AUTO DAMAGti AM)S ,
In the case ot' Van B. Turnebi'.le
against Arthur Burgess, tried here
some time ago in the magistrate
jourt concerning an accident which
.he plaintiff alleged had been done to
pis jjnwchine by Burgess, the manpstrat${
court found the sum of $2f? as
a verdict for the plaintiff ,and the de-j
fendant, Burgess, appealed to the
higher court, the circuit court of Hoiry
County .
The defendant has just lost his appeal
,as Judge Tovvnsend has just rendered
his dectsion finding in favor of
the plaintiff and the verdict in ;he
magistrate court has been sustained.
rm <t ?
mis case grew out ot an accidcnt
on the Myrtle Beach road some time J
igo. Two machines ran together and B
the plaintiff claimcd to have had dam- 1
age to an amount iess than one bur- !
dred dollars and thus he brought his i
suit by attaching the car of Burgess
in the magistrate court.

L. W. WOODBURY (
L. W. Woodbury returned from a
sanitarium last week, where it is said
he has been taking treatment on account
of bad health.
Recently ho mnde ?n assignment of ;
the small store th.it he had been conducting
near the Conway post office,
claiming that he could not pay his
creditors the various debts that he
owed.
Recently the creditors met and appointed
an agent to act with J. O.
Chestnut, the assignee, in the disposition
of the very small amount of
groceries and one or two fixtures that
Woodbury had in the small shop.
1 .ist week an inventory was taken
showing the stork in itemized form. .
It was estimated that this would not
sell for much more than fifty or
seventy-five dollars. As he owes about
five hundred dollars it is easily seen
that his creditors will get very little
on their debts, if anything.

There was an enthusiastic meeting '
jt ine unautauqua guarantors hold at
Ihe Peoples Bank Building last Monday
afternoon at 5 o'clock, with Mrs.
Marie Dobbs Jones, the Chautauqua
Superintendent, present.
Representative ladies of the town '
met the committees at this meeting a 1
follower Mrs. M. G. Andersen, of the 1
School Improvement Association; Mrs.
W. F. Alexander, of the Civic League;
Mrs. McQueen Quattlebeaum, of the '
Parent Teacher's Association; MissElizabeth
Sasser of the High School
Literary Societies: Mrs. E. J. Sherwood
of the Women's Federated
Clubs; Miss Ella Sessions, Secretary
of the Conway Civic League; Mrs. M.
A. Wright, of the Fine Arts Club.
Many things were decided at that
meeting which will make thi<< season
the most successful the town has ever
had in the holding of a Chautauqua.
The first thing to be considered was
the use of the now school auditorium
instead of the big tent which is furnished
by the Chautauqua Association.
It had been advertised that the tent
would be used this time and for thai;
reason some argument was heard
against the use of the school building1.
There was more argument for it, however,
than against it, and it was found
that the auditorium cou'd be had at
less expense than the cost of the tent.
It was therefore decided to use the
auditorium, which is given up to be
one of the finest ever finished in the
State. New advertising: lias been sent
out tellinp: of the change from the
tent which was to have been pitched
on the vacant corner at the Buck Motor
Co., to the school building, and
there will be no confusion or inconvenience
whatever by reason of this
change.
It was decided to make several
booster trips through the county on
