Bethune News Notes
Told by Correspondent
Bethune, March I#.?-One of the
outstanding social aifaira of tho season
was given at the home of Mrs.
M. G. King last Thursday afternoon
from four to six o'clock when Mrs.
King and Mrs. K. K. Tompkins entertained
the Bethune chapter U. D.
C. and a large number of invited
guests.
The reception hall, living room and
dining room, in marked contrast to
the lowering clouds and pouring rain
on the outside, presented a springlike
appearance with bowls and vaaea
of beautifdl ahd fragrant hyacinths,
narcissi, daffodils and other spring
flowers.
The meeting was in charge of the
president, Mrs. K. K. Tompkins. Roll
call was answered with names of
South Carolina writers of the present
day. Two ne W members came into
ne chapter and Mrs. G. B, King, the
I wife of a Confederate veteran was
, ted an honorary member. After
th?- business session, Miss Stella Bethur.o.
historian, sang "Die Ca'lina,"
'accompanied by Mrs. R. E. MeCaskill,
and Miss Eddie Bradham gave a
reading. "Calhoun, the Apostle of
State'- K.ghts." At the conclusion o*
this y< .'am, the guests were ushered
into dining room by Mrs. E. Z.

of St. Patrick's day, with
baskets and J*>wls of white hyacinths
and narcissi adding a pretty note to
the prevailing Irish green.
In the dining room the St. Patrick's
day idea was further accentuated in
favors and place cards with the
Shamrocks. A bowl of white hyacinths
surrounded by green candles
in green holders formed the center
piece of the table with green ribbons
leading to each place. Upon

Car Turns Over
and Kills Child
John Henry Motley, tf-year~old son
of John Glenn Motley, of the Pontiac
community, was instantly killed Tuesday
afternoon about 3 o'clock when
an automobile driven by Horace
Jacobs, of Pontiac, in which he was
a passenger, turned over on the
Pontiac-Blythewood road. Miss Pearl
Sanders, school teacher, and Mr.
Jacob* suffered slight injuries. Claude
Motley, brother of John Henry
Motley, who was also in the car, was
uninjured.
According to Mr. Jacobs, he was
driving from Pontiac to Blythewood
when he passed Miss Sanders and two
little Motley boys on the highway.
He stopped on the brow of a hill and
offered the walkers a ride. Before
he had driven 100 yards the nutomobile
skidded on the slippery road and
the heavy car slid easily and turned
over on its side. He was driving at
a low rate of speed, Mr, Jacobs said.
The little Motley boy evidently hid
his hand on the inside door handle
and when the machine turned over
the door flew open and caught him
between the body of the machine and
the door. Mr. Jacobs immediately
lifted the car from the little figurebut
death had apparently been instantaneous.
('oroner VV. A. McCain, who went
to the scene of the tragedy and mad .?
a careful investigation announced
tha* members of the Motley family
ha<i asked that an inquost not be
held, as death was purely aceidentaJ.
Sfc. ;:T T. Alex Heise, Rural Chief J
