>Ji for Convenience,
r
r * Entirely apart from the many
other advantages of a Personal
Checking Account at the
Bank, the convenience of it is
no small consideration. The
ability to make purchases and
^ pay bills after banking hours
Bl without the necessity of always
having a pocketful of
BKB money is worth a great deal.
HI With a Check Book in your
H^Lx>cket, you are taking no risks
HBf losing money and yet you
^HBvays have all of your money
hand and ready for use.
MflHie is as liable to need money

We were pleased to see in town

West, which he enjoyed very much.
The West is all right, our friend remarked,
but nowhere is there to be
found the equal of South Carolina,
or Williamsburg county. With which
sentiment we most heartily concur.
We \vere delighted to have as a
caller at our sanctum Friday of last
week the jovial editor of the Southern
Christian Advocate, Rev S A
Nettles, who was in town in attendance
upor. the district conference of
the M E church,South. Our distinguished
visitor paid Kingstree and
her ivople a glowing compliment on
her progress and hospitality. He
used to live here and told us of some
of his experiences hunting rabbits in
this vicinity, and particularly of one
wherein he killed three rabbits at
one snot.
The editor is sincerely grateful to
the ^jnd ladies who served the veterans'
dinner Memorial day for the
delicious viands so kindly sent to our
home. We were not able to be present
at the Memorial exercises in person,
but in spirit and sympathy we
were with them. If the tray sent us
were an index of the spread prepared
by our fair patriots, we feel
sure that the veterans enjoyed a
feast. Everything in season was included
in the menu and the cooking
would have tempted the appetite of
Lucullus or aroused the envy of
Brillat Savarin.
Memorial Day.
The annual Memorial day exercises
were carried out in Kingstree Saturday.
The members of the local
chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy
served a bounteous dinner
to the old soldiers who were present
attending the annual meeting of
Camp Pressley, United Confederate
Veterans, which was held in the opera
house. There were about fifty
of the old vets on hand and all seemed
to enjoy the occasion as a child
does a Sunday-school picnic.
The meeting was called to order
by Commander H H Kinder, who introduced
Rev P S McChesney as the
speaker of the occasion. Mr McChesney's
address was eloquent in style
and appropriate in theme, and at its
conclusion the speaker was heartily

After the transaction of its routine
business the camp adjourned
and as a body marched into the McCabe
store room, where a row of
tables fairly groaned under the
sumptuous feast prepared and
spread for the old soldiers by their
lady friends of Kingstree.
After the feast a number of the
veterans took a hand in firing off |
the old cannon which stands on the
court house green as a souvenir of
the days of 1876. The firing of
the old artillery piece afforded considerable
amusement to the old vets
and greatly dengntea tne many
school children who took part in extending
Kingstree's most gracious
hospitality to them.
