Along with this question there was
some discussion as to the advisablllty
of allowing women to join the club
and to pay a nominal membership
fee. This was recommended to the
directors and it is thought that in the
near future women will be granted
membership in the club.
After all old and new business had
been finished the meeting adjourned
from the court house, but long after
the meeting members could be seen
on the corners discussing the country
club, which is about to become re-
ality instead of the dream which it
was for so long. Now the members
look On the splendid foundation of
the club house and see the roof al
most completed and they know that
ere long John Kinard will be giving
tea-dances out at the club and when
this comes to pass the members
know that all will be well and every
body will oe happy, with John Wick
er perhaps the happiest Of all, for he
has labored long and "lovingly' to
make the club become reality and
IS he told the meeting in his own in
imitable way that his entire commit
tee had been "sweet as could be-"
in fact the consensus Of opinion was
that all the committees, officers, and
entire membership had been Sweet

TWICE a WEEK, $500 A YEAR
CORRECTION ON LUMBER
RATE GRANTED BY c. N. & l..
Special Rate to Shippers Do Not
Not Cover Shipments to Local
Points

An article was published in the
papers the first of the week to the
effect that the Columbia, Newberry
and Larurens railroad company had
granted q special rate to lumber
shippers, which rate would be known
as milling in transit rate. Due to
some misunderstanding the article
stated that the rate would cover
shipments to local points, and at the
suggestion Of Mr.. J. ". Denning,
local freight agent of the Columbia,
Newberry G. Laurens railroad COM
pany, the New'oerry chamber Of COM
merce wishes it 10 be known that
this rate does not cover local ship
ments. s.
In order that lumber shippers may
understand more thoroughly the
rate, section number 8 of I. c. C.
No. B-2OS3 covering this rate reads
as follows:
"The dressing, drying or sorting
or the conversion into box shocks
or crate material at mills located on
the Colombia, Newberry & Laurens
railroad Of lumber originating on the
Columbia, Newberry & Uaurens rail-
road and the forwarding thereof via
the Columbia, Newberry & Laurens
railroad to or beyond Richmond,
South Richmond, Petersburg, Jar
ratt, Norfolk Primers Point, Ports
mouth, Suffolk, Lynchburg or Roa-
noke, Va"
1t is suggested that before any
shippers try to make shipments Of
lur! er under the above mentioned
rate that they consult their local
freight agent forsfull particulars re-
garding the rate and points to which
shipments can be made.

MEMORIAL
Of Mrs. Bessie Epps Hinnant

The Youngest child Of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. K. Epps who was born and
reared in this county, and moved to
Columbia with her mother in 1911,
and in 1915 became the the wife of
Mr.. A. B. Hinnant, died at her home
in Columbia on September Is, 1921.
She died at the tender age of %, and
her body lies in Elmwood cemetery,
Gayewhen the body and soul shall live
Columbia, S. c., to await that great
together forever.
She was member of Bachman
Chapel Lutheran church since the
age of II, and had never been trans
ferred from the church she loved
wksre the bodies of her dear father
and brother lie.
Bessie is gone from US; her sweet
smiling face, her gentle, kind voice,
and her tender, loving disposition
can no longer be seen and heard. All
these esweet memories she has left
behind, her friendship, her love, cir
cumstances can net estrange, dis
tances~ can not effect, and death can
not destroy.
1t takes just such trials to unfold
and develop Gods infinite worth and
preciousnese to us. When the love
of earthly friends is buried in the
grave, the love of the Heavenly
Friend shines forth more tenderly
than ever.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilied,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom hath recalled
The one His love had given,
And though the cody mouldens here.
The soul is safe in heaven.
Jesus, while Our hearts are bleeding
O'er the spoils that death has won,
We would at this solemn meeting
Calmly say, "Thy will be DONE
Lord, though thou bend our spirit
low,
Love only will l see,
The very hand that strikes the blow
Was wounded once for me.
Written by one who loved her.

a matter of fact, these vacant beds
are neither suitable nor available for
the nearly 5000 sick and disabled
cervice men who are today "farmed

gion, that General Sawyer stand
aside and allow the program of the
veterans bureau to so into effect,
and at once"

ROTARY LUNCHEON

The regular fortnightly luncheon
Of the Newberry Rotary club was
held in the grill room Of the New
berry hotel on Tuesday afternoon at
l 80 o'clock, and, although a num-
Der of the menT5ers were absent, an
interesting program was interesting
ly rendered. Be it said, however, re-
ports from practically every one of
the absent members was to the effect
that they were attending Rotary
meetings in other cities, which
means that the attendance record of
the local club did not suffer as re-
suit of the absence of these Rotari-
ans.
Afser the flag salute, while the
club sang america" and the re-
turn of thanks by Rotarian Ben Gro
nfer, Rotarians Lad Eskridge, Has
kell KibIer and Hal Kohn were re-
quested by Rotarian Sid Derrick to
stand, while Rotarian Cromer award
ed to each of these Rotes a blue rib
bon for 100 per cent attendance for
the first seven months of the present
year. Rotarlans Henry Wells and
Zach Wright, who were on that day
attending Rotary meetings in Allan
ia and Greenwood, respectively, were
also entitled to the blue ribbon, but
they viii have to receive theirs later.
A short talk on "The Progress at
the. Country Club" was made by Ro-
tartan Ernest Summer, after which
Post Commander E. J. Dickert Of the
Ne:I,erry county post of the Amer
lean Legion, guest, was introduced.
Mr.. Dickert told of the objects and
the workings of the American Legion
and discussed Interestingly the mat
ter CT adjusted compensation for ex-
service men.
Although Rotarfan John Gogg.ns
was allotted three minutes in which
to tell the club how to improve its
attendance, he consumed only about
one minute in hitting the nail on the
head, viz: by giving the w:de-awake
End energetic secretary, Hal Kohn,
free rein in the matter, and the de-
t.ired results will be forthcoming.
Rotarian John Kinard was next
called upon for comparison CT the
programs of the va--ous clubs in 9TH
er sites in recent months. Rcitar.an
Kinard's talk was greatly enjoyed,
as he compared the work of the New
berry CLIO with that Of other clubs
whose meetings he has ATTENDED.
The suggestion of Rotarian W..l-
ter Hunt thct the Rotary club get in
behind the work of the Newberry
College club in its efforts to build
one Of the lest gymnasums and ath-
ie.ic fields in the state for Newberry
college started a general and gener-
Gus discussion Of the matter, all of
which proved beyond the shadow Of
a dor!,t ttat the local Rotari.ls are
one hundred per cent behind the
movement. Short talks were made
by RotaTians Walter Hunt, John Kin
ard William Wallace and Clifton Mo-
ise Of Sumter, who is a member of
the Nowberry College Summer school
faculty-and the greatest interest
ard enthusiasm were manifested in
the M ;ter.
The songs were led by Rotarian
Moise-and this Rote was there with
the goods, being able to "carry the
tunes" in spite of some of the Ro-
tarians' cinging!
The guests at Tuesdays luncheon
were Mr.. Ebert J. Dickert of New
berry, and Mr.. Lucas Of Greenville.
The next luncheon will be held on

INVOICE PERMITTED
PARCEL POST PACKAGE

At the beginning Of the Christmas
buying season it might be helpful to
many merchants to know that the
postal regulations advise that inside
of parcel should be the name and
address of the sender and consignee,
and that invoices may be included
with parcel post shipments. Sources
of Identification within packages Of
ten are the sole means of restoring
the parcel to the rightful owner, in
cases where packages become united
or unwrapped in the mails.
A quotation from postal regula-
lions authorized by Stewart M.
Young, Wichita postmaster, fol-
lows:
"In connection with this item, you
may call the attention of your read
ers to the fact that it is permissible
to enclose with all parcel post ship
ments an invoice, either written or
printed, or sales slip, showing the
name and address of the consignor
and consignee; names and quantities
of the articles enclosed, together with
description, price, style, stock num-
Der, size and quantity of the arti-
cles, the order or file number, date OF
order, and date and manner of ship
ment, and the initials or name of the
salesman or of the person by whom
the articles were packed or checked.
"No doubt many parcel post ship
pers are unaware of this important
feature of the service, which, if TAX
en- advantage of, would correct the
complaints made"
