WHITE OAK CLUB MEETS

Miss Mary G. Haynie, county dem
onstration agent, met with the domes-
tic club at the home of Mrs. b. c..
Wadsworth on Monday, August 22nd.
There were a large number of club
members present. Also number of
children and we appreciated having
the children with us, because we feel
that they will take part in the our
club work in the near future, and will
be great help to our culb.
Miss Haynie gave a demonstration
on jelly making and table dressing, ,al-
so she gave many different recipes
on how to put up things for home use.
Miss Haynie is doing some faithful
work for the club and they all seem
to be very enthusiastic over the work
she is doing.
Some of the young girls of our vi
cinity seemed to be very enthusiastic
over the club work, but still we want
more of the young girls in our club.
So Let's get busy gifls and join the
club. You can't realize what nice
time We have in the meetings; be-
sides the things we can learn. So
many things that we need to know
(and are going to need them in the
future).
The club has not decided where the
next meeting will be, but all men,
bers will receive cards in regard to
this when the place of the meeting is
decided.
We hope to have larger crowd Of
ladies and also girls at the next
meeting. We are sure Miss Haynie
will give an interesting demonstra-
ton, so let's everybody attend.

A SLICK SALESMAN

A few days ago liquor salesman
visited Cheraw and Bennettsville and
it is reported that he picked up a cou-
pie thousand from our good citizens.
The advance. agent Of booze (claimed
to be case goods) informed his eager
purchasers that a. truck was following
him with the liquid refreshments. It
is said that good many of the
aforesaid citizens of the two towns
purchased heavily-stocked ND for
Christmas. The salesman stated that
he would accept checks, but tho pur-
chasers not wishing to leave any trail
behind them, shelled out the long
green.
For a short time after his depar-
ture there was smacking of lips in
anticipation of some real stuff-none
of your homemade brand-but be-
fore long the. pleasant anticipations
were changed to anxious expectancy,
and then dire grief, for, 10, the truck,
with its cargo of o be joyful" has
not yet arrived and now the leading
citizens" are sadder but wiser, while
smooth booze salesman is taking
life easy at some mountain or sea-.
side resort with pocketful of the
coin of the realm.

NEWS, In GENERAL

His refusal to preach over the body
of an American doughboy killed at
Chautea Therry because the coffin
was draped with the Stars and Stripes
has caused the Rev. John Snavely.
Lancaster, Pa, to become the storm
center of an investigation just
launched by the American Legion Of
that city. The body was resting in the
vestibule of the church and the fami-
ly and friends were waiting when the
minister issued his edict. The Legion
immediately took charge of the re-
mains and obtained another minister.
An amendment to the federal tax
bin was adopted by the House as a
result of the efforts of Representative
III. P. Fulmer, Of South Carolina, in
cluding in the exemption from feder-
al taxation not only the gate receipts
- of agricultural fairs at present, but
also admissions to any exhibit enter
tainment or other pay feature con-
Quoted by such association as part
of any such fair, if the proceeds
therefrom are used for the MAIN

cultural fairs.

calls to various citizens Of Mace Clenny
and surrounding towns elected the
response that they would not discuss
the matter. MacClenny is only thirty
miles west of Jacksonville but the
gravity of the situation was indicated
by the fact that although the shoot
ing occurred Saturday night moth
ing was heard of it in Jacksonville
until Monday. Persons who brought
the news said there were no casuali-
ties but that the fronts of two stores

demolished by gun fire.
