WILLIAM ELLER3E PELHAM [ PASSES AFTER LONG ILLNESS Dr. William Eilerbe Pelh^m was; one of the landmarks of the town 01 Newberry. He was in ihe drug busi-; -.mi'/i ntinvter 11UI V i'Jl iiiv/. V. v lUl il CV Vjk,iv*4 tv ? ?' a century. Ho was a native of I * lamhia and the son of Charles P. Ptiham for many years editor of one of the Colombia newspapers and a professor in the University of South j Carolina and himself a highly educa.ed man. Dr. William Ellerbo Pel ham was an alumnus of the University, may be when it was the South Carolina 11 I-T/-? i Vi. t LUIlf^C. liV v?/ - ^ v .? ;j\, * i j uuwmv ^ 1875 or 18iG ar.d ai lirsL was a proscription clerk tor Dr. S. F. Fan:, and very soon encased i:i business on his o\vwi account. We think he firs: hud his store where the Newberry dru;: company how is and then across the street in ihi- siore rt.-om that stood where the .-tore ol* T. A3. Sanders ii ^ now located. Certainly ha was there 1 about 1S7B an.] ltiTS) an.': i'.-r many J years after that, and a fev.' years ] a 150 hiev: 11.sr to the store now occupied ' by the New'^erry Drag company. In the early days- of Newberry coi- * lege after its removal from Waihalla " back to Newberry, Pel ham's drug store was a favorite pla:e for the ] boys to congregate in the afternoons. ] He always, in those day.:-, kept a neat ^ store and he was friendly and kind to the boys and seemed to like- to have them around. Dr. Gray Ellesor worked for him for many year:;, and his brother Ward law Pel ham was there in those days, and they were also | congenial to the boys. He got mcs:' of the trade of the college boys at that time for the goods in his lir.e ' that they bought, though that did no: amount to a great deal, because they had very little money 10 spend, apar: f rom what it too!;'to p::y their tuition and board. Dr. Pol ham was a:i educated mat! and well informed on eu:rant events , and he loved to talk and war. possibly as well known in the county as: any man in it during his oc-tivc business career. He was a loy ! member of the Presbyterian church and for ma- . ny years was the supernitender.t of the Sunday school of the Aveleigh Presbyterian church in Newberry. t A few years ago he sold out his- : U!U? lU lliV/ -> V V/ UCX I \ L/i : company and engaged in the life in- ; sura nee business in which he was i very successful. After the death of \ his son, Dr. W. Ellerbe Pelham, a fine a physician and an excellent young ( man, during the flu epidemic of 1918. he did not seem to have the same energy that had always characterized * his life, and in fact he never recover- ( ed from the shock. And for the last 4 several months he had been in declin- ( ing health and the end came on ' Thursday night of last week about ! midnight. .] Dr. Pelham was born in Coluaibia 1 in 1854 and was 68 years old. Ho ( was married in 1376 to Miss Brant- 3 Icy Leavell of Newberry who sur- 4 vives him. He is also survived by one 1 ~ 1 ,, , ! j son, tnanes r. re;nam anu one > daughter, Mrs. Thos. K. Johnstone,;* and several grandchildren. And one brother, Sam Pelham of New York, i, Fuweral services were conducted ;J Sundrv afternoon from the residence in College street by his pastor, the ' Rev. E. D. Kerr and Rev. E. V. Babb and Dr. J. W. Carson and interment : was in Rosemont. The pallbearers were: Active?C. D. Weeks, W. 0. Mill?}-, E. H. Kibler, B. C. Matthews, R; P. Wright, J. M.

Newberry county is credited with two unique achievements during the observation of American Education iveek. First, as heretofore mentioned, the N'ewberry Herald arid News, edited by County Superintendent of Education Elbert H. Aull, issued the fi/st and only American Education Week edition published this year in South Carolina. To this accomplishment the ladies of the Newberry Civic league contvibuted much. Second, the members of the American Legion nost of Newberry last Tuesday, which was set apart a;; "Pafciiotism day" during American Education week, vished every school in the county and presented it with a handsome American flajr. At most of the schools towering flag poles had already been prepared and. when the ex-soldiers arrived, the national ensign was hoisted. These flags will wave every day during the session, save when the weather is bad. Doctor v;r? fVir.. ViiwKnvrv TTpro' ! a.id ilMUttO *11 . ? V ?# */V . ? ^ v. News makes the excellent suggestion that the teacher in each school appoint some hoy every week who will act a? color bearer, responsible for the raising..lowering: and proper care of the flag. The members of the American Legion. in Xe wherry county have set .1 mo^t commendable exumnle. The day should not be far off when over every school in this Ftate will float not only "Old Glory" but also the historic palmetto flax of South Car olina. it is a goo(J tmng Tor our (Mining: citizens to heboid these flags every day. It will he better still if they are everywhere taught in the schools what those ensigns renjesent r.::d in what tender reverence and affection they should be held.

The Purcell company, one of the [oldes: firms in Newberry, has made jan assignment for the benefit of its creditors. The liabilities are about j $200,000 and assets around $250,000. I Mr. C. J. Purcell of the Purcell comj pany has been made the assignee by ' : .,< I in I! ereUILUra ir> uausuat anu t? v [ the same time a distinct compliment | to Co!. Purcell. J The creditors should be nice to fiim | because they forced him to sell about j 2,000 bales of cotton when it reached J the lowest mark about a year ago, (and against his judgment and under j his protest. In less than sixty days II l-?r> nvifrt nf f>nfton had advanced I some ton cents or more a pound and |if he had been left alone just for a j little while he would have paid all the { inn owed and had a nice little sum ! left fc.r himself.

MS? vrvirnroDV PPT A 1<T^ ' 11L VTU?.l\n i i THE RECORD The Carolina Club Boy. j What was probably the best corn ! show over staged by club members in Souih Carolina, and what would easily rival the best in the Southern states, was the show held at November 10 and 11. County Agent Tom i Mills proved :hat, with 37 10-ear exhibits and 16 single-ear exhibits, a jcorn show can be made a beautiful as well as educational display. It j would have been an inspiration to the .corn breeder to have looked at these : exhibits of corn. The decorations and arrangements of the entire club eUrtw nf l.r.th the t?irls and the boys, : were very creditable. I Falling- upon the day of the Armistice parade, probably 4,000 people ; looked in at the club show, and no doubt a majority of them marveled at the fine corn which they saw. A , distinct honor was given the club girls and club .boys- in the parade by .the members of the American Lc'gion. The line of march was led by i a band.- This was followed by the j club girls, some in costume, some giv'ing demonstration, and others following in columns of four. It was very ex^4- Vi n 4- -fViatr nnmn jJilC I or L X11_" viUU ^ Iliac mc %? vw>?v I immediately behind the club tfirls, for > surely the thirty or more youngsters kept their correct place in ranks an-i marched a?- if they too had been 'members of the Lcsrion itself.
