Walterboro, S. C. Picnic At Cottageville. The picnic given last Friday by the Woodmen of the World at Cottage ville, a dinner was spread and the occaesion thoroughly enjoyed by all. The local camp is in a very flour ishing condition and an effort is be ing made to spread its influence in the community—hence this picnic. Appropriate and able addresses were made bn this occassion by Prof. Hugo Sheridan, of Bamberg, and Capt. E.L. Fishburne, of Walter boro. In the afternoon an attempt was made to play oaae ball, which resulted, after two and one-half innings, in a score of 16 for Cot tageville and Zero for Providence. Ite Providence team became offend ed at a ruling of thp umpire and at this stage broke loose from th The people ol noted for their as exemplified satisfaction at the large crowd pres ent Large Crowd present Good 1 Dinner, Speeches, Sparking and Jollity m « One of the largest picnics held in a long time in this county, and one of the most enjoyable, was that held Friday at Bethel. That is an ideal place for holding a picnic. Large stately o:tk«, and walks, and a large church tor the singing and speak ing. with a good well of water to que*jch the thirst on a hot picnic day, and Friday was a hot picnic day all right. And then the people! This community is noted for the hospitality of its people. They are all good livers, and if there iaany one in want in that whole section it was not evidenced in the dinner prepared. The - fifteen hundred people present could have been fed several times with the dinner that was spread on the long tables. No one went a a ay hungry unless they so desired, lor the invitation was g< neral and genuine. Nothing hap pened to mar the enjoyment of the day. If there were any spirits present they must have been the spirits of the sainted dead that sleep in the cemetery hat'd by the church, a cemetery where lie buried the loved of many years. This was a Sunday school picnic. Rev. T. 1'. Burgess is the pastor in charge of the circuit of which Bethel is a part, and holds services here twice a month. He told your cor respondent that he has :150 members at this church and that the average attendance is about 300 at the regu lar services. There are few churches in the county that can beat this recovd, we are sure. The Sunday school is keeping up with the church. Its superintendent J. D. Hudson, has been continuously superinten dent for twenty-seven yeras! If there is such another record in the county we know not of if Mr Hud son is not entirely alone in this good work and long record. Laboring along with hin>,are Messrs. H. C. Breland, E. H. Ulmer ("Uncle Nick", J. S. Crosby, D. B. Breland and others who have not been in service so long, hut who are none the less faithful, conscrated workers, such as Miss Cora Burgess, Travis Givens, Willie Bryan and others. Miss Minnie Broan is the organist, while "Uncle Nick” leads in the singing. The speakers were happily intro duced by Rev. Burgess, and made appropriate addresses. "A Succes- ful Sunday School Teacher" Was the subject of a carefully prepared paper by Travis Givens. He was followed by Dr. H. W. Black of Walterboro, who with his jokes kept the audience in a good humor and incidentally drove home some good points. Prof. Hugo S. Strickland followed in an address in which he emphasized the importance of earnest prayer in the preparation and teaching of Sunday school lea- sons. M. P. Howell, Esq, followed in an able and eloquent address. He cited some of the things that pre vent the development of true man hood and womanhood, paying a pret ty tribute to ..oman. Men should be honest, industrious and generous and the lack of these virtues unmake manhood. The last speaker was W‘ W. Smonk, Jr., who spoke on Prohibition. He showed why men and women should join hftnds in try ing to drive out the curse of strong drink. On account of the lateness and heat, Mr Smoak c^t nia remarks short. The benediction was pro nounced and the audience repaired to the school house where iced lemonade was dispensed, after which dinner was served. The crowd then soon began to disperse, with the verdict that the day was a perfect success. Visitor. SALE.
