On December 2nd, the Superintend dent of the Economy Home took the Fort Mill i>?4'ple by surpris^, Ho car ried nix of |he larger girl* over to the Union service Sunday night, held by all the churches of the town in the Methodist church. The Fort Mill oburches haveTmion services ? every first Sunday night. Of course the payors had arranged their programs, not knowing that Mr. Spaulding and the girls wero coming, but the pastor asked Mr. Spaulding to speak a few minutes before preaching, and the girls sang two songs. The pastor the congregation for' a srontri butloh without saying a word to Mr. Spaulding, giving as his excuse for so astjng, that a collection was always in order for an orphanage. This amounted to $33.00. The same day Mr. I. E. Iookadoo of Fort Mill visited the Home and handed Mrs, Spaulding ?5 .00. The following week, the Sup erintendent and Boss men of No. 2 Mill collected and sent in by Mrs. R. i JD. Hawkins $102.00. , Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Ea^on and Mrs. Ellie Parks visited thu Home Sunday, the 9th, and car ried $145.10 in cash and $2.00 worth of outing and little aprons, ready made, from the Louise Best Circle. This added to the $5.00 from Mr. Ea son, makes $310.10 from Fort Mill in one week. The , Superintendent, Rev. J. H. Spaulding, says that Fort Mill has contributed more per capita than any other town or city to the Home. He says that these good people are the most unselfish of any he knows. They help freely every time they are called upon and have never asked tbo home to take a child from Fort Mill. This looks like true religion. The trustees of the Economy Home sent out a tremendous appeal from their last meeting, October 26th, which was published in the November "Home Fire." In the same paper was an article by Major J. C. Dozier, Secretary of \he State Bumu of Pub lic Welfare, telling of his ^pspection of the Home and the good work being done there, with, the statement that thoy^ should not take any more chil dren until they get better equipment.. These facts, presented with the great need of the 500 motherless children knocking at the doors of the Economy Home, probably explain why the Fort Mill people are so gen erous The Superintendent of the Home savs tjfyjit if every town and city in the State will contribute as much per "capita, as Fort Mill has the Home would be able to take fifty more chil dren as soon as they could build a bouse. v Can we do a nobler thing than to present to our motherless children a new home, where loving hearts can care for them and skilled hands train them ? Send all money for this pur pose to the Economy Home, Kings Creek, S. C. Philip RouBch, 20, escaped from the Connecticut state reformatory Tuesday, after he had hit a guard on the head with an axe, causing his death. Following a naval investigation of the navy disaster off the coast of Cal ifornia several weeks ago, it is an nounced that none of the responsible officers of the wrecked vessels. \yjU he discharged , from the* navy. Two womeh and three men are un der arrest in Chicago under charges of having shoved not less than $100, 000 in counterfeit money in Chicago and nearby cities within the past few weeks. . , ? The state athletic commission of Pennsylvania, has put a ban on mixed prize fights, that is contests between negro and white pugilists.
