Reports Trom Orangeburg saythat John Lloyd Saturday night shot and seriously wounded Julius Harri- 1 son, whom he accused of interfering with his family. Harrison until a few , months ago was a foreman at the Lancaster cotton mill and went to i ' Orangeburg only a few days before j the shooting. Harrison's father 1 said according to the reports, that | Lloyd's accusations, based primarily j ' upon (fcfe ago mobile trip to Augusta, were it foundation. Harrison i ;it the hospital, said Lloyd >M l.i ' 1 >10 had killed throe men and ho " in i the fourth. Harrison was a boarde: at Lloyd's home when the shooting ; occurred. < 'hilstmns Program 1st t'hur^li Lan- 1 caster. ^ ' The junior organizations of the Kirst lfciptist church, gave a very I interesting program in the church j I auditorium Sunday evening. Decern-j I ** her 1!>. The program consisted of | 1 ^ Christmas songs, recitations and dia- ' logues by tlie Sunlieams, tire Q. A.'s ; und Y. W. A.'s. The Royal Ambas- ! sadors bad a short exercise repre- j wonting the "Three Wise Men" in l search of the "Young Christ,"' and < the shepherds to whom the angel ap- . peered. Under the leadership and i "truinimr nl' \1 ro i ? ??<???? ? r* i? io ?>? -% 3;ram was eagerly prepared. The in- < terested manner in which these young folk entered into the preparation of the exercises made the work of training very interesting indeed. The Royal Ambassadors showed the true yopirn. of a loyal soldier in netting t up their part, for besides having only, \ <one short week in which to learn 4 their parts and practice, some of (1heir number were sick and substitutes had to be made, even at the last meeting, but not one time did we hear, "we yill have to give it up," "no . V use trying, we can't have it." Rue' this is what we heard, "I'll take his part and do the best I can." It was not the amount of practice they had but the pure determination not to give up that helped them carry t.

It has never been our privilege to see n bo many boys and girls so eagerly at C work in the King's business, as arei a these splendid boys and girls of First | a church, Lancaster.

U. quarterly j meeting, division one, which was held ?i at Flat Creek, Saturday Dec. 4. 1' While our delegation was not f nearly so large as at the mooting in t the second division, the program was v in every wav as interesting and those 1 present entered into the service in a e true Christian spirit. ' t Mrs. \V. C. Kills, president of di- T vision one, presided, opening the I meeting with appropriate devotional d exercises. I a It was both interesting and en- I1 rouraging to notice that every young' woman who was on the program was there ready to do her part, and did it I In an eager, earnest way. Hut we I were sorry to note that several of the alder women were not there to round when their names were called. ^ Yhe girls quartet from Heath Springs and Mrs. J. S. Corpening s from Kaneaster. furnished special music Tor the occasion. These song messages made more impressive the ather messages we received. a We have noticed often that the in- I lerest in our meetings lags quite a! bit in the afternoon after the ladies liave partaken so heartily of the bountiful dinner which is sure to he '' . . . - - r served hy our hostesses. Isut be n mid Tni tho credit of tho Heath Spring Y. \V.

Throe young women from Heaver a 'reek church, two of whom were on t he program, became so interested in his work, that they asked that the ^ Text quarterly meeting he with them in the Heaver Creek church. We gladly accepted their kind and eager invitation. Tho closing session was a very fit ! Itng one for such a program as we f had had. Mrs. Payseur presided and h Rave ull an opportunity to tell in what manner the meeting had helped ^ her. We were glad to hear all who ipoke. but especially did we appreci- ^ ate the earnest words of our young n iiusuallv Merry 9 e it marks the A unusually happy 11 ar. t to you who have in adding to our h ! for each oppor- " id and may have rs. ! ?
