Prof. Peets came in for his share of praise for the masterly manner in which he introduced Bishop Grant to the au dience, Resolutions of thanks were unani mously passed and the atsociation adjourned to meet Wednesday night. Thc King's Daughters For several weeks the president of the King's Daughters in Columbia, have tried to get a meeting of this once helpful society and strange -to say every effort of the kind has failed This certainly ought not be. This organization once stood fnr much in this city and ior it to become dor mant or loose it* good name and r? putation is too bad, The christian ladies of the various churches should bestir themselves and connect their names to this once noble order and if need be reorganize it? then let them go to work in "His name" and do ! good to the deserving poor among us. The white ladies of Columbia would! not for a moment think of allowing their Kings Daughters to die or be come of no effect, and onr christian ladies ought also take , an interest in such societies for humanity sake. This is written with the hope of it stirring up our christian woman to a greater work of usefulness and we trust it may have the desired effect. TO CUBE? X GOLD ny ONE DAT.
