SYNOPSIS: All phases of life are displayed in the presentation of this play, and it is a challenge to the ai best that society can hope to attain. Yet the serious by no means eclipses Ci the romantic phase of the drama. The Carpenters and Kingsleys are two ai very rich families in New York and the Kingsleys have their heart set on at an Austrian Prince as a husband for their daughter Alice, but she is heart M and soul in sympathy with the work of Howard Carpenter, who is spending his life and fortune for the uplift and happiness of the unfortunate in ,0> the alleys and hovels of the city. m Through the malicious designs of ^ Mrs. Kingsley and Robert Woolsley, all of Howard's efforts to win the heart and hand of Alice Kingsley are thwarted. He resigns to his fate and leaves New York for Georgia where S1' he intends to carry out his .projects in phllanthrophy. When Alice learns [" of the designs of her mother she refuses to marry the prince and hence the Kingsleys are humiliated jy and JMr. Kingsley has to pay $100,000 djjivfcges to the Prince, sifRobert Woolsley follows Howard Carpenter to Georgia and attempt \ to kill him in (order to inherit his fortune, but his efforts are not successful. Howard is sped over a distance of fifty miles, in his car, to Chattanooga for treatment. The Carpenters are wired and special sur geons are sent from New York to 'cs Chattanooga. Alice, hearing of the jj, affair, volunteers, in disguise, to go Sl as an expert nurse and finally gives a] her own blood to save the life of her p lover. You will see from the cast of characters that the play is piven by amateur talent, yet we believe that the s( fiublic will be pleased with the play, t consists of four acts and it will m take two hours to render it. The receipts from this play will be V( used for the enlarpement of the pub- ^ lie school library. The Union Con- C( cert Band will add to the merriment of the eveninp by renderinp appro- cf Eriate selections before the play and g etween the acts. _ j.j Winthrop College SCHOLARSHIP and ENTRANCE EXAMINATION u ai The examination for the award of vacant <&^}olarships in Winthrop Col lege an%e for the admission of new a students will be held at the County ^ Court House on Friday, July 3, at 9 a. m.

IVORCEI) PEOPLE tf IN SOUTH CAROLINA _ SHOULD NOT M.VRHY _ ccording to Opinion Express by At- _ torney General Peeples?Union County Man Questioney Attorney General. Columbia, April 29.?"In my opin- ** n divorced people are not legally ipacitated to marry in South Carona and if a license were to be isled the marriage would be bigamous nd void," said Attorney General eeples in a letter to Judge of Pro- ~ ite W. W. Johnson of Union coun- ? \ Mr. Johnson had written the atirney general that these questions imetimes came up for decision by im through people applying for ~ larriage licenses. He wanted to now if people who had been diirced in other States applied for larriage licenses in South Carolina >uld they be granted. The Union official also asked if a >uple were divorced in some other tate and one party was given the ght to remarry and the other not the latter could get a license to ~ larry in South Carolina. To all of lese questions the attorney general nswers no. "South Carolina does at allow divorces to be granted in _ lis State under the constitution, nd it has been clearly decided in the ise of McCreery vs. Davis, 44 S. C. 95, that this State will not recogize divorces granted in other v tates," says the attorney general. The letter of the attorney general > Judge of Probate Johnson of Inion says: "I am in receipt of yours of the 7th inst. in which you ask for an pinion as to whether a marriage cense should be granted to one who . as been married and divorced in an- " ther State, and two other questions s to the production of the certified apy of the decree of divorce, which rill be answered by the opinion on tie first question asked. "South Carolina does not allow ivorces to be granted in this State g nder the constitution, and it has een clearly decided in the case of *] IcCreery vs. Davis, 44 S. C. 195, that liis State will not recognize divorces ranted in other States. Before you an issue a marriage license the paries have to make an affidavit seting out among other things that hey are legally capacitated to v larry in South Carolina and if such license were to be issued the mar- p iage would be bigamous and void." p Hawkins Draws Long Sentence. i .
