METHODISTS TO BUILD
NEW CHURCH.
MOVEMENT ON FOOT TO ERECT $12,000
STRUCTURE?COMMITTEE AT WORK
SOLICITING Fl'NBS.
A movement to build a new.
modern house of worship has
taken definite form anions the
members of Kintfstree Methodist
church, and to that end a
comnrttee lias been appointed
to solicit subscriptions to the
building fund. This committee,
composed of seven members,
lias gone actively to work among
the membership of the church
and the success that has attend- ;
ed their efforts is indeed gratify-1
ing. It is proposed to build
a church to cost about $12,000!
and already, we understand, at
least one half ot that amount
has been pledged. i
That this is a most commend-!
able enterprise on the part of
the Methodists ot Kingstree
goes without saying. The cause
speaks for itself arwd nothing
that we can say would add to
its worthiness.
To speak plainly, the com-j
paratively shabby church struc-1
tures of our town have long been !
a reflection on the Christian j
people ot Kingstree. Strangers
coming here are struck with
the contrast oetween our public
buildings and many elegant
residences and do not understand
this condition. In fact,
it is a condition that should not
obtain and is therefore hard to
explain.
That there is as large a pro- J
portion of God-fearing, Christian J
people in Kingstree as can be j
found in any other community j
of the same size, we believe to1
be beyond question, but the fact j
is very evident that their
spirituality has not taken coo- j
crete form in the building of
handsome houses of worship.
We are glad indeed to see an
effort at least to remove this
reproach from our community.
Observation in other com
munities convinces, us that
should the Methodists succeed
in their praiseworthy enterprise
the other denominations wil! in
a short while follow the example
before them and build new
and handsome churches. All it
needs is for one congregation to
show that the project is feasible.
As a material asset to our town
(while this is the lowest form of
incentive) it would pay every
business man to subscribe liberally
to the building fund of any
church edifice, regardless of denomination.
We hope that the
Methodists will succeed even

beyond their expectations in
raising monev for their new
i building. Their plan isapractijcalone
and if they be in earnest?as
we have no doubt they
are?it is only a question of time
when Kinifslree can boast of at
least one church building in
:
, keeping with the town.
. God speed the day!
COMPANY OF SINGING GIRLS
Gave High Class Concert Monday
* ? n.i a ?
tveninq ai aunuui Auuiiunmii.
The College Singing (lirls and
1 Walter Eccles, the tir.st entertainment
of the lyceum course,.
j was greeted by i fair-sized
jaudience at the school audi- j,
! torium Monday night. The
| eight pretty, golden-voiced;
young women were evidently {
fresh in the lyceum field, yet i
! they showed none of the gau-1
jcherie of beginners, playing!
| their parts smoothly, with the i
skill of of seasoned veterans
and the impressment of youth i
and enthusiasm. ;
The College Girls' programme
is varied and elaborate, rang-1
ing all the way from plantation (
melodies to grand opera. The
company is said to be a new
one, out on its first tour, and
the opening performance was
given here Monday evening.
Mr Walter Eccles, as monolo-'
gist and impersonator, was,
unusually tine and every number j
lie presented was enthusiastic- j
ally received. Mr Charles Pear- j
sail, the musical director and
7 I
accompanist, showed marvelous
facility in adapting his scores |
to the wide variety ot subjects
embraced in the programme.
On the whole, the company is j
the strongest lyceum attraction j
that has ever been seen here:
and Mr .1 D Gilland, the enter-J
prising manager of the local j
lyceum, is due the thanks of the J
community for affording the i
people an opportunity to enjoy j
such high class talent at home
and at a reasonable price.
While the attendance Monday
j evening was fairly good, the
"'College Girls" really deserved
a better patronage than was
accorded them there.

KINGSTREE GRADED AND
: HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. :
? ?
The Kingstree Graded and
High school opened on the lhth
with the best attendance in the
history of the school. In the
high school department there
are over 50 enrolled, and we
trust this year will be a "record
breaker" long to be remembered.
We have fourteen enrolled in
the tenth grade, which is the
largest in the record of our
school.

enter our class Mis^Lillie Mcintosh.
of Mouzon. 1 C., but are
sorry to note that she was taken
ill the second day of school,
and has not yet returned. We
hope to have her with us again
soon.
We are glad to have Miss
Emma Cooper, a young lady of
the tenth grade, with us again.
Emma was taken ill the latter
part of last year, and deserves
credit for being able to go on
with her class mates.
The library was opened Monday,
and the librarians began
lending out books. We trust it
will be patronized more this
year than last, although the
librarian was kept busy last
term.
The tenth grade held a class
meeting Wednesday of last week
and elected the following
officers tor the ensuing term.
Sam Stackley, president; Vivian
Wheeler, vice president; Blooma
Kennedy, secretary; Tommie
GillaDd, treasurer.
We have had quite a number
of visitors this week. On Monday,
Misses Annie Stackley,
Florrie Jacobs and Jimmie
Britton. On Tuesday, Misses
Ada Brockington, Clara Montgomery,
Lula Brockington,
Mary Swann, Lillian Salters,
of Salters, Annie Jenkins,
of Virginia. We hope they will
continue to come throughout the
entire session.
Miss Estelle Campbell, our
efficient music instructor, and
Miss Alice Beckham, the popular
fifth and sixth grade teacher,
spent the week-end with relatives
in Florence.
The Wee Nee literaTy society
will hold its first regular meeting
in the society hall Friday
afternoon at 4:30 oclock. We
hope to make this the most
prosperous year in the history
->f the sncietv.
We hope to have a goodly
lumber of new members. We
shall be glad to have the honoriry
members come more often
:han they have in the past.
