presided, and the secretary, Mrs. Itobt.
Team was 1n her plate as usual. As
Mrrt. L. S. Davidson, who was a dele
gate to the remit district conference
held in Lancaster, could not be pres

whh postponed until next meeting. The
paper on "Tho ileal Lincoln," written
by Mrs#. A. C. Ajicrtyn, and recently
published lit the fttate by our I'. I).
l*? state historian, was brought up for
discussion. The writer has received
Letters from men of prominence from
almost every section of South Caro
Una, and with one exception all coin

are to be preserved by the South CarO

Uy future generations, and as this i>n
per was written by one who lived dur
L\ig. the Lincoln administration, it was
thought by some to l>e sufficient Im
ppifance to warrant further research.
Miss Nettles made a motion to this'
eff<jct, but Jthe motion was debated.
The medals offered by the Chapter for
the, two best essays on "The Confinl

Joak place iu the Metho<list church
Wednesday afternoon.
The marriage was one of the most
beautiful, taking place here for many
jMft'rb. The church had been beauti
fully jtlfHkjrate<i with long and short
leaf 'pine, intermingled wfth southern
smilax, against a background of white.
Promptly at 3:30 to the strains of
Mendelssohns wedding march, the brid
al party entered the church, lirst the
little ribbon girls, Anabel Floyd and
Harriet Lewis. They were followed
by the flower girls, little Leona and
Elizabeth Lewis. Then came the ush
ers, Mr. D. F. McGougan and I)r. C.
S. Cox. ~
The bride entered on the arm of
her brother, Mr, W. A. Floyd, of Green
ville. 8. C., by whom she was given
away. Her costume was a lovely fawn
colored traveling suit with accessories
to match. f

ShIIh and Sergo Combinations Favored
With Figured mid Wain Material*.
Now York, May l.-?-Perhajw the most
noticeable (hint; about the summer
stylos Is their decided youthfulncKN ;
this Ik txrth in lino and ?>olorlng. The
straight HiumI frocks ami nulls of serge,
gabardine, tafTota aiul falllo, lend grace
and youth t<? alt typOH of tlguro. For
Instants, a yoked, pleated frik'k of dark
blue sorgo trimmed with black taffeta
may be worn by the large woman or
the small olio with equally gixnl re
suits. one particularly g<?od model
worn l?y a largo woman, at an oxhlhl
t ton recently, was made with a deep
shoulder yoke of black tatYota, the serge
laid In deep, Hat pleats, hanging
straight from the. yoke. A girdle, con
sisting ?>f two narrow stitched straps
of the black v.llk, came well down ovor
the hl|>s, giving a long, slender api>ear
ance to a rather heavy tlguro. A pret
ty adaptation ?>f the same stylo of
dress Is Illustrated here In serge for
the slender, younger woman.
Satin Is effective with sorgo; and
of course the combination of navy blue
sorgo and black satin is quite as
ular this season aguln as It has been
for several seasons past. One sees nia
ny smart sorgo frocks with sleeveless
coatws of black satin, half .skirts of
satin, sleeves of satin, and the various
other notions favored for the modish
combining of two or more contrasting
materials. Scarcely a frock appears
tlie.se days made strictly of one mater
ial. It is a fad which makes for econ
omy and becomlngness.
The sjwrt costume is another youth
ful notion. It imparts a delightful
feeling of freedom, both of movement
and Spirit. There is something very
l>ecoming and exhilarating about the
combinations of vivid colorings in the
wide striped, checked and printed nov
elty fabrh-s now being used in skirts
and suits. The middy-blouse costume
is |>opulnr with all ; one of the new
materials being used for middys Ls an
adaptation of the old-fashioned jean.
This material wears quite as well as its
ably priced, and a most satlsfaet ry
material generally for middy blouse
and accompanying skirt. An effective
combination for a middy costume is
one of the bright awning striped lin
ens or . ducks, with blouse of plain
white, collared and cuffed in the stripes.
One of New ork's smart shops is show
ing a middy blouse which flares smart
ly over the hips ; the idea Is novel and
attractive In Its up-to-da tenets, quite
in accordance with the season's sil
houtee.
Kershaw Won The Debate.
It would have delighted teachers and
pupils i>f the Kershaw Graded school
if thpy all could have been present in
Oamdeij Inst Friday evening to hear
the debate, in which their representa
tives, Miss Lathetes Hardin and Italph
Eppley, won the honors from their
com j>etl tors of the Camden high school.
The decision of the Judges was unani
mous but it is not to the discredit of
the Camden debaters, both of whom
dkl well; Miss Bateman deserving
much credit for the force and charm
of her delivery. But the Kershaw
debaters had the better argument* and
presented them, with much force. Thr
audience was very appreciative.
In the ball game In the afternoon
between the Kershaw High school team
and Camden ball team, the Kershaw
boys were defeated by a score of 0
to 5, tHe game being ended before the
ninth Inning, owing to the lateness of
the hotir. - Pour of the runs made by
Kershaw were gained In the lnnlnfc
which <#ncluded the game. ? Kershaw

In a Comedy of Romance and Adven
' (ure at The Majestic Today.
"Nearly A King," one of the most
novel screen comedies ever conceived,
combined with screamingly funny situ
ations, moments of tiio tendorost ro
mance and scenes of gripping, thrill
ing suspense. It is further distingulsh
e<l by the fact that for the first time
since his association with the screen,
Mr. Barrymore interprets two charac
ters simultaneously. Tin* fact that
one is un American and the other a
Prince, whose romance becomes con
fused, adds to the Interest. In the
end, however, each marries Lhe girl of
his heart, but not until they have pro
ceeded through the most startling and
humorous series of trials nnd adven
tures i>osKible to imagine. Also on
the same program with 'Nearly A
