YoUEG MEMS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
The proceeds of Judge Shepherds Lecture,
under the auspices of this Association,
amounted to about 1926. Learning that the
Hospitals did not stand in need of funds to
promote the physical comfort Of their in
mates, the Association wisely determined to
invest the amount in Religious Newspapers
and Tracts. to be sent to the Hospitals and
the Camps-dividing the amount appropria-
TED to Newspapers among the several relig-
ious periodicals in the State, and placing the
remainder in the hands of Mr.. Crowder.
We think this the very best disposition
that could have been made of the money
. certainly none could have been made. more
| IN consonance with the purposes Of the Az
I soc'atiof, or that would better meet the
wants and desires of our soldiers. From our
!. extensive correspondence with those in the
Hospitals and Camps, we learn there is a
general concurrence, that good moral and re.
hgious reading is The great desiteratuua in
the army and there is no way in which
true friendship to the soldier and devotion to
the country can be more advantageously
manifested, than by supplying the Hospitals
and Camps with reading of this character
We supply many copies of our paper gra-
tuftously to the Hospitals, and persons un-
known to US have ordered copies Of the Spir-
it of the Age to be sent there. And we are
always told, that they are read with anxiety
and deep interest and pro6t-often, very Of
ten, to the moral advantage of those who ne
ruse them. So of the Religious papers, we
douot not, to even a greater extent. Let
the benevolent patriotic heart of the South
, expand to this noble purpose, and let the
friends at home see that those in the army
are supplied with good moral and religious
reading. a
We learn that the Association is MAKING
arrangements to have other Lectures deliv-
cred for the furtherance of its benevolent and
! pious designs in-this regard.

The Hearthside.

The hearthside is the only universal semi
nary. It's lessons are woven in childhood.
and reach out through life and spar the
grave. A few boast of a collegiate course
and flourish the honorable diploma, but all
are graduates from the great school of the
hearth. The learning and letters Of the
college hall may fade out from memory.
It's classic lore may be blotted out forever !:
butthe simple lessons of home and the hearth.
engraved upon the heartof the child. DEFY the
mist OF years and the waning vision of ,nemo-
~, and go down with life's evening sun only.
A@~st afr in hi hand
s'ahn'hg at the threshold of the grave, and he
tel s you a simple tale Of childhood's lows am
It's lessons, while all between the err do and
the grave is a blasted and desolate waste
HOW important then, that .he lessons Of the
hearth-slde should be pure and exalted !.
'hey give tone, texture and color to fntnre
life.
