Whitmire, June 16.?At the pret
ty home of Mrs. Jno. L. Miller, beau
tifully decorated with pot plants
ferns and cut flowers, the ladies o:
our town met together Tuesday aft
ernoon. We mace to a farewel
party, given by the Ladies' Aid so
ciety of the Presbyterian church ii
honor of Mrs. William Coleman.
With smiling face and happj
words Mrs. Miller welcomed us. 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. Shi

by Mrs. S. A. Jeter at the last meet

deep words of pathos, that word
failed her and her heart was too ful
for a reply. So she heartily thanke<
AT to Totor sinH Rincrrnrkhirnl rlnl
for that farewell address.
It has been said that you couldn'
wish for much greater happines
' than to be a married woman in Whit
mire. Well,-we do just have a goo*
time. Mrs. Miller doesn't believe ii
formality, so this reception lacke<
; ' all stiffness and coldness. The mei
" said it sounded just like bees a buz

it funny how men will make fun o

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." So the light
3; of Mr. Coleman's town will shine on.

r MORE WAREHOSES ARE
NEEDED FOR COTTON.
Columbia, June 17.?W. G. Smith,
! 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.

SUGGESTS SCHOLARSHIP
AS FITTING MEMORIAL
Editor Herald and News:
In today's paper you speak of a ;
memorial to the boys who went over
there and those who did their duty
over here. I would suggest that one
of the most fitting memorials would ?
be a fund to furnish scholarships to !
boys unable to pay their way through |
college. What more enduring monu-)
ment could be built than upstanding j
young men of character? If you j
think this worth while pass it on with
your endorsement.
! Yours truly,
Aythch, Sr. I

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."
