It is interesting to note how this
view of greatness has by degrees be-
come the standard of the whole world
and in every sphere Of activity. The
recent upheavals in Persia are but
the over throwing of those ancient
conceptions Of grandeur and snbsti-
tuting the Christian ideal. Mere office
holding is no longer to be looked up
on as an end to be sought after, but
an opportunity for service. When one
is elected to office it yet remains to be
seen whether the occupant is worthy
or capable.
This conception is of fundamental

what sphere of activity may engage
your energies, this principle is ap-
plicable and worth knowing. The
service which you can render will

Many a man defeats his own asplra-
tions by never having understood
that useful labor precedes positions
Of honor and trust. A great many
would like the honorable stations
but few are willing to pay the price
in personal service and self-denlal.
The birtlrisht is too often sacrificed
for :, mess Of poLtage, and L useful
future career is bartered for the pass
ing pleasures Of the moment.
Many persons seem to be at loss
to know where and what kind Of SER
vice TO render AS to where, we would
answer, right where you are. 1t is a
common mistake of mankind to think
that If they were in some other con-
dition or some where else they could
do wei! and attain distinction. This
Understanding where we are and

full error. When the disciples would
pass by Sam;tria Jesus bade them lift
up their eyes. and look upon the fields
for they were white already to har
vest. Again, he reminded them that
the Kingdom of God comes not by OBJ
servation 1t is not, 10 here, nor 10
there. but the Kingdom Of God is
within you.
This thought is aptly illustrated by
a story of an ancient Persian farmer
who lived near the shore of the River
Indus, by the name Of Al Hated. he
owned large farm, with orchards,
grain fields and gardens, had a beau
tiful wife and lovely children, was a
wealthy and contented man. But one
night a Buddhist Priest visited him
and told MIN of the incalculable val
ue of diamonds. This story of dia.
monds kindled in Al Hafed's breast
an Unsuitable desire to be rich and so
he sold his farm and started on a
fruitless search for diamond mine.
The result of which was the loss of all
his property and the taking of his
own life. But that was not all, there
was discovered in the brook that
flowed by the garden which Al Hafed
had sold a diamond, and the earth
around for acres were filed with these
brilliant jewels! The moral of this
story is not hard to be seen. The story
is repeated in many forms every day

A BRILLIANT EVENT.
Governor John c. sheppard's Magnificent
Address-Fine Music-G1aduating
Exercises.

Monday was a great day for
those interested in the Manning
Graded School. Governor John
C. Sheppard, from the correspon-
dence had with him, was not ex-
pected until evening, but in or
der to have a few hours of quiet,
he came on the 1915 train in
the morning. When it was learn
! ed the Governor was here,
Professor Daniel, the school trus-
tees and others looked after his
comfort and pleasure. for it was
indeed a great pleasure, and a
high honor to entertain such a
distinguished gentleman.
The commencement exercises
were held in the new auditorium
which was most brilliantly light
ed. 1t is estimated that there were
not less than 800 people in the
audience. and it was a gathering
Of culture, refinement and fash
ion.
On the stage was seated Gov
ernor John c. Sheppard. Major
Abe Levi, chairman OF the board
of trustees, Captain W. G. Davis,
member of the board, S. Oliver
!O,Rrvan ESQ. State Senator
Lonis Applet, and Prof. john G.
; Daniel who was the master OF
ceremonies. There was also up.
OH the stage Misses Edna Brock
inton, Ria Lee Bowman. Angus
ta Applet and Grady Bowman
WAC furnished the rument;tl
music. Messrs. F. O. Richardson.
C. W. Wells, A. P. Burgess and
J. L. Wells, the singing quartet.
Among those occupying seats of
prominence was the graduating
class, of course they were the OBJ
iects of attraction, it was these
young ladies and gentleman
whose kindred and friends were
proudest. These were Mr.: Jake
Harvin, Misses Marian Wells,
Virginia Wilson, May Davis,
Tillie Tisdale, Mary RidgiIl, Rox.
lie Holladay and Lena Plowden.
That these distinguished young
people had many friends and low
ed ones; in the audience was at.
tested by the many beautiful
floral tributes that were laid up
on the foot of the stage for pre-
entation. The entire surround
ings was one magnificent and
brilliant effect: there was every.
thing to make this occasion a
memorable success, the Princl-
pal with his corps of faithful as
sistants had their Labors we'll

Benediction-Rev. F. II. Shuler

The piano used on this occa-
sion was a grand of the Hallett
& Davis make, placed at the dis
posal of the school by Mr.. S. I.
Till, who is the factory's repre-.
sentative. It's a splendid in
strument, and was handled by a
musician of high order.
The sermon was indeed one Of
the most appropriate we have
ever listened at, full of logic,
teeming all through with sound
advice, no display of flights Of
imagination: yet the purest kind
of eloquence, because of its
reaching effect. The preacher
had a story to tell those who are
upon the threshold of life, and
in language so simple that. all
could understand, a lesson was
brought home to his hearers
that will linger in their minds.
It was indeed splendid sermon.
delivered in splendid style, and
beneficial in effect.
The music was excellent, both
of the anthems with the piano
aceompaniments were SO beauti-
fully rendered that many in the
audience were profuse in their
concentrations. The writer took
advantage of this occasion to
test the acoustics of the build
ing by taking a seat in the last
row of the gallery, and he will
say that out of the very many
public halls he has been IN, the
acoustics of this building are as
good, if not better, than in any
other auditorium he has ever
visited. During the sermon,
even when the speakers voice
was at its lowest: not a word
was lost, and there was no echo
ing sound accompanying the
singing.
Rev. A. R. Woodson took oc-
casion in few appropriate re.
marks to pay a tribute to the
trustees for the magnificent re-
suit of their labors and said that
he felt he was but voicing the
feelings of the community at
large when he endorsed the ac-
ton of the trustees and teachers,
and asked for those who agreed
