I Plan Agreed Upon by Committees From Chamber of Commerce and the Civic Association. ~ # The civic association committee and the committee from the chamber of I j commerce appointed to confer as to |a clean-up day for Newberry met with the mayor and the chairman of the board of health on Friday afternoon and concluded to appoint May 15 as 1 the day for cleaning up. i The joint committees also directed ! the chairman to appoint three citiz! ens from each ward whose duty it shall be to see that the ward is canvassed from house to house by the health officer and one officer of the city appointed by the mayor. When each ward ie finished by the said officers they will be required to make written report of the sanitary ^condition of each of the premises in the ward to the said ward committee. The ward committees will then make their reports of the condition of their ! respective wards to the central committee whose duty it shall be to report to the board of health as a body any : infraction of the sanitary laws, with I the request that said parties be re| quired to put their places immediately I in good sanitary condition that will be ; satisfactory to the ward committee cf * * * 1-1 _ *.? -t - ? *..n j mac wara. railing 10 ao su me iuu j penalty of the law will be invoked.

At a meeting of the Newberry bar, ! held on Friday afternoon, it was de- J cided to ask that the common pleas court scheduled for Newberry beginning on May 13, be called off. ! This action was taken for a number of reasons. In the first place, the far-; mers are more behind with their crops this year than for a number of years | previous, and there was a disinclination to force the attendance of jurors and witnesses at this peculiarly inisy j season. In addition, the State Demo- j I cratic convention meets during that' week, and there were other reasons.; There were no cases of immediate im- I portance, and in view of the whole situation, the action stated was taken by i the bar. In a civil court only the parties j litigant are interested, and no public business can suffer by failure to hold a civil term of court. On the con-1 trary, the less civil court a county has,! the better for the county, both from a financial and other standpoints. MEMORIAL DAY ORATOR.

It is stated in another column that' the time for the meeting of the boys of j the corn club 011 May 10 has been changed from 11 o'clock in the morning to 10 o'clock, and the county superintendent of education urges every boy who has joined the club to be I present promptly at 10 o'clock. This ' change was made necessary on'ac-; count , of the change in the hour for memorial exercises from the afternoon tn. fnrAnrvnn County Superintendent of Education! E. H. Aull has mailed a personal let- j ter to each boy in the club urging him i to be on hand at the court house promptly at 10 o'clock. As heretofore stated> several gentlemen will be present to talk to the j boys of the club, and the club will be j formally organized. Prof. J. X.

Wi I.MV gentlemen offering prizes in the boys' corn club to meet with the boys on | May 10. I The meeting will not last over an hour and a half, and the county sup[ lntendent of education is very anxious that every boy v^ho has joined will show his interest by being on hand promptly at 10 o'clock May 10. The county superintendent of educaj tion states that he is very much gratij fied with the voluntary and hearty rei sponse of the business men of Newberry and Prosperity in the matter of offering prizes in the boys' corn , club. The list is published for the information of the boys as well as for the information of the public. The i * _ j prizes are not large, Dut me supenn| te^dent of education is gratified with the heartiness ami good spirit in which | they have been offered, and he hopes that the boys will appreciate the in! te- ist which is being taken in them to ? make an honest effort to have the | Xewberry club the best in the State. It will be recalled that Mr. John M. Kinard, president of the Commercial bank, has already contributed to each ; boy a sufficient amount of corn to plant his acre. This is specially selected ' seed, and it gives to each boy the same opportunity so far as seed is concerned. In addition to this, it will be re| membered that the chamber of commerce of Xewberry offers a prize of $100 to any boy who will ttke a prize at the National Corn show to be held in Columbia in^ January, 1913. It will be seen that everything to make the boys' corn club a success is squarely up to the boys, and the county superintendent says that he is very anxious to have the boys make good. The following is the list of prizes in addition to those above: Best Judge of Corn. First nrize?Jersev heifer, siven by Mr. S. M. Duncan, valued at $20.00.

Kinard Accepts Pastor- j ate of Ininianuel Lutheran Church* His a Life of Service. I Rev. Jas. D. Kinard, pastor of the! Newberry pastorate and president of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of South Carolina for th? past two years, has received and accepted a unanimous call to become pastor of the Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran church, of Greenwood, S. C., and will assume pastoral charge June 15, 1912. Rev. Mr. Kinard has been engaged in the active work of the gospel ministry in the Lutheran Synod of South Carolina since his ordination to the ministry nearly seventeen years ago. i .? < I REV. JAS. D. KINARD. His continuous residence and service I in his home synod 'make him, one of the best informed men of the body. * Then, too, he is a cautious, tactful .and conservative man and member of the synod who has filled the various offices of trust and responsibility, having been secretary of the body for five years and now president of the same ecclesiastical body, whose complete confij dence he enjoys. For eight years he was pastor of the Leesville pastorate, seven years .pastor of the St. Matthew's pastorate, Cameron, S. C., and for two years pasi tor of the Newberry pastorate. i Mr. Kinard has likewise been acI tive, devoted and loyal to ttie educational interests of the synod. For eight years he has been a faithful member of the board of trustees of Newberry college and the painstaking secretary of the board. He is at present the president of the Alumni association of Newberry college, his alma !'mater. In all these places of trust and i responsibility he has made good, and proven himself t<? be thoroughly abreast of the times and a consecrated, conscientious, modest and withal an ever faithful preacher of the pure gospel of God's grace in Christ Jecus. Good things, and a nopetui ruture, . full of good fruits, are predicted as the result of the united efforts of pastor and people in Imimanuel Evangelical i Lutheran church at Greenwood. ? <S> <e> ?> MEMORIAL DAY. <?> \<v ~ !

One of the most important roads, so far as Newberry is concerned, and one of the worst roads in the county, is the one leading from Newberry to the steel bridge over Saluda river at Kinards ferry. It is understood that Supervisor Feagle has moved his enrire working force on this road and is now putting it in fine condition. The only trouble about roads that are worked in this way by the supervisor is with the people along the road. They will not follow up the work by the supervisor which would take very little to keep the road in good condition. There are roads in j\ew berry county, notably, the road from Newberry to Whitmire, which j i was put in fine condition last summer; by the supervisor and just a littie work in the way of using the split j log drag, would h&ve kept this road) in fine condition.
