About four years ago Dr. Breeland^ accidentally fell, breaking his hip, and was nfined to his bed from that time until his death. He was,, a very patient sufferer, but being 88 years cf age he was never .able to recover. He is survived by two children: Thi-lma Brookcr, who has boon •pending -ome time with relatives at Denmark, is home again very much to the delight of her many gift and boy ti ierds. Frank Kirkland reports that he will attend the Sewanee Military Academy in Tennessee during the next school session. We will miss Frank so much, however, we know he will make good marks wherever he goes. Caro Easterling is visiting friends in Augusta, Ga., wher^ she will spend sevenrf weeks, and we know she will have a good time. Mr. P. M. Buckingham very kindly donated to the Barnwell High School his pay during his term on the County School Board,. for a library. This will be supplemented by a fund from the county and State, and from this start, the school hopes to have a com plete library for the use of the children in the near future, which is very much needed. ^ Thanks to Mr. Buckingham.

The county board of directors, con sisting - thus of three members from each township and ward, shall elect a president, a vice president, a secre tary and an executive committee, con sisting of the president, the vice pres ident, and five members of the board *of directors, of the State association. All county associations are branches cf the state association. The state organization will consist of a board of directors, composed of three members from each cotton pro ducting county of the State. The board of directors is charged with the duty of naming a president, a first vice president and seven other members of the board of directors. Objects of Amtociation.

Has Accomplished Much. The American Cotton Association has accomplished much without or ganization. The statement has been made on the floor of the United States Senate that the association has already saved the South 8500,000,000. But for it cotton would today be bringing ten of fifteen cents, it is declared. Offi cials of the association say that with a permanent organization it will be able to revolutionise things in the South- percentage of its members present will be awarded a banner.
