filiTGi FORK SUITE j HAS RECORD ENGINE FIRST LOCOMOTIVE AND DRIVER' ' . STILL I> SERVICE. > President, Too, Grew Up With Road? I All Wooden Trestles Eliminated But One. T>,?, C.tato road, also holds a record for continu-i ous service. His railroad career be-j ^ gan with the building of the ., X. & | L. road. Through different positions | ijte climbed gradually, until the death of the late W. G. .Childs several years ago, when IMr. Livingston was placed at the helm. For a number of years Mr. Livingston had been the lieutenant j of Mr. Childs, and his selection as president was the logical sequence when that office became vacant. ? ^ Another interesting feature of the' road is that there is but one wooden structure on the entire 75 miles of trackage. The one wooden trestle is in Newberry, directly above the union sheds of this road and the Southern _ Railway company. The general policy ! Bof Mr. Livingston during his admin- j stration has been to eliminate all wood- I f en trestles as rapidly as possible by fill-1 I ing in gulches and substituting metal supports or terra cotta culverts. \ ? Tracking in Dutch Fork. ? * J a this roaa op?nea up an cAwcumgij fertile territory. Throughout the Dutch AFork section, the rural district is cut! nrto exceedingly small tracts, farmed V a thrifty and industrious people, ^^ho produce an abundance of poultry J and vegetables, in addition to the nec- j > essary cotton, corn and other grain /?rr>ns. Onp indication of the fertility of the soil and the perseverance and energy of the populace of that territory has been the rapid building of the numerous thrivinf towns which have sprung up at close intervals in the Dutch Fork region. N Newberry and Laurens, of almost equal size, are the largest towns that will be visited today. Both have large manufacturing and banking interests, in addition to the numerous large business enterprises. Clinton is another -thriving little town in the northern exnf tho territory to be visited. To offset Newberry's boast of being the home of Newberry college. Clinton is the &eat of the Presbyterian college pt South Carolina and the Thornwell orphanage, both of which have splendid plants. Goldville, near Clinton, is kn the heart of exceedingly fertile coron plantations, and a'so has onc c?t . mil!. Trains ut \ I" ::n:;rs_ Double daily pass^i- . r *? ??-rv' . ^ maintained over tl:e road betw<- i? Laurens and Columbia, thus making it easily possible to shop in Columbia and return the same day without inconvenience. Again the schedules admit of a trip to Columbia late in the afternoon, remaining in .Columbia over night and returning toward Laurens early the following morning. The afternoon train into Columbia leaves Laurens at 2 o'clock, passes through Newberry at 3:22, Chapin 4:05, arriving in Columbia at 5:05. The morn-' iig train to Laurens leaves the union j station at 11:20 o'clock, passes Newberry 1:06 o'clock in the afternoon and arrives in Laurens at 2:20 o'clock. j * To come to Columbia early in the morning, one may leave Laurens at 8:20 o'clock, Clinton 8:44, Kinards ?

The Southern railway, over which , *vthe northbound trip will be made as .J' far as Newberry, also provides double daily train service between Columbia and intervening points over the division.
