Dr. Thicker and Mr. Jelks at Bishopville v
,
None can afford to plan their va
cation so that it will conflict with the
meeting to be held on the Presbyte- 1
? * i !
ri&n church grounds, Deginmux ? uijr
29 and ending August 12. This meet- [
ing will be one of great value to 1
every one who attends.
The meeting will be conducted by 1
Rev J Ernest Thacker, the assembly's
foremost evangelist. He is 1
widely known in the North as well 1
as the South. Rev J Wilbur Chap- '
man,one of the best known evangelists
in the world, says of him, "You
are to be congratulated on having
Dr Thaceer as an evangelist. He is
simply great. I do not know a man 1
in the church today in whom I have 1
more confidence."
Mr James W Jelks of Macon, Ga, 1
known as the "Sunshine" * singer, 1
will lead the singing. He is a fine J
soloist as well as choir leader. He (
hopes to have a large choir of Bishopville
singers to aid him in this part '
of the work. Mr Jelks is most wide- (
ly ane favorably known in the Bap- ]
tist church of the South. Everyone '
who enjoys good singingwill be glad ^

All the evening services will be
held in the open on the Presbyterian '
church grounds. This will be the 1
only opportunity of the year to at- '
tend a really big open air meeting. j
Plan your vacations so that you can
attend each one of these meetings. '

Dr Thacker and Mr Jelks conduct- 1
ed a two weeks meeting at the Pres- <
byterian church here in May, which 1
was a true spiritual feast. The peo- 1
pie of this community will heartily
endorse all that ie said above concerning
these gentlemen.
Mr. Whaley Champions Workingasn.
Washington, July 2:?A protest
was entered with the controller of
the treasury today by Congressman
Richard S Whaley of Charleston
against the controller's decision that
there are 360 working days in a year
instead of 313. The effect of this decision
is very serious upon the wages ,

who have received from $3.33 to
$5.76 per day. The horizontal in- ]
crease of 5 per cent to employes receiving
from $1,200 to $1,800 per
year, and 10 per cent to those receiving
less than $1,200 a year, went ]
into operation with the appropria- (
tion acts the first of this month, but \
it is contended by Congressman Wha- ,
ley and others that the controller's i
decision as to the number of working j
days practically nullifies the act of j
Congress in voting these percentage i
increases. ]
High Tribute to Mr Howie. I
It has been my pleasure to be inti- 1
mately associated in office work dur- j
ing the past four years with Mr R F

LAV/ TV IV | TT IIV AVI V f> V* w , ? >. ? ?
Jounty Treasurer. I therefore feel
that I can speak with som? degree of
authority regarding his work as a
:ounty officer.
During his entire time Mr Howie
has pushed his work; he never allowed
his work to push him, I have
[.ever seen a man'more constant or
more untiring in his official duties.
Every phase of his office work has
teen kept up to date as far as it has
been possible to be done.
In his bookkeeping I have found
him very accurate as a result of his
tireless and painstaking efforts. Of
:ourse, it is impossible for any man
to avoid errors sometimes, but Mr
Howie's errors have not been due to
lack of hard and conscientious work
and I believe he has made as few as ]
any other man in his position would ]
have made, considering the tremendous
amount of work that devolved ]
upon him.?D L Lewis in Darling. ,

Mr Howie is the father of Mrs W j
D Harrington, and has many friends
here. j
Rev L 0 McCutchen preached in 1
the Methodist church Sunday by spe- <
cial invitation of the pastor, Rev G
P Watson, who was sick. Mr McCut- ?
chen said he esteemed it a great
privilege as well as pleasure to speak
to so many of his former acquaint- i
ances. He certainly had an appreci- !
ative congregation, which heard a j
splendid gospel sermon.?|Bishop. ]
