Johnson gives interestingvaccount of his and Mrs. Johnson's recent trip to the Imperial Council meeting of Shrines at Pes Moines, Iowa-;-Leaving Newberry on Friday. June 10 at 12-:30 we proceeded to Al- ; stc^i Wh'er* we got on board the Shriner^ special Pullman attached to the Carolina Special. This Pullman carried the Omar and Kejaz representatives and their ladies, also the represanta+was nnr? ladips from Oasis tem v.n v. ? ? pie, Charlotte, N. C.. the party consisting' of about twenty in all. We went byway o& Asheville. Knoxville,' Cincinnati, Indianapolis to Chicago. . Arriving in Chicago we were met at t^e train by a committee from the Shrinks of Medinah temple of Chi-, cago who took charge of us and carried us to the Shrine temple and other1 points of interest and entertained us : -trir ik to pt> back to our Uiivii w ua x v i. v%w 0 - ? ear for a little rest for the night. I. The next morning the Chicago com-; mittee was on the job right on time ; and they took us for an auto ride all ever the city and to all points of interest in the city. This ride lasted all : the morning, travelling nearly 100 miles and not leaving the city at all. Then we were taken to the Shrine j temple and given a fine luncheon by I ? the Shriners. After the hjneheon i the Shriners from Altoona, Pa., Birmingham, Ala., Chicago and other j places gave an entertainment in the Shrine tynple, consisting of band mu- t sic, singing, chanting and a concert, on their fine pipe organ, icr t!>e pleas- j ure of the visiting Shriners. After this we went on another auto ride, af- ^ ter which we'were again brought to the Shrine temple and were the guests of the Chicago Shriners at a fine dinner party. The men in the party were all presented with an Eversharp pencil with Shrine emblem : on it and the ladies with a box of Shrine candy, as a souvenir of the oc5 " ! casion. Leaving Chicago Sunday night June 12th. our special Pullman was * ? r?i : attacfted to .tne Lnicago onrmers special train of fifteen Pullmans bound for Des Moines, on the trip from Chicago to Des Moines ve were the guests of the Chicago Shriners. j When it comes to hospitality tuese Chicago Shrioers make us little fellows feel like small potatoes, for they; surely treat you royally. jArriving in Des Moines on Men-; day, June 13 we were met at the sta-| m 7 ?-? fZ o . 7 I (T UUJ1 uy d UV1UI.II11.ICC nuui temple who took us in autos to the Hotel Saverv, our headquarters while in Des Moines. Des Moines is a city of about 000 people and is a very pretty city. It has fine streets, a number of fine hotels, lots of'fine stores ;*:vl residences, the State Capital building and grounds are very beautiful, there are 1 fine roatis leading out of the city in. aft!* directions. There were about 75, 30 Shriners in Des Moines ani they j took care of and fed them all with- [ out any trouble whatever. Lveryj home and even the churches were opened up for the visitors. The people up there certainly knewi what the word hospitality meant and: , r\ rs. c? <4 if Anf + a +1>a -fnllecf c\ \- I taxii^u it uui tu vut j. u.ivcu j tent, for the glad hand was extended on all sides. The city spent cver( $100,"000 in decorating and electric' lighting the city for this occasion. On Tuesday morning the ShrinersI gave a daylight parade which was. over four miles long and was partiei-; pated. in by over a hundred Shrine; bands and patrons and 10,000 Shrin-i jers from all over North America. On Wednesdav nicht there was a night parade by__the same bands und patrols, which was a grand sight with ; ail the electrical effects that were; used by the different organizations. ! The costumes used in this parade. were estimated to cost 12 million dollars. After the parade on Wed-!: nesday night there was a big fireworks ; b display on the State Capital grounds " which was viewed by fully a hundred . thousand people. There were horse-! races, baseball games, auto rides, airplane flights, amusement parks, theatres, band concerts by over 50 bands, j< . in addition to the continuous carnival :i on the streets all day and all night j< long, never stopping from Monday!: morning till Thursday night. j' There was a luncheon on Tuesday in honor of Mrs. K. L. Garrettson, P wife of the retiring Imperial Potcn-!: l tate of Tacoma, Wash. On Wednes-!i ' day afternoon there was a lawn fete j in honor of the visiting ladies, and'; on Thursday afternoon a luncheon in ; honor of Mrs. E. A. Cutts <">f Savan-. nah. Ga.. wife of the newly elected j Imperial Potentate. These affairs : -.1 -oro all for thp ladies of the Imnerial 1 Council and to all of which Mrs. John-': son was invited. I: Also on Monday Mrs. Johnson had the honor of being one of 30 ladies from different parts of the country, j who were special guests of the Busi-i ness Womens Rotary club at a lun-; cheon and was called upon to maker a speech at the luncheon, to which; ~ ~ " - r. - she responded. The sessions of the Imperial council of the Shrine, which is composed of about <500 delegates from the l.r>0 Shrine temples of North America, were held in the Princess theatre, tinsessions lasting three days, from !> a. m to ?> r?. m._ with an hour each day for a luncheon at the Savory h.>tel. The biggest thing of importance that was done was ihe establish moat of the Shrine hospital for cripple children at St. Louis, Mo., to rost ^TfSO.nnn Tlitc ic t r> h*> t > >.? mai't Vi and branches will !v < tablished i:i various parts of the couutvy as funds increase. There ;t:e now :>O0.fi00 Shriners in North A.nr>ica and iaeh one of them will pay *2.00 per year to build these hospitals and kjep them up. When it K-'-ts to going: rood, this will be one of the greatest work5 of its kind ewr ait'/mptel in fnh country. A southern man, Mr. Krno-t A. Cutts of Savannah, (ia.. wis ol'Tied fn tho highest office in the Shrine, that of Imperial Potentate, at this meeting and was given an ovation upon his election by all of the delegates. Five new Shrine temnles in (liferent parts of the country were st ated. San Francisco, Ca., was selected as the meeting place for 1 '3ZZ. wnsnington, D. C., asked for the 1923 meeting. While in Des Moines we ha 1 the pleasure of seeing Mr. John Scott, a former Newberrian, who is living at Grand Junction, Iowa. He is looking veil and asked about all' of his former acquaintances in- Newberry. When the meeting was over on Thursday, we all left Des Moines feeli.ig that we had been well repaid for our trip, for everyone had been so gr.rvl to us while in the city <vi.l had made every effort possible to pyvc u.: a good time and if any we it iwav witho.it having a good time t wis their own fault, as you could hive any kind of a time you wanted and no one w.iild object. Coming back we stopped over in Chicago for a day. stopping: at the La Salle hotel and visited Lincoln park and other points, also went through the shopping district, jroing through Marshall Fields, Hillmans - id other large department stores, whicn xre cities in themselves. Leaving Chicago on the return we came to Cincinnati, Ohio and spent a day there sight-seeing and shopping. \\rc visited the zoological park which is the finest of its kind west of New York city. Leaving Cincinnati for home we travelled through Kentucky, crossing over High Bridge, which is over '100 feet above ihe Kentucky river. \V?then passed through Tennessee and along the French Broad river to Asheville. N. C. then to Spartanburg and Greenwood and arrived home on Sunday night after a most pleasant ten days trip. "Just a Plain Fakir." UdlUUa LLwnuui v.. Ordinarily, we do not knowingly waste space. However, we have set us down at present with that deliberate and fixed intent. Folks whose time is worth anything at all would do well to wind up their perusal of this article with this paragraph. With the others we want to observe further our oft-mentioned .p? 1 Snnlv Viivn r>f mi raculous dispensation. Week before last we reprinted an article front the Greenwood Index%iving a High Point, N. C., newspaper's story ol the "professor's" recent hegiera from that city. In a recent issue of the Newberry Herald and News we find this highwayman still further detailed. But before we quote our Newberry contemoprary: Our readers will recall that the "professor"' afflicted our town with a visit, but, owing to the then-approaching financial crisis, garnered only a few yen. He hung around for several days amassing two-bit pieces and was finally induced to speak in the court house. (Seeing minds will appreciate the keen irony <tf a flimflam artist discoursing to the proletariat in our temple of justice!) We insinuated ourselves into the audience but presently were forced to ?ome up for air. Hieing ourselves to our lair, we coaxed a mild diatribe from our Remington. Our linotype operator, knowing several of the "professor's" friends in this bailiwick intimately, advised against printing it and set it only after being told explicitly to d<? so. A couple of weeks later we h:ul a letter from a man in Greenwood, asking if we had said certain things OA 1 J ?kAnf fl-w? nrAfoscAV in 1 DC r>iamuu u <iwm m* jjivuj.-w., He wanted an expression over our signature. And he got it?plus. Clipping the article, we pinned it to our reply, wherein we reaffirmed all that it contained. Furthermore, the elapse of time having buttressed our belief that the "professor" was a brazen crook, we. within our limits, rent ir.s hide with verbal shrapnel. Finally we toid our querist that if the "professor' made bold to again stick his dome above the black jacks in these !parts that we would the tommy ! hawk on him. Our letter evidentl; covered the ground. for we have hai ix> further fjuestioning from tha source. Cut we would not he unduly bars! in mir arraignment of this pseud' "professor." Those of gumption win heard him that night willingly conced led his consummate mastery of th< art of making a jackass of himself His braggadocio, his palpable ignor 'anco of even the elements of what h< 1 % ? * 1. ! claimed to no a wizarn in?psycnvi ojry.?his horrible mutilation of Inn jruaffo sujrjrested to our mind ;i fca said to have been performed by Ra laani's beast of burden back in th< : nais? <?f antiquity.
