MISSION OF THE
 RURAL CHURCH
SHOULD BE UNIVERSITY OF RE
 LIGloUS LEARNING.
Duty of Christianity to Evanssllzs the
 World.
By Rev. Jno. A. Rice, Q. D. Pastor st. John M E. Church. South.
 St. Louis. Mo.


 Some years ago. the question was asked: What is a college? Ihe at tempt to answer it shook the educa. tional world in America from center to circumference. Another question is now beginning to be asked What is a church? Without undertaking to give a definition of it, let me ask, in this initial paper. what the church is for? The New Testament reveals three distinct tasks to which 1t is committed.
 First. that of evangelization. The church is divinely commissioned to reach for the lowest and the least man in the least land and offer him sonship Co the Eternal God; offer him a divine power, which lifts him out of the bog and places him upon the highest levels of human life, where God and the soul are in fellowship This alone were an immense priv ilege.

Teaching the Art of Living.

The church is commissioned also to teach and train those who are rich with it's eyangelistic message The term, Religious Education, has come to mean a specific thing in our country, namely the training of the people in the local church in those deep matters which pertain to the art of living. 1 am not now speaking of the work of education in schools, colleges and universities, but the work of education at our doors, fin the con gregation. Every agency in reach should be employed to the utmost in this important mission. Indeed, the local church could be made a sort Of university for all the people. in which the simple, practical arts and virtues of everyday life should be taught and enforced Only recently has this special phase of the church's work re ceived anything like adequate atten. tion. The New Testament word for it is Publication.

VIOLATING CHILD LABOR LAW
Factory Inspectors Making Cases for
InfractiOnS of Statutes.

Columbia, April 2-Commissioner
Watson has issued the following:
state Factory Inspectors w. S.
Bonner and S. G.. Grosschel have re-
ported during the past week twelve
violations Of the child labor laws of
this State. Eeach Of these cases has
been prosecuted before local magis-
tralcS. Convictions were obtained
in eight cases; one bond was for
Eeited, and one party jumped into
another State with his family, while
two cases have been continued until
next Tuesday. or these twelve vio-
l1tions one was by a mill superin-
tcAdent, while the other eleven viola
tons were by parents who swore
Falsely to their children's ages, in
order that they might secure work
for them in the cotton mills in the
State.
"The factory inspectors are deter
mined to have the present laws en-
forced, and will trace to the fullest
extent Of the law all ages Of children
found in the mills who are Of doubt
less age. While greatly handicap
ped over the fact that there has not
been in the past a birth registration
law, they have been able to ascer-
tain the correct ages Of the children
through the system OF child labor
blanks adopted by this department
several years ago, giving the age and
place Of birth Of the child, family
Bible records, insurance paper rec
ords, and often going back to the
family doctor who waited on the
mother at the time of the child's
birth and ascertaining the correct in
formation from him. Through these
mediums and others they are now in
position to weed out those under age
children and prosecute both the mill
superintendents and parents"

tAndersOn Mail, March 81
In the death of J. Dave Tice.
which occurred in Columbia at noon
Tuesday, Anderson and Anderson
county SuStains the loss of a good
man. His death was due to compli-
cations following a general break
down some months ago, from which
he never fully recovered. Mr.. Tice
was in the prime Of life, having Just
passed his 4Gth anniversary. He was
of quiet, unassuming disposition,
but a man who made friends readily.
Practically his entire life was spent
in the mill business, and a better
informed man on textile matters
would have been hard to find.
For number Of years he was
superintendent Of the ChiQuola Mills
at Honea Path, and for some time
prior to his illness was superintend-
ent of both the Chiquola and the
Anderson mills, serving both salts
factorily with an assistant.
Mr. lice was perhaps the most
widely known mill man in the South,
numbering his friends not only
among the operatives, but with bust
ness men throughout the country. In
the early days of base ball in this
se' tion he was consider d as one of
the crack pitchers Of tn, country and
was a t.vorite with every one.
He was a member of a number of
fraternal orders, among them the
Masons and the Knights Of Pythias.
Mr.. Tice was also a member of the
Methodist church and took an active
interest in everything looking to-
wards the betterment Of the commu-
nifty in which he lived.
Funeral services will be conducted
at his late residence in Honea Path.

Ar Est IN LA ToURAINE CASE.
NIan Claiming to BE American Sus-
pected of Crime.

Paris, March 31.-Raymond Swo-
boda, one of the passengers aboard
the French line steamship La Tou-
raine, which was imperriled by fire
at sea on March 9Th, has been ar
rested on the charge Of setting fire
to the vessel.
SWOboda was suspected Of having
"close relations with the enemy" and
correspondence found in his room is
said to indicate that he had been
charged with the task of blowing up
the La Touraine. He has been taken
to Havre.
Investigation by experts appointed
by Admiral Charlier, who is conduct
ing the inquiry into the steamship
fire, is said to have established that
flames aboard the La Touraine must
have been caused by the explosion
Of some detonating device. State
ments made by passengers and men,
bers of the Touraine's crew sup
port this theory. The explosion
was sufficiently violent to wrench
loose doors in cabins nearby. Au-
thorities believe the explosive had
been placed with criminal intent in
trunk stored with baggage of first
class passengers in No hold.
Passengers examined at Havrc are
said to have testified that they were
amazed az the statement made one
night during the voyage from New
York to Havrc by fellow-passenger
when they were discussing German
threats to torpedo ships in the war
zone. Swoboda is quoted as having
remarked:
'That isn't the only war zone
that would be dangerous. Germany
IS strong enough to do what she
wants. This ship herself, even be-
fore she reaches the war zone, might
be obliged to have recourse to doc
tors and nurses aboard to care for
passengers"
Only passing heed was given this
assertion at the time. The passen-
ger quoted was listed on the ships
record as "Raymond Swoboda, 3S
years old, American subject; profess
sion financier; destination Paris"
Secret service men found the man
fairly we'll known in Paris financial
circles. He has been connected
with several more or less important
transactions. lie was supposed to
have been a Russian, as he spoke Of
family connections in Petrosrad and
Moscow. lie was arrested at a Paris
hotel.
Remembered i'm New York.
New York, March 31.-Circum-
stances under which Raymond Swo-
boda sailed on La Touraine February
27 for Havre, were clearly recalled
to-day at the Office OF the French
line. He appeared at the office Feb
ruary 26 and presented what ap-
peared to be an American passport,
vised by the Freuch consul here. The
ticket clerk said he was a pleasant
man, about 40 years old, who said
he expected to sell some supplies to
the French government, and after
consultation with different officials
of the line is said to have obtained
permission 10 carry some excess bag
gage, which he said were samples
II is not recalled that he explained
what he wished to sell in France.

ASKS PRAYERS OF CHILDREN.
Austrian Ruler Francis Joseph Still
Loves the Little Ones.
(Cor. Associated Press.D


The love for children which al
ways has been predominant char
acteristiC Of Emperor Francis Joseph
is eXemplitied in a letter from him
TO the boys and girls Of his Empire,
which has just been made public. 1t
is as follows:
"To the Dear Children of Our EN-
pire: If l, on the threshold Of the
grave, address you, dear children, it
is from a variety Of motives. Once
you were the JOY, the comfort, even
at times during my long life, the
only comfort and the only Joy, of
your Kaiser and your King. When
| saw you a sunbeam would pene-
trate into the shadow Of my life
You, dear children, stand nearest to
the heart of your Kaiser and your
King; you are the flowers of En-
pire, the pride Of my people, the
hope of the future.
"But not alone do you stand clos
est to your Kaiser and your King;
but to another beside whom the
mightiest Of this world are only
helpless beings-God, our father. In
your eye there shines the light Of the
morning Of creation; about you
there is still paradise and heaven.
God is almighty, in His hand lies the
destiny of all peoples. Everything
bows TO His will, the stars and man
take their course from Him.
"That the all-powerful hand Of
Hungary, permit it to triumph over
its numerous enemies and strengthen
itself in victory, to the glory and
honor Of GOd-that is the sole re-
naming thing for me to wish after
a life filled with sorrow. That was
my wish as, yOunS AMI hopeful,
ascended the throne Of my fathers;
it will be my wish, which perhaps
may soon issue from my dying lips
as the last token Of my love and
thought for my countries and my
people.
God controls all things as lie
wills. We human beings may do
nothing against Him, nothing with
out Him. And since you, dear chill
dren, stand nearest to God. your
Kaiser and your King begs that you
pray that He may bless us and grant
His grace to our cause. God hears
the prayer Of the innocent because
He loves them, because in them lie
sees His likeness. SO do not cease
to pray with folded hands, even the
smallest Of you.
of the children Of the Empire will
pray for their fatherland, / know
that our star will shine propitiously.
And you will have brought down
blessings upon our flag, upon our
army. Dear children, do not forget
the kingdom to which you belong
here on earth, nor it's old Emperor"
