Lowndesville, July 25th, 1914. Mr. R. E. Moseley, of Anderson, came down today was a week ago (his family had been with relatives here about two weeks) and returned to his home the next day. Mr. Hetiry Harper, of Anderson, came down in an auto Saturday night, after the business hours ended for the day. Mr. J. F. Barnes and little 6on came in Sunday. The first is the assistant cashier of the Bank of Royston, Ga. They were here for several days with kinspeople, Mr. D. M. Lipscomb and four of his children, of Ninety-Six, came over last Sunday, leaving their home to come in an auto and get here in time to attend the Sunday School exercises in the Methodist Church which began at 10 a. m. It is a little unusual for little fellows to come j that distance. 40 miles, and attend Sundav School. Mr. Jas. M. Baker, of Washington, D. C., came in last Sunday and remained here for several days, looking after his inter ests in and around this place. Mr. John A. Horton, of Belton, who is a candidate from the Third District for Con gress, was In this place Monday forming ing new acquaintances, and no doubt mak ing friends. Miss Lizzie Nance, of Abbeville, came over Monday and called upon some of her many friends here. She was the guest of Mr. Charles Clinkscales till Tuesday, when she went over to the homo of her brother, Mr. Enoch Nance, three miles out, where siie spent a few days. Last Sunday was the day set apart for the observance of Children's Day at the Ridpre. An cnusually largo crowd was present, and those in charge of the inter esting services had managed wonderfully well. As the writer was denied tho privi lege of being preseat, he can but say that from reports he missed a great treat, and can only report what is said by others. Miss Bertha Boles, with some able andef ilcient assistants, made of it a complete success. a no uttie ioik, in wnose nonor and for whose benefit the day is celebrat ed, were well trained and acted their parts to perfection. It was a very pleasant oc casion, all enjoyed and will long remem ber it. At its close a collection wajj taken up, called the Children's Day funcf, which amounted to $12.50. There were two shootings near here about a week ago. The one, Jess Frazier, Sir. T. D. Cooley's drayman, after the day's work was over last Saturday night, started out on a lark. While he is careful not to overload the mules that he works, at that time put on, or rather in, too much of Saturday night booze. After getting beyond the town limits he met three oth i ors, perhaps internally in the same lis- j | Joss and one of them got mixed up in a: little rucus and was shot twice and fell in j [ the road. The others did not wait to see if ! | he was dead or not, but at once left. An other fellow camo along, found him lying in the road, picked him up and carried him to a near-by house. The next night, Sharpe Robinson and a woman started to preaching, met Walter Pat who objected to him being with that woman and drew his gun and fired twice. Sharpe was not 1 . ' _ vL"- : .

's n Editor Press and Banner: There is an honest man who doesn't want to be satisfied. He wants to go to Heaven mainly because he thinks he can't get there, but if St. Peter should suddenly open the door and say "Walk in, I've found a seat for you at last," this same fellow would hang around the gate an argue that the seat might not be good enough. So now when it is clear that an average of six more oudIIs in each school In South k Carolina would take care of the 40,000 children that a compulsory attendance law would put Into the schools, everybody will a admit that our schools are ready for them e now, unless perhaps it bo the man who g would stop outside the pearly gates in the t rain to make SHre that the seats were just r right and there was no leak in the roof of heaven. Those parents who love their children 3 most are the kind who would rather see them sit on dry goods boxes or nail kegs, learning something, until benches or desks 3 could be made, than to think of their ch.il r dren sitting at the rock pile later ion, 1 through ignorance, or at best sweating for ) a lifetime as the laborer of the playmate t who gut more education. But, Mr. Editor, . why argue when nearly all our people are now agreeing that we must have com r pulsory education ? j Our Southern neighbors in Tennessee passed a state wide law last year and here is what State Superintendent Samuel H 1 Thompson says about it in a letter of July 1 10th: ^ ''I do believe that education in Tennes see has made greater progress under the compulsory euuuauou iuw. huwbvui, i<uis> has been in effect only one year. Mauy of - our County Superintendents have report ) ed to this office that their average daily attendance was increased during the year about 25 per cent. , "I am unable to say, at this time, about the attendance of the Negroes, but I am inclined to think that the increase in ' averago daily attendance was greater pro portionately among the whites than it was among the Negroes. 1 "Our people, in general, seem very well pleased with the compulsory law and are not trying to get It repealed."
