Mayesvllle. April 8.?The butldio<?
boom that struck town during hist
spring and summer will probably be
continued this year. The handsome
residence of Mayor Womble hus junt
been completed. Robert A. Chand?
ler, one of the leading merchants
here. Is preparing to build a modern,
brick store on the site of his present
frame building. Part of his store has
already been torn away In order to
facilitate the moving of the building
to make r?,?>m for the contemplated
I
improvemets. Work will be underway
by May 1. There will be some more
building- In the business section of
town if all reports are correct. Work
will probably begin soon on the new
depot of the Atlantic Coast Line. Quite
j a lot of painting is being done since
' the advent of spring and some prem?
ises are greatly improved.
Farming operations are taking on
signs ol life since the good weather
has come and much plowing Is being
done on all sides. A great many of
the planters have finished planting
corn and some are commencing to
plant cotton this week. The reduc?
tion in acreage will shorten this part
of the farm work and many will be
through planting within a short time.
There will probably be more grain
raised around here than In a good
number of years. The oat crop is
very flourishing at present.
Mayesville will send a good delega?
tion to the unveiling eeremonies and
musical festival in Columbia this
week if all attend who are speaking of
taking the trip over to the capitol
city.
The Presbytery of Harmony will
meet in its spring session tomorrow
at Lynchburg. The Mayesville church
will be represented by Rev. H. A.

ception in honor of their guest, Miss

is also a student at the College for
Women. A large numbor of the
young; people attended the reception |
and a moat enjoyable evening was j
spent at the hospitable and beautiful '
home of Mrs. S. L. May es. A delic?
ious salad course with coffee was serv?
ed. Fruit punch was dispensed dur?
ing the evening.
Mr. F. G. White of Marion was in

A lady physician, Dr. Lindsay Wyn
koose, a Chicago mother, in an ad?
dress before the National Congress
of Mothers, recently at St, Louis, ie
clared that the next President of the
United States should have a woman
as a member of the cabinet. We do
not know whether Mrs. Woodrow Wil?
son would care to serve, but we sug?
gest her name to the next President
as he might feel a delicacy in going
outside the family for a lady cabinet
adviser.?Wilmington Star.
