Rally Day a Success.
Education Week for Williamsburg
ounty came to a close on Saturday i
nth the Rally Day exercises at the '
Cingstree school auditorium. .While 1
he crowd wa& not as large as was
xpected, it was a very interesting .
neeting. Talks were made by Messrs.
'. W. Swittenberg, M. F. Mont;omery,
Frank Hawkins, P. H. Stoll
md S. A. Graham. All the speakers ,
impressed the importance of educaion,
and discussed the special needs
if Wlliamsburg county. The keyiote.
of the meeting seemed to be the
inancial situation of the schools in
1
he county. Ana tne one outsuuiu- ,
ng feature of the meeting was the
itatement by Hon. S. A. Graham,
enator-elect < from Williamsburg
ounty, when he said that the peo>le
could depend upon it that the
chools of the county would not be
losed on account of the lack of funds.
In the poster contest, Greelyville
eon first place, and KingStree second.
Music was furnished by some pu>ils
of the Kingstree school and b
drs. Wilmot Gilland, which was very
nuch enjoyed.
At the conclusion of the exercises
he crowd moved to the fair grounds,
vhere they were served with a deicious
barbecue dinner.
The faithful, unselfish men and
vomen who gave liberally of their
ime and energy for the success <
iducation week in the county'deserve

About a score of friends were incited
to attend an afternoon party
it the home of Mrs. J. D. Britton,
)ut the nature of the affair was kept
entirely secret. When the guests had
ill arrived they were given a letter
supposed to be written by one school
jirl to another and each guest was
tlso piesented with a card-board
eading glass to better enable them
x> discover the sentence hidden in
he letters and which contained an
mnouncement of good news. Mrs^

of Dr. F. 0. Lentz. Congratllutions
and many wishes for the ;

Each guest was then given a heartshaped
booklet and told to write
herein instructions for the future
)ride as to how to be happy thour
narried. These were all collectec
ind read aloud amidst rrftich merrinent.
The judges appointed to de- j
rfde as to which suggestion was
Severest announced that Mrs. Har y
Britton and Mrs. J. W. Switten (
>erg had tied, and afj^^uttj^^fr
he prize, Mrs. Hari^Hmton was
lecleared winner.
A salad course, followed by sweets
n heart shape appropriate to the oc
asion, was served in the dinning
oom. The table was beautifully dec)rated,
and at one end stood a minia;ure
bride with flowing veil, and at
V
i -
the other end a gift for the biide,
a set of coasters.
Miss McFadden and Dr. Lentz are
both exceedingly popular and widely
