PROBLEMS OF THE RURAL
CHURCH MUST Enlist IN.
TEREST OF YOUNG PEOPLE

Neither poverty nor prosperity
should seriously interfere With the
influence and power o. the country
church. But it seems that both pros
perity and lack OF it do in some in
stances prevent rural churches from
becoming greater factors for the up
lift OF humanity. Great prosperity
should not cause many farmers TO
move to town and leave the rural
church, the public schooI, roads and
neighborhood leader ship to less able
and less interested men, but it does in
many instances. Snort crops and poor
markets should not cause the church
to be neglected and IT'S influence cir
cumscribed. hut suci: seems to be the
fact.
The rural church IS dependent very
largely upon the fai,n ul, self-sacr1fic-
ing members that rove tnelr neigh
borhood and are willing to do their
part in helping spread the gospel
among men. Wealth is not standard
by which to test the country church,
as little Gosh except the small salary
of the pastor is required. The most
useful church is the church that meets
its opportunity at home among the
young people of the neighborhood
rather than to divide its time and op-
portunity "in the foreign field" Few
country churches have advanced far
beyond the begin COM
mand for evangelizing the world. IN
fact, the greatest need of the country
church and Christian people in rural
communities is to enlist young people,
train them FOR service as rural lead
ars and help them become more eff
,ient producers as we'll as Christian
citizens. This can best be accomplish
ed by resident pastors who undertand
agriculture and rural life, supported
and assisted by church members

PRESIDENT WILSON INVITED
TO VISIT PALMETTO STATE

The Record.
VILLAIN Banks, president of the State
Press association of South Carolina,
stated last night that he had called a
meeting of the executive committee to
be held in this city Friday of next
week to consider the plans and the
program for the next meeting. He re-
quests all of the members to come to
the meeting with suggestions to offer
as to the papers to be read, etc.

meeting, it was decided to hold the

MISCHIEF MAKERS WROUGHT
ALL THE HAVOC IN MEXICC
TO the Editor of The Record:

TO the Editor. of The Record:
In connection with the warning o
y. the president of the United States
against the acceptance of untruthfu
reports circulated by mischief-mak
.ers along the border, it is opportune
to call attention to the propaganda
which aroused public sentiment in che
United States against Porfrio Diaz
who, up to that time, enjoyed repu-
tation throughout the world as one O:
the greatest men of his century.
Diaz realized that education was a
prerequisite to citizenship and when
the Madero revolt was inaugurated
there were day schools and night
schools and scarcely an Indian village
without a teacher. There was a great
agarian problem but Diaz was work
ing with view to its solution. The
condition of the poems touched any
heart with pity, but it was still prob
lem, not unlike the white mans bur
den in the South.
The government of Porfrio Diaz
was not perfect but it was the only
government which in a measure was
fitted to the people and their condition,
until a wiser man could give them
something better. Be his faults what
they may. Mexico and our country
were ten thousand times better off un-
der Diaz than they are today.
The opinion Of the general public
is usually formed from what it reads
and seldom is inquiry made as to the
possibilities Of wilful or unintentional
Misrepresentation The gullibility o.
the American people has made the nee
essary adjuncts to enterprises which |
require for their success a backing of
public sentiment claim to have no
inside information, but newspaper and
magazine tiles and a residence OF sew
eral years in Mexico justify the con-
clusion that somebody's bread has
been eaten" from the songs that have
been sung"
With Bryan's aversion to hearing
both sides, it is not surprising that
the department OF state, as well as
the public were not well informed.
With Bryan's former diplomacy and
Villas press agents, it is only good
fortune that Pancho Villa is not now
president OF Mexico instead of being
q hunted bandit.
Shortly before and during the first
revolution against the constituted gov
ernment of Mexico, there was q propa-

| ganda Of such huge proportions in th
United States against Porfrio Dia
and public and editorial sentiment s
effectively crystallized that there va
scarcely county newspaper that di
not take up the hue and the cry.
Sentiment against Porfrio Diaz wa
aroused to such a pitch that newspa
pers refused to publish articles b,
reputable men who were in a position
to have first-hand knowledge and who
attempted to answer in their columns
the questions, after Diaz, What?' anG
after Huerta. What?''
InfIaming the People.
In 1909, when all in Mexico was as
peaceful as a dream, a series of ar,
ticles in we'll known American mag
azine began an attack on Diaz and
made ready public setiment in the
United States for the Madero reyolu-
ton. To anyone desiring to study the
history Of our Mexican troubles, it is
easy to start at the beginning, ii ref
erence is had to the review and &igests
of current literature written during
that year. 1t will be seen what enor-
nous influence those articles had in
moulding public sentiment aaginst
Diaz, until finally arms and munitions
were permitted to cross the border to
his enemies and revolution triumphed
over government Which had been
stable for so many years.
But have only told half of the
story. When the diplomatic relations
between the United States and Mexi-
co were hanging by a thread and
shortly prior to the time when John
Lind was sent to Mexico charged with
the task of composing the situation.
the author of the articles which hal
aroused American sentiment against
Diaz, was already in Mexico. On Feb
cuary s, 1913, a day before the upris-
ng of Felix Diaz and Bernado Reyes,
he sequel Of which was the lombard
nent in Mexico City, the Madero news
papers attempted to rally Nexicans to
Nadero's standard by crying inter
7ention, and on that day the same
citizen, who had aroused the
American people against Porfrio Diaz
began the publication OF a series Of
trticles in Ell Pals, an influential daily
newspaper in Mexico City, under the
,aption, "La Verdad acreca de la IN
ervencion Americana" (The truth
bout the American Intervention).
