LAYMEN MISSIONARY CONVENTION
Second South Carolina Convention Of
National Missionary Campaign to
Be Held at Columbia.

The South Carolina convention OF
the second national missionary cam
paign is to be held in Columbia Feb
ruary 6, I, s, 9, 1916.
Since the first national campaign,
held in 1909-1910, there have been
many significant changes throughout
tae universe. Just at this time prac-
tically the entire world in power and
in might is engaged in devastating war.
Nation after nation is engaged in a
death struggle and hate stalks abroad.
AS these words are written, our United
States Of America is the only world
power at peace with all the nations;
and, as a direct result Of this situa-
ton, we are facing, at home and
abroad, the greatest opportunities for
service ever presented to US. 1t is
important that the laymen Of our
state should assemble again to con-
slider in a practicable and compre-
hensi5e way the general interests of
the Kingdom, to face the special op-
portunities confronting u.s. and to plan
to meet and faithfully discharge our
obligations to evangelize the world; in
short, to "enlist for world service"
The purpose is three fold: ! Infor.
nation, inspiration and method.
The object of the convention is to
furnish information about the work We
should do, to strengthen our convic-
tions that we can do it, and to presen.
methods by which it can be done.
Men who are in closest touch with
our missionary work at home and
abroad will bring first hand information
from the field. Men who are graphing
with policies of administration and
methods will contribute their thoughts
and experiences. Business men Of
large means who have made large in
vestments in the extension of the
Kingdom, and men on small salaries
but with nigh standard Of steward
ship will join in the discussions.
A provisional program will be an
nounced through the press and dis
tributed through the mails as early as
practicable. No effort will be spared
in securing the most effective mis-
sionary speakers available.
Team &C." the designation of the
group of speakers for the South Caro-
lima convention, will give special at
tention to the denominational confer
ences to be held in the afternoon OF
each day. In these meetings will be
considered the main "objectives" :" OF
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1916-01-14

the missionary plans Of the different
denominations. Ghese meetings are
meant TO afford opportunity for a def
nite presentation of denominational
purposes and Of plans for the reali-
zation.
The sessions will be held in the au-
ditorium of the Jefferson hotel, WITH
overflow accommodations provided for
in the Arsenal Hill Presbyterian
church and the Main Street Methodist
Church, both Of which are within
block Of the convention auditorium.
Tne convention will open Sunday,
February 6, 1916, at 800 p. M, and will
continue through Wednesday night.
Every delegate should be present at all
the sessions, if possible. While at
tendance at single sessions is worth
while, the cumulative effect of the pro-
gram is lost by irregular attendance.
The committee is planning definite
ly for the registration of 5000 men.
No limitations are made on the repre-
5entation of denominations or of con-
gregations, every denomination and
every congregation being entitled to
as many delegates as desire to attend
The convention will be self-enter-
tanning, eacn delegate being expected
TO provide for his own expenses. Ar
rangements will be made so that rooms
may be reserved in advance, at the
lowest possible rates. Delegates will
have the choice between hotels, board
ing houses and private homes of per-
sons willing to rent rooms during the
convention. When preferred, rooms
may be secured and meals had at
hotels or restaurants. Visiting minis
ters and pastors will be entertained at
the homes of the church people of Co
lumbia, and will not be charged reg
istration fee.
The Virginia-Carolina Passenger as
sociation has granted round trip
rate to the convention of one and a
third fare plus 25 cents. This is the
same rate granted to the Southern
Commercial congress, and is the very
best rate the railroads grant to any
convention

MAGIC OF IRRIGATION.
etory of the Rice Fields of Southern
louisiana.

Etory Of the Rice Fields OF Southern
Louisiana.
In 1888 lowands in southern Louisi-
ana near the bayous suitable for grow
ing sugar cane, corp and cotton could
be purchased for $3.50 an acre, and
the prairie lands back from the bayous
could be bought for 81 an acre. With
almost the first crop under irrigation,
however, the values showed marked
rise and have continued to increase.
In the first five years the value Of the
best rice lands rose to $40 an acre, and
soon after that it rose to $50 and even
$50 an acre.
The first people to plant rice in south
ern Louisiana, according to the Unit
ed States geological survey, were the
Acadians, who, after their expulsion
from Nova Scotia by the English in
1855, settled in considerable numbers
in Louisiana. Their cultivation Of rice,
almost primitive in it's methods, was
confined to the lowlands along the
bayous, the prairies affording pastur
age for the Acadians' herds of cattle
Few Of the lowland areas admitted OF
satisfactory drainage, and they were
too small for profitable cultivation
The crops frequently failed in years OF
deficient rainfall. Attempts were made
to create additional water supplies by
building levees across low sags or
coulees at points higher than the cul-
tivated areas, but generally either the
rainfall proved deficient or the reser-
voirs were too small.
Little advance was made over the
Acadian methods until recent years.
Experiments in unusually wet years
had shown that the soils Of the prairies
were adapted to the growth of rice II
sufficient water was at hand. This led
to the trial Of pumps as a means OF
raising water from the bayous to the
rice fields. So successful was the test
that pumps were at once installed at
many points. and in few years tens
of thousands Of acres of previously al
most useless land, lying ten to seventy
feet above the bayous. were put under
cr,tivation. The first large pump was
installed in 1894 on the Bayou Plaque
mine, in Acadia parish, near Crowley.

for the Hickory Grove school district

not signed by one-third of the voters
OF the territory. and that the notice Of
the election was irregular and illegal.

DR.. James L. Gordon preached on The

and the general relationship of men
and women in business and out OF Il.
Standards of virtue and vice and their
rewards was the current OF thought Of
DR.. Gordon's sermon. which in places
was plain to the point OF being bald of

type, minus the slang.
