The Antreville Branch of the Am
erican Bible Society met at Shiloh
church July goth. The sermon was
preached by Rev. M. R. Plaxco of
Abbeville. His text was "Where
there is no vision the people per-
ish." He showed in a remarkable way
how history repeats itself. He closed
his sermon by reviewing the good
that the American Bible Society is
doing and has done in the past.
The usual essay was read by Miss
Myra Williams. She chose as her
subject, "Music' and in a very i'm
pressive way she traced music and
rhymth from the patter of the rain
drops, and the distant locomotive to
the good old hymns and classical
music of today.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. C. Mullikin of
Birmingham, Ala, and Roscoe Knox,
Jr,. of Atlanta who have been visit
ing relatives here returned home
Friday. They were accompanied by
Miss Evelyn Prince, who will visit
them for sometime.

their estimate and appreciation Of
the Bible. He said he hoped to see
the day when the Bible would De
given first place as a text book in

ABBEVILLE TIES
ANDERSON TEAM
In a Twelve Inning Game in Ander-
son Thursday-Allen Has Edge
in Duel of Pitchers.

Abbeville fought to a spectacular
IL inning 4 to 4 in Anderson yes
terday afternoon in the first game
Of the week between the two. clubs
on the Anderson diamond.
The game was a sensational pitch
ers' duel between Simpson for the
electricians and Allen for Abbeville.
in which Allen probably had a slight
edge on his opponent. Our boys
were able to hit Simpson rather
freely in several innings, piling up
a total of IA safeties during the IL
innings of play. The Andersonians,
who usually outhit visiting teams,
were able to get only eight safeties.
The batting of Medlock for the cleo
tricians and Reames and Erwin for
Abbeville featured the day. Scoggins
swatted out a home run for Able
vile in the second inning.
