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.

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.

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

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:

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.

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."

and Industrial
