W< went directly to the punch bowl which was presided over by two 0j our pretty girls, Misses Elizabetl Coleman and Pellenee Gary. Puncl was deeply appreciated that warn afternoon. A memorably beautiful scene th< rooms presented, when the guests about sixty in number, all assem : bled. The elegant silks and air? georgette dresses all tucked am beaded wotild hold your undividet attention far'awhile. Now I die say, that F "wished every yard o: georgette was in the bottom of th< deep blue sea; but I realize, thai georgette is a beautiful goods, sc soft and suitable for the summei styles. It isn't the goods I dislike but I have seen, not at this recep tion however, some of our womei x with too little in the upper story who insist on dressing somewhat & " old Mother Eve. The guessing contest was interest ing. It consisted of about ten ques tions, about Mrs. Coleman, the pres ident of the Ladies' Aid, whom w< are losing. We were an giaa u have Mrs Coleman win the prize 4 which was a box of cards. Mrs. Mil ler presented the cards, saying w< would each expect her to send u one, telling us of her new home an< friends. Delightful refreshments, consist ing of pound cake and ice cream were served. A large basket had been decorat ed, handle and all, with nasturtium and filled with gifts from our Ai( society. With this basket m he hand Mrs. S. L. Gary advanced t< Mrs. Colemand and in sweet, gentl words gave the shower. Mrs. Cole ? man replied, thanking us for th< gifts, for every kindness receive* from us during her stay here, ex pressed her sorrow at leaving us an< made good wishes for our happines and the welfare of this town.

Well,-we do just have a goo* time. Mrs. Miller doesn't believe ii formality, so this reception lacke< ; ' all stiffness and coldness.

The Colemans leave Whitmire in e a few days. They will spend the summer in Asheville, N. C. After i 7 ,that they will locate in some town having good school facilities. It will e ever be recognized that this is Mr. - !Wm. Coleman's town. In 1890 he '. decided to spend his wealth in locat\ ing a cotton mill here. The magni>. jficent buildings of the Glenn-Lowry s cotton mill and mill village, the Wm. Tnlpman hank building and to a - large extent the school and church i buildings here, are ideas of his, t clothed and beautified. Any man, s who has done this much to adorn a f certain spot of earth; for the lasting pleasure and benefit of its inhabi tants, has not lived in vain. And we, i the Whitmireites, cannot thank him - enough for what he has done. We 1 1 -L 1 U _ 2 realize our great loss due nope ne and his family may be happy in their -.'new home and may do as great good t there as they have done here. Mr. i Coleman has been a great man in a j small place, Carson says, It is bet ;ter than to be a small man in a r great place. "A city that is set on {a hill can not be hid."

State Warehouse Commissioner, said yesterday that many new warehouses must be built this summer as units " j in the State cotton warehouse sys' tem if South Carolina farmers are to p avoid the enormous "country dam" age" loss on the cotton crop of 1919 ! which they suffered on the crop of ":1918.v A large part of this loss from 1! weather rotten cotton would not have occurred had the State ware^ imnsp svst.em had storasre snace for 5 all of the cotton offered to it. ?! J. S. Wannamaker, of St. Matj -thews, president o? the American j Cotton Association, has estimated j [that "country damage" caused a loss jof 6.3 per cent, on the cotton crop a of 1918. On this basis, the farmers of South Carolina lost on their 1918 ' crop of 1,500,000 bales the staggerj ing sum of $14,175,000 account j damage to bales of cotton left in the \ j weather. j | On Mr. Wannamaker's estimate, f | the loss per bale for "country dam; I age" amounted on the average to I 31.5 pounds worth $9.45 at 30 cents. } The average cost of warehousing r and insuring a bale of cotton against fire for six months in the State ware. house system is less than half this j average loss per bale on the entire 1918 crop caused by "country damy tf 3 tt5cHowever, the average "country damage" loss per bale on the 1918 {crops is not a fair index to the actjual loss on individual lots of weather a J damaged cotton as is shown by the ^following instances which have lately | come to the attention of Commissioner Smith. | A farmer recently sold 16 bales of ?; cotton which were left in the weath? cinnintr The rotten, weath j t, O" , ier damaged cotton in this lot 1 amounted to 2,300 pounds or over jfour bales. The loss in money ' jamounted to $690 at 30 cents a 'pound. This farmer could have (warehoused his 16 bald* in almost ^ 'any warehouse in the State system, ? had there been room for it, for six r. . years for $690 and at the same time i it would have been insured against .fire. j A second farmer disposed of 60 ^ j bales of cotton a week or so ago on which the 'country damage' amount^ ed to 7,500 pounds, a loss at 30 cents ** -""?i TTa mitrVtf. have g <X pvunu V/JL yb)Uuv< ...-0 g put his 60 bales in a State warehouse {.jthus protecting it from the weather j and against fire, kept it there for the j'six months it lay rotting in his yard _jand saved at least $1,818 of the $2,y 1250 he lost. a Mr. Smith pointed out yesterday e that with the removal of all governg ment restrictions on construction ] there was no reason now why farmrjlers or groups of farmers could not b build either plantation or community warehouses and put them into the t' State warehouse system, thereby s! avoiding "country damage" on the 1919 crop. i a 12 HOUR KODAK FINISHING j All rolls developed 10c; packs 20c i up; prints 2 l-2c, 4c, 5c; enlarging _ Isr?r? ii n Snecialists?we do nothing r~- "x" t j but kodak finishing.

Yours truly, Aythch, Sr. I frank: case speech j GETS WIDE COMMENT, j ! i ! Atlanta, Ga., June 13.?No public i utterance in Georgia in recent years! has created such wide comment as j the speech of Hon. Hooper Alexander, United States district attorney, which he delivered at a mass meeting in Atlanta Monday night to protest against the Polish massacres of the ? * * I Jews. Atlanta newspapers, ior various and sundry reasons, but largeily because it is a "soft spot," stayed off the subject, but the eastern press took it up as a matter of real news, which it was, and gave it front page position. Atlanta folk who were not at the meeting are just hearing about i it, and they are now talking about ? * ti _ J lit on an siaes. | After denouncing the crimes of jthe Poles, who have made a plea for assistance, the district attorney took ifrom his pocket a typewritten; statejment which he read with great: slowjness and emphasis. ! He began by saying that he had ,waited 5 years until the people had i become calm and could fairly consider what he had to say. ! He then asked what could Georgia reply if the Pol^s demanded by what right the citizens of the state protested when a Jew was convicted in her courts on the testimony of a perjured criminal and in a trial that was as unfair as ever stained the annals of Russia. And further, the district attorney declared, "what would be our response when this Jew was taken from prison walls and murdered by a mob, not one of whom has been pun iished?" Mr. Alexander concluded by Uxging that "the real murderer of Mary Phagan" be duly tried and sentenced for the crime. ! It was understood that Mr. Alexander referred to the negro Conley, whose career since the Frank trial has been one of continual crime, and he is now under a 20-year sentence for a midnight burglary; It was stated by the police that Conley was the head of an organized gang of burglars, planned the robberies, sold the loot and divide the proceeds. It is known that Mr. Alexander made a thorough study of all the eviJ *?* 'T /v/v ?Lr aoa** on/t Iid llCXlCt? Ill lilC JJCU X* -L aim vc4ov muu mv was strongly of the opinion that he was innocent. The case, it will be recalled, attracted national attention and for some time afterward was an issue in local, county and state politics. , The fact that Mr. Alexander is a j lawyer of prominence and is the prosecuting attorney for the government gives unusual weight to any | statement he may make and revives | a subject which was at one time dis | cussed from one end ot tne country to the other. KEEP YOUNG. People with bad backs and weak | kidneys are apt to feel old at 60. Many old folks say Doan's Kidney ; Pills help them keep young. Here's a Newberry case: j G. M. Meadors, 701 Cromer St., 'says: "I had a dull, bearing down, 'steady ache in my back and a bad feeling in my limbs. 1 was tirea ana (wornout all the time and didn't feel | like doing much. When I bent over i and tried to straighten again, the j 'pain would go right through me just j like a knife. Blinding, dizzy spells added to my misery and everything would get black before my eyes. -- " -- i J T Mornings, 1 was so lame ana sore, x could hardly get out of bed. My anjkles bloated so it was hard for me to get on my shoes. My kidneys were weak and the secretions were badly colored, irregular and painful in passage. I used different remedies, but found Dona's Kidney Pills the best. I got relief immediately and my back felt like new. The swelling in mv ankles went down and contin I * j ued use brought me great relief." 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn (Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. CONTRACT TO BUILD BRIDGE.
