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.

I like several features of the attrac- 1
tions. 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

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

jo many singers present their songs j
in French, Italian and other foreign j

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

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. If the best has;
been reserved for the last?but could !
that be possible??then indeed are j
there sublime treats in store.

James Neil, the well known charicter
actor of screen and stage, will
ippear in the latest Goldwyn Picture

which is beehhring to get
