in
senate and house and although defl-
mite decisions still are to be made a
feeling of confidence is manifest that
they will be working agreement that
will expedite legislative business
from the start.
Some of the presidents friends be-
lieve that he will follow the custom
of President Wilson in delivering his
message to congress in person. 1t
was said tonight at the White House,
however, that no decision on that
detail had been reached.

Make Rapid Advance

The State.
Columbia friends of Robert E. Al
len. native of Greenville, who was
member of the music faculty OF
Chicora college for two years after
that institution was moved to Colum-
bia. will be interested to know that
he has Just been elected to the ONCE
of assistant treasurer of the Central
Union Trust company of New York
This is the third largest trust compa-
nv in the world and the fact that Mr..
Allen will now be in charge OF It's
Madison avenue branch indicates the
Importance of his new position.
Mr.. Allen is baritone singer OF
talent and fine training and he lett
Chicora to become professional
singer in New York. He soon, how
ever. abandoned excellent prospects
for musical career to become SOL
der in the world war. Upon his re-
turn from overseas, after having
served for two years as a first lieu
tenant, he had the opportunity of pro-
curing position with the Central
Union Trust company and, having
had previous banking experience IN
Baltimore some years ago, he accept
cd it. His advance in just year and
q half is considered most unusual.
Mr.. Allen married Miss Ellen Doug
las Boykin of Camden and the two
visited Columbia few weeks ago for
short stay.

RURAL SCHOOLS
GET STATE AID
SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCA.
TION COMPLETES PAYMENT
Over Thousand Rural Graded Schools
on Lists-Show Steady
Improvement.

The State, 25th.
The Office of state superintendent
of education has just completed the
payment of rural graded school aid
for the scholastic year 1920-21,
amounting to s27S,9O0 to LOGS
schools in 46 counties. The ,eco:d Of
these schools makes story Of signifi-
cant educational growth and notable
accomplishment, says the superin-
intendent. Consolidation, better
buildings, an enlarged teaching corps,
better organization and classroom in
struction, a fuller enrolment and
more regular attendance are The ways
and means for this work.
The rural graded schools now out
number any other single group OF
schools in the state. During the last
IL months seventy-fve new districts
have met the requirements Of the
law. Each district levies minimum
tax of four mills for current expens-
es. The highest local tax reported is
36 mills. Approximately ESQ rural
graded schools have voted bonds in
order to erect new schoolhouses.
Perhaps rs per cent of these schools
are levying local tax Of eight mills
in order to meet the requirements of
the equalizing law guaranteeing
seven months term.
Following is the number by coun-
ties of rural graded schools receiving
state aid:

Easter Day.

Contrary to the usual way, Easter
Sunday this year was bright and
beautiful day. No chilling wind and
frosty air or wet, bleak weather to
mar the morning, but warm sunshine
and freshness everywhere to greet
and welcome all. Nature was at its
best for early spring and assisted
gracefully with the millinery display.
Church goers were happy in being
able to gather at their respective
places of worship with high degree
of satisfaction not always their pleas
ure of an Easter morn. AS there
was no morning service at the Epls-
copal church the reporter joined the
Lutherans at the Church of the Re-
deemer, and was glad to have been
there with the large congregation.
The church was lovely with Easter
lilies and other choice cuttings from
the floral kingdom, sweet and pure,
beftting the Easter-tide. To sit in
such surroundings on quiet Sabbath
day and listen to helpful music, is to
have a foretaste of the higher life.
How soothing and inspiring the tune
full notes of the pipe organ, some
times as low Gas mothers SOFT
prayer" and then rising in volume to
fill the place with melody akin, 1t
would seem, to that of heavenly
choirs. To hear and see and enjoy
these occasions in health and COM
fort, ought to make man thankful and
grateful for the blessings he has.
DR.. W. K. Gotwald brought the Eas-
ter message home to the hearts OF
his hearers in words of comfort and
encouragement. Dr.. GotWaId possess
es the happy faculty of knowing how
to say good deal in few words.
One is alwa Us willing for him to con-
tinue a while longer. During the Gel
ebration of the, communion DR.. Got
wald was assisted by Mr.. c. B. Caugh-
man, theological student.
Adding much to the pleasure al
forded the congregation by the har-
mony of the choir was the duet by
Mrs. w. K. Gotwald and DR.. Jno. B.
Settler. 1t was indeed restful
treat and real, true enjoyment. Such
music is elevating and beneficial,
and the after effect is much better
than that which follows worldly
amusement. Why don't we all, al
ways, see it in that light?
At St. Luke's Episcopal church IN
the afternoon the Rev. w. S. Holmes
conducted the usual Easter service.
On account of sickness we were de-
MED the pleasure of witnessing the
pageant at the Lutheran church Sun
day night, greatly to our regret and
disappointment.
