The Evening Star.

Whenever / see the evening star
My thoughts fly far away to you.
Thank God there is no barrier
TO what a loving thought may
do.
Though hands and lips must
often forego
The dear delights that lure them
Whenever the evening star ap-
Before my required sight
A veil falls from mine eyes and
l see and hear alright.
Thank God for the memory
That brings close to the heart
The dearest things, the evening
star,
! can not tell wherein it's magic
lies.
Thank God, it nightly deigns
To dwell within these lonesome
skies,
And ever may the fair star he
A mizpath and light to you
and me.

A GOOD REPORT OF THE
STATE s. s. CONVENTION

Editor THE CHRONICLE:
If the editor will allow me space
I will write a few lines about the
State Sunday School Convention,
which convened in Chattanooga
June 6, and s. In the first place
I will say it was one of the most
enthusiastic gathering of Sunday
school workers l ever had the op-
portunity and pleasure of attend
ing. Some of the best talent and
most consecrated Christian work
ers were on the program, and a
spirited general discussion full of
inspiration was heard on all topics.
On Wednesday night, the 9TH, it
was our pleasure of hear Brother
John r. Pepper of Memphis on
Sunday schools and missions. [
think Brother Pepper is one of the
greatest laymen of this generation.
I also heard Brother Fl. NJ. Hamil
D. D. of Nashville on the subject
of winning a generation. In this
discussion he set forth the fact
that every great industry and enter
prise of our country had cost skill,
labor and money, and that this
State and international Sunday
school movement was one of the
most vital of any State or church
movements that had ever been
launched before, and that it would
cost time, labor and money. He
said he would wait Is minutes for
the delegates from the various
counties to pledge such amounts
as they felt that they could, and in
that time about SO, 500 was pledged.
OF this amount we pledged for
Benton County the small sum OF
$40. This we will pay, for we had
Sl2 of last years receipts, and we
made no particular effort to collect
much, either. We have receipt
from the State secretary to our
county secretary for this amount
1t is hoped that before the next
State convention meets that Ben
ton County will be banner county
A banner county is one III which
every district or section has been
oroani zed. This can soon be &C
Ann nlished If we will make the
.Hort. Let every Christian man
and woman 60 to work and help
our county president and the ais
tvict presidents to organize the
three remaining districts OF our
.ountv. Then Benton County Will
appear red o" the map OF rea"ss-
The Camden chronicle. (Camden, Tenn.) 1890-current, 1911-06-16

see, as exhibited in our State con-
vention, and red counties mean a
banner county.
AS the only delegate from this
county, l promised that l would do
all I could, and stated also that l
believed there were possibly humid
reds of men and women in our
county that would do more than [
could possibly do, and we would
endeavor to make it a banner coun-
ty before the next State conven-
ton. Hundreds greeted this with
hurrahs for Benton County to-
gether with many saying God
bless her."
This is not all, but coming down
to the individual school, there has
been prepared for each school a
standard or chart, 1928 inches,
that will serve as a yard stick or
measuring line to measure the
school. It is not intended to rep
resent an ideal school, but simply
reasonable standard practicable
for any school, country or city. 1t
includes ten points, each point
representing 10 per cent. These
are defined as follows:
III Evergreen, open IL months
in the year.
ri Good record, using the sys-
tenn of class and school records
prepared by its UNCONVENTIONAL
publishing house.
T3] Graded school.
[4] Adult classes organized.
Isl Workers meeting.
[6] Systematic plan for substi-
tute teachers.
ri Teachers training class.
ISL Cradle roll.
[9] Home department.
l0] Cooperation with district,
county and State associations.
These charts, together with such
literature as will explain it more
fully, will be mailed to any super
intendent for the asking, and in
compliance with the State secreta-
rvs request ! take this method of
asking that every superintendent
in the county write at once to Jo-
seph Carthel, general secretary,
Nashville, Tenn, who will prompt
ly mail them to you without cost.
Respectfully yours,
NOAH WILLIAMS.

hausted or the "news butch's" sup
ply ran out, and l can't say which.
At Mckenzie we were Joined by
more teachers from old Benton.
On arriving at Martin we were
met by a reception committee and
escorted to our temporary abode in
this hustling little town. After a
substantial dinner we assembled at
the county school building and
heard interesting addresses by
Professor Wilson, Superintendent
Fisher, Cummings, Hardin and
others.
Superintendent Hardin took an
enrolment of the teachers, after
which we adjourned to meet at the
Hall Moody hall Tuesday morning
at 7.30 o'clock. The following is

STORIES OF CHINA TO
BE told TODAY
Will Garry Children Into The
FIOWGFy Kingdom.

Stories about China will be told to
THE children who gather at the Car
negie Library at $3.50 o'clock this at
ternoon. The librarian, Mrs. Taylor,
has studied some charming stories
about these peculiar peple, stories
about child life among the queue
wearers, who are now discarding their
pig tails in obedience to the command
of the royal court, and will tell them
to the host of little ones in her usual
interesting manner.
China is naturally land of wonder
to the children of other lands, and the
Quaintness of the people and the oddi-
ties of their lives, their habits and
their thoughts, furnish ample food for
some delightful tales. So the children
who come to the library this afternoon
will find themselves in an entirely new
land from any they have yet entered
in these weekly hours of story telling.

MISS GOULD WILL
WEAR White SATIN
Will Have Eight Yard Train
to Wedding Gown,

New York, Feb. when Miss Helen
Vivian Gould, daughter Of George J,
Gould, becomes the bride of Lord De-
cies, on February Z, she Will have d
trousseau which will have cost $50
GOO, and will be perhaps the most elan
crate ever seen in New York A fam
Gus tailor is making the cloth gowns
and suits, and De Coll, OF Paris, the
wedding dress and evening gowns New
York, Paris and London have been
ransacked for lingerie, and there are
hats, shoes, slippers, and stockings 10
match each gown, Already 80 gowns
have been ordered, and designers are
at work on half dozen more.
The wedding gown will be Of heavy
white duchess satin, in semiempire
style, and heavily embroidered with
silver roses. The court train will ne
8 yards long. There will be low
collar of real lace and real lace veil.
1t is said that Miss Gould, as Lady
Decies, will wear this gown when she
represented at the British court after
the cornation ceremonies in June.
The bridesmaids kowns will be made
with the high-waisted empire effect Of
white chiffon over white satin. They
will be trimmed with festoons Of sea
green satin ribbon. The hats will be
of white chiffon, trimmed with green.
Miss Gould has shown no special
preference in the matter of color IN
choosing her evening gowns. She has
some of pale blue satin, delicate yell
lows, and cream shades, and much
gold and silver embroidery She also
has number of beautifully embroider-
ed linen gowns,
A friend who knows of what the
trousseau will consist declared thai
Miss Gould will be clad as the fash
ionable woman of tomorrow Will be
clad"
The tailor declined to give advance
descriptions of what the designers are
creating for Miss Gould.
Her dressmakers have been on
the point of frenzy in getting the
trousseau finished" he said. 1T was
because more time was needed than
will have elapsed between Miss
Gould's coming out and her marriage
that the designers had to be started
earlier. 1t was on account of this that
the premature news of the engage
ment leaked out"
Several wedding gifts have already
arrived at the Gould mansion in Fifth
avenue. This week the jewels, which
vii lbe remarkable, will be sent there
All the family are spending the week
end at Georgian Court Lakewood
where Lord Decies went yesterday aud
where his English friends, whe had
some delay over their gifts at the Gus
tom house, will follow tomorrow
