The Couniy Medical Society. coi posedi tfilbe phican- .f Newberry countV. hlsi( mon2thlyI meet ing.s aliter natin between Newber1Y and Pro". peritv for these meetin s. The pur pose of the physicians is a -good one and they discuss diseases and their treatment as well as get in closer social touch with one another. and apart from being pleasant, the meet ings are instructive. At the last meeting. which was held at Prosperity, it was decided that the next meeting should be a public one, and it will he held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms at Newberry on Friday. August 9. At this meeting Dr. C. T. Wyehe, of Prosperity, will read a paper on the prevention of diseases. Dr. Wyehe hopes to make this paper not simply a technical pa per for the information of the pro fessional men, who may be present, but a cleat and simple paper, which may be understood and. appreciated by the laymen. Dr. Wyche has given considerable thought to this subject, and has been very much interested in the pure food laws and secured the passage at the last sessio onf the legislature of the pure food law in this state. It will be remembered that during the campaign last year he would touch upon the importance of, pre venting diseases showing his deep in terest in the subject. The ladies are especially invited to attend bhis public meeting of the County Medical Society. Dr. P. G. Ellisor is the president of this society and Dr. W. E. Pelham, Jr., the secretary. Fine Oats. Mr. Thomas M. Neel, who lives just one mile west of. the city, has just threshed 554 bushels of oats besides having fed from the oats during the time since harvest began, and leaving a. sufficient quantity unthreshed .to feed until harvest time comes again. The yield is about 50 bushels per acre. Mr. Neel has also about twenty-eikht acres: on this small farm upon which he resides, of as fine corn as was ever grown in this ection.. Mr. John Henry Chappell also has about sixteen acres of fine corn in this same community. Mr. Chappell 's corn is especially fine, though not quite as large a body. Mr. Ohappell e.xpects to gather about seventy-five lbushels from each acre. The Herald and News has a photograph of the field, and hopes to present the picture in one of the is sues next week. The truth of the matter is, even the farmers themsel ves admit, that this year they have one of the best corn erops ever grown in this state, and in a great many cases the eorn is made and remains only to be harvested. A. R. P. Services. On next Sabbath there will be preaching at' King's Creek at 11 a. m. and at Cannon's Creek at 4 p. in., and at Prosperity at 8.30 p. m. In Memory of Hugh Merril Daven port. The Angel of Death visited our home one year ago today and took Merrill, July 29, 1906. Aged 17 years, 1 month and 1 day. Farewell, Merrill, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn; We s'hall meet .to part-no never! On the resurrection morn. Tho' thy darling form lies sleeping In the cold and silent tomb, Thou shalt have a glorious waking When the blessed Lord doth come. Thy gentle voice now is hushed, Thy warm, true heart is still, And on thy young and innocent brow, Is resting death's cold chill. Thy hands are clasped upon thy breas, We have kissed thy lovely brow, And in our aching hearts we know, We have no darling now. We have lost our darling Merrill, He has bid us all adieu; He has gone to live in Heaven, And his form is lost to view. Oh, that dear one, how we loved him, Oh, how hard to give 'him up! But an angel came down for him And removed him from our flock. Peaceful by thy silent slumber, Peaceful in thy grave so low; Thou no more will join our number. Thou no more our sorrows know. et agaizn we hope to meet thee, When the day of life is fled, And in heaven with joy to greet thee. Where no farewell tears are shed. Sitr . M. D.
