RED OAK GROVE.
Good Attendance Upon Sunday
School. Plans for School
Building Submitted to
Trustees.

There was fairly good attendance
at'Sunday School at Red Oak Grove
on yesterday, considering the disa
greeable weather and such high
wind. Our faithful Superintendent
Mf. w. M. Agner, seems to have
entered the new year with enthusi.
asm and is endeavoring to get the
school we'll organized and actively
at work. To accomplish the task.
he should have and must have, the
cooperation. of the parents, which
we believe Is better reached by cor
relation of social agencies IN Sun
day School welfare. To reach a
people it is essential to know them.
The war topic and the loss of
grain by the late freeze seems to be
upmost in the minds of our farmers
now. We feel very heavily the
loss of tina grain crop. Then in the
face of it, some one has been in
formed, so the merchants say. that
corn will run to 50 per bushel. If
grain Ia killed, many hesitate buy
irg more seed with chances against
them this fall to pay for it.
War and boil weevil threats soar
ing high, is a vast consideration,
ba. all these things are inevitable,
hence to trust our dear Father and
be satisfied, is the thing that brings
reconciliation and contentment.
There is knowledge in wisdom,
and in all things seek wisdom. A
wise course to pursue to-day, is a
home productive course"
The plans for the new school
building at Flat Rock have been
presented to the trustees and are un-
der consideration. We cheer them
for their perseverance in this mat
Ter, and evidently they will meet
with some obstacles all along, but
nothing of 80 much Importance as

They Stand Up Now.

1t is interesting to observe how
many people, in the past week or
so, have changed their mental-or
perhaps one should say, their emo
tional-attltude towards The Star
Spangled Banner" Before tile
German crisis developed, the theater
orchestras could play The Star
Spangled Banner without evoking
anything more than very mild de-
monstration of patriotic feeling.
Sometimes not more than three or
four people in the audience would
rise to their feet. 1t was seldom
that anything like half the audience
rose and those that did rise would
get to their feet slowly and hesitat-
ingly, as though they were a little
ashamed. 1t is very different now;
and people from other parts of the
country who have criticised US on
this score have no further reason to
complain. When The Star Span
gled Banner" is played in Charles
ton theaters now, everybody stands
up and stands up at once and there
is loud applause when the music
dies away. 1t is an interesting side
light and an instructive one.-News
and Courier.

Bitten by Mad Dog,

The friends of Mr.. Jack Griffis
of the Berea- Gilgal section will re-
gret to learn that he was bitten on
his left thumb by a mad dog Fri
day. His dog had been away from
home for several days and when the
canine returned Mr.. Griffis noticed
that it acted rather strangely, and
was in the act of con6ning it 70
await developments, when the dog
bit him on the finger. The dog was
killed and its head sent to Colum-
bia for a scientific examination.
Tuesday afternoon telegram was
received from Columbia stating that
that the dog had rabies. Mr.. Grif,
fis, accompanied by his son, left
this morning for Grovetown, Ga.
in an automobile to apply the mad
stone to the wound. Whether the
stone adheres or not, he will return
as early as possible and take the
Pasteur treatment to counteract the
poison, if any entered his system.
In case of being bitten by dog
with hydrophobia, there is cause for
concern but not alarm. Statistics
show that only about 10 per cent.
of persons bitten by dogs develop
hydrophobia, and there is practical
ly no danger when the Pasteur
treatment is administered in time.

Senator Tillman's National
Slogan.

Nothing better was said at the
Capitol on Saturday than what
was said by Senator Tillman, when
he expressed the sense of the vast
majority of the people of this
country:
We will do the best we can, and
I have no doubt we will live up to
our past record IN taking care of
rights and ourselves. We don't
take passes from anybody to 90
anywhere We damn please on the
seas.
That is the best thins Senator
Tillman ever said. Pass it along,
everybody. as the slogan of the
American people: I'VE damn please
on the seas" You can't beat it.
1t rings like fire bell in the night:
