Mt. Croehan Jail
Seized and Closed

A legal proceeding unique in
the annals of South Caroline
jurisprudence is the seizure of
the Mt. Croghan city jail.
Mr.. G. w. Moore, 1T seems.
owned the land on which rested
the town lookup and requested
pay for same. For answer, so 1T
is said, the town authorities re.
moved the the lookup, jail or
jug, as you may wish to call it,
into the public highway.
To furtner guide his action in
the matter Mr.. Moore very wise
ly came to Chesterfield. where
he called upon Messrs. Hanna
and Hunley for their wisest
counsel.
Result: A log chain, so to
speak, was metaphorically placed
around toe city Jail Of Mt. Crog-
han, so that none can enter nor
leave said jug or Jail until the
case is settled.

When the fact became known
that this great qantity Of trouble

apprehensive. But nothing hap

The Rural Police

That Chesterfield County has
an efficient force of rural police
goes without saying. These gen.
tlemen are always on Ghe job
and in the performance of their
duty, while fearless to q man,
often exercise a fine sense Of
discrimination where slight Of
fenses are concerned. These
things are we'll known, but the
years record as shown on the
county's books will probably
prove interesting.
Since the organization of this
force in place of the former con-
stables, the entire salaries up to
Dec. 18th, 1915 amounts to
SS, 100.
The cash brought into the
treasury through fines paid, due
10 arrests by the rural police,
amounts to SO, ,244.50.
Mum mber of days worked on
the chain gain, 1880. The esti-
mated value of a days work on
the gang is 60 cents. This
makes the total value to the
county of said work, 81, 4,42S.
Thus the income through tire
activity of the police has been
Sl2,672.5O at an expense Of
SO, 100.

Christmas Sermon
AT St. Paul Church

AT st. Paul Methodist Church
last Sunday morning the Rev. j.
l.. Tyler preached an excellent
Christmas sermon. He dwelt
largely upon the symbolic i'm
port of the remarka BILE incidents
attending the birth of the
Savior.
HIS text consisted of three
references to the occurrences:
Suddenly there was with the
angel multitude of the heaven
ly hosts" And when they had
opened their treasures, they pre-
sented unto him gifts, gold,
frankincense and myrrh;" The
shepherds said one to another,
let us now go unto Bethlehem.n -
Jesus never lacked for loJ al
servants" said he. ether. was
always a great multitude of the
heavenly host ever ready TO
serve him, to accom- pany Kim
wherever he went. So on this
occasion, the greatest in the
earth's history, they could not
remain quiet but must accom-.
pany him to the earth and there
sing for him, thus performing a
beautiful service. While the
angels stood ever to serve him.
he never called upon them, for
ne came to serve. His mission
was to lift Che world up by his
own service.
LII the Garden Of Gethse.
name he could have called
twelve legions of angles to serve
him but did not, remembering
his mission was to miGister, not
to be ministered unto.
80 we learn from his life that
real JOY comes from giving, Civ
ing OF oneself and of ones SER
vices He refused the service
of the angels that he might give
himself, even his life.
The visit OF the wise men is
significant. They are generally
considered three in mum Der and
comiL G from three parts of the
inhabited earth. They had seen
his star and came bearing gifts
A weary world was expecting a
Savior and these wi ;e men knew
by the appearance Of an unusu.
ally bright star that he had
come. Each brought a seperate
gift. Tie gold is a kingly gift:
frankincense is used in offering
OF incense in worship, and myrrh
ls a purifyer. Thus the symbol
is complete Every life that is
offered to Christ in Worship is
purified thereby
The humbl shepheards,"
said the preacher, were the
first human beings to heraldt he
coming of the Great Shepheard.
In sending someone TO the earth
God could have sent angels in
great numbers but Instead he
send the best he hadAeHis own
Son, the best that heavl, IN afford.
Ell. When we give giftA we u.s.
ually give what we can Well af-
ford. What are you giving to
God? Are you giving your best
your life to him! Determine
that you will give him your best
gift during the C, ming Year.
He is our Shepherd and shall
be the Shepherd of our children
1t is happy thought said
the minister. "one to inspire MS
with optimism, that the Great
Shepherd will continue to lead
the world towards righteous
ness"
In closing his remarks Mr.
Tyler made an urgent Iplea t,
