To Tender Resignation.
James A. Barrett will tender his
resignation as postmaster at Clover,
within few days. Mr.. Barrett was
recently elected assistant director or
superintendent of Sunday School work
for the Upper South Carolina confer
ence of the Methodist church. He will
probably make his headquarters In
FSpartanburg -Jims. Barrett as he iE
popularity known, has long been a
leader in religious, fra,ernaT and civic
affairs in Clover and he has many
friends and acquaintances throughout
this section who regret that his new
duties will take him elsewhere.
Announcement that Mr.. Barrett
had accepted the position in Sunday
school work and would resign the post
mastership here was made known to
the people of this section through the
Ycrkville Enquirer several days ago.
1t is understood that there are already
several candidates for the position and
the probability is that the woods will
be full of them within very short
time.
Road in Bad Shape.
Rough weather and heavy Christmas
traffic during the past few days, has
put the Yorkville- Clover road in bad
shape from Allison Creek trestle to
Glover. Supervisor A. J. PARROT OF
the state highway commission has =
been trying to improve 1t but because
of the inclement weather has go far
been unable to get it in the shape that
he would like. A few days of sunshine
would work wonders, 1t is believed.
Christmas Tree Celebrations.
Christmas tree celebrations were
held at the Methodist and Baptist
churches here last Saturday evening,
the entertainments at each place be-
ing held under Sunday School auspices.
There were presents for practically
every Sund;.y school member and O.
joyous time for all.
Revival at First Baptist.
The congregation of the First Bap-
tist church of Glover, Rev. N. A. HEM
rick, pastor, is looking forward with
much interest to a series OF revival
services to be held in that church be-
ginning the first Sunday In January.
The revival is to be conducted by Rev.
Sam Danner of Orangeburg, who Is
we'll known throughout the state for
his evangelistic success. Rev. Dam
ner was for about ten years n member
of the Methodist conference, later
Joining the Baptist church. Holding a
revival meeting in January is rather
novel departure for this section; but
it is believed that such a revival at
this time will prove well worth while.
The services are to continue for about
ten days.
