COLORED SCHOOLS
HOLD FIELD DAY.
Macbeth Street School I'lace of Meeting.?Fine
Attendance?Many
Good Features.
Union county colored teachers held
their Field Day Friday, March 24th.
It was a grand success "from every
point of view.
By 10 o'clock a great host of people
had gathered at Macbeth Street
school, where the exercises were held.
There were teachers, pupils, ministors
and patrons from every section
of the county and many distinguished
visitors from other parts.
Promptly at 10 o'clock the meelthg
was called to order by A. A. Sims,
president of the association, and devotion
was conducted by the local pastors.
An hour was then given the
pastors and visitors for brief addresses.
Their remarks were interesting
and they encouraged the work.
At 11 o'clock County Superintendent
of Education J. H. Hope and City
Superintendent of Education Davis
Jeffries came in and after listening to
a brief musical program prepared by
Macbeth Street school they both rriade
strong addresses that were interesting
and helpful to the people at large. The
audience as a whole was filled with
enthusiasm and felt much encouraged.
Among the visitors who made
strong addresses was C. C. Spalding I
of Durham, N. C.p one of the leading
business negroes of America. He
electrified the audience both day and
night.
Splendid delegations came from Columbia,
Spartanburg, Newberry, Chester
and Cherok*. many of whom
spoke and added great effect to the occasion.
There wore f>0 teachers present and
half of the schools in the county were
well represented in the school exhibits.
The exhibits were large and1 very
excellent. The needle work and drawings
were special features.
Macbeth Street school had a large
exhibit in all department but in
points of excellency Jonesville, Carem,
Carlisle, Santuck, Maple Ridge, Sedalia
and Red Point shared the high
honors.
At 2 o'clock a large reception was
given the visitors by the patrons of
Union.
In the afternoon the athletics were
held in West Union, where the crowd
went in a line of march with hundreds
of children in line. Union and
Jonesville divided honors even. The
occasion was closed 1IV u mncipal nrn.
gram at night by the teachers.
SANTUC
Santuc, March 29.This town was
visited by a big fire Monday night,
when the graded school house was
completely destroyed. This happened
or was discovered at or near midnight.
Not a thing in the building
was saved. A new piano had just
been installed, and was lost. Quite a
number of chairs and perhaps some
of them belonging to the Camp of the
Koodmen of the World who had loaned
the n as an entertainment was soon
to have been held by the school.
There is no fire fighting apparatus
here, and after a fire gets a good
start there is no chance to extinguish
it, and on this occasion many never
knew of the fire until it had burned
out. An old barn several hundred
yards away caught, hut was saved,
hut the leaves in the grove around the
Baptist church caught about a dozen
times. I understand there was insurance
on the building. No one is
sure how the fire originated. The
stove flues were good. There was a
rehearsal that afternoon, until late,
and, more than one thinks it might
have been from cigarette smoking,
because anywhere, any time, any place,
in anybody's company, it is fashionable
and they may drop a cinder down.
In all probability this will bring the
school here to a close for this session,
though I have not heard from the
trustees or teachers. There were before
this, plans for building a new
and more modern building and that
may be ready for the next session.
Farmer's work was being retarded,

of the ground, until last SaturL

day when a rain fell. It was very 5
hard in some places and hail fell fast
for a short while.
It is not possible yet to tell whether
the cold has killed all peaches and
plums. It has been cold, certainly, on
fruit. The temperature went down
to one day in March to 20 degrees and
several times to 23 days.
If Villa is so, or has been, intent .
on killing "Gri'ngoes," why doesn't he 1
turn around and kill a few more. He
has a good chance. Hey Denver.

" AN OBITUARY.
Adamsburg, S. C., March 28, 1916.
Whereas, by the tragic hand of
accident, Sovereign F. M. Adams was
stricken suddenly and unto death on
the 6th of March, 1916; and
Whereas his acfiHpnt. and dpnth has
come as terrible shock, to his family, |
to his community, to his county and >
to his fellow Sovereigns; therefore
Be it resolved, That we bow in
humble submission to an inscrutable
Providence, which our finite reason 1
cannot comprehend and yet an un- \
shakable faith tells us is overruled
by a God too wise to err, and too good !
to deal harshly.
That our dearest sympathies and
tenderest concern go out to the beI
reaved wife and fatherless children
in their terrible loss and sorrow.
That from association of long
standing, as neighbor, friend and
brother Sovereign, we, tool, feel a
deep and personal loss, and wo. would
not be true to his memory and the
life that he lived, if we did not bear
testimony that in his death our county 1
has lost one of its best citizens, our
Camp has lost one of its worthiest
sovereigns, and all of us who livea
near him have lost one of our best J
neighbors. ,
Finally, we commend his spirit to j
God from whence it came and pray :
that his mantle mav fall nnnn hes>rt?
and shoulders worthy to hear it, and i
that a copy of these resolutions be
presented to his loved ones, and published
in The Union Times.
