JONES VILLE Jonesville, May 22.?The commencement exercises of the graded and high schools came off Thursday and Friday nights with a beautiful and impressive program mixed with much sympathy and feeling, especially with the teachers and large pupils, The fond and loving ties that have been formed during the last few years that must now be severed perhaps never to be united in this life were referred to by some of the sweet girl graduates brought the unbidden tear to many eyes in the audience. Yes, it doesn't take a bunch of sweet school girls long to get in love with each other (or with the other fellow for that matter) and the parting is always sad. Yes, I well remember the most 4-U-A. T J - ' - ouuiiu&s cutti/ jl uver wiuicssuu at one time was the parting of the Confederate soldiers at. General Lee's surrender at Appomattox, Va., on the 9th of April, 1865. It was there that so many soldiers that had been associated together for so long that had to part, many of them never to see ea:h other again. Strong men wept like tender women. Dr. Harms of Newberry college delivered the address, a very strong and feeling one, to the graduates and of course he widened out and took the whole situation, paying his respects to the great European war, which of course concerns us all. It-seems to me I have lost more relatives and friends than most anyone else for I nave been here so long? "The flowers that I saw in the wild wood Have since drooped their beautiful leaves; Have slumbered for years in theii graves. Oh, the bloom of the flowers I remember But the faces I never more shall see For the cold chilly winds of December Stole my flowers, my companions from me." The Washington reunion is drawinp near and as it draws near the Confederate Veterans keep backing out from going; fact is, the "old boys" are nearly all out of it. A 5000 mile trip in hot weather for more than a week is more than a 70 to 80-year-old "boy" can stand. I have made some preparation to go but am about to back out. Mr. and Mrs. H. L.

Tin *1 uiisB mary rosier 01 W nice fttone IS the guest of Mrs. Sallie Southard this week. The Methodist church here was dedicated Sunday, according to appointment. The day was an ideal one and the people came from all parts of the country. Columbia, Carlisle, Union, Cross Anchor, West Springs, Kelton. Pacolet, Spartanburg, Landrum and all the intermediate neighborhoods were represented with all denominations and it was so nice to "behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to worship together in uni ty." Bishop Denny stood for one hou* and twenty-five minutes and he had the closest attention all the time. 1 have not heard a single person saji he preached too long or that theji were tired when he took his seat. The auditorium and Sunday school room were packed with about 600 people but they were comfortable. The presentation of the church was made to the bishop by tbe officers of the church who stood in front of the chancel and all in concert spoke the following sentence: "We present you this house t? he set apart from all unhallowed 01 common uses for the worship of Almighty God." The choir sang beautifully from the church hymnal and the privilege to sing was open, to all. The preacher's theme was "Love," the love _ i? n r n* 11 i? ? - - ui mary iviapueiene nispiayecl at ttif Savior's tomb when she went early ir the morning to seek her crucified Lord Rev. J. A.

You reckless men and women whc are pestered with corns and who hav< at least once a week-invited an awfu death from lockjaw or blood poisor are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drup: called freezone, whicl the moment a few drops are appliec to any corn or callus the soreness is re lieved and soon the entire corn or callus, root and all, lifts off with the finprers. Freezone dries the moment it is ap plied, and simply shrivels the com 01 callus without inflaminpr or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin A small bottle of froe-*ori?? will Anol very little at any of the drug stores but will positively rid one's feet ol every hard or soft corn or hardenec callus.

It is getting hot and I dry now and a shower of rain would i be acceptable for the pardon vegeta' bles and other things. The day is the 21st of May. I sec some farmers are plantinp over their i cotton and 'I see a few thinninp out ! This look* a little stranpe, but it is ! the case nevertheless. There are four farmers in this community plantinp ' over and I see most everywhere 1 ; have been there is more or less cotton beinp planted over. The prospect for cotton at this time is the worst 1 ever saw at this time of year. Witht out a preat chanpe cotton will bring a pood price apain if the other cotton > States are like we are. T i? 1 -1-/* - ^ i si-e iouu siun is a nixie on in price. I don't know whether it has affected > the market yet. We see the move 1 that President Wilson has taken in this matter of hiph prices seems to have done some pood. Just as I said, ' too much speculation. Tf man would obey God's laws better there wouldn't be so much of this. I noticed in a show window somewhere six Irish Potatoes I think it was for an automobile. Now we are fretting independent of that hifrh price; i we are petting them from our own vines. Isn't it nice to have something i at home and live and worship undei 1 our own vine and fip tree? I never told you how I catch or kill moles. They were so bad in my parden it looked as if there would be nothinp there but mole hills, so I pot a mole trap. I thoupht that would pet him, but he pot so smart somehow he found out where the trap was and he would make another road, so 1 bepan to watch for him like a cat would for a rat or mouse. So I pot the hoe and I saw him pushinp ur 1 the pround, and I went for him wit! the hoe, but I did not pet him, and 1 then tried the axe and the next tim? I missed him, and then I pot the pur , and when I saw him pushinp up thf [ pround apain I took aim and fired and ! I killed him. You can kill them it , they pet into your parden if you watcli ' for them like I did. They are early . risers; they begin to move about sur . up. I attended the dedication of tbt .Tonesville church Sunday. There were many people present, many from different counties, but the only Metho, dist preachers present were Rev. Mr Cook and Rev. Mr. Justice. Rev. L M Pipp Aiir , VU1 VVilVVI U1IU a J ?C4 j; l/l I . preacher, was also present. Bishop Denny preached a forcible sermon and kept his hearers one houi and twenty-five minutes. Everyone I listened attentively. I was told 'he ? seating capacity was about five hundred and they were all full and many ' stoexl around. j I was in Spartanburg last week and , attended the Firemen's association They all made a good show; the racI ing was at the fair grounds. The Un. ion boys did well in,racing and jumping and connecting the water through the hose. We met Mr. Wharton ol I Union, who is the wide-awake mayor of that city, with the Union boys r looking after their interests. , While in Spartanburg I stopped a1 , several homes of people who moved | from Union county.
