J. L. Norman and family have i
? m this week moved to their new
home in Whiteville Park.
A >
Fred C. Black, whose home is
about two-and-a-half miles east '
of Yorkville, had his right arm
cut off at the elbow last VVednes- j
day evening while feeding a1
corn shredder.
The Fort Mill chautauqua is
said to have been a losing venture
from a financial standpoint.
Could this have been due to the
fact that "it was not properly
advertised?"- York News.
^ J. L. Spratt. L. M. Massey,
J. M. YVhite^and R. A. Fulp, of
Fort Mill, are among the York
county men appointed by Governor
Manning as delegates to
the Southern Commercial Congress
in Charleston next wpo'*
Mrs. Mattie Rogers, of this
city, on Saturday received a tel
egram saying that her son, Roy '
Rogers, was in a hospital in
Danville, Va., as a result of having
lost an arm in a railroad accident
in that city earlier in the
day. No details of the accident
were given. Rogers is about lb
years of age.
An enjoyable event of the last
week was the annual banquet of
the local military company given
in the armory Wednesday night.
A number of invited guests, tor
gether with the members of the
company, were present and. after
supper, listened to short addresses
by Capt. S. W. Parks,
Mayor B. E. Patterson and Capt.
T. B. Spratt.
The Rev. W. H. Hafner, of the
Fort Mill Presbyterian church,
announced from his pulpit Sun*
. day morning that he had not up
to that time leached a decision

the call given him recently to the
church at Gaffney. Mr. Ilafncr
stated that this call was the third
he had had from the GalTney
church since entering the ministry.
Peter Karas, a well known
Rock Hill restaurateur, was in
Fort Mili Tuesday and completed
arrangements for opening in
this city an up-to-date restaurant
and fruit and candy store. It
is understood that the Stewart
building on Main street will he
occupied by the new business
and that the necessary arrangement
of the interior of the build
ing and the installing of fixtures
will be made within a few days. ;
The firm of which Mr. Karas is
a member operates restaurants
in several different cities.
Community Day was observed
by patrons and friends of the
Fort Mill crfldpd school Fridav
A large crowd of both men and
women gathered at the school
building early in the morning
and labored untiringly throughout
the day in renovating the
building and improving the
school grounds. As a result of
the day's work, and work which
has since been done, one would
scarcely recognize the place as
the same. The work on the
grounds is to be continued at
intervals until the walks and
driveways mapped out have been
completed and made permanent.

named, will be served next Thursday

Clovf. Went "Dry."
Clover, \ork county, the "Last
Chance" stand for the morally
stuntrA of Gaston county and
of,.er adjacent Tar Heel territory,
is no longer an open port of
entry. As a liquor depot for
North Carolinians it is no more.
For the last two weeks the number
of Gastonians who have
traversed the highway from
Gastonia to Clover formerly
such a popular road has been
negligible. The attraction is
gone. There is some liquor in
the Clover depot consigned to
North Carolinians but it is likely
to remain there until it is shipped
back to t he manufacturers.
This condition of affairs came
about as the result of a ruling
made by .Judge Rice who was
holding court at York. He
i 1 _ _ i ^ I
resurrected an Old dispensary
law which says that non-residents
cannot come into South
Carolina and ^et liquor which
has been shipped to them there.
He produced the law and there
you are. The Clover people tire
triad and the North Carolina
peoph .hat is some oi them I
are mad.
