C. L. and labor situation we 1 have read recently. It expresses the views of this newspaper to a great extent, and will possibly be of interest to its readers. * The colored fair opened Tuesday t despite the inclement weather, and ^ The County Record extends congratolations for the "don't give up" spirit shown by the managers, when in a steady rain Tuesday morning the baud wagon and one well-prepared float bearing the phrase "We Lead; Others Follow", formed in front of the courthouse and paraded to the grounds without even an umbrella for a shelter. The fair last week was a success, but unfortunately The Record has not been furnished a list of the prize winners in any |of the various departments. We would like to publish these, but we haven't the time to look them up with our limited force. Besides, The Record was nov even furnished with a complimentary ticket with which to present a friend to go out and gather the necessary data. Qf course this was a mere oversight on the part of the management, and we have no hard feelings in the matter. o T: Mr. J. C. Kin.ier, Kingstrre, is dedared Presidential Prognosticator facile princepa, for he won the $10.00 I offered some time ago to the one guessing nearest how the several States would vote in tko recent presidential election. Mr. Kinder guessed Harding 302, Cox 229. Most of the other guesses were entirely too Democratic, in all probability, desire overruling reason. Wm . W. Boddie, Kingstree, S. C. It. o LITTLE GIRL KILLED Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ike Appelt Struck by Automobile. Little Eliza Appelt, the seven year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. I. Appelt, was struck by an automobile last Friday and fatally injured. The ear was driven4 by Mr. Stzwait Pow?1L Physicians were imm?diaaely summoned and it was then discovered that her condition was precarious, but it was determined to try to take her to the Sumter hospital, hoping tliat an operation might save her life. The party left for Sumter about three o'clock in the afternoon, but just as the city limits of Sumter wa? reached, she passed away. The funeral services were held at r>?/?Vinrrh Sundav mom . vie rreaujrw-wu. ? ing at half past ten o'clock, conducted bjfcher pastor, the Rev. L. B. McCord. The attendance was one of the largest had at a funeral in Manning in many years; the church being filled to its capacity, many having to star.d. The interment was in the Manning c.metery. School Notes YV The week past has been one of en joyment ami merriment to all atjtendants of our school. Three days iwere given for the fair. Thursday. ; educational day, was the day of days. ? I The tloat was very attractive and the F( I parade good, although we did not win 1 first place there, we made a credit- j | able showing.
