Rally Meeting. This meeting wa? held at Beaver dam church, Fair Play, July 10th, and was an eminently enjoyable af fair. The ladies of the Beaverdam society had exerted themselves to entertain pleasantly the delegates from the sister societies. At the door of the beautifully decorated church the ladies were met and wel comed by a committee of welcome, consisting of Mrs. Thos. Isbell, Misses Pearl Marett and Sallie Lea thers. Mrs. 1). A. Perritt, president of the union,"called the meeting to or der, and devotional exercises were conducted by Mrs. O. K. Brenzeale, of Westminster. The welcome address was by Mrs. W. L. Dobbs, the much loved presi dent of the Beaverdam Society. This was a very fine pai>er, beautiful in thought and expression. Mrs. Dobbs gave to all a hearty welcome in the name of the Beaverdam Society and the Master, who ever welcomes wo men in His cause. She especially emphasized the responsibility of the individual, showing the imperative need of every woman who bears the sacred name of "Christian," devot ing her time, her talents, her heart, to the noble cause of missionary work, for the uplifting of the suf fering, bondaged women in the far lands of heathendom. ? The respoi ?e to this welcome was made by Mrs. I. W. Wingo, of Greenville, as Mrs. J. H. Bibb was unable to be present. The roll call of societies, with In formal reports from delegates, show ed a steady onward progress in all societies represented. Just here we would like to say-to urge-that all the societies send delegates freely to these rally meetings. They are not strictly business meetings, but are for mutual encouragement, spir itual uplifting and instruction. The minutes of the last meeting, which was held at Seneca, were read by the secretary, Mrs. W. J. Lunney, and adopted. The approaching summer assem bly at Greenville was then discussed, Mrs. Wingo leading this, and giving alBo a very clear description and ex planation of the part set apart for woman's work and the program of same during the meeting of the as sembly. The work and plan of the Mar??"rei Home was also discussed. Then was had the address of the r-tate president of the Woman's Mis sionary Union of South Carolina, Mrs. I. W. Wingo. Mrs. Wingo ls a fluent speaker, and speaks with ease and force of the noble work In which she Is so heartily engaged. We wish every woman in Beaverdam Association could have heard that address. She proved conclusively that the Great commission waB given neither to the early Apostles', nor to the men alone, but to all "whose hearts God had touched." Now, we know that the modern version of Psalmist David's words, "The women that proclaim Thy Gospel are an ex ceeding great host," ls literally true.

After further discussion of this subject a paper on "Young Ladles' Aid Work" was read by Mrs. J. Ri Moore. Mrs. Moore is an experienced worker along this line, and her paper was highly practical and helpful. Mrs. WIngo then gave an outline of the aim and scope of the State Union, and by object Illustrations made lt very clear and helpful. Next was a paper, "The Why and How pr Sunbeam Bands," by Miss Emily Compton. After some further discussion of Sunbeam Bands and the new "Royal Ambassador Leagues" for the boys, a collection amounting to about five dollars was taken up for the Summer Assembly work. After prayer by Mrs. Perrltt, who had presided so graciously over the meeting, came adjournment, and all left feeling that It had been good to be there, and looking forward to the time wb*?n we shall all meet again. May the comfort, the encourage ment, the enthusiasm of this moot ing never be lost or decreased, but may lt widen as the years grow apace. *** T. E. ALEXANDER, The Land Man WALHALLA, S. O'. Keep Your Premises Clean. Too much care cannot be taken In the matter of keeping premires clean, especially during the summer months. It ls impossible, however, for the officers to keep In touch v/ith all premises at all times. Citizens will confer a favor on the town as a whole, and upon the. town officers .is well, If they will promptly report any unclean premises. I , will be glad to have these reports made to me personally, and will give them prompt attention.
