port very pleasant and profitable

they are of the opinion that cotton
will bring a good price.

with which she manases the ma
chine shows that she possesses re
markable skill as a chauffeuse.
Every farmer should read care
fully the article on our front page
headed "Valuable Suggestions."
It was written by Mr. G. D. Miras

on his own farm that he is fully
capable of giving good sound ad
vice on the things about which he
writes in this issue. Read and
heed the practical suggestions.
Last evening Dr. and Mrs. James
S. Byrd entertained a number of
young people very beautifully in

Heel on Serpent's Head.
Several evenings ago, just before
dark, Mrs. J. T. McManus heard a
hen, whose little chicks were hatch
ing:, make a noise as if in distress.
She went to see what the trouble
was, and, while in the act of plac
ing her hand under the hen, dis
covered a large snake in the nest.
The intruder had already swallow
ed one of the chicks. Mr. McManus
was called out and he soon had his
heel on the serpent's head. This was
a narrow escape for Mrs. McManus
and the chicks that had just emerg
ed from the shell.
The Rose Bud Club
The Rosebud club was held
Thursday afternoon at the home of
Miss Hortense Woodson. While the
program was thoroughly enjoyed
and the hostess made the occasion
exceedingly pleasant, jet the mem
bers were saddened by the thought
that a beloved member, Miss Mell
Burgess, was with them for the last
time, as she soon leaves to make her
home in Yorkville. A delightful
luncheon was served. The beautiful
place cards, the handiwork of Miss
Edward ina Blalock, represented a
rose falling from the branch, typify
ing the departure of one of the
members from their ranks.
Ordinance of Baptism Adminis
tered at Antioch.
Yesterday was another good day
for Antioch. Being the regular

At the beginning of the service the
doors of both churches, Antioch
and Red Hill, were opened for the

Hamilton united with Antioch by

worthy people become members of
our church and believe that their

Home-Grown Rye.
An unusual advertisement, one
offering 100 bushels of home-grown
rye for sale,appears in this issue. We
have never before known an Edge
field farmer to harvest and thresh
such a large quantity of rye. Mr.
D. R. Day, the fortuaite owner, it
easily one of the most progressive
young farmers in the county. He
?ows largely of rye to improve his
land. Better purchase seed from
him for your cover crop. His is very
superior rye, such as is grown at
Beech Island.
Resolutions Adopted By Pres
byterian Church.
At a meeting of the members and
congregation of the Presbyterian
church the following resolutions
adopted :
Wheras: The Rev. T. P. Burgess
has sent to the churches under his
charge in Edgefield county, his res
ignation as pastor and the same
having been accepted, and we the
members of the Edgefield Presby
terian church, being desirous of ex
pressing our appreciation of his
high Christian character and work
among us for the past eight years,
and desirous of expressing our deep
regret at having to sever our rela
tions as pastor and congregation:
Therefore be it resolved,
First: That we deeply deplore the
great loss of Rev. T. P. Burgess and
his estimable family from our
church and home circle.
Second: That we shall miss him
in his high Christian and gentle
manly influence in our church and
town.
Third: That we wish him God
speed, and that our prayers shall be
for him in his new field of Chris
tian work, and we commend him to
the good people of Yorkville.
4 th: That a copy of these resolu
tions be sent to the Presbytery and
to Rev. T. P. Burgess and family.

W. M. U. Meeting.
The annual convention of the
Woman's Missionary Union will
convene at Trenton this morning.
In spite of the mud and unfavora
ble weather, it is expected that the
attendance will be large. Ladies
who engage in Christian work are
generally v^ry zealous and enthu
siastic, overcoming seemingly in:
surmountable obstacles in order to
carry out their plans. A prominent
feature of the convention will be
the sermon to be delivered by Dr.
P. J. McLean in Wise's hall this
evening. The public is cordially in
vited.
Joe Holland Highly Esteemed
in Roanoke.
The Roanoke Tigers a^e going td
miss good old Joe Holland much
more than the Magic City fans have
an idea. Holland deserves to go
higher, and there is not a close ob
server on the circuit who will not
wish him well. A gentleman, every
inch of him. He is a credit to the
great pastime which he represents.
Holland has always played the
game for all it is worth for Roa
noke. He has been a valuable man
to the team, but never once on the
local grounds has he stooped to a
single thing that was beneath the
dignity of a gentleman. The only
pity is that there are not hundreds
of Joe Hollands. Let's all wish him
good luck in San Francisco. Just
how bad the Tigers will miss him
will be seen later.-Lynchburg Ad
vance.
A King Who Left Home
