" : ;
Wednesday, June 1,1910.
The 6raded and High School CloseTbe
city schools closed for the scholastic
year on last Friday. There was no
graduating class this year, this was due
to the fact that one more grade has been
added to the schools which makes a total
of eleven! now instead of 10 grades as
before, and the present 10th. grade instead
of being graduated are promoted
totheelventh grade.
The graduating exercises were held in
the Opera House as usual. Dr. Wilkins
of the Baptist church opened the exercises
with prayer. The speaker of. the
occassion was Mr. Hugh Haynsworth of
Sumter, a former pupil of Prof. Dick.
Mr. Haynsworth is a very nleasant
speaker, while he does not resort to
pyrotechnics yet his voice is easily
heard in all parts of the theatre. He
impresses one as Toeing more interested
in having something to say rather than
in the manner to say it. He took for
his subject "The Preservation of Our
History." His speech was listened to
with rapt attention and it made a most
favorable Impression on those who heard
him. He taught us a lesson that all of
' j us should learn. Unless we chronicle
^ .the achievements of the past, who will
do it for us? Will some one from another
oountry, fired with the glory of our past
write of us so that. we may not be forf
- gotten by our posterity? It is a duty we
owe ourselves and a duty we owe our
posterity. Mr. Haynesworth selected a
fruitful theme and handled it well.
After the orator of the occasion had
finished the Superintendent introduced
the contestants for the, declamation
medal. Mr. Cecil Cromer was first introduced,
his subject was "Now." Mr.
Cromer Is a brother of Mr. Hugh Cromer
who won the first medal offered for declamation
by Mr. Allen SmltB, Sr. The
J.I J- 1 ? ? ... - -
iuouoi w suown as me smitn medal. '1 he
seoond speaker was Mr. Leslie McMillan,
whose subject.was "America's Greatness,"
' a grekt 'Subject and was well spoken. The
other speaker for the .declamation was
Mr.Ralph Adams and his subject was
T "Nations aad humanity." These .young
men had thoroughly prepared their
? peiqe and spoke them splendidly. The
t judges in awarding the prizes gave the
W declamation medal to Mr. Leslie McMillan
*, The next contest was the elocution
contest. Dr. P. B, Speed offered the
medal for the best elocutionist in the
class. The first young lady introduced
was Miss Marie Barnette, her subjeot
was "Old Ace." She was followed by
Miss Jiou El len McFali who recited "The
Whistling Begiment," and lastly came
Esther Graydon. Miss Graydop's
subject p*B the "Bioux Chief's Daughter,"
a stirWng peloe of "' composition. All of
these young ladles pleased the audience
with their peices. They should feel
. highly, complimented to hear the many
expressions of admiration for their part
of the qpfcertalnment. The judges awarded
the elocution medal to Miss Esther
5 Graydon.
One. of the interesting features of the
oooaalon was the reading of the honor
rolls. - Tne superintendent maae out
five honor rolls as follows: Those pupils
" who were not tardy during the year;
v> those ' ,who were not absent during the
year;'those who were neither tardy nor
absent during the year; those who made
an average of 95 and over for the entire
year and those who made an average of
90 to 95 during the term. The reading of
these lists was listened to with rapt attention,
on the part of the pupils especially.
A notable feature was the High School
- Orchestra which furnished music for the
occasion. The leader of the Orchestra,
Mr. Alex Dick, in addition to his many
othe^talents is interested in music and
has organized a school orchestra which
has been a great addition to the public
entertainment of the school.
Death of Dr. A. B. C. Lindsay.
Dr.'A. B. C. Lindsay, a well-known resident
of this town, died last Saturday morning
after an Illness of a few days. He was
70 years of age and belonged to one of the
old families of Abbeville County:
The body was taken to Due West Sabbath
for interment, and will be laid alongside
his relatives in'the A. R. Presbyterian
churchyard. Mrs. Lindsay has the sympathy
of the people of the community in
her bereavement Mr. and Mrs. Lindsay
Wilson, of Rome, Ga., Dr. and Mrs. Abercrombie,
of Dallas, Ga., and Idrs. Davis, of
Greenville, were among the residents of
other/towns who gathered at the home to
pay tlie last tribute of respect to him. He
belonged to the old school of gentlemen,
and his friends here and in Due West were
saddened when it was announced that he
had p^ssea away.
Dr.JLindsay was a doas Of ''Squire" Jas.
Lindsby.vwho lived near Due West and
who donated to Erekine College a large
part, if not:ioll, of the land now included
in the campus of that institution. He
built the old Lindsay Hall which formerly
stood between the College building and the
Boys' Dormitory, and Dr. A. C. B. Lindsay
as a boy assisted the workmen in erecting
that building; he possessed for many years
a trowel used In placing the brick in the
walls of that old hall which many of the
older people of the county recall with
pleasant memories.
Forty-six years ago Dr. A. B. C. Lindsay
was married to Miss Martha Clark McCaslan.
Dr. Lindsay was intimately acquainted
with the older, families around Due
West land loved to speak of the companions
of hi| young manhood, and had many in
terespng'experiences'*) relate or incidents
that happened during and after the war in
which he was a soldier. After the war he
engaged in farming for a time in the Cleai
Sprin&s neighborhood and was a planter ol
no mean skill, carrying off niany prizes ic
the fairs that were held at Abbeville. He
was of quiet retiring disposition, and will
be missed by his friends here. No Sig.

Cotton Mill For Abbeville.
Some weeks ago Mr. W. K. Stringer of
Belton proposed to the people of Abbeville,
if they would raise a certain sum of money
he thought he could raise by individual
subscription and by the subscriptions of
his friends sufficient to build a cotton mill
at Abbeville. The people of Abbeville
promptly raised the required amount and
a conference was arranged with Mr. Stringer.
In this conference Mr. Stringer frankly
admitted that he could not fulfill his
part of the agreement.
While our people regret the Inability of
Mr. Stringer to carry through the work,
they are glad to have our fellow townsman
Mr. J. Allen Smith come to the rescue,
and take up the work where he left
off.
When the proposed mill is in operation,
there will be plenty of room here for another,
and we will meet another proposition
from Mr. Stringer should he see fit
to make it.
Mr. J. Allen Smith, who for some time
contemplated building a mill gracefully,
acquiesced in the movement by Mr. Stringer,
and subscribed liberaley thereto. He
realized the importance of the mill and
volunteered to take up the new subscription,
and carry the mill to completion.
Application has been made for a character
Mr Smith is a man of wide financial ex
perience, and with his ability, energy and
abundant capital the mill will be pushed
to successful completion.!
A most economical and business like administration
of the affairs of the mill is
guaranted.
Feeling sure that the best interest of the
community will be promoted by the work
in Mr. Smiths hands, the Press and Eanner
congratulates the citizens of Abbeville
on their good fortune in his undertaking
tHs work, which greatly tends to the up
lift of the town.
Now that the work is about to be begun,
let everybody put a shoulder to the wheel
and help to bring it to completion.
^nless another mill is put in operation
now, the town will go backward--we will
hot even mark time.
In the small town of -Easley with a population
of less than 1200, outside of the
mill population, there are three cottoa
mills, all prospering. Will Abbeville, with
a population of 6000, halt when Its capacity
i6 so much greater, and when the needs of
the hour are so apparent.
New Drug Company Opens Today.
The new drug company, incorporated
as the Abbeville Drug: Co., opened today.
They are occupying the corner store, formerly
occupied by Meros, the candy man.
Meros goes back to his old stand.
The young men Incorporators of the
company, are live business men, and in
every wuy Identified with the interests of
the town.
A Preventable Nuisance.
Not long since an Abbeville Physician
was called to 6ee a patient who bad contracted
in some way a fever. Upon diegnosis
it was found to be typhoid. The physician
at onoe began to examine the premesis
for the source of infection. He analyzed
| the "water, he examined the food
supply, he went over the premises thoroughly
but could detect no probable source
of the disease.
The case wore out its weary length but
before the patient was free of fever a
neighbor only a few hundred yards up the
road was stricken with fever also. Diegnosis
proved this case to be typhoid also.
Again the physician made an effort to
discover the source of the germs but failed
to find any clue to the origin of the
disease. Not long afterward, a little farther
on the same road another ease of typhoid
fever developed, and again the physician
went to wprk to discover the cause,
but his search was fruitless.
Here were three cases of typhoid fever
in a row. They were only a short distance
apart and yet no source of contagion could
be discovered.
The pnvsician in cnarge 01 uih cases
charged the spread of the diseaao to the
house fly. The fly came and went ad libitum
between these homes and thus the
deadly germs were taken from one patient
to the other.
The House fly is so small, so friendly,
so domestic, so universal that we look on
him as a part of the house-hold, a sort of
.acolyte to all homes. We do not stop to
meditate on his hideousness, his impertinence
and brass, his filthy, uncleanly, incorrigible
habits or we would banish him
from the home.
The Honse fly is an unmutlgated abomination
with his ugly proboscis protuding
h ir a an alpnhants snout to touch and con
taminate everything he comes In contact
with. With his ugly hairy legs envenomed
with malaria, misma, fever, and filth he Is
an ogre to be shuuned.
We should all chip in and havo some
skilful artisan to construct a model of the
amiable little Housefly enlarged 10,0000
' just as he is in all his hideous glory, probuscl8,
hairs, bugs, germs, microbis, micrococci,
and all, and place the insinuating
scoundrel on a pedestal where we might
all get a look at him from time to time.
There is much for us to accomplish in
this generation and one of the importan*Vitnrra

mestica."
If we could see the fly as he is we would
not stop until we had screened every door
and window in our homes and removed
all breeding places of this plague.
1 Our Physicians tell us about the fly but
the most of us pay no attention to what
they say. We are all from Missouri, we
must he shown, but from time to time the
1 dreaded typhoid is teaching us lessons.
1 Line upon line, precept upon precept, here
a little and there a little, we are all learning
the lesson. Some has placed the House
fly in tha same category with fleas, bed
bugs, snakes and other snch cattle, and
the sooner we all do so the better for us.

is that the ground may be broken whi
the season is in it, at which time the lar

than when it is not in season.
As a matter of fact very few farms
Abbeville County are broken in the ft
of the year. Very few farms are broke
deeply at any time. All farmers realize tl
benefit, the necessity of deep breakin
but not all are able to break their far a
thus.
Many men who have not the faciliti
for breaking their land would be willii
to pay another man to do it for them
they ever met with such a propositio
We are anxious to see some enterpri

The Care of The Drinking Water Suppl
Health is of first importance in all occ
pations, since it governs the ability of t
individual to do work. The progressh
ne6s of a community is governed by i
healthfulness, and this healtlifulneae
measured largely, directly or indirect!
by the purity of its drinking water. J
most our entire rural population and t
inhabitants of a majority of our smi
towns get their supply of drinking" wat
from springs or from shallow wells. It
to call attention to the often improper si
roundings of these sources of drinkti
water that this article is written.
The principal diseases supposed to 1
commnnicable through thedrinmugwat
are typhoid fever, cholera, dysontery ai
other diarrhoeal affections, cholera Infa
turn,' animal parasitic diseases, enter
fevers soarlot fever. Of the diseases me
tloned typhoid fever oholera, dysenter
cholera Infantum and scarlet fever m?
also be carried by milk; entoric fever ai
typhoid by flies;, and typhoid by raw oy
ters and raw fruit. In order that the wat
supply or any of the other agoncious me
tioned may carry these diseases it is fir
necessary for them to become infect*
wittf the specific infection which commui
cates the disease. The infection of all
the sources mentioned except mosquito<
is derived from the ejecta of a patient si
ferlng from the disease.
It is a fact proven by statistics that tl
water borne diseases befirin to increase
July and are at their maximum durii
Augnst and September, decreasing in C
tober.
The Spring.?The ideal conditions f
the spring are that its watershed is uni
habited, that the watershed does not co
tain stables, barnyards, pig pens, privk
cesspools or cemeteries; and it shpuhl n
be traversed by railroads nor hlghwa
for all of these make infection possib
The freedom from all of these objectlo
is not always obtainable. The eprii

to carry off all of the surface water, bo
during a downpour of rain and from pon
ed areas, and never allow It to be ovt
flowed and filled with tilth or trash of ai
kind. The surroundings must be scrupi
ously clean. The spring itself should
walled with rock and covered to preve
trash from falling into it.
The Well?Too many of our wells a
located In the barnyard, in order th
water may be convenient for the stoc
regardless of sanitary conditions. T
source of the drinking water for the faml
should be removed from any such possit
danger of infection. The well should
located on a well drained area, rerac
from barns, pig pens, privies, cesspoo
cemeteries or drains, and should become
ted from the edge outward to the distan
of several feet. Above the surface of tl
cement, a tight box should bo built and
tight fitting cover provided, if buckets a
used. The pump Is much to be preferr
to the' bucket because it lessens the dang
of trash falling into the well. All was
watei should be drained off and no wat
allowed to spill back into the well. ]
puddles should be allowed to form near
in which hogs might wallow. The hog
