SOCIAL NEWS OF GREENBRIER WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS GREENBRIER WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. —The merriest week of the season has drifted into the past. Its sweet memories linger, arid with them, eager anticipation of the week to come. Riding and driving has been fash ionable morning and afternoon. Mis* Terry Dulany rides a handsome end spirited mount with great grace, her chic costume showing off her beauty to perfection. Other devotees of the equestrian art are: Mrs. L. M. Brown, Mrs. Geo. W. Murye, Miss Flora Doyle. Messrs. John and Tom Middle ton, Hunter Dulany, Wilfred Blunt, I)r A. 0. Randolph and Dr. John W. Somerville. Mr. John P. Branch drives * pair of well matched bays, so does Mr. W. S. Burke. Mrs. C. L. Ritter's horse, ‘‘Gayhoy,’* gets a large share of admiration, as well as the skill with which Mrs. Rit ter handles him. Mrs Claud Swanson, wife of the popular governor of Virginia, has been much feted since her arrival on the 24’h. Some of the charming wo men who have entertained in her hon or. Mrs. James R. Branch, Mrs. B. Wood and Mrs. Geo. W. Marye. The fancy dress hop given by the younger set was a great success. Miss Willis Wilson lead the grand march with Mr. R. W. Burke, afterwards dancing a Spanish dance with Mr. W. V. Turner. She was awarded ladies' first prize. The second prize went to Miss Mary Cooke Branch, who I was beautiful in an unique costume representing the Illustrated Press.l Miss L. Parke Taylor received the| most applause, and was the star of the occasion, dressed as a Goop, win ning the gentlemen's first prize. Af ter the hop delicious refreshments were served. There is some nuiet amusement among a chosen few, at the expense of a beautiful woman, prominent in the social life of more than one city, who was the solitary actor of an im promptu tableau. On this particular night she had been playing bridge, with some friends at a cottage; their absorption In the game making them oblivious to the low rolls of thunder. Going out on the porch they discov ' red there had been a drenching rain, the erstwhile good road between them and the hotel having been converted into a mass of sticky mud. •'Oh' your lovely white shoes and stocking*!" exclaimed a matron, "they will be utterly ruined!" But no; Madam was resourceful: stooping gracefully, she snatched off the threatened garments. Tucking them under her arm and catching up her skirts, she stepped forth into the wire, the dazzling whiteness of her biro feet quite eclipsing the lifted ruffled laces. Mrs. I* R. Dugas, of Augusta, is ex ported to visit The White. Mrs Du : gas is very popular, and will be much entertained. NOT ANONYMOUS AT ALL.

Gates FARMERS’ UNION SIS IN STRENGTH Berlin Farmers Hear Good News From Messrs. E. L. Reynolds and J. W. D. Goodin. Special to The Herald. McBEAN, Ga.—According to an ap pointment, County Lecturer E. L. Reynolds of> the Richmond County Farmers’ Union spoke at Berlin schoo house Friday to a very large crowd. W. S. Broome, president of the Berlin local union, in a few well chosen words, introduced the speaker.- Mr. Reynolds began his speech by stat ing that so many people expect too much of the farmers’ union in too short time, while he stated that it had already done lots of good in many ways. It was now only in its in fancy and people should not be im patient for it’s gaining strength every day and would soon be in a position to accomplish anything it undertook. He stated that th e farmers created 75 per cent of the wealth of the world and yet owned less than 20 per cent of the wealth, showing conclusively that something was badly wrong. From the fact that all other lines of busi ness were well organized should be significant proof to the farmers that they too should be likewise organ ized. After speaking for over an hour, giving his audience solid facts and cheering news, he closed, the audience showing their appreciation by their hearty applause. Mr. J. W. D. Goodin. Mr. J. W. D, Goodin, vice president of the county union, was introduced and having just returned from the state convention, where he represent ed Richmond county, was chock-full of good news, and in his easy and enthusiastic style gav e much encour aging news which inspired them to hearty applause. Much good is expected from this meeting and the Berlin union which is the oldest, union in the county will soon be the banner local in the county.

NO NIGHT SCHOOLS IN CITY OF MACON Efforts Have Been Made To Stimulate Interest Without Result. Specal to The Herald. MACON. Ga.—Macon is just as night-school-less as ever she was de spite a great deal of pow wowing that has been done about such an institu tion during the last two years. In order to pave the way for a night school a bill was introduced in the legislature two years ago and a peti tion was signed by several hundred citizens but all of this did not have the effect of opening a school. The county commissioners have been backward about setting aside money to help maintain such an in stitution although one would cost lit tle more than the salary.

AROUND MACON THE RAIN FALLS FREELY Special to The Herald. MACON, Ga. —Macon is in the grip of the dog star, if that star has any thing to do with dog days, for there has been rain here each day for the last week or more and the indications are that the daily rains will continue.
