ThgJSiwanis club had a dandy meet ing last Friday evening at Hotel Clin ton with almost a one hundred per cent attendance. Several of the mem bers, disappointed over the outcome of the P. C.-Wofford game, came to the meeting about half mad but this feeling was soon forgotten and ev erybody was happy. Hardly had the Kiwanians seated themsejvcs. to devour one of Mrs. Wil son’s characteristic fine luncheons, when everybody threw away their troubles and some fine singing was indulged in. Mrs. J. F. Jacobs, Jr., presided at the piano, and under her able leadership the club had the best music program it has had in a long while. An effort has been under way by the music committee to secure Mrs. Jacobs’ services regularly. A subse quent motion was unanimously adop ted urging her to accept the work and to direct the club’s music in the fu ture. Every Kiwanian on the roll is hoping that she will accept, recogniz ing that her services will prove a val uable acquisition. Three new members were announc ed and cordially welcomed into the club; Prof. B. S. Pinson, head of the Thomwell orphanage schools, Gary Martin, well known local contractor, and T. H. Grafton, young member of the Presbyterian college faculty. These newly elected Kiwanians were heartily welcomed and extended the glad hand of fellowship by all mem- hfers of the club. The evening’s program was featur ed by a highly interesting talk from Burney Lynch Parkinson, recently elected president of Presbyterian col lege and a former member of the Co lumbia club. It w'as the first time j that the membership has been privi- . leged to hear Dr. Parkinson since he J moved to South Carolina’s best town, j »?i Dr. Parkinson in his opening re- j U marks, spoke of the fine socializing in fluence of good music. Such music, good fellowship and luncheons, make j one forget all about the football game . and furnish an ideal setting for an en joyable meeting, he said, and every body agreed with him. Dr. Parkinson made a thoughtful and practical talk on college problems common . with all institutions today, and he was at tentively heard and cordially received, xd.o.l-a mfwy mh mh mh mh mhm Hi Pupils To Give Public The first open meeting of the Wood- row Wilson litebary society of the Clinton high schobl will be held in the Florida Street school auditorium next Monday evening, Oct. 31, at 7:30.

You, too, will find that LUCKY STRIKES give the greatest pleasure—Mild and Mellow, the finest cigarettes you ever smoked. Made of the choicest tobaccos, properly aged and blended with great skill, and there is an extra process—‘TPS TOASTED” — no harshness, not a bit of bite. Willard Mack, Noted Author, Producer and Actor, unrites: **W« people of the theatre are, as a rule, extremists. This is the reflex action pom merurrought nerves. When a man smokes forty cigarettes a day, as 1 do, he must be sure of his brand. I smoke Lucky Strikes because I have found they are soothing to the nerves and at the same time they cause no throat irritation. My voice is always in perfect condi tion and I am never troubled by any coughing which might be annoying to me in my work as an actor. ,, 1 il WOMAN’S CLUB WORKS FOR COLORED SCHOOL Through the efforts of the Woman’s club, a course in domestic science has recently been provided for the colored . j| children of Bell Street school. A 1 teacher has been employed to head the jl department and give practical instruc- | ^ tion in cooking, housekeeping, health measures, etc! A room in the school building has been provided by the trustees and the Woman’s club is actively engaged in ri an endeavor to equip it to properly [[ earn.’ on the work. Already by vari- j ous individuals, dishes,' kitchen uten-; sils, a sewing machine and other ne-1 71 cessities have-^been donated. The' 11 pressing need just at present is for a cook stove and the Woman’s club is making an appeal to any one who has | a discarded stove and is willing to do- note it to help in the work. If you have such a stove, either communi cate with Mrs. John W. Little, presi- ! dent of the club, or Mrs. J. F. Jacobs, Sr., chairman of the school committee. The ladies hope to soon have the room adequately equipped in order that the work may be carried on suc cessfully for the the colored people. I Through the gift of a public-spirited citizen, the salary of the teacher has been provided and it is hoped that the course will be made both a beneficial and interesting part of the school training. *« It’s toasted No Throat Irritation-No Cough. —■■ I. ■■ ■■ I K ■■ ■ ■ M Q.l I ■ Come To The Great Anderson Fair ANDERSON, S.
