Dear Mr Editor.— I know that the people of our county would like to hear again from the garden spot 'of the county, so please let me have only a small space, and I will give them a few dots. v One of the most important'is our Sunday schools. One at the Baptist church every Sunday morning, with good workers and a faithful supt., Prof A C Hiers, the other at the school house led by Rev P C Garris. This one should be specially commended. Counting the fie— we have the moat regular and most prompt attendance of any school in the state. I know no <*>ther way by which the young people of a community may be judged them by the way they attend and behave them selves at Sunday school. This behtg true it would be hard to find a better class of young people than thoee of Smoaks Our crops are fine considering the cold April. I heard a man say today that the good Lord did not want some of the people of Smoaks to get a head thoee who could not get their phosphate in time to plant in the warm days of March, so he sent the cold to kill the crops of those who had gotten their phosphate. Now we are all in abreast and we intend to keep the wheel turning until about the 4th of July then* we will say: “Roll back, time, roll back for we had rather plow in July than pull fodder.” Our college boys and girls keep coming in as the schools close. A C Padgett of Wofford come home Saturday. B L Padgett has gone to Columbia to stand the State Board exammation We hope that all our young doctrs of S C will have good luck on their examination.
