The D. A. R. Industrial school at
! Georgetown has been closed to avoid
' an epidemic of flu among the children
and Miss Anne Tolley, matron, returned
to her home here yesterday.
Latest information is that KingsI
tree is to have a large tobacco curing
: plant ready for operation this coming
season. If this is tiue work will
be begun on the plant without delay.
Dr. Chas. K. Hurts, of Columbia,
1
and general secretary of the 75 mil!
lion campaign recently held by the
Southern Baptist, will preach at the
BaDtist church here Sunday morning
and night.
The County Teachers association
will meet next Saturday, February
7th. at 12 o'clock at the school auditorium,
Kingstree. All teachers of the
county are urged to attend as there
is much business of importance to be
considered.
It was necessary to cut off the
regular water supply several days this
week it! order to l. ako some needed
rep.;'/ i?? plant . Water was
turned on for half hou- at a. m..
and again at o p. m. The repairs will
be completed today, it is thought.
Mr. P. C. Karl, of New Canaan,
Conn., one of the largest Buick automobile
distributors in the country was
a guest of "Deacon" John Burgess
last week. It was Mr. Karl's first trip
South, and he is highly pleased with
cfWinn of South Carolina and the
open hearted hospitality of our people.
We felt that it would not be pertinent
to ask if he could kill birds, after the
Deacon had told us about Mr. Wolfel's
prowess with the gun.
The Newbury Realty and Auction
Co., sold here yesterday the lots advertised
in The Record last week as
the Logan-Hemingway property on
Mill street, for Messrs. S. J. ifeery
and Harry Britton. owners. The sale
was a success, judging from the
prices the lots brought. Those in
charge of the sale seemed to know
their business thoroughly. The band
was composed of exceptionally good
musicians.
A meeting of Kingstree business
men was held a few nights ago in the
interest of the new hotel project. At
the meeting Mr. Dutft, a well known
hotel man of Darlington was present,
and as an outcome of the meeting, it
is probable that this very important
proposition will materialize into
something more than hot air. Kingstree
certainly cannot expect to press
forward and keep pace with sister
towns without an up-to-now hotel.
Mr. Fred J. Wolfel, president of the
New Kngland Artesian Well and Water
Supply Co., of New Canaan, Conn.,
who has been spending a few weeks
with Mr. John Burgess, on his annual
hunting trip, left last Saturday for
home. He reported having had a most
delightful time here with the "Deacon"
who informs us that Mr. Wolfel comes
nearer getting his lawful limit of
birds "than all the rest of the Northkiinfovc
u'Kn tn this pom
munity." Mr. Wolfel has been a regular
subscriber to The County Record
for more than ten years, and before
leaving for the Nutmeg state Saturday,
paid our office a visit and commended
The Record in very appreciative
terms.
Serious Accident at Cades
About 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Dessie Flagler, a young man
about 24 years old, engaged in a garage
at Cades was seriously if not
fatally injured at the railroad crossing
at the Cades depot. Mr. Flagler
was driving his car across the track
when it was struck by an extra North
bound passenger train. The car was
completely demolished and Mr. Flagler
was dragged some distance along
the track among the wreckage of his
car before the train could be brought
to a standstill.
