Mr. P. R. Watus, of Modos, j
came over on Saturday last^for
his daughter, Miss Eva, who had
been attending the summer school.
He reports the crops in his section
of the county to be very good . The
rains have come just as they were
needed.
Mr. Floyd Davis stopped ovei
in Edgefield for several days while
en route from Nashville to his
father's home near Richardson

ting from a business college- in
Nashville Floyd accepted a posi
tion as book-keeper with a large
telephone company.
Miss Minnie Lanham and lit
tle Helen Dorn r elurned ou
Suoday after a delightful visit of
a month to Mr. and Mrs. Thos.
B. Lanham at Harrodsburg, Ky.
Sweet and pretty little Miss Ethel

so.
Some weeks ago handsome
young Pat Blalcck, to use the ver
nacular of the street, was consid
erably under the weather, but h?
bas suddenly h?.d the bloom of
youth restored to his cheeks.
Whence this magic cure? Can jti
be because he bas resumed his vis
its to Buncombe, by night as well
as by day, where the atmosphere j
is as pure as aro the mountain
zephyrs.
In spite of the rain and lower
ing clouds the ladies of the Edge
field Literary Club sold ?*.ll of
their refreshments on Thursday
eveuing last at the home of Mr.:
and Mrs. B. B. Jones, realizing
the sum of $14 net. The occasion
was so thoroughly enjoyed that
many have expressed the hope
that these ladies will give another
festival before many days pa?s.
Mr. R. H. Mims took several
splendid pictures of groups of the
summer school. In one group there
were exactly thirteen young ladies,
one of whom objected strenuously
to being photographed as one of
thirteen. Mr. Mims assured her
that he would be respousible for
all damages that might arise from
such a cause. This allayed her
fears and the picture was taken.
Edgefield's crop of babies had
been very satisfactory this year.
Two birth? a day is a good show
ing for a town this size, Probably

nursag is not equal to the demand.
However, the soothing syrup and
goddart and carriage dealers have
replenished their stocks.
The duller the days the hard
Mr. J. Hubenstein works and t
more he advertises. As a result
is selling the goods.

Our pretty young friends froi

A New York judge has decide
that a newspaper is not lega ll

Notwithstanding the fact tha
the summer girl wears BO fei
clothes, and those few are vcr
filmy and gauzy, yet it require
about fourteen trunks to trane
port her wardrobe to the seashore

place.
The Edgefield merchants' hav
only sold about one fifth as mud
corn as they did last year. Fron
the present outlook, however, i
appears that a much larger quao
tity will be sojd next year. Ha<
it cot been for the latter rains tb
corn crop would be almost a tota
failure in many sections.
We conversed with several rep
resentative citizens from differen
sections.of the county concerning
the liquor question on Saturday
last, three of whom were formerly
very ardent supporters of the dis
peusary. T?ese geutlemeu al
agreed that the dispensary woulc
be voted out three to oue.
On July the 4th there arrived "i
little son at the hope o:
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Peak, and s
little daughter at the home of Mr
and Mrs. W. A. Byrd. Mastei
Peak has already made an engage

The members of the Chronich
staff have ali hied themselvee

The gospel of happiness is one
that every woman should lay tc
heart. What it means to a man tc
come home at night to a cheerful
wife no one but he who has had
io fight the hard battle of life
knowe. If he is prosperous, it is
an added joy; but it is in mis
fortune that it shines like a star
in the darkness. A complaining
wife eau kill the last bit of hope
and courage in a sorely troubled
heart, while a cheerful one gives
new courage ;o begin the fight
over again.-Ex.
Mr. W. G. Reynolds, the new
night superintendent of the cot
tou mill, has arrived and has en
tered upon the discharge of his
duties. He is a practical and very
successful mill mau, having
Btudied the business since he was
nine years of age. Mr. Reynolds
came from Concord N". C., where
he has been in the employ of a
large mill. He will bring his
family from Concord to reside in
Edgefield, and we trust that hey
will make our towu thoir perma
nent home.
Mr. J. Frauk Fair has been
spending several days with his
auut, Mrs. N. L. Brunson and
sisters, Misses Kellah and Mary
Fair. Since going to Atlanta
Frank has climbed the ladder of
success by leaps and bouuds. Ho
is 30W secretary and treasurer of
a large wholesale grocery concern,
whose enormous business aggre
gates three fourths .of a million
dollars per annum. Frank's life
is entirely too strenuous however.
H?B Edgefieldjfrieods and relatives
are not at all satisfied with a
visit of three short days.
Cashier W. Ho'loway Harling,
accompanied by Mrs. Harling and
the little ones, attended a neigh
borhood picuic at his old home
near Berea ou Friday last. The
occasion afforded an opportunity
for the coming trgether of the old
as well as the young for miles
around. In addition to the usual
picnic dinner barbecued meats
were a part of the menu. Despite
the heat and perspiration, the
young people tripped the light
fantastic, until lengthening shad
ows betokened the approach of
nightfall, upon a pavillion that
had been provided for the purpose.
These small picnics, at which
friends and neighbors are brought
ia close personal contact, fill a
niche in the social life of a com
munity that naught else can fill.
They should he m.ada annual oc
casions.
A great maDy farmers are more
alarmed over the fact that cotton
is blooming near the top than
they are over the "leak" in the
agricultural department. Quite a
number of farmers have called
our attention to the height of
cotton blooms from the ground,
expressing the belief that the
"bottom" crop will be very light.
Did you ever before see cotton
bloom in the top early in July?
On Saturday last our town was
thoroughly alive with dozens of
the pretty young teachers who had
just completed the month's course
at the summer 6chool. They were
hurrying hither and thither, shop-J
ping and bidding adieu to friends
before departing for their homes.
We shall.'greatly miss these young,
ladies, also young Pat Bussey who
was the only male teacher, if we
have been correctly informed, in
attendance upon the summer
school. Young Mr. Bussey is a
most exemplary young man, and
fortunate indeed will be the pa
trons who secure his service as
teacher.

Gibson-Clyburn.
On Thursday, July 20th, at
8:30 p. m., there will be a quiet
home wedding in Atlanta in which
Edgefield feels thn keenest inter
est. On this date Miss Louise Holt
Gibson, the only daughter of Mrs.
S. B. Gibson, will be married to
Mr. William Clyburn who was
formerly from Kershaw, S. C.
The marriage will bo solemnized
at the home of the bride's mother.
10 Woodward Ave., only a few
near relatives and friends being
present. The cermony will be per
formed by Rev." T. H. Gibson,
a cousin of the bride.
Miss Louise spent the happy
days of childhood and girlhood
in our town, where she waB uni
versally beloved. Her hundreds
of Edgefield friends still have an
abiding affection for her, and ex
tend congratulations in advance
with the wish that her future bei
one of unalloyed happiness.
Adams-Getzen.
.To-day at Fort White, Fla., a
highly esteemed son of old Edge
field couuty will lead to the altar
a fair young daughter of the "Land
of Flow TP," whose ancestors were
originally from thiB county-Dr.
B. M. Adams, the only son of Mr.
and Mrs. J. B. Adams, will wed
Miss Maude Getzen, the youngest
daughter of Capt. and Mrs. T. W.
Gjtzen, and the grand-daughter of
the late Rev. S. P. Getzen, who
for a number of years was'a very
active and useful pastor in this
county.
We can scarcely ?ealize that our
esteemed young friend is married,
being only a few years a student
of *.he S. C. C. I. He is now a
full ^fledged physiciau, having
graduated in May from the Geor
gia Medical college. His bride is
a very accomplished young lady
and will be a valuable acquisition
to Edgefield society. Dr. and MrB.
Adams will reside near Lenoir in
the southern part of the county.
We make a specialty of framing
Diplomas, odd size pictures etc.

Testimony ol a Thoughtful Man.
A gentleman who resides twelve
miles north of the county seat said
to the writer ? few days ago: "If
we do not get rid of the dispensa
ry I do not Bee what is to become
of the boys and young men in the
country. A young man who likes
whiskey will go to Edgefield and
buy a half gallon of mean liquor j
for eighty ceutB, and bring it home
and demoralize half a dozen boys
with it. Often they carry it to
church on Sunday and drink it
out in the bushes. You all in the
towns do not see near the evil
from the dispensary that we do
who live in the country. The old
bar rooms corrupted the towus
but the dispensary is corrupting
the country people." The condi
tion set forth in the foregoing is
what this thoughtful and very
reliable citizen haa seen with his
own eyes-not what he has heard.
Are the people of Edgefield
couuty willing, for the few dol
lars that are paid into the public
treasury by the dispensary, to
stand by and see the boyB and
young men of the country thus
debased and debauched. We do
not believe that they are. Father,
who knows but what if this de
plorable condition continues,
your bright boy will become a
victim of this forty-cents-per
quart corn liquor. Aid in stamp
ing it out before he suffers from
its blighting influence.

Words Fitly Spoken.
Rev- B. J. Woodward, of .North
Augusta, who preached two very
able sermons from the Baptist
pulpit on Sunday last, in speak
ing of how utterly worthless are
some young men, by reason ot
their having been reared in ease
a*?il luxury, said: "Tbe^ best,
thKgg for a young man is an
abundance of work and some
poverty. If you would make a
true man of a boy give him some
thing to do." No truer words
were ever^spoken.
Next in importance lo giving
the boy employment is making
the girls Bhare in the household
duties and responsibilities. The
young girl who is reared with
idle hands, and later in life be
comes the head of a household,
the mother of a family, and is
totally ignorant of the duties that
devolve upon her in that position
has our profouud pity an/ sym
pathy. Parents, teach your chil
dren to do something whether
they have it to do or not"

Death of Miss Elizabeth Day.
Entombed in the newly made
grave in Ebenezer cemetery at
Trenton lies the mortal body of
Miss Elizabeth Day, where it was
tenderly, lovingly placed by sor
rowing friends on Sunday after
noon last. For many mouths this
good woman was a patient Buffer
er; but on Saturday afternoon
"There fell upon the house a sud
den gloom,
A shadow on those features fair and
thin;
And softly from the hushed and
darkened room,
Two angels issued , where but one
went in." ,
The Day family in Edgefield.
county has always had stamped
upon its escutcheon the hall-mark
of gentility, culture, refinement;
honor, lofty aims and purposes,'
and not oue word or deed of the
deceased has detracted aught from
this priceless heritage. On the
contrary, in her quiet, sweet,
gent?o way she has given added
lustre and honor to the name
which she bnre. As a Christian her
life was singularly beautiful and
cousecrated. The loss to her church
the Church of our Saviour at
Trenton, will be keenly felt.
The Episcopal rector, Rev. Mr.
Prentiss, read the burial service,
and, by special request, Mrs. R.

Eliza Mims and Mr. Geo. F.~
