There was a burning spot Of
color in Evas cheeks; her eyes
seemed to blaze.
''She will marry him, in fact
for the same reason that you mar
ried me" she said cuttinEly.
Philip looked at hia wife in silent
fury, then he, burst out In q blaze
of passion: How dare you speak

Philip,

she told herself hopeiessly. ''As

He looked at his wife with
stormy eyes. and was struck by the
stony pallor OF her face.
Somehow. in spite of all that she
had suffered since her wedding day.
Eva had never suspected the trrsh
to be so bad as this. That Philip
should never have loved her had
been a terrible thought. but that he
should have cared for someone sise

She drew q long breath, and for a

Civic League Meeting Thursday.

The Civic and Library Association
held it's regular monthly meeting las.
Thursday at which time quite num-
her of matters were discussed. The
principal thing being the request from
citizens to have the library kept open
each afternoon and until 10 o'clock NJ
night as a reading room for the young
men. The association realizes the val
ne of a reading room but is in doubt
as to whether sufficient funds can be
had to maintain it and also whethe'
the library is the logical place to have
it. A committee consisting OF Mes
DANES T. E. Arrowsmith, L. W. Gil
land A. C. Kinds and Miss Agnes
Echman, was appointed to confer with
the town council about the matter and
be ready to make report at the next
regular meeting, the first Thursday
in March.
It was further decided to open the
library three days each week, instead
of two. these three days being Tues
day, Thursday and Saturday. The as
sociation is desirous of meeting the
wishes of the people in every possible
wav but additional funds would be
required to meet this desire. Ihe
lighting system in the building is de-
fective and cannot be used, so all OF
these things will have to be consider
ed and discussed with the council.
Meet with us at our annual meeting
March 3rd, 1921, and give US the help
of your presence and cooperation.

SANTEE BRIDGE
BONDS ARE SOLD
SALE OF BONDS TO THE EXTENT
OF 100000 AT $101 AND
INTEREST

The Charleston News and Courier
of yesterday carries the following
news item, which will be Of pleasing
interest to a majority of the Records
readers:
1t was announced yesterday that the
bonds for the Santee river bridge dis
trict-Charleston, Berkeley and VII
liamsburg, counties-had been sold
through Lawrence NJ. Pinclmey for
SOL and accrued interest. The issue
totals 100000 and will be used in the
construction of the bridge across the
Santee river, about sixty miles from
Charleston.
This is considered an excellent price
for the bonds and the commissioners
are reported to be well pleased with
Fthe record. Some time ago bids for
these bonds were opened, but they
were rejected because the commission
ers felt that higher price was to be
had. Their judgment in the matter
has been vindicated.
1t is the purpose of the commission
ers to carry forward to the work of
building the bridge and the necessary
highways as soon as possible. The
commissioners have been earnestly
studying the various little problems
relative to the enterprise, which will
mean a great deal to the entire coastal
section Of the state. Want Of new
bridge has virtually separated the Pee
Dee and Santee sections.
Mr.. w. King Mcdowell of Charles
ton, is chairman and Mr.. William F.
Burguson, of Charleston, secretary Of
the commissioners, representing the
counties of Charleston, Berkeley and
Williamsburg. Mr.. Burguson was an
indefatigable worker for the bridge
measure, being member of the state
House of Representatives at the time
the measure was enacted. Mr.. Burgu-
son was alert to the opportunity for
getting this much wanted bridge.
Just a few days ago a party, in
cluding commissioners, inspected the
Berkeley highway route and the
bridge site. They were much i'm
pressed with the significance of the
task before them. The route from
Charleston to the bridge will be along
the Meeting street road and highway
to Otranto, thence by way of the state
highway over Goose creek, thence
through the Moncks Corner neighbor-
hood. Each of the three counties in
the bridge district is interested in
bonds with which to pay for the con-
struction.

TO SANTEE BRIDGE SITE
Commissioners Inspect the Highway
In Berkley

An inspection of the proposed road
way and bridge site at the S;.ntee
river was made by Messrs. w. King
Mcdowell, William F. Burguson, NJ.
Rutledge Rivers and Charles ]. Baker.
Messrs. Mcdowell, Burguson and Bak-
er are active members of the en-
mission, Mr.. Mcdowell being the
chairman and Mr.. Burguson the secre-
tary. The party travelled 70 the
bridge site and back in Ford sedan.
They left Charleston at 9 o'clock in
the morning and returned here by 6
n the afternoon.
The party reported that on the
whole the condition of the road is
fair. Work is going forward in the
vicinity of Moncks Corner, the road
being scraped and widened. The party
found that with bitches to facilitate
drainage this stretch of highway
ought to be very good for travel.
At the river, where the bridge site
has been staked by engineers, it was
found that in order to construct the
approaches on both sides consider
able number of cypress trees will
have to be felled. This part CT The
work-the construction of the en-
bankments-is likely to be a large
task.
While the commissioners are not
prepared to discuss the question Of
selling bonds for the bridge, it is
known that progress has been made
and the commissioners appear to be
confident of getting a good price for

their fellows as they followed the
Golden Rule, the foundation of the
modern science of sociology. The
cadets dwelt intently upon his words
