Hoyt, is arranging for ?. county to county good roads, campaign during the summer. This is a very commendable undertak ing, one from which lasting benefit will result. It appears now that there will be on ly three candidates fir the legislature, and The Advertiser predicts that the campaign will be conducted upon a high; plane, being orderly, elevating and educating in its tendency. Two more weeks remain in which corn can be safely planted. If you are in doubt about making a sufficient quantity to "do" you, better plant sev eral acres more. Remember this, that you can't make too much. What your cribs will not hold can be sold at a good price. Corn culture is receiving attention throughout the entire south now as never before. The Georgia Bankers' Association has offered a trip to Wash ington of a week's duration as a prize to the Georgia boy who/grows the greatest number of bushels of corn upon one acre of land. The proverbial "Atlanta spirit" is frequently synonymous with "public spirit.'*' instances are ; frequently recorded in the papers of the public spirit of the people of the Gate City. Last week when the state bank ers were in convention, the committee on hospitality called upon the owners of automobiles to lend their machines for a certain afternoon that the visitors might be shown over the city, aud 15-j automobiles responded. What a gene eral and very generous response! That is the spirit that builds cities; that is what made Atlanta. Pleasant Outing at Rehoboth and v Cleora. s j Mr. Editor: We will try to giv< you a 'brief description of our pleas ant week's visit in the country. We spent, .last Monday and Tues day with Misses Maggie Winn an( Kittie Lou Hughey near Rehoboth Monday afternoon, we with severa boys and girls went to the woods t< find huckleberries. I never saw s< much fruit before. Not only wer there plenty of huckleberries bu also plums, peaches and apples. Th rest of the time was spent in hors back riding and such like, havin? grand times such as only the gooi old country can afford. We then bade farewell to ol Rehoboth and spent Wednesday Thursday and Friday with Miss< Grace Williams and Janie Reel c Cleora. While there we went fishin on Turkey Creek. We did ^not cate any fish but I think it was the lac of patience. Not vone in the crow was the least provoked at such lue for immediately we all decided 1 try our luck on dry iand, and v are-inclined to think two out of tl crowd succeeded. Memories of the past week's vie will be cherished by ns throuj many years to come. ' We returned to Edgefield Satu day. May health ind happiness alwa be thine. ' M. & L. Missionary Anniversary at Tre ton. (Contributed.) The seventh nnniversary of t organization of the Woman's M si onary Society of Ebenezer chur was observed on last Sunday wi appropriate exercises. The serm was preaohed at ll o'clock by t pastor, Rev. Mr. Graves Knig] who chose for his theme the 1 and character of "Dorcas, a worn full of good works and almsdeed He pointed out the most import) spheres of woman's work to be the home and in the church. I description of an ideal home wh parents and children exalt Chi above everything else and worsl Him alone, was very touching i beautiful. f It was shown in his remarks t tbe-mission society had mad( good record during the. past ye? having met it apportionments i increased in interest. At the close of the splendid ? mon Mrs. John R. Tompkins, Edgefield, sang a most beauti selection, carrying in its sweetn and tenderness a comforting and suring message. When the morning session c? to an end dinner was served on ground. It was a feast of g things such as Trenton ladies ki so well how to prepare, and for which they haye become famous.. . Mr. John D. 'Hughey," bf Reho both, addressed the audience in the afternoon. He gave a suzv.y of woman's Work for missionsih piir state and county, frorri theT>egin ning to the present day. .The infor mation he gave was interesting and valuable and showed his wide knowl edge of the work." Prof. G. F. Long in a few well chosen remarks illustrated by two beautiful word pictures the necessi ty and value /of taking Jesus as a companion in the boat [over the stormy seas of life. The meeting' closed at four o'clock and was in every respect a most delightful and profitable oc casion. The Prohibition Question. I The good people of South Caroli na, who have t?0 long been fighting to restrictthg'sale and. consumption of intoxicating liquors are .going to make a very serious mistake, , if . ?they assume tnat their labors are at an end, as, many of them seem inclined to do. . . It is a common thiiig to heai4 men say that prohibition" is now a settled' issue, and that people should, give their attention to other matters of more importance. .This suggestion appeals strongly to people who do not think; but to those who take-a correct and comprehensive view of conditions not as they would like to have them, but as they are, it ap pears only as the deceit of the ene my. The liquor question is not dead, and what is more, the probability is that it never will die. It is true that the sale pf liquor.has been out lawed in many counties of South Carolina, and it looks as if there is no probability of its revival; but this is a very deceptive appearance. The appetite for whiskey is as strong as ever, and so is the greed for the gold that is to be made by satisfying that appetite. That the whole thing will be bobbing to the fore again when those who would forbid least* suspect, is as sure as the coming of the seasons. There is no business under the sun that appeals more strongly to the cupidity and the appetites of men than does the liquor business, and herein is the secret of the tre mendous strength of the enemy to be fought. ' In communities where liquor has flowed freely until large i numbers are besodden, it is easy to arouse the public conscience to put down une evil, but so soon as the ; evil beeins to hide its head, the i public/conscience subsides, and the process starts over again.-York ville Enquirer.

Mr. A. L. Bushnel has Passed Away. The following is taken from The Augusta Chronicle of recent date: "Mr. Abner L. Bushnel died at his residence in this city, No. 1016 Ellis St., at 5:15 o'clock yesterday, after a prolonged illness of seven months. "Mr. Bushnel served gallantly in the Confederate army, enlisting at Edgefield, S. C. He came to Au gusta 19 years ago, since which time he has been a true Augustan and an esteemed citizen. "He is survived by his wife, two sons, Messrs. O, S. and H. B. Bush nel, live daughters, Mrs. L. M. Fee land, Mrs. C. D. Preacher, Misses Camilla, Sallie and Lilian Bushnel. Three sisters also survive him. "Mr. Bushnel has been a long time member of Curtis Baptist Church. He was a member of camp 435, JJ. C. V., and his surviving comrades attended his funeral in a body. "The funeral services were held at his late residence, 1016 Ellis St., at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning, May 31st, conducted by Rev. E. M. Lightfoot. The interment was at the city cemetery." Mr. Bushnel was the only broth er of Mrs. Camilla Blalock of our town, and was well known through out Edgefield county. A pathetic incident is that one year ago Mr. Bushnel purchased a Confederate uniform to wear to the great re union in Richmond. In this mem ory, of. tbe! Southern Confederacy, which he so loved, his mortal re mains lie buried. Rather Expensive. : "Runnin' one , o' them air orter m?beels do be fine sport,..
