There has been.some discussion recently among the business men of Fort Mill of the advisability of a bond issue of $15,000 for a water system for the town. It has been figured that the reduction in insurance 4-ates with a water system would be so great that the property owners of the town would be at little if any expense in paying the interest and creating a sinking fund to retire such bonds. Miss Minnie Perry, an aged jriaiden lady of the township, aied Wednesday, April 31st, at the home of Mr. J. R. Miller, after an illness of but a few day8. Miss Perry was the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. 0. R. Perry, who were at one time residents of Fort Mill. She was a sister of Miss Irene Perry, whose death occurred only a few weeks ago. The funeral was by the Rev. Mr. Kingsley, of Pineville. The burial was made at Blackstock church. Bennett, the little 8-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Hoagland, was the victim of a very painful accident one day the last week. The little fellow was at play in the lot of A. 0. Jones and had climbed upon an old iirmned calvanizp.-l tank when his foot slipped and in fallings the sharp edge of the tank caught his left ear and almost completely severed it from his h3ad. A physician sewed the ear back and it is now said the wound is healing nicely. A large crowd of Fort Mill people journeyed to Pleasant Valley Tuesday to be present at the closing exercises of the Pleasant Valley Academy. The address of the day was made by Hon. M. L. Smith, of Camden. There were several contests in recitations and declamations, a bigpitnic dinner, baseball game, etc., all of which combined to make the day one of much pleasure to all who attended. The Pleasant '.Valley school has just closed one of the most successful terms in its history. Prof. Jas. D. Fulp, of Fort Mill, was the: principal, assisted by Miss Lulu I Harris. The Times is greatly pleased to see the boys of the town showing so much interest in the "clean-up" campaign ?ow on. Along each of the streets of the town mav be seen Dilefe of rubbish which have been gathered by the boys. Some of the piles are | small while others have grown ! to the size of a farmer's haystack. There is great rivalry on j between the boys over, the prizes to be awarded on next^'hursday, ' and the little fellows are putting in every spare moment iti augmenting their respective piles of rubbish. Many Fort Mill people have i during the last few days ex- j pressed their intention of attending the Old English Pageant to be given at Wmthrop college, Rock Hill, on next Tuesday. Great preparations have been made for this production and it gives promise of being one of the greatest pageants ever given in this section of the country. For the convenience of people of other towns who wish to witness the night performance at Winthrop, the Southern railway will operate trains out from Rock Hill on each of its lines after the performance Tuesday night. The Colored Graded School Closed. During the closing week of the colored graded school of Fort Mill nddrpKviPQ wnro in *? rl" Profs. R. J. Boulware and M. P. I Hall, of Rock Hill. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. . Jno. T. Wright, of Yorkville. Our enrollment this year was 126 pupils. The school house is j too small and unfit to teach in. 1 I trust that the patrons will meet i [-in.a mass meeting and make arrangements to but a lot on which to erect a good school building before the next session. This | can be done if each one will do his duty. I believe the white) citizens will help us, for it is i said, "God helps those who will j help themselves." I am very grateful to Mr. ! W. B. Ardrey who gave two prizes to the contestants, and also to the friends who assisted in the exercises. A L. White, Principal. York Negro Paroled.
