LARGE CROWD VISITS CONWAY Conway had a crowd of people hero last Monday. It was the occasion of the county convention, a'so the fact that it was lejr.il salesday. A number of tracts of land were disposed of in front of the courthouse. The lots of land composing the !a" e residence of \V. R. Lewis, were resold under foreclosure of mortj^ajre against K. L. YVestburv. The vacant lots were purchased by Mrs. \V. B. Chestnut and the old home l?>t by Mrs. A. B. Lundy. The prices of this property did not run as high as it did in tiie war time, when it was first sold. Westbury had to buy it in at the osteite sale for while at this sale oil last Monday it did not bring: a total of half that amount. Two tracts belonging to W. D. Lawrimorc were sold under executions and were bid in by creditors. Several other tracts in the country were sold under foreclosure orders and went mostly to those who held the mortgages. The prices realized for this were very low. o REI'OKT OF WOMEN'S C LUBS Since the meeting of the state federation in April( J921, the Conway Civic League has completed a handsome playground equipment of nine pieces on the Burroughs school grounds costing $201.36. The conconstant use of each piece more than repays the league for the cost. The work of the past winter has been almost entirely that of the child welfare department. At the October meeting the league received a suggestion which was enthusiastically adopted that it have a certain amount of milk served the primary depart ment daily. A competent committee, with Mrs. McQueen Quattlebaum as chairman got to work at once. Miss Fenton of the state department of health came to Conway and weighed and measured every child at the Burroughs high school, school-room weight charts were obtained .and much interest aroused in keeping: up the normal physical standard. Arrangements were made with the dairyman and since the first of January every child in the primary department has received daily a half pint of milk. Through the elTorts of the primary teacher, Miss Watson, a spirit of rivalry is maintained between the grades in the amount of milk money collected weekly. The bill is generally $20 to $25 more than the amount taken in. Of course the league has been busy keeping reserve funds on hand for this purpose. To this end the play, "Sand," was recently given with great success. The city beautiful committee has recently held a plant oxcb.mp'o to stimulate the planting of flowers. This committee received from our Congressman a number of shrubs which were planted in fhr> Main street park. It is now working wiHi the chairman of the county commissioners to beautify the county courthouse grou nds. The league has given $10 to the student loan fund and $5 to the endowment fund. The legislative work during the past year was the request that the county delegation secure an appropriation for the continuance of county demonstration work. This was successfully done through a committee meeting; with the delegation. It has recently been the league's privilege to give Miss Wil Lou Gray some assistance in her illiteracy work in Horry county by serving refreshments to about two hundred teachers, pupils and trusteees. APPRECIATION EXPRESSED 1 wish, by the kindness of the press, to express to .ill concerned my fullest appreciation for the whole-hearted entertainment of the district and Sunday school conference. Your noblr response made the conference a thing of pleasure from .'-tart to finish. A? memory, on the part of tho more than one hundred and fifty delegates, reverts back to Conway and the conference, it will ever provoke a kinc word and give Conway ;i good name "A good name is rather to be chosci than great riches, and loving favoi rather than silver and gold.-' I wish to thank the committee 01 entertainment, tho committee on as signment, those who opened theii homes for delegates, those who would but could not; the respective depart ments in the Sunday school whicl had numbers on 'he conference pro gram, Mr. Stilley for his boat, ,*in< others too numerous to mention, fo the use of cars and other service.

EXPERT GRADES ASSURED WEED R^'ont announcement of the appointment of J. H. Dixon of Mullins, S. C.. as supervising trailer of tlie loaf department of the Tobacco Growers' Co-operative Association in South Carolina assures the organized growers of this st/itee the services of one of the outtstanding tobacco men of the South in\Jthe grading1 of their tobacco this fall. With a long record of successful service in handling tbe leaf, Mr. Pixon has had ten years in the warehouse business at Mullins, formerly working with the Export Leaf Tobacro Company and' later with Reynolds, Mr. Dixon has bought tobacco for one or more se.asons at Louisburg, N. C., Roxboro, N. C., South Boston, and Danville, Va. The successful jrrudiiifi: of more than fifty million pounds of tobacco liv the Kentucky Burley Growers' Association which has unquestionably been an important factor in bringing them higher prices than the unorganized growers of Kentucky have received upon the j>pen market this year seems certain to be repeated with graders of such .ability as Mr. Dixon and the experienced tobacco men who will handle a majority of this year's crop for the Tobacco Growers' Co-operative Association in the Carolinas and Virginia.

CON 1 SHIFTERS ARE PUT UNDER B AN s Spartanburg.?The new secret society known as "the Shifters," which has swept over the country during: the past few months, was given the t.iboo in the city high school Friday. The society, which has had a run particularly among youths and girls of the flapper age. has attracted a good deal of attention. It has grips and pass-words, and a #Updge by which members make themselves known to each other. According to the initiated. one wearing the badge of the "Shifters" is always ready to open conversation with anyone who has the pass-word, even though a rank st ranger. Teachers in the city schools several d.ays ago noticed that a number the pupils were wearing the badge of the society and began an investigation. The teachers quickly decided that such a society was not conducive to good school discipline, if nothing worse could he said for it. The various teachers called the pupils together in the classrooms and gave them a talk on the subject. The pupils were told that the custom of the society in inviting promiscuous actiuaintanceship from any and everybody wearing the badge would lead to embarrassing things. Many a girl wearing such a badge mifrlil" ho hv m. vftlith or nui" / .and subjected to embarrassment, if \ not open insult. Such a practice, the | pupils were told, was not in kenning > with good morals, and was particu- i larly in conflict with Southern ideas i of chivalry and pood conduct. < The pupils readily saw the force of ; the argument, according to Dr. Frank Evans, superintendent, and there was } a speedy and wholesale renunciation | of membership in the new society. . W. H. HAND ON ! SHIFTER ORDER | The State) 1 W. H. Hand, superintendent of the I Columbia city schools, when asked 1 what lie thought of the Shifters' or- ( ganization said, "It is hard for me 1 to understand how any self-respecting 1 girl could entertain for one moment any idea of .associating or affiliating with such a movement. "If the girls had nothing to do with 1 the Shifters there would be no boys 1 in it. "Nor can 1 understand how any sensible parent would permit it. "Furthermore, I believe the Columbia boys and girls will take no stock in such a movement." o SI MMONS FOR RELIEF (Complaint not. served) State of South Carolina, county of Horry, in court of common pleas: Thomas W.

CAPPS It is pleasant indeed to be ,*ible to ' ay a pleasant word, conscientiously, or a good friend who has passed 1 iway. The life of William B. Capps, \ho was born near Jordanvilte in this ounty 33 years ago and died in Charleston three weeks ago should ?c a sort of inspiration to the great nass of poor boys of the far-out secions whose bad lortune has brought hem down through generations of noMjrre means and illiteracy. Deserting the hereditary'nature of u's lineage lie developed an ambition is a hoy to qualify himself for a linher life. So close was his attenion to books that when ouite a boy 10 began a most successful career *?s etcher in the rural schools of the oimty. After several years of teachn?r. and while his heart was still in ho cause of education, he was fomjelled to give it up for something nore remunerative. Six years ago 10 opposed the present popukir counv auditor for that office, but was doei'tod by a surprisingly close count. ,ater ho took a job counting boards or the Government at Porti Terminal, Charleston. Recognizing his ability, is though a phophet not in his own ountry, he went up from the board >ilo step by step until within two rears he held the most responsible portion of this port, that of property )fVicor, the custodian of Government n-operty, valued at millions. This office he still held when with a first symptom of pneumonia ho called his brother to his bedside and calmly announced to him, "I must go." He lirected plans for closing his affairs ind for the funeral, and so it was. Nature had dealt him more than a ?hare of fascinating manner and pleasing approach, always cheerful md interesting in conversation. He lad declined a very responsible post A'ith the Government in France. Also leclined a voluntary proposition bv ho new postmaster in Charlestton to >ocome his assistant. His home was the home of any Horry boy passing that way. He ? ' > l tUn nvafol'pnpp [rave 111 g nonie uu\f ~ a'herever a vacancy occurred wiihyhis jffice forcc. In fact, his position never turned his head or shook his itfection for his home people. About ten years ago Miss Maggie Dixon, an excellent lady of one of Ihe best families of Greenville, became his bride and is now the mother of twin boys and two daughters. A greater demonstiv.ition of genuine grief is seldom seen th.'in at this funeral, and especially marked in the case of his young widow, his aged r.o her and his twin brother. Every human heart goes out to those in full sympathy. His Friend, McG. * * vr -x- -x- -x- /.- -a- * -a- -:< :<- * * ->: # -x- -x- * -x- -x- ->* * IHORRY COUNTY! I TRUST CO. ! * * * * *|# *L. D.
