One day during the great National Corn Exposition, It Is related that a bunch of four good and loyal staunch and true, dyed-in-thp.wool, Laurens county supporters of Please, while In Columbia to see the coronation of King Corn, called in to see and to pay their respects to "The Governor." Sauntering Into the very presence of "The Great White Father," these noble sachems from the Jacks-Scufflotown reservation, saluting the Great Chief began, In the native tongue, a social chat when the head of the tribe, so the story goes, cast aside the ofllcial chalumet (pipe of peace) and with a wavo of the notary scalping toma-' hawk and a savage yell and gesticula tion charac teristic of a noble red man in high authority, cried out: "GO way you stripling papoosees of the sasa-1 fras and short leaf pine belt, 1 have no time to fool with you?get you a j drink of fire water-skittawahbooh and file out and away." Still loath to depart and still stand. Ing, the head spokesman of the trail, Interrogated tremulously, "Most noble Chief, what's the matter with you and the grand old Inca, Hen Tillman of the Edgefloldian braves?" "Tillman," roared angrily the boss of the wigwam. "Tillman is no more chief than you are?he Is a one-eyed son of a single barrel shot-gun?I'm a gentleman." Whereupon the noble four in the regulation single-file, departed, all four agreeing that, "The blamed fool guv'nor ain't got sense enough to lead or drive a blamed goose to?well, grass, and he'll never get another vote from any of us." And yet The Gazette wept and pray ed and cussed and fought and bled and nearly died last summer In the effort to keep some noble men of LfeMl rens county from re-electing Cole lilease.

Tho best is yet to be. The last of life, for which The first was made. Our times are in His hand Who saith, "A whole I planned. Youth shows but half; Trust God: See all, nor be afraid!" Sustained by such a trust our friend and oo-worker, Mrs. Anna W. Poole, came down to old age gracefully and those who came in contact with her could but be pleased with her at tractive personality, and touched by her magnetic nature, made so by the fullness af the Christ spirit within. The sweetness of her life, made her an Ideal friend; and, In testimony of our appreciation of her friendship, and her quiet but faithful work with us, we, the members of the Ladles Aid Society and the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Laurens First Methodist Church resolve: That since God in His all-wise judg ment has thought it best to take from us our member, we shall miss her earthly presence, hut shall re joice In the consciousness that she bas gone to Join the spirits of the Just made perfect; to he with the ungels, and. which is far better, to be with Christ. That we wish to extend to her grief stricKcn children our sincere syin. pathy, and commend to them their mothor's Qod, who has sent them no sorrows that He will not help them bear. That a page in our minutes be ded icated to her memory and a copy of these resolutions be sent to her be reaved family, also to the local papers. Mrs. L. I!. McGeo, Mrs. M. K. Roland, Mrs. J. 11. Sullivan. .Inlicttc Pitts. Our hearts were made sad when we learned that the sweet spirit of .Ju liette Pitts had broken Its prison bars and on the night of February the 1 Sth had gone home to the God who gave it. Juliette was the oldest daughter of Mr. I'Jddie Pitts, of the Poplar Springs community and the oldest grand child of Mr. J. Y. Pitts. She was only eight eon years of age, but she had lived a life of usefulness. She was a helper and companion to her father and another, and a mother to her younger brothers and sisters, who will miss her kind touch and sympathizing words. Possessed with a mind above the average In Intelligence she was a favorite with teachers and pupils at school. She pursued her studies with a teal until her health forced her to glvo up her studies, but God had greater work for her to do. Lying upon a bed of pain for weeks she was a living example of patience. Nev< r complaining, always appreciating ev ery kindness done for her she was an inspiration for others to seek the love of her God. A visit to her sickroom did you good. She shined as a light, and the more she was burned by God's hand the. more brightly she shlncd. None knew her but to love her; none caino in contact with her but fell that they were better for having known her. Her place on earth is vacant, but she occupies a place in heaven. Amid the large number of sorrow ing friends and relatives her body was laid to rest in Friendship cemetery on Thursday, February the 20th. She was a loyal member of the Presbyterian church, and her pastor. Rev. .1. M. Dalian, paid a beautiful tribute to her life. In front of the beautiful white casket marched six girls dressed in white. They were Misses Bnrnie Wal lace Luelle Wolff, Lizzie Book Sudii Balentine, Ellen Abrains and Mary Donnan. Especially touching was the song "Nearer My God to Thoo", sung by these girls and the active pall beaera, Messrs. Archie Simmons.
