Hot Snpper, March 31st.
There will be a hot supper at Gamble
s&ool house Friday night, March
31, for benefit of base ball club.
Public cordially invited.
Car Operators Attacked.
When the Columbia Railway, Gas
and Electric Company attempted to
operate three of its street cars Mon
day, idle since February 15, because
of a strike of motormen and conductors,
oper warfare was waged.
Four men engaged in operating the
cars, received minor injuries from
two separate attacks on cars and four
men, three cf them strikers, were
placed under arrest for assault and
battery with intent to kill, and warrants
were sworn out for a member
of other strikers, all alleged to
have been implicated in the attacks.
Wsat to Say at Funerals.
"Should a minister officiating at a
funeral speak of the bad points in
the life of his subject?" asked the
Charlotte Observer which then answers
its own question with "Certainly
not, but there is no reason
wh/ he should lay on the praise too
thick." The Observer quotes L. E.
Huggins writing in the Monroe
Journal, as saying the preachers
should not tell the unpleasant things
a txsrson may have been guilty of.
"It would do nobody any good but
would make the relatives and friends
cf the deceased feel badly at a time
they are most in need of comfort,"
and the Observer says "we arc with
liini a train when lie contends that
there is no good in parading the
weak places in a person's life at any
time, much less at a funeral.'"
Of course, that's the right line of
talk,, but is there rnyone to start an
argument over it? Ministers?and
others?are not in the habit of walking
up to a man and addressing him
as ''chief bootlegger," or "the most
daring chicken thief in our town."
No. Then, why speak of such things
over his dead body?when he can't
fight?
The truth is we fail too often to
recognize the good qualities of our
neighbors and associates; only their
5 faults are seen and we forget the
injunction to "judge not that ye be
not judged." Certainly when a man
dies we can afford to forget his faults,
and if we can remember a time when
he picked up a crippled bird or did
some other kindness, it's all right
to tell about it.
We see nothing amiss in the minister
"laying on praise" of the deceased,
(we take it forgrantcd he
will not exceed the well-defined
bounds), but the Observer suggests
that this is sometimes overdone.
And in its contention it quotes Huggins
as relating an incident that came
under his observation "when a minister
was preaching a deceased brother
to mansions in the skies." This
brother's life had been anything but
exemplary, and after awhile an older
brother arose from the back in the
church and made his way to the front.
As he approached, the preacher waved
him back with his hand and exclaimed,
"Sit down, brother, you may
jcview the remains after I have finished."
To this the old gentleman
replied: "1 just wanted to see if you
weren't burying the wrong man."?

The place was Iowa. The time,
half a century ago.
But now?
"Times surely have changed."
Herbert Quick, noted writer and
authority on fanning, was speaking.
He lived through the pioneer period
and knew.
"It was the days of small things,
tout mighty forces. The beautiful
prairie was turned into a prosy, self
satisfied wealthy agricultural state.
"When I was a boy, an Iowa farm
hand working for two or three years
at $25 a month could save enough to
buy his own farm. Land values were
low. He could get a place for $2
an acre.
"Now the man who buys a farm is
crushed under debt Values are high.
He is charged $300 an acre?and usually
owes $200.
"fru:? r\-t Vm'itV, valllAC nnH
X Ills CUliVUVlvll Vi tu^u ?*??
the necessity of the poorer fanner to
rent his land have created the hard
times.
"Until the Agricultural population
is able to get some surplus wealth
to buy with?it will be in hard
straits."
How to get this surplus?
Mr. Quick shrugged his shoulders.
"Anyone seeking to ameliorate the
condition of the people both on the
farm and in the city," he said,
thoughtfully, "should turn his attention
to the shifting of taxes from
things that we eat and wear to land
values?which are esentially common
property?in order that the vicious
tendency to increase these values may
be checked."
THAT BAD BACK
Do you have a dull, steady ache in
the small of the back?sharp, stabbing
twinges when stooping or lifting?distressing
urinary disorders ?
For bad back and weakened kidneys
Kingstree residents recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills. Read this Kingstree
statement
Mrs. R. W. Speigner, 310 Railroad i
Ave., says: "Doan's Kidney pills are
the best kidney remedy I have used.
Net long ago my kidneys were not
acting right and their irregular action
caused my back to feel weak.
I noticed a tender spot in the small
of my back. My limbs felt heavy as
though a weight were tied about my
knees pulling me down. I had a tired,
languid feeling and felt rather depressed.
Doan's Kidney pills bought
at Scott's Drug Store made me feel
better in every way."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't

I Mrs. Epps Entertained.
Mrs. G. Ollie Epps and number
cf her friends were delightfully enteitained
Wednesday afternoon, 15th
inst., by the former's daughter, Miss
Hazel Epps. Notwithstanding the
fact that the invitations to this
"birthday party" were issued a week
in advance, the guests arrived at the
appointed time as a complete surprise
to Mrs. Epps; and a gentleman
who. happened to be present expressed
his wonder that the "lady-folks
had kept the secret so long." (He must
have been familiar with man's tendency
to tell tales out of school!)
A full half-hour was spent on a
contest?a love story with some two
cozen blanks to be filled out with
names of fic-wers, and of fruit. This
was thoroughly enjoyed. Mrs. J. W.
Jcnes took this piize. Then an easier
task was to see who couid form
the greatest number of words using
the letters in the name, Juanita.
Mrs. Epps herself took the lead,
forming sixteen.
The refreshments, consisting of
ambrosia, caramel and pound cake,
which were prepared by Mrs. W. B.

to say that they were delicious.
A number of nice and us?fu' gifts
were received.
