MR. EDITOR: It is our purpose to devote the offerings on the ap proaching Thanksgiving Day to the beuefit of the Church Orphan age in Charleston. This ?8 au in stitution under the coutrol of the Episcopal Church in the Diocese of South Carolina, but it does not confine its work to Episcopalians, the only question in regard to its beneficiaries being, are they in need. It occurs to me that there may be many among our citizens who would be glad to extend a helping hand to so worthy au institution, if the opportunity vere given them'. We would therefore invite the citi zens of t he town and county, not only to worship with us ou Thanks giving Day, but also to contribute in goods or money tor the beuefit of tnese little ones who are depeod eut upon the charity of good peo Die. lu'.i-i ai toi i Lie ow. and sent to the Orphanage by freight or express, ae the size of the offering may determine. As to what to eend, wo . might suggest dry goods in any quantities, from a baby's dress to a whole bolt, gro ceries in any quantities or kinds, comforts, blankets, etc., anything that will go to give pleasure or comfort to these little ones. Of the fruits of the earth, the greater part could be shipped, rind anything that is unsuitable for shipment could be sold or exchanged. As there are 1orty children in the house I esides the attendants, their larder will not be likely to be over stocked. Now we may add that our pur pose in thus appealing to you is simply to give you an opportunity to give as your heart may prompt you, believing that there are mauy in our old town who will welcome the opportunity to minister to these little ones "In His Name." The Thanksgiving Day services wiU be held in Trinity Church, Edgefield, on Thursday, Nov. 30, at ll A. M. The public generally is cordially invited *o attend and worship with us. RICHARD W.

Wofford College, ) Spartan burg, Nov. 25, 1899. { DEAR ADVERTISER : I enjoy read iug the paper3 from Edgefield, and this moves me to send you some thing, as if in return, from Wof ford. In the first place, Wofford's fac ulty has three new members this seesion. In fact, a new depart ment, the department of History, has been added. Prof D D Wal lace, Phd has charge of this de partment at present. Prof Clink scales, who was ou Clemson's fac ulty laet year, is Professor of Mathematics. Prof Blake was the efficient instructor of this branch during last session. Prof Stewart, a youug Virginian, occupies the chair of French and German in place of Prof Cooke, who has mar ried and gone to Europe OD a year's leave of absence, to study in Ger many. The ':Wofford College Lyceum" is another feature of the college that we did not have last full.' Prof Gamewell, who is Professor^ of Latin, is the prime muver in get ting up and carrying ou the work of the Lyceum. The fi st Lyceum lecture was one early la*t spring; by Hamil?ou W. Mab e. Afrnr Mabie came George Kennan, the explorer and traveller. The third! lecture wits one ot' Dr Stafford's, of Washington, ou "Shakespeare's Macbeth." This fall the first lec turer was Robert J. Burdette, and so many wished to iimr him '.hat th court house had t..> be used. Rev Burdette's lecture was excel lent, but evfiu the court house could hardly bold the crowd that heard ex-Gov Bob Taylor, of Ten nessee, about two week's ago. His talk was on "Love, Laughter and Song," aud it seemed to take more with the audience, especially tho -college boys, than any of the other lecturers. By the Lyceum the stu dents eau hear the best and most I . . ! gj:!? nearly .. .. . .? ? ... u -i. ir. has ij?r? <:. htoat) io <,'.iy n-af* g r;'>'--'' :\ j ..;>. tho >xX.?}.'Av.-.

The Seniors won, and of course several were badly bruished and hurt, but no bonos were broken. Although Wofford cannot do any thing much in the football line this season, she will be in front by this time next fall. Some of the boys say I would make a fine foot ball player. They will make fun of a fellow sometimes. The Freshman class this fall is larger than last year's "Flesh" class. All of the cottages and nearly al1 the rooms "n the college and professors' houses are full. The Sophomores, my classmates, do not tease the Fresh too much, and the outlook is ? ucouraging for a successful college session. The college Y. M. C. A. is in good con dition, though there are not quite as many members as it had at this time laot fall. My class is as large, almost, as it waa in its Fresh year, there are several new members this B6B8?OL-. There is a good custom hero at .Wofford of having the membeis o? the Sophomore and Juni jr ciasseb speak on the rostrum during chapel exerc?B63:every day. The Juniors btgiu, and spoakj in alphabetical order, then the Sophs take it up, Prof Snyder, our brilliant English professor, sees to it that every one makes a speech. By having one speech a day, every one fipeake twc. or three times during the collegiat( session. There are six young ladies at tending Wofford now, two each it the Junior, Sophomore and Fresh c n classes. Some of them an pretty and smart and vice versa. Among the Edgefield count; boys hero are Mr Shaw Asbell au< 'Herbert Eidson, ot the Juniors and M W Gary, of th^ Sophomore all from Johnston. All three o them are quite popular with th other boys, a jd with the youug la dies also. Wishing the Advertiser mus! success, I am Yours truly, W. ZlMMDRMAN DANTZLER, Class 1902. Ex. Govenor John C.
