Sunday a Day of Jubilee, Corner-Stone Being Laid and Church Dedicat ed-Splendid Record. The Lutheran p eople of Silverstreet and the country round-about held an unusual celebration on Sunday. It was the occasion of the laying of the c rner stone and the dedication of their fine new church. The corner stone might have been laid two .years ago when the church was in process of erection, but the people preferred to wait until dedication day to insert the stone and seal it. On Saturday this was done with appropriate cere mony by the pastor, Rev. S. P. K*bon. An all-day meeting was planned for Sunday. In the morning the services. were conducted by the Rev. Z. W. Bed enbaugh, of Prosperity, and the ser mon preached by Rev. J. D. Kinard, of Newberry, president of the Synod of South Carolina. He built his dis course about the symbolism of the cornerstone, showing in a masterly manner, how it referred to that "Chiet Cornerstone," the only foundation, Jesus Christ. At noon dinner was served or. the grounds. A bounteous repast had been prepared and a large crowd gath ered around the hospitable boa,rd. There was a plenty of good things left, even after the multitudes were fed. At 2 o'clock th'e congregation reas sembled for the formal cRrernnies, which were conducted by ths Rev. S. P. Koon. At this service an appro priate sermon was preached by Presi dent' J. Henry ,Harms. The people of the Silverstreet church are being warmly commended for their zeal, and the success of their labors. On July 5, 1908, they assem bled for the first time as an organiza tion. Within the space of three years they have gathered a fair sized con gregation, erected a splendid church building, on a lot donated by Mr. Honry Long, and dedicated it absolute ly free of debt. It is a record to be proud of, and The Herald and News extends its congratulations. WON'T DISCUSS CONTROVERSY. Chief Justice Jones's Position on Special Judgeship Matter Not for Publication.

Prof. Barrow, of Clemson College, Gave Valuable Talk in Newberry On Saturday. Prof. D. N. Barrow, of Clemson col lege, was in the city on -Saturday and made a talk to the boys who will en ter the corn club in this county this year, and also to the farmers. who were present, on the subject of select ing seed corn. He calls these meet ings corn schools, and they are to a . large extent schools, in that those who are interested may gain a great deal of useful knowledge in the -matter of the proper selection of seed corn~, and how to make the selections. Prof. Barrow, in his talk on Satur day, outlined th,e reasons for scoring and selecting individual ears, and ,ast the same time demonstrated to those interested how to keep the score card 1by having them to do it themselves. Suprinendntof Education Wheel er- is working up quite an interest in the school boys' corn club, and quite a number of these boys were present, and they were particularly interested in the talk and explanation made by Prof.. Barrow, and Prof. Barrow ?was particularly deligh.ted at this intereq.t on the part of the 'boys, becaue'if the boys become interested, it mea.ns more scientific cultivation or corn, and the growing of more corn. Prof. 'Barrow outline l the 4ndivi dual points ofa good ear of corn1. It should be cylindrical iii sIhape, tr'ue to type, should have a tip weil Covered aind the rows of the- grain should be straight 'from butt to 'ip. The kernels should be uniform in size and shape. The diameter of the ear shopild be in a definite proportion of four to six to the length. The cob should be one half the total diameter of the ear. There should be, if white cobs, a uni formity of white cobs or vice-versa. In a white vari,ety, there should be no grains of any other color and the vitality of the seed should be good. The ob.iect of these points is to en able one to sel et such ears as would give the maxin{um grain with the least expenditure of vital life. .Prof. Barrow explained the .ger mination test and the importance of having seed of strong vitality. At the conclusion of his talk, he scored several ears of corn, 'using the score cards provided for that purpose. He furnished some of these score' cards to the boys and the grown men, who were. nresen't. and explain'ed to them how to use the cards.. Prof. Barrow was very much pleas 1ed with the interest he found in th-is work in Newberry, and particularlyj the interest manifested on the part of! the boys' corn club. A High Promotion. The C. L.
