Here are some answers to the
question: “Why do they call a ship
she?”
If you ever tried to steer one you
wouldn’t ask.
Because it takes so long to get
them ready to go anywhere.
They need almost as much dolling
up and painting as any woman you
ever saw.
Ship’s gotta have its own way or
it won’t go.
Ships always come off—the ways
backwards like the members of a cer
tain sex alighting from street cars.
It costs so much to keep one in
operation.
Why they are always calling at
some place or another.
Because shipbuilders can’t live
without them.
Who ever won an argument from
them?
There’s plenty of scandal connect
ed with their building.
Because they were held together
with steel.
Because they were forever blowing
off steam.
Because they frequently tossed
their noses in the air

For a good many ygars, now, Dar
lington has officially celebrated the
Fourth of July, and in doing this all
of Darlington County, and the larg
er circle of friends in other sec
tions, have been our honored guests.
This annual gathering will be fea
tured this year as usual, and the
same cordial invitation is extended
to the friends and guests of form
er years, with as many new ones
as possible, to come and share the
pleasures of the occasion.
In the first place, a brass band of
distinction and of reputation will
burnish music from 9:30 in the morn
ing, all thru the day, and until 1
o’clock the following morning, these
to be the hours, inclusive, fixed for
the details of the program which will
be submitted for the entertainment
of the hundreds of visitors. There
will be some number offered at brief
intervals during the entire day, un
til the dancing begins at night, and
nothing will be left undone to pro
vide the best celebration of all the
good ones hitherto offered.
Visitors will remember the come
dians who delighted all last year by
their driving in the rustic wagon and
doing all kinds of acrobatic stunts
while their wagon made the rounds
of the Square. These highclass en
tertainers will be here again, and
with these there will be the greasy
pole, the greasy pig, and continuous
free performances on the Public
Square during the day. At the ath
letic field,( known, popularly as the
fair grounds, races and a baseball
game will be the special features.
The North Carolina Champions, the
redoubtable baseball team from Clay
ton, will meet (he famous aggregation
known as the Batesburg-Leesville
team, which has made a superb re
cord this year. Special trains will
be run from Batesburg, Leesville and
Johnston, via Columbia, as this game
will certainy bring hundreds of base
ball enthusiasts from all sections.
The ball games and the races are
not parts of the official program, and
these will not be free, but there will
be no charge for any other entertain
ments featured in the program.
Everyone in Darlington, the busi
ness men very especially (for it is
under the auspices of the business
men that the celsbration will be giv
en) wish it known that the visitors
from the .county will be the special
guests of honor. The business men
of Darlington wish they could have
the pleasure much oftener of having
their friends as their honored guests,
but they insist that they must have
this privilege and this pleasure at
least once a year. Throngs of visit
ors from the country have been pres
ent upon former occasions, and it is
hoped that these will be largely in
creased this year.
His Honor, Mayor J. A. McLeod,
will be general chairman of the oc
casion, and of all committees, and he
will be assisted by the following
committees: Committee on Enter
tainment, P. J. Boatwright, J. S.
Ramsey, D. D. Witcover, M. Bonnoitt,
E. C. Pendergast, W. M. Arnold, W.
H. McFall, A. H. Ward, and Russell
Acree. Advertising committee, A. H.
Ward, D. D. Witcover. Finance com
mittee, M. Bonnoitt, J. S. Ramsey, M.
W. Arnold, W. H. McFall Music
committee, J. A. McLeold and D. D.
Witcover. Program committee, E. C.
Pendergrast and A. H. Ward. D. D.
Witcover is secretary and treasurer
of general committees.

To One Departed
The flowers are dying since you left;
Joyous no more, each lovely head,
Of your dear graciousness bereft,
Droops as if mourning for the
dead.
Ah might the kiss of summer rain
Raise these that wilt upon the
stem?
It might, but since you caught the
train
I’ve plumb forgot to water them
—LEE KINGSTON.
The Porcine Person
Man is somewhat like sausage—
Very smooth upon the skin;
But you can’t tell just exactly
How much hog there is within.
