A Splinter in His Foot.
Tommie, the little son of Dr. and
Mrs. S. H. Griffith, had the misfor
tune to stick a large splinter in his
foot one day last week while playing
around the house. The splinter was
not taken out till Sunday, and the
little fellow has been suffering much
pain from his wound. He is now con
fined to his bed, but we hope he may
soon he up again.
Fine Strawberries.
Our thanks are due, and are here
by tendered, Dr. W. A. Fort for a jar
of excellent strawberries which ho
kindly brought us Friday. The ber
ries were large and well formed and
extremely delicious in flavor, and
with the addition of sugar and cream
they made a dish fit for the gods.

Resolutions.
Whereas it has pleased God in his
infinite wisdom to call from our midst
our brother. Z. V. Gault, whom we
had learned to honor and esteem for
his noble qualities and manly vir
tues, leaving to his friends and so
ciety a memory to be reverred and
cherished, and
Whereas, realizing the beauty and
strength of character he ever dis
played in his life, the Montague So
ciety deeply mourns the loss of the
beloved brother;
Therefore, be it resolved; First,
that we bow in submission to His di
vine will and say, “Thy will, O Lord,
be done.”
Second, that we, the members of
the Montague Society, recognizing
the true merit of our beloved friend
and brother and feeling that we have
sustained an irreparable loss, do
take this opportunity of expresing
our great sorrow and profound grief.
Third, that we extend to his grief-
stricken father and mother and en
tire family our deepest sympthy in
their hour of great grief.
Fourth, that a copy of these resolu
tions lie sent to his parents, to the
Baptist Courier, the Gaffney Ledger,
and Furman Echo, and that a page
in the minutes be dedicated to his
memory.

Picnic at Providence.
On last Friday the teachers of
school No. 2 took their pupils and a
few friends over to Providence
church for a picnic and general good
time. A bountiful repast was spread
in the beautiful grove and all did
ample justice to the many good
things prepared.
Prof, and Mrs. Shuford are doing
a good work in school No. 2 as is
shown by their re-election for another
year. The year just ended is their
third year, which speaks well of
their good work there. We predict
for them greater success the coming
year than they have had in the past,
though the past has been all that
could be desired.

Picnic at Limestone.
Last Friday the members of the
different Sunday schools in the city
went down to Limestone springs and
spent the day in pleasure and recre
ation. Dinner was spread in the
spring lot and was partaken of by
everybody who felt like eating,
whether he had taken a basket or
not. A musical program had been ar
ranged, and in the afternoon this was
rendered in the auditorium of Lime
stone College.
A feature of the day was a ball
game between the Berean and the
Baraca classes. The game was hotly
contested for one hour and thirty
minutes, and resulted in a score of
14 to 7 in favor of the Bereans. The
oatteries were; Bereans—Snead and
Clary; Baracas—Lipscomb and
Hamrick. Lawrence Wood, a veteran
of the sport, umpired the game, and
his decisions were rendered in a fair
and impartial manner, and were sat
isfactory to both sides.
Limestone is an ideal place for a
picnic, and the day was very pleas
antly spent by everyone who took
part in the festivities.
