MARION HAVING BIG GATHERING Local Methodist Preachers Gone Over to Attend It DISTINGUISHED VISITORS Sub-Postoffice Being Operated at The Church by Bonded Employee The Methodist conference for this section of South Carolina is being held in Marion, S. C., this week. All ot the preachers ot this county, so far as The Herald could learn, and some others who are interested in the gathering, left here to be in Marion at the opening of the conference on November 28th. Various committees have been busily engaged for several weeks in planning for the entertainment of the distinguished men who are the guests of the people of Marion, and as the day of *'*e convening of the conference approached the announcement was made "Marion is ready." The conference has with it two gi*eat churchmen, Bishop Collins Denny. and U. V. W. Darlington. No men stand higher in religious circles. Many noted ministers are among those in attendance. Among them are such as: Dr. R. E. Stackhouse, Dr. John O. Willson, Dr. J. W. Daniel. J. H Graves, Walter I. Herbert, M. W. Hook. T E. Morris, E. O. Watson, and others, all dear to the hearts of Marionites, but Methodists in particular. The committe has prepared and had printed a comprehensive Directory for the conference. This directory first shows the names of the guests, in alphabetical order,, giving the name of each guests' host during his stay. Then, it gives a cross index, showing the names of the hosts in alphabetical order, and opposite each sets forth the guests to be entertained. The directory is a neat booklet of 20 printed pages, and a grey cover ana contains advertising- matter solicited from local merchants. The Post Office Department agreed to operate a sub-station at the church during the conference, and all mail to he handled there with accuracy and despatch by a bonded postal employee. . o SEE THE BAZAAR The Woman's Missionary Auxiliary of the Presbyterian church will hold a bazaar at the Town Hall.

IN GRIP OF COLD PERIOD This section had its first real snow of 1922 last Tuesday morning:, beginning just after daylight and lasting for about two hours. The white visitor was in tiny particles at first, but soon changed into large flakes. The flakes struck f\ soil which was rather warm and they melted away about as fast as they fell. All sig-ns of the snow had gone Jt)v noon. Begfhming early in the week, this county ha# been in the grip of the coldest weather of the season. o Tell :it to The Horry Herald. <!

Williams, a progressive farmer 1 and business man of Bucks township, died in the early morning of Thursday, November 24th, and the interment of his body took place at Pau, ley Swamp church grounds, the fol' lowing day. He had been in ill health for some [ *ime and was preceded to the grave by his wife, who died some time ago. Mr. Williams formerly liveil in Marion countv. in that nart of Marinn known as Britten's Neck. Selling- his property there about ten years ago. . he purchased a farm in Bucks township find moved over into Horry. It is said that Mr. Williams left his last will and testament in which he gave his property to charitable and benevolent purposes. He reserved a life estate in his will to his wife, but by reason of her death in his life time, the property is left by the will to the charitable institutions as wi'l be seen by a copy of his will which fell into the hands of The Herald last week. This will is in force and will be carried unless it should turn out that Mr. Williams made a later will. The copy of the will follows: STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, MARION COUNTY. THIS IS THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JOSEPH .1 WILLIAMS. t I. I give, devise and bequeath unto my wife, Mary A. M. Williams, all my property, real, personal and mixed. for and during: the term of her natural life only. II. 1 give, devise and bequeath at and after the death of my wife, Mary A. M.

III. I give, devise and bequeath at and after the death of my said wife, Mary A. M.

I Interested parties were in Conway recently making inquiry about the | present whereabouts of the will. It is said thar all of the executor** of the will are dead or pone away except W. F. Williams. At last accounts parties nere were leaving to ' see the executor and try to locate the , original will which is ?aid to have been prepared for Mr. Williams by Probate Judge Hairier, o* Marion .

[ CHAMBER MEETS \ MONDAY NIGHT The Conway Chamber of Commerce I will open its winter schedule on Mon day evening, December 4th. at 7:30 t o'clock, with a dinner at the town ^ hall. This dinner will be prepared and served by the Civic league and the tariff for same will be only 50 cents per plate. The dinners of the [ Chamber of Commerce for the past three years have been very pleasant [ occasions and members of the Cham Her are anticipating equally delight ful gatherings during the coming [ winter months. Following the dinner there will be a discussion of plans by which the Chamber can assist in the observance of national education week from Def cember 3-9 inclusive. A committee of Horry County citizens has been [ appointed to have active charge of t the campaign in this county. They are seeking the co-operation of the t Chamber of Commerce and the prime purpose of "Monday night" meeting J will be to devise plans by which this movement may he fostered. It is also probable that other mat! ters of interest totla* Chamber will be discussed. "* Members of the Chamber are requested to notify the secretary at once to h/\ve plates reserved for them for this dinner. The prison population of the United States, including chain and road Jiangs and women committed to relifjfious or charitable institutions, increased from 140,186 on July 1st, 1917, to 150,131 on July 1st, 1922, the census bureau announced recently.

A VIA i THE HORRY HERALD, SCHOOL IMPRO VEMENT MEETING The entertainment committee of the Conway Civic League was hostess to a most interesting meeting of ' the School Improvement Associations of Horry County Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Town Hall. Tbo meeting was called to order by Miss M/ittic E.? Thomas, school community organizer of the State department of education, with the roll call of the county associations. The following associations were represented and gave reports: Mr. Gore from the Eldorado school stated that the committee wished the county organizer to .meet with them and help reorganize their association. Definite arrangements were made fov this meeting to be held Wednesday rt o.on ~ ?~i rr?t._ tr? ?? i k.K: I 11 uu ii at o.?)v u JL lie V llJVU Association was represented by Mr. J. W. Alford, who stated that his association had held its regular monthly meeting and had raised some monev. Conway School Improvement Association was represented by Mrs. Hoyt McMillan, who reported having purchased a silver loving cup which was awarded the Timrod Literary Society as winner in the annual debate. This cup will be awarded every year. The report from Hickory Hill was especially interesting:. Two delegates and the secretary, Leon Todd,, who is a high school boy, were present. The secretary read the report which stated that all regular meetings had been held and that $20.23 had been raised and lights for the school had been bought. Eight Mile School, at Horry had two teachers, Misses Woodlev and Lewis, and the president Mrs. E. L. Lambert, present. This is a new association which has a lot of work ahead of it as the com- < munitv has a large new unequioped school building to furnish. Cedar Creek had two representatives, Migs Elise Jackson told of plans for futuit* work. Mr. George M. Huggins rep resented tne /.ion Association, wmcn is .1 new one, holding its first meeting next Wednesday. Miss Annie Nur- ( rell. vice-president of the Hickory Hill Association and Mr. Nurrill a, trustee of that school were present. This is also a new association, h report from Shel1 school was read by M iss Thomas, $22.05 had been raised there at a box supper. Mrs. M. J. Bullock, of the I,oris Association, gave vpvv reports of work done there, a $.">00.00 Delco-Light plant has been purchased for the school, and $53.00 this account was raised during last September. The school here is a real community center, the regular monthly meetings being well attended. A short talk by Miss Thomas was given regarding the State work. The South Carolina School Improvement Association has 15,000 members and raised $33,000.00 last year which ,\v4is spent on the schools. All money raised by the associations must be deposited with the county treasurer so that the State Department of Education can get credit for it. The simplest way to do and so use the money too, is to take it with a signed voucher from the trusteees, so that it can be brought back to the association for immediate local use. She described the meeting in Columbia last spring of the delegates from the associations. There were 250 present at the meeting and 110 at the lunch. The county organizer, Mrs. W. A Freeman, was called on. She offered her help to the associations and suggested the use of the school room height and weight charts. This chart is of wonderful value, stimulating as it does the child's natural desire for normal size. It is very simple to use, any teacher or parent can weigh the chil* dren at a grocery store, or measure them with a yard stick and get these with the little printed card that has the seven health rules on it with the child's weight and what he should weigh. She urged the use of these in every school room. Mr. C. E. Allen, the county superintendent, gave a short talk in which he mentioned that Horry County needs help and wants all the state workers. He urged organization of improvement associations and reminded the audience of Education Week, to teach the people the importance of a good school. Miss Thomas continued the program with some practical suggestions for the work of associations: Put in window panes. Nothing detracts so much from a school as broken window panes; supply chalk and erasers; supply brooms and see that they are used; have the floors oiled and take especial care of the sanitary conditions. The association is to bring the parents and teachers together to make the school "om school," the real true community cer ter. The ladies of the Civic League committee served hot cofTee and sandwiches, which were greatly enjoyed. All the organizers secured by this committee were gladly taken away by the guests to do service in the rural communities. n Colds have been prevalent in this section of the county for the past three or four weeks. Tn some cases the disease is spoken of as the flue, but it is quite different from that disease. o To Stop a Cough Qui^Jc take HAYES' HEALING HONEY.t a cough medicine which stops the cough by healing the inflamed and irritated tissues.

Burroughs iecited some history in connection with the junior department ,and outlined plans for the future. Miss Johnnie Atkinson gave a brief history of the intermediate-senior department, C. D. Gasque spoke briefly concerning the young people's department. Mrs. D. A. Spivey's report of the home de partment and service class was gratifying. H. L. Buck spoke on the past present and future of the junior class. M. R. Smith, treasurer of the Sunday school building fund, was called on for a report. A. E. Goldfinch gave a report for the board of stewards. The pastor, the Rev. J. C. Atkinson, spoke of the progress that had been made in all lines of church work during the year. The Rev. W. L. Parker, pastor of the Conway circuit, a guest, spoke of his work in the county and closed with prayer. o A BLANKET OF GREEN Let us put a blanket of green on every acre of our cultivated lands this fall. It will keep thousands of dollars worth of fertility from being washed away by the winter rains, and will inprfi'ico i\nt' nvrtHilftinn npvt fall, besides adding to the attractiveness of our country. Bare, desolate fields are a poor advertisement. Abruzzi Rye. Read carefully what Dr. R. Y. Win-1 ters, Plant Breeding Agronomist, North Carolina Extension Service, has to say about this crop, and then ask your county agent to assist you in getting a supply of good Abruzzi Rye seed. "Abruzzi rye was introduced into our country from Italy more than fifteen years *3go. From its earliest in troduction it proved to be better tha; the common winter rye througho*^ the South. \Vhei\ compared with i>e common winter rye at our Agrieu' tural Experiment Station, the Abru?"' has been much earlier, furnishing more and better grazing and prodt^ ing about one third more seed. No other winter cover crop will give more grazing or more organic matter to turn under on poor land as will Ah ruzzi rye. Ten years ago the State Ex peri merit Station started seed selectioi work with this crop to further improve its seed yield and grazing qualities. The first lot of these seer were distributed to growers of the State last year. Recent reports froir growers who seemed seed show thathe time spent in its improvement w?. well spent. Several growers who thought they had grown Abruzzi rye found that they had been growing common rye sold as Abruzzi. A few had purchased Rosen rye for Abruzzi. The Rosen rye was originated in the in the northwestern part of our country and is not at all adapted to our State. It is very late, making only a small growth by spring and later badly damaged by rust. The common winter rye is better than Rosen rye at any price. On account of the difficulty of se curing* true Abruzzi rye seed the State Experiment Station has grown a'small quantity of select seed which will be supplied growers who are prepared to save it for seed purposes. A list has also been made of growers who have good Abruzzi rye seed. Remember, Abruzzi rye will produce the greatest amount of grazing, or organic matter to turn under of any winter cover crop that can be grown on poor land. It will yield better than wheat and the seed is worth more." G. A. CARDWELL, Agricultural and Industrial Agent, Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company. o In the face of earnest advice against it from the Republican leaders in the Senate, President Harding went before a joint session of Congress and presented his demand for the passage of the Ship Subsidy Bill.
