WMIP i f 11'" f\ wii mm ? / . \ * : -V / Closing Exercises at School. The closing exercises of the High School began last Friday night when the iltusic class, under the direction of Miss Bauman, gave an entertainment at the auditorium . On Sunday morning the commencement sermon was preached by R^v. H. J. Cauthen, pastor of the Methodist church of Walterboro. ' Mr. Cauthen was one of the pioneer teachers of the Dillon graded school, having taught here before the present building was constructed, he prefaced his remarks Sunday morning by pleasant references to the happy days he spent here as principal of the school whenDil Ion was a struggling little hamlet. It was a great pleasure to the Dillon people to have him among them again and the large audience was greatly delighted with the strong and eloquent sermon h^ preached Sunday morning. On Monday evening a large audience listened with marked attention to the literary address delivered by Prof. Jno. B. Carlyle, of Wake Forest. Many distinguished speakers have addressed audiences in Dillon, but never before in the history of the town has an address been delivered here that seemed to catch and hold the people as did the address of Prof. Carlisle Monday evening. He spoke for 40 minutes, but he has the happy faculty of saying in that brief period of time twice as much as the average speaker would say in an hour or more- Prof. Carlisle speaks with unusual force and vigor. He compells his audience to listen, and so quick and rapid is his delivery that unless one listens he is soon lost. At the very beginning he captured the audience by his personality and throughout his discourse he held them dv words of wisdom and gems of thought. The graduating exercises were held Tuesday evening when the eleventh grade composed of eleven bright young ladies and gentlemen received their diplomas. Following the usual custom the diplomas were presented by the superintendent who spoke to each V pupil words of kindness and wis/ don befote making the presentation. The members of the graduating class are Misses Hattic Wiggins, Maggie Easterling, Edith Allen, Viptrifia Hamiltnn Sallio M"nr. mac, Addie Hamilton, Lila Watson, Mary Stackhouse, and Messrs. Clark Smith, Will Carter, and Earle Bethea. The medal for the best essay was won by Miss Mabel Evans and was presented by Hon. P. B. Sellers, with appropriate remarks. Every season Mr. T. B. Stackhouse presents a gold medal to the pupil writing the best essay on any subject they may choose, and the presentation of the medal is always a happy feature of the exercises. Miss Evans' essay was on "The opportunity and duty of the school in the intei national peace movement," and it was a most delightfully written fcpjiy1"The schoo\ias do^'.ed one of the most prcsgrous Qf the many prosperous SsSjons in jts history, but in its CjSingr there is a tinge of sadngg among both pupils and Pflrons because it marks the end of Prof. Nickels' active labors as its superintendent. Prof. Nickels has done a great work at the k Dillon graded school. His heart has been in his work and his labor has been one of love- It is through his efforts that the Dillon school ranks among the foremost institutions of the kind in the state, and although his active labors must eease, the work he has done as its superintendent will live for many years to come. His departure to another field is universally regrtted, but he carries with him the friendship and good will of all who know him. BACK AGAIN.

In the morning a baseball game was pulled off between Mullins and Dillon and in the afternoon there were races at the track. What a contrast in the, two towns?Dillon with her broad streets and elegant homes and business houses, and Mullins with her narrow, winding streets.Great pity that Mullint had not been properly laid off in the beginning. Another thing that attracts the at- 1 tention of the visitor, is the gen- , eral hospitality of the Dillonites. j They never fail to make the stran- l ger feel at home when in their * town. Through the courtesy of j Mr. Jas Sprunt we were shovn . the plans for the new county cou?? house. It is a beautiful building and is to occupy one of the most eleg'"gjant sites in the town- , Mnllins Enterprne. x' The friends of Dr. J.Cabal I)aVis in M ullins will be glad to know that he is "making good" over in Dillon The Enterpiise man called on genial Doctor a few days ago and found him elegantly situated in a handsome suite of offices on the main thoroughfare of the town. He has bought a nice home in the fashionable part of the city and has it fitted up in queenly style. Mrs. Davis has a poultry farm of wLich she is justly proud. She has chickens of all ages, from the fat and juicy frys down to those in the hatching pens?in all, it was claimed, something like five hundred. The Enterprise man accepts, with thanks, an invitation to "sample" ad libitum. County Summer School. The Dillon County Summer School will be held at the Dillon High School building. Prof. W. P. Coker of Latta has consented to take charge of the work. Miss Isla McKenzie has accepted the position as primary teacher. Prof. Uoker comes to us with a practical experience of ten years good standing ^as a first class teacher in every respect, and I am sure that every teacher in the county will find it worth while to take the course. The / board of education has thought it well to require all teachers who are not college graduates particularly to attend the summer school. Those who ha/e no certificates and wish to acquire them may do so by (jompleting the course prescribed at the summer school and taking examination at the end of the term. Miss McKenzie, who will take charge of the Primary Instruction Department, is too well known to the people of the county to need an introduction, but I would like to say just here that thi& is the particular instruction that the average county teacher needs. This is where our ronntv ?tohno1<i fall short in a good many instances. In fact I will sav that I bethis is the only drawback to country schools. The teachers know very little about the methods of teaching the beginners and whenever a child is started wrong it is a very difficult matter to get him right. Tnerefore let every teacher come to the summer school and prepare herself along this line under the instruction of one of the best primary teachers. The term will begin tne first Tuesday in July. Very truly, '. -h. j\ki P. Llane. i?5f. E. B. Webster will take charge of the colored graded school at Dillon. The "Wilbur Starr Concert Co.," which appears at the school auditorium tomorrow night, i s said to be one of the best attractions under the management of the Alkahest Lyceum, and i s strongly endorsed by the leading papers of the country. . The moon was in total eclipse > Monday night from 11.45 till 12.40 and many persons who were returning from the auditorium had an opportunity to witness the phenomenon. Halley's comet, which was visible at times during the early evening, had nothing to do with the eclipse, but the weather men say that the unusual disturbances of the past few days may be due to the influence of the comet over the air currents. In a private letter written to the editor of The Herald Mr. J. W. King says that Mrs. King has been greatly benefitted by her stay at Hot Springs and that in a few weeks she will be able to return home fully restored to her former 'health. This good ' news will be received with great pleasure by Mrs. King's 8Mas friends t* Pfflon. * Old Coonty Mu- p The following lettc J Jno. C.
