J. public library for Orangeburg
is > mother institution that has been
made a certainty by local women.
Working quietly and patiently for
maiy years the Dixie Club has at
last reached the near approach of
their goal. The Crum building next
to 'the Presbyterian church has been
pui chased and the work of making
that edihee adequate for their uses
will begin In a short while. While
elaborate and costly fixtures will not
he used modern and neat will be the
equipment. A new front large glass
doors, broed windows, paint, paper
ami other building accessories will
make Eiuch improvement in the site
anil a creditable showing v;ill un
doubtably be made. The public gen
enJly Is awaking to the needs of
such an institution and are contrib
uting liberally to its support. While
as yet all of the funds necessary are
no1: in sight several entertainments
wi'l be given in the near future and
committees are cavassing different
portions of the city for aid.

Thei.i the Civic League under the
guidance of Mrs. H. C. Wannamaker,
has net been idle. That vast space
of practical nothingness fronting El
lkt street and extending from Glover
street to Orange Court will soon be
the sc-me of great activity. A paik
will bo arranged for the amusement
of the little folks and baby carriages
will leave their accustomed place on
, the Court House Green and congre
gate at this rendezvous. Tennis
ccurts and other play grounds will
b<i provided for the larger children.
Seats will be placed at convenient
Intervals and before long weary pe
d4 strains will probably be able to rest
tt ems elves and feed the squirrels
running on the grounds around them.
Maybe fountains will throw sparkling
streami; into the air and refresh the
diynerai of the suitry summer. The
small sum of one dollar has been set
a membership fee and many will
avail tnemeelves of the opportunity
ol! doiag much with a small amount.

Bui really and truly a great many
womeii are working overtime in re
plenishing their wadrobes for the
8]>rin?; and summer months. Ab Eas
t<$r ;* pproalcfces nearer and spring
fcecomes more advanced gayly be
decked femininity will be on every
hand. The millinery openings this
year have been more elaborate than
usual and the prevailing styles of
heads;ear have given the "hat artist"
a wide range to exhibit their adept
ness and imagination. .Dressmakers
are exceptionally biisy and the Easter
parade this year will surpass all that
lave ?one before. The men, too, are
"sitting up and taking notice." The
laberdasheries are doing more busi
ress than ever before and the show
ing this year will be a fitting sign of
advancing prosperity.

which to do it was in hand.
An elevated roadway along the
side of the track where all the un
loading of freight has to be done wih
be built. In the p?st heavy cars have
been unloaded at a great disadvan
tage, the approach to the cars being |
so steep that skids had to be used
in loading freight from the car to the
dray. Hereafter the unloading will
be on level ground.
The deep culverts around the vi

Commi ssioners Pass Upon Claims,
Elect County Physician and Trans
act Other Business.
The Township Comissioners of Or
angeburg County met on Tuesday |
at the office of Supervisor with a full
attendance. The session lasted a I
day and a half, adjourning on yester
day. Much important business was
transacted, claims passed upon and
ordered paid, etc.
The claim, of Frank W. Frederick
for survey made in the annextion of |
a portion of Berkeley to Orangeburg,
amounting to $56.42, was discussed,
but not ordered paid. This amount
is among those apportioned to Berke
ley and shoulbe paid by that coun
ty.
A bill from several physicians for
vacinating people In the country were
not paid. These are the first of their
kind ever presented.
It was moved and passed that the
attention of magistrates over the
county be called to the law pertain-1
ing to the holding of inquests. The
law is that a prelimlnery should bei
first held and if evidence is brought |
out pointing to foul play, then an
Inquest should be held. If at the
preliminary no evidence is shown
tending to show foul play, no inquest
is necessary. By observing this law
magistrates can save the county many
dollars, as an inquest always costs
about $20, while preliminaries cost
no:hing.
For the position of county physi
I clan two bids were put in. One from
|Drs. Doyle, Lowman and Jeffords for
$140 per annum; the other from Dr.
D. D. Salley for $11 per month. By
vote Drs. Doyle, Lowman and Jef
fords were elected.

asked that a road now running over
a dam that they desired to use to

Power Company would defray all ex

good a road as there exists now it
could be done.
The Commissioners instructed the
attorney of the board to investigate
and report at next meeting the best
way to get a settlement from Cal
houn County for the amount due this
county by Calhoun, $5,000.
The commissioner from Orange

Dear Friend:
I like racky crackers very much.
The trouble with many crackers is
they wont crack. You can get nice
crisp crackers in this town if you
know where to go. Then your
mama can buy lots of things for
the table and save herself the trouble
of baking. My mama does. Isn't
it cheaper to buy these things than
to bake them?
Nabiscos, Graham, Saltines,
Cameo, after dinner, Fig Newtons,
Zu Zu, Oysteretts, Lady Fingers,
and Cheese Wafers.
Your Friend,
JACOB.
P. S.?You can get all of these
baked things at
