many Scriptural evidences to prove
where we are on the stream Of tine.
Mems hearts are failing them for
fear and many Of the leading think
srs are proposing remedies to better
conditions. The Scriptures assure Us
that mans extremity Will be Gods
opportunity. and this book holds out
an anchor to those who fear the wave
Of unrest now spreading over the
world.
The honest heart confesses that 1t Is
1t a loss TO. an explanation Of tran
spring events. While We refer to this
a. the BRAIN AGE and the Age Of
ENLIGHTENMENT nevertheless
many realize that we are fast ap-
preaching crisis which is wrapped In
darkness owing to the present world

Again we beg to remind our
friends that all notices relating to
money making enterprises, for
church, school or any other cause,
are charged for as advertising at
one cent word. All cards of
thanks, for any purpose whatsoever,
are charged for at the rate of one
cent word. 1t would save US a
good deal of trouble and embarrass-
ment if you would just count the
words and send the money along with
your copy" as it hardly pays US to
keep books on these little items. Yet
in the aggregate they mean a con-

everything else that was made on a
large plantation. Everything burned
up. There we were without anything
at all, and we would actually have
starved if not for the help of two
old uncles. A day or two before the
soldiers came mother made two or
three negroes, whom she thought she
could trust, carry a great quantity
of our meat into the garret; but one
of the negroes betrayed US and the
meat was tossed down, cut up into
pieces and scattered in every direc-
ton. We killed between three and
five hundred hogs each year and you
can imagine how much meat we had.
Oh, the delightful hog-killing
time! When was child We would
get our hands full of little pieces of
meat and run to "mammy's" house
to roast it on the Goals. We loved her
very much, and l think got great
deal Of nv reverence for religion
from her. She could not read, but
she loved to hear US read the Bible,
and he. life bore evidence of her
sincerity.
One incident impressed me on the
day of the "raid'''-a negro woman
stepping into one of our carriages
with beautiful little hat of mine on
her head. The carriage was filled
negro soldiers, and we heard after
wards that the carriage was left on
the public road about ten miles dis
tant. A great many of our negroes
followed the Yankees off to George
town, but as so many of them died of
fever the rest of them were glad to
get back home.
A great many people lost their
silver and jewelry, but we were for
tunate enough to save ours. An old
Baptist minister buried them until
all danger was past.
We stayed away about three
weeks, and, oh, what devastation!
Nearly all Of the furniture was car
ried off by our negroes, the carpets
cut into strips and it took US long
time to get things into shape again.
About dozen of our citizens in the
neighborhood disguised themselves
as Yankees and went around to- all
the negro houses, and in very short
time our things were brought back.

NEW AND LEE ARE AT ODDS
 OVER INDIANA National Chairman Says c. O. P. Can't Win With Anyone,
 if Taft Fails Orders For Taft Instructions to All National COnven-
 tian Delegates
Special from United Press )


 Washington, Dec. 13-The Indiana situation held the center of the boards in Republican circles today, with re- newed counterstatements by Captain Harry s. New and State Chairman Lee, who asserted that Taft could not carry Indiana.
 New charged, at the White House, today. that Lees statement was in- spired and part of a "re-arranged plan'' that brought" Lee to Washing ton by way of New York; Lee came back with a statement that he had laid the situation before the President | three weeks ago.
 "I had information, several days ago, when MT. Lee was being brought to Washington by way of New York, that he would issue that statement" said New today.
 "I know of the~tnfiuences that are responsible for MT. Lees change of sentiment continued New ''It is part of pre-arranged plan and is entitled to the usual discount allowed in matters of this kind. Up to the time Lee left Indianapolis he was a candidate for reelection as chairman of the State Central committee with the full knowledge that MT. Taft would be the nominee. of the Repub licans. I am still firm in the con- V1ctlOn that MT. Taft Is the logical candidate of the Republican party to succeed himself as President, and am just as firm in my belief that the Re- publicans of Indiana believe in him and are for him without qualification and the State delegation to the na- tional convention will give him it's full support.
 If the Republican party cannot win with Mr. Taft it certainly cannot win with anyone else. I believe that the electoral vote of Indiana will be cast for MT. Taft"
 | Orders to all Taft leaders to insist upon 1ronclad Taft instructions being given by State conventions to dele gates to the National Republican con- vention were framed today by Secre- tary Hilles and Chairman Harry S. New, of the committee on arrange ments for the convention. In this way the Taft men plan to prevent a stampede in the convention and hope to cause the instruction of enough delegates to insure the renomination of the President. New and Miles were in conference all morning in Hilles' office, at the White House. New announced today that he will call a preliminary meet ing of hts committee in Chicago for the second week in January.
