GOOD CROWD AT SIX MILE RALLY Educational Meeting Attended By 50( People. Over 500 people heard th( speakers at, the educational ral lv, held at Six Mle, Saturday 'hli meeting was in every re I spect a success, the speeches be ig of a high order. strong and el oquent and the people thorough ly attentive and appreciative. Dr. D. B. Johnson, who was one of the regularly-appointed speakers, failed to arrive occa sioning disapoitment. Addresses were (lelivered by Hon. W. G. _1auldin, member of the house from Pickens, Mr. S. E. Boney, editor of the Lau rens Advertiser, Prof. D. W. Daniel of Clemson College, Rev. W. 1. Walker of Six Mile, and State Senator J, R. Earle of Oconee couty, Superintendent of Education PL. T. Hallum presid(. The home speakers devoted their time in exhorting better schools for Pickens county, tirgiig the necessity of school raining for boys and girls in this day and time. Mr. Maul din incidently "took a shot" at (lemson College, (leclaring that that it was "run on the wrong principle. while commending Winthrop as "the greatest school in the state." Mr. Boney, in a talk of forty minmutes, prsented the matter of co,,-m1pulsory education, declaring it the only method of securing ahything like a satisfactory at tendance at school. One point made by Mr. Boney was that the political revolution of the 90's led by ('apt. B. R. Tilmian, gave power to the ballot of the poorest. most ignorant. voter in the State without also giving him the proper qualifications for using that ballot intelligently. "The ignorant voter is a menace to the State and will continue so until the State accomplishes his emalncilation from the bon (lage of ignorance," sai(d Mr. Boner. After dinr, Prof. D. W. D)aniel delivered a stirring, eloquent add(ress, touching most particualaraly on the material advantage of ani education. He showed1 that it paid in dollar. andl (cnts, and that brains won all the goldlen prizes today. Senator Earle consumed the greator part of his time in re plying to MIr. Boney's argument regarding com pulsory education. 'ie is scared of the nigger in the woodpile of the repub)licans back yard;. he thinks there will be a negro revolutio7 'sving that our. present method of keening them ulnder was only temporary and would sone day fail.

The exercises began at 10 o'clock a. m. with a song and prayer, after which the pastor, Rev. J. E. Foster, made a wel come address which made all feel good and at home. Then came a song, responsive bible reading, essays and reci tations by boys and girls. A Yery interesting paper on State missions and the life and work of Dr. T. M. Bailey, the veteran secretary of the Mission Board was read. The rendering of the program consumed all of the morning hoar except an ad dress by Mr. C. E. Robinson. Mr. McDuffie Bolding had charge of the music and it was inspiring to hear his well trained class sing. The occasion wa- State Mis sion day and from beginning to end the large audience was highly entertained and enjoyed greatly the exercises. After the dinner hour the people again assembled in the house and un til the shades of evening cooled the atmosphere the melodies of praise rent the air. Altogether it was ono of the most delighful and happy oc cosious at Mile Creek in many days, and deserves the coimen dation of its people. Much of the success of the day is due to the untiring efforts of Mrs. L. R. Dalton. A liberal collec tion was taken for State Mis sions. A more extended notice of this very interesting occasion annot be given for lack of acce. Card of Thanks.
