Life in Newberry is one ball game
after another.
The daily and nightly services at
the First Baptist church in this city
are being very much enjoyed and ap-
preciated by the people of all denom-
nations. In order to give the Meth
odist congregation the opportunity to
attend Mr.. Babb's church Wednes-
dav night, Dr.. Daniel kindly and
generously offered up his weekly
PRAYER service for the occasion. DIR.
skinner and Mr.. McCravy have won
the hearts of the people OF this COM
munity. from the little tots on up.
The preaching and singing have been
all that the mind, heart and soul
could desire, and both preacher and
singer are doing good to NeWberry.
Each strikes chord that meets with
responsive vibration, like a tuneful
sound wave, from the depths Of the
hushed congregation, and preacher,
singer and people are in accord. The
meetings are well attended. A large
choir of sweet and musical voices,
with Mrs. Ba5b accompanist by day
and Mrs. J. P. Moon by night, assists
the song leader, and adds greatly to
the pleaure, benefit and success OF
the gatherings.
The supreme court has filed its
opinions affirming the judgments OF
the circuit court in the cases of Halg
VS.. Wateree Power company, and
Knighton VS.. Desportes Mercantile
company; both cases from Fairfield
county. The opinions of the supreme
court were written by 1. H. Hunt,
acting associate justice.
Prof. S. J. Derrick will address the
Spartanburg County Teachers asso-
ciation at the meeting of the assocla-
ton at Spartanburg on Saturday. A
treat is in store for the teachers OF
that city and county. We love to say
professor Derrick. He is "presi-
dent" and "docJor" as well as profes-
sor, but it sounds more afectionate
to say professor" :"
If you are not going to the services
at the Baptist church you are surely
missing a great treat. DR.. Skinner
and Mr.. McCravy make good COM
bination, and Mr. Babb is happy-you
can see it in his face. The preacher
and the singer know how to get a
hold" on the congregations.
We agree with DR.. Skinner on
"eddifcation," and didn't you enjoy
the hymn sung to the tune of ''silver
threads among the gold," with an
alto part on the violin?
