The services in the opera house on
Sunday evening were under the aus
pices of the Young Mems Christian
association of the college, and the ad-
dress was by the Rev. H. A. McCul-
lough, class of '93, of Columbia. Life
With Margin" was the subject of his
notable address, which was delivered
with fine force and effect, and which
held the close attention of his large
audience.
The Orpheus club rendered music.
The opening services were led by
DR.. Jas. D. Kinard, president of the
South Carolina synod. The scripture
lesson for the evening was read by
the Rev. J. B. Harmon, pastor of May
! er Memorial Lutheran church.
Prayer was offered by Dr. Robert L..
Patterson.
Following is a brief synopsis of the
sermon by Rev Mr. Mccullough, which
presents his line of thought:
"Liie With Margin"
There are things, said the speaker,
where the rule of right and wrong is
so plainly markd out that there is no
question as to the Christians duty.
There are some boundary lines, as be-
tween the States of Ohio and Kntucky,
plain and easily seen. Others, as be-
tween South Carolina and North Caro-
lima, while they are established and
can be located by surveyors, yet any
man may cross from one State to the
other without knowing or intending it..
Truth and error are clearly divided;
so temperance and abstinence. But who
can locate the line between temper
ance and intemperance, education and
ignorance, sonity and insanity?

The able addresses OF these dlstln-

practical value, and the thoughts
which they presented were in excel

Newberry college sends forth this
week a class of twenty young men
and two young women. In loyalty to
the finest and truest that is in college
life. it is one of the best classes New
berry college has given to the activl-

.The Ministry of Gifts" was the
theme of DR.. Patterson's baccalaureate,
addressed to the class of 1912. The
earnest thought and the irresistible
logic of the speaker were couched in
beautiful and appealing language, and

COLORED RAIN AND SNOW.
And In Volcanic Regions Gray Hail Is
Relatively Common

And In Volcanic Regions Gray Hail Is
Relatively Common
In certain parts of Spain during last
winter red and black snow fell The
phenomenon is explained as being due
to the presence in the atmosphere in
unusual quantities of certain mineral
salts. History mentions a day when
the heavens rained blood" In the mid
die ages such an occurrence was ac-
copied as predicting war or famine. or.
at any rate, shedding of blood.
The presence of a micro organism
seems always to accompany red rain.
In volcanic regions gray hail is rela-
lively common. In Sicily this has been
observed very often. because the high
er layers of the atmosphere are filled
with ashes from Mount Etna. During
the past century there have been black
rains in England twice. and on both oc-
casions the color was due to the pres
ence Of micro organisms.
A curious fall of red snow is observed
sometimes in the Alps in spring. but
black snow is a rarity. Last spring in
the mountains that surround the valley

black has been noticed. 1t formed a
crust Of some centimeters in thickness
and extended over the white snow
which had fallen on previous days.
This strange occurrence has not been
satisfactorily explained. but it is sup
posed that the volcanic ashes from
Etna were carried by the winds and

Roman Masons' Tools,

The excavations at Pompeii and Her
culaneum have unearthed masons
tools much resembling those in use to-
day and demonstrated the freer use of
large tiles. the employment of iron to
tie together brick and stone work
and the use of kind Of concrete Of
which lime was the binding medium
and finely broken brick a favorite ma
terial. The dome of the Pantheon.
built in the first century of the Chris
tan era. still testifies to the enduring
nature of the concrete superstructure
albeit bound with lime and not with
cement.-Nat ional Magazine.

A Capful of Wind.

The origin of the phrase "a cupful
of wind can be traced to Morse
king, Eric vi. who died in 9O1 A. d.
He was credited with the useful power
of directing the wind to blow where
he wished by the simple method of
turning his cap to that point of the
compass. His powers were much APP
preciated and trusted and resulted In
his being known as windy cap"
There is no evidence as to whether he
could regulate the force of the wind
as we'll as the direction. Presuma bly,
he could. or his faithful believers
would not have been SO many. A bag
full Of wind" Is another common ex-
preston and indicates something like
a gale This has been traced down to
the classical legend of Aeolus and his
captive winds confined in bags.

RIGHT AND WRONG.
A Conflict of Authority Easily Settled
by Speaker Reed.

by Speaker Reed.
By many observers Reed is now con-
sidered to have been the greatest man
in congress at his time. Such Is the
opinion Of James L. Siayden Of Texas,
who relates the following:
1T was when Reed was speaker and
Bailey was minority leader" said the
Texas congressman. After one OF the
parliamentary battles and on one of
the few occasions that it happened.
Reed had been unquestionably wrong
In his ruling, and Bailey had him in a
tight place. Reed, in one of those clev-
er little speeches from the chair for
which he was famous, told the house
that the speaker was but the servant
of the house and not Its master (Which
was not true in any particular when
Reed was speaker. for he ruled the
house as no other man has before or
since). and wound up by saying that
everything was within the power Of
the house: that If his ruling was wrong
it was in the power of the house to re-
verse him by an appeal. One Of his
heutenants, taking the cue. made the
appeal. The Republican majority
promptly sustained the speaker. as
Reed knew it would.

strict and able parliamen>lrian, and
myself happened to be at the speaker s
desk together.
"Mr. Speaker said Fleming, think
you were wrong in that ruling, and l
have something here that l should like
to read to you to prove my assertion
Tread it, said the speaker in a tone
of condescension.
Fleming read the paragraph, which
showed conclusively that he was right
and Reed was wrong.
"'What book, is that?' abruptly asked
Reed.
"a book on parliamentary law by
Thomas B. Reed replied Fleming

DUMAS AS A COOK.

In a TrouviIle Inn.
The familiar story of the arrival Of
the great Dumas at Trouville on May
afternoon in the thirties is a cheerful
anecdote. Laughing loudly. he crossed
the Tongues carried on the shoulders
of a sturdy Norman peasant and en-
tered the primitive little inn of those
early days with all the clatter and ex-
element which usually distinguished
his movements. ~
La Mere Oseraie, the good woman
who kept it. told him fatty that she re-
ceived none but painters. The Trou-
vile of those days was tiny fishing
village which only a few artists had
discovered. Dumas promptly alleged
that he was painter In words and
even offered to paint-Or write-her
signboard, which The other clients-un-
grateful dogs-had promised. but neg
lected to do. This handsome though
confusing evidence of good faith moi
lifted the good innkeeper, and she con
scented to receive Dumas at the amaZ-
ing price of francs a day. tout com
pris. Trouville was indeed then what
the French term I'm petit trou pas cher
"a little hole not dear"
When the painters. friends whom
Dumas had come to see in their remote
corner. returned toward evening from
the green woods and glades along the
little rivers valley they found the
amiable giant filling the inn with his
cries and laughter and brandishing a
great SnoOn in tho kitrheD where he
was presiding personally over the prep
aration of an evening meal which
promised to run his bill for extras into
figures hitherto unknown in Trouville.
