PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS PROSPEROUS PROSPERITY Prosperity, May 24.?At Grace church Sunday morning, May 23, the commencement of the Prosperity high school began with the annual ser^ mr?n before the graduating class. Kr- This was delivered by Dr. C. K. Bell of the Lutheran Theological Seminary, Columbia. Taking his text from Romans 12:2, he told clearly what I conformity to this world meant, and warned against it, and held up before the class the beauty of the transformed life as the highest good in the . world. In conclusion he plead with the class to learn what the will of God is, and strive to do this, for in so doing they would find a life that is full of good things. Delivered in an easy and graceful manner, couched in the choicest English and sparkling with classical allusions his sermon was a gem. On Tuesday evening at the Town Hall at 8:30 the graduating exercses will be held. Rev. P. E. iYLonroe president, ui oummc naiiu walege will address the graduating class. A "get-to-gether" meeting of the Methodist men of the town was held at the town hall on Saturday night under the auspices of Wightman chapel Methodist church. A banquet was served by the ladies of the church. The pastor in a few words stated that the object of the gathering was to cultivate the fraternal spirit among the members. Dr. Thornwell Haynes responded to the pastor's "get-to-?ether." This idea he drove home with many apt illus trations. Rev. W. J. Snyder of Bates,??-^.burg very forcefully pointed out the demands upon the church today, stating that the only way to meet demands is by not only "getting together" but by "sticking together." Music was furnished throughout the evening by Miss Ruth Stockman. The esteem in which Miss Swittenberg, superintendent of the Prosperity SCIIOOI IS Il^XU L> V UUUl uuu pupils was demonstrated on Friday morning at the opening exercises, when Miss Myra Hunter, president of the student body presented in their behalf, a lovely silver basket as. a parting gift. The Rev. Edward Fulenwider of Newberry was present and fVio student bodv on the auvii vouvu vmv value of education. He emphasized the necessity of an education urging the pupils to apply themselves while at grammar and high schools, and not to stop at college but to make an effort to go on to a university even at a sacrifice. 4 The Robert E. Lee children's chapter, U. D. C., was entertained Saturday afternoon by Miss Swittenberg at the home of Dr. Ji S: Wheeler. As this was the first meeting, a regular program had not been arranged. Plans were perfected for the year. At the conclusion of-the busmen S\2a.sion, delicious ices , were served by Misses Rebecca Harmon, Ethel Shealy and Grace Wheeler. . Mrs. Dora Dee Walker, assistant state agent of the home demonstration force has been in the county with .Miss Willie Mae Wise, the county home demcnstration agent. Mrs. Walker is a pioneer worker in the demonstration force and is much encouraged over results obtained along this line of work. On Wednesday morning Mrs. Walker and Miss Wise demonstrated the preparation of a meal in the steam pressure cooker to a large number of ladies at the town hall. Mrs. Walker soon convinced the ladies that the steam cooker was the house keeper's solu ' tion as a saving ui Iliac, xuci aim energy. The different grades of the Prosperity high school enjoyed an outing on Thursday, when they went on a picnic. The ninth and tenth grades . went to Bush river, while the eighth grade motored to Little Mountain and spent the day on the mountain top. The Pilgrim school closed on Friday.

An Enjoyable Time With Fine Sing- 1 | ers, Splendid Lecturers and Oth- ;" j er Excellent Entertainers. ! 1 P j TJie popular Redpath Chautauqua, I which opened its seven-day engage- j ment here last Wednesday, is draw- < i ing to a close.

But that is always to be ex- 1 ' pected among a multitude of differ- <* j ent minds, moods and degrees of in- 1 tellectuality in every community. Of 1 j what we "took in" we must needs be ' I very brief in reporting, as this is no < j daily newspaper. Such fine singing < ?and lectures and instrumental mu- ' . sic as the chautauqua brings ought to J i be reported daily, to do justice to each one; a little semi-weekly can't < i begin to crowd the copy in' amidst \ , the multiplicity of accounts accumu- ' I lating from day to day. : < ! The big new tent was fully filled j i at some of the entertainments we i attended, and the seating -capacity is 1 I 1,500. Wednesday night the Sibyl ; I Sammis singers, four pretty young itirrwmon -urVirtsp vnipps blended har- ] moniously, preceded the lecture, 2 : "Facing the Task," by Dr. Rompel. " i The speaker impressed the large i ' audience with the truth that "we are ] not in this world for what we can get 1 out of it, but for what we can put ' into it." He proved that men and : women should contribute their share i i to community life by cooperation and the exhibition of the community : spirit. The lecture was a strong .presentation of the subject, full of. exrellent reasoning, and will be last- i ing in its influence, as it was one ; calculated to make for better living.. We wish we had the capacity to do j i ; justce to Dr. Rompers great lecture; j which, however, would have to be heard delivered to be appreciated at j | its highest value. The same senti- ! f ment must be awarded the other lec- j i tures that followed during chautau! qua time, as they were all of the very j j highest order and beneficial to the j ; greatcs-t ucgicc. On Thursday night, we are very | pleased to say, the prelude by the i Emerson-Williams concert company, j by their sweet and beautiful part, j put the audience in a receptive mood for the never-to-be-forgotten lecture by Dr. Carolyn Geisel, who graphi; cally and unerringly, told the people t/-* Kd vfinmr nf 70 r>v r>1H nf 40 " j Dr. Geisel's looks proves the affirm a|tive of the subject. Her lecture was startling'in the truths it contained, md if people generally followed her nrise advice they would have better lealth and correspondingly more happiness and success, because healthful bodies and sound minds, alone: with clean morals and good j hearts, beget success and happiness, j Dr. Geisel, like the other lecturers, told people some things they did not j snow, and which everybody ought to i know; that is, some of the people! svere told truths they did not know.! There are always some in a crowd tvho can't be told anything new. So\ ?ifted and grand a personage as Dr. rioicpl i? a henefactor. benediction and blessing to any nation. The concert by the Mendelssohn ; trio Friday afternoon delighted a arge part of the audience, a smaller portion of the spectators preferring :o have musicians come along and play such pieces as "Billy in the Low ( ^ ? itr* J.1. _ n J J9 jrouncis, ' "sugar in me vjuuiu, t 'Haste to the Wedding," etc. The nusic by this trio was fine, the ren-! iition of "The Mocking Bird," on the .Tiolin, being the grandest we have ; jver heard. There may have been1 some in the tent who have heard a setter rendition, although we don't ;ee how that could be possible; but ;he reporter ventures to say he has j lever heard it equalled. Then came i 'The Wonders of Burbank," in a ectuie by Henry A. Adrian. Right tlta otta 4-a Clf AW 4" A. f aI'A Ky?AO 4"V* I 1CJ.C ?c: nave ouup tu uicatii. ? We confess our inability to handle :he mighty and weighty matter;* so Dowerful in its essence, so wonderful n its scope and so eloquent in its ielivery. It was just simply master-: y and magnificent, and we wouldn't ike to hear any man dispute it. This vorld would blossom as the rose and . leserts bloom, with waste places soon lumming with life, if we all had j sense enough to set busy alons: Mr.. Adrian's line of talk.

Many people like it; we do not. But not- j writhstanding the use of French, Miss \ Stagings is an eloquent song artist i with a voice rich and full of the; melody of sweetness and beauty. | uiic uui UKUcioLaimiw^ i lould tell that, and when she sang; the songs all of us know m this com-! munity everybody within the sound of her voice, except the grouchy,j were delighted. She is Tiot only an 1 excellent singer, but her appearance j is very attractive, in gracefulness as j well as modesty and beauty. In fact, j we were struck with the bearing of j all this chautauqua talent. Aud to those who have adverse critcism of bhe abilitv of anv one of the enter-! tamers, we would just like to say that j all chautauqua entertainers are nec-| essarily attractions, else tfoey would I not be where they are. They are; srood, better and best. We come now to the New York; ^pera singers and Opie Read's inimi- i table lecture on "Human Nature and, Politics," Saturday night. The con-| cert was charmingly refreshing, due j greatly to* the fact that the quartette ! home soncrs. The members of. O w tbi? concert company took with the audience, both because of the excellent singing: and the pleasing demeanor of the performers. The inspiring music was followed by a lec-; ture ?hat has never before been ex-; celled in the riveted attention of a N'ewberry audience. Opie Read is a marvelous speaker and his lecture was thrilling, alike in the intensity of its execution and the strength of its concepton. Opie Read is known. throughout the nation, his great abilffir ViQirino' lrmcr cinpp ViPPT) VPrn.ornizeH ii/.y "*"vv o i and appreciated and his works ac-! complishing much good for humani-! ty. No one hearing him could fail in receiving benefit. To minds capa- I bis of understanding and souls re- i sponsive to the call, the four lectures * already given are alone worth the j price of a ticket, to say nothing of:; the other features of the attracting; chautauqua. The lectures contained j wholesome food for both mind and i heart, and if the minds and hearts of the community could blend and beat j in unison there would be great and I rrlnrinns t.imPR. From what has come and gone, we anticipate with joyful thrills the restj of the chautauqua.
