KIWANIANS ENJOY
“LADIES NIGHT”
On Friday e'^ening the Clinton Ki-^
wanians reached their seventh round
of annual gaiety when they entertain
ed their wives and friends at “ladies
night.” The occasion surpassed all in
splendor., hilarity, and genuine good
•
On Saturday evening Miss Harric>t
Brawley was again honored when Al
las and William MeSMreen entertained
with a lovely course dinner. After
diaaer the gu^ts were taken to the
Presidt.nt Gilbert Blakely presided
in a happy manner and, after a de
lightful repast by Hotel CJinton, wel
comed all guesta nnd introduced all
visitors. Nearly one hundred were
joyously assen^'.ed around the ban
quet board where, with the aid of pat
ented noise makers, animate noise
makers, conf^ti, and the Preabyterian
college opchastra, the roof of the
building did well to “stay put,” and
the electric ligms were lenient not to
blow out fuses.
Attractive souvenirs were present
ed all guests and a wheel of good for
tune declared about thirty in a dis-'
tinct clam. These prizes rang^ from I
fruit caku, boxes of candy, foot
stools, and trays, to a chicken rooster.
After a number of stunts by the Ki-
wanians and musical numbers by the
orchestra, Bruce GaUoway and Chas.
A. Smith, Dr. D. Daniel of Clem-
son college, was introduced. Here fun
did not stop; he just started fun all
over again. His dovetailed jokes are
distinctly his own and the serious dips ;
that he gives you are so sudden be- i
fore you can find yourself you are j
swept off your feet by a currwit of|
hilarity. Dr. Z!^niel does not mean!
for you to weep and weep alone, but j
his very presence bespeaks, “Laugh
and the world laughs with you.’.’ |
After the ladies broke Mr^. Nichols’j
flashkgbt camera, their escorts de
cided to take them home. !
' i
Tlie success of the evening was due;
to the careful planning of the sep- \
arate committees.

1 would gladly pay you if George
would pay me, and John would pay
George, and Frank would pay John,
and so on. The question is who will
start the transaz-tion. The answer is:
I will, under the following conditions.
I am today paying my doctor’s bill.
As a portion of the settlement I am
imdudi^ my certifSed check for
1 am asking that the receiver,
Dr, Hays, endorse this check and use
it directly in payment of some local
bill ( f his and that he request that
the reigfiver of the check do the same
and so on until the check is full of en
dorsements. When there is no more
room for endorsements, and only then,
.should it be turneii in to the bank for
payment.
Anyone would gladly allow a small
diacAmnt for the collecM+w T»f « bill of
$10.00 or more, and so I am asking
that in e.ach transfer, the receiver of
this check pay the endors' r who gives
it to him 2.'>c as a reward for not de
positing but keeping th<* check in cir
culation.
I am asking that The Chronicle
publish the list of endorsers after the
check is finally paid. ^
I am asking that the check b'i only
used to pay local bills of $10.00 or
more, and that it be not sent out of
Clinton.
I am askmg that this typewritten
request be kept attac to t^e check
until it is paid.
I am asking that one hundred other
local citizens start a similar check on
a similar mission to sjieed up the
payment of local bills.
A thousand dollars more circulating
in the payment of local bills would
do a lot of good.
The check will not cost the bank
any more for final clearance than
any other check.
Being certified in the beginning and
containing a long list o ' endorsers, it
should be as good as cash.
Where the receiver is-willing (it
cannot be obligatory) it will gain for
the givei* 2.'>c disco int. It will be ve.y
interesting to see how long it stays
out before depositing, and how many
local bills it will actually help pay.
The check is of course good at any
time deposited regardless of the num
ber of endorsers, and whether the
back of it is covered by endorsements
or not. I &m appealing, however, to
the receivers in each c*ase to let it
stay out of the bank if at all possible
until full of endorsements. Don’t be
the last endorser until there is no
more room for further signatures.
Thus the check may accomplish the
most good, and perh^s it may help
me win my owi) prize, for I will give
a ten dollar prjze to the one who
sftows me by March first, 1931, the
check originally given by himself or
herself which contaias the laigest
number of endorsements, and which
has therefore settled the most local
bills. If others care to add a few dol
lars to this prize for the winner or to
reward the 2nd, 3rd or 4th best, let me
know. ^
I would be interested in hearing
from time to time from the receivers
of my check. The cheek is marked
“Use this check to pay some local
bill.” ~Wm. P. JACOBS.
