Woodson. pastor of the Manning Presbyterian church, is mak ing a strenuous effort to have a $5,000 note against his church paid by the 23nd, and as tight as the times are he has succeeded in raising all but a few hundred dollars, and this balance he hopes to have in time to meet the obli gation. Petitions are to be put into circula tion soon to request the school trustees of district No. 9 to order an election on the issue of bonds. The signers of these petitions must be freehold voters, and if a sufficient number is obtained the trustees will order the election at which none but qualified voters can vote.. A most pleasant day was spent by the TnmLs editor at Summerton last Friday, and it was his intention to write a full account of the exercises, but sickness took hold of him and prevented him from performing this duty. However, the News and Courier had a represen tative on- the scene and he gave a splendid account which we reproduce in this issue. Rev. E. P. Hutson of Heath Springs, is in Manning, assisting Rev. D. A. Phillips in a protracted meeting at the Methodist church. Mr. Hutson was formerly a lawyer and a printer. Dur ing the stormy days of '78, right after the government was wrested from car petbag rule, Mr. Hutson was the chief clerk of the engrossing department.

McLeod recently adjudged bankrupt, was sold at private sale yesterday to Mr. Perry Kransnoff for less than 50 cents on the dollar. Mr. Krnasnoff bought this stock on speculation and has rented the McLeod stand where he will conduct a bankrupt sale to dispose of the goods. He is now getting the stock ready for the largest bankrupt sale that has ever taken place in this county, and we want our readers to. watch the adver tising columns of the Times to see what Krasnoff will offer the trading public: These bankrupt sales are e boon to buyers, for they give a grand opportunity to buy goods cheap The people of Manning are delightei to have Hon.

Summerton, May 1o--Special: The ceremonies incident to laying the cor ner stone of the Summerton Graded School building made May 10 a red let ter day in the history of this town. Not only the people of Summerton were in' terested, but crowds flocked in from all the contiguous territory. participatin.Z iu thc cxercises of the day. The busi ucss houses werC closed and all Lhe people busied themselves in carrying out the program and entertaining the visitors. The day's festivities con sisted of the exercises at the school building: an address by Prof. Jno. G. Clinkscales, of Wofford College: a bas ket picnic and barbecue; ball game in the afternoon and a concert in the evening. It was truly a gala occasion for the people of this community. The exercises at the school were held on and around the foundation of the new building. Crowds of children were gathered upon the first floor, which served as a platform for the speakers and masters of ceremonies, and about there was assembled the large audience of attentive and appre ciative listeners. Prof. H. A. C. Walker, orincipal of the school, presided over the meeting and introduced the speakers. At 12 o'clock the exercises were be gun with prayer, offered up by the Rev. Porter, pastor of the Presbyterian church. Thereupon the Masons, who performed the ceremony of placing the stone, marched in upon the platform and proceed with their usual and beautiful ritual, used upon all ocoa sions of this nature. In these services Summerton Lodge, A. F. M., was assisted by visiting Ma sons from Sumter, Manning and For eston. Worshipful Master Dr. Win. R. Mood conducted the part of the service performed by the Masons. ARTICLES DEPOSITED IN RECEPTACLE.

These articles were placed within the metal box, dropped into the recep tacle and the stone was lowered into place. In this task Dr. Mood was as sisted by Contractor Weathers of Sum ter. The work was submitted to Dis trict Deputy Grand Master W. C. Da vis for approval. Mr. Davis made the examination and rendered this verdict: "I have tried and proved this stone by plumb, square and level and find it well formed, true and trusty." After the usual addinglof"the corn of nourish ent" and the anointing with wine, Worshipful Master Mood addressed the assemblage on the significance of the day's ceremonies. DR. MOOD S REMARKS. He said in part: "Friends and broth ers: I beg to announce in the presence f all here assembled that we are law ful Masons bound by solemn oath to plan and erect beautiful buildings for ur joy and use, and for future good, ad to serve faithfully the Great Archi .ct, even God, Lhe builder of the uni erse. It is our duty and wish, so far s in us lies, to carry on the great work f building: we seek to imitate Him, our great example. His omnipotent and shaped worlds upon worlds and sent them bounding into space: and all the beauty of star, moon and sun is His andiwork. The Great Architect laid the first corner stone, and upon it >uilded a universe, beautiful in design, onderful in execution and marvelous o contemplate. We are today but fol owing this example and it is fitting on this 10th of May, Memorial Day, when our minds turn back to review the glories of the past, to turn them to the future also. Today we provide for our children, the men and women of the days to come."' Dr. Mood has a eculirly pleasant and forceful man ner of address, and his short but clear cut speech m:ade profound impression. This concluded the services by the asons and Prof. Walker again as ued direction of the program. It was here that he announced with many re grets the inability of Prof. W. H. Eand to be present as was expected. ADDRESS BY PROF. CLINKSCALES. The Rev. J no. Kershaw, rector of the Episcopal church, then introduced the speaker of the morning, Prof. Jno. G. Clink-scales, of the Wofford College faculty. This eminent educator is known throughout the State and en joys an enviable reputation as a lec turer on educational subjects. He pos sesses a style altogether his own, a covicting genuineness and seasonable wit withal!. His hearers were attentive in the extreme, despite the heat and discomfiture of position. The theme of his address was congratulations upon the step taken thus far in the estab lishment of a high school, which is the crying need in the Southern education al system. After drawing a most vivid compari son between the condition of our coun try during President Washington's ad ministration and the present time, the speaker declared that the North had forged far ahead of the South in all lines of progress and especially in the matter of money-making. "All the money is in the North," declared he, "and it is still going there. It is per petual motion-this flow of the dollars into Northern coffers." Prof. Clink-scales then gave his opin ion on the cause of these conditions. He said: "The North is not ahead of the South because of superior brain ca pacity, nor because they were victors in a great civil strife; it is because they have spent more time and more money in the education of their children than the people of the South. No sooner had the Pilgrim fathers landed on the rocky and bleak coasts of Maine than they began the erection and institution of schools. That is the secret of their superiority, -they 'put their money in the brains of the youth and today we see its results. As an example of Northern thrift and advancement.I would direct you to the patent office in Washington, The State that has spent the most money for education leads in the number of patents granted. In stead of putting our money into the training of our children, we put it into cotton mills: they invested in brain stock. the cotton mills followed quick ly andl their dividends have been great "My friends'" declared the speaker with emphasis, "the realization of the value of a child is the secret of a comn muty's success. Let cotton mills alone; they are doubtful blessings un less child value has been properly ap preciated. Invest your capital in mind culture and the cotton mills and other industries will follow quickly enough. The real value and everlasting glory of any community consists not in its man ufacturing enterpises, not in its broad acres, nor in its commercial interests, Ibut in the quality of its men and women- This school building, which today you are erecting, will be worth more to your town, to the community and even to the world than a dozer cotton mills. Develop these boys and girls, for some day they will go out int the world to aeet their infiuncn for either good or bad; to either eu noble or to degrade." Prof. Clinkscales urged the peOP1 to establish a high school, citing th' glowing example of German's big school system. The speech was forceful and was we] received, calculated lb produce iuel good. THE SCHOOL BUILDING. 10 may be appropriato to stato Jus here that the building now In th course of erection is the result-of grea and noble effort by Prof. H. A. C Walker, Messrs. Scarborough, Lan ham and Rutledge, of the board o trustees; and a number of fine spirited enterprising citizens. The movemen1 was begun in March of last year, whei the district was bonded for $12,000 an< a special tax of 5 mills was levied. Thi vote was taken and opposition to the scheme numbered only one. Prof. Wal ker deserves a great deal of credit foi his part in the development of Sum merton in 1897, upon graduation fron Wofford, be organized the school at this place. Previous to that, there was not a brick store or building in th town; now there are nearly thirty and only one or two frame store houses. I seems a clear examplification of Prof Clinkscales theory, viz, "invest it schools and other things follow." The people here are proud of their town, and well they might. be-it is destined to be a city of importance, the home of culture and refinement as well as ma terial high standing. The school building now in the course of erection is to be a handsome two-story edifice, costing approxima tely $15,000. The material used in building is the latest improved con crete; this is being manufactured on the premises and with the sand from the excavation The building will be heated by a modern furnace and fitted up with other conveniences. There will eight classrooms, superintendent's office, lady teacher's room, boy's read ing room, girl's reading room, and an auditorium with modern opera chairs, and large stage. This building, when completed, will be one of the best and handsomest of its kind to be found in any of our small towns. The teachers who will go into the building to take charge at the opening of the next session are: H. A. C. Walker, principal; Miss Inez Felder, Miss Lida Scarborough, Miss Jane Felder, Miss Cora Collins. Music department: Miss Anne Bur ess, director; Miss Elsie Walker, as sistant.

We regret exceedingly our inability to do justice to the "doings" at Sum merton last Friday, sickness prevents, but the account of another is published elsewhere. We were, however, so im pressed with the beauty of the remarks made by Worshipful Master, Dr. W. R. Mood, that we requested a synopsis, which is as follows: "Men and brethren, here assembled, be it known unto you, that we be law ful Masons, true and faithful to the laws of our country, and bound by solemn obligations to erect magnificent uildings, to be serviceable to man kind, and to fear God, the Great Archi ect of the Universe. We have among us, concealed from the eyes of all men, valuable secrets, which cannot be divulged and which have never been found out; but these secrets are lawful and honorable and are not repugnant to the laws of God r matn. They were intrusted in peace nd honor to the Masons of ancient times, and having been faithfully trans mitted to us, it is our duty to convey them unimpaired to the latest posteri ty. Their beginning is extinguished in the night of bygone ages, but if our craft were not good and our calling onorable, we should not have lasted through so many thousands of years, nor should we be honored with the pat ronage of so many illustrious men in all ges and in every clime, who have eer shown themselves ready to pro mote our interests and to protect us from all adversaries. We are assembled here today before you all, to lay the foundation of a building which we pray God may de serve to prosper by becoming a place of concourse for good men and women, and by promoting intelligence, har mony and brotherly love throughout the world, till time shall be no more. The origin of the custom of laying the corner stone of a house is lost in the labyrinth of time We know that it was followed when man's ambition projected the Pyramids of.Egypt; when his growing intelligence. began tne hanging gardens of Babylon, when his soaring genius chiseled the master pieces of Greek and Roman architec ture, which have successfully chal lenged the admiration and skill of every succeeding age to surpass them; but for the first authentic allusion tc the laying of a corner stone, we must point you to that Book, one of the three great lights of Masonry, it which is written: "Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said, who is he that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Gird u.1 now thy loins like a man, for I wil. demand of thee and answer thou me; Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare ij thou hast understanding: whereupor are the foundations thereof fastened. or who laid the corner stone thereof, when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy.' We remember with feelings of awful solemnity that these same stars, great as Arcturns and Orion and the Pleides, are still shining in their courses clear and young as when first noted by the shepherd on the plains of Glim So today we have but feebly imita ted the act of the Great Goemetriciar and Architect of the Universi under whose omnipotent touch crea. tion rose in gradational grandeur ani with sublimest method, until finishei worlds rolled from their creator's fin gers and began the run of their eter nal circuits. Brethren and fellow countrymen: I1 seems to me peculiarly appropriate that on this Memnorial day, while lov ing hands all over this broad country are decorating the graves of our deat heroes, and while their living com rades are being honored in every loya and patriotic heart, that we, gathering inspiration from the memory of theil gallant deeds, and heroic selfsacrifice turn our thoughts to the future, to the welfare of our country in the bette> education of our children, in, the up lifting of mankind, that the citizens o coming time may measure fuliy up, t~ the standard of their responsibihities That we learn to "Work for the good that is nighest Nor dream of greatness afar, For that glory is ever the highest, That shines upon men as they are."
