CHILDREN'S WEEK AT LANE
Children's Week was observed at
Lane during the week April 27 to
May 4. Much credit is due Mrs. Edwin
McDonald as leader, assisted
: by the various committees, for the
wonderful success achieved.
On Wednesday evening the
"Child's Division Conference," was
held in the Methodist church, Mr.
Deery, of Kingstree, gave a very instructive
talk, which was very much
enjoyed by those present, and we
feel sure there has been and will be
much good resulting therefrom.
On Friday afternoon an icecream
party was given to the children on
the Methodist church lawn, and was
enjoyed , by at least 100 children and
many grown folks. Mrs. 6. E. McKnight,
assisted by a large number
of ladies served ice cream and cake
to the children which added much
- * ** ~v;i
enjoyment to tne occasion, mc umdren
played various games and all
had a wonderfully good time.
The pageant was presented on
Sunday evening in the Methodist
church. It was also a great success.
The church was well filled by a veryappreciative
audience. Most of the
parts were taken by the children of
the Sunday Schools, and they deserve
much credit for the way in
which the theme of the play brought
out "The Rights of the Child." We
are sure no one in the audience
could but help appreciate their efforts,
and we hope it will make
them more determined than ever to
assist in the development of the
Christian education of children.
The music was in charge of Mrs.
Lois Cornette, Mrs. Edwin McDonald,
Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Rodgers,
Mrs. Claude Shirer and Miss Alyce
Connor, having trained the performers.

METHODIST CAMPAIGN t
! A Summons to All Methodists to
Attend Church Next Sunday |
j The hour has come?God's hour ^
and man's hour. Other churches are
also planning to observe ,this hour
but on a smaller scale, but the world I
is challenged to observe the dignity j
of the observance of Methodism !
which at once celebrates a hundred j
years of organized missionary effort i
and the close of the world's war. <
Before peace was planned we were ;
preparing to share in the campaign j
to follow the great war by a worthy !
campaign with Christ as our lead- | <
?? I ? 1.1--JI L !
er 10 extend nis Kingdom inruugn- |
out a sorrowing world. It was to be
a campaign of thanksgiving, of J
consecration, of reenforcement, of .
reconstruction. It implied the fol- ,
lowing up the plowshare of war
with the seed basket and the sickle
of peace. Every mission field at
home and abroad made its askings
in the light at once of its needs and
of its opportunities. With the New j
Testament now in six hundred lan
guages we feel that the time is ripe !
for our church to send out fivehun- r
dred additional missionaries in the j
next five years. What heroes they j
follow, fit though few, in the great c
mission fields which have been pioneered.
Our conquering Lord has c
opened the world to us to occupy in s
His name, has guarded the seas, t
has shortened the distances until t
now the world has become a great j
neighborhood where the watchman ?
can see eye to eye. ^
Let the campaign which opens on s
May 18th be ushered in by a great
Church-going Sunday that shall fill ?
all our churches, both with crowds t
of worshiper's and the spirit of *
faith and prayer. It is our Lord who j
summons us to meet Him in the
place of worship. Let ours be the
church's answer to His gracious call h
for service. He is mobilizing His t
array. Let the foundations of hell r

SUMTER SUFFERS FIRE LOSS
Flames Cause Fifty Thousand Dollar
Loss
I Sumter, May 13.?The Penn Sumi
ter Lumber Company suffered serii
<nis loss by fire Monday night the
i damages to the plant having been
estimated at $50,000. Near midnight
the watchman discovered a fire in
the dust house and the fire continued
to burn until four o'clock in the
morning. The alarm was turned in
and the fire department worked
i steadily, by two having the fire under
control. How it originated is not
known. One portion of the plant
consisting of the saw mill, the fuel
house and the derrick house has been
entirely destroyed. The loss is practically
covered by the insurance, but
the injury to the plant will put it
out of business for probably six
month.
