sc SCHOOL DAYS Wl A ROMAN HOLIDAY. Picnic Given By Francis Marion Liter ary Society. il'navoidsHy omitted last week.) Rome, September 1:?After a long spell of quiet and dreamy ease the Romans rose up and made a holiday almost equal in grandeur to the festive occasions often held bv the ancients of the same name. What occasioned this grand celebration was a picnic which was given by the Francis Marion Literary So- 1 ciety on Wednesday, August 26. Although the majestic sun did not ( favor us with his august presence, j and despite the gentle pour of rain, i quite a large crowd was present. r The doors of the school buildings ? were thrown open to the picnickers and the members of the society, assisted by several young people of the community,did all in their pow- 1 er to make the pleasure seekers en- v joy the day. a Dinner was served in one of the buildings and t.ie appetizing repast t showed to all present that the Ro- C mans do not neglect the culinary o art. ii After dinner all repaired to the o -society hall, where the meeting was n Lnl/) flta linn, n.inrr /nVionfra/1 frrtm 11 UUUj bUC UVUl vvtug vuwu^v^A *4VU? 10 a m to 3 o'clock p m.

This short but interesting programme was rendered in such a correct manner as to reflect credit upon the society and especially the ones taking part in the exercises. The rest of the day was spent in talking, playing games and listening to the most charmiug music played ' on the piano by Mrs Hallie Moore ' of Lake City and Miss Daisie Mun- t iierlvn and vocal music, melodious <, and sweet, rendered by Misses Emmie aud Bessie Snow. All present expressed themselves j * e xl rt a nv?rl I *6 niiV111g UitU a gwU UUIC anu nan to their homes light-hearted, despite ^ the heaviuess and gloominess of the' ] weather. ; ( Mr Editor, me thinks I heard the \ -call of the "Whip-poor-will" last j week and it sounded like old times. ] Such a "pen pushing" "Whip-poor- 1 will" as he is should call long and ! loud. I am sure that the public would be delighted with his weird Dotes. F. R. H. A Payiig Investment. Mr John White, of 38 Highland Ave, Houlton, Maine says: "Have been troubled with a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many advertised remedies, but the caugh continued until I bought a 50c. bottle of Dr King's New Discovery; before that was half gone, the cough was all gone. This winter the same happy result has followed; a few doses once more banished the annual cough. I am now convinced that Dr King's New Discovery is the best of all cough and luug remedies."

Uncle Bob is gong to be so busy holding inquests ver the dead candidates that he will ot have time to look after his poitical fences. So, look out, Uncle lob. Onr grand old county now has two if her members of the House of Rep esentati ves elected and two others o run o?er. We at Harper's look ipon both these candidates as being s good men as we have in the couny and we only wish we could vote or both. We hope that the men who are lected will see that the fish law? specially the hook and line law ? nd the seed cotton license law are epeiled in our county.Both of these aws are a nui3auce, in my opinion. Mr Editor, the people of our town , ,re grateful that we have missed I hose Hoods that have wrought such lavoc in tne upper pare or me oiaie. i 71 There seems to be no damage at J ^ iarper on account of rain and our! ^ :rops are still doing well. ) ^ Good luck to you, Mr Editor, and ^ he grand old Record.
