Church by the Christian congre-
CATION is progressing nicely and
much good as we'll as definent
work is being accomplished.
The congregational business
meeting Monday evening was a
great success. Evangelist O. G..
White really stirred the members
to action and they have caught
the vision of better things for
Williamson in the future. We
have plans on foot now to put the
work of the building in motion
again. Every man willing to do
what he can. therefore the work
of the building will go on. With
every man in the church CO.
operating with God in the work
and willing to be used there is
no force in the world able to pre-
vent the work from being done.
Bro. White will deliyer the
lecture that was to have been
given last Lords Day afternoon,
next Lords Day at 800 p
The subject is "A Little Child
Shall Lead Them-Where?"
We expect to hold this service
in the Opera House, but more
definite announcements will be
made later. This lecture will be
given to married people and
teachers.

HEED THE WARNING
Many Williamson People Have
Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warnings that should
not be ignored. BY examining the
urine and treating the. kidneys upon
the first sign of disorder, many days
of suffering may be saved. Sick kid
neys expel a dark, il1-smelling urine,
full Of ''brickdust' sediment and
painful in passage. Sluggish kid
neys cause a dull pain in the small Of
the back, headaches, dizzy spells,
tired, languid feelings and frequent
rheumatic twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only; they help sick kidneys, and
rid the blood of uric poison. If you
suffer from any of the above symptoms

AGRICULTURE
IN OUR RURAL SCHOOLS

The law requiring the teaching of
elementary agriculture in the rural
schools has been in force sufficient
ly long for us to begin to expect re-
suits. Perhaps we expect results
to be evident too soon, but our ex-
pectation has tendency to center
our thoughts at different times on
the schools itself. We talk about
school more, we lend greater as
sistance to our teachers When we
do so we find out whether or not
they are teaching agriculture effect
lively, we know whether or not they
are really training our boys and
girls for their life work, which for
the most part will be agricultural
work.
We must educate the child in
terms of his environment to the
end that he may be more efficient
as a man and to the end that his
life may be made the fuller and the
richer. Classical education Is not
to be despised, but the practical
should and must assert itself.
Nine out Of ten children In the
rural schools are destined for the
farm. They are entitled to that ed
ucation which will best fit them for
their life work. The rural school
must give them the fundamental
principle Of this education,
Some people scott at agricultural
teachings and at agricultural
schools, but the great majority OF
our people realize today that agri-
culture Is a science and that farm
ing Is a business. Our adult farm
ers are studying agriculture as new
er before. There Is q GREAT agrlcul-
tural awakening In the state. We
should reap great results from II.

A FEW THOUGHTS AS WE PASS

days of greed for gain and spolls
the Golden Rule has been perverted
TO- read: DO unto others as others
would do unto you, and do it first
And in that statement there is
more truth than fiction.
%
Over in Randolph county there
is man who is certainly possessed
with the gift of continuance and
perseverance. Black Mccoy has
announced his candidacy for county
Judge of that county, a thing ne
has done regularly every two years
for the past twenty-eight years. ne
has never been elected. The man
who will make fourteen unsuccess-
full races for one Office and is still
game enough to get in the ring
again certainly deserves something
in the shape Of a majority vote II
mortal man ever did.
o.
United States Senator Hepburn
of Idaho has erupted again. Hey
burn enjoys the distinction OF being
the only man in the United States
senate who will defame the Confed-
crate soldier, both living and dead,
with tongue both unsparine and
ruthless. To defame the Southern
soldier and Southern traditions
seems to be his principal mission
in the senate, and he attends to his
business strictly. Hepburn stood
alone against the proposition to
place a statue of General Robert E.
Lee in the Hall Of Fame. His re-
marks concerning Lee and the Con-
federacy were most caustic. Re-
Gently Hepburn attempted to have
an old Southern negro thrown out
of his job as one of the care-takers
of the capitol building, at a small
salary. This old negro was once
the servant of Jefferson Davis. This
aroused Heyburn's ire, and called
from him great belches of denun-
citation for the South. Only last
week Hepburn bitterly opposed an
appropriation for the erection of
monument to the Confederate dead
naval heroes in the Vicksbure ma
tional park. 1T is intolerable that
the deeds of Confederate armies
should be referred to in laws that
call upon the public treasury for
appropriations" declared Hepburn.
But Hepburn is in a class all his
own No other Northern senator
seems to have the same disease as
Hepburn, at least not in such vio-
lent form. All others can see in
the deeds Of both armies many acts
of bravery to admire. Heyburn's
view Is one-sided. All others, even
if they believe the South wrong in
its contention, admit that the
Southern soldier was fighting for
principle Of right from his view
point and vas therefore, right or
wrong, q patriot. All can sec that
but Hepburn Men Of his callbre are a
national misfortune when they get
into the United States senate. All
sections of the country are not
brought closer together by such
men. During one of Heyburns
TRADES against the South, Senator
Robert L. Taylor, the gifted son of
Tennessee, arose and In these few
words very aptly expressed the sit
uation: The war Is over. Time
has pulled down the forts and
healed the wounds. Men who wore
the gray delight to honor the men
who wore the blue, but they do not
like to honor the men who never
smelled powder and who stand here
and unlimber their batteries Of Bit
terness against the simple proposal
to erect monuments to Southern
heroes"
