EDGEFIELD ADVERTISER Established 1835. J. L. HIMS,.1....Editor I TERMS: One Year..._$1.50 Six Months._._.75 WEDNESDAY, JOLY 5, 1911. THE LARGEST CIRCULATION IN | EDGEFIELD COUNTY. 1,565 COPIES. The shortest life is long enough if it leads to a better, and the longest life is too short if it does not.-COL TON. Uneasy lies the head that voted to discard 80 per cent, of the text books formerly used in the public schools. Investigation Needed. Up to this time we have seen no statement from any of the members of the state board of education explaining why they voted 'to discard 80 per cent? of the text books that have been in use in the public schools. While no one has charged either directly or by implication that graft was practiced in making the contracts, yet the amount involved is too great to be allowed to pass uninvestigated. If the members who arfe responsible for the sweeping change in text books do not voluntarily publish a statement an invest: gation of the matter should be ordered by the proper authorities. Agriculture Receiving Deserved Attention. Considering the money that is being expended and the efforts that are being put forth, in the interest of the farm ers, there ought to be marked advance ment in agriculture. According to a statement given out from Washington, agricultural instruction trains have been operated over 52 of the leading railroads of the country during the fis cal year just closed. A total distance of 40,771 miles were traveled, making J lops varying from forty minutes to >;wo days. While this may be con strued as indicating that farmers need instruction, it also means that agricui culture is being appreciated and reck oned with as a business now as never before. Farmers as a class are also being respected and deferred to as never before. Wireless Equipment for Vessels. Every vessel that leaves a port of the United States, carrying as mrny as 50 passengers, must hereafter be provided with a wireless telegraph equipment sufficient to summon aid in caseof_emergency, the law making lt obligatory became effective July 1st. Failure to comply with this re quirement subjects the owners of the vessel to a fine of $5,n00. Even prior" to the invention of the f ireless tele graph there were fewer catastrophes upon sea than on land, but with the providing of a wireless equipment for every vessel the danger is reduced to a minimum. Not only is the ''wireless" cf inestimable benefit in summoning aid in cases of distress, but travel is rendered safer by reducing the liability of collision in fogs when each vessel knows the relative location of all other vessels in the same waters. PARKSVILLE NEWS, Rev. Mr. Garrett Returned! From Philadelphia. Elec tion be Held on High School. Every patriotic man and woman ought to be able to pray the fol lowing prayer: Lord God Almighty, defend our land, we beseech thee, from the secret power and the open shame of great national sins. From dishonesty and civic corruption; from all vainglory and selfish lux ury; from all cruelty and the spirit of violence; from covetousness which is idolatry; from impurity which defiles the temple of the Holy spirit, and from intemperance, which is the mother of many crimes and sorrows, good Lord de liver us and save us, and our chil dren, and our children's children in the land which Thou hast blessed with the light of pure religion: through Jesus Christ our only Saviour and Kinsr. Amen. Henry Van Dyke, the poet says: Full many'a gem of purest ray se rene, the dark unfathomed caves of ocean bears. Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, and waste its sweetness on the desert air. Parksville housewives, are not guilty of this profligacy of wasting sweetness, spoken of by the poet. In the hst two decades, we have sent out two preachers and more school teachers than any town its size in the state, and now, behold, the sweetness in the newspapers. Many of us rewspaper correspond ents of this quiet village are oomed to be literary characters of he first water. Sit in your sanctum, *r. Editor, and watch Parksville ,row, not only in a material sense, ut in a literary way, as is evidenced by the great number of us, who write for the papers from this "Burg. Rev. T. H. Garrett returned last Thursday from Philadelphia where he had been in attendance upon the great Baptist World Alliance. Fill ed with enthusiasm, he preached yesterday upon the vision of Isaiah, a sermon full of power and hope. We hope you can get him to tell something of his trip to the readers of The Advertiser. We observed in the audience at the Baptist church yesterday an old friend of other days in the person of Mrs. Lizzie Dyke. Mrs. Dyke was before marriage Miss Lizzie Cheatham, and is here on a visit to her son-in-law Mr. Jim Coleman and her grand children. Mr. J. H. Parks and wife accom panied by Miss Sallie picnicked last Thursday at Woodlawn. It is not a secret, though I possibly ought not to tell it, a young man told me, that Miss Sallie was the belle of the occasion. Mrs. Virginia Stone, Mrs. M. J. Bell with little Mary and Martha spent a pleasant day Wednesday with Mrs. J. H. Stone of Rehoboth. Mr. R. M. Hitt was happily mar ried last Thursday to Miss Weino na Strom, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. Strom. They took the train at Parksville for Asheville and other points of interest, after which they will be at home to their friends at Aiken. Mr. Hitt is editor of the Aiken Sentinel, and Edgefield's love goes to Aiken on account of this new relation, We trust that Mr and Mrs. Hitt will come (back often to the old mother Edgefield. Mr. John Quarles and wife of Red Hill, spent some time Thurs day with relatives here. They also ran up to McCormick to see Mrs. Quarles' brother, Mr. Samson Strom, who has been sick so long with rheumatism. Mrs. M. Wales has sold her home to Mr. D. N. Dorn. We do so much hope that Mrs. Wales can be induced to remain among us. She is a fine music teacher, refined, cultur ed and (withal an ornament to any community. Mr. Robert Blackwell, an old Edgefield boy, now of Spartanburg, hau been down on a visit to his mother, Mrs. Hattie Ridlehoover, and other relatives. His little sister, Miss Mary Blackwell, returned with him for a short stay. Mr. Sammie Doolittle was car ried last Friday by his physician to the Margaret Wright hospital where he was successfully operated on for appendicitis. Mr. Doolittle who was extremely ill, was accompanied by his physician, and Messrs. Will and Geo. Sharpton. He stood the operation well, and was doing nice ly when last heard from. We pray for his speedy recovery and return to his bride of only two weeks, as well as a doting mother and other fond relatives. Miss Rosa Minor with Mrs. Vir ginia Stone and Mr. Cleveland Stone made a flying trip to McCor mick in Mrs. Stone's new auto a few days ago. Dr. W. G. Blackwell had the misfortune to break his new car a few days ago. Although it had to be taken to the shop it returned thoroughly mended yesterday. An election will be held here on July 15th to determine whether Parksville will have a high school. Of course she will. Mr. A. C. West of Prosperity has been elected prin cipal, and the people are determin ed to restore the glory of other days. We always had a good school here, in fact all our children, that have gone to college were prepared here, but in the last few years we have|been a little derelict, butin the future watch our school. When Mr. T. Garrett went into the pulpit yesterday, to his surprise as well as most of the audience, he found a handsome new Bible with the inscription Parksville Baptist church from friends. He very cor dially thanked 1 the unknown friends who had slipped in the church and placed the Bible without giving their names. Mr. Hamp Parks of Plum Branch, visitedjfriends and relatives in Parks ville yesterday. Mr.^ Ed Reynolds and mother from Rehoboth visited Sunday at the home of Mr. Tom Barrett. More Anon. Show Your Appreciation. Elsewhere in this issue Miss Marie Abney makes a very earnest appeal for the libriry and entertain ment to be given Tuesday evening next. The entertainment is worth more than the small admission fee to be charged and is within reach of all. Therefore let the people show their appreciation of Miss Ab ney's praiseworthy efforts in behalf of the library by patronizing the entertainment liberally. Edgefield has never had a more conspicuous instance of public spirit than that shown by Miss Abney in her untir ing efforts to maintain and enlarge the public library. Bonds Sold at Good Price. The membei s of the electric light commission have sold the bonds re cently voted to J. H. Hilsman & Co., of Atlanta at par, which is re garded as an excellent sale. The bonds bear only five cent interest, and mature in 40 years with a 20 year option. The commission is having speci fications and detailed plans drawn for installing the light plant, and as soon as these are ready bids will be received for installing the plant. Just received a large shipment of the famous Gemco brand of Har ness. Every piece guaranted by the manufacturers. Wilson & Can telou. TILLMAN-HUGHES. (Continued from page 1.) sweet and inspiring music. Not long after reaching Senator Tillman's home the guests were in vited out on the spacious side ve randa where a sumptuous wed ding supper was served. Such a feast as was here spread is seldom seen. The bridal party assembled in the large rear dining room where they were seated around the bride's table which was exquisitely beauti ful in its profuse decorations of white and green. As the feast pro gressed toasts were responded to by several college mates of the groom. In the front parlor arranged on tables around the entire room were the hundreds of tokens that were sent by friends from other states as well as from those of our own coun ty and state. Conspicuous among the gifts of china, silver, cut glasss and paintings, was a chest of sil ver from the bride's parents, a sil ver tea service from the groom's mother, a check for $100 from his grandmother and a card containing this inscription, ''Five bales of cot ton," from the groom's father. The occasion that united these two young lives was indeed a happy one. The future can not be other wise than fraught with richest bless ings for them, both possessing the sterling, as well as loVable, quali ties that must of necessity make of their new bridal residence a happy very happy-home. She is gentle, amiable, sweetly disposed and he is always unselfish and considerate of the comfort and happiness of others. Immediately after the reception Mr. and Mrs. Hughes left in their automobile for Augusta, leaving the next morning for Asheville where they will spend several weeks. (A list of the guests will be found elsewhere in this issue as re ported from Trenton. ) Farmers' Union Re-organized. According to appointment State Organizer J. B. O'Neale Holloway met with the farmers in the court house Monday and delivered a very excellent address. The county union was re-organized by the election of G. F. Long, president; P. N. Lott, vice-president; G. W. Scott, secre tary and treasurer. The Advertiser would have reported the meeting at length but the crowded condition of our columns makes it impossible. Pupil-No, ma'am; he said the licking would hurt him more than it would me. Teacher-What rot. Your father is too sympathetic. Pupil-No, ma'am; but he's got the rheumatism in both arms. Beaumont Enterprise. Interesting Items From Pleasant Lane. We have had fine rains in this section. Crops are looking fine. Gardens are coming to life again. Quite a large attendance at Be rea on Sunday last. Dr. J. S. Byrd, wife and little Fitzmaurice of Edgefield visited relatives at Limestone on Sunday last. Mr. F. L. Timmerman is quite sick.

Teacher-Willie, did your father cane you for what you did in school yesterday? Good Rains Have Fallen at Red Hill. Everything is looking better and everybody is in bettjer spirits since the good shower Saturday afternoon. We hope fo r more to-day. The crops in general where a good stand was obtained are look ing very well, except the old corn. Mr. D. B. McClendon took a load of Irish potatoes and onions to Au gusta last waek and had no trouble selling all at a fine price. Mr. Mc Clendon is a wise farmer and is net ting a good example to the others by raising truck which may be sold at the time of year when money is particularly scarce. His yield of po tatoes and onions would, have been much larger if the seasons had been better, but what he did make has been a profit besides the same grouud may be planted again this year. Daring the dry spell the farmers have kepi so close up with their work that many have had time to enjoy themselves fishing, visiting, etc. One of Mr. Floyd's little girls is suffering from a stone bruise, which it is afraid has caused blood-poison, and the doctor is attending her. His married daughter.who lives in the Grove section has been sick for some time with fever, but the last report is t?hat she is doing well. Jno. Quarles has been experienc ing bachelor life again as his wife spent several days with her folks at Rehoboth. On Wednesday John went over after her and returned Thursday evening, both of them having made a quick trip to Mc Cormick in the morning to see her brother Samson Strom who has been quite sick for some time. Rev. Littlejohn and -family went over to Rehoboth Wednesday af ternoon and remained to attend the marriage of Miss Weinona Strom to Mr. Hitt on Thursday morning. The best wishes of the Red Hill people will follow Mr. and Mrs. Hitt to their new home in Aiken.' The object of considerable inter est among the ladies now is the lit tle "Missionary hen." On the third Sunday in May Mr. and Mrs. Jessie Bailey came to preaching in the buggy and reaching the grounds behold! a little white hen emerged from under the buggy seat and es caped into the bushes. She quickly made herself at home on the grounds as hens from near by houses ranged there. Shortly afterward she was found sitting among the bushes on, eleven eggs. Ten ofthese eggs hatch ed out ind there are still ten little chicks living. Mrs. Bailey has given this hen to the ladies of the mis sionary society and my! what plan ning they have done.. Ten ladies are to take a pullet apiece (of course they are all pullets) and when enough pullets are raised from these every lady in the society will be given one and all the^proceeds^are to be given for missions.

Cleora's Intensive Hen. Orange Blossoms Will Soon Appear. Local rains have fallen in many parts of the county but in some places it is dryer than ever was known before. Wells, springs and branches are dry. But we are glad to say it is not so dry as it is in Charlotte, as for the catfish to kick up dry dust. The colton and corn are looking a little better now. We see the pine trees dying in the woods. Bee robbing time has come. Mr. editor, come and enjoy honey with us. What do you think of this?
