An Attractive Exhibit.

Featuring the South Carolina
Home Producers Association, large
and attractive exhibit composed of the
products which are being put up by
this association, was put up at the
South Carolina state fair, October
1928, by the marketing division of
the Hq& Demonstration Department
of Winthrop College.
TIT exhibit was placed in a center
sSlee in front of the main entrance
of the steel building. There were six
thousand containers attractively ar
ranged on four pyramid stands which
Occupied a space of 6ox25 feet. The
booth was artistically decorated in
gray moss, southern smilax and other
plants typical of our state. Demon

meeting on Saturday. Heretofore the
Domestic Science department of the
Kingstree high school has had charge
of the lunch, an appropriation for
the purpose being given from county
and state funds. The Mothers Club
decided to undertake the lunch as a
means of raising money, and the COM
mittee in charge generously furnished
all the necessary articles so the whole
appropriation will 60 to the treasury
of the club. At this meeting the
amount was $500, but at other meet
ings the sum will not be so large, it
will however, be decidedly worth
while.
Mrs. E. T. Kelley brought mes
sage back from the State Education
al Rally in Columbia which she at
tended as a delegate from Williams
burg, appointed by DR.. D. B. Johnson,
of Winthrop College. She had been
instructed, she said, to ask the CO.
operation of all the women's clubs
in her territory in the effort to make
a success of Educational Week, which
will be December 3-9. Speakers will
come to Kingstree for the Williams
burg rally and it is hoped that there
will be a real impetus given to edu-
cational work everywhere in South
Carolina. Mrs. Kelley stated that
speakers at the state rally mao It
plain that rural schools are not get-
ting the full number of school months
to which they are entitled, and that
there are many high schools over
the state that fall short of the rec
ognized standard and that the pu-
pills who graduate from such schools
are not prepared to enter college.
South Carolina and Louisiana vie with
each other for the bottom of the roll
In the illiteracy test, and this state
wide movement in the interests OF
education is to make a serious effort
to remove this stigma from the honor
ed name of South Carolina. The
Mothers Club will be an active fac
tor in making the Williamsburg raj
ly success.
Mrs. Wilmot Gilland, a guest at
the meeting, sang several charming
songs and the meeting closed with
a pleasant social hour, during which
the hostesses. served tempting re-
freshments.

The South Carolina Home Produc-
ers' Association is an organization of
farm women formed for the purpose
of converting the surplus yield of the
farm into money by placing on the
market standard product.
About 100000 containers were pro-
duced in 1922. Over sixty grocery
stores of the state are handling these
products.
According to Mrs. Frances Kline,
state marketing agent, who is here
in the interest of the South Carolina
Home Producers Association, num-
bers of these products have been put
up in Williamsburg county and are
now being offered for sale by mer-
chants of Kingstree and Greelyville.

Red Cross Roll Call.

The Kingstree Chapter American
Red Cross is putting on this week
the annual Roll Call. This means
that you believe in the greatest
world agency for helping suffering
humanity, you answer to your name
with at least one dollar, which entities
you to be on the roll of the Red Cross
chapter here. In cities where there
are such organizations as the Asso-
ciated Charities and other bodies CIV
en- up to the work of benovelence, it
may be claimed that the work done
by the Red Cross is looked after by
such other institutions, but in our
community there is no other organiza-
ton which finds and relieves suffer-
ing among all classes and denomina-
tions. And there is suffering in our
county, in our town for that matter.
If you cannot take time to go out in
the highways and byways to carry
succor to the needy, put your money
in the treasury of the Red Cross, and
you may feel that you have done
your part in the great work of mercy,
that you have not at least drawn
your skirts aside and passed by on
the other side.
Mr.. Thos. McCutchen will have
charge of the business districts of the
town, and will endeavor to secure, in
addition to the membership fees, the
promise of a definite amount to be
paid monthly by business organiza-
tons and individuals for the main
tenance of the work of the local Red
Cross. Such work cannot be carried
on without funds and it is certain that
the people Of Kingstree will respond
with their usual generosity to this
call of mankind.
Mrs. T. NJ. Cathcart will have
charge of the Roll Call in the resi-
Dental sections and the following
committee will assist her in the va
rious sections of the town:
Mesdames: F. B. Adams, M. F.
Montgomery, ]. C. Steele, ]. F. Wat
son, Harry Britton, w. G. Gamble,
Erban Kennedy, and Belle Blakely;
and Misses Lancaster, Emma Brock
ington, Elizabeth Speigner and Car
rie Scott. Mrs. L. w. Gilland has
been appointed to secure the negro
membership of the Red Cross.

The Community Market is open ev-
cry Saturday at nine thirty. House
wives are urged to bring their fine
hand work and their temptingly pre-
pared foods, or home grown produce
and put them on sale in the market,
which is held in the window of E. C..
Burgess store. Everyone is invited
to come down and see what can be
had at the market. There are offered
for sale many attractive Christmas
gifts, in addition to the housekeep-
ing helps.
"It's an i'll windthat blows nobody
good" and proof of the saying is the
fact that many people of Kingstree
and the surrounding community profit
ed by the wreck of fifteen freight
cars of fruit last Saturday morning
on the road Just above Lake City.
Cars have made constant procession
over the highway going to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity to get
Florida fruit at amazingly low prices.
Mr.. J. H. Epps, an enterprisfng
merchant of Kingstree, went up
Tuesday and filled his truck with
oranges and grape fruit and gave
his customers the benefit of the low
prices.
On Tuesday evening at the school
auditorium there will be given can
Evening of Novelties" admission for
which will be fifteen and thirty-five
cents. The proceeds will be devoted
to the Music Department of the school
and will be used for the purchase OF
musical reference books, badly needed
for the work of the pupils. Mrs. G.
A. McElveen will direct the cast,
which includes male quartette, two
mixed quartettes in comic musical
skits, two costumed songs and dances
by high school pupils, one continued
song and drill by little tots, and at
least one humorous recitation. There
will be a minstrel scene-at the close,
under the direction of o. E, Baker.

Kingstree was defeated on the grid
iron in Sumter on Friday by score
of 80 to O. But the boys took their
licking like good sportsmen. 1t was
scarcely to be hoped that the Kings
tree high school could produce team
equal to that of Sumter, where there
are so many more applicants for the
positions. The high school teams OF
Kingstree and Lake City will meet
on the Kingstree diamond next We'd
nesday. Excitement over this game
runs high, as the last tussel between
the two ended in tie game in which
neither side scored. Loyal Kingstree
supporters are urged to come out and
root for the home team in this con-
test with their most deadly rivals.

Farmers and gardeners who are
growing late potatoes will profit by
being on guard for insect pests al
this time Of the year, according TO A.

method Of keeping up the egg pro-

results by making a mash of ground
