Ool. Hemphill,'editor of the News

ing "high balls." at the Press
Association, but they are on to his
'curves" and he can't fan any of

Brother, don't you mean to ask the
question, "What South Carolina ed

The State Press association is in
session in Oharleston'this week with q
headquarters at Hotel Seashore on
the Isle of Palms. Col. Aull, Presi
dent'of the association says Ed Do
Camp came down without his
("biled') shirt while Col. Bacon wore
his 12 iomers, and he gives out on the
quiet that everybody must stay away
from the beach whe.n Appelt starts in
bathing as he split his bathing suit -
from behind last year and he has not
had them sowed up yet and he is
afraid he will appear in the "alter
gether" too much. He also states
that Col. Hemphill, in his night robe,
as the witching hour of midnight ap
pears, will assemble the craft together
and as he admonishes them in soft
and modulate tones about wasting
the midnight oil, will give to each
one a "night cap" and send them to
bed 'and to a pitcher of ice water.
There are no better people gathered
together than this bunch, no better
place to meet than Cuarleston and
the Isle of Palms and no man on
earth who will. look more closely after
their temporal and "spiritual" wel
fare than Col. Hemphill.

Kirby Lewis the 14 months old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Jake Lewis closed
his eyes to the dear ones of earth to
wake in the image of Jesus and his
remains were laid to rest the day fol
lowing his death at Mountain Grove
church, Rev. B. F. Murphree con
dncting the funeral services
Death came, and with his icy hand
He stilled his loving heart,
But now he Ives in better land
Where death can have no part.
Our life is short and full of care:
The end is always nigh,
We seldom haif begin to live
When we are called to die.
The little life so short on earth,
A witness to us given
That death is but an angel's birth
A lift- begun in heaven.
Why should our tears in sorrow flow
When God recalls His own
And bids them le,.ve a world of. woe
For an immortal crown?
There is a soft and downy bed
Tis fair as bieati of heaven.
The couch for weary mortals spread
W I'e : they may rest the aching head.
And find repose in heaven,
Little Kirby we will miss thee.
In our family circle here
But some day we will caress thee
In Lhat happy land so fair.
A FRIEND.
