GIVES THEM A HcME
HELPLESS OF THE LUTHERAj
CHURCH PROVIDED FOR.
Believed That This Is Largest Single
Gift Ever Made This Church in the

The definite announcement Of the
acceptance of a very large gift for
the work Of benevolence has just
been announced by the special COM
mittee of the Evangelical Lutheran
Synod Of South Carolina.
The offer was made to the synod
last November by Mrs. Melissa B..
Lowman Of Chaplin, Tor the establish
ment of home for the helpless and
the aged, and for the beginning of q
deaconness training school.
All papers for tho transfer Of the
property have been regularly executed
and the establishment OF the home
will be made at once. .4.. u,
The gift of Mrs. Lowman consists
Of about 1000 acres OF fine farming
land, we'll wooded and watered, in
the vicinity of White Rock. With
this goes houses and lots In the
towns Of Chaplin and White Rock.
There are also several houses and
improvements on the plantation. A
conservative valuation Of Mrs. Low
mans gift, including nearly s2,vUu
in cash, places it at $4,000.
The gift provides that Mrs. Lcs.
man and her three helpless children
shall be cared for during their life
time.
The committee having in charge
the management of the donation con-
slsts of five members: Rev. w. H.
Greever and Rev. G. E. Weltner of
Columbia, Rev. J. B. Haigler OF
White Rock, w. P. Roof of Lexing-
ton, Jas. W. Shealy of Ballentine.
The committee has selected Mr..
Shealy to superintend the farm and
home. A matron will at once be
placed in charge as soon as a suit
able person can be secured, ond thus
the work Of caring for the helpless
and aged ones of the church will at
once be put into effect.
It is also a matter Of note that this
is perhaps the largest single gift ever
made to the Lutheran church in the
South and marks the beginning Of
what must grow into large and use
full elnosynary institution.
The establishment Of the deacon
ness home and training school, con-
templated in the gift, has not as
sumed definite shape SO that an an
nouncement as to its location can be
made at this time.

You ask for line, ah, lady mine,
I answer to thee, line on line,
Precept on precept, make them
thine.
And in each line is breathed a
prayer
That, as thy face is fresh and fair,
So may thy soul be free from care.
AS thy young life is in it's bloom,
I pray no mortal stroke Of doom
May bow thy beauty to the tomb.
But, that long coming years may
bring
To thee the brightness Of the
spring.
When little birds in gladness sing.
l look upon thee, thou art fair
Youth lends a glory to thlns hair
And beauty loves to linger there,
You cannot move but it is grace,
Time leaves no token on a face
Where only purity we trace.
And now a precept I would bind
Upon thy brow, that it may find
A deeper dwelling in thy mind.
There is a blossom pure and
bright,
Slender and beautifully alight
With silver, 'tis the lily white.
The puritan of all sweet flowers.
The meekest bud mid beauty'j
bowers,
She lifts her patience through the
hours.
here is a blossom ruby red.
Through all the world her blush
hath spread,
The royal rose with crimson head.
We view her in the dewY dawn,
A fragrant benediction born
To bless us, ere we find the thorn.
There are two paths in life's rough
way,
The one all roses, bright and gay.
The other where the lilies Icy.
Before thy feet both paths unfold,
Look to the guidepost grim and
old,
Only the lilies hearts are g0!i.
