< A year ago? | almost unknown I Today ? a leader J A sweeping verdid - * Death of Mrs. Korah Gist. j < ?" i; Salters, R. F. D., May 15.?This j community was saddened early Tues- j day, May 9th, when news was spread ' announcing the death cf this good lady. She was in her usual health until Sunday afternoon, when she was , "> stricken very sudden with acqute in- . < digestion. Dr. I. N.^ Boyd was sum- ( moned and found her condition fatal, j * This good doctor and loved ones did;J ell in ther power but their efforts were j1 vain. She Lad been a sufferer for ( many years, out up until Sunday was 3 iile to attend church and visit around I and attend to light house duties. She suffered greatly in those few 5 hours of her illness. At 10 o'clock Monthly night the death angel came ' and,welcomed hev to the golden show. * She was one of the oldest members ' of St. Paul's Baptist church. She 5 was a devoted mother and wife, an 5 affect onate relative and friend, a 1 good woman, kind hearted, peace loving and friendly to all. She lived to * the ripe age of 75 years. She is 3 survived by thr^e children: Mrs. B. 5 E. Swetman of Charleston; Mrs. J. ( C. Tycen and Mr. J. M. Gist of this ' community, also 10 grand-children.,5 Mrs. Gist was buried on the.same.' plantation on which she was raised, 1 in a plot which is known as the Rich- ^ burg cemetery. js The deceased is survived by two * brothers, B. N. Richburg cf Charlotte, 5 N. C.P and J. E. Richburg of Greely- 1 ville; two sisters, Mesdames M. L. 1 Lockleair tgid J. J. Timmons, both of | ? Greelyville. Funeral services took 1 place at the home at 4 o'clock Tues- 1 cay, conducted by the Rev. Funder- 1 burk of Greelyville. Interment followed in the family cemetery by the side of her husband. The out pouring of relatives and friends attested in some slight degree the esteem in 1 which the deceased was held. The 1 grave was banked with beautiful, * floral designs. 1 :1 j? "Club Work." t . i> (By Myrtle Cantley) I think that every boy and girl j who has the chance to join a club , of any kind should grasp the opportunity at once without a minutes hes- j itatiorx, such a wonderful organization { for boys and girls, yet so many ab-jt solutely refuse to join any of them. ( Join some of the clubs, go to work j j with the vim and determination to ] win and success will surely be yours,' ? . get others interested in your com- j munity, work together and see what t you can accomplish. . N Some say oh, I haven't got time to bother with that county agent and her foolery, I can't neglect my work at, < home and I am jwt going to learn | nnvfViincv T pan (w>lf anH and can some too. All of this may be c true but, listen, We don't have the j methods of doing our work that the c * * clubs offer. The club work teaches, responsibility and economy also. Take 1 -] for instance the home demonstration j f club, its course of training seems to, me is as good as four years in any | school. In the course of canning you! learn so many new receipts each j demonstration, that the agent gives. *. In the other subjects that are taught you also learn lots and lots of things | that you wouldn't know if you hadn't c been a member of this club and at-! j tended all the meetings and studied : the literature that is given from time j to time. I myself am a four year club member and will say that, under the effi-j f cient supervision of Miss McMurray,! s have learned very much indeed. And a only regret that I had not joined earlier than I did. I may be wrong but I believe that the club girls and o boys of today will be the leading p men and women of tomorrow. So S agarettes . t for QUALITY ^???f :ome on jfirls and boys and lets try ind keep the "motto" to make the :est, better up to the standard, o Sooks to Remain Open Until June 1. Columbia, May 8.?Although over 120,000 bales have already been sign?d up and the original quota was >nly 400,000, officials of the South Carolina Cotton Growers' Cooperative Association announce that the books will be k jpt open until June 1 and )pportunity given those who have not ,>et joined to affiliate with the organization. It is expected that at east 500,000 bales will have been signed up by June 1. The campaign to sign up 400,000 ..ales by May 1 is declared by many ;o have been one of the greatest rampaigns ever waged in South Caromd there has been much jubiliation imong those interested in the movenent over the wjnderful victory won. "The larger the percentage of crop ;he association signs, the more effective will be the results obtained,'' ^ays a statement issued by the association in announcing a continuance >f the campaign. "Those who do not sell their cotton through the association sell in' competition with the association and against us. Naturaly we want to get every bale in the association we can because it helps ;he situation for the farmers of the -tate that much. We believe that ;here are many farmers who are now ready to sign up. They will have the jpportunity during the next three veeks of lining up with their brother farmers instead of lining up against ;hem." News From Indiantown.
