cheons ecch month, that is to say
they have two meetings month, and
each meeting means feed and fun.
They do not have two meetings each
month such as they had at Whitmire,
but these gatherings bring the mem
bers together and they come to
know eachA other better, and in
knowing our fellows better we come
to find that even the worst of US
have something good that we did not
know about. l joined the Newberry
Kiwanians, but l had to withdraw be-
cause at that time ! did not feel that
I could in justice to myself keep the
gaits that were required, though it
is a fine organization, just as the
Rotarians, and in fact all such or
carnations are good. The people
in this age are too selfish and have
been living too much to themselves
alone, and anything that will help
them to get out and realize that the
best thing that man can do as he
goes along through life is to help his
fellowman, and to serve his day and
generation, is a factor in the devel-
opment and the proper development
of the race, and will give US vision

AS we had plenty time left we
came back the Princeton road. Don't
take this road if you are looking for
the best road from Laurens to
Greenville. I am glad we came this
way, because / had never been over
the road. 1t comes through a fine
section, one of the best l have seen
in South Carolina, especially the
Greenville end of it. The crops are
fine and the people have good look
ing homes, most of them painted and
the yards in fine condition and every
thing bearing the evidence of pros
perity. The crops are good and es-
pecially the corn crop. And then
there are just lots of country stores
along the way and at one place there
was not only a store but a bank
right out there in the country some
fifteen or more miles from Green
vile. The sign said it was the Wood
side Farms. The distance from
Greenville to Laurens by this road
is forty FIVE miles and the road is
not only full of holes but it is hilly
and in many places narrow. We
reached Laurens about 8 o'clock and
l made a brief stop here to see the
superintendent of education in re-
gard to some of our line schools but
ne was not in the office, and l talked
with the county treasurer about
them. l am going to Laurens on
Saturday and will see if he can give
US the money that is coming to New
berry from the line schools and l will
get our treasurer to send to Laurens
the money that is due Laurens on
these line schools. l wish we could
so arrange that we would not have
any line schools but GO far we have
gotten along very pleasantly in the
running of them.

There are lots of Newbery people
in Greenville as you will find in most
other good towns. Just how we
have maintained and kept increas-
ing our population with so many of
our good people going out from us
sometimes seems a little mysterious.
We stopped first at the auto parts
store Of the Brown Brothers, Ned
and Joe, and they were glad to see
US, and we were glad to see them,
and to see also that everything ap-
peared that they were prospering in
this good town. Then we made g
brief call on Bill Miller who has been
in Greenville for several years. We
found ]. D. (Doug.) Davenport and
j. W. (WilD Watts at the big store
Of Belk-Kirkpatrick where they are
making good and seem to be prosper
ing. There are a great many more
Newberry people in Greenville, but
we did not have time to see them.
Messrs. Sem and Watkins called on
a young Mr.. Crooks who is living
there and I made a brief call on Ri
on McKissick of the Greenville Pied
mont. He continues to promise to
make me a visit to Newberry so that
we may make a trip to Musgroves
Mill and some of the other historic
places around this section, but l am
beginning to doubt if he will ever
find the time.

A PLEASANT GATHERING
AT WHITMIRE TOWN

A good many articles of local in
terest had to be left ont of the last
issue because of the bad condition
of the linotype machine and the
trouble it gave, and among these
was the story l intended to write
about very pleasant occasion at the
good town of Whitmire. 1t was de-
cided to have one of the fine Xiwan-
is luncheons at this good town, and
it was served by the Camp Fire girls
Of Whitmire, and l have frequently
said one of the outstanding charae-
tristics of the people of Whitmire Is
that they know how to do things, and
they do them, and this luncheon was
but a demonstration of that fact.

LOCAL BASKETEERS
TAKE TWO GAMES
Kennewick Boys and Girls Win from
Richland in Friday Games
WaIla Walla Next

The high school basketeers Friday
night took Richland down for a de-
cisive defeat in basketball game that
was fast and furious at times, but was
marred by rough playing and ragged
shooting. The score at the end OF
the first half was 14-7, but the Ken
newick boys ran their end of the score
ND to 80 the last half, which Richland
was only able to bring their part up
to 9. The second team was put in a
few minutes before the final whistle
blew and showed up creditably well.
The undefeated local high school
girls also added another victory to
their list, defeating the visitors 1913.
They exhibited good team work and
hope to win the championship of the
valley,
Next Saturday night the Walla
Walla quintet will meet the local play
ers here. It's bound to be a good
game. Kennewick has not lost on her
own floor for "coon's age" Will
the record be broken? Come and see!

BIG JOB

II is always interesting, some
times Illuminating, to get away
from home and take a look back
at our own community.
Such a view is interesting not
because distance lends enchant-
ment but because often the far
perspective shows the commun-
ity to better advantage than
does the closeup.
Few of us realize the magnl-
tude and the full significance OF
the building of the Kennewick-
Pasco bridge across the Columbia
river. Other and larger bridges
have been built in the United
States and in the Northwest.
Measured in terms of masonry,
steel, and timber the bridge is
not so big but when considered
in terms of community effort it
is one of the biggest in the
country.
At the annual convention of
the National Association of Com
mercial Organizations in New
Orleans last October the build
ing of the Kennewick-Pasco
bridge was declared to be one of
the big outstanding commercial
club achievements in the United
States in 1921. One hundred of
the largest cities were represent
ed at the New Orleans meeting
and no one of them could report
bigger undertaking successful
ly done.
Not only will the structure
bridge the Columbia river and
eliminate a physical barrier be-
tween Kennewick and Pasco and
other towns in this part of the
state but it will bring many COM
munities of this state closer to-
gether in their friendships and
commercial relations.
Today hundreds of people in
Seattle are watching, through
press reports, the progress of the
bridge with as keen an interest
as are the people of Kennewick
and Pasco. They have direct
personal interest in the under
taking. 1t is their bridge and
they are proud of the fact. Many
of them are looking forward to
the time when the mountain
roads are open and they can drive
across to see the bridge in course
of construction, while others are
holding open the dedication date
that they may be here to witness
the formal opening of their
bridge
