on the board by the lack OF funds. :"
A spirit OF good cheer prevails with
none OF the institutional air. though
the dicipline is strict and the regula-

But who can withhold himself from
speaking?- iv,3.
For all the people wept when they heard
the words Of the law.-Nehemiah viii, 9.
But thou, O Lord, art shield for me;
my glory, and the litter up of mine head.
Psalm iii, 3.

sing praise to thy name, o thou most high.
Psalm tx, 2.
Howbeit thou art just in all that is
brought upon US; for thou hast done right,
but we have done wickedly.-N Nehemiah
tx, 33.
Moreover thou leddest them in the day
by cloudy pillar; and in the night by a
pillar Of fire, to give them light in the way
wherein they should go.-Nehemiah tx, II.
And testified against them, that thou
highest bring them again unto thy law;
yet they dealt proudly, and hardened not
unto thy commandments, but sinned
against thy judgments, (Which if man do,
he shall live in them;) and withdrew the
shoulder, and hardened the neck and would
not hear.-Nehemiah tx, 20.

Men of Courage Needed.
Edgeficld Is. c. Advertiser.

Edgefe!d Is. c. Advertiser.I
One great need of this day and genera
ton is men who are willing to stand or fall
alone, not waiting to see what others are
going to say or do in certain exigency.
In recent issue of the WATERFORD Press
and Standard this statement was made in
discussing the whisky situation in Colleton
County: "a rumor is going the rounds in
the streets that prominent attorney has
said that he would agree to refuse to take
blind tiger cases, if the other attorneys at
this bar would do likewise.''
1t seems that this particular member of
the WATERFORD bar had a good impulse, his
conscience giving direction to what course
he should pursue, but he was lacking the
courage to act upon it. Why did he not
say: "Let other lawyers do as their sense
of duty and their conception of professional
propriety directs, but as for me will not
defend men who bear the ear-marks of a
blind tiger" Such a stand as that would
have wholesome effect upon the bar and
upon the community.
The Advertiser is pleased to state that
there are members of the Edgefeld bar
who will not for stipulated sum undertake
the defense Of men who are known to sell
whisky in defiance of law and to the de-
moralization of the community. Further
more, these attorneys do not hesitate to
take such stand openly. WATERFORD
needs few lawyers of this type.

1t is significant, we think, that young
society woman of large city should have
announced her dissatisfaction and disgust
with life devoted to the pleasures of So
ciety. ''No life is so monotonous and dull
as modern society life," she says, "and
am detetermined to make something differ
ent of myself" The young woman's sense
of dissatisfaction helps to reveal the empti-
ness of life given over wholly to selfish
pleasure. Life is empty and barren of any
real happiness without something worth
while to do for the glory of God and the
good of our fellow men. God help US to
listen intently for the still small voice in
our souls, the voice of duty, the voice of
unselfishness, the voice of the Spirit of God.

NOT BY BREAD ALONE.

The course of life pursued by many per-
sons of this day would lead us to believe
that large number of individuals think
that man does live by bread alone.
In many ways this is an age of material
ism. AS such, it should not be decried or
denounced. Our physical surroundings
are dependent upon the manner in which
we deal with the material.
In any fight for righteousness the strong
arm is as necessary as the calm mind and
the spiritual inclination. In any attempt at
charity the helping hand is as important as
the kindly feeling which prompts its action.
We cannot live wholly spiritual lives so
long as We possess physical bodies, and we
must not live wholly material lives so long
aswe harbor souls. What we should do is
to admit the proper measure of each.
Bread-whch means the physical part
of life-has its place, and it is high place.
1t is as wrong to deny this as to exaggerate
it. There is a spiritual side to the everyday
processes of life which is too often over
looked. Sleeping and eating and exercis-
ing are mighty good forms Of prayer, when
properly INDUCED. They prepare and
strengthen US for our higher work.
Some persons, however, make them gods
dilO CdSt oil oIiICI gus W IIO "AuOo. AAO0C
are they who seek in life nothing butsense-
pleasures, and who usually end up mired
in the marsh of disgrace or disease.
Other persons make equally wrong use
of the spiritual side of life. They live in
the clouds of faith and fail to do the rea
work laid out for them. They regard as
sinful every desire for right pleasure, and
if they had their way, they would paint the
sky gray and make the sun wear blue
glasses.
Such extremes are met every day. Be-
tween them is the ideal mean-the person
who is full of healthy appetite and at the
same time strong enough in spirit to prop
erly curb desire and earnestly seek the
higher good through the lower means.
God does not ask that we should be
monks or sensualists, but that we should
be men, so using our bodies and the ma.
terial forces at hand as to gain the creates
measure of good for ourselves and ou1
fellow-men
We must not bank too much on what We
call prosperity, neither should we despist
the practical means by which victories fo1
righteousness are won. We must be of thu
world in some measure, but our alliance
with the world should always be basee
upon this proposition-that the material il
he most effective roadmaker for tn.
spiritual.

From Our State Exchanges

Mansfield Enterprise: Admiral Dewey
says that an ''inadequate navy is an invi-
tation for war" A more profound truth
can not be found outside the lids of the
Holy Bible.
Louisiana Democrat: Thanks to an
aroused public sentiment, we will not have
the wholesale changes of text books in the
public schools of the State, which has been
customary heretofore.
Vinton Booster: A hen can't pillow, hoe
corn or split wood, but she can get there
just the same. She doesn't cost more than
drink of whisky or plug of tobacco,
but she can pay eight per cent interest on
S25 and pay her board. Take an old
speckle hen that has had no raising at all,
one that has been thrown out of the corn
crib, kicked off the porch by the hired girl
and chased out Of the yard by worthless
pup, and just that kind of hen will pay
expenses and clear aaout So year if half
cared for.
Baton Rouge Country Review: The
collapse Of portion of the walls of the
old Hotel Royal in New Orleans marks the
beginning of the end of building of more
than usual interest to Louisianians. 1t is
not so old as other buildings in New Or
leans, but because at the time it was built
it was perhaps the finest hotel building in
America, it having cost 81 $780, 900, and
because of its intimate connection with
the early history and development of the
lower Mississippi Valley it is rich in histor-
zeal significance. It's richly embellished
dome, its fine old circular staircase extend
ing from foundation to dome, its old auc-
ton block where negro slaves we're sold,
made it an object of attraction to travellers
and antiqurians. Thus passes away the
glory of the world.
Lake Charles Times: Another so-called
"joy ride" in New Orleans has ended dis
astrously. Will the time never come when
men, and particularly young men, who
wish to SOW wild oats, begin to realize that
such amusement is the most dearly paid
for of any to be imagined. 1t robs the
girl of her character and name; it breaks
the hearts of the gray-haired parents, it
sets an example to the younger set, it ruins
the health and happiness of those who in
dulge. At the end of every so-called
"joy ride" comes the settlement, and the
person never lived who was willing to pay
the price. Yetit is paid unwillingly. 1t
is paid sometimes in death, sometimes in
loss of name and position, very often in
loss of fortune, and always in tears and
remorse. "Joy rides" may cause mo-
mentary pleasure, but to the sober, think
ing, level headed, honest and God-fearing
young man and woman, are the last thing
in the world to be longed for.
