Ife*. •. rriassssassai— The Metropolitan Concert Club, eeoootly organized by energetic young men of Walterboro, will be quite n treat to the lovers of tansic in onr com mum ty. This club is composed of ten piece* of music. Prof Deddrich, of New York, is iD'tmctor, and we feel that in the near lirure that the dob will be mble to give concerts. According to recent reports the Tanners thronghont the county wil^ hardly make a half crop of cotton and the corn crop is off at least one third, tmnsed by the continued heavy rains. We understand that in eome sections that crops are damaged worn than in other sections. If the seaaone had been good this yr ar the farmera would have Imen in better circamstanoea this fail than they have been for many year*. The short crops will not only effect the fanners, but every business concern throughout the connty. The Colleton Connty Telephone Com* isuij has built s line to Getslnger. The line has also been built to Hitter, Hendersonville, and Oottageville. ▲ line will be built to Green Pond in the near future. This company has long distance connection throughout the United States. Two booths have been installed, ore at the Walterboro Drug -ikunpany . &:id one at Central Office. Hubechbers will get better service by using these booths when talking over the long distance. The company has been damn' »d oonnidarsMy br the re cent electric storms, bat ander the oir- i cuinstance*, the service given to sub- Hunbert is very good. The Heyward Riflemen will leave Walterboro next Friday morning for Chfckamaugt Park, Ga., where the :ird Regiment of South Carolina will be in camp for 10 days. Company “K”, is a part of the 8nl Regiment, and is made np of good men. Colleton should feel proud ci her soldiers, aa they have spared no time in making Company “K” one ot tne best drilled companies in the Srd Regiment. * Copt E. L. Fiahburue and Lieutenants E. D, Hyrne and I. M. Fisbbnrne have been true to the com pany and deserve honor for their untir ing efforts in the up-building of their company. - ♦♦a -■ - The summer school for teachers, which began July ifl^at Walterboro, is being largely attended by teachers thronghont the connty. But the attendance shonld be much larger. Every teacher in Oolleton County who expects to teach school this fall, should by all nutans, attend the summer school. The pur pose of the county summer school, as we uuderfc..vad it, Is to instruct the teachers in the method of school teach ing as well as taking a courts in the different branohee of study to be Taught in the tarioaa public schools of •oar connty. A teacher who takes charge of a school shonld be thoroughly com petent in order to give good penults as a M may be from overwork, bat the chances are its from an in active LIVER. — - With a well conducted LIVER one can do mountains of labor without fstiguc.
