prostrate.
"I buried my face in the dirt. expecting
each minute to be the last.
For the life of me I couldn't say how ,
long the storm lasted. My anxiety
and fright were such that 1 was unable
to think. Then the storm passed.
Everything was quiet once more and
tho stillness seemed almost deathly
after the hubbub.

"What a sight greeted my eyes as
1 looked around. With the exception
of the kitchen and dining room, my
home was a complete wreck?literally
twisted into bits. As 1 looked upon
this heap of debris, I thought of what
would have happened to my wife and
children if they had been inside.

Ford car had been lit tod out
of the road and dropped over in the
field. Part of Mr. Meare.s* barn was
tfone. An apple tree in the field had
been uprooted. Over in the woods
whence the tornado had come, a well
defined path could be seen. The top-;
of pine trees had been snapped, oaks
bent and broken and branches stripped
of their foliage.
"John Floyd s house, just a little
way down the road, was a shapeless
pile of splintered timber. And from
it, I realized for the first time, came
pitious cries for help. It was John's
wife. 1 could tell her voice.
"By this time people began to collect.
Some of them came f^om the
big house and some of them came
from up the road. We all went to
Mrs. Floyd's help. Pretty soon another
woman's voice started up and
somebody said it was Mrs. Sam Jones,
sister-in-law to Mrs. Floyd.

They were badly bruised and about
crazy from fright.
"Mrs. Floyd began to scream:
'Where is my baby! Where is little
Francis! He was on the bed with
us.' We began to look for her little
four year old adopted sow, and before
long found him caught under
some timber. He was still and quiet
and we feared for the worst. Sure
enough the life had been crushed out
of him.
"We began to discuss the extent:
of the damage on the place. Levi filliott's
house was lifted unharmed off

HORRY COUNTY ]

The Horry County Sunday School ]
Association will hold its annual county
convention on Sunday, May 22,
1921, at the Waccamaw Presbyterian
Church. All Sunday Sv'.iool workers
md the public generally are cordially
invited to attend. There will be
morning and afternoon ? sessions and I
it is understood that a basket dinner
will be served on the grounds.
This promises ti> be one of the
best county conventions yet he'd
in the Independent Republic. Al- ,
though it has been gotten up en i.
rather short notice and the program ^
hastily arranged, we believe it wiP
be decidedly worth while for every j
Sunday School worker in the county t
and others interested in the work
to attend these meetings with the i,
hope of making better preparation ,
to do more efficient and effective ,
work in the Sunday Schools of the ^
county. The following is the pro- j

In the town of anywhere there
ives a number of charming yourg
ipinisters. There being only five j
digible bachelors in the nia"e?and
hese five determined to ronoa'n uu- j
ved?the spinisters see but little j
hance for them to overcome their I
lusbandless condition. At length
hey organized a club, for 11 sole
mrpose of devising, ways and meims
>y which they may secure mates
or their lonely hearts.
The performance open ^ with a
neeting of this band. Among the
nany schemes offered whereby they
nay secure husban is, is that of gating
them from various mail order
louses by means of trading stamps.
Jpon reading the descriptions of the
nen given as premiums with the \a-|
ious household articles quoted, however,
the hearts of the spinisters aie
saddened to find them but a bargain
counter lot and not a model
me among them. Realizing that the
indications are that they will be
orced to remain hanging on tiie
>arent stem t'or years to come, the
spinisters have grown very despondent,
when Madam Hyman Cupid appears
with an offer to secure luisxuuls
for the husbandless by means

the microbe of love, ller
services are accepted and plans laul
or the capture of those masculines
jelonging to the hated Bachlor's

The Bachelor's Club numbers six
>r eight determined young gentlenen
who have decided to maintain
heir liberty at all hazards. The
regular meeting of this club is not
levoid of interest, and the initiation
if the new member, Mr. Henpecks
Speech on "The Evils of Married
Life," and other occurrences serve to
make the assembly profitable as well
is entertaining.
The last scene is a garden party,
and where the hapless, hopeless,
lielpless bachelors become inoculated
with the awful germ of microbe of
love. The story of the wrecking of
this club, and its virtual kidnapping
of its members is too sad for expression.
Since the microbe has immediate
effect and the bachelors fall

Hut Class Will Be Host to the
Men's Sunday School Classes
of the Town.
Those who survive the hall game
between the Hut and Annex Classes, j
which is briefly referred to in another
column of this issue, will repair
at once to Hardee's I'Vn v whore the !
Hut Class will be host to tho Annex
class and the Men's class of the Pres
byterian Church, in addition to al!
the male officers of the throe Sunday,
Schools of the town. It is expected 1
that the service of the barbecue will
begin around six o'clock and continue (
well on toward mid-night.
Down around Bucksport, where tho
bull frog bellows at the moon and the
katydid hums her croning monotone
to the silent stars, a dozen or so fat
shoats are spending their last days
under the care and guardianship of
Mr. Don Richardson. On Thursdav
they will, as Shakespeare so well
says, " be butchered to make a lloman
holiday." And on Friday they
will go the way of alll pork flesh,
accompanied by bread, Irish potato
salad, pickles and possibly berbecucumbers.
On top of all of this rumors
has it that cake will be spread
around for those who still hfivo anv
rhinks and crevices which need fillin*?.
The committee of the Hut Class
having charge of the barbecue states
that admission will be by ticket,
which said ticket will, however, cost
nothing. These will be issued to the
presidents of each of the throe classes
and distributed among the members
and male officers of the Sunday
Schools. Each class is supposed
to furnish cars to convey its
members to Hardee's Ferry. Cars
will leave the Court House grounds
as soon as Umpire Anderson, or his
successor in office, shall declare the
ball frame at an end.
Each man is expected to bring
his own knife and fork, the ladies
of the town not being willing to
trust these implements into the care
and keepinp; of the Class officers.
One lady stated that after the last
barbecue two or three inches had
been bitten off of several of her
knives. As soon as these instruments
have done their duty pieces
of paper will be passed around so
that each man can wrap his knife
and fork up and bring it home again
in his pocket.
Many of the stores and offices cf
the Town will be closed in time to
permit bosses and clerks to attend
tlm barbecue. The Conway Lumber
Company will close down its
plant, so that the lumber fraternity
may be well represented.
