The picture ^^dpserves the commendation it is re-1 BKeiving, for undoubtly it was the best ^^Bver seen here both in realistic and T j^^n^ginary features. It brought as at gie times into the fiercest furry of the t battle fronts and again into the flowery dells of romance and love. Installation of the magnificient L pipe organ at the Methodist church mol here is about co npleted, though the th instrument will rot be ready for use / next Sunday we understand. It has : L ^ been suggested by a prominent citi-1 S ' zen and leading member of the Meth- and odist church that an organ recital be _g given when the work of installation J3 is completed. The idea is to have a [ I known organist engaged for the ision and invite ail iocal talent to ? 1 part in a specially arranged ;ical program. This would indeed i treat to the music lovers of the t munity and we hope the sugges- i materializes. I n Monday a meeting of land ownin the Kingstree drainage district held at Moore's Cross Roads in e interest of the swamp drainage 1 position which has oeen a que*- < of much consideration. It appears n what we can learn of the meetdifinite steps wee taken in the c it direction. Engineer P. G. Gour-, was engaged to make a survey 2 he district along with an estimate 1 ;he cost of the proposed drainage I il, this report to be submitted December 25. The district embraces j at 40,000 acres of land including ' $ entire water shed of the Kings- i* swamp. Mr. Gourdin is already j, vork on the great project. | c 1 E inding it impossible to buy pork j * s in Williamsburg county at 17c e pound on foot. H. A.

The shipment c bed Kingstree Tuesday and the' ( s are reported as of excellent t lity, and in good condition. We a n that our farmers want, and are ling their marketable hogs for * the pound and upward. Today I r are quoted on the Chicago mar-; b the largest in the world, at 13.50 14.15 per hundred; and in Newj k at 13.75 and 14.00. Why should e expect double the market value ? j S heriff Wade, of Quitman, Ga., was Kingstree last week on official I ness, and left on train 89 Friday! 8 it with his prisoner, John Peter- g a negro, wanted in Georgia, it: g lleged, for forgery.
