MEGGETTS NEWS NOTES.
To The Press and Standard: It
seems as tho’ our correspendant
from Meggett has completely gone | Lanpdale Dora Lea
out of existance, and now too is a , ® ’
very good time of the year, as every- ancl
thing seems to be getting back to
the old festive way: but am sorry to
say that the farmers all look pretty
blue, over their dear little cabbage,
which seems to be badly hurt by the
cold wave.
Quite a number of the folks around
enjoyed a 1 "surprise party" at the
home of Mr and Mrs Carlton, on
the evening of Feb. 2nd. Several
interesting games were played such
as pinning on the "donkeys,” "snake
in the grass” etc. Quite a dainty
supper was served at about half
after ten o’clock, but the crowd was
not willing to return to their homes
until the small hours, thus proving
that it was thoroughly enjoyed.
The latest "sport” for the young
ladies of this section seems to be
horse-back riding and boatrowing;
Well 1 dare say its good exercise
any way. And they all seem to en
joy it too.
11Miss Claude Wilkinson entertained
a number of friends at her beautiful
home on Toogoodoo on Friday even
ing at an oyster roast a very enjoya-
bale time was spent and the memory
of it will certainly be a pleasant re
collection to all who attended.
Quite an original idea was display
ed in hiding the prizes in pretty lit
tle clumps of bushes out doors, and j
letting the guests search for them.
The names of the lucky ones may be
mentioned as follows; Misses Claude
Wilkinson and Liz Behling, and Mess
Allston and Ellis of Adams Run.
- We were pleased to see Dick Pren
tiss of Charleston at the party.
Misses Carr and Baldwin of
Orangeburg, are the guests of Mrs
Carr of Meggett.
Miss Hillie Behling spent part of
last week pleasantly with Mrs But
ler of Ethel.

While it is raining I will write
you a few dots.
Tiger school No. 2, which
was taught by Miss Della Lan-
gdale, closed yesterday. Miss
Langdale was a noble teacher
and she did her duty well, and
it was with great regret that
we saw her leave for only a
few months before her return,
but we hope that time will
soon fly.
Miss Ida Beach was the
guest of her sister. Mrs Jake
Linder on last Sunday.
Miss Lilia Beach visited her
sister last Sunday.
G R E Linder is very ill and
we are sorry to say that there
is very little improvement. His
children and neighbors give
him all the attention needed.
Mrs Louje Beach is spend
ing sometime with her parents,
Mr and Mrs L A Linder.
Miss Esther Linder called

yesterday.
Mr Arthur Beach has re

will stay for a while, we hope
for his return soon.
Miss Della Langdale and
Mrs Dollie Linder paid Tabor

Is bard to
measure the
effects of any
man's work and
example. With
one who becomes
known to all
lands and all
time It would be
almost as easy
to measure the
effect* of the
sunshine or tbe
rain. Tbe least
of the Influence
exerted by such
a soul is that
which is tnngl
ble and known
The causes set
iu motion by bis
acts, his wonts
and bis example
are so widely
ramifying that
i.iNcot.N dknocncino they cannot be
the cold HUAJUiKUS. traced. If these
are true and durable they go on for
ever. They win and shape uneoti
sclously. They are seed* blown about
tbe earth, and every heart Is a reeeji-
tlve soil Into which they may fall. In
this view the result* of Lincoln's life,
toil and faith have only begun. They
will furnish a light for men's feet and
will lead them to liberty, truth and
mercy so long as America 1* a nation
or there Is a republic upon tbe earth.
That Lincoln preserved the L’nion
and freed the slave is much. That be
showed us wbat American manhood
can be. that be gave us an ever) day
Illustration of democracy, that be
taught us charity and forgiveness, that
he proved to us over and over again
that nothing is durable but truth, that
be revealed to us bow a high soul can
overcome poverty aud that he held be
fore us tbe white example of a blame
less life are more.
Fortunate is the land which has such
a man for Its pairon saint. Ills life
becomes an Inspiration for tbe young,
bit precepts a guide for tbe old. He
has marked out new moral |»ath* and
pointed the way to new individual and
social heights. Because be went
through tbe wilderness of trial aud
temptation ami turned not aside we
can better find our way. Because he
was so gentle, so honest, so true a!Td
so friendly In all the relations of life
we can all be gentler and truer, more
honest and more friendly than we
should have been without his helpful
example.
America Is Just beginning to know
Lincoln. She has yet t<x learn tbe reel
depth of his political philosophy, bis
unwavering confidence la the triumph
of right, his contempt of money end
all that money can buy, his divine
faith in the maases of men, the an-
selfishness of his motives end, last end
highest of all, his supreme spiritual
quality. Thor* aro enough leeoona in
Lincoln to afford profitable study for
a century. If any man can go to
lift and not get qjer
prig or ah aristocrat.
It will he bocaaae the pupil baa not
braina to comprehend wbat
tho master la trying to toach.
Already H Is safe to say that no
American has been se Illustrious sine*
Washington. Concerning non# has so
much been written, nor has wbat has
been written bee* so eagerly read.
This Interest has grown up spontane
ously from the people themselves. That
Is tbe bounty of it. There Is nothing
forced nor nrtlflcinl In his fame. „
When certain bunkers of New York
tried t% corner the Km»pl>y>f'fol<flllfr-
ing tbe wlw, Lincoln rather heatedly
said of them that they, ought to have
their “Infernal heads shot off.” He
altered otbei* opinions In kind. About
the only really biting things tho Naza-
reue e»er said concerned the “scribes,
Pharisees and hypocrites." and In tbe
same way the most caustic of Lincoln’s
remarks related to tbe money changers
and other like gentry who are the
modem counterparts of those denounc
ed by the Master. Lincoln bad enough
real Insight to s«*e just who are the
worst enemies of the human race.
No. It Is not from these that the phe
nomenal growth of Lincoln sentiment
has come. It Is from the tollers In the
fields, the shops and the mines, from
tbe lowly race he freed, from the sol
diers he befriended, from the young to
whom be gave Inspiration, from the
average man and average woman, who
felt In him a brother and a friend.
One of the manifestations of tbe Lin
coln wave that has swept the country
has been seen In tbe celebration of bis
birthday. Tbls was by no means gen
eral at first, bat was spontaneously
taken up by societies and soldier*’
poatssfinally by states aiidf a’few years
since was ma'de a holiday by the na
tional government. It has now culmi
nated ta making his birthplace a shrln*
and kla centenary s worldwide cele
bration.
As America grows more democratic,
as all forms of slavery disappear, as
genuine manhood and womanhood are
more highly prised, as forms are abaa-
doned and spirituality becomes mani
fest, as mercy, charity nod brotherhood
are enthroned, as the plslfi people come
to thsir own and as men grow tn tbelr
tor* of truth, of righteousness, and of
