SMYRL, Local Authorised Swift Agent ^ Our JLibttty Rill/ Correspondent WHIM fwykock Hill (WfltUn for last week, but recdivod too late for publication.) Rock Hill, Feb. 14. ? tor. Editor ? Un Thursday of hist week your reporter left hie habitation at Liberty Hill as his objective point to spend a few days with his daughter, Mrs. W k. Adams, and her two little girls. At Heath Springs we were fortunate e nough to meet up with a traveling v man, Mi*.' Peel, who sells automotive parts in this territory. He is a very pleasant and accomodating young man and kindly brought as on to the end of our journey in his car. We enjoy ed his oompany and appreciated his kindness very much. We traveled ov er the Camden-Charlotte highway to Lancastor, where we changed to the Calhoun highway and crossed the Ca tawba river on the new bridge which has but recently been opened to traifi . It has the appearance of being a per manent and substantial structure of steel and cement. Quite a large fill was required on the eastern bank of the river and a deep cut through a hill on the western JSank. It is cer tainly a great improvement over "the old uncertain and unsafe ferry which has been in use there lor some time, and will be of great advantage to .those who have to tr^vei that way both in saving time and money as well as greater safety. We stopped a short while at Fort Lawn, and then left the highway and took the road for Rock Hill w^re we arrived be fore night and found our people well. Rock Hill ? the "Good Town" ? is a very busy and growing little city with a large number of cotton mills and other industrial enterprises whose weekly payrolls must figure largely in the daily business life and activities >f the city. Winthrop College, South Carolina's peerless and popular institution for vhe education of our young women, is one of the outstanding attractions of liock TI ill , and is a powerful factor in .he growth and stability of the oily. The sitate has a huge sum of money nvested in the large and up-to-date plant for the better training, mentally and .physically, of our girls, and is adding more each ygar. The taxpay ers cry for relief, but just where to .nake any material curtailment of ex penses seems to be hard to find. I We spent a short while on the cam pus and in the building and eaw Miss Mazie Roberts, of Camden, but did not meet and of our other Kershaw county girls. Rock Hill has been visited during the past few months by several rather severe shocks to its material growth and* progress. First was the cyclone last fall, which cut a pathway through bhe heart of the city, leaving damaged homes and buildings besides uprooting many valuable trees which cannot be early replaced. Then came the ? big /ire which destroyed a number of stores on the corner of Main and Trade streets, entailing a heavy fi nancial loss and interruption bo busi ness, and lastly came the closing of the Citizens Bank ? one of the sup posed to be strong financial institut ions of the city, carrying a heavy , monetary loss to many small personal I depositors, as well as a number of i business houses, but we feel that oT!l of all of this the city will emerge j fresh and strong and through a spirit ! of co-operation, and a policy of "get ! to-gether and go-ahead will continue I to be "The Good Town" as of yore. | Rock Hill seems to be a church go- i ing town. All of the leading lenomina- I tions have fine and attractive houses of worship. We attended services on . Sunday morning at the First Presby terian church, Dr. F. W. Gregg, pas- 1 tor, and heard an able and, interesting \ discourse by Rev. Frank F. Raker, a missionary to Brazil, who gave some interesting facts about that big and | growing southern country. The day was rainy and unpleasant, but we . went in the afternoon to St. John's , Methodist church which Is one of the | finest and best appointed churches we 1 have ever been in. Dr. R. S. Trues- ; dale is the pastor. He is an old Ker- ' shaw county boy, but has made an ! enviable reputation as a pulpit ora- j tor, and seems to be very popular, and ! a big man in the Mefchedist conference* ] We saw Mr. Corbett Langley, form- j orly of Camden, who with Mrs. Lang ley and their young son have been j making their home here for 8<>me time and seem well pleased with tihe ' home of their adoption. We have met n number of pleasant and friendly people who seem to ex tend a welcomee hand bo "the strnng cr within their gates." All of which helps to make one feel that the well known slogan, "Hock Hill is a good town", has more in it than a mere "catchy phrase". t , After several days of foggy and Tainy weathor today (Monday) is clearing with a briBk northwest wind.
