THE ORDER OF STAGS
START OUT AUSPICICUSLY

The Order Of Stays held their first
meeting of the new year in o. klett-
ner's hall last Wednesday night and
from all reports it was a very en-
thusiastic meeting.
The following were appointed
with power to act to find permanent
quarters for club rooms: E. M.
Evans, Jr., L. F. Fischer, C. E.
E2ting, James L. Aull and T. S.
Letter.
The order is now working under a
dispensation granted it by the su-
preme drove which permits them to
continue for short time only to ac-
cept new applicants as charter
members at the small fee of 81.
This should be quite an inducement
as the fee will be advanced to s25
soon. They are also admitted with
out initiation or examination.
We are told by members who have
put their shoulders to the wheel and
helping to put it over that the order
has some very special features that
no other fraternal order has. They
accept manly boys from age of 18
up. They assist each other while liv-
ing. They help each other in bus:-
ness.
The state director states that it is
nothing unusual for city the size

bers. Our sister city Anderson has
close to this number now and is still

The state convention meets with
us in September. 1t is considered no
small honor to entertain this conven-
ton. A gentleman on the street was
heard to remark: "Newberry needs to
bring some conventions here" We
agree with him. We know that
Newberry is a good town-second to
none in the state-but how about the
other fellow? He has to be shown,
and you've got to get him here be-
fore you can show him. This con-
vention will bring to Newberry about
400 or 500 as fine and as represen-
tative body of men as can be assem-
bled anywhere. Heretofore the con-
vention lasted only one day. But in
order to give the local post oppor-
tunity to introduce social functions
this convention will extend over two
days. We must begin now to plan
our forms of entertainment.
At the last meeting of the post
Ralph S. jenkins rendered his resig-
nation as finance officer. His sue
cessor will be elected at the next
meeting.
The post commander appointed the
following committees: Athletic COM
mittee, Owen Holmes, chairman; Roy
P. Finney ard Robert D. Boozer;
nominating committee, E. V. Chap
man, chairman; Chalmers Brown and
John E. Herbert.
Duane Livingston,
Publicity Chairman.

clared that he would not make the
shortage good and wouldn't be ar
rested. He then rushed to the door
and shot himself through the heart
before he could be prevented. Mr.
Brinson and his daughter, Miss Mary
Frances Brinson, were the only per,
sons in the room at the time the
shooting occurred. J
Until few weeks ago Wilson had
been clerk at the Oregon hotel fol
about three years. Recently he was
discharged following exposures of al
legged shortages in his accounts. He
was apparently obsessed with the
fear of arrest, witnesses testified.

according to plans approved by the
state with the necessary cloak rooms
and teachers rooms and lights accord
ing to plans. And the work has been
well done and the material used Of
the best. It should and will be a

ure to hear Mr.. I. NJ. Smith say for
himself and the other trustees, Mr..
J. B. Speak and Mr.. ]. A. Davis, that
they were glad to have had the privi-
lege of making the sacrifices neces-
sary to erect such building, and
that the community spirit will de-
velop so fast and grow so strong that
If per chance there had been any one
who did not feel that the work should
be done that he Will now forget it and
fall in with the spirit of the age and
have the feeling that "me and Patsy
killed the bear" and cooperate with
all the rest in building up a fine
school in this fine community.
There is only one teacher this year,
but by another school year there will
be children sufficient for two. It is
always so. A good school will al
tract the children. And it is right.
The school this year is taught by
Miss Irene Workman, a young lady
Of rare attainments and teacher of
experience and one who is interested
in the work. This is a line school.
There are a dozen Or more of the
children who come from the Laurens
side, and the enrolment at present is
around 80. The ladies of the COM
munity will organize an improvement
society and they will discover the
school house, and it will be the center
of the community, and they will Won
der how they have got along all these
years without just such a buatdlng. A
number of the men and women cf
the community were present on
Wednesday, and besides the talk I
made we had talk from the Rev.
R. II. Burris of the Bush River Bap-
fist church, and then Mr.. I. NJ. Smith
of the board Of trustees spoke briefly
of the pleasure it gave him to see
this building in the community, and
that is what we need, to get the
young men interested in the work Of
building schools. It was matter Of
regret that Mr.. Davis Of the trustees
could not be present, but his mother
was i'll and he could not come. {

sort Of Christmas present, and I
wanted to find out how she was get
Ting along. 4 was glad to learn that
she was expected back from her home
that afternoon and that she was get

should take care of herself because.
the convalescent period is the critical
time with measles. There have been
one or two cases among the children
Of the school, but nothing epidemic
and the school is going right along.
Miss Marie Wessinger undertook to
substitute for Miss Williams and then
she took the measles, and had to give
up the job, and her sister -in-law, Mrs.
Wessinger, bride of couple weeks,
who has but recently come to the
community, kindly came to the res
cue, and so the school has been go
ing right along. Miss Olive Feagle
took charge and she has had expert
ence and she knows how, and one
who goes into this school house will
leave with the impression that this
is real school. This call that I
made is not to be counted as a visit.

live this side will permit these ugly

road with one exception at place
near creek is very good, and that
could be fixed with very little work
and should have attention.
