Here is something in the movies that i4 coming soon to delight the public: "The Strange Case of Mary Page." It is a thrilling, baffling and mysterious detective story. Watch for the date. The Young People's Missionary so-I ciety will meet Sunday afternoon in the church, parlor at 3 o'clock. Let's all be there as we are to have a report from the council just held in i Atlanta. During the wild, frantic, crazy-like j confusion incident to the fire in j Graveltown Wednesday afternoon, a i colored boy riding a bicycle, ran into | Mr. J. H. Summer near his place of j business and knocked him down j 1 bruising but not seriously hurting him. Court opened last Thursday morning and took up the J. Dau> Crooks j damage suit against the Parr Shoals j Power Co. All of the rest of the w |ek i was devoted to this case and it was resumed Monday morning the case going to the jury about 4 o'clock Monday afternoon. The jury remained closeted until 11 o'clock Tuesday morning?19 'hours?and then an- j nounced that no agreement could be reached. A mistrial was ordered. As usual the tow^ went wild 'Wednesday afternoon when the fire alarm j was sounded. It is said that the street f where the fire was, was soon blocked with automobiles making it difficult j for the firemen to reach the fire. In order to safe-guard lives and property it seems imperative for 'council to pass a traffic ordinance that will remedy this evil. In a highly intelligent pftmmunitv like Newberry there ought to be enough of self re-1 straint in such emergencies to make j legal restraint unnecessary, but be-! fore somebody, is killed or perhaps / maimed for life it would be wise to pass the law and enforce it. | " Study of Synonyms. Little Dulcie was asked by her teacher to define the word "whimsical." "It means 'o:Id.' " she replied. "And now." j the teacher went on. "please write a; j sentence containing the word properly used." i Hesitatingly the little ten-year-old took up a pen and after a moment's! thought wrote. "There are two kinds: of numbers?whimsical and even." Dog Carts In Holland. Residents of Bunschoten.

The gross receipts amounted to $109 which will b-) used for school improvement. The patriotic sentiment exemplified in the raising of a national flag at the school could not be better. Probably nothing could be done that would do so much to instil in the hearts f the children the proper love of our country. It was all in all the very finest of j the many proposed movements for preparedness. The school ground was appropriately decorated for the occasion. A large background of green had been ; arranged.
