The Old Maids' Association, a far cical entertainment will be given in the Opera House early in July for| the benefit of the Episcopal church. In this wonderfully amusing and mirth giving entertainment a large number of old maids band together to devise means for securing hus bands. The reports of the committee on Matrimonial Outlook, and the committee on Persuading Brethren, are intensely amusing. Each spinster advocates some plan whereby the de sired end may be accomplished, but none appears feasible. In the moment of their despair, Prof. Mekerneux, the inventor of the marvelous rejuvenating machine, of fers his services. One after another enters his machine and a moment later steps out completely transform ed 'into a charming young lady. A full cast of characters will be an nounced next week.

Edgefield friends w?re deeply sad dened by the announcement of the death of Mr. John -Branson Friday afternoon at the home of his daugh ter, Mrs. Cinnie Sewell, in Augusta. While he has been making his home 1 in Augusta with his daughter for sev eral years, Mr. Brunson was an Edge field man and he spent most of his long life of nearly 86 years in this county, making his home in Parks ville before moving to Augusta. Be fore becoming greatly enfeebled a few weeks just prior to his death, Mr. Brunson possessed wonderful strength and vigor, both m mind and body, for one of his advanced age. He was the eldest of eight sons of the lamented Rev. D. D. Brunson, one of the sturdy, strong, virile and consecrated characters of old Edge field, a man who impressed as but few men not only his generation but i the generations that have come after j him have felt the influence of the ministry of Rev. D. D. Branson. Mr. Brunson was a Confederate veteran, having rendered faithful and distinguished service during 'the years of the Civil War. After the war closed he had a leading part in restoring order out of the chaos that followed the strife of the sixties. He was for many years a member of the Baptist church of Parksville. The funeral was conducted Saturday morning at the home of his daughter in Augusta and the body was carried '. to Parksville where it was interred in the family square in the cemetery . Sunday morning. L Mr. Brunson is survived by his de voted wife, four uaw jhters, Mrs. Cin nie Sewell, Mrs. Clint Parks, Mrs. n Joseph Edmunds and Miss Emmie D Brunson and four sons, Mr. S. A. Brunson, Mr. C. A. Brunson, Mr. John Brunson and Mr. Joseph Brun- j j son- __ Iii Civic League's June Meeting. ^ Mrs. J. G.
