HOME COMING DAY AT
COLONY LUTHERAN CHURCH

Last Sunday was home coming day
at Colony Lutheran church some
four miles east of Newberry. Rev.
L. P. Boland is the pastor. 1t was
decided some weeks ago to have an
all day service at this church and to
invite all the former pastors of the
church and all the members who
have moved away from the commun-
ity to come and 1pend the day at the
old church.
They came, all of them who could,
and it was a great day for the home
folk to have the boys and girls who
had made their homes in other COM
munities to come back home for this
one day. These home coming days
and the family reunions, that we are
having so many Of them in this day,
are real good things. 1t is nice for
the people to get together occasion
all. and renew old acquaintance, and
to talk over the other days. Three
former pastors were present and ma
ny of those who had not been there
IN nl.ny days, and the widow of a
former pastor was present. The
former pastors present were, the
Rev. ]. j. Long, D. D., the Rev. A. j.
Bowers, D. D., and the Rev. J. D.
Kinard, D. D., and the former pas
tors wife present was Mrs. Maggie
Bowles, the widow of the late Rev
j. D. Bowles. Mrs. Bowles was read
ly coming back home in the sense
that this community was her child
hood home, she being the daughter
of Mr.. Mike Fellers who lived near
by, and the old home is still in the
family and is now the home of Mr.
Luther NJ. Fellers, the youngest
child. And these home coming days
are good, because they often are the
cause of families getting together
once more. In this case Mr.. L. NJ.
Fellers was happy in the fact that
practically eli his children and grand
children had come home for the oc-
easion, and it was a great thing to
have all the children spend at least
one night together in the old home,
the scene of many happy childhood
days.
At the morning service Mr.. ]. H.
Bedenbaugh delivered a most cordial
address of welcome and a response
was to have been made by Mr.. c. NJ.
Wilson, a son of the congregation,
but he was delayed in arriving. The
sermon in the forenoon was preached
by the Rev. J. D. Kinard who is not
only former pastor but also a for
mer resident of the community, and
it was meeting for him of old
friends of his childhood and boyhood
days. DR.. Kinard preached good
gospel sermon, and it was greatly en-
Joyed by the large congregation
present.
An excellent picnic dinner was
then enjoyed and old acquaintance
was renewed and many pleasant rec
objections of the bygone days were
rehearsed. Among the older people
present were Mrs. Maggie Bowles
who now lives in Greenwood and
who drove down in car that morn
ing from her Greenwood home in Or
der to be there, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Jacob Luther Aull Of Greenwood
county who had come down to New
berry on Friday that they might at
tend the home coming. Mr.. Aull
joined this church in his young man
hood while he was living in the
town of Newberry, there being at

MARQUIS OKUMA DEAD;
FORMER JAPAN premier

By the Associated Press.
HONOLULU. January 6.-Marquis
Okuma, former premier of japan. Is
dead, according to a cable message
received by the Nippu Jill. a Japa-
nese vernacular newspaper, from To-
kio. today.
The mikado conferred certain dec
orations on Ckuma posthumously. the
cable message said.
Okuma was known as the grand old
man" of Japan and has taken a pre-
eminent part in the life of his country
for several decades. He was partic-
ularly interested in the promotion Of a
good understanding between his own
country and the United States and made
it point to receive at his beautiful
home in Toxic all visiting Americans
of note. He spoke often at public meet
ings after his retirement from public
life and was a prolific writer on ques-
tions of international import.
Encumbered as he was with>a wood
en leg, necessitated by a wound re-
ceived when an attempt was made to
assaSsinate him in 1883. he won the
admiration of his fellow citizens by
his extraordinary physical as well as
mental activity. This physical atfiic-
ton brought on serious illness from
time to time. and it was frequently
reported in Toxic that Okuma was
either dying or dead. His proud
claim was that he would outIive WI
Ting-fang, the eminent Chinese
statesman, who still lives. is under
stood to have had an unrecorded wager
with Okuma that he, WI Ting-fang,
would live to be 125 years of age.

DE VALERA Is DENOUNCED.
London Press Scores His Proposals
on Peace as Worthless.

By the Associated Press
LONDON. January 6.-Eamon De
Valera's alternative treaty proposals,
which. according to the Daily Mails
Dublin correspondent, have fallen
very fat in ireland. are the subject of
some editorial criticism in the morn
ing papers here.
The Times says the status for Ire
land which Mr.. De valera's plan con-
templates is not that Of a. dominion,
but of an Independent power in loose
treaty relationship with Great Britain.
The plan. it declares. obviously was
designed to embody the ideals Of that
limited number Of Irish extremists
who are set determinedly against
peace on any than their own terms"
de Valera and his friends" the
Times continues, apparently believe
that England is prepared on q little
pressure to withdraw its treaty and
consent to the absolute Independence
Of ireland. -

ing why the speaker has not confined
the debate strictly to relevant issues.
Unity and cohesion are at the
present juncture essential il peace
and the Irish government are to be
established. All that has been so far
achieved by the debate is the sharp
dali itself. although on the outside 80
per cent of the people are on the side
of the treaty. This aimless, cease
less talk will never result In bust
ness.
Wish Of People Known.
"A point for the deputies to re-
member is that ireland consists of
100000 Inhabitants. and that their
wishes already have been plainly in
dicated and should be taken into ac-
count. The fortunes and liberties of
these people are involved.
If the treaty is ratified by a small
majority and the opposition pursues
an active campaign agains. It. how
can an effective provisional govern
ment be formed? II the treaty is re-
Jected we see no prospect but chaos
disun1on and maybe war. For a di-
vlded country, war would mean ruin
and disaster. The difference in sub
stance between the London treaty
and the counter-treaty is not such as
to justify plunging the country into
chaos or war"
