F*rt Mill Times, Nov. 17: After
months of more or less vexatious
delay, there is now the prospect that
the congregation*of St. John's Methodist
church will be able to worship for
the flret time in their new and commodious
church edifice on Sunday,
November 27. For some time the
building has been practically completed
except for the installation of the
heatihg plant and the window lights.
Work on the heating plant has been
rushed for the last ten days, however,
and there now remains to finish this

tjon of the boiler, which is expected to!
arrive and be placed in position within >
the next three or four days. The
window lights have been shipped from
Atlanta, according to a letter received
the eayly part of the week by an officer
of the church, and the work of
putting them in will consume only a
day or two. Apparently alt will be in
readiness for the morning service at
the church on the last Sunday in the
month Joe M. Belk Is a patient at
a Chester hospital. Mr. Belk is a
world war casualty, who waB severely
in th? flttnek of the 30th di- i

of Sheriff Fred Quinn, Magistrate J. R.
Halle of Fort Mill, a few days ago
bound over Mrs. Rosa Purnell of Charlotte,
N. C., as a material witness in
the chse of the state against her husband
Frank Purnell, charged with bigamy.
The case against Purnell is expected
to be called next week An
interesting relic of the days when the
automobile industry was in its infancy
may be seen in the rear of Starnes' garage
on Confederate St., in the shape of
a Brush runabout. "J**10 car was built
about 17 years ago and was the second
automobile to be brought to Fort Mill
for use locally. Fifteen years ago it
was a familiar sight in Fort Mill chuggitig
along over the streets of the town
afld nearby country roads as best it
could with its single cylinder and
other mechanism now considered anteqUated.
The car was owned by W. F.
Harris, who operated it in connection
with a livery stable he was then running
here. Mr. Harris got the car
from a Lancaster man, to whom he
traded six horses for it. A peculiarity
of the car was that sometimes it refused
to climb a hill in the ordinary
way, but having greater motive power
going backward than forward could
always be depended upon to back up
the steepest hill in this section

more plentiful on the streams near
Fort Mill this year than for several
years in the immediate past. One Fort
Mlf^youth is reported to have killed 12
of the ducks on lower Sugar creek
during the past week and several
other hunters have had almost equally
good luck in bagging the fowl. A
number of the ducks were sold to Fort
Mill householders at 50 cents each.

most appropriate name for the A. R.

near Hen^|Tsonville. X. C. More than
fifty names were submitted, covering a :
wide range and including many beautl- j
ful and euphonious names, rich in j
sentiment, meaning and church and
Scriptural history; but "Bon-darKen,"
in the judgment of the committee, is
the name that most perfectly combines
all of the ideals and requirements; and
"Bon-clarken," the lovely Assembly
grounds will be christened. As stated, j
many beautiful and appropriate names,
were suggested from various quarters,
and it is an honor, indeed, to have
furnished the name that lias been ad- J

of the American Legion Monday night
at the Legion club, the matter ?^compensation
for disabled sen-ice men
was taken up. Jt was brought out that
there are a number of men in Lancaster
county who are unable to work
as a result of sickness or fcijury received
in the service and who the government
Cleart-Up Squad has failed to
get in touch with. As these men are
due compensation it is the desire of
the local post of the Legion to see
them and talk t*he matter over. Any
ex-service man who is due compensation
and is unable to come himself,
can have some relative or friend handle
it for him, bringing his discharge
ak\ng. The Legion appointed J. P.
Richards and, J. F. Moore to get these
cases before the proper authorities,
and any former soldier who Rives

their full cooperation, by telegram, if
necessary. This is not a matter of

PAINLESS DENTISTRY
I ?
Supreme Court Makes Ruling Regarding
the Teeth.
That painless extraction of teeth is
not only possible, but Is being prac'i
ticed every day, is the opinion of the
supreme court in a decision handcl
down Yesterday in which the cpurt
reverses Judge Townscnd in the cose
of J. E. Harris, dentist, vs. the state
board of dental examinees, says the
(Columbia State of Friday.
The state hoard of dental examiners
revoked the licenso of Harris and refused
to, allow him to practice dentistry,
alleging that he had violated the
state law.s in advertising that he could
extract teeth without pain and further
claiming (hat he wag unethical. An
appeal was made to Judge Townsond
and he upheld the action of the state
board of .deptal examiners. Harris
then appealed to the supreme court
and this court yesterday reversed the
action of Judge Towrsend and the
dental board.
Judge Cothran, who wrote the opirlon,
says that practically tAc only lssuo*
in the appeal was whether or not
a dentist could extract teeth wfthout
pain or whether or not an advertise-4'
ment th'at he could so extract teeth
without pain was a violation of the
statutes.
'To profess to conduct a certain
branch of dentistry or a certain operation
in a branch of dentistry without
pain is not onl>* within the inhibition
of the statute, but Is susceptible to
absolute demonstration as ?n fact,"
says Judge Cothran, who continuing
says: "It may not be a matter In
.which the court may take judicial
cognizance, but It is a fact which a j
judicial utterance can not make other- i
wise that In the ndvnnce of the science j
the process of extracting teeth is dally j
1 " J rvH I
accompusneu muiuui i?im v> w?sciousness
of the fact. The fact that
the pain may follow the operation docs
not at all negative the fact that the
extraction wns painless."
