W. T. Sellers returned to Fort
Mill a few days ago after a two
weeks' visit to his brother,
Nathan Sellers, in New York
city.
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. It is also
desired that patrons be induced
to imprint their names
and box numbers on boxes ir
black block letters about twe
* inches high.
