Pleasant Grove News
We are having plenty of rain in this
section and crops are looking the best
we have seen in several years, but if
the rain does not let up in a few days
so the farmers can plow some more they
will be cut short, as some had just be
gun to lay by when the rain set in.
Prof. Paul Carpenter of Marietta
took charge of our school Monday, July
16, but on account of being appointed
carrier on a rural mail route in Green
ville county he gave up the school after
having taught a week. We are sorry he
could not remain with us, but we wish
him success with Uncle Sam.
There seems to be a deadly disease I
among the horses in this section. Two
have recently died and more are sick.
It has been circulated that Mrs. .J. F.
Rigdon has the pellagra, but the writer
is very glad to state that the report is
untrue. It started from some talker.
Mrs. Mary Fortner is visiting her
(laughter, Mrs. John Anders of Green
ville.
Well, Mr. Nations seems to be on a
wonder, but the Bible tells us to watch
and pray lest we enter into temptation.
Watch is one of the most essential
words in the Bible, but nowadays most
of us seem to be looking through the
wrong eye and making stumbling blocks
for other people. P. G. S.
From Pickens Route 3
Crolis in this section are looking fine.
Corn is extra good and cotton is late but
good.
Montvale Sunday school is progress
ing nicely with W. I. Gravley as super
intendent. We have about 1l0 enrol!ed
with an average attendance of 70.
We noticed in The Sentinel that owing
to the crowded condition of iagood
school that no one irom outside that
district would he allowed to attend
school there. No wonder it is crowde(;
a little one-room building - one of the
smallest in the state. Why can't 1Ha
good have as good school building as
any other district in the county?
The writer was too old to register.
but if Uncle Sam whoops fo r me I witi
be ready to answer. 4
I see you have invited Brother Nations
to cofhe to Pickens and go to church
with you and told him he would be as
welcome without his pocketbook as with
it. The writer would have to come
without his, as the elephant has stepped
on it. ' ' F tn:
Birthday Celebration .
The children, grandchildron and some
relatives and friends of Mrs. Malinda
Hudson recently surprised that good
Ilady by gathering at her home near
lagood's mill and celebrating her 63d
birti'day in appropriate fashion. About
1 o'clock the table was bouptifully lilled
with good things to eat and this was
greatly enjoyed. In the afternoon the
young people gathered around the organ
andl some good musie was madle. T1he
entire (lay was enjoyedl hy all present
and~ parting time came all too soon.
Among those present, besides rela
tives, were Mr. and Mrs. J . F.
Kelley, Mr. and Mrs. A. M. N.
Gravley, Mrs. .Jesse WVard and children,
W. Grant and children. May God spare
Mrs. Hludson's life to celebrate many
more such birthdays. ONa PRtES1ENT.
Hey There!
How about your letterheads,

Union Meeting at Secona
The union meeting of the Pickens As
sociation was held at Second last Satur

Saturday was not so good as it might
have been, as only three churches were
represented, but the interest and spirit
of the meeting was fine. The attend
ance Sunday was good and the services

Some splendid discussions were had
Saturday. The subject of church dis
cipline produced the greatest interest
and after full discussion the union adopt
ed the following: That this union meet
ing recommend that the churches of
this Association begin to discipline their
members at once with 1irmness and love
as laid down by the New Testament.

Few Words to W. 0. W.
Just a few words to the W. O.W. W. camps
and others who ought to he Woodmen:
It was my privilege to attend the Sov
ereign Head Camp which met in Atlanta
.1uny 10 and continued in session until
July 21. It was :a great meeting and
the very best talent our country affords
wsa there -men who stand high in the
councils of the state, ministers who are
recognized as leaders in their churches.
etc. I felt prouder than ever before
that I belonged to the Weoidmen.
Manv little changes were nmade in the
constitution, but every inch ot grounld
was well discussed lhv men on: bith
sides and each change ::ie :-ien. I to
h.? for the good of the order.
The fellowship of the brethren w::;
delig;htful. No North, South, East i r
Vest, but we were one in spirt, love
and effort. 'Ii promote the peace, bar
men',' and l)rosperity olur noble order
secmed to be the desire of nearly every
member. Our Sov. Commander, W. A.
Fraze&. is a great man. No matter
how much confusion, when Frazer gets
up to speak everbody gets quiet. They
want to hear what he has to say. lie is
always clear and to the point.
The delegates from South Carolina
were very attentive at every session of
the convention and the best of feeling
prevailed. When the time came to say
good-bye I felt like singing " Blest
Be the Tie That Binds, '' etc.

Bondsmen, Not Ex
Treas., Paid Money
The item in The Sentinel last week,
stating that ex-Treasurer Ta lor H.
Stewart had settled in full the shortage
in the treasurer's office, was a mistake.
The treasurer's bondsmen, Messrs. J.
M. Stewart, J. McI). Bruce and I. M.
Mauldin, settled the shortage. We
make this correction to keep the record
straight and that the people may know
the facts.
We got our information last week
from Treasurer 11inton, who was under
the imlpression that Mr. Stewart had
horrowed the money to make up the de
ficiency.

CITY OFFICIAL
ENDORSES A-I-M
Says It Should Be Used By Every
Person Advancing In Age.
"1T PROLONGS LIFE"
The following statement, coming from
a prominent city official of Salem, Va.,
bears weight in that it come rom one
whose position demands the truth at all
times. Read what he says:
"1 have tried Acid 1ron Mineral and
can highly recommend it as a constitu
tion builder and general health restorer.
I believe every person of advanced age
should take Acid Iron Mineral, and that
it will prolong their life. I have also
found it very valuable in stopping blood
and healing sores, " says Mr. 1. (.
Webber, Chief of Police and Supt.
Water Works, Salem, Virginia.
Men prominent in public life do not
make a habit of praising medicines.
Bather they condemn them. And in
that Acid Iron Mineral has proved so
eflicient as to win the praise of Chief
Webber is indeed a triumph for this
wonderful preparation of nature's.
Acid Iron Mineral is not a patent
medicine. The chemist has been unable
to imitate or reproduce it. It is obtained
from the only natural medicinal iron
mineral deposit of its kind known to
the world.
