TAX BOOK OPENING
PUT OFF FOR MONTH.

Walter E. Duncan, the comptroller
general, with the approval of the gov
ernor, recently extended the time
for the opening Of the tax books for
the collection of state, county and
school taxes for 1922 from October
Is to November Is.
The extension was granted because
of delays in getting out assessments
of corporations by the tax commission
and because of the recent extension Of
the time for paying 1921 state, coun-
ty and school taxes along with other
reasons, Mr.. Duncan said. The tax
commission has been busy with the
new revenue laws and short delays
were occasioned from this heavy
work, it was announced. The audi
tors were unable to get their books
ready by the 18th of this month and
as a consequence the comptroller gen.
eral thought an extension wise.

Ladies Entertain the Men.

thea class of the Baptist
Sunday school entertained the
mems class in most unique
On last Friday evening the Phila-
manner at the Sunday school
rooms. The rooms of the primary de-
partment had been thrown together
and beautifully decorated in green
and yellow The color scheme was
carried out all through the rooms
and thespirit of Halloween dominat-
ed the scene. The lights were shaded
with yellow shades with black cats
on them. On entering the door the
guests were, greeted by a ghost who
pointed the way into the hall; there
paper bags were tied on the right
hands with the instructions that the
bags must be worn out shak-
ing hands with one another.
After the bags were worn
out. the guests were invited into
the dining room. The mems class
room had been fixed up for the dining
room, and it presented beautiful
scene. The long table with huge
comports Of oysterettes and dishes OF
pickles and sandwiches were awaiting
the guests as they entered. Steem-
ing hot oysters were served by COM
mittee of young girls. The place
cards were pumpkins, and, on. the
back of each one was a/conundrum;
these were read and afforded much
merriment. On leaving the table
there was an invitation to go into a
dark room. A sheet was hung before
the door and there shadow pictures
were made by different ones passing
the sheet. DR.. Hair and DR.. J. B..
Black were the cause Of much laugh
ter in these scenes: A penny contest
was then given. Miss O'Cain won
the prize for having the most correct
answers. The rooms were again dark
ened and many ghost stories were
told. In the midst of one Of these
stories a black face was seen in one
of the windows-this caused bit
of excitement. The entire evening
was one of enjoyment. The men all
made very gallant bows to the ladies
for affording them so much pleasure,
and all went home wishing for anoth-
er such occasion. Much credit is due
Mesdames Hair and Falls, and Miss
Ruth Carroll for the success of the
entertainment.

Has $3.50 Rooster;
Chicks $5 Each
(By G.. E. Black.)

j. W. Freeman, foreman of the
card room at Santee mills, this city,
is the possessor of some very fine
chickens. Last spring he began rails
ing the white leghorn chickens and
bought fine rooster, paying the sum
of $4,000 for him. The day old
chicks cost him $500 apiece and he
values the eggs from his chicken yard
at $500 a piece, or $4,000 a dozen.
, When asked what he intended do
ing with the chickens raised, he stat
ed that he had two farms in Georgia
and would ship most of them there.
He will use practically all of the eggs
for setting.
Anyone who appreciates good
breed of chickens would enjoy a visit
to Mr.. Freeman's yard.
Mr.. Freeman is a married man but
has no children and raising fine
chickens is somewhat of hobby with
him and if he makes no money out of
them, he will feel repaid for the time
and trouble by the pleasure derived
from seeing and raising these fine
fowls.

Yom Kippur and Jewish New Yea

Saturday, Sept. 23rd, was very
sacred day to all Of Hebrew faith. 1t
was the first day Of the year 56S3 ac-
cording to their calendar and is
known as Hashono or New Year. This
sacred day began at sundown Fri
day afternoon, Sept. 22nd, and con-
tinued through Saturday. While 1t is
always the same according to the
Jewish calendar which is reckoned
by the moon, it varies according to
the English calendar, which is by
the sun.
Last Monday, October End, was
Yom Kippur with the Jews. This is
the Day of Atonement fully described
in the Book Of Exodus and is the
tenth day of Tishri,. the first month
of the Jewish year. Both of these
days were observed by the Jewish
population of Williston by the clos
ing of stores, fasting on the latter,
and gathering for worship.

Negro Boy Drowns
In Edsto Riue,

Jake Daniels, a young negro work
man at Edisto river, was drowned in
the river Monday afternoon under
rather peculiar circumstances. Every
effort was made to rescue the boy,
but to no effect. 1t was some time
afterward before the body could be
secured, and he had been dead for
some time.
Daniels had been working for the
construction company building the
concrete bridge on the Columbia
Savannah highway. 1t is said that
some hooks fell into the river Mon
day, and Daniels, either on instruc-
tions or voluntarily, dived into the
river to get the instruments. He was
said to be a good swimmer and it
was not thought there was any dang
er attached to the attempt, but it was
seen that he was in trouble. A long
iron rod was handed to, him, but for
some reason he did not grasp it. In
fact it appeared that he made no at
tempt to help himself.
A boat was put out, but the boy
had sunk to the bottom, and it was
with considerable difficulty that his
body was rescued.
Daniels was the son of Nose Dan
iels, and was a good boy and a good
workman. He lived on the planta-
ton of G.. Moye Dickinson, but was
filling in some of his time with the
construction company. He was about
20 years old.
