PURELY PERSONAL
The Movements of Many People,
Newerrians and Those Who
Visit Newberry

dren, Elizabeth, Margaret and Lau-
ra Nance, of Newberry, are guests
of DR.. and Mrs. ]. c. Harper in Bal
lev Circle.-Greenwood Index-J our
nal, 14th.
Miss Sudie Davenport, who went
to Spartanburg three weeks ago, on
a visit, writes her father, Mr.. j. l.,
C. Davenport, that she has a job
there and will remain in that city.
Mrs E. B. Feagle of Newberry was
dismissed yesterday from the Colum-
bia hospital.-The State, 18th.
Mr.. ]. H. Clary was elected a
member of the board of directors of
the South Carolina Retail Clothiers'
association at the convention in Hen
dersonville last week.
The State newspaper Friday had
squib about dog that made it
lively for awhile on the streets of
that city the day before. The pa
per said the dog "raised enough fuss
for a fourth of July celebration IN
Newberry." We don't know wheth-
er that's intended for a compliment
or fling. All we know is that New
berry now celebrates the 4th all
right.
Prof. Edward S. Werts of Mem
phis, Tenn, arrived Wednesday night
to spend the summer on his farm at
Old Town, where he usually spends
his vacation. He is the president
of the Memphis university, prepa-
ratory school for boys. 1t seems to
us that for a hard working college
man, banker, lawyer or any other
business or professional man, the
farm is the very place to spend ones
vacation. This reporter remembers
how he FUSED to" enjoy rest in the
quiet country whenever he was able
to get away from the eternal grind"
in the city.
Messrs. L. NJ. Graham and VIM. S.
Suber accompanied by Mrs Graham
and her mother, Mrs. F. w. Higgins.
motored to Columbia Friday morn
ing.
Those pretty little sign pointers to
the right and left are useful as well
as ornamental as they stand on the
square and at certain street corners,
and it seems to us that surely no dri-
yer could fail to understand their
significance; but at the same time,
when right in the middle Of the
road, they make it most difficult for
large car to pass. A little Ford
can go through the pass as easily as
a fish can swim through the granite
curves in SCOTS creek, but a large
automobile has trouble in rounding.
Young John Irwin Leavell left on
Saturday for Columbia to assume his
duties with the Palmetto Concrete
Manufacturing company, as Office
man, beginning work Monday. Irwin
is another of our bright Newberry
boys having large supply of natur-
al intelligence in store to ''see him
on to success" Hope you well,
young man.
Mr.. Klettner has been here long
er than since 1891, but that year he
built his store and had it painted.
We don't know how many times he
has had it repainted, but last week
we saw him at the job. He said he
was repainting it just the same way,
colors and all, in which it was first
painted.
Mr.. and Mrs. S. A. Meek of Spar
tanburg spent from Thursday until
Sunday in Newberry with her mother,
Mrs. Mary A. FAINT.
Miss jamie Chalmers visited Mrs.
Jennie Chalmers in Greenville last
week.
Norma Talmadge is a great favor
ite in Newberry as well as elsewhere
She will be here Monday ic "Smilin'
Through" One of the slogans here
is "Keep Smiling" You will be able
to smile with more satisfaction at the
opera house Monday than anywhere
else.
Miss Mary L. Burton and her ne
phew, Mr.. Jas. A. Burton, Jr., who
is on a visit from Birmingham, left
on Friday for trip to the mountains
of North Carolina.
The Country club is all right, ru-
mors to the contrary notwithstand-
ing, including the analysis Of the
water. A lady visitor to Newberry
who accompanied friends there Thurs
day afternoon, says it is a beautiful
place, and she VISA delighted with it.
