^^^^^^^^ ' VOL. 84 EDGEFIELD, S4 C., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1920 lyf No. 38 JOHNSTON LETTER. . / _ Beautiful Thanksgiving Ser vice. Address by Dr. Dor sett. Visit to County Home. 1 At the List meeting of the Wo man's Missionary Society of the Bap tist church it came to the attention of the members that there was a young girl near Edisto Academy, Seivern, S. C., that was anxious to attend school, but could not as she could not afford'a pair of shoes. The members voted to use the funds in the birthday box ' to purchase these and the treasurer was instructed to send the shoes on. . t This birthday fund is the result of each member as her birthday passes, drops into this box, a penny for each year. Miss Elise. Mobley who has been quite sick for the past two weeks, is now much improved. ' Mrs. Huiet Waters and Master George are at home from a visit to Mrs. Osbourne in Alabama. A beautiful and appropriate Thanksgiving service was held here on Thanksgiving Day at the Luther an church, the sermon being preach ed by Rev. David Kellar, of the Methodist church, the pastors of the other churches taking part. The col . lection taken was used for the relief of a needy family near town. During the afternoon of Thanks giving a basket ball gajne was played here on the school field, between Batesburg and Johnston teams. There was a good crowd out and the Johnston team was much elated for their winning the game, their team not being such an experienced one, has lost the pasat two games. ?ut once having gained they propose to maintain this standing, hereafter. Everyone greatly enjoyed the ad dress on Sunday evening at the Bap tist church by Dr. Dorset of Ridge Spring, a former pastor of this has lost the past two games. But world war Dr. Dorset spent abroad, and in his address he told something of the phases of life and ? conditions of the- French and Italians and he carried on the great work entrusted to him. Dr. Dorset is a very'' scholarly ma??' and a most interesting speaker. He i was. heard wii;h~k??;n".interest. ._ IT. is hoped that he will be able to be present again and speak further on the subject. Mrs. J. W. Marsh has returned from a visit to Mr. and Mrs. John Fleming Marsh in Columbia. For the past eighteen years it has been the custom of the Mary Ann Buie chapter, U. D. C., to visit the County Home at Thanksgiving and spread a dinner for the inmates, and this time, the chapter decided to have a turkey dinner, and through the kindness of the wife of the stewart, Mr. Allen, a turkey was procured, and most of the dinner was served hot. ? Those of the chapter that went carried the contributions of sweets and fruits. . 'The inmates were all in readiness, and greatly enjoyed the day. In the afternoon a servci ewas held in the little chapel on the hill. It speaks well for the. county that there are so few inmates here. The present manager is the man for the place, and his big heartedness makes him care for th?se poor un fortunates tha? is not the outcome of his being steward. The home seemed to be in a very progressive state, and there was plenty. There was plenty of wood for the winter fires and quantities of milk and butter, and one of the la dies who had been experiencing some difficulty in procuring the above named has almost decided that she will go out to the home for the win ter. Miss Bell of Ellenton is the guest of her sister. Mrs. W. P. Cassells. Dr. Connerly returned on Satur day evening from the bedside of his mother in North Carolina who has been critically ill. She was operated on last Wednesday and is now im proving. Rev. and Mrs. Chester have "been for a visit to their son, Mr. Leland Chester. His condition remains about the same. The bird season starting in on Thanksgiving Day a number of hunt ing parties left town at various hours and much game was bagged. All hav ing more than they wanted, were very generous and there was scarce ly a family the next morning that did not breakfast on game. Mrs. M. T. Turner and Mrs. O. D. Black attended the D. A. R. meeting at the home of Mrs. Agatha Wood son, going -upon invitation. Mrs. Turner gave a report of the work,/ of Tomassee Industrial School, as a part of the State conference report. At the Trenton meeting D. A. R., Mrs. Turner and Miss Zena Payne at tended and gave their impressions oi the State conference at Anderson. The pleasant co-operative spirit that exists among these sister towns in such work is beautiful to see. The young people of the town had a very joyous hour on Saturday ,tbis being spent with Santa Claus him self. At twelve o'clock he arrived via Augusta and his big car was filled with .every kind of toy and to every child that had come to meet him he gave a balloon. Many of the children gave him a memoranda of things wanted, while some were too awed to even speak, but all had a hand shake and some of the real good ones were held" in Santa Claus' arms. Old Santa was his usuaal jolly, self, and left town to the deep regret of every little heart. Many of the mothers find various changes for quietness, etc., on the part of many since Santa inquired of them if they were good. Mrs. David Kellar entertained the Apollo Music club Tuesday after noon and after business a most de lightful program was held. Mrs. W. J. Hatcher gave a paper on "Music as a Medium for Praise and Thanksgiving." Piano, "Stabat Mater"-Mrs. G. D. Walker. Piano, "McDowell's A. D.- 1620" -Miss GI ad vs Sawyer. Song-Mrs. Kellar.

Mims' article on "Sousa's Band" published i ir last week's'Advertiser she.says: - '.'One-- can get -<ao '&fe?&Mtmtl'??&: sound of ' it as to what the national ity of John Philip Sousa may be. The first part is good plain American. The second part might be French or Spanish or Italian and the latter part belong to almost any one'of a number of European nationalities." v I was fortunate enough to hear Sousa's Band fourteen years ago while they were on a tour of the Southeastern States, and thinking perhaps it may be of interest to some of your readers am sending you a story of Sousa's name as it appeared in some of his press notices, as near ly as i can remember. He is an Italian by birth, but came to America when a very small child. After attaining some small degree of . prominence, and having his name al most involuntarily misspelled or mis pronounced he decided to have his name changed. He accordingly made application to the Courts of New York to be allowed to change his Italian to a good old Anglo-Saxon name, but he was unable to decide on the name he wished to bear. After some delay the judge decided to dis pose of the matter and did so in short order by "John, you wish an Ameri can name, very well, we'll just add U. S. A. to your last name and then divide it into two words. Your name is changed from John Philipso to John Philip Sousa. HENRY ARTHUR. Trenton, S. C. Meeting of W. C. T. U.

Cogburn, who was largely instru mental in making this undertaking a success some - years ago, the Civic League decided to begin the associa tien again and everybody is asked to begin thinking and planning for an exhibit next fall. This is a splendid idea and no doubt will be followed with enthusiasm. The money for this will be used in keeping up our town cemeteries Big reduction on all Blankets. SMI'PH-MARSH CO. Miss Flor?nce Mims' Impres sions of Minnesota-Wisconsin Football Game. Dear Advertiser: .The north and west are great places for sports of all kinds. I think; the bracing climate and crisp air are responsible for this physical v?g-, or. The people here were surprised that I witnessed my first football game here in A"^ora several weeks ago. The sport page of the papers have always been a closed book to me, so to speak. I tolerated them for the information that I found on the oth er side. In an article for the High School paper the other day I stated, that I would willingly substitute the waffle iron / for the. gridiron. I was not quite sure of the spelling of the term gridiron, so I asked ?1 little seventh grade boy, who knew ali about that subject, and he tdd me, wondering I suppose, how I. cc>uld be so ignorant, being a teacher. I have learned to have great re spect for the game, because of the admiration for it by many responsi ble people, but I have a dark sus picion that it can be comprehended only by the all-knowing masculine mind, so I attend the game, look wise, and say nothing, assuming me chanically a pleased expression when I hear shouts of victory, for the side in which I am interested, and lapse back into a dull state nf non-compre hension when there are ''no shouts.' Such is the way of the feminine mind. There are some things that we at tend because other. people do, and we think as a matter of course that we. must enjoy them, too. It was some such motive that led be through the tall gates of the Minnesota Uni versity grounds the other day at Minneapolis to attend the football game between the Universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin. There is something-about a seated crowd that is inspiring, and I like to be in the midst of one. I am convinced that the audience is quite half of the oc casion, for were there, no shouts of victory there would be, much less pleasure in playing. . The cheer leaders, seemed like .con ductors.of great orchestras, and skill-; fully played - upon the school ^spirit of, the students, : making the ? air f air>* ly-resoTfrrd~\vith' "songs and' gripping yells. I iihought that I did well just to remember which were the Wis consin and which the Minnesota boys. At the conclusion of the game I felt as dejected as the rest when Wisconsin won, though had Wiscon sin been one of my neighboring Southern States I would have stood up for her against all the friends of Minnesota. The game ended abruptly when I thought the fight at its height, and by us passed little boys, girls, grown ups, students and people of all ages, young afain and living over their own youthful days. We left the crowd back in Minneapolis and sped back to St. Paul for a more quiet time at the theatre. FLORENCE MIMS. Aurora, Minnesota. -"~" - . dkora News. (Written for Last Week.) The Brunson school opened on the 8th inst with Miss Emma Ligon of Bradleys, S. C., as teacher and about 25 scholars. . ' Mr. Jim Gilclmst will move to Edgefield soon and Mr. Sam Coth ran will move to Mr'. Bunch Tim merman's place which he leaves. Mr. Jim Griffis has bought a place on the Dixie Highway and will move to it as soon as he finishes gathering. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Reel were up Sunday visiting their kinfolks. Messrs. Yonce & Mooney demon strated their Fordson tractor and Disk plow and harrow on the farm of Mr. A. B. Holmes last week. Crops in this section turned out fairly well, but the price continues to go down, which puts farmers in a pretty bad shape to make and sell a crop for about 50 per cent of what it cost to make it. If some wiseacre like* the editor of the Columbia Rec ord had corn^ a little earlier with his warning against Mr. Wanamaker and Mr. Harris who are "fooling the farmers and are working only to pro mote their own interest" we might have been saved, but it came too late. I am surprised at any paper publish ing any such "rot." Some of the colored brothers were discussing the hard times the other day and one said he had seen hard times before and known some to be put in jail, but this year they were putting some "niggers" in jail and making them pay board while'there. Day labor is still? scarce and high around here. Crops are about gather ed and the people are trying to put in. good grain crops. SUBSCRIBER. Cleora, S. C.

All th? house was artistically dec orad in autumn leaves and the ta blead as a centerpiece a high and symmetrical branch of oak leaves, through wh^ch the electric lights shone and vases of lovely roses add ed a cheery aspect to theoccasion. thought as we looked at the au tumn' leaves 'and! of the season as onjz^of sadness and farewell, that nature does not so clothe herself be ciyj^e as.they say their autumn good bye;the trees and leaves put on their gayest colors of red and gold and seem to regard it as a festive rather thalia gloomy season.

The Civic League is doing all it can but it seems to me the League is "Atlas with the world on its shoulders.' While in Savannah I shall visit their beautiful Carnegie Library and familiarize myself with many of their methods. . MARIE ABNEY, Librarian. Program of Music Club.

The mountain school at Tomassee is es tablished and has been aided by D. A. R. chapters in a number of states, New York building a cottage cost ing $5,000. This is the only school in the state whose board of trustees is composed entirely of women. When Mrs. Turner ^ had finished speaking, Mrs. Tillman "who also at tended the conference in Anderson, gave a very entertaining and detail ed account of the conference, both from a social and business stand point. Miss Hortensia Woodson read a letter addressed to the chapter from Miss Florence Minas giving \ story-;1 of the Minnesota Indian and th? fact that Longfellow's Hiawatha fouris its setting in that state; At the close of the meeting the hostess served hot coffee with marsh mallows, fruit and pbnnd cake and cheese.
