The meeting was opened with Hrottonai?by?Mrs:?Ghoviu-MeWeyr Hlowed by the Lord's Prayer.* The Htject song, "Hark! The Herald AnHis Sing," was sung, after which the l was called by the secretary, Miss Hi Seegers. Each club member reHtndcd to the roll call by naming Heir favorite nut. s The minutes of Ht last mating were read and and apHoved by the club members. A busiH?j session was held at which tlmo Hi club members, decided to have a Hbistmas social. Also, give a short ma, "Spreading the News," in next H^th in order to raise more money ' ' v d1^. for the club . fund. The club house committee gave thej,r reports aud other business pertaining to the club was discussed. The meeting was then turned over to the county home demonstration agent, Mlaa Margaret B?Fewell, who gave us our project picture for the month, which is called "Madame Le Brun and Daughters," as. some time , it is called "The Lavure Paris."# The author, Mms. Vigee Lee Brun, is French, Nationality. This author painted her own picture by posing before a mirror, painting what waa reflected therein. This is her most famous painting. 'The portrait of the artist and daughter expresses the tenderness and affection of mq^ernal love. The color scheme is well carried out and blended also. Then Miss Fewell gave each ilub member a recipe or cook book, based on "Arm and Ht&mmar Baking Soda," which is very nice and was appreciated by all -the club members. She then took up her subject for the month, "The Attractive Gifts That Please," . giving us some good demonstrations on how to ( make many attractive gifts out of ( inner tuhes and -cloth, and other materials. We got many ideas and, hints by a display of the work the N. Y. A. and*club girls are doing. This shows us that we can save lots, of money by making more of our Christmas gifts and get a lots more pleasure but of our work. Miss Fewell gave us many good points that we shodld remember when purchasing or selecting our gifts. Little gifts that one makes may All a real need if carefully. planned. They may be delightfully personal and also express the personality of the giver. She told us what gifts to select for children as well as adults and gave some goOd suggestions on how to wrap our gifts attractively, telling some of the things we could use to add a decorative and 'artistic touch to our Christmas gifts. If we study and plan these points we should know how to select attractive gifts that please as well as how to wrap them attractively^ for a pimple, useful gift attractively wrapped brings happiness to the receiver and much pleasu^ to tfrf^lSlVftr. After Miss Fewell'8 talk which - was enjoyed by all. the tjub members greatly enjoyed some- contests that wefe boa#4 on Thanksgiving.

After const hearings lasting severs weeks at Madison, Wis., against sev en oil companies and one Individual on charges of violation of the lawi against price, fixing, on motion of ttu prosecution, Federal Judge Stone die missed the conspiracy charges, ^ Florence Defeated By Camden High Florence, Nov, 12.?-The Camden Bulldog* continued their uudUputed march toward the state championship by oompleiely demoralising a game J Yellow Jacket eleven yesterday afternoon op jlh'kM field by the one-ttlded score of ,33 to 0. The visitors, presenting one of the 'classiest tdi^ans to perforin on u local gridiron ni several yours, kept the situation well lu hand,- tallying two touchdowns In the Initial quarter and one in each of the remaining periods. The Camden forward wall was almost impregnable, holding "the locals to a lone first down, while the visitors were chalking up 14. For the Jackets, Charlie lJeiiBinger played a jam-up game, making almost half of the tackles. Julian Mc- 1 Call also showed on defense, making several of the hardest tackles of the afternoon. Myers Hicks waa the local outstanding offensive performer, making several nice gaius and booliug the ball to perfeotlon. He was robbed of one 65-yard kick by an offside penalty. ' West, triple-threat back of the Bulldogs, was the spearhead of the visitors' attack, which was centered around Raley and Richards, both having showed unusual ability. After amassing a sizeable lead the visiting coach, John ViUepigue, relegated most of his regulars to the sidelines and was content to let his second stringers carry on, as Camden plays Easley, Upstate champs, for the state title In Columbia next Friday night on Melton field. Late in the fourth quarter, S. Watts, right tackle for Camden, was carried from the field and rushed to the McLeod infirmary, where an examination showed that he was suffering from a wrenched neck. He was dismissed from the hospital last night. Watts had played a -whale of a game at bis tackle berth before being forced to leave the field with the inJury. The locals failed to complete ,the lone pass attempted while they fumbled twice but managed to recover both times. The visitors fumbled four times, recovering only once, while of the Beven passes attempted . three were completed, three fell incomplete and Harry Deberry, alert secondary Yuan for the Jackets, Intercepted the other toss. Florence missed the services of Captain Hutchinson, left guard, who watched the entire game from the sidelines due to an injured leg. The contest was staged In a driving rain which made play very uncertain as the players skidded around in a quagmire of mud. The Little Rock, Ark., conferen(? of the -Methodist Episcopal church at Hope, Ark., voted 198 to 1 for unification of the three branches of Methodism. Because of the urgent demands that j congress dp something quick toward helping business get on its feet, there is a possibility that the ambitious legislative program of the administration before congress, may be sidetracked for the moment while the solons take up the pressing problems of business. \ * FROM HONQ KONQ TO NINETY-SIX THIS DOQ TRAVELED BY HIM8ELP This is the story of a dog that globe trotted all alone from Hong Kong, China, to Ninety-Six, South Carolina. He is a native of Shanghai, a pedigreed wire-haired terrier, he bears the good old American name "Spot" and his master .is First Lieutenant John H. Williamson, of the United States Army air corps re-, serves. - - Lieut, and Mrs. Williamson are now visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs., Henry Williamson near Nlnety:8ix | following their recent landing at New ^ York on a round-the-world cruise from Shanghni. So is "Spot" a visitor, but he didn't come with them and he beat them to Ninety-Six by two days, although they started together. When Lieut. Williamson left Shanghai a little more than seven weeks ago he wanted to bring his pet along, believing that it would be a long time before he went to China again, so he' "got by" fnspection with. "Spot" in a Chinese bag. ' They sailed away, the lieutenant, and*"Spot," and had a pleasant voyage to Hong Kong where their ship docked for a brief period. "Spot," having never traveled before, decided it .was the place to get off and he debarked without looking back to see if his master followed. And Lieut. Williamson, having noticed that his dog had the run of the ship, happened not to be looking. But when the vessel set sail again and had gone sopie distance out of Hong Kong, "Spot" wasn't present. The ship was searched fore and aft, up and down, but there was no canine traveler to be found, after the purser himself had taken a hand in efforts to track him down. Then a wireless was sent to Hong Kong, after Lieut. Williamson had given a minute description of "Spot" and representatives of the steaibship company were Instructed to find the fugitive, if possible. "Of course, I thought my dog would never^be found," said Lieut. Williamson, "but when we stopped at Manila; faintly hoping that he might by* some ohance be located. 1 told General Holbrook, a friend of ours whom we visited a day or two, that I had lost my dog and asked him if he would mind having "Spot" shipped to his home. . He agreed to take charge of "Spot" mid said be would be glgd to send him to Ninety-Six If he ever showed up In Manila. "Well, we tmuea away from Manila for Singapore," continued the airman, "and imagine my surprise when we docked there to get a radiogram from Hong Kong advising me that my dog had been found. "What shall we do with him, now that we've got him?" the flDders inQuired, ... ?. ... ;; "I immediately advised them to ship him to Qeneral Holbrook at Manila, and wo proceeded on our way ?tQ "Penang, to Colombo, to Bombay, to Suez, to Alexandria and Anally to New York. I wondered how long it would take 'Spot" to get to Ninety-Six and I wondered still more If I'd ever see him again." But Lieut. Williamson didn't have any idea what a traveler "Spot" was. He shipped from Manila to Vancouver and there caught another ride. (General Holbrook having mapped his journey) by train across the continent to Ninety-Six. Two dnys before he expected his son. Henry Williamson?and Mr. Williamson up to now hasn't cared much for dogaj?received a notice from the agent at Ninety-Six that a shaggy dog was there for him. He wont up and found "Spot" perfectly comfortable in a crate addressed titr^'Lieut. John H. Williamson, Ninety-Six, S. C.," and he wondered what was the matter. ywo days later, last Wednesday, Lieut, and Mrs. Williamson arrived by automobile from New York and after the greetings were over one of the first things his mother told blm was: "John, your dog is already hard." And "Spot" bounded out to meet his master.?Greenwood Index-Jourm al. |BfteaHfeggawgaaaBwi.uij?\ \ m mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmi i wmmmmmmmmmmmjmmmm mmmmmm hv udr en S Country Club Sedan for 1938 v ' . ? ....
