The lot for Parr's garage has been put in good shape under the superin tendence- of Mr. C. F. Lathan, prepara tory to the erecting of the building under the direction of Contractor W. T. Livingston.

Smith had passed at the Fort Ogle thorpe training camp and gone to the camp at Fortress Monroe. Elbert J. Dickert and Leslie K. Singley are two more of the boys who were selected for Fortress Monroe, "to become fa miliar with* big gune and motors of the type used for seige work and de struction of enemy fortifications in the European theater of war." These young men are candidates for com missions in the coast artillery. In a statement of enlisments for the U. S. A. in the Savannah recruiting district between April 1 and June 13, we find the following in the enum eration for the Columbia sub-district N'ewberry?Required, 76. Obtained, 17. Due. 59. It is the earnest desire of the war department that 70,000 single men between the ages of 18 and 40, who have no dependents and who ire not engaged in professions, busi nesses or trades vitally necessary to the prosecution of the war, be enlist ed in the regular army before the 30th of June. 1917. Dr. Y. M. Brown returned to New berry Thursday morning, after pass ing examination in Chattanooga as a candidate for membership in the Den tal Resefve corps. He is awaiting the call. Dr. Brown says it is no easy matter to see any one particu lar person in that crowd of 'about 30,000, but he managed to see a few Df the boys, among them his brother, W. H. Brown, who is in the sixth iritqT^r-v; Ralph warn, a corporal in the' 56th regiment, and our own E. St-1'ok and Guv Brown, at the training -camp, well and doing well. The "living pictures" presented at the opera house Wednesday in con nection with the regular motion pic ture entertainment contributed very much 'to the enjoyment of the occa sion. Miss Margaret Burton handled the keys of the magnificent sympho ny instrument to perfection and touch ed the right spot at every turn, to " - !>rrre audiences and the success of the beautiful tableaux. Th^ effect of eacL tableau was pleasing inspiring, the whole pro gram being rendered in appropriate and instructive style. Speaking to the question of liquor permits granted by Judges of probate under the law now in effect, th; Greenville News says the statute does not impose upon the judsre of probate "the duty of investigating the truth or falsity of the application, nor is he clothed with power to refuse to issue a perrc't v/Iicro application in due form has been made to him;'' that "while he can note suspicious cases and should report them to the proper authorities, he is bound to take an applicant's petition and oath without question." The News goes on to say: "In fact, by mandatory terms of the act. he must issue the permit where due application has been made to him;" that "the duty of the probate judge is merely clerical and ministerial; he is not a prosecut ing' officer." Tn another part of the paper is a marriage notice copied from a Spar tanburg paper, but the account does not go into the details. It is an in teresting story, cut short, is- as fol lows: The contracting parties, Miss \nnie "Laurie Suber and Mr. J. W. ["aid-well, accompanied by Miss Marie ?ease and Mr. John Wilson, motored ho Saluda, N. C., "where the marriage ceremony was expected to be per formed Sunday, but the Na^th Caro !,'na minister would not marry the ouple because the marriage license ^iad been issued in South Carolina. \*ot to be outdone, the next chapter n the romantic affair was the hasten ng of the parties to Spartanburg, where the Rev. S. T. Hallman. so well j nd popularly known in Newberry,! 3rformed the ceremony while stand rig on the running board of the au vmobile, losing no time in the trans r.ction.
