A. R. P. CHURCH HAS INTERESTING HISTORY Chronology Drawn By Mrs. Mary Parr The Newberry Associate Re formed Presbyterian Church, which recently celebrated its cen tennial in joint sessiojgig with the Kings Creek A. R. has a most interesting history, which was compiled and read to the members attending the 106th anniversary meeting on Tuesday, October 17 by Mrs. Mary B. Parr. The chronological listening of events and anecodotes connect ed with the church’* eariler days was of such interest that it is being reprinted in its en tirely as follows: The story of the Associate Re formed Presbyterian church in Newberry, South Carolina, is like all histon-.s of Institutions, the pulsing life-story of the people who compose the membership. However the church itself has a distinct life of its own which is more than the composite history of its members. It is the living breathing record of the birth, coming of age, and useful years of maturity of an agent of God in the part of today’s world known as Newberry, South Carolina. This church came into being the middle of the nineteenth cen tury—just one hundred years ago —as Thompson Street A. R. P. church. The little white framed building pointed its steeplod fing er Godward, and resolutely its of ficers charted its course in that direction. Dr. William McMor- rics, Dr. Thomas W. Thompson, and Prof. William Hood were the ruling elders. From 1853 through the bitter war years the Rev. H. L. Murphy served as pastor. But with the conclusion of the war, conditions here as elsewhere in the South, became more dis couraging. So Mr. Murphy re signed the pastorate. When the strugling church needed the care of a pastor most, it had to man age under irregular pastoral lead ership. During this period Dr W. M. Grier labored as supply- pastor for a year. When things looked darkest then came the dawm. The .Rev E. P. McClintock began his fruit ful ministry in 1870 as pastor of Kings Creek and Thompson Street A. R. P. churches, and continued in this capacity for twelve years. Then he found it necessary to reliquish the Kings Creek pastorate and devote his full time to the Newberry church. At this time the church was well organized. The elders were: M. A. Carlisle, James F. Todd George S. Mower, John C. Wil son, and C. F. Boyd. The deacons were: Edwin Carlisle, E. C. Jones, S. B. Jones, and F. N. Martin, according to the church records of 1903. When the church was organi zed, it had only as many mem bers as the average natural fam ily—nine. But by 1903 it had grown nto a church family of one hundred and twenty mem bers. There were the usual auxi liary societies functioning within the church. However the strength of the Thompson Street A. R. P. church could not be measured in terms of its membership nor by its organisations. Its in fluence for good in the Town of Newberry was out of all propor tion to its size. And it was ac- t^roly supporting all the causes of the A. R. P. denomination. A story that is told of this per iod has to do with an experi- Cnoe the ladies .had when as sembled at the church for a mis sionary meeting. It was a sum mer afternoon, and the windows were open. Suddenly a thunder storm arose. A huge ball of fire was seen to roll in the window. One of the good ladies instan taneously jumped to her feet and shouted: “Lord, save us!” Before she had concluded her prayers, the lightning ball shot out anoth er window across the meeting hall, leaving the society mem bers unharmed, but more believ ing in the grace of God than ever before! Time was taking its toll of the shepherd of the flock. That grand old man, Dr. E. P. Mc Clintock, now sixty-eight years of age, resigned (1966) the pasto rate on March 25, 1906. His wife Elizabeth Jane Young McClin tock, continued her consecreated activity in church work through the society. Their daughters, Euphemia and Mary Law, be came presidents of girls’ colleges. By examining the records of 1906, we find that the offeers were—TSlders: C. F. Boyd, M. A. Carlisle, J. N. Martin, Geo. S. Mower, J. S. Reid, J. F. Todd, and J. C. Wilson; Deacons: Ed win Carlisle, E. C. Jones, and S. B. Jones. The new pastor who assumed duties on November 11, 1906, was the Rev. D. G. Phillips. His wife was Jane Wideman Phillips, and they had seven children at this time. His fine gospel ser mons and his willing ready ser vice as pastor was a spiritual up lift era in the congregation. The twenty-three members of the Ladies’ Missionary Society realized they were outgrowng their little white church home on Thompson street. They establish ed a church building fund to aug ment the $2,000 received from tha sale of the church lot. How ever, the buyer agreed that he would not take possession un til a new church home was ready for occupancy. The building fund grew to $4,006. Then came the FIRE! This holocaust oc curred on March 28, 1907. It swept away the church and a large part of the town. Now a new church was a nec essity. The Young People’s So ciety rose to the emergency by raising funds to purchase the lot on the corner of Calhoun and Main streets. The present com paratively imposing red brick structure of the sancturary was ready for Synod on November 5, 1908, and it was dedicated the following year. On May 23, 1909, Dr. Phillips resigned the pastorate to accept a call tendered him by the Chest er A. R. P. church. History marches on, though the personnel of those who are marching in any given section of the parade changes. The of ficers now are—Elders: M. Car lisle, J. C. Halacre, J. H. Hunter, (Continued on back page) A flower arangement clinic, open to the public, will be con ducted at the Court House Tues day, Nov. 14, by Mrs. W. Harrell Wilson of Greenville. The New berry Garden Club is sponsoring this clinic/ Mrs. Wilson is an amateur ac credited judge of The National Council of State Garden Clubs, and a nationally accredited in structor. Sae is known in gar den clubs throughout the South east, having lectured last year in most of the southern states. Two Greenville flower shows, one in 19447 and one n 1949, of which she was chairman, won the purple ribbon, highest award by The National Council of Gar den Clubs. She is president of the South Carolina Accredited Judges, past president of the Greenville Gar den club, was chairman of the State conventions from 1940-1948, and regional director of state gar den clubs in 1943. There will be two sessions of the flower arrangement clinic, which will consist of lecture and demonstration, made easy by Mrs. Wilson’s own method of teaching, which has proved so effective in simplifying the study of flower arranging that she plans to use it this fall in teach ing a class of children aged 4 to 6. The morning session will be 10:30 to 12:36 and the afternoon one from 2:00 to 4:00, at the Court House. Tickets are priced at $1.00 for both sessions or 76c for one. They may be secured from any member of the New berry Garden Club, or at the door on the day of the clinic. Those who attend the Flower Show School clinic have a real treat in store. Mrs. Wilson will instruct on “Flower Arrange ments,’’ and learning from her is truly an adventure in itself. She has developed a revolution ary method of simplifyjbBg the presentation of the basic princip les of flower arranging. This method she calls “teaching through visual aids.” She shows her classes the actual shapes and colors which create patterns pleasing to the eye; and also patterns to be avoided. This she does through use of her own adaptation of the ‘flannel board,’ and with a series of novel charts she has developed. Mrs* Wilson has the unusual ability of carry ing her audience into her sub ject through her own enthusiasm. This enthusiasm has made Mrs. Wilson a “doer” all her life and was instumental in winning for the Greenville Garden club a Pur- pel Rosette, highest award by the National Council of Garden clubs for the 1949 Flower Show, of which Mrs. Wilson was chair man. From the beginner, who has never done more than stick a handful of daisies in a tall glass to the expert who has won rib bons for her tastful arrange ments, everyone will have fun in Mrs. Wilson’s classes.

Newberry Whitmire and Prosperity return ed sizeable majorities for the plan while a number of country boxes went solidly against it. Opposition was noted in the re turns from almost every country area where the school plan was designed to break up the country schools and transport the chil dren to town schools. The vote is evidence that people of the country are not ready to part with their schools and the op position vote is the more sur prising because little was done in opposing the plan whereas those favoring it held meeting* in all sections of the county, before civic clubs, and parent- teacher organizations. Frank Lominick, Jr. was elect ed Commsisioner over Reid Mar- rett by a two to one majority. With three small boxes missing Mr. Lominick received 10-16 votes to 562 for Mr. Marett.
