her trip. R
Miss Hattie Waiters one of Co- T

inj^B much talk and fuss about ti
th^^world's largest city, decided P
that there is no better time than fii
now, than to see this much talked ti
about j>lac?, so she and her sister tl
wlthr bags all packed, caught the H
ital City of South Carolina, and B
rode ijito New York. My! what ni
a jgf\cQ it turned out to be. Mil- H
lions of people, tall buildings, f<
subways, night clubs, and every- y<
thing-that?went along with it; yet ti
none of these things turned out y
to excite my friends. It did my P
heart good to see this, for mojt K
pebple first visit is excitable, and lc
when they return home, they are tr
too excited to really tell what
they saw. It pays to be trained tl
?r era and her ister spent-an enjoy- ?
able time here. She shall come -n
again to see New york. This is Is
not her sister's first visit here. e<
Come again girls, we shall wel- h

Now we have come to the sad a
part of our report. THe "Urim ~F
<, Reaper" has cut down three of 2i
our beloved citizens: Pvt. Ruben B
Toney, Rev. Joseph WHson, and h
Miss Barbarra Richmond. o
Pvt. Ruben Toney was called to I
the service just two weeks before b
he was called to the-great beyond, b
< It all cafne so sudden and unex- d
pected, for he appeared?in good -C
health . when inducted. He was tl
funeralized at The Folley's Fun- n
erah home, with"1 military burial g
fft Farmdale, His body was tl
laid to rest under a., beautiful c:
. mound of flowers in the Veteran
cemetery. Rev. Wyatt of Mount
Sinai Baptist church officiated.
The services were impressive but
imple. 'He spent his thirty yeprs J
in ?wiles, and lived to hope for a c
! betWr day to come. He shall be C
sadly missed by all." Pvt. Toney &
was the son of the lpte Mr. and n
Mrs. Jolley Toney of Williston, S.
I C. He leaves to mourn his loss, u
a loving wife, Mrs. Hattie Toney; a
three sisters, two brothers, and
four nieces; and many other rel- h
atives and friends. May we dedi- t<
cate these few lines to the deceas,
