Friends of the Rev. and Mrs. S. P. Hair will be pleased to learn that Mrs. Hair's condition is improved after an illness of ^ several days. The State convention of the Baptist Young People's Union, which is in seseion in Lancaster, is being attended by the Rev. S. P. Hair as the representative of the Fort Mill Baptist church. The Fort Mill friends of Col. Leroy Springs, of Lancaster, were pleased to learn that Governor Ansel had appointed him a member of the commission to enlarge the State Hospital fori the Jnsane. Fort Mill could be made more healthful and attractive if the many unkempt yards, back lots and streets were cleaned up. In many towns there is a general cleaning-up day and much of the rubbish and trash that is I unsightly and unsanitary is carted away to isolated places. Fort Mill could profitably follow the example of these towns, and a good beginning could be made by the council putting a force of hands to work on the streets. A party of mischievous boys broke into the club house of the Fort Mill Light Infantry a few days ago and made themselves very much at home by cooking a meal on the company's stove. Capt. Spratt was indignant when i,i .> J J lit: ii'di nc-u ui tnir email uiiu thought of prosecuting the boys in Magistrate McElhaney's court, but agreed to drop the matter upon the promise of the boys that there would not be a repetition of the lawlessness. A great deal of sympathy is felt in Pineville for Mrs. Rena Cunningham over the loss of her 8-year-old daughter, Fannie Rea, who died Thursday afternoon. The little girl had been ill only 24 hours. She was a bright, attractive child and was a general favorite In the town. She was the daughter of the late B, F. Cunningham, who died about two years ago. The little body was interred in Harrjs<?n cemetery beside the v'e other father. I Vegetation of all kinds in this; section is suffering greatly from the lack of rain and many farmers have discontinued the work incident to the spring planting, the ground being considered too dry for plowing. Very nearly a month has passed since a seasonable rain fell in upper Carolina. All kinds of garden truck is showing the need of moisture and the town streets and country roads are so dusty as to render vehicle travel over them uncomfortable. For the last ten days of March and up to this time in April the mercury has been playing around the 80s and 90s, indicating remarkably warm weather for this season of the year, The seckpnd Meeting of the Mothers* club, the recently organized woman's club whose aim is to promote interest in the graded school work, will be held in the town hall Monday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock, instead of Tuesday afternoon as was announced some vlays ago. At the meeting a lecture is to be delivered on . "Hyg'ene" by Dr. Jones, resident physician at Winthrop college. Miss Minnie Macfeat, head of the kindergarten department at Winthrop, will also address the club, her subject being "Cooperation of the Home and School." Both these ladies will discuss subjects of interest to all the mothers of the town and it is hoped the meeting will be generously attended. The postofifice department has sent out a request to all patrons of R. F. 1). routes that they paint their mail boxes and posts white. It is stated that if this r course is pursued it will not only result in benefit to the patron in serving to protect his box and post from damage by the weather, but will give all boxes a uniform color and serve to fix their identity in all parts of the country as United States mail boxes, and will give them a much neater and siprhtlier appearance than they now possess.
