PROF. SNOWDEN SPEAKS Lectures on South Carolina as a Background for Fiction. On last Tuesday evening, Prof. Snowden delivered an address before a large and appreciative audience in the library building at Marion, S. C. The lecture was delivered under the auspices of the Marion public library as sociation. Prof. Snowden spoke in his usual pleasing manner on the theme "South Carolina as a Background for Fiction." The speaker dwelt at length on the valued store of literary produc tions which the authors of the Palmetto State have contributed to the literature of the age. The Marion public library was the first in the State to levy a tax upon the school district for support, and to place itself under the control of the school board. Marion's library, like her schools and churches, is making rapid strides in "developing the intel lectual faculties of the commun ity. An excellent musical program was arranged, songs and instru mental pieces being rendered throughout the evening's enter tainment. The violin selections of Miss McNeil, and the songs of Miss Williamson, both of Flor ence, were greatly enjoyed. Personals.
