Sumner School for Abbeyille County.

Superintendent Of Education J. Foster
Hammond has perfected arrangements by
which teachers Of Abbeville County will
be given the advantages Of a summer

age Of the opportunity thus opened up to
them.

McLane will have charge of the work
This is enough to insure a splendid course
Prof, Dick has had a broad experience IN

why The Difference?
sENEvoLEEcE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
BLENESS AT HOME.
Did Any Christian Church Ever Prosper
That Did Not Dispense at Least the
>, SembIanee- OF Charity?
(Contributed.)

Charity is one Of the sweetest words In
the English language. In practicing 1t
the man Of millions finds his greatest
pleasure, even as the widow is comforted
In casting In her mite.
Charity, like sunshine, descends
into the lives Of the poor and the
HELPLESS. It blesses alike the giyer and
the receiver of kind words and good
gifts. But In dispensing charity the
same practical discrimination should
prevail that is used In ordinary business
affairs. Real charity does not neglect
a brother and neighbor that Its work
Of love may be expended In the home
Of the alien. Charity begins at home.
What Is the record Of the Associate
Reformed Church in this particular?
During the Synodical year just closed,
patients were treated in our Mexican
hospital, and for the treatment about $3.50
average was collected from the patients.
Beside the original cost Of the hospital
building, money was appropriated by Sy-
nod for the upkesp OF this institution.
This is q work that, on its face, car but
appeal to the charitable heart, but when
we reflect that little effort has been made
in this direction at home, and that the
strength, efficiency and growth OF the
church is impaired by scattering our en-
ergies, the mistake Of this policy is ap-
parent. The man who allows weeds to
grow in his own field while working in the
field Of q stranger, is set down as an i'm
provident man. He does not provide for
his own house and is ."worse than an
infdel."
We are spending thousands Of dollars
to educate Mexican children in schools
which are taught at our expense. We
maintain an orphanage for orphaned Mex
leans. We dispense free medicines to sick
Mexicans. What are we doing for home
folk?
Anew years ago a young girl without
means, asked to be allowed to give her
personal obligation to the authorities OF
Due West Female College, in lieu OF cash
for tuition alone, she boarding at
home. Though she lived almost within
the shadow of the walls Of the college this
request was not granted. This is not an
isolated case. The experience Of this girl
has recently been repeated in the expert
ence of another girl, as good a woman as
there is in Due West. She lives at home,
but must pay the tuition or quit the class

There is neither charity nor
credit for the orphan at the very doors OF
the Church College,.
And still another case: A boy entered
Erskine College, a church institution. His
tuition was paid in advance for a session.
In a few weeks the boy was expelled. He
had violated some Of the rules Of the COL
.lege. The College then jumped the game.
It would neither teach the boy nor return
the cash.
Admitting that the faculty was
iustiHable in Diminishing the boy, and upon
which act I make no sort Of criticism, the
rules OF the Synod placed the faculty or
the board of trustees in a very awkward
position. By the rules Of the Synod nei-
Their the treasurer, nor the trustees, nor the
faculty we're authorized to return the
money which had been paid for the tuition
of the expelled boy. The return OF the
money 80 paid In advance Was refused to
the father because Of the laments!ble fact
that his son disobeyed rules and
had been dismissed. No sympathy
was In evidence for the grieved father,
but the college turned q deaf eur to JUS
dce, and frightened It's grip on the money
which properly belonged to the poverty
stricken neighbor, who was borne down
by the infrmities Of years, and whose
distress In supporting his family the
world will never know.
The fact is, then, that In the
treasury Of the Synod there is a small
! amount Of money that does not belong to
it, and to retain which I leave others to
say If it does not Involve more or less
Of q reflection upon the work Of the
Synod itself in doing that which would
not be countenanced by the hard rules Of
business world, and which would not be
permitted by the equity courts Of the
country.
II 1t be contended that by the rules Of
the College the money was forfeited, be-
cause the faculty chose to expel the boy,
I would reply that any rule which Is not as
high in morals as that which governs the
citizen In the ordinary affairs OF Life
should not govern a Christian College that
is governed by a christian church.
If it be contended that the amount OF
the poor fathers money, which was in
equitably confiscated by the Synod, was
small, then there is revealed the greater
wrong. The idea Of a great church or q
great college confscating a poor mans
money, even though they had a technical
right to do so, is so much at variance with
any idea of fair dealing that disinterested
onlookers will be astonished. The idea
of a great and good church taking,
by such practice OF otherwise, from
the poorest man in the community
even the least coin Of the realm without
giving the full promised service-,is simply
appalling, and scarcely to be believed.

WANTS PRESERVES
 AND HOT BISCUIT
CAR HERE YESTERDAY AND STIPULATED THE THINGS SHE MUST HAVE TO EAT

There must be sweet, well-cooked pre- serves and hot homemade biscuit for Miss Maude Adams, the celebrated &C., tress, who pleased large audience in Birmingham last night.
 This was her ultimatum to Local Su- perintendent c. W. Lewis of the Pull man company yesterday when Miss Ad- ams engaged the private car "Movio," which was secured from St. Louis by quick telegraphing.
 The private car reached here last night and will be occupied today
 It was stipulated by Miss Adams that she must be served with biscuit and pre- serves like mother used to make every day from the buffet service of her pri- vate car, or the car could not be used The Pullman officers here yesterday were accordingly very busy stocking the car with all the choice preserves that could be secured in Birmingham. And the bis- cult will be cooked daily by chef who was reared and learned his artistic bis- cult making below the Mason and Dixon line.
 The private car which was engaged here yesterday by the theatrical star was at a cost of $55 per day, which includes the buffet service by the Pullman. This does not include the railroad fee for haul ing the car, which includes IS full fares to every point that is touched by the actress F or this outlay of money Miss Adams receives a rolling palace and the services of three men In the employ of the Pullman company. They are chef, waiter and porter.

CRAwFoRDssERv
Four More Conventions at First Cum- berland Presbyterian Church, U. s. A.

Four more conversions were added to the list as the result of last evening s service at the First Cumberland Pres byterian church, U. s. A. Dr. Craw- ford in his discourse asserted that all men in contemplating the hereafter take refuge behind something; some be- hind their own morality, goodness and charitabIeness; some behind the wick edness of others, feeling that they themselves are better than this or that church member; others behind the as- serted belief that there Is no God and no hereafter. and In closing took the ground that no refuge that will not stand the test of the best that Is In us and that will not stand the test of the dying hour is true or an effective refuge.
 Tis discourse was logical and con vincing.
 The results, of the meeting are emil nently satisfactory to those who have it in hand and even greater returns are expected from service to service.

 MT. Lindsey, who was driving the machine at the time of the accident, stated that he and MT. Crane were on their way to Bessemer when they reached Smiths crossing, which was being approached by two cars. In an effort to avoid one of the cars they had collision with the other, which they had not noticed. Both men were thrown from the big machine, which was badly wrecked, and MT. Crane was rendered unconscious for some time after the mishap, and was otherwise badly bruised and cut

COFFEE WAS TT
 People Slowly Learn the Facts

"All my life I have been such slave to coffee that the very aroma of it was enough to set my nerves culver ing. l kept gradually losing my health but used to say nonsense, 1t don't hurt me-
 Slowly I was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my whole nervous force was shattered.
 My heart became weak and uncer- tain in it's action and that frightened me. Finally my physician told me, about year ago, that I must stop drinking acoffee or I could never expect to be well again.
 'I was in despair, for the very thought of the medicines I had tried so many times nauseated me. thought of Postum but could hardly bring my self to give up the coffee.
 Finally l concluded that l owed it to myself to give Postum a trial. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicious, nourishing. rich drink it was. Do you know found 1t very easy to shift the change at all?
 Almost immediately after I made the change I found myself better, and as the days went by kept on improv- ing. My nerves grew sound and steady. slept well and felt strong and balanced all the time.
 Now I am completely cured, with the old nervousness and sickness all gone. In every way I am well once more"

HORSE AND BUGGY
 CAUSE OF CHASE.
OFFICERS PURSUE MEN OUT MT. PINsON ROAD IN AUTOMOBILE BUT MACHINE FINALLY BALKED AT THE PACE

William Whitaker was surprised. not to say amazed. yesterday afternoon when he saw two men spring into a buggy he had left "a few minutes be- fore and go driving madly away.
 Mir Whitaker quite naturally called up the police station and informed the authorities of the facts of the case in an aggrieved voice. Upon which an automobile full of officers was hurried to the scene of thesoutrage.
 The detectives found the trail hot and hastily pursued the flying horse and buggy toward the Terminal sta tion and out the Mt. Pinson road After rolling along beautifully for several miles the automobile, without warming. developed decided symptoms of the mule and unhesitatingly baked, nor were all the efforts of the perspiring chauf- feur sufficient to induce the machine to resume it's interrupted journey
 Imagine the feeling of MT. Whitaker as he looked at the obstinate automo- bile and thought of the ever widening distance between himeslf and his horse and buggy. There was no getting around the fact, the officers were stalled and were forced to give up the chase on account of lack of means of locomotion.
 MT. Whitaker estimated that his feel ings had been damaged an untold amount not to mention the horse and buggy, and in the excitement of the moment offered a reward of s25 for the return of his missing animal. How ever, upon further deliberation MT. r1at Ix l,lx. decided that $10 would be ample rec ompense
 MT. Whitaker Is collector for the Matthews-Lively Furniture company. and the horse belonged to the firm. He left the horse In front of his home yesterday afternoon and had started into the house when the theft occurred.
