WILL BUILD AT j
MYRTLE BEACH
]
Methodist Institutional Church to be
Erected and Work Begins
In Fortnight.
For more than a year the Methodists
have been developing a plan for
an institutional church at Myrtle
Beach. They have in mind a structure
that will adequately meet the
needs of*, that popular' *>nd growing
resort. Ftn/illy the iniTial work is to ,
begin and is hoped-that the first
section of the building can be completed
wlthhy sixty days.
The Method^!# to receive in
this enterpifaseA^e^mpport of the various
boar<#w*or the church extension
board, mission board, Sunday School
board and education board. The work
to be carried out in this plant is directly
i*el,ated to the inteiests fostered
by all these boards.
Already one of the training schools
of the South Carolina Conference Sunday
School Board is situated at Myrtle
Beach. This school has done well in
spite of the lack of facdnias which
the new plant will amply supply.
More than a year ago the Myrtle
Beach Farm Comtmwy deeded 1o the
Methodist Church ti jkplendii site for
this institutional pldjnt ana in addition
assured liberal as.JiVaneo.
The Methodists/ire ^n'lU'SVistic over
the actual beginning" of Ihe plant and,
of course, of,its future service .is a
home to all re'krious bodies an 1 gatherings
at heoutiful Myrtle Beach.

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. Epps were successful

THE HORRY HERALD, COI
LIFE GOES OUT I
AS HOUSE BURNS!
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.

ADULT SCHOOL NOTES '
S
Hickory Grove
Hickory Grove reports an excellent
night school. One oC the most en- p
thusiastic pupils is H. F. Hardee, an (l
ex-Confederate soldier. Enrolled in
the school are two of his sons and c
two grandsons. If every family fc
would support the night school work t
as they are doing, Horry county >s
would soon be one of the foremost t
counties in the stat^, ,?oj:. education s
means progress. . .bmdjinU VT
Mt. Olive ., t 51
The Mt. Olive Night School continues
to grow. There are now en- (|
rolled thirty pupils. The pupils are y
not only getting information from ^
their work but much pleasure, for c
each night a few minutes are given to ^
singing which is enjoyed by all. The v
advanced class is finding work in t
fractions most interesting and profit- ;1
able. I>. M. Causey, one of the trus- *{
toes, tells an interesting story of one
of the pupils. The other day Mr. \
Causey wont with I. S. Causey to ^
nvike some business arrangements and ,,
when the time came to sign names, j.
1). M. Causey, although an educated
man said that he was ashamed of his
sip,-nature, for 1. S. Causey wrote his (1
name so much better and he had just ^
learned how in the night school. ^

onstrated how well a man can learn ;
to write his name in i< short time :
when on l.nst Saturday lie wrote his i
name on the blackboard in such a
plain hand that he would have put
many men of far better advantage to <
shame.
Evergreen
Mr. Clardy reports a good cl ?ss at
Evergreen interested in studying
arithmetic. In that community there
/ire practically no persons who cannot
read and write, but they are showing
their progressive spirit by taking
advantage of an opportunity to add
to their store of knowledge.

The trustees and tacher at Enterprise
report a good night school in
their district.

The niufr^JffchOOb at Xoris is progressing
* nicely. nW ^ teaching is
lone by Mrs. M. J. Bullock, assisted
?y Miss Fronis Watson. The people
?f the town are assisting in the work I
>y sometimes going out into the counry
and bringing in the pupils, for
everal women walk about two miles
0 school. This type of community
mpport will help make the work a
teal success. The pupils of this class
lift* making rapid progress and before
)ie term is out thcv will be able to
lo independent work. One mother
' is attended notwithstanding the fact
hat she is suffering from a bone fel>11.
It is touching to see how earnest
he mothers are in school, for they
vish so to learn so that they can help
heir children. In this class there is
1 mother and son. On Wednesday
tight the class had several visitors,
i?rong them P. D. Harrelson, M. J.*

meeting.; ever held in Con-,
vav assembled hi <he courthouse for,
iie purpose of discussing the "write-!
. ouv-narr.e" cvmpaign. Mr. Hal Buck
welcomed the visitors most appropriately.
Th.e program was most ineresting,
for the fr -t hour was given

with the progress which hctdwiS-m
made and teachers wore encoiii^vd
to push vigorously the campaign!^
Three excellent talks were made oy
). A. Spivey, Marion Wright and II.
K. Cook. 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.
These addresses were followed by a
general discussion of school conditions

After the meeting adjourned the 3
visitors were beautifully entertained 9
in the town hall by the Conway Civic
League. As they entered the door jw I
they were made to feel at home by I
a hospitable reception committee con- I
sisting of Mrs. Marion Wright, presi- ] I
dent of the league; Mrs. W. A. Free- * M
man and Mrs. B. E. Sessions. They < \ ^
were taken immediately to the tables, v
presided over by Mrs. A. W. Barret, ? ' 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? ? Kv -vour-n;imi'" Camnniirn
All the schools of the county are
busy getting ready for the educational
meetings to he held in every school
on FridHy night. The community
that does not now make an effort to
have every person in district taught
to write nr. r.e will he losii.g an opportunity
