Pickes ' g Sntnel.jorAs ompwan. L 0. TOMPSO- Erro. pcKENS, S. C. ?HI3DYsyEhBER 16. 1909. Whiskey For Sate. We heard that several parties have ordered, and have got, a lot of whiskey, which they ex pect to dispose of at the fair next week. This may be idle nimor, and we hope it is, but if it be true, we hope) the said par ties will take a second thought and desist from their plans. At the fair will be no place for any one under the influence of whis Wey and the officers of the law are determined to be extra vigi lant to see that there is none sold, and even drank in and around town during that time, if they can prevent it. With main street packed and jammed ith women and children and the streets closed to trafc, one man under the influence of a kecoctio of the cheap poison aould create a nnic and igit ,e te means of several liles lost. We ho the good deple of the iufiey yill exert their inhuence ma stbe crowd at the fair. t yrg have any whisiy to sell Mr dink, wait until the far is ever to do it. As we remarked in the outset, this report may b,e only an idle rumor, nd i hope it is, but a stitch in time saves nge, and aord to th Vine is suticiept. t Importanec of Observing e Rvloi Lai4 dowo for Exhibitors. We prit tq-0ay a series of Tples 1pid down to govern exhibi tors, which are pecessary in or de to enable the various corn niitteemen having charge of ex bibhits to properly collect and di rect the same so that none may be overlooked. The crowdei condition of the streets during Fair week, and the fact thal Main Street will be closed against travel during the active opera tions of the Fair make it neces sary for the convenience of all parties and for the safety of the general public that some rules be made and enforced. So dc not blame the Fair management for any miscarriage of your own exhibits, but take these rules in to consideration, and observe them by sending your exhibits in due time and aid the various committees by looking personal ly after your exhibits. Post Master Morris Attends Meeting. The Sixth Annual Convene tion of the National Association of Postmasters of the second and third classes, was held at Gainse ville, Ga., on September 8, 9, 10, 1909, and Postmaster A. M. Z~hwMorris of Pickens, S. C. attended same. Postmaster Morris stated that the convention was a suc cess in every respect, and al though there was considerable business transacted at the said meeting, there was plenty of time remaining for pleasure and he enjoyed every moment of the trip. Postmasters from all parts of the c'ountry were present, some of which had never seen cotton growing, therefore meetings of this kind not only improve postal facilities but affords op portunities for the Northern people to become better ac quainted with the Southern people and the progress they have made since the war and are making in the present time. Let us hope that Postmaster Morris will be able to convince the majority of the members that Pickens is the most suit able place for next ednvention. Governor and Mrs. Joseph M. Brown gave a reception to the Postmasters at the Executive Mansion Saturday -evening, ami vwhen .he saw Mr'.'Morxfi h 7Resolutions of. 2espeni . -Whereas, at the anmma-'Tefl ingo f the Old Soldiers MAttM PHg June Pr ora V ra e old so y he "ee passed to heir reward, it was especially desired tb at the Old Soldiers of Pickens kouty give some pulAic expres sion of their appreciation of their comrades in arms who have passed to their finL 1e 1 "nd,-WFereas, it-is desired hisexpressiona estoeni an appreciation out of respect to many who did not hold m'm bership in any Camp of Con fed erate veterans in the County, though it seemed eminently meet and proper that they should be remembered, and de siring so to remember all old sol diers who were entitled to r cog inition as Confederate veterans, the meeting of June 3rd, 1909, saw fit, after full discussion. tc appoint the undersigned a com mittee to draft suitable resolu tions as hereinabove indicated: BE IT Resolved: That thE old soldiers of Pickens County, through the undersigned com mittee duly appointed, hereby speak the feelings of regret and of loss which the Confederate veterans of Pickens County sustain in the death of all our comrades who have passed away since the organization of any Camp in Pickens County. In a general way, we cannot deal w ith each indivIdual life and hold it up to the present rener ation more than to say that the courage exemplified by these soldiers has had no equal in the history of this country. The Southern army contained ni truer representatives of Amei i, can aoldiery and citizenshir than those who went from th'E section of South Carolina tc serve the cause for which they fought for principle. In passing we realize that such tribute aE this must be written of all tru( soldiers, and we think it approp riate that we stop long enougi to give some measure of express sion of our gratitude to God fo his mercies unto us in giving u the examples of their live san( iW sparing us to fulfill our allot ted dties. We yield submissive ly to thedecree of Him who do eth all things well, and commen the present and future gener ation to those lives devotion, a! true examaples of the highes citixenship. We would remin< Sall old soldiers of the days s soon to com e when they to< must wrap their mantles abou them and lie down to pleasan dreams. We commend you all to th soumce -of all comfort an< strength. Respectfully submitted, W. B. Allgood, A.Chairman. A.F. McCord B. J. Johnston Committee. Cateechee It'was the writers pleasure t< attend the Sunday school picni< at Six Mile on last Saturday 10th inst. - Promptly at 9 a. m The people began to gather a1 the church and by 10 o'clocl there was a good crowd present the writer has seen large] crowds at Six Mile, but owing to'the mud and the inclemency of the weather the audience was fairly good. At 10 a. m. the Supt. of the school, Mr. C. R. Albercrombie, read the 23rd and 24th division of Psalms after which a prayer was offered by Brother D. E. Garrett. As the invited speakers, Hon. J. E. -Boggs and Rev. J. M. Stewart, had not arrived by this time a program was arranged as 1there were other able speakers present. The first speaker, Rev. W. M. Wa ker, was then intro duced and made a good lecture on Sunday school work. Every body who knows Bro. Walker, knows he is one of the ablest promulgators of the Gospel, in the county, for the Lord seems to bless his work and crown his efforts with success wherever he holds a meeting. He closed a weeks meeting at Glenwood Cot ton Mill a few days ago and the result was 25 accessions to the church. The next speaker was Bro. J. C. Garrett who also made an instructive and edifying talk on Sunday school work. Mr. Garrett made his speech pretty well along the same line that he did at the Cateechee Sunday school plenic. He showed the importance of work to develop the physical frame as well as the mental training. Mr. Gar rett is an earnest worker in a Sunday school and has a floum ishing school at his church in Norris. The third and last but not least, was that natural born speaker, Hon. W. G. Mauldin, who - s alwvays ready when it comes to:tma.king ~a speech, eit4e, ipolitikally' or religiously. HR.beemed- to' be-at his best oni this ot*basfort and 'for the writer to pndftaL tos outline, his er;bour pgiwogld fall short ahlum .uutice: ,for his <miched . the- hearts of apresent.and-when he Ahere"was -scarcely a din the 'audience. rett' 'to h re a th ch4h . e i gh nd son"thin ' a n t ye an & ste t t t e a en e% eak. After marching out there we found a table 80 feet long and loaded; Wi iefk 1 VWt uries, and wL-.,-n-ev-ery-("e-Pre ent, hadA 11 etidl -c1 lthe: food as t-erm wz -nmr left on the tabWgrggY li4 e -Sh16irowd agami. Right here we want to say to t he young men who are contem p.ating marrying, and want a good cook go to the Six Mile sec Lion to get her. At 1 p. m. the audience reas sembled in the church when Prof. R. M. Baker was asked to arrange the class and sing 15 minutes. It is needless to say that these brethren made some soal stirring music. At three P. M. Rev. W. M. Walker preached from tie text "Behold Thy Mother." At the close .f this sermon the spirit was visib!e all over the audience. Bro. Walker opened the door of the church and received two members into the church. After extending the right hand of fel lowship to these two young (on verts, the audience was then dismissed and returned home about four P. M. feeling that they had been benefitted by be ing present at the picnic at Six Mile. The members of Six Mile church have had three mis fortunes, by having three churches burned at this place. However they have by their unceasing efforts rebuilt every time. They now have a $1,500 house here just completed a few months ago. The church is built in an ideal place and a bet ter section of country cannot be found in the State than this Six Mile country. B. Clerka Sale State of South f aroina. County of Pickens.
