VEWBERRY COLLEGE REUNION f,
AT LITTL EMQUNTAIN p
There was the usual reunion crowd :]
it Little Mountain last Friday. Some w
people said it was the largest yet and .
others estimated it not so large. J o
:-an never tell. It always seems tc :
me to be about tlic same from yea:
:o year counting back many years, i V
iave been attending these reunion? a
for many years now and the crowd 5;
always seems to me to be about the ('
:ame in size, though this year it did p
ook like there might have been sonu h
:en thousand automobiles on the J
grounds and at the station and a
around the school grounds, if thai tl
many cars could get in that, space. ji
Every available plot seemed to have |
:>ecn occupied from the time you l
reached the school grounds this side n
)f the mountain on until you reached v
:he foothills. And nary a buggy war \
:o be seen. Strange is it not? And y
L suppose in the next few years the j
People will ccme 'by the air route, j
[t is a great gathering place. It if ;(
eally a reunion of the people for f,
nany miles around. Some of then. 0
never see one another except on 'j
:he?e annual occasions. And it it i
veil for them to come and renew old w
acquaintance.
There are two or three sugges
iions I will venture to make, and il 0
;hey are not honored J will
lot be hurt in the making. 1T
The speakers stand had been ^
moved further up the hill and
;hat is an improvement, though it it [
some struggle to reach the top. Now A
f the stand were just a little larger .
ind made to accommodate more peo- -j
lie it would be an improvement. The
iccommodation for the speaker- is a .
xreat improvement over what it wa: j
A'hen I first undertook to speak at Vi
his place and the attention to th [
-peeches is much better than it oncc t?
;vas, and this is due largely to the ~
Improved accommodations for the r
tudicnce and for the speaker. It h ::(
i delightful place in which to speak h
and the auditorium was filled and ?
here were many on the ground out- v
ide who would have been more com- n
rortable if the auditorium had beer.
made larger. The other suggestion p
s the convenience for water is not a
what it should be. On a hot day .r
,'uch as the reunion day generally is. .
i _ j r? + oil iKo ..
.rnere is nuuu xur wttici auu <*u i ^
-oft drinks that may be sold will not '(
!ake the place of water. There is a o
Sine spring, but to furnish water for i<
such a crowd as is always here it is w
not possible to get at the spring.
It seemed to me that if there had
been placed at different positions t
along the valley and on the moun- a
lain side a number oi large barrels u
with ice water, and .even if there ^
should be a charge of a penny say
for a glass of water, it would be a
ireat thing for the thirsty and the n
penny would be gladly paid. That is 0
f it could not be free, and I sup- w
pose there is no fund with which to M
"ay for ice for the public, but I have 0
reen such arrangements for water' j
?t bic: expositions and I found them
i great convenience. And then there
:s another suggestion, and it is cf far
rreater importance, and that is the ^
landling of the crowds and the j
rtany cars. I noticed that there was \
? road or driveway made a circuit so fi
;o speak. Why not require all cars ^
:o <ro in one driveway and out the f
jther. In this way there would be -i
10 meet in?: of cars in this narrow c
Ir-iveway and the cars could be the n
nore easily handled and there would j,
?e less danjrer of accidents. Just tfo g
round the belt as it were and then ^
v*ou would not meet any car and a
here would be less danger of the 'D
1 rive way bein;r blocked. And then c
t would be well to have the belt line :<
iust a little wider so that the people
*vho were walking to their cars and
.vho had walked from the station /
:ould get along without (the ,<Ianrer
of being run down by a car, and
.hen let the cars park along the way
jnd out in the woods but be sure that a
:hc belt Ijne was open all the time. r
The wonder is that the crowd and ft
:he cars were handled so well. There n
Aras no accident that we heard of and 0
;he thousands of people and cars t]
went and came and no one was in the o
Ko-hfnc* ininred so far as we learned, e
v w ? ^ ? ?
The crowd was jolly and in good n
spirit all the day long. v
?o? tThe
program was carried out about v
as published. The Rev. John J. b
Long presided in his usual happy and I
ioliy zood nature, and presented the v
speakers and the Rev. J. B. Harman u
led the singing and with the band h
ccon:panying there was wholcheart- oi
d music and the old songs were in
endered with spirit and enthusiasm so
nd good cheer and good will pre- fg
ailed all the day long. The Chris- .h
an college, past present and future
as discussed by Col. E. H. Aull, /(
ic Rev. Enoch Hite and the Rev. C. s
. S'healy rc?spcctively, rtlie nria j u
peaker using the history and hard- vv
!iips of Newberry college as a type m
f all the Christian colleges and re- tli
erred to that period of the history ;s
articularly up to the removal of the re
ollege from Walhalla to Newberry, x
1e others speaking generally of the .v
'ork and future of the Christian '1;
ollege. Mr. 0. W. Bundric-k spoke ^
f Summcrland college and her mis- a
ion and some of her needs. The x
pening prayer was made by the Rev. ;-)j
V. H. Roof and the words of welcome v
*ere beautifully and approporiately :n
poken in an address by Mr. W. H. b<
" :mo fttnf mnvfi
ferric*, it sci.iiio LU u?v- uiuv
coplc give attention to the speak- r
ig than was done in former days at ;-<
icse reunions. And no doubt if the in
uditorium was enlarged as suggested ;
lat there would he more who woulc b<
sten to the speeches. I remembei v
fiat some few years ago I r-poke on )]
similar occasion but there was no
uditorium to speak of and no speakrs
stand and no scats and it was clif- ,v
cult to speak to the few who made 0j
r.e effort to listen. It was a good j.
ay last Friday and I am persuaded
hat some good was done and some ,.]
?ed olantcd that will bring forth y
rait in due season. This is an ideal j.
lace for such events and with just a r(
ttle more improvement it would in- r
eed be a place the like of which
rould be difficult to find. ,v
0 'u
Owing to the many automobile? t
lat were there and not being an ex- rc
ert in the handling of a car I dcided
to come home around by Polaria
ana this I did. They say it
Kvays rai"'- on these reunion occas- e?
)ns and this one was no exception. ->]
he clcud came up very suddenly and h<
'hile there was no evidence of rair. ni
hen I left Little Mountain by the 3
me I had passed Pomaria there ap- 1J:
eared as black and threatening 2 L\
loud as you ever saw, and by tneiij
ime I rcachcd Richardsonville the f;
rind and the rain were in evidence, ai
drove in to the home of Mr. T. P. o<
Richardson and there waited for the ni
louds to roll by. There was a fine st
ain here and I am toJd that it ex- '1
ended on down below Pomaria and [
he mountain. And it came up as ei
ar as Prosperity and all the inter- 3
ening territory had a good rain, but Ic
one this side of Prosperity. And m
ain was very much needed. The fine tl
rospects of a good crop some time m
?0 were fast disappearing and the !i
ood corn was withering and the p
otton r.ot looking so well all for the pi
rant of a little water. In fact un- s]
3ss the rains soon become more gen- tl
ral the prospect for a fine corn crop }
5 going to be dissipated. The cotton "
> not yet hurt as it seems to me. ir
TV.of now mad from Prosperity to J b
kittle Mountain is not improving at
11. In fact from Excelsior school 'r
ouse on to Prosperity it is worse and o'
rorse and the holes make it just like "
riving over corn rows or tlie "pun-" tl
hcons" they used to cross muddy ai
laces with and there is no comfort t>
r pleasu' ? in the driving. It is even d'
rorse thi.n it was before it was
'nrWofl and worse than the new road
pcned by Supervisor Sample from l'<
'rosperity to Newberry. It does
eem that something could be done.'1

lNNUAL TRIP TO TRINITY
LUTHERAN CHURCH j^
I d'
I am about to -be convinccd that I ni
m not so sure that it is entirely w
ight or profitable to be too unsel- A
sh. I had arranged to make that an- tl
ual visit to the old home on the sec- P
nd Sunday in August the day for ci
he "big'' meeting from the founding h
f the church, Trinity Lutheran P
hurch, the home church of my
lother, and of course I knew she 1;
wanted to go on that Sunday, so I
old her that I would be over and go ^
nth her. And then here comes my tc
oy and he wants to use my car, so
made a trade with him that if he
rouid take me over that far on Sat- it
rday afternoon that I would let him j b>
ave the car, and of coi rse bring me:p
u-k to Newberry on Sunday even-1]
g. I thought 4 hat I could make ]
me arrangement after I got that j
iv to provide the conveyance from i
icre to the church and back. One j
' my plans failed and I felt and feel ]
>t that it should not, but I guess it j
one of those cases where I am 5
)out to conclude that it is not al- ;
I
ays pro.liable to be unselfish and,]
aybe I had no right to expect it, ]
le arrangement to be made. But it';
good to have neighbors who are,'
'ally neighbors in fact and deed as ell
as name. So Mr. Rufus Bryant,: 1
h0 lives near the old home, in fact j
is bought a portion of the land, and j
i the way his most estimable wife is
sister of Mr. F"ank Devore of j;
ewberry, Mr. Bryant offered to use (
s car and if I would drive the Ford \
tat is the property of my brother- j
-law, Mr. Timmerman, who had to j;
? away, the arrangement was made, i 1
f course I can drive a Ford. Didn't;drive
111 for about seven or eiofnt.;
iars. So we hooked up and the tro<r
was pretty well but when we ar-j;
ved it was discovered that the ball:.;
tarings had worked out of one of ;
ie wheels and it was dangerous to
rive in that condition. .
?o? I
-There I was with a Ford a Ion#;
ays from home and no one willing!:
i._ -?4. .in Vtis Sun- \'
l course cu -a ?
ay clothes and no one could blame j!
m. So. I said to myself these Aulls j i
aim that thev can do things and;
iat they will do things, so here ir.'
tc test. I got out of my coat and j
)llcd up my sleeves and at it I went, j
soon had the wheel off and with the j
distance of others, there arc al-p
ays plenty* of people who know howj;
id arc willing to tell you how to do i
, I put in new 'halls and we were j <
;ady to move back. And I am writ-;
ig this with the grease from that |
heel still on my hands and that may jj
H-.o reason for the story. I must j
cplair), however, that I did not get!i
the icb until after the dinner :
3ur and that I heard a good seron
in the morning by the Rev. II. J. .
lack, president of the South Carona
synod. But I did not remain for!
ic afternoon service as it looked j
ke rain and I did .not know what j
irthcr trouble I might encounter, j
id it was w;ell. The thing ran;
:autifullv until we were within two I
iilcs of home and then it v just!
opped turning, and there 1 was in j
ic middle of the road and all that
knew and all that I could do the
igine would ,-not turn over. So Mr.
rvant hauled us all home in two
. I
>ads'and we sent the wagon and j
iules back after the Ford. They say j
lat it runs beautifully for Mr. Timlerman
and it may be that cars are
ke animals you must have them
roperly hooked up to make them
all together in the right sort of
oirit. But we made the trip and j
le old folks were enabled to attend j
icir old church at the beginning of:
big" meeting the second Sunday j
1 August. Just one year ago on J
lis same trip my old 111 suffered a
low out about a yard long just <be>re
we got to the church, but I went
> nr> iho rim and managed to get an
I<1 casing and with the use of j
shoes" got Ionic all right. It was i
len that I resolved to put on those '
ivlcss tires and I did. The next j
me I make this trip I am going to
rive my own Chevrolet.
?o?
But when you contemplate the
jad to this church you can scarcely
nd l'ault witn even a rum iyi ,
lg just a little. It is about the limit

no of the bad hills on this road is

fter the manner of fixing bad and

pars ago when there was a habit of

tany more miles from home, and

ays it might have been much worse,

lat I was not selfish enough to dci-iVn

There was a very large congregaon
present as there always is at the
eginning of "big" meeting at this
lace, and President Black preached
in the church and Pastor Bearden
held service at the residence of a
neighbor for the overflow congregation,
and the afternoon service was
in the church and President Black
preached. If we should all be spared
for another year 1 will be more than
" hir? fo take tho trin aeain. I am
ftlmost a stranger in the community
now as I have been away so lonj* and
my visits are so infrequent. I am
ihvays ?*!ad to attend service here.
The home of my maternal grandfather
stands near by the old church
i*ery much the same that it wac some
">0 years a<?o when lie died, though
Lhe place has passed out of the family.
Jacob Haiti wander was one of
Lhe founders of this church and a
hat-for member of the congregation.
I must nay something about the
Newberry road from Newberry tc
Chappells. It is much better than
when I last traveled over it, and in
fact from Silverstreet on to the rivei
bridge is in very pood condition foi
N'ewberry roads. There are sonu
bad places and the road all the wa\
is entirely too narrow. Pastor Su'bci
told me the other day that the Silverstreet
people were going to work the
road from that town to Deadfall ant
that it was to be done this week if ]
mistake not. If that is done tm
road will be fairly pood ail the v*aj
barring its narrowness. On the
Greenwood side just as you cross the
river it is bad and especially shoulc
the approach to the bridge be fixed
And I learn'that the Greenwood people
are not going to build to the
bridge from Ninety-Six just now, bu1
that the road from Ninety-Six to the
Saluda line direct to Saluda courl
house is to be the first road buill
clown this side and that work is now
being done on it. I want to repeal
that Newberry needs an outfit sue}
as the town has and a sufficient nunv
bcr of them to cover all the roads oj
the county regularly, and competeni
