SOUTH CAROLINA
MHASA A0& had been

aSzS2& like manner
- the territory
extending from Virginia to Flor
ida was granted by Charles III
in 1868 to eight gentlemen as
reward for their efforts in his
behalf. The name Carolina
comes from the Latin, Carolus,
meaning Charles. 1t was not
really named after Charles ii,
but originally in honor of Charles
TX, king of France, by Hugue-
nots who built fort near Beau
fort in 1862.
The fact that the Carolinas
became later two distinct colo
MES was due to chance. 1t hap
pened that the earliest settle
ments located ft points far re-
moved from each other. The
first permanent settlements in
South Carol ma were about :
Charleston, while those in North
Carolina were around Albemarle
sound. The life in the two sec
tionS also was quite different.
South Carolina was largely de-
voted to the cultivation of rice :
and indigo and the planters soon .
grew very rich with their large
estates on which the labor was .
performed by slaves. In fact,
just before the Revolution the :
population showed twice as many !
blacks as whites.
In 1929 the government of the :
Carolinas was turned back by :
the lord proprietors to the king .
and there was then formed the
two separate provinces. .
South Carolina was the eighth :
state to adopt the Constitution, :
the vote Of ratification being I,
passed in May, 1888. The Pal :
metto state, as South Carolina ,
is sometimes called, extends over
30,989 square miles, and it par
ticipates in the presidential cleo
ton to the extent of nine cleo
tors.

Thanksgiving.

Many OF us probably look upon
Thanksgiving as just day when our
wives, mothers or sweethearts will
prepare a feast and permit US to eat
enough to develop a serious case Of in
digestion. However, this Is not the
purpose of the day. 1t justly has q
very significant meaning. Its original
ity dates back to the time when this
great country Of ours was a mighty
wilderness. Some time previous to
1921 a comparatively small bunch Of
people had braved the broad waters of
the Atlantic with what we would con,
slider today. the crudest sort Of water
craft, and had landed on the northeast
shores of,what Is today the greatest
country in the world-the U. s. These
were humble people, but GOd-fearing,
seeking a place Of religious liberty
and it was after the harvest in 1921
that they sent out the young men to
kill game that they might gather to.
gether and feast and give thanks for
the bOunteOus reward as result Of
their labOrS Again during the great
revolutionary war when the American
colonies won their freedom it was an
occasion of great thanksgiving and this
memorable day was observed with due
reverence. A few years later, in 1884,
the adoption Of the Constitution of the
United States was an act to be worthy
of thanks to the Great Almighty and
our forefathers observed the day with
appropriate ceremonies. As the years
went by the day some how lost its
place in the hearts Of the people, but
there seemed to always be something
to impress upon their minds the signi.
ficance Of observing this day of
thanks, and then came the war Of
lS6l-65, after which people again of.
fered thanks for the restoration of
peace to war torn country.
It's useless to recall the events Of
the past six years which should serve
to Impress upon our minds and hearts
the necessity Of meeting together and
with one accord give thanks to God 70,
our peace and our plenty. And II
would be very appropriate on this
Thanksgiving Day to implore His di
vine direction for that body Of mel
who are SO earnestly laboring in an eff
fort to reach some agreement that viii
insure lasting peace for the world,
