Everybody knows that Eugene Werts has the ability of a good auditor. Mr. Thomas Jackson of Jacksonville, Fla., is spending his vacation in \"ew berry with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Jackson. We smile with them, for when an only son, the only child, returns after a long absence to the old home it brings joy and gladness to the lonely hearts around the hearthstone. And all absences of ioved ones are long to "the old folks at home." Mr. Humbert- M. Aull, a very popular young bachelor of Newberry, whose popularity extends to other counties, already had three of the brightest little nieces that ever sweetened home, and now there has come another little niece which arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James L.

Ever since serving as city school principal since 1900 to 1905 the oeople of Georgetown have been making Professor Bynum superintendent of the schools. This shows, above everything, that Georgetown likes him. It is not always the case 'hat a school superintendent gives universal satisfaction. . / Mr. J. L. Reeder, after a month's visit to his former home county of Mew berry, left on Thursday for his home in Wellington, Texas. Mr. Reeder is with the firm of Singley Bros., grain dealers, doing a large business in Wellington, the county >eat of Collinsworth in the Pan Handle'section of that great section of country. He had just heard from his firm that the crcps were fine. Mr. Recder says there are no boll weevils in that part of Texas, although they are in other localities of that state. We were pleased to meet him and hear him talk. Mr. Charles A. Bowman will be retired on the 20th instant under the retirement act of May 22, 1920.

Now that people are getting plenty ! of rain they are allowed all the free water wanted. Rhoda Royal's circus will show in Newberry on next Thursday. It is a three ring show and will exhibit in Gilder's field. The Piney Woods Farmers' union will hold their annual picnic at the urual place on the 2oth instant. We are thankful for an invitation. The Ladies' Aid society of the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer. ?will meet Monday afternoon at C | o'clock with Mrs. J. M. Kibler. People generally, ladies especially, are always interested in a new baby. It is wonderful how so little a thing can create so big a commotion.

There are many things in every day life that we do not understand, but it would be too personal to mention them, although the temptation to do so is very great in many intsances. There jnust be a good many strangers in Newberry, else there are living here lots of people we don't know. They are more observable in the crowds at the opera house. It ought to be that way in the churches, but "it ain't." The subject of Dr. J. L. Daniel's sermon at Central Methodist church next Sunday morning will be "How to Put on Your Coat." It is a good topic for this time of the year and we know Dr. Daniel will handle it thoroughly. The annual meeting of the Woman's Missionary convention of the Reedy River association will be held with Fairview on Friday, September 3, instead of August 27.

Dr. Houseal attended him and made him iic r-nmfAvt.shlp ;k nnssible. John IS well liked by the people generally and they sympathize with him in his misfortune. It is doubly hard on a man with only one hand to have a] broken leg. But it "could have been j worse."

The lucky man (in the films) is Jimmy Finlayson; the spurned villain is Charlie Conklin, whose name in the ' i play is Joe Dalton, a brother of the no less despicable Jack Dalton of evil fame. Nearly every story in ur'nifVi tViP rVinrmincr Phvllis aDDearS w\ ? . rinds her married before the final fadeout. The reason for this is that Sennett comedies must always have i happy ending, and nothing can be happier than the contemplation of :he' lucky youth that wins her. All .his happens in Mack Sennett's latest Ive-reel comedy, "Married Life,:' which comes to the opera house Friday. "A Splendid Hazard." One of the most unusual romances j ever conceived by an author is pre- j ;ented in Allan Dwan's production of "A Splendid Hazard," Harold MacGrath's vigorous narrative of love and buried treasure. It presents in true perspective the transitory influence of infatuation as opposed to the solidity and permanence of love that springs from sympathy, understanding and sincere affection. "A splendid Hazard" relates the | romance of Karl Breitman, who is obsessed with an overwhelming ambition and Hedda Gobert, beautiful orima donna. With the deliberate intention of securing a treasure map in Hedda's possessfon, Breitman woos the diva although <;he has no feeling fcr her. She falls jftiadly in love with him. Having secured the map, he ignores the pleas of the woman .and sails for ? T . America. Her great love having blinded her sTie abandons her career and follows him. _ Arthur Cathewe, her manager, who has proposed to the singer many times and been re- j iected, insists on .accompanying her j L.o America, thus complicating the love story. This interesting situation comes m a head in a powerful climax in far away Corsica where Fate untangles :ne twisted skeins of the romance. 3reitman is played in "A Splendid j Hazard"' by Henry B. Walthall while the character of Hedda Gobert is enacted by Rosemary Theby, and that }f Cathewe by Philo McCullough. "A Splendid Hazard" is presented by the Mayflower Photoplay corpora;ion through First National and is coming to the opera house on Monday.
