BOYS' CORN CLUB. Meeting in Newberry at 10 o'clock Mftv ift. Prf*?ediner Memorial Day Exercises at 31.30 O'clock. County Superintendent of Education E. H. Aull has addressed the following letter to the members of the Boys' j Com club: "I notice from the program, which is arranged by the ladies of Newberry j for observance of Memorial day, that they have changed the hour for the j public address from the afternoon, as! heretofore, to 11 o'clock in the fore- j noon. I did not know ttns untu it was | published in the county papers on May 3. I liad published a call for the meeting of the Boys' Corn club for May 10, at 11 o'clock, and all ,of the speakers have been invited, and have accepted j to be present at that hour. Hereto-1 fore, the Memoriai exercises nav e always been in the afternoon. I can not: change the day for the meeting of the Boys' Corn club, because the gentlemen who have kindly consented to meet with us, have other engagements. I regret the conflict in the hour, but do not feel that it is my fault. However, I have consulted with some of the committee in charge of Memorial day, and we have agreed that the Boys' Corn club shall meet in the court house at 10 o'clock promptly, and that the public address at the opera house for HTrvr?io 1 cihall hft at 11.30 o'clock. iUViUV* J.CW1 WW This "will give the boys one hour and j a half, and after the meeting is over, | they can go in a body to the opera j house to attend the exercises there. "I desire every boy, who has joined the club, to be present at the court house promptly at 10 o'clock, and I do not want any boy to be absent. It] will be an indication that you are not j interested if you fail to attend this first j meeting. I beg your earnest co-opera- j tion in making the Aewoerry uouniy Boys' Corn club the banner club in South Carolina, and I want as one evidence of your interest and enthusiasm your presence at this meeting promptly at 10 o'clock. "Several gentlemen, who are interested in this work, have consented to come here to talk to you for a short while, and to help us in the organiza tion of the club, and I want you to 6liow your interest by being on hand promptly.

Brethren: Greetings. What are you doing in your county toward increasing your membership? Do you know that we want the largest and hpRf mpptinor at. Chester in Julv that v>"wv ?- o we have ever had? We can not accomplish this end unless you lend us a helping hand in the matter of fully organizing your county and increasing your present county membership. These State meetings are always very interesting and instructive; in fact, proving a veritable love feast to all prc-.seht. Once you attend a State meeting you will never desire to miss any meeting in the future. Let me tell you why the approaching State meeting to be held at Chester must be largely attended and why we want to send a larger delegation to the meeting of the national convention, which is to be held at Nashville, Tenn., I than any delegation ever sent to a national convention?Thomas E. Wicker, j of Newberry, a member of our organ- i - - ? i * i* -11 I ization, who lias served so iaitniuuy, i energetically and ably for several j years as our State president, and who is now chairman of the national association executive committee, will be in the race for president of the nationalassociation, and I truly believe he will j be elected to this high and honored | office. That Mr. Wicker is thoroughly J qualified for the office can not be questioned, and his popularity in the national association was clearly dem. i onstrated at the last national conven- j tion held at Milwaukee, Wis. Who of! us in our good old State of South Carolina would not feel proud to have one of her sons preside over the national body of rural carriers of the United States. That there is much benefit in or- J ganization'can not be questioned, not j even toy the sceptic. That wTe have I fun cari^tmn nf th* deoartment! tli C xun WJU w* - ? Jg. that we are under has been fully dem- ; onstrated by their sending those at! the head of the department to everyI meeting of the naional associaion, and j nearly always sending a representative to the .State meetings. So get busy, every one of the "boys ; of the wagon," and pull for a bigger, I larger membership in your county or- j ganizations and send a full delegation to the State meeting at Chester in i July. Hoping to see our State forge to the front. I remain, Fraternally yours, D. C. Havden. Orangeburg. A VETERANS' TRAIN JUMPS THE TRACK!

CLARK GETS MARYLAND. i Thongrli Preferential Vote is for Roose- j Yelt, Taft Men May Control Convention. Baltimore, May 7.?The closeness of the struggle between President Taft and Theodore Roosevelt for control of Maryland's 16 votes in the national convention was emphasized today when complete returns from yesterday's primaries showed that the result depended upon one county, which, on the fa.ce of the returns, gave Roosevelt a majority of but 80 votes. Put * ?^ ? : - xl. ^ ting tnis county, nowara, in iue Roosevelt column, gave him 66 delegates to the State convention, just one | more than the majority necessary for control. The three Howard county delegates counted for Taft would have given him the primary victory by the same margin. Complete unofficial returns received today by the State Roosevelt qommit i tee and all the Baltimore newspapers, j incuding the two which have supported Taft, agreed in giving Col. Roosevelt a majority in Howard county of SO odd votes; but this slight margin left the Taft leaders tonight unwilling to concede that their opponents had I wAn the ^lp>r>Hnn i The other feature of the day was : the development of the possibility | that the individual delegates elected j to the Stae convention include a mai jority of Taft men even though their instructions by the county preference vote might bind them to vote for a J Roosevelt delegation to the national i convention. It was pointed out that President j Taft's friends might control the ori ganization of the convention, force the j adoption of a conservative platform i and send a delegation to Chicago i which would be ready to abandon j Roosevelt as soon as they considered I thpv had fulfilled their lesal duties bv : voting for him on the first ballot. None i of the leaders, however, made any such ! prophecies. The day's developments brought no ^ change in the Democratic situation | except to insure for Speaker Clark several delegates already counted for him on the strength of the indicated \ county majorities. County preference I vote bound 81 delegates to Clark, 44 to "Wilson and 4 to Harmon. EXPLAINS THE PLANS FOR LUTHERAN SCHOOL Rev. S.. C. Ballentine, Secretary of Conference, Tells of Movement for Woman's College. * ~ ! To the Editor of The State: In as much as impressions have heretofore gone out that are not in harmony with the actions of the joint conference which started the movement, it might be in order for me, as j secretary of that body, to give a somewhat semi-official account of the matter. The project was started April, 1Q11 of Qf Afiphaol'c /^hiirrh. T.PYiriP' ton county. A committee of four, consisting of Dr. E. J. Etheredge, Rev. C. P. Boozer, C. M. Efird and Rev. J. A. Cromer, was appointed by conference "to indorse a movement to estab- j lish a female college in South Carolina." The two synods were asked to appoint a committee of one each "to act in conjunction with the committee of four appointed by conference." This committee was "empowered to act as long as it assumed no indebted- | ness." In response to this resolution Rev. 3. P. Koon was appointed by the South Carolina synod and Rev. B. D. Wessinger by the Tennessee synod. This committee made its report at Bethlehem church, near Irmo, last week. The report recites the history of the committee's work, stating finally that after having visited personally each of the five places offered, taking everything into consideration, the committee unanimously decided that the Summerland hotel property?the Leesville-Batesburg offer?was the best place offered. Under the consideration of the historical part of the report, the regularity and legality of tne committees worK was iuny sudstantiated. The principal part of the discussion was upon the recommendations of the committee. Some changes were made. As it finally came before the body, they read: "Your committee respectfully rect ommends: "That your body commend the action of the committee in accepting the offer of the Summerland hotel proporfv nAmnlafnlTr fnrr>ioV?^^ on/1 AC\ vx uj luimou^u) auu * v acres of land, as the location of the Lutheran college for girls. "2. That this body suggest that the president of the South Carolina synod call meeting of that body as early as possible, to consider the acceptance of this proposition, and that j:his body appoint a committee of three, whose duty it shall be, in case the called | meeting of the South Carolina synod j is not had, to accept in trust the titlej to the property, conditioned upon thej acceptance thereof by one or more of the synods, to be by them conveyed to such board of trustees as may be selected to accept the title to the property in trust, and to complete the buildings for the institution. "3. That the South Carolina synod be requested to accept this offer, and to provide for the election and succession of members of board of trus tees, whose duty it shall designate, and that it invite the Tennessee synod and the -Georgia synod to elect and provide for the succession of such members of the hoard of trustees as the South Carolina synod may suggest." After a thorough, spirited, but withal a harmonious discussion, a roll call was asked. By a vote of 34 to 4, the above recommendations were passed. Four members of conference did not vote, under recommendation two, tne following committee was appointed: C. M. Efird, J.. E. R.

The resolution . th? position of suffragan bishop, to be held by a negro, at this time. As a substitute for the negro suffragan, the council appropriated money for the maintenance of a negro archdeacon for work among the negro members of the church in 'this State. Tht resolution against the suffragan bishop proposal was adopted without debate, the council considering the winter's open discussion of the matter sufficient to enlighten all the delegates. The resolution was adopted after the presentation of the majority report of the committee, favoring the plan, the minority report opposing it f icrrioiaj epends almost entirely upon health. jj | :ing in the ruck?
