Burdell has visited friends here i
several times since leaving to make
his home in Columbus, S. C., but
says that when he gets homesick for
his boyhood companions, he takes a
flight in this direction and goes on
again happy over the renewed rela- j

He notes many changes in the i
passing of the years. The handsome j
homes, the beautiful yards and I

new residences mark a forward >
movement in his opinion for a bigger
