SPLENDID MEETING AT
JOYCE HUNCH CHURCH
The Barnwell Baptkt Association Waa
in Seamon Three Days.
The Barnwell Baptist Association met
with the Joyce Branch Baptist Church
on Tuesday, October 21, and remained
in session until Thursday evening.
Moderator J. B. Black took the chair on
the first day of the meeting and the
Rev. W. G. Britton was asked to act as
Clerk pro tem. '
The delegates from 31 churches were
enrolled and permanent organization
effected by the election of J. B. Black
as Moderator, R. R. Johnston, Vice-
Moderator, and J. A. Jenkins, Treas
urer.
The following visiting brethren were
recognized: J. C. Keys, of the Baptist
Courier; J. D. Huggins, representing
Furman University; Dr. Chapman, of
the Greenville Female College; V. I.
Masters, of the Home Mission Board;
W. J. Langston, of the State Board, and
W. J. Nelson, representing the Church
at Rock Hill.
The Association suffered somewhat
in regard to the lack of reports on va
rious subjects. However, those that
were presented were unusually good,
to the point and interesting. The con
gregations were large for the first two
days, but many delegates went home
and difl not stay the meeting out, which
is to be regretted.
The entertainment was more than
could have been expected. This cor
respondent cannot help thinking of the
good things on thst long table, and
when Joyce Branch invites the .Asso
ciation beck again, there will be an
enormous crowd to attend. W G. B.

Inspection Finished.
Adjutant (ieticral \V. W Moor< spent
the week-end with relative* and
friends in Barnwell. He has ished
the inspection of those companies of
the militia which were found deficient
at the spring examinations. Lieut Col.
David C. Shanks, who made the in
spections on the part of the Federal
Government, will file his report and
nothing will be known of the results
of the examination until after Col.
Shanks makes his report. Gen. Moore
made the inspections on behalf of the
State, but Col. Shanks will make ^he
report on the standing of the com
panies. There is keen interest among
the National Guards as to the resolts
of this examination.

fore the tomato clubs and
were thought of she had
school garden in connection with her
school at Cave station, where she
taught the children how to grow vege
tables and flowers.
Almost anybody living in that gen
eral neighborhood will tell a stranger
stories of how ‘‘Mis’ Dora Dee Walk
er” used to get up at her home in
Appleton at 5 o’clock, feed her chick
ens, hitch up a wagon and drive ten
miles to school at Cave’s station, where
she wrestled with ‘‘Young America”
till the trees were throwing long
shadows as she drove back by her
truck farm, which embraces 125 acres
and works four teams. She manages
this herself.
She has been working for “Uncle
Sam” three years, in connection with
her school teaching, but this year
“Uncle Sam’s” work needed so much
attention that she had to ask the school
board to let her off fornix months.
In addition to generalizing the ranks
of the tomato girls, Mrs. Walker teach
es domestic science and looks alter
sanitation and things of that sort.
When seen at the fair grounds yes
terday, she was sitting at an impromp-
u desk made of a box,’ checking in-
umerable parcels of tomatoes and
anned goods sent in by her girls.
Oh, yes; I have' sbme tomato boys,
,” she said. “These are in town,
d are allowed 25 tomato plants
iece.” She could check off numbers
)ou. It we put up so
many tomatoes, we'll be rich enough
corn c h uust; f runi the farm-1
a two-acre l ‘ rs aI1 ^ °ther millionaires in the land!”
The tomato dub girls—at least some
of them—and their products have come
to be a kind of movable feast. On the
21st of November they will have to
show at the Barnwell fair.
And one wonders why some of these
stupid musical comedy companies have
not thought of having a tomato girl’s
chorus, with the girls dressed in puffy
red dresses, with green shoes and
stockings and wide collars with long
slim pointed green collars. *
Mrs. Walker says that if they have
time some of the girls serving at the
Barnwell booth will be arrayed in
some such manner, though they have
a regulation costume of white dresses
and caps. That is what they will wear
at the banquet to be given them by
The State at the Jefferson hotel next
week. ,
Mrs. Walker has arranged for a
great guessing contest at the Barnwell
fair, in which her girls will take part,
and all the answers will involve the
word “can.”
Chickens, Too.
The tomato girls’ club of Barnwell
county, which is affiliated with the
girls’ canning and poultry club, is the
only county where the organization
has been perfected to the degree that
is wished for by the general organizer
of the entire movement. Miss Edith L.
Parrott. Mrs. Dora Dee Walker, who
J P. Moseley and sons,
Jake and J. P. Jr., of lRangeburg, were
the guests of Mrs. Isadore Brown sev
eral days this week.
Messrs. J. and L. Cohen and Misses
Nannie and Carrie Cohen and Anna
Harris, of Barnwell, spent Sunday with
Mr. and Mrs. Isadore Brown.
Mrs. William Nightingale and sons, of
Brunspick, Ga., have returned to their
home after spending a while here with
Mr. and Mrs. Herman Brown.
Messrs. S. B. Rich, of Orangeburg,
and Herbert Wald, of New York, were
guests of Mrs. I Rich last Sunday.

Tobin’s Millinery Emporium Offering
Exceptional Bargains.
Readers of The People will find a
half page of exceptional bargains this
week, that are being offered by Tobin’a
Millinery Emporium. The limited space
prevented a full enumeration of the
many articles on which the prices have
been reduced, but when it is stated
that this concern’s $15,000 stock is to
be sold at a big reduction from the
regular prices, bargain-hunters should
“sit up and take notice.”
Turn to the advertisement and see
if there isn’t something listed that you
need.
