BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.
From time to time The Sentinel
gives accounts of family reunions,
hence it may n'ot be amiss to write
about the reunion at Mr. W. F. John.'
son's home. July first, about sixty
relatives and friends met there to
celebrate Mrs. Mary Johnson Barr's
birthday. Mrs. Barr is the eldest of
the four surviving children of the l
late Mr. Robert Johnson. Consider
ing the gathering it seemed that Mrs.
Barr had friends in all ages of' life.
Merry children laughed and played
under the cool shade of the trees;
fair maidens "blushed at the praise
of their own loveliness;" young ma
trons smiled on sleeping infants;
groups, who l)ad reached life's after
noon, discussed current events or ex
changed reminiscences of the past.
Mr. B. J. Johnson, a Confederate
veteran, related incidents of the
Civil War in such a graphic manner
.that one could almost hear the Con
federates yell and see the head-long
charges they made.
Tempting refreshments are expect
ed at a birthday gathering, but on
this occasion the dinner had been so
carefully prepared it surpasssed ex
pectation.
Rev. Jackson read the first psalm
and made appropriate remarks. Mrs.
W. F. Johnson played old time piec
es. Several singers were present.
Enlivened by song and story the
summer day glided swiftly away and
the time for parting came all too
soon. Mrs. Barr's friends hope that
she may live to celebrate many more
such pleasant birthdays.
A Friend.

OBITUAIV.
The death angel visited the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Boldin May S
30, 1921, and took frm them their
darling baby, Joe Clyde, age two
years and ten months.. His life was
short but was so ftl1 of sunshine.
To know him was to love him. a
All that loving hands could do was t
done for him, but Jesus said he had t
a place vacant in heaven that he s
wanted Clyde to fill, And today we t
know while our hearts are bleeding s
and broken he is safe forever with p
all the loved ones and is with Jesus s
where he will never know no sorrow d
or care like mother and father have t
had.
W.e know that God never made a t
mistake, but it seemed so hard to I
have him placed in his little white
casket, his little sweet hands full of c
flowers and see him carried away s
from us where we will never hear i
that sweet little voice calling us r
again. But we believe he is calling s
us to come on where he is, where
there will be no more sad parting, a
where all is joy and gladness.
We laid him to await the great I
resurrection day at Flat Rock ceme
tery by his dear old grandfather, I
amid the most beautiful floral offer- t
ing.
We never can thank our dear t
friends and neighbors enough for
their kindness and help, day and
night. May God's richest blessings
rest on them. And. also Dr. Allgood
who we beleve did all he could for
little Clyde. We never can forget
him for all he did.
There'll never be crepe on the door
knob, no funeral train in the
skies,
No graves on the hillsides of glory,
For there ne shall never more die.
He leaves to mourn his loss one
brother, father and mother. We
know he can never come back to his
little chair at the table, but we can
go to wl re he is.
His grandmother,
Mrs. G. A. Bagwell.

CARD FROM ADULT SCHOOL
ORGANIZEDt.
Some months ago the people of
South Carolina were startled by an
article which came out in the Jour
nal of the National Education Asso
ciation. The facts in that article
that were so startling were as fol
lows:
1. So, :th Carolina has the small
est percentage of citizens who can
read than any state in the Union ex
cept Alabama.
2. South Carolina sj~ends the least
percapita for the education of her
citizens. The United States aver
ages $39.04 pecrcapita. South C aro
lina's average is $1 1.17.
3. South Carolina has. the least
uiumber of school days per school
:erm. We p)rovide 113 days for our
oys and girls while the United
9tates' average is 160 days.
4.- Our state has the least per cent
>f girls and boys in high school.
5. We have the least number of
>ublic libraries.
6. We occupy the lowest pilace in
he nation along all educational lines.
These facts have called forth much
~omment from the press, yet they re
nain undlisputed. This record plac
s our state in a position of hunmilia
ion and shame. Our educational
fficieucy is rated far below the
slands of Hawai and Porto Rico.
