fair, when Cupid is a swift and
. * sure messenger between them.
?Magistrate W. P. Caskey

College, his alma mater, to
make the principal speech at
the dedication of that society's
w new hall at the next commence*

?We have a boys' corn club
in the county which has been
productive of so much good that
we suggest to Superintendent
of Education Rowell and Farm
Demonstrator McManus, or any
one else who will join in the
movement, to get the girls of
the county into a tomato club.
We believe the girls can do better
even than the boys.
?Yes, it was pretty" cold
Thursday and Friday, but
nothing to be compared with
this time last year, when the
mercury went down to something
like ten above zero. The
** lowest this spell was 25 above.
In this connection, it may be
well to remember that we are to
have, some time this year, 9
inches of rainfall to make up

Trains Collide.
Early Thursday morning an
Atlantic Coast Line freight
train ran into a Southern
-i. ? "
ireigm >n Liie crossing 01 tne |
two roads at Camden Junction. .
Several cars on both trains j
were smashed and the tracks j
considerably torn up. The engineer
on the Coast Line train j
was painfully but not seriously .
injured. When he saw that 1
the collision was inevitable, he <
jumped for his life. The engine
turned completely over. In |
consequence of the condition of '
the track, the Coast Line's j
train had to be routed around ]
by Kingville, both to and from j
Columbia. ~~~
By reason of the wreck the (
Southern's northbound train <
Thursday night and the one j
Friday morning were consider- ,
ably late. The tracks have ,
been put in repair and the
trains are now running on
schedule time. ,
Mr. E. K. Plyler Badly Burned. '
We regret to hear of the
painful accident which recently J
befell Mr. E. K. Plyler, an aged
and respected citizen of the ex- [
treme northeast section of the j
county. We clip the following
particulars from The Monroe *
Enquirer: ,
"Mr. E. K. Plyler, an aged
citizen of Buford township,
came very near being burned
to death a few days ago. He j
was alone in a room and in some ]
manner his clothing caught on
fire and his feet and legs were
burned terribly. Mr. Plyler
suffered a stroke of paralysis
several months ago and it was
with great difficulty that he 1
could walk before he suffered !
the burns and now he is entire- '
ly helpless. Mr. Plyler is a '
good citizen and has many ~
friends." |
