CHILDREN'S DAY AT BENSON. Happy Recurrence of Annual Auspicious Occasion. Benson, June 23:?It is really remarkable that an annual occurrence of any kind could happen successively for yean, attended by favorable circumstances each year. Saturday, June 20, was another one of those happy Children's days which took place at Cedar Swamp Methowiof /.infrth thi? hoinc one amonfif U. OL VIIVU Vti) vn.w many that we have had the privilege and pleasure of reporting to The Record. A large crowd from every section within a reasonable distance gathered in the early morning at the church, apparently putting aside all cares of life for the purpose of having one da> of enjoyment. The training of the children was ^ Ml. rn 1 M: .? done by Airs u unit* &pps aim miss Sadie Snowden, who had been unt.ring in their efforts of preparing a programme for the day. Those who took part in the exercises and rendered them so nicely were: Omega Ward,Sadie and Mabel Tyler,George ad Florence Mabel Rembert, Eula Fowler, Blanche and Dave McCutchen, Dan,Herbert,William and Henry Brown,Julia Marion and Emory McGill, Dosia Salters,Francis and Addie Burrows, Hazel Epps, Dolores McNeil and Cora Hanna. Appropriately selected songs were used for the occasion. Mesdames Nita Cunningham, Nita Epps, Misses Maude and Muriel Chandler, Miss Alma Dukes and Messrs J G McCuliough and W E Snowden composed a choir,with Miss Sadie Snowden organist, accompanied by Mr Thomas Chandler on the violin. Kev L t, Peeler spoke entertainingly to the children for a short while. At the close of the exercises the crowd was invited to assemble at . specially arranged tables,one for the grown folk, the other for the little people. It seems that it is unnecessary to speak of the "bountiful supply of good things" or the customary "spread of gastronomic edibles," or even that which "tempts the appetite of the most fastidious," for it goes without saying that Cedar Swamp never fails. The tables were burdened with these things. Thoughtful and ever ready to assist in giving the visitors and home people a pleas ant time.Mr Oilie Epps prepared and dispensed lemonade and ice-water to the thirsty crowd. It has been the custom in the afternoon to interesi the lovers of sport by having a visiting ball team to line up against the locals. In this particular instance Kingstree appeared for the contest. Mr Julian Hanna was requested to umpire the game. Both Kingstree and Benson were anxious to get the ball in motion, so as to quickly guess the winning side. Here is the way the score card appeared: Kingstree,8; Benson, 11. W E S. Mrs. R. B. Marshall Dead. Morrisville, June 22:?Died, Sunday, June 14, at 5:20 p. m., Mrs R B Marshall. She was about sixty-nine years old. Although she had been in failing health for more tnan a year, and the end was not wholly unexpected, it cast a shadow of gloom over the entire community. She was a faithful wife and loving mother, always striving for the things which were for the betterment of those around her. Being a faithful member of Elim Methodist church from youth, she attended services regularly until feeble health prevented. She is survived by her husband and six children: Messrs W A and R W Marshall of Andrews; Dr J L Marshall of Charleston; MesdamesR J Ferdon and R F Wooten of Andrews and J R Lovvrimore of Honey Hill. Three brothers and three sisters are also left to mourn their loss. The interment took place Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock at Elim church in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends. Well may it be said: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joys of thy Lord." SbakS Of/ Your Rheumatism. Now is the time to get rid of jf>ur rheumatism.
