GoaL Meeting In Columbia.
Columbia, Dec. 19.—A drive to abol
ish illiteracy^ in South Carolina, the
first g3al of which will be that every
man, woman and child in the state,
white and Negro, be able to write his
name by the time the 1930 census is
taken, ■ was launched at a meeting
here today of educators, representa
tives of every county and delegates
from various lepslative bodies and
,,tivic organizations. Janies H. Hop^,
state superintendent of education, pre
sided over the gathering.
The principal address was delivered
by Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart, founder
of the moonlight schools of Kentucky,
and director of the national illiteracy
crusade. ,
The plan to haVe all persons in the
state able to write by April, 1930,
when the taking of the census is be
gun, will depend upon the cooperation
of the state department of education,
educators throughout the state, the
state federation of women’s clubs and
other organizations.
Mrs. Stewart described illiteracy as
the most pitiable condition imagin
able and urged her audience to bend
their efforts toward the common
cause of improving conditions in South
Carolina. This state, she said, led in
the percentage of decrease in illiter
acy at the last census and she prom
ised that with concentrated effort the
1930 census could show an even larg
er percentage of (^lecrease.
Following Mrs. Stewart, a number
of other speakers delivered short ad-
organizations pledged the services of
organizatoins pledged the services of
their groups in support of the move
ment.

Casino Adds Fine
Talking lectures
Clintonians deserve the best and
have always had the best, and they
are going to have the bert in pictures,
with dancing, music and talking. The
talking pictures are, comparatively, a
new invention. Many kinds and inno
vations are on the market; some very
good and some very bad. We have
waited purposely for we knew that the
best would finally predominate and it
would be an easy matter to determine
which was the best, so we have en
tirely satisfied ourselves after look
ing them all over that the Western
Electric, which we are now installing
in the Casino theatre, is the best that
money can buy. It will be ready for
your entertainment Dec. 30th.
We are proud to announce that we
will be in position to give you as good
entertainment in pictures, with talk
ing, singing, dancing, as you can get
in New York or elsewhere. What more
can you ask for? If you want thrill,
enjoyment and a sure ’nuf Christmas,
come to the Casino, where one can
have a good time.

One Hundred and Sixty Gueata Join
In Happy Ladiea Night Celebra
tion At Festal Hodi^ . |
One of the most enjoyable events
of the Yuletide season was the ladies
night banquet held by the Booster club
at Lydia Cotton mills, in the Masonic
building on last Saturday night.
The large room was decorated in
colors appropriate for the holiday sea
son with plates for 160 guests and
boosters. Sprigs of holly and table'
decorations added to the color schemei
of red and green.
As the couples entered the room
they were given paper 'hats which
w’ere decorated with fantastic designs
and colors and. immediately created a
feeling of fun and unrestrained laugh
ter. To increase the evening’s pleas
ure, the 6-piece string band from
Ninety-Six played throughout the oc
casion and their singing halstaoed
musical menu to ah artist’s taste.
Mrs. A. T. Wilson served the en
joyable turkey dinner of three Courses
with bountiful portions to each person,
having all the extras that could be
wished for by any gathering.
The rolls of serpentine paper which
were placed at each plate added much
to the festive event by the accurate
shots that fell upon the ones near the
throwers. This created quite an en
tangling mass of varied colored rib
bons of paper, the noise of the rattlers
and blowing of horns togther with the
laughing faces, was truly a setting of
Yuletide enjoyment and carefree fun.
Dr. Dudley Jones asked the blessing
and following the dinner. Rev. John
MeSween gave an interesting talk on
“The Ideal Citizen of Any Communi
ty.’’ With his laugh-provoking jokes
which are always excellent and appro
priate, he quickly established himself
in the minds and hearts of the Boost
ers as a past master at the art of
after dinner speakers.
The club gave Mr. C. M. Bailey a
handsome floor lamp, presented by
Mr. B. D. Cox, head of the weaving
department. Mr. Bailey’s remarks of
appreciation were expressive of his
feelings and he thanked the club for
the gift in a sincere and interesting
manner.
President J. R. Cobb, presiding as
toastmaster, closed the meeting after
two hours of thoroughly enjoyable en
tertainment.

YONDER STAR
Written by Lorene Rumph, age 11
5th Grade, Florida Street School
On, yonder star that shines so bright.
That led the wise men the first
Christmas night.
That led them their long, long way.
Until they .found the Saviour among
the hay.
The little town of Bethlehem was still,
No one eotild h^ar even a rill;
But as the wise men dfew near
They knew they had nothing to fear.
What shall we give the Holy Child,
Who is so very meek and mild?
Rich gifts of mine
Will I give the Saviour kind.
To show that I love
The Father from above.

LEARN ABOUT GOODYEARS
FROM US
If you are confused by the claims advanced for dif
ferent tires, ask for proof instead of ^Halk” before you
buy. Today the relative merits of tires may he very easily
compared.
There are two main parts to a tire: (1) the outside'
Tread; (2) the inside Carcass. In both of these main
parts, the superiority of Goodyear Tires will be clearly
and quickly demonstrated to you by us.
That these supeilorities are real and vital is proved
by the fact that millions more people now ride on Good
year Tires than on any other kind. 'The last sales figures
show a gain for Goodyear Tires three times as great as
the industry as a whole.
