Colored Union Meeting.
Nov. 14th, 1911.

The officers of the colored union
meeting that WIS held last 5th Sun.
day near Modoo were Rev. R. W.
Kenner. moderator, Shack Hacker,
clerk, ,and 10. Bryant,trea The
following paper was read by Susie
Collier, a colored woman who was
on the program:
Rip Van Wrinkle who had slept
too long and his sleep had thrown
him twenty years behind. So thous-
sands of our people sleep to-day
upon all questions of progressive
development. This brings us to the
serious and solemn thought that the
greatest issue Of the twentieth CEN
tury is missions. The world has been
nineteen centuries opening the gates
of the nations to the gospel. Chris
tianity itself was ungulfed in the
dark age driven to the valleys and
the fastness of mountains until the
reformation of the sixteenth centu-
ry. But since that time the evange-
list and the missionaries have gone
forth to every accessible land with
the sword of conquest. Thecannons of
England have opened gradually
every dark shore and continent to
the Bible, and during this century
for the first time in the history of

Schedule to be Changed.

For the past year the schedule of the
Southern railroad has not given salts
faction, especially to persons going to
Augusta to shop or to attend to other
business. Even when the train is on
time one has but little more than three
hours in the city, and when the south
bound train IS late, whichis frequently
the case, the actual time spent in Au-
gusta is much shorter.
The announcement that a change
will go into effect next Sunday thai
will be, at least in ameasure, more sat
isfactory will be glad news to those
who frequently have business in Angus
ia which requires personal attention.
While in conversation with the editor Oh
The Advertiser few days ago, Mr..
Il. A. Williams, the superintendent OF
the Columbia division, stated that the
new schedule which becomes effective
next Sunday will be an improvement
over the one now in force in that the
departure of the train from Augusta in
the afternoon will be later, giving more
time in the city. Mr.. Williams was
unable to give the exact hour for leav-
ing Augusta, but assured the writer
that change for the better would be
made.

And / want to say, no more efficient
or enthusiastic worker than Mr..
Lott could have been secured. He
engaged the cooperation in this
community of Messrs. w. r. Parks,
w. w. Fowler, J. G. Morgan, w.
G. Blackwell and possibly others,
who will endeavor to demonstrate
to our Farmers what can be accom-
plished by deep ploughing, winter
cover crops and proper fertilization.
The negro who wantonly and ma
liciously fired into the home of Miss
Carrie Burkhalter last week has not
been located at this writing. 1t
seems that this negro Arthur Price
by name, had made way with a bale
of cotton, and young Mr. II. E.
Freeland, who is in Miss Carries
employ, upbraided him for not tell
ing the truth about it, whereupon
the negro became angered, drew his
pistol fired at MIR. Freeland, the
ball taking effect in the door to the
room in which Miss carrie was sit
ting. The people are vigilant and
determined in order to protect Miss
f3urkhalter, to catch the negro, if
money and vigilance can do it.

Sincere Congratulations.

The Advertiser extends sincere con-
gratulations to the officers and promo
tiers of the West-Side Fair for the
splendid success of the third annual
fair that was held last week. Those
who are thoughtful and observing have
cited instances in which the fair has
stimulated the farmers of that section
to greater activities and achievements
along all lines, particularly in stock
raising. The Advertiser has very cheer
fully given literally of its space this
week for the excellent report of the
fair which has been made by our eff
cient and very faithful Parksville cor
respondent.
Here's to the success of the Parks
vile fair of 1912!

God seems now as never before
to be in a great hurry about some
thing. Thousands of young men and
women are rising up and are ready
to do something and thousands are
opening their pocket books to the
great work. Woe to the Rip Van
Winkle who shuts his heart to the
great work now. 1t has taken the
world nineteen centuries to see that
woman was worth something, and
to see that child could be convert
ed and put to learn and labor for
Christ. We have had but little more
conceptions of woman's religious
worth than the heather and it is
only beginning to dawn upon US the
meaning of Christ when he said
suffer the little children to come un-
to me, and forbid them not for of
such is the kingdom of God. Quite
a number of old Rip Van Wrinkles
try to keep down the women and
children, but the world got one and
80 do the women and children. God
help the Rip Van Wrinkles. Let us
also pray for more laborers in the
field. Let US also pray that God
will move the old Rip or the young
Rip or else convert them. They have
no business living in the twentieth
century. The time has come when
all Christians should learn like Paul
that they are debtors for Christ
sake to all men, to the Jew and
Greek, and the free to the black and
the white. All men are of one blood
and in Christ we reach the idea of
the universal brotherhood of man,
are for that mission zeal of Paul
and of all the men ever lived, Paul
was the impersonation and model of
missionaries. Go where you will,
search where you may, you will find
that the greatest benefactor of the
human race was Paul, but woe to
the Rip Van Winkle who wants to
keep all Gods blessings at horre.
