THE NOVEL
Fills important Place In
Literature.
Rev. L. A. Lindemuth Speaks Of
"What Shall We Read?"

What Shall We Read?-An Out
look Upon Books as a Factor in Pro-
ducing Happiness" was the subject of
sermon by Rev. l.. A. Lindemuth
In the First Presbyterian church Sun
day morning. His text was, Give
Attendance to Reading"
In the introduction to his sermon,
Rev. Mr.. Lindemuth set forth the
enormous output of literature from
the modern printing press, showing
the relative products of the various
civilized nations, the character of their
publications ana the aggregate amount
of all publications including vile lit
eature. Into this mass of literature
the American youth is sent with the
command Give Attendance to Read
ing" and the question Immediately
arises, What Shall We Read to Attain
the Rest ResultsY
The speaker dwelt briefly with the
building up of home library, and
then took up the modern novel Show
ing the characteristics of various pop
ular novels, and pointing out their
moral teaching, he said, From n
moral or educational viewpoint these
books are not to be condemned. In
measure they supplant inferior novels;
they give pleasant, wholesome read
Ing; they open up roads of life which
every man cannot learn by actual ex.
perience; they supply a means OF cul-
ture for which the old classics are too
profound; they stimulate reading in
multltudes who otherwise would not
read. But herein is the dan
ger. We are becoming in
tellectually intoxicated with light
reading and are thereby being
weakened, We read not for instruc.
tion, not TO seek truth, not for per
sonal profit, not to weigh and consider
and feed our intellectual natures, but
simply to catch the story and amuse
ourselves for the time. And the M
turnl tendency is to crowd out the
more refined classical literature
poets, essayists, biographies, etc"
The speaker then pleaded for an
earnest study of the great classics.
lie showed that great book does not
reveal all it's contents In a single read
ing, but needs to be studied. Taking
mp the worlds great epics, he showed
what We're the real characteristics of
truly great book, laying emphasis
on the fact that great book teaches
truth FOR all times, and is lifeteach-
or. He then pointed out n few of
these great classics, showing In what
. manner they taught phases of right
living.
Quoting from some of the great au.
thors, he pointed out some laws rclat.
ing to proper reading, giving Emer
sons three rules; Never read "A book
that Is not year old; never read any
but famous books; never read "A book
that you do not like" Then pointing
out certain standard books that ought
to be read, and giving his reasons fol

Thursday Afternoon.

Pursuant to adjOurnmeut, the con-
ference re-cOnvened at the church at
2 p. m to finish up the business of
this session of the Columbia District
Conference.
Bishop Fitzgerald preached over
the greater part of the afternoon
session. Rev. J w. Cherry, of Pn-
Task, spoke in great enthusiasm Of
the WOman's Missionary Society,
and the work it was dOiEg in this
district. There are 1873 members in
the district, and thew had paid into
the treasury $40 Mr.. Cherry had
attended the Missionary Conference
at New Orleans, and was greatly
aroused over the work. He tried to
put some of his enth Isiasm into the
preachers of this district, and said
he hoped his efforts would not he rs
futile as hammering on cold iron or
preaching in the wilderness. The
matter was certainly laid upon the
cOnsciences of the preachers.
The report of the committee on
Conference Records was read and
approved A resolution Hedging
that all monies along all lines be
paid in full in the district was unan-
imOusly passed. Columbia is now

brethren and "sistereh" in Nash

cred together, and they were having
moaning and shouting exercises
One old sister in Dragging about her

Wednesday Afternoon.

The afternoon was given almost en-
tirely to discussion of Sunday school
work. Mr.. j. II. Stephenson, Superin.
tendept of the Bee Spring Sunday
school, the banner sunday school in the
district, made a most interesting talk
concerning the methods he used. He
stated that it was no uncommon oc
currence for every official member of the
church and every teacher of the school,
to answer present at roll call. Of such
thing were to happen in any Sunday
school in Columbia, it would be tho talk
of the town. Every year he reorganzes
his school and classifes the pupils, ad
vancing them by grades, according to
examination, just as they do in public
schools or other week day schools. Any
failure to make Sunday. school all it
should be- rests first upon the Superin-
tendent, and next upon the teachers. If
the Superintendent and teacher give no
thought to their work during the week,
of course the school will perish for the
want of cultivation.
Mr.. w. h. Craig, Superinte 1dent of
the Sunday school at Pulaski, followed
with talk about the Sunday school
teacher. The thought he emphasized
was that the teacher should be loving,
consecrated and devout. No man or
woman who did not live right, should
be allowed a class in the Sunday school
No worse misfortune could befall class
he thought, than to have for it's teacher
sour old Christian or giddy young
girl Before he would have such an
one in his school, he would shut the
doors, and wait upon God to send bin
better material.
Other talks bearing upon the subject
were made by Mr.. j. E Gilbert OF
Prospect, Rev B. F. Haynes, of Lewis
burg, Mr.. Anderson, Rev. Mr.. Garden
and DIR, Atkins.
Conference then adjourned until s
p. m.
Wednesday Evening.

perienced in bearing the cross for Jesus
Thursday Morning.
A half hour prayer service beginning
at $50 o'clock was led by Rev. r M
Chenault, and proved to be one o
spiritual blessing.
At o'clock the Conference was for
mally opened by Presiding Elder W. r
PEBBLES.
The first business of the morning wa
the cases of two young men, whose
names had been presented to the Con
ference recommending them to b
licensed to preach-Rev. W. T. Garden
Jr., from Williamson county, and Rev
Raymond Brown, who was duly recon-
mended from Pulaski. Both youn
men were unanimously elected.
