Armis tice day was ushered in on the 11th at eleven o’clock. Legionnaires and coast guard urtits vied with each other at the dance and frolic. Pretty Salvation Army-type girls waited on the assembly with hot doughnuts and chewing gum; lovely Red Cross nurses served hot coffee. Therejwere “seconds,” too, on everything. Tns evening of fun and laughter was planned especially to drive away the thoughts of cruel war with its hatred. It served its purpose for laughter and cheers. mingled with the shuffling of many feet. At eight-thirty men, women and children began arriving, until as late as ten o’clock it seemed there would be no room for otfiers still coining. However, the spacious Copeland’s hall was taxed - to its utmost and .there was room for all. Starting with square dancing, the whirl of flying feet was mingled with the call of one familiar with “calling” such a dance. The floor, soon became so full of those wanting to show their prowess that a list of names had to be called for each dance,^;until all who had any desire to try their “dogs” had the opportunity. Few of the legionnaires had lost their “pep” and most of them danced with the younger generation. Not to outdone by their “lesser^ halves,” the ladies were, in the thick of the fun. There- was plenty of it for all. Not a dull moment was spent during the course of the evening.

Barnhill ■rifiBegedly made a confession to the arrestidg officers, and implicated Burton and the other negroes. Burton had been employed at the warehouse here as cotton sampler and is said to have had access to the building from early morning uhtil closing time. Accord ing to Barnhill’s admission of the thefts at Laurens, Burton was in duced to acept a bribe of $26 a bale for each one prepared for delivery to a truck or trucks that appeared at the warehouse at dfwn or earlier in the morning for the loot. Williams and Camp allegedly had been em ployed by Barnhill as drivers of the cotton trucks, he said. Both were in dicted by the grand jui^ along with Barnhill and Burton, but they refused to enter pleas of guilty, and it was learned at the sheriff’s office today that both would probaly be released on their own bond.
