continue through the noon on March

600 and q church membership of
over 100000. between 1900 and

Spartanburg in 1915 reached the
high water mark OF that number.

ing by choice thus holding a unique
place among religious gatherings of
the State, and a forerunner OF what
must be with all. The reason for
this position is that few citizens can
entertain such large gathering
without embarrassment, and the
Federation is unwilling to place any
city in debt for it's entertainment,
thus maintaining its own self-respect.

Red Cross Gets Part of
Proceeds of Each Sale
of Popular Service Flags

Recruiting officers called attention
to an interesting fact in connection
with the service flag which appear
all over the city. Since the begin
ming of the war, the regulation SER
vice flag which is a blue star on a
white field bordered with red, is now
futtering in every portion of the
city, signifying the departure of the
men from their homes, schools, So
cieties, clubs, lodges and places OF
employment. Very few people real
ize that on every one of these flags
purchased a certain amount of the
cost is contributed by the designer,
Capt. r. l.. Queiser of Cleveland,
Ohio, to the National Red Cross
The design has been patented, and
10 per cent of the royalties on the
thousand of flags since manufac-
tured will be contributed to the Red
Cross. The royalties are ten per
cent, and already amount to thous-
ands of dollars.
The regulation service flag was
designed by Captain Queiser in an
swer to his wife's desire to do hon
or to her two sons, who are in the
army. Since the time the flag was
designed, many thousands of other
men have been remembered al
home by the displaying of a service

king, for the sake of casting in his
lot with his own fellow-patriots in
their poverty and danger. Nehemiah
was greater in the act of renouncing
the court of Persia than when he
stood, taskmaster and general, upon
the rising walls of Jerusalem. His
patriotusm was equal to self-renun-
citation. 1t was splendidly selfish.
In the words honor roll of the he
roes of patriotism. Nehemiahs name
stands high.
What Is Your Trouble?
After the news of the plight OF
Jerusalem had been borne to him by
travellers from Palestine. Nehemiah
went about the court of Shushan
with a woe-begone face. Anybody
who saw him could read at once that
he was in trouble. Now, everybody
has trouble, but some are troubled
by more troubles than others. One
man wears glum face because he
lost collar button when he was
dressing in the morning; another is
sour of visage because his breakfast
was not well cooked; still another
looks troubled because financial diff
ficulties have overtaken him. The
newspapers report entire communi-
ties as appearing dismal because
their home team has lost the big
game.
The kind of trouble that troubles
a man is a fairly good index of his
character. Nehemiah's sad counte-
nance was because of his nations
pitiable plight. He was above NOV
ing among his race with a melan-
choly face on account of his own
petty difficulties. His passion for his
people was rooted so deeply in his
soul that it bore the fruit of sorrow
on his features. He did not think
about it-like all truly great men in
crisis he was free from self-con-
sciousness-but the very sorrow of
Nehemiah was profo of his bigness.
nations woe rested heavily upon
his heart. He wept for the same
reason that a greater Son of Israel
was to weep a few centuries later.
We should link Nehemiah, sorrow
ing over Jerusalem'S plight, with
that other supreme Patriot, who also
wept over the need of the same city.
Since everybody must have some
sort of trouble, let us have the big
troubles, troubles that come to men
OF full stature, the troubles that are
an index of chivalry, of spirit and
ChristlinesS of Sympathy. If we
wept, let it not be for our own petty
trials, but for our nations need and
the worlds woe.
