they have to drive to town.

WONDERFUL INTEREST
IN THE CREAM ROUTE
Recently Inaugurated tn Pendle
ton and Sandy Springs Sections
by Clemson College.
According to Cncle Dave Taylor,
who has lately visited various parts
of the section of country in the region
around Pendleton and Sandy Springe,
wonderfnl interest 1B being displayed
by the farmers there in the cream
route which Clemson College recently
Inaugurated in* that part of the coun
ty, as recently exclusively announced
in the columns of The intelligencer.
He 8?yi. that heretofore willie the
Pendleton-Sandy Springs couutry ha*
been well ahead of other parts of the
county or the State in dairying, that
there has been no sufficient immed
iate market, the cream having to he
shipped to Atlanta, Charlotte, Charles
ton. Columbia and elsewhere. Ander
son-taking only a small part. Now
the formers are enabled ?o turn over
4heir cream and butter fa-, to the route
wugon of the college und once month
ly get their butter and cream checks.
By this means an immediate cash
market has been secured, which ia
paying the farmers handsome cash
dividends on their dairying invest
ments and proving of incalculable
value to the whole countryside.
Later, said the populur Sandy
Springlan, so well known in Anderson,
the number of farmers making a bus
iness of furnishing butter fat and
cream to tho route will have grown
so large that it will be necessary to
locate in Pendleton, and later at
Sandy Springs and A?UOI'BU?I cream
eries, which will be a revolution In
conditions In thc county, thus provid
ing a monthly cash money (dairying)
crop to the farmers, and turning over
io them hundreds of thousands of dol
lars annually. It will literally trans
form the county. No one who has
not visited Wisconsin, Illinois or Iowa
can appreciate tho vast importance of
the work, as it means a new revenue
to all farmers, and incidentally tho
giving to the county of a claa? of in
dustries which guarantees the perma
nent future of tlie county.
8PARTANIIURG MUSIC
FESTIVAL IN BALANCE
After Twenty Tears of Achievements
Great Institution May Fail.
SPAF'TANBURO, Dec. 2.-After 20
years of achievements, during which
time lt has become recognized as one
of the great annual musical events of
tho country, the fa^e of the Spartan
burg music featlval ia said to bb hang
ing in tho balance. An o ni ci ul call for
a meeting of the directors of the Spar
tanburg Music Festival Association to
be held tomorrow Bay: ''The meeting
is called to decide whether there will
be a festival nest spring cr not and
ls therefore very important."
It costs more than $10.000 to give
thia festival and though it has, lost
money onlv upon three years in the
20 it has been given, the loss. lost
year was heavy, amounting to more
than $2.000. a fact that is evidently,
having its influence In bringing about
the present crisis. At the close of
the festival last spring thin inns waa
announced and immediately, in order
to assure the life of the festival a
campaign was launched to sell tickets
amounting to $8*000 for 'the festival
of ISlu. SuuBcr?y?lonB were made to
tickets amounting to $6,000 and lt
waa believed th<> festival had been
saved.
No announcement has been made
as to the difficulties that have arisen
since that time so th*.ro is naturally1
Intense interest In tho developments
of the meeting called for tomorrow.
It was understood thae the r>smro3ch
Orchestra and, possibly artists had^j
been engarrad for the next festival'.
Practically all of the great Bingera of
the world 'with the exception of Car
uso have ?ung in this festival and
its patronage has been from all tho
Southeastern States.
Card: of Thank?. j
We wish to thank the friends and
neighbors for the great ? assistance,
rendered us in saving the household
effects from the fire; and to express
our sincere gratitude for the many
acts of kindness shown.

FAVORS LAING CITY
TO PAVE THE STREETS
Ruft? Fant Says Every Citizen of
the Town Should Get Behind
ihe Proposition.
"I sincerely hop?? Ande.Bon may be
spared the Ignomy of ever having
again to present to the stranger ? nd
home folks alike the disgraceful ap*
pearance -of the city's streets for the
past few days; it is an outrage that
a wealthy, prosperous city the Bize
of Anderson, the fifth largest city in
the state, affords such streets. Every
citizen of thc city should get behind
any move made to give the town tif
ien to twenty miles of paved streets.
It IB the Imperative work before An
derson and something must be done.
Of course tho abutment property
law bill will help, and he the hammer
by which the streets can be paved. I
hope personally I may never again
have to drive down such streets . It
ls simply an outrage," said Mr. Ru
fus Fant yesterday, when discussing
thc matter with u group of business
men. "We should get rid of such con
ditions and not let it happen again.
This should be the last winter under
such appalling conditions. Here is a
city of 20,000 people, alive, prosperous
and growing, and Oh, such streets!"
Mr. Kant -favors voting bonds at the
earliest possible moment, and believes
that 90 per cent of the voters, and es
pecially laboring people, who need
work, and property owners, who de
sire the improvement, will stand back
of tbe bond issue.

HOME OF LEO GEISBERG
DESTROYED BY FIRE
FURNITURE PRACTICALLY
ALL SAVED BUT HOUSE
BADLY DAMAGED
MADE USELESS RUN
Fire Department Waa Given
Wrong Address; and Had a
Two Mile Chase.
Ari alarm of fire was turned in yes
terday afternoon at 3:25 o'clock,
which, after quite a misunderstanding
as to where the Tire was located, was
finally discovered to be on West
Franklin street instead of West Mar
ket, aa waa reported. The building was
the property of Mr8. Eva Edwards,
and waa occupied by Mr. Leo Oels
berg and family.
Mr. and Mrs. Oelsberg were away
from home at the time, their child
ren playing in front of the house.
The fire seems to have originated
in a closet which was directly against
a chimney, and was probably caused
by o defect in same. The plastered
walls and metal roof on the building
prevented what would have been a
disastrous fire on account of the'd ?lay
on the part of tho fire department in
arriving.
It was said that all losses arc ful
ly covered \:y insurance. Chief Jack
son. in a statement to a reporter tot"
The Intelligencer, ntated that tho
alarm was phoned in over th? nolie .
.'phone and seemed to be the voice o.'
a child talking, who stated that the
fire was on West Market street. After
making all haste to the edge of the
city limits, without discovering the
Are, thc bell rang again, calling them
back to the station where the pro
per directions were given.
The automobile truck, of course,
was in splendid shape for a two mile
run in the heavy mud, but the horses
that pull the hook and ladder truck,
wore about all in n.ftcr their long run
in search of the fire.
The water pressure was fine and
the firemen had things going they
way in a few minutes after arriving.
JNO A. AUSTIN'S

in his make-up to appear as Santa

keen desire that all children shall en
joy Christmas.
' Any person who stood and watched
him working at the almost endless
task o? . awring a st?r?, and tho rear
rangement of its stock, would see at
a glance that he took great pleasure
In his wonk; and ? after a short talk
with "Uncle Johnny" -it was easy to
understand why the children like to
go to his store to* buy their toys.
Mr. Austin told a reporter for The
Intelligencer yesterday that notwith
standing the European war, he had
os many, and as nice a lot of toys as'
hs had ever carried fer Christ rn*v. sad
that he wanted each and every one ot

to make their parenna bring them
down to Santa Clans' headquarters to
see the many beautiful toys and pret
ty dolls, etc, that were awaiting old
Kris Kringle's arrival In Anderson for
distribution among the good children
of Anderdon and vicinity.
" Mr. Austin also said that while he
mude lots of'friends down on the cor

.the "Square" that while he had al
ways done business "on the square"
his More house had never been locat
ed "on the square," and he was de
lighted with hie new location.
