The W. <>. W. Camp IJuvcil the
Monument to the I.ate G. K. Sea- r
siotiH in Presence of l a rare Gath- L
crinjr. With (beautiful and Im- j
pressivc Ceremonies ,
Last Sunday at the hour of 3:30
p. m., Lakeside cemetery was the )
scene of a beautiful ceremony, the .
Qccabiou being the unveiling of the
luLmumcnt erected by the Woodmen '
or the World to the memory of a de- '
parted brother, Mr George Robert 1
Sessions. The ceremonies was car-1'
ried out in the presence of a large 1
congregation of people, relatives and 1
friends of the deceased. 1
State manager W. L. Slaughter, 1
of York county and J. R. Drake of
Darlington, one of the best field 1
workers of the order, were present
and assisted. Mr Slaughter holds I
an important position in the order I
lie is a member of the legislature J1
from York county. His address de
livered at the monument was complimented
on all hides. 1'
The weather was very favorablel
for the occasion and the crowd in attendance
was as largo as was ever
seen hero at an event of this kind.
The procession fo-mcd at the
Masonic hall and marched to the
cemetery gates and was joined there
by tin; bereaved family. The cere |
moi y occupied about forty-live minutes.
Box Supper tit Cool Sprliijrs.
Mr. Editor:?Wo ask space through
your valuable columns to report our
box supper. As advertised through
your paper, we met at Cool Spring
about eight o'clock. The young and
old, married and single, and all
grades of nice cakes, and boxes were
coming in, while every young man
was wondering, whose box will I
get. At the time appointed a short
address of welcome was made by the
committee, after which Mr J G
Floyd sold lho boxes to the highest
bidder, some bringing two dollars
and seventy live cents, while none
sold for less than forty cents per
box. Soon the committee appointed
Miss Sallio Jones and Miss Annie
J\ I I Hill bl I UllUUM' il^i lli LliU M1U DUI/llC
class manner of the free schools.
And the cake was to be given to
the side that paid most for it. Just
here allow me to say that the cake
was a very nice one, having been
prepared by Miss Hattic Jones
J3oth sides were good workers and
soon ihe cake was bid over one
hundred dollars, and for good feelings
to both sides they compromise',
paying over $52.10 each, making a
total of $104 20 which the cake sold
for. The amount raised was near
$125.00 which seems as if the money
panic is over.
SVe congratulate the committee
Miss Hatue Jones and Miss Hattie
Shelly for the graceful manner in
which they conducted it. They
have been working hard for the new
buukling which has been started,
and we feel now that they have
accomplished their purpose. There
was quite a number of young ladies
frjm a distance who took part,
among those present were the Misses
Jones' and Barnhill, of Mullins, and
Miss Anna King, ofSocastec There
was not as many candidates present
as was expected, but Supervisor
Holt better keep a keen eye on Mr
Floyd. He's a vote winner.

Death of an Infant.
Hum ice infant of Mr and Mrs V
, ^JHarreteon, of Nichols, S. C., died
December 30th 1007, age about one
monfch and was buried at Antioch
Baptist church. She was the only
child, and viewed from an earthly
standpoint, it seemed so hard that
tho cruel monster, the rider on the
pale horse, should take away this
only rose of the garden, the jewel of
the home, but viewed from a heavenly
side, it is the Lord let hiin do what

His way are above our ways, and

The angel came that day

For reasons satisfactory to himself
and friends, Mr John Daniels has
i decided not to make the race for
I County Supervisor. In withdrawing
Mr Daniels gives up a brighl
prospect of winning out in the end.

A Comiiift Event of INotc.
Miss S.iba Doak, the "Nighten
gale of the South," as she has been
called, will give a vocal recital in
Conway on Wednesday evening,
** /I.'K otUOsv i.??
lTJifcy UliU, w II in: vimi'iiifj; mi |jai uiun,
Rev and Mrs A. S. Doak.
In view of her early appearance
here tlie following press notices of
her work will be of interest to her
friends:
(Bristol Herald, Bristol, Tenn )
"Miss Doak has a voice o' unusual
range and wonderful beauty, and
the numbers which she gave showed
a splendid adaptability of mood and
manner to the sentiment of the
songs which she sang. Miss Doak
gave two groups of songs which
were especially beautiful, and she is
perhaps at her best in such exquisitely
tender and pathetic melodies
as "Obstination" and ' Oh, that we
were maying." In manner Miss
Doak is charming and is not unlike
Adalina Patti in appearance, hav
ing the dark hair and eyes which belong
to the irmous Italian singer,
and an exce: ngly graceful and
gracious stage manner."
(At Durham, N. C )
"A very select and most appro
ciative audience greeted this young
southern vocalist in a song recital
at the Conservatory of Music last
evening. While the estimates formed
of her ability in advance, were
high, sno lar surpassed mo expectation
of thoso most interested in her
success here, and won for herself
the strongest encomiums from the
best judges of music in the city.
Apart from the superior endowments
and equipment, Miss Doak
possess most attractive personal
charms and her graceful stage presence
must instantly win the favor of
the audience."

It is possible that the hotel at
Myrtle Beach will be opened to entain
guests the coming season. In
fact it is whispered around that a
well known and successful hotel
keeper who resides not a thousand
fc miles from here has leased the hotel
. for the season.

f a eaniiing plant. bo;ng located at
r near Conway. A gentleman from
oincwhere else came to the cit\,
^as wined and dined, as it were, by
lie Conway Hoard of Trade, any
iow unusual countesies were extend
(I him by that body. Ho claimed
o have been the representative of ;
?n interest having both the expedience
in tlx1 business and the money
o carry out the plans and purposes
>f 1 lie interest ho represented. Af
or carefully going over the situation
ho expressed himself in subitance
as being favorably impressed
vitli t he outlook, the only drawback
is lie saw it was the scarcity of tin1
naterial to supply the plant after it
vas put in operation and he exact- a
h! assurances that enough truck |
tvould be raised to supply the do- s
liand of the plant. lie departed |
tvit.li this assurance, but from that
lay till the present one nothing has
jeen heard from him so far as the
Herald is informed.
In calling attention to this little
>v plav in the comedy of errors it is
iot the intention of the Herald to
ihrow cold water upon any part the
Hoard of Trade took in the matter.
LY> the contrary that body is deservng
of uustiniod praise as it is an
jvidence of its zeal in the promotion
>f enterprises having for their obloet
the upbuilding of town and
jountry and a commendable deternination
to neglect nothing which (
iromises to prove a factor in the \
maud scheme of the ilevelooment .
)f ourcomtnercial and industrial rc>onrocs.
The Herald is gl id that j
die Hoard of Trade proved itself ^
qual to the emergency uud did what L
t,hey did do so well and so promptly. ?
Hut, however, from the lesson we ^
:;an draw a wholesome moral, and ;
nne that would be to the interest
til both Conway and Horry to give |
heed to. We must depend largely *
upon our own exertions and capital .
for 'the development of our resources.
Wo must first give an earn ,
e->t of our faith in the future of j
Horry and show our confidence in
our claims that South Carolina is
the garden spot of the world and
Horry county is the garden spot of
South Carolina, by using our money
as well as our inllucnco in building
up some enterprise which appeals
the strongest to the judgment of
our people, There is no question
about necessary funds, neither is
there a doubt about the willingness
of the citizenship to act well their
part, but the trouble is that each one
waits on thoir neighbor tako the
lead There seems to be a want of
self reliance, a want of confidence
in one's self and the consequence is
that nothing much is being done
along the line of progress. Tt is
absolutely necessary for us if wo
hope to see new enterprises spring
up to go down into our own pockets
and help establish them.
We invite attention to the card of
Mr W J Hendricks announcing his
candidacy for County Supervisor:
Mr Hendricks is one of our most
prominent citizens and heretofore
has been faithful in discharge of his
public and private duties, and if
elected he will do his best to improve
the roads of the county.
The Masonic hall caught on (ire
last Saturday evening, evidently
from a spark from a passing railway
locomotive. Prompt action on
the part of the fire department saved
the duilding and perhaps a general
conflagration.
Many of the tax executions recently
issued aro being paid. It
seems that in some eases the parties
had overlooked their taxes or thoy
would have been paid promptly.
Notice to Overseer*.
All overseers are hereby requested
to have 1 days work put in on the
roads by the 10th day of May. Now
is the best time to work the roads.
I want each overseer to report by
the loth ol May by postal card 01
otherwise if the above time has been
put in, I see a good mr ^y side
ditches that have boon blocked by
light wood or log haulers. T strictly
request that or .,h overseer notify
parties who blocked the- drains U
have it immediately removed.
I am under many obligations tc
] each overseer who made the full re
IJ port last year. Hope we can mak(
1 more improvements this year.

am sorry we have not had such a

As to the duties, ipudilieations,
te , of a church clerk. I will asuro
Mr Raccoon by best rights, a

is being circulated throughout the
county to; the otfect that the said
committee had found a shortage of
$5,000.00 in tho Treasurer's office,

is entirely unfounded as we have not
