FOR COUNTY DRAIN COMMITS
SIONER.

L. w Redman, the present encum-
bent of the office, who now seeks the
nomination for a second term for the
office of County Drain Commissioner
has made record during his present
term, for which he will never need
feel ashamed During his present
term he has laid out and sold nearly
so drains, some of which have been
large ones covering extensive drain
age districts and UP to date there has
been but one Board Of Review called
out to review his assessments and
in this case after spending three days
checking up his figures on an eleven
mile drain the Board sustained his
assessment.
Being surveyor and civil engineer
himself and thoroughly convVsant
in all the details of the office and a
hard worker, together with the fact
that the office is being handled eco
nomically it would seem but just and
good business judgment upon the
part of the voters to give Mr.. Red
man the nomination for a second
term.

K few weeks ago, under the order

poles and wires Of the Consolidated
Light & Power Company which oc-
cupied the main street of the city

out of business because it had not
removed its poles and wires from the

poles and wires removed the council
failed to empower the company to
occupy alleys or other streets. The
hasty action on the part of the city
will undoubtedly cost it quite a sum

mandcd redress. and the council will

have to re-establish the company or

SOME GREAT GIVERS
BY MRS. r. w. MAcDoNELL

The necessity for money In modern
church and philanthropic works is
so apparent that the need of 8. stem
in securing II Is unquestioned. Money
represents service as truly as the gift
Of talents. 1t represents the indiv Id ual
as truly as do his hours Of service.
Those who have followed the plan
Of systematic giving have found 1t
a Joy and often the beginning of A.
nancial prosperity.
Years ago knew one great giver
whose means were limited. She be-
gan tithing as a result of convictions;
and while she never had much
money. those who worked with Mrs
Eliza Manley in old Mulberry-Street
Methodist church, in Macon, Ga, Will
remember how she always was ready
to respond to any appeal the church
made. We wondered what she would
have done had she owned more. Inere
are those In the church today who
learn to give through the example of
this modest woman in the long ago.
Old ~ Mulberry Street Methodist
church held others whose consciences
were aroused by the faithful preach
Ing on the Bible doctrine of the uthe
by Bishop Joseph Key. who was for
many years pastor of the church. Mr.
IdlUeF "llllnknHin, ybuu6 fHdtIiSa
man just beg inning his business
career, heard one OF these sermons
and was so convicted that he talked
the matter over with his wife. and
they both determined to be obedient
to the law He was a member of the
Baptist church. she of the Methodist
As partners In all enterprises, they de-
termined to share their 1.-THE between
the two churches. The next day wit
messed the beginning of their fidelity
to law. When the first dollar was
made, 1t was changed and the dime
placed in drawer that was called
the Lords drawer. Later on. when
the dimes grew to dollars. because he
was pro pered greatly, it was heees,
eary to bank the Lords money. and
regular system of bookkeeping was
begun which carried one account for
themselves and one for the Lord, With
an available fund like this the neces-
sity Of wise expenditure became evil
dent. and they felt that Christian
stewardship included a faithful study
the investment of the Lords
money.
1t was not long before their gift

nd embrace the fitting of young men
nd women for life by giving them the
ivantage Of Christian education.

scholarships for earnest students were
placed In the hands of the president
of Wesleyan college, and Mercer uni
vers.ty. These scholarships grew I'M
til every year there were not less
than six in each institution who en-
1oyed the benefit of the heneficence.
So unostentatiousiy did they give that
even members of their own family did
not recognize how large their bene-
violence had become. They them
selves scarcely realized how many
and how wide had become their min
istries.
For more than twenty years they
followed this habit of tithing. when
again great conviction came to the
husband in a sermon on the Same
subject in which was emphasized the
thought that the 1.-THE belonged TO the
Lord, and that in paying the same
men did not give to the Lord, 1, was
MS own interest on what he had loan
ed them. So deep did this convic-
ton take hold of this earnest man
tnat again he called his wife into con-
ference, and they agreed that they
now wanted some JOY of giving.
Heretofore II had been the Lords
own they were rendering an account
OF. The Lords account in the bank
then grew TO one-eighth Of their 4s.-=
come The henevolences Increased.
and the JOY of giving truly was theirs.
We cannot forget how, when need
ing a scholarship for a young woman
who wished to become a. deaconeSs

SO nearly empty that We dared net

sary of their wedding day by send

pended that often Mr.. wiiiingham's
own people did not know OF them.
