Beaty where for four or five hours the member* were busily engaged in the old fashioned game of "quilting." Wnen the last roll had been made, screws turned and stitches cut/ out of the frame came a pretty quilt rtpresenting the work of many nimble fingers.

On Friday afternoon in response to a call made by Mr. T. K Elliott, bout twer.tr gentlemec mtl in the town hall to discuss "Telephone." Of course, the object of the meeiir.g was to see wiiat could bf dot:e towards giving Wincsboro a telephone exchange. The News *.sd Herald has frequentlv nrwpfl fhi> -<nd called attention to how our nei? Kbors were surpassing u6 in the enjoj m n? of these njodern conveniences. 1' is estimated that the cost of equipping an exchange of about fifty 'phones would be between $1,000 and $1,200. The plan, as we understand it, is to organize a company, each subscriber to pay $30, and the 'phones, to be rented for about $1 per month. After deducting all necessary expenses for operating and keeping the exchange in proper condition, it is pretty certain that the dividends paid to each stockholder wohm at least pay bis rent. It is hoped that the agitation will lead to the establishment of an exchange. here is success to you. "Inside figarea" are always interesting, and the following are certainly some striking ones about the Ladies' Home Journal.

For several weeks previous to the arrival of Sherwood's Concert Company our teachers as well a & our ^irU were cherishing anticipations of pleasure. In fact, many of the town people were sharing in these anticipations; nor were they to be disappointed Ou Friday evening promptly at 8.30 o'clock, William H,. Sherwood, our "greatest American pianist," appeared before a large audieace composed of about three hundred Winth.^p girls a lftrtrft portion of Rock Hill's I ?O- r -{citizens, besides representatives of the towns of Chester, Lancaster, Blacksbarg and Yorkville. Upon Sherwoods' first appearance on the stage there was a load and enthusiastic clapping u f the hands. After greeting such demonstrations of welcome with several gracioas bows and smiles, he seated himself with dignity at the piano. It can be confidently asserted that if there was any dispute as to his really being "the finest Pianist in America," there was little, that he was the greatest master of the piano that thi? audience had ever seen. All of bis pieccs were truly master-pieces which he literally mastered as a master; the most highly appreciated were a Tremolo by Gottschalls, Military March by Liszt, and an Etude ("Wintry Wind") bv Chopin. The "Wintry Winds" besides being an example of remarkable technique, displayed marvelous powers of expression. No one could have heard it without recognizing the voice of the great power, Boreas. The voice of tttinj Hp rlutmr.tlv heard in lilt/ II1UW v/wu.u VN? ? , the music, iapn r hear it in nature, at one time v.^i pering and murmuring, at another whistling and shrieking, and again moaning and moaning; it took no unusual powers of musical interpretation io hear this, and how a piano can make such perfect immitions of the wind, is a question which must be put to Mr. Sherwood. The Military March seemed to fill every inchot space in oar large auditorinm. This same march had been played as a two by six of the best musicians in college, and it can be pardoned that a newspaper correspondent (observing everything to be taken in) noticed on the countenance of several of the girli an expression which seemed to say: "How is it possible that one man can produce as much sound on one pianc as we six girls brought fourth from three?" Sherwood's assistants in the concerl were of courre all fine musicians. The " A ? ?~ ? 11' 1 'hf VlOIinig; was uumjuaiiy iiuc. -L uv programme of the evening is as follows: 1.

We owe it to Prof. Wade R. Brown that such a celebrity visited as small a town as Rock HilU and it was through him that we had ttie pleasure and benefit of such a musical treat. Sherwood was invited in the name of the Cecelia Chorus. The chorus girls did much towards disposing of the tickets, &c. A hundred and fifty dollarguarantee being in the question, some of the girls worked right hard. The reception which followed the concert was very pleasant, and afforded the girls an opportunity of meeting old friends and making new ones. There was a public meeting of the Winthrop literary society on Saturday, evening. Quite a number of teachers graced the occasion. The subject of discussion for the evening was Alfred Tennyson. Professor Moses delivered a delightful and instructive address on England's great poet, and there were a number of extracts from Ten nyson's poems read and recited by tha girls. The telegram which was received Saturday morning stating that Pres. Johnson would be home on the 10.30 train from Charlotte created quite a stir and excitement among tneieseoer? and girls. Quite a number of teachers went to tbe train to meet him, and the warm reception he received gives but a slight idea of the ioy and gratitude that is in each heart at the return of our much beloved and highly respected president. At>ove all, are ?vg grateful that he xp restored once more to complete health And he looks so well and strong that we girlfl are not going to allow him to leave us again soon?not for so long a time anyway!
