The Southern Cultivator last week
amongst other good things had the
following to say about the Anderson
Five County Fair:
This year Anderson county spread
out and took in the counties of Oco
nee and Abbeville on the South Caro
lina side of the river, and Hart and
Elberton counties on the Georgia
side, in putting on their fair which
was held from November 4th to Bth.
It was a great fair. Every depart
ment being well represented except
in the instance of cattle. The Ander
son fair has outgrown its quarters,
and they should form a fair associa
tion and purchase larger quarters.
They had four splendid community
agricultural exhibits. The Reed
Creek community from Hart county
Ga. won the first prize. Autreville
came second, Zion won third prize.
Over at Reed Creek school they have
a wide-awake vocational teacher, H.
L. Fry, and he has done a great work
in getting this community to pull to
gether and their exhibt showed
strongly the value of trained con
certed effort. Here they have a pure
seed association and are growing one
strain of corn and one strain of cot
' ton. Reed Creek also took the first
prize on their cotton exhibit.
Among the visitors here from
Anderson, S. C., Saturday were Mr.
W. P. Davis, Leighton Taylor and
Miss Wilburn.

Decorate Now.
Every store in Hartwell should
decorate their stores from front to

mas colors and "fixing” right away.
Hartwell’s trade is increasing daily,

from the merchants and their stores.
Let’s get fixed up now for the big
holiday business that has already
started in Hartwell.
James, young son of Mr. and Mrs.
J. Loyd Teasley, continues in a

the second will be performed Friday
of this week. James is one of
Hartwell’s brightest and most popular
little boys and his illness has caused
much grief amongst all our people.
We sincerely trust the operation on
Friday will be successful and the
little man may soon return home.

GOLDEN ANNIVERSERY OF
MR. AND MRS. L. RICHARDSON
On Dec. 2, 1874 Miss Fannie
Burriss and Mr. Lyt Richardson of
Hart county, Ga., were married at
the home of the bride’s parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Levi Burriss in Anderson
county, S. C.
According to my way of figuring
it has been fifty years Dec. 2, 1924
since this couple joined the happy
bonds of wedlock.
Knowing the good that has been
wrought by the deeds and councils
of these two worthy christain people
1 feel that it is my duty to try to
express in a small way the thoughts
suggested by Prof. Morgan H. Looney
when he said in his beautiful poem
“Give Me Roses While I Live.” I
am sure that if their many friends
and relatives were permitted to do
the thing they 7 would like best to do
on that day there would be hundreds
gathered at the old home to do them
honor and to show their esteem and
appreciation with some gift suited
for the occasion.
But instead, this noble couple will
quietly pass the day busying them
selves about their home thinking not
of the gifts of gold suggested by
custom of a time like this, but think
ing golden thought and doing golden
deeds just as they have thought and
done for these many 7 years.
They have spent their fifty years
of married life in devotion to each
other, and in administering to the
welfare of their neighbors and friends
both spiritually and materially.

Mrs. Richardson has always taken
very active interest in religious mat
ters and is today an officer in the
W. M. S. work of her church and
association besides teaching a Sun
day school class and holding other re
sponsible church positions.
I have been permitted to be in
their home a number of times in the
past few years and have always gone
away with a great deal of inspiration
and with the feeling that it is good
to be there.
I am sure many will join me when
I wish for them "Many Happy Re

Mr. S. H. White, Mr. and Mrs.

In the untimely and unexpected
death of Judge L. J. Greene, which
occurred at his home near Carnes
ville, Friday morning Nov. 21st, 1924
Franklin county, as well as this sec
tion of Georgia has sustained the
loss of one of her best citizens.
Judge Greene retired in his customary
good health, but during the night
was taken suddenly and violently ill,
death ensuing within a very short
time. He was a member of Cross
Roads Baptist church of that county,
and was for forty years the superin
tendent of the Sunday school there.
He was a consecrated Christian, a
patriotic citizen, a capable official,
a true friend. He is well known to
many of our people, particularly the
members of the Hartwell Bar. with
whom he in an social and official
way was often associated. He leaves
only one son Mr. Grady Greene.
Truly a good man is gone.
The death of Mr. James Kelley,
familiarly known as “Uncle Jim”
for many years the coroner of Frank
lin county which occurred last Thurs
day night at his home in Franklin
county, near Carnesville, removes a
well known and deservedly popular
citizen and faithful official of our
sister county. He had reached a
very ripe old age, and his death was
not unexpected. For many months
he has been suffering intensely from
cancer, which resulted in death. He
was a Master Mason, a member of
the Cross Roads Baptist church, and
one of the best citizens this section
of the State has ever had. He leaves
a wife and a large family to mourn
his loss and revere his memory. True
to every duty and obligation of life,
he leaves an example worthy of the
emulation of those who follow him.
