W T Rowell w and others are trying their luck this year raising beans fo *the market. They hope to ship some before l? ng. That is what we need here?more truck farming. Hope these pioneer bean planters may be successfnl and f encourage others to try. Mr Norwood Register of Georgetown stopped over here to see his father, Mr J W Register, before going to Baltimore, where he intends to locate for the present, at least.

Easter Sunday passed off very quietly here. We had no preaching, hence the people had to go elsewhere. Mr Sam P Cooper, of the Suttons section, passed through town Saturday en route to Georgetown. Your correspondent had occasion to go to Suttons one day last week and, Mr Editor, the road from just behind Mr J B McCants' house is almost impassable. There is only one mud hole from Mr McCants' to R E Blakeley's and that is the whole way. Can't our county Supervisor help us ' out? A little work now will save a ' good deal later on. Come to see us, Mr Eaddy. The Carolina Land and Improvement Co is surely doing some good work between here and Earls cleaning up and ditching, building roads and otherwise improving their lands. The company say that they are going to have between fifty and one I hundred families of people on these lands by the end of this year.

THE GLAD EASTER TIDE FITTINGLY CELEBRATED, i INTERESTING MORNING EXERCISES AND EVENING SONG SERVICE AT THE METHODIST CHURCH. ; Easter, which dav commemorates I the resurrection of our Lord, was j celebrated in the Methodist church Sunday with beautiful and attractive services. After days of unsettled weather and occasional showers, the day was an ideal one. One who is capable of perceiving and appreciating the beauties of nature, as he awoke and walked out into the broad daylight of the morn, there to j find air,earth and sky filled with the I glory of God,was made to pause and exclaim: "The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handiwork." On every hand could be seen evidences of His care and that man realizing it is made to feel in a way the height and depth of a Creator's love, wrought by the crucifixion and the resurrection?thus these glorious promises, awaked by the return of Easter, give a joy inexpressible. On this Easter morn, in all lands where Christ is Lord indeed, a triumphant note swelled the chorus of praise and exaltation, pouring forth from thousands of throats,with their hosannas and their hallelujahs piercing the sky and filling the universe I ' with joyful harmony of redemption. 1 Along with this universal jubilee,the | Methodist church here was especial| Iy elaborate in its exercises. No ! pains had been spared to render the | programme beautiful and pleasing j and none can say that it was other ; than a carefully selected musical 1 programme, and each selection was ; beautifully rendered. The church j was artistically decorated for the occasion. There were palms, pot plants, evergreens and lilies, which made the service more impressive, and the lover of the beautiful could ^ 1 ^ '""1' U n A *wiv?nf lAn n?v\n no I L'UL 1UUIY Willi auiuuaiiuu upvsw ; the whole inspiring scene.
