Hagood School Entertainment
Promises to Be Interesting.

The ladleS OF the HaSOOu ScnOOl
Improvement club have requested
Secretary Reardon to try and IN
terest the people of this city and
county in attending a very pleas
ant entertainment at Hagood
school at 1880 o'clock next Friday
evening, October 21st, and to invite
the public to be present at this en-
tertainment which is being put on
to raise funds for school improve
ment urposes-among the con-
templated improvements being the
enlarging Of the present modern
school building or the erection of
4 larger one, and the furnishing
of the school with adequate desks
and other necessities.
Although October 21st is not
Halloween night good people Of
this progressive and public spirit
ed section have decided to have
an elaborately arranged and va
ried program of amusements and
to call it a Halloween party just
the same. You will have.to attend
to appreciate the full program
which is not released for publica-
ton as yet-but which will be. a
good one.
Many interesting and delightful
events will occur for the pleasure
of young, middle aged, and for
older people il any Of the latter
there be these days. Among the
opportunities for pleasure will be
fortune telling by bewwitching,
pretty, young witches, a new thing
in witchcraft because all witches
heretofore recognized to. do busi-
ness have been supposed to be very
aged, wrinkled. toothless, disagree
able, and JOY killing propositions.
But the 1921 model, Hagood
school and Rafting Creek witches
Will make you happy, and it will
surely be q delightful feeling to
have zone of these new style
witches to hold your hand. A
vote for the most popular lady will
be very exciting and will doubtless
prove Of as much interest as the
gas controversy in Sumter between
the ladies and certain gentlemen
of this city, only at Hagood the
men will stand no CHARGE Of get
ting elected. There will be de-
lightful refreshments served dur
ing the evening, and other edifying
program features. The sweet
young witches will hold the hands
OF the men however. even married
mems hands. The hundreds of Ia
dies and gentlemen Of Hagood and
immediate vicinity have for many
years been staunch friends and
good customers of Sumter's bust
ness and professional men and
women. Whenever Sumter has
seen fit to pull off a fall festival,
county fair, or any other public
event Hagood and the whole Of
Rafting Creek township have join
ed with Sumter in many ways IN
making these events a success.
Now that the patrons Of this
school are seeking TO do something
for their school and school dis
trict it is but natural that they
should reciprocate in hospitality
by inviting their friends Of Sumter
to return the cooperative spirit Of
mutual county pride and interest
in educational institutions, and
otherwise Now suppose We return
their friendship and their cooper
alton by helping those who have
been helping and will continue to
help Sumter and all Sumter peo-
pie.
Therefore Secretary Reardon
hopes to be able to prove that
Sumter's citizenship. the business
and professional men particularly,
are anxious to help build that new
school house and properly equip
the same With that end in view
he hopes that every member Of
the Sumter Chamber Of Commerce,
and Of the Young Mems Business
League of Sumter will help him
10 get a big crowd to go to Hagood
next Friday evening, and show our
good friends that Sumter is inter-
ested in HaCood and Rafting
Creek, and in the prosperity Of
