Wi A. Neville, conven tion chairman.’ Dr. L. Ross Lynn says that Thorn- well Orphanage will entertain all the young lady visitors, but that lodging in town is being sought for the boys. The total number of delegates is ex pected to run near the three hundred mark, about two-thirds of them being girls. Members of executive committee will be glad if any family in town will notify them of their willingness cause there would not be room in the to provide lodging and breakfast for city for two buildings of the same size. After this explanation you will see that because this is national work, and we all as members are the nat ional society, first and foremost it be hooves each one of us to do our part to put this project through. “Nothing will be done dn the build ing until we have a million dollars in cash in the treasurer general’s office. This is to offset any chance of placing the society under an enormous debt or obligation for the future. But the sooner we get the million, and the sooner we can break ground and lay a cornerstone, the quicker Washing ton people and our-own members, too, will realize that we are in earnest and one or more of the young men. Mr. NeVfMe|wUl be glad to get such of fers. The convention will open next Fri day, April 8, in the evening, and run through Sunday. A banquet Satur day evening will be the social feature.

CONSTITUTION HALL NEED PRESENTED Mrs. Russell William Magna, nat ional chairman Constitutional hall fi nance committee, pleads the necessity for a new auditorium, and urges each Daughter, as a member of the Nation al Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, to feel her responsibility in putting through the project of building Constitution hall. Mrs. "Mag- raised the money and worked so hard for • our beautiful Continental hall. But times change, and each age has to meet the demands that come upon it. And who knows but what in the years to come men and women will look back upon us, calling us the pi oneers of our time and say ‘we build- ed better than we knew’? ” TEACHERS ENJOY SPECIAL PROGRAM Pupils of State Training School Pre sent Clever Entertainment for Teachers of City. TheMeachers of the city, orphanage and (Joldville schools, enjoyed an en tertainment Tuesday afternoon by pu pils of the State Training school, giv en especially in their honor. Dr. B. 0.

The big argument in favor of it is to take care of our growth in an adequate manner. The society is enlarging it self at the rate of 1,000 new members a month. And we have come to the place in its development where we are given two alternatives— “One that we might limit the mem bership, limit the representation «od only have a delegated body at our congresses that can be properly seat ed in our own beautiful Memorial Con tinental hall. This limitation would stop the growth of the society,, shut ting out members who are eligible and would like to join, but would nev er have a chance of attending the con gresses and being properly seated. And by stopping the growth and shut ting out new, young members with splendid inspirational ideas on the work, all the national society would be stunted. And through lack of in terest, lack of new inspiration and many other things contingent on such i limitation we would cease to be the day afternoon at 4 o’clock at the la- j outstanding patriotic force we now • i nnv:- ^ dies’ club rooms. This is the first meeting under the newly elected pjps- ident, Mrs. John W. Little, and a full attendance is urged. At this meeting the organization will be completed, and the club has been divided into three departments and all ladies have been placed in one of the three depart ments. If any names have been omit ted please notify Mrs. J. H. Stone. If are. “Furthermore, the other alternative is one which was 'forced upon us through necessity. That is through growth and added interest we have been forced to occupy an inadequate building for our last two conventions.

I see eral other friends, to visit the school for an inspection and to attend a mus ical program presented by a group of the boys and girls. The entertainment was staged in the auditorium which was attractively decorated in bright colors symbolic of spring. The pro gram was directed by Miss Hallett. The Clinton visitors were delighted with the entertainment and favorably impressed with all they saw and heard. There were ensemble songs of a difficult nature, dances and drills, and in a skillful manner the young performers carried their parts. The costumes were lovely, and all who were present were favorably impress ed and spoke in the highest terms of the young people’s efforts and the talent they displayed. Dr. B. O. Whitten gave a few cor dial words of welcome and briefly sketched the history of the school. He read a highly interesting paper by Miss Hallett of the school’s staff, presenting from a scientific viewpoint the problems of such institutions and the advanced methods benig used for the comfort and improvement of the inmates. The entertainment was greatly enjoyed by all present and gave the visitors an insight into the work of the school which they have heretofore not had. without jurisdiction, inasmuch as Dr. Hamrick had already been issued a certificate •of election as senator from t the county. Mr. De Camp was represented by J. S. Verner of Columbia, R. B. Ban- on of Union, and T. K. Vassey of Gaff ney, while Dr. Hamrick was repre sented by H. J. Haynesworth of Greenville,' and W. S. Hall of Gaff ney. No recount of the ballots was re quested by either party, Mr. De Camp resting the contest upon his complaint. Mr. De Camp’s counsel gave notice of appeal to the State board of canvass ers upon the ruling of the commis sioners. Children’s Colds Are beat treated e*- ternally.
