LUTHERAN COLLEGE TO BE BUILT (-iris of Lutherans in South Carolina to Hare an Opportunity of Educa tion as well as Boys. Columbia, S. C, Dec. 30.?The Luth eran synods of South Carolina and Tennessee will establish a college for girls in South Carolina, This was the decision reached yesterday, when a eqtumittee appointed in November, met in Columbia to discuss the matter. The committee is composed of: Dr. E. J. Btherldge, chairman, Leosville; C. M. HSQrd, Lexington; J. A. Cromer, Lex ington: C. P. Dootcr, Leesvllle; S. P. Koon, Prosperity. The committee will meet, in Columbia again on February 1. to open bids from cities desiring the College and at that time it will be dell Initely announced, where the institu tion will bo located. The Lutheran church is one of the few which has not a denominational school for girls in this State, and the establishment of the new college will fill a long felt want. At a joint con ference of the South Carolina and Tennessee synods, held in November, it was decided to appoint the com mittee, which met here yesterday, with a view to looking Into the ad-1 i isabillty of establishing a college for girls and to make a decision. Tlio location will be decided at a meeting held here on February 1, Bids will be received from all towns in this State desiring to be consid ered, and the one offering the best altottnd inducements will he accepted. ,\1 toady several South Carolina cities : eve their eye on the new institution oi learning and will wage active cam paigns to land the location. Coluin ! la, Newborry, Spartanburg, Bates burg and Loxington will certainly make a great try, and no doubt other cities will hid. About $75,000 will be the amount 1 > ponded for buildings to begin with, and possibly more. It Is the Idea of the committee to push the plan and to he ready for work next Sep tember. That the idea, to start them, v. :? il materialize, seems entirely proba ble from the interest being shown aid the contributions being made. Dr. E. J. Etheridge, chairman of the committee, said yesterday that the school would compare with any in th" state. He felt much encouraged wl'h the interest being shown. The Lutheran seminary is located In Columbia as is the Lutheran Pub lication Board's office. The Luther an Church Visitor is published here. The Columbia would therefore be u very advantageous place for the loca tion of tho new school.?The State. For that awful cough take Bloodine Cough Checker. A 50 cent bottle will last longer than most any cough. TO CONQUER CHARLOTTE. Red Iron Racket to Open Store In North Carolina City?Another Step Ferward. J. C. Burns & Company, "Tho Caro lina Hustlers," "Red Hot Goods at Red Hot Prices," "Same Goods for Less Money, More Goods for Same Money,'" have decided to extend op erations Into North Carolina. They have leased a store building in the city of Charlotte and will open up for business within a few days. The store is in the business section of Charlotte and will be under the direct management of Mr. C. D. Entriken, manager of the Spartanburg store. Of course Col. L. E, Hums, of Laurons, and Col. J. C. Bums, of Greenwood, will keep an eye on the business as they do over all of their stores. The business of these stores jumps With leaps and bounds year by year. It has now come almost to a pass where each yearly addition to the calendar sees a new Rod Iron Racket store and wherever these stores open up a new era in sell inn goods Is ush ered in. j. C.

We must say that we have been wondei fully blessed, and we now ask In the name of our lieu' en'y Fa ther that we mty be bles.ied even as much in 1912. While we write we stop to think of the dear ones who were with us on the above date, who have passed to the great beyond and we too nearer before the cottlng of the sun of another Christinas eve, bo numbered with these dear oner,. The Whole community was shocked when the news reached Lisbon that Mr. Clif. Teague had the misfortune of losing his right eye from the ef fects of a Hornau candle in the hands of some of the boys with whom he I was having a merry Christmas eve. Young Teague is in Greenville at a sanitarium doing as well as could he expected. We hear some talk of the general assembly being asked to do away with the rural police. Now. we want to say right here, that the rural police are doing more good than any other ofll cers in the state, from the fact that they have more territory to work In. We would like to know why these of ficers should be done away with. They certainly don't cost the county any thing, in the wind up from what 1 can gather. We admit, when our hands go to church with whiskey, bunding it around and with a gun In his hip pocket, ready to use it on all occasions, and he docs use it. we have to pay the bill as we need him on the farm. With all of that we have a great deal less of disorderly conduct at these places of meeting since WO got the rural police. We fear that the small pox is going all over this county If those who have it are not quarentlned. Dr. Peakc has been up vaccinating the school Children but we hear of others out side of the school children having the smallpox. Mrs. I.ilia Bowers and children, of Americus, Gn., Mrs. H. B.
