PROGRESS
WHAT 1T is, AND WHY 1T COMES.
BY L. NJ. HEWITT.

Every living human has in his ma
ture an all-consuming desire for the
artistic, the beautiful, the pleasant.
This is simply the God in man. This
nature begins to develop as soon as
the eye FIRST beholds the light of day,
and its strength grows with the nat
ural development of the mind. The
early environments determine the
scope of usefulness to which this won
derfu sense is to be in later life. The
gardener looks upon beautiful rose
and will at once strive to bring out
new features OF beauty. The artist
looks upon beautiful scene and i'm
mediately transfers it to canvas, but
strives to increase its grandeur. The
landscape engineer dreams out beau
tiful park. transfers his dream to pa
per and finally its wonderland is open
ed up to the gaze of the populace.
Another landscape gardener comes,
beholds, ana endeavors to surpass.
This is prseress.
Progress is propelled by the spirit
of development in man. II 1t were not
for this divine spirit in man, the hui
man race woald have become extinct
ere 1t ever reached its wonderful civil
ization as Witnessed by the grandeur
Of Athens two thousand years ago.
II is inevitable that man must pro-
gress or retrograde. He must go for
ward or backward. There is no such
thing as standing still The muscles
held inactive become useless and die.
The mind kept In constant action
dreams new dreams, which, by the
power of man, become actual Great
ures. Every new development must
first be dreamed out in the mind of
man, and by him transferred to the
eyes of others as an actual thing. The
new engenders a desire to surpass,
hence a progress. This process began
with the savage in the jungle and has
developed into our present civilization
We look for q reason. Scientists tell
us that it is evolution, but the plain
everyday, hard-headed, common bust
ness man tells us that it is the desire

GREAT. CROWDS
ATTEND lam REVIVAL
Three Great Services Held Yesterday
and Tent Filled to Overflow
ing at Each.

The Ham revival, under the aus
pieces of the churches, is growing in
interest and reaching many people in
Bryan. Yesterday morning the con-
gregation was large and inspiring, not
withstanding the threatening weather.
The tent was full of worshipers and
Evangelist Ha mspoke on the fruits
OF the Spirit and showed what OPP
posed men being spiritual. There are
two ways to Judge conduct. One is to
Judge morally and the other is to
Judge spiritually. What the body or
flesh desires is always wrong. The
spirit is always opposed to the flesh.
Love is the chief of all graces and is
the choicest fruit the Christian bears.
All others are only counterparts Of
love. Love bears all things, endures
all things. Love never fails. The con-

than ever to be led by the Spirit.
In the afternoon the tent was filled
with men only to hear the evangelist
on the subject previously announced.
He treated the subject strictly from
"a Bible viewpoint. He said God had
set His seal against it and it was con-
demned throughout the Bible. He
gave instances of the. sins of women
in this line and emphasized the fact
that God would bring every one into
judgment There are two standards
of hving-one for men and one for
women You men who have wrecked
the lives of women and still have a
place in the society of this world, GOD
will one day bring you into Judgment.
The sermon closed with one of the
most touching appeals to the men, IL
they loved mother or wife or sister, to
live clean lives and to never harm or
allow others to speak reproachfully of
woman. The whole audience rose in
approval of what he said.
Last night it was estimated that
two thousand persons heard the SER
mon on The Judgment" Nobody
could reproduce it. He was afire with
his subject and spoke so that about
fifteen persons came forward to con-
fess Christ. Hundreds of persons
stood and sat on the outside. Every
effort will be made to take care of all
who attend the meetings.

to attract In business this is true.
A few years ago you could go down
Main street in this city and not a.
single modern store front would re-
lieve the monotony of ancient archi-
lecture One store was remodeled.
Others followed, as matter of self
preservation Today these same mer-
chants reap the benefit of the improve
ment by the extended scope of trade
territory. Improvement attracts at
tention. Civilization tells that the mo.
tive power driving progress is the di-
vine in man. It's that part in our being
which lifts us above the animal and
keeps us "a little lower than the an
gels" Remove from the nature of a
man his desire to improve and you
leave fossil. Separate man from
the love of the beautiful and good, and
you develop beast. Why is IL that
we sometimes cry out, Give us the
good odl days." It's the memory of
some favorite nook in the old home,
some shady garden beautiful with
mothers flowers, our favorite school
or church But we do not want the
"old days" We want to improve the
present
We live in the greatest age of the
world, made so by its continual spirit
OF progress. The next age will be
greater than this, because of the de-
velopment of this age. The farmer of
today, the merchant of today, the
scholar of today, look back and won
der how their fathers existed without
this or that convenience of today.
Likewise our children will look back
at us.
Look around you and see If this
spirit is universal In your iTluirJ

UNION HILL.

For some time the correspondent
at Union Hill has been silent, but
there has been news and | will try
and give some of it.
Crops are now growing, especially
Irish potatoes seem good. Cotton is
coming up and farmers are getting
over the blues" Corn is poor and
very late.
Union Hill is still on boom. There
have been several changes. Our old
neighbors, Tom Carson and family,
have moved to the Providence neigh
borhood. Our loss but their gain. Mr..
Payne and family, however have
moved among us.
We had fine lecture at the Hill
recently by Prof. r. H, Leavell OF A.
& NJ. College and all enjoyed it. His
subject was "The Good Samaritan"
1t is so kind and good for the college
people to come out and help us; in
fact, all the college people seem to be
perfectly willing to help advance a
good cause and they are great factors
in advancement.
We had quite an audience at the
league last evening. We are to have
preaching on Saturday at 5 p. m. by
Rev. Nash, and we look forward with
pleasure for the time to come On
account of inclement weather he has
not held his appointment for some
months past.
Mr.. Editor, we want you to come
out and be one among us on Sunday,
May IL, our Mothers Day at the Hill.
Get here by s p. m. and wear white
rose, and we will show you what Union
Hill is doing We are to have two ad.
dresses, besides our regular program.
One address will be by Bryan man
and the other by an A. & NJ. College
gentleman. Come one, come all, and
wear a white rose for mother. An au-
thor has said: Most all the other
beautiful things in life come by twos
and threes, by dozens and hundreds.
Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rain
bows, brothers and sisters, aunts,
cousins. but only one mother in all
the wide world" SO let us honor this
day, honor the one who learned us all
the Now lay me down to Sleep" etc.
Union Hill is preparing for a great
revival service to commence on July

s. C. EXPERIMENT STATION
Selecting and Preparing Show Corn.
Extension Article No. 81.

1t has been claimed by some that
the success OF some corn breeders has
been due not so much to their aDlllt9
to produce high yields as to thell
ability to select winning show sam
pies. Now while a high yield of corn
IS of primary Importance to the farm
er, the ability to select a good sho"
sample should not be sighted in any
way.
In selecting a sample, the main
idea to keep in mind is uniformity.
Uniformity of shape, size, color and
indentation in one sample will often
win over another sample which con-
tains a lot of very good Individual
ears which are not alike.
See that the ears are OF as nearly
the same length and circumference as
,ossible. Discard those ears that are
not cylindrical in shape, that is, see
that they are round and that they ia
Der as little as possible from butt to
tin. Color has reference to both the
grains and cobs. In a sample or Wnlte
corn see that there are no yellow
grains or red cobs (unless 1t be a req
.cobbed, white variety, which is un-
usual). In a yellow variety see that
there are no white grains or white
cobs, In fact, even a pink cob is oD-
jectionable in yellow corn. The deep.
dark red is preferred. The matter OF
color is even carried further than Is
indicated in the above sentences, lot
It is desirable to have the ears OF sam.
ples of the same shade Of white or OF
yellow, as the case may be-.
BY the indentation we mean the
wrinkled portion of the top OF the
grains. See that the ears are OF the
same roughness or smoothness in TINS
respect. A very sharp grained a is
undesirable, so also is a very smooth
grained a r
The next thing to consider is the
individual ears in the sample. Select
only those which are straight. rave
the rows of grains running straient
I'D and down the ear. Have the rows
of grains running uniformly and wen
w out over the butts and tips II 10
such an extent that the tip is entire
" covered with grains and that a
cup-shaped cavity is formed at tne
butt. where the ear is fastened on TO
the stalk; and be sure to see that the
space between the rows of grains are
as narrow as possible. Finally see
that the ears are solid, that is, they
should be so firm that you cannot
twist them in your hands or move the
grains with your fingers.
Now take your knife and remove
from the ears all pieces OF husks ano
silks. Cut out all the portion OF tnE
stalk that remains attached - me cop
at the butt end. Scrape all the por-
tions of the cob that you cut WIN tie
knife so that the cut is not lett smooth
and clean. n;ooo
Wrap each ear separately in a piece
of newspaper and pack careiully ~
a box. If you are so fortunate as TO
he able to arrange your sample IN 'lie
show room, put the longest a on
the right and the next longest neNt "
Il and so on down, having the shorles'
ear on the left of the sample:
Do not kick if the judges don't give
your sample first place, out tps u 81
iect a better sample next time.
Prof. M. S. Gardner.
