THERE ARE OTHERS.

Yes, I felt sure there were othsrj
bouses in Newberry than those I,
mentioned that had been occupied by
the same families during the period
mentioned. My young friend Andrew
Langford reminds me of several,
of course, I do not mean to say that
lie knows of his own knowledge but
he has a retentive mind and is ob-l
servant and a close student. There j
is the residence of Mr. John W. Chapman,
Miss Fannie Ramage, Mr. R. Y.
Leavell, Mr. William Johnson, Mrs. J.
H. Riser, then Mrs. Geo. Landford.
Fossibly there are others.
And by the way, Andrew says that <
(he oldest hbuse in Newberry is that
portion of the Central house which Is
I <
now used for the cook room. That it j.
i 1
belonged to the Hon. Thomas H. Pope ;
and stood on some portion of the land
4
that is bow owned by the Newberry j'
eottoa mill. j j
Tbe entire bwiness portion of the j ^
town hag been either burned or tha|
houses torn away to make way for j 1
others during that time except Law (
Range and tihe store now used by j
Ss Iter's gallery, which then was used
for the college, that is the upstairs j
^asc, the down stairs was occupied by <
Mr Joseph Mann as a store and the
rear as a residence, and he says thej
beys did worry him a little during that:
time. Mr. Mann is still in business I
I
just across the street in the brick'
I
building which he now owns. J

et-?. address at Porter Military a-cade-j
my instead of to the Tutwiler hotel,;

Birmingham, Ala., the writer says: "Ii
look forward to its coming with the?
greatest of pleasure." He is now cor- j1

says he likes military life very well, j
so far, although it was very hard to j ^
becomes accustomed to that life after j
he ring "such good times at the finest j

viler, as he had just been promoted c
from the position of cashier to that 1
of night clerk." He hopes to return to i \

Through its comity agents, Miss
W illie Mae Wise and Mr. T. M. Mills,
the United Slates department of agriculture
in cooperation with Winthrop
i Normal and Industrial College, and
CUmson Agricultural College, held its
short course in the Prosperity school
building, the 17th, 18th and 19t'\ of
thi., month.
The three days were spent interest
iiigly and profitably in being told and
shown how to can soup mixture,
chili sauce, beans, tomatoes, okra,
corn, apples, peaches, etc., etc., and
to dry onions, okra, corn, squash and
beans; and tested corn and beets already
dried and then soaked ready
to cook. r i
It is wonderful that 100 lbs. of
squash when dried will be only 8
oti-.; but when soaked will weigh alluost
the original 100 lbs.; and that
1 tea cup of dried beans when soaked
and cooked will feed a family of
twelve. Dried corn is much easier to
keep and much more palatable than
canned corn. * J
We tasted samples of soy-bean muf-j
fins, hot biscuits with roasted peanuts
used as substitute, oatmeal cookies
with raisins, apple -preserves, etc.,
etc., and found everything good.
Miss Richardson's demonstration on
butter-making was. timely. She took
us from the cow to the table and j
I
showed the value of the i-celess re-!
frgerator. It would have been well
if more home-makers and particularly j
farmers' wives had been present. Wej
would cease to treat ourselves to but-:
ter-milky butter.
The attendance was fair, and it did j
oar eyes good to see the club girls in j
uniform. A most pleasant social hour
was given them and the boys at the

v. he- so nobly backed her daughter, '
M.ss Willie Mae, in every way. It
carried us back to the days of "auid
lr-np syne" to see the boys and girls
clasping hands in a circle and sing-:
int* love songs, and playing romping!
gr.rces. The plain and peach-icecream
served in cones was much en- j
joyed.
A few motored up from Newberry to!
tr.ke in some of the exercises at the
school house, but the rain, no doubt,!
kept many away, though the cooled air j
nrace it much pleasanter for the many !
whc attended.
.Mr. Mills introduced the speakers j
each morning. i
' i
Senator Johnstone gave a long and
and instructive talk. He rejoiced in I
the growth of democracy as shown in j
the desire of the English parliament
that our flag should float with theirs
over the. building, and predicts that
in fifty years or so from now that
the German -peoples will come witb
outstretched hands, thanking us forj
delivering thein from kaiserism. He
aleo stressed the need of the kead,
and hand working together instead of1
anart, as in the days of yore, so that [
the man in overalls and the man with j
the store-pipe hat will stand side ay:
side as brothers.
{
Representative Evans predicted that
if the women will do their full share
in food conservation, and along other
lines cooperating with the govern-'
ment, they will be rewarded with(
Woman's Suffrage.
