Edge6eId Minstrel and Orches
ira Highly Complimented.

The Edgefeld Minstrels came to
Trenton and carried away the graft
tude and the affectionste remem-

nifty, because both boys and girls
gave a wholesome entertainment
drove care away with songs and jokes
and minstrelsy-and in addition Sc
cured for the School Impr ovement AS
sociation neat sum of money to help
that worthy cause.
The orchestra gave many selections
of music before the regular perform
ance and between acts, and this or
chestra is certainly credit to the
town of Edgefeld. Headed by Mr..
G. F. Minis, playing saxophone, and
with three violins, in the hands of
Miss Minis, Miss Parker and Mrs.
Walter Cantelou, Mr.. Claude Lyon,
cornetist and Miss Ruth Lyon at the
piano it reminded one of the orches-
ira one hears in larger theatre, and
yet these good people were simply Wis
iting in Trenton, helping in a good
cause.
Jim Tompkins ought to join Billy
Beard and between the two start the
Palmetto Minstrels, and he was ably
assisted in entertaining the large au-
dience by Diomede Hollingsworth
and Dick Scurry, and in fact all of
the circle did splendidiy, each in his
own way.
The people in and around Trenton
are singing the praises of the Edge
field Minstrels and may they live long
and prosper.

Can Not Divulge Income Tax
Data.

Washington, March 1S.-south
Carolina officials, instructed by law
to collect from citizens for the use of
the state one-third the amount paid
by them to the federal government
as income taxation, can not secure in
formation from the government OF
the amounts paid.
The secretary Of the treasury, as
was anticipated, made such ruling to-
day. W. R. Bradley, assistant inter
nal revenue collector of South Caro-
lima in Washington yesterday, inquir-
ed as to his authority to divulge in
formation.
Answers to the government ques-
tionnaires involved in the payment of
income taxes have been and will be
regarded as confidential, it is ex-
planned today. This ruling will make
the collections of the state tax doubly
difficult, it is understood by South
Carolinians here.

Study of Japan and Foreign
Mission Work.

Beginning April 1st, 1922, the new
church year, the Sunday schools of
the Southern Presbyterian church
will make special study of Japan
and foreign mission work to be done
in that country. This course of study
will occupy the entire church year
under a plan arranged some years
ago known as the "seven Year Plan
of Missionary Education" This an
nouncement has been made by the
committee on foreign missions. The
quota for the Sunday schools for the
coming year for foreign missions
is placed at 100000, and special for
eign mission Sundays will be May
2Sth and October 10th.
The report on Sunday school work
of that church for the year shows
1866 Sunday schools with an enroll
ment of over 100000. Offerings to
benevolent causes totaled $455,323
by these schools. Over 1000 new
schools have been organized in 20
years and 1S7,646 from the Sunday
schools have united with the church
in that time.

Stands For Enforcing Our
Laws.

Mr.. Editor:
The laws of a Commonwealth or a
Municipality is the highest expression
of what the people are, and should in
no case be modified by those in whom
their enforcement is intrusted. 1t
would be better to repeal statute or
ordinance than to ignore it. 1t teach
es direspect for law, and little by
little modification grows wider.
Every man and woman in Edge
field who puts the welfare of chill
dren and humanity above mere graft
fcation of appetite, be it luxuries on
Sunday or murderous drink every
day, should realize the Importance Of
the enforcement of especially Sunday
and liquor laws.

A Birthday Party.

On Saturday night, March II, Miss
Leila Bland Tompkins entertained a
number of her friends at party to
celebrate her sixteenth birthday.
Although she attempted to keep it
secret, still her friends knew that it
was her birthday and many suitable
gifts were presented to her.
In spite of the bad roads, all those
invited were present. But several
hours were lost on account of the
roads, making it about nine o'clock
when the guests arrived.
The evening was spent in much
pleasure and merriment, games be-
ing played and vocal and instrument
al music being rendered by Dozier
Tompkins and Allen Edwards.
A delicious salad course with iced
tea was served by the lovely young
hostess and her charming mother,
Mrs. w. E. B. Tompkins.
The young people of the town are
always delighted to get an invitation
to this home as it is noted for it's
good old Southern hospitality. One of
the jolliest young people present was
Judge James B. Tompkins, who al
ways holds warm place in the hearts
of the young people.

Time to Plant Beans.

The Edgefeld Produce Exchange
has distributed in this section 1000
pounds of Black Valentine Beans. It
is very important that these beans be
planted about the same time SO that.
they can be packed and shipped in
car lots. Nor do we wish to take a,
risk on having the beans killed by
frost. After consulting several per-
sons who are close observers of the
seasons, we are of the opinion that it
is not safe to plant them before APP
ril 5th. Therefore, we have fixed that
date for planting season. Plant the
beans April 9TH or as soon thereafter
as possible. If the acreage planted
(about 20 acres) in this section is
properly cultivated we will be able
to load car at picking. Beans have
to be shipped in refrigerator car
and it takes $50 to 500 hampers to.
load a car There are 500 beans to-
the pound and if the beans are plant
ed in rows two and one-half feet
apart and the beans two inches apart
in the drill, it will take 1O9 pounds to
plant an acre. Most seed catalogs adj
wise planting three inches in the drill
In that case 80 pounds will plant an
acre. Three inches will perhaps give
the best results in this section al
though / have seen them planted
much thicker in the sections where
they are grown in large quantities.
