It was our good fortune to visit Lee8vil!e last Monday on a short business trip. We found the mer" chants of that live and progressive Lexington towu cheerful over the business outlook and firm in the hope of the future of the town On all sides evidences of the growth aDd prosperity of Leesville were to be seen. New buildings, both dwellings and business houses are going ^ .up. It is not only a good town bat & is the centre of culture and refine* * ^ C menfe. Its educational facilities are unsurpassed. v * . White Sock Whittliags. \ To the Editor of the Dispatch: ^ The Joint Council of Bethel Pas- c n torafce will meet in regular session, D. V., next Saturday, in Mt. Vernon church, at this place. It will be an a; important meeting but the chairman, 11 Mr. J. C Swygert, has the work well F in band. ^ p Mrs. S. C Ballentine, and two children, and Mr. J E. Sbealy, are to g leave Tuesday, Oct. 11, for St. Louis. Dr. H. M. Julian, Mrs. Ballentine's p brother, has been practicing medicine in that city for about twelve years. A public missionary service is to be held at Mt. Hermon church, .feafc, ce next Sunday nigbt, under the auspices of the W. H. and F. Missionary ? Society of that church. The programme includes an address by Rsv. Prof. A. J. Bowers, of Newberry Col- J. lege, and once a pastor of the church ni Painting is to begin on our par ^ sonage Wednesday, Oct. 12, next. It A. will be remembered that the present S building was erected three years ago in place of the one burned at that time. Quietly we laid to rest last Thurs- ] day, the mortsl remains of Mrs. Ida Turkett. She was the daughter o l the late Henry L. Wyse and wife ai \ Frances. About three and one-half is years ago she became the wife of t0 \ C Mr. Ira Turkett of Fairfield couQfcy. in Her death was peculiarly sad. She \had just returned from the asylum, o' taben she was seized with typhoid The end came last Tuesday night. She leaves a husbanr', ore child, a mother, four brothers, and many relatives and friends. She w s i< in her thirty-second year. S C B Our Time. j There is seeed time and there is 8t harvest time. Just at present the farmers are gathering in the fruits of their labor in seed time. The harvest is certainly a large one and consequently they are happy and no "] murmur of complaint comes frcm them. So it is with us. We have planted and cultivated and toiled through the hot summer, and now our harvest time has come and wo f are gathering in the sheaves. We have no complaint'nor apologies to 0 make on account of the crowded condition of our columns. C ii Broad River Dots. b E To the EJitor of the Dispatch: Fields are white and cotton pick- S ing, and fodder pulling is the work of the day.
