"A Irflj to Lancaster." I' Visitor Tells of Fine Crops And Splendid Schools and Churches He Saw on Trip to Dixie. 1W U 1- 1 vyaut. ?? . AX. in fit? I Chester Reporter : i leli Chester j on t he morning t r <jn for Lancaster ? on Monday the 12ih insi , where I arriveii about 11:30 a. m. In i the afternoon 1 procured a team and drove out about eight miles ( into what is known as the Dixie section of Lancaster county, which is now a very prosperous , community. The fields of corn ^ and cotton<on tlie road give evidence of good farming and promise of abundant harvest. I don't j suppose liner corn was ever grown on the land in all its history in past years. The land in . this section of the countrv in ( former years was not regarded as of high value for agricultural purposes, but of late years under the improved system of lanuing it produces liberally. That community gives evidence of growth and progress along moral and educational line*. I passed two splendid school houses in three miles of each other. One of them was at An tioch Baptist church, and the other wiu* the Dixie school at Hopewell Methodist church. 1; is certainly healthy for any community when you can see the church and the school house standing near each other. The Dixie schoolhouee is large, well ventilated, good boating arrangements, good desk seats, and ft rostrum for the teacher. It is a treat to visit in the homes of these warm hearted, hospitable people. They don't put on stuck-up airs, but they put on the pots witn plenty 01 good things to eat in them, and .givetyou nice clean beds to sleep 'OP. The old Confederate soldiers-of Lancaster county will hold their annual reunion and h ive a big picnic dinner at Carton's school-; house inithe Fork IJill neighborly hood on Thursday, the 22nd in*t. Kvery county in the state might profitably and pleasautly hold these reunions. The old soldiers niaii&i:? and control these meet inas to suit themselves. Chester Physician Dead. ?
