George’* ('reek, and In keeping with
long sad loving ru»tnni children »nd
grandchildren and great grandchildren
gathered at that happv, hospitable
home to rejoice with the devoted wife
and the alfeclhinate husband, who for
fifty-three vear* have gone hand and
hand along life’* varied pathway, the
love ef their morning time atill glow
ing tn their faithful heart*, and their
presence and example a treasure and »
bleasing to all (hat have kinship to
them, to all that have knowledge of
their beautiful live* More than three
score were there to give them honor
and affection in the gulden afternoon
of their long life journey. A royal
feast waa enjoy ed and when t e part
log hour came *|i went awav glad to
have had aucb privilege of meeting the
good one* so long spared to their cher
i*hed one*.
Mr* Morri- I* one of the few living

Morri* i* one of ihw sterling soul* that

8t. Valentine waek waa one of many
, pleasure* and few ernsaea. A« we ,
neared our work a mocking bird burst
‘ into glad song, perhaps a bridal hymn, ;
If the ancl-ot* were right that the birds
mate on that day. or it may iiave been
a prophecy of Hprlng, If ita eyea readi
the hope pictured tn the opening of the^
first peach blooms.
The firat mail of the morning brought
a double valentine from Merchant-
farmer G A Still of Hlackville, a sub
stantial subscription check that meant
justice and cleverness, and as well
worded an advertisement as tells of
careful achievement and well deserved
realization of agricultural progress and
prosperity as any newspaper in Amerl
ca contains. No agricultural school
could give a better diploma than that
told In the development and Improve
ment of the Htill Buperior Cotton Seed
Next came Mr. D. I*. Key of Meyer’s
Mill, bearer of double valentines also,
for he ia and has beet, for a long while
a subscriber who has taken two copies
of Tua RgorLB. one for the home, the
other for a well belaved kinsman In
this hustling commercial time his life
example Is WWe the whNper of peace in
the charge of the battle line. Years
ago he realized that there are better
things in life than money getting, so
lessened hi* agricultural operations,
enlarged his happiness, bettered healih
and found time for the faithful aud joy
giving performance of every duty to
church.and State, home and friend*
and $ richer prosperity came to till full
the place of the demands of larger ef
fort*.
A good messenger brought from Mr.
II. C . Mitchell of Elko his annual val*
entlne, a silver TTniog to the wintry
cloud, an assurance of act more sincere
and convincing than words ef praise
that The People Is e friend always
welcome in hi* home, as it is aiway*
glad to go to that garden spot of to
many and such good people.
Then came a chapter of coincidence.
Messrs. George W. Bodlford and B. F.
Peeples, good son* of good fathers, now
with the Immortals, eatne together to
tha county saat and a* they walked
near the «un dial the coincident thought
came to them that it wa* time to sec
The People and they governed them
selves accordingly. And then e*me
the spontaneous coincidence of equal
deed and even good word and happy
amile that remained, and yet remHln*,
a consoling memory tbat caunot fade.
From the West side came Mr. L W.
Hill, pulsing with intelligent thought
and busy with an energy that wins
• uccess by dtserving it. and of whom
we shall feel prouder and have more to
aay when the rectification of the Aiken
line shall bring all hi* po*«e*»len* and
ambitions back into the mother county.
Ripe in the three score and ten and
three year* of u*.fii|nrs« and upright
life and convincing example, Mr.
George W. Morris paid u* the annua)
vi*lt that c<>me» to u« with the helping
iofiuenc# of an upl fling nermon, for
all me long pilgrimage that a kindly
Providence ha* allowed U> film show*
bow true to theold faith* he ha« walked
and how in the record* of tbat life
there I* no blot of wrong deed, no echo
of harmful word, no haunting thought
of tiad example to th<>ae that have loved
and trusted him and «till keep him aafe
and aecure In their loving heart* May
the coming year* rest lightly on hia
good gray head,
“You are welcome, I have had value
receiv ed," w a* the good greeting of
Mr R. A All of l lmera a* he met n*
a* the week drew near It* ending *un
set and he hurried the transaction of
hi* husinea* that lie ought eatch hi*
home going train And the few word*
that he spoke to ua and the kind v

And other friend* added to our hap

A SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT.
Friday evening, February 10th, will
be long remembered by those wtio at
tended the entertainment given at the
Ulmer school building on that date
Thla hazaar and carnival wa* given for
the benefit of tha Shady Grove School,
but owing to the lack of room at their
building the trustee* of the Ulmer
School kindly consented to the loan of
their building for the occasion.
Quite a nice sura wa* realized from
the different source#, .which will he

Allendale, S. O.. R. F. D. No. 1,
February 20. 1211.
Editor Barnwell pEori.a:
Ploa*e allow u* space to expre** our
deep, heartfelt thanks to the manv
kind friend* that came to our home and
assiated in all that could he done in the
awful, trying time of the recent tragic
death of our youngest son, II R Box
We wish to say ‘ God b e** one and
all,” and we pray that none w HI ever
have to go through What we are Dow
•offering.
The New* and Courier and ThqHtate
both published that our dear boy! com
mitted auicide, but we, hi* loved, one*,
can but believe that it wa* an accident,
as we knew of no cause that would or
could cause film to wish to do such a
thing. And wo wish also to expreaa
our thank* to you, the editor of The
People, and to the Allendale Herald
for the kind and sympathetic way you
both chronicled hi* death. You did
what we think all newspaper people*
ought to do. published only what you
knew of the facta. The other paper*
published what we all, hia 'own lAVed
one*, who were with him 1u«t before
and after the awful death, don’t know,
that he killed himself With a shot gun
Intentionally, which too many that
were with ua to mention know w as un
true, but we pray God to forgive and
bleat you, one and all.

In Itia campaign for the Governor
ship he had p edged himself to au eon

augurai addrea* he had urged the Gen

humiliation would follow and disaster
be the result. The few men controdlng
the entire money interest may throw a
panic on the country at any moment.
The income of the Slate a* OHiimated

A* a separate tiallot had to be tak< n

The House «E*tained the Governor’*

passed over bi* veto item* amounting
to about $65,000.
Tne Senate was more economical and
pgaaed over the veto four sections ap

Upon John Ruikln’* writing desk
A alab of chalcedony lay,
And on it, cm lu careful script,
The word ‘Today
Honored of all, a wondrous man.
And held a prophet In bi* wav,

And n*ed ’Today.” . - ,

How good to write the aelf-aame

Futtlng ”tomorrow’*” ate* by
The ward ‘‘Today.”
