VALKNTINK PARTY One of the most delightful events of the season was a valentine party given by Mrs. M. A. Andersen last Tuesday evening at hoi' homo at (>S Laurel street, for her daughter, Eugenia. The house presented a most .attractive appearance. Rod valentines were hung everywhere and the valentine 'scheme was carried out throughout the evening. As the guests arrived a broken heart was given to each boy and girl and a lively time was enjoyed in matching hearts and in that way seeking his partner. A hunt for candy hearts began next. As the rooms of the lower floor were all thrown into one, much merriment was round in this contest. Miss Ernestine Little and Jack Burroughs were the lucky winners. As a variety the girls were told to shoot a bow and arrow into a hart and the boys wete given an apron to hem. Florence 1.. Epps, Frances Dusenbury, Hoyt Willinirts and Charles K.

The Weston Home at Plantersvil'e was consumed by fire at about 10:30 o'clock on Thursday ni^ht of last week and Miss Pauline Weston who, with her sisters, Misses Nonie, Annie and Lisa lived in the house, lost her life in .the flames. From what we can learn just before going: to press, the other three ladies escaped, except l|lmtj Miss Nonie was severely burned abo'ut the fact and hands. Their only brother, Francis W. Weston, is confined in a hospital in Charleston and it seems that no one other than those mentioned were in the house at the tine. I he1 origin of the fire is unknown, but'it is thought that the fire started from a defective flue. The home of the Westons was a fiv*ne dwelling, built of oldtime long leaf pine lumber, with shingle roof. It is probable that the fire, fanned by a strong wind, soon envoloped the building and Miss Pauline Weston was unable to find an outlet for escape. U is also surmised, because of her great age and failing health, that the shock may Jiave overcome her. rendering her helpless. It will lie recalled that the Westons lost their ancestral dwelling at Hasty Point some years ago by ire. The news of the catastrophy was brought to town early on Friday morning by Mr. Waddc'l, who st,'?fes that when he left Plantersville the Ore was still burning. Wadde1!, with B. P. Fraser, Jr., and perhaps others, hastened back to Plantersville to render all possible assistance. This is a terrible oceurrance and in common with all our.people, we <<;fer any assistance to thes=e afTlicted. in our power to give.?Georgetown Times. HOKKY v ?)

Each speaker was most individual in his renvirks, but each one stressed the need for every,man in the county assisting with the "writeyour-name" campaign now being put on in this county.

' 1 Miss Alma Carson, Miss Eunice Ulmer and Miss Jeness Cox, where delectable coffee and sandwiches were served. ' ' *i Maple On Satu Witty' night the teachers ] and pupils dT .tne Maple school were at home to frienus'af; |he schoolhouse. >]{ Visitors had been uol#arred from the night school, but at this time Miss Woodley told each pupil to invite one friend to co.nc to the schoolhouse for an evening of pleasure. A regular , urogram was given by the pupils. ; Papers were read by Sam Moore, Mrs. j, Sarah Anderson, Mrs. Glenn Thomp-, f son and Mi*-s Mollie Jordan. Henry Cnusev read the helpful poem, "Somebody Said It Couldn't Ho Done,'* while Dudley Tucket amused the aud- | ience with "A Wish." Miss Woodley entertained the visitors by giving a number of readings in clever mannov. This program was followed by a spelling imileh between the ' ight school pupils and th? visitors. - visitors won, i)ut nothing else could be expected since two teachers were on their ' , side. The nij.ht }?vho:>l pupils spelled * well and, finest of ail, demonstrated n sporty spirit by being willing to I try against such odds. Next time the i visitors had bettor beware. Cake and , coffee were served to seventy-five or i more. This task was mac'o an easy j one by the fact that the teachers told ! each pupil to bring cups to school inj stead of books on this night. | Maple The pupils of Maple are ardent 1 supporters of their school. One pupil, Troy Powell, has hired some one to work one the railroad this week in his place so that ho can be loft free to attend school. That is the type of spirit that makes some men forge j ahead. It is a pity that many other ! men in tho county will not now follow j in his steps. 4 i V? ?
