about the home, or engaging in any
frivolous or non-productive occupa-
ton. This is time for labor, and
waste OF time Is not far removed
from sin.
Let our officials, municipal and
county, look to the idlers Of town
and country. There Is where the
great waste Of energy takes place.
The idlers are by no means confined
to the streets and to the open places
The vagrancy law keeps many an
idler within the walls Of his home,
which In ordinary times may we'll be
regarded as his castle" and inviola-
bic save when crime is committed
and the law permits invasion to take
a culprit. To-day, however. idloness
Is close akin to crime, and the man
who loafs about his home should be
hauled out and forced to work.
Cooperation on the part Of all our
people, in the towns and in the coun-
try. will go far, with the aid Of vigi-
lance on the part Of our authorities,
toward filling up the ranks Of labor
and harnessing the idlers Of to-day
into active and useful labor.
Then, too, a little sacrifice on the
part Of citizens who may contemplate
SiCStliS Will
go long way toward relieving the
labor situation as 1t bears on the
farm problems. All such work should
be set aside until after the rush sea-
son In farm work.
Cooperation and thoughtful con-
sideration Of the necessities of the
moment, the laying aside Of all nom
essential work and pushing that only
which Is essential; vigilance in taxi
ing In hand all idlers, and getting
down hard at it by the farmers them
selves, will go long way toward
bringing labor conditions almost to
normal in efficiency and results.
Let us all work to that end Can't.
Ballonger's suggestions are very
timely, and ought not, in the major
ity OF eases at least, to prove i'm
practical.

Just here l am reminded Of the old

Just here am reminded Of the old
fellow in Georgia who lost his old
SOW, and he, with his little boy, went
down into his field to look for her
and when they came to ditch down
| In the bottom they found by her
tracks that she had gone up the
ditch, and the old man said, "Son,
you go up on that side Of tho ditch
and | will go up on this side, for the
old SOW might be on both Sides" So,
while Germany is now on the other
side Of the ditch, she Is looking this
way, apd If we don't head her off, she
may soon be on both sides.
We hear the statement made from
every quarter, 81 wish the war would
end Well, the more we donate to
the Red Cross, the quicker it will end.
II we want 1t to end quickly, we may
just as well make up our minds to
pay the price for peace.
Oconee county has never yet fallen
behind in raising her share when she
was called upon, and | certainly hope
that she will go even over her appor-
tionment this time.
| am now In a revival meeting at
Albemarle, N. c., and one of the lat
est German efforts to injure the Red
Cross work here Is in circulation-a
malicious lie regarding the women
workers and nurses employed by the
Red Cross. They have it going here
that these women are a company of
harlots, living off of the substance Of
our people at home. This shows just
what diabolical schemes the German
propagandists will resort to in their
efforts to obstruct our work.
In conclusion, let me say that this
war Is Gods mourners' bench, and
we might just as we'll make up our
minds to put on sackcloth now or
face worse things later on. Our SELF
ishness must be surrendered or we
must pay the penalty for allowing it
to rule our lives.
"Inasmuch as ye did it not to one
of the least of these, ye did it not to
me- (Matt. 25:45).

Little Sara Edwards, while play
ing on the back porch at her home,
in some way lost her balance and fell
to the ground, breaking her arm
above the wrist. Sara is the five
year-old daughter OF Mrs. l.. a. Ed

Harper also happened to the misfor-
tune to fall. while playing in the
yard, and broke his arm. The little
sufferers are both getting along nice

playful as formerly in a short time.
Misses Ada and Lola Wyly. OF

the past week her aunt, Mrs. IMcIver,

most pleasantly with his sister, Mrs.

The numerous friends of Miss Kit

illness Of a weeks duration. Miss
Adams was near Townville, in the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. ELIAS Earle,

Her condition Is somewhat improved
and Is In every way more encourag-

A lovely social affair for the young
society circle was porch party at
the home Of Mrs. D. P. Thomson
when the ninth grade entertained the
tenth grade Of the high school. The
spacious porch, with soft lights and
with a profusion Of Dorothy Perkins
roses. made beautiful setting for
the occasion. Misses Alice Adams
and Frances Alexander presided over
the punch bowl. Progressive games
were enjoyed until late hour, when
cream and cake were served.
The hour for Sunday evening SER
vices at the Presbyterian church has
been changed from $50 to 7 D. NJ.
This change has met the approval of
the congregation and it will encour-
age the children to attend the SER
vices. Especially Is this early hour
desirable, as the pastor, Rev. I. e.
Wallace. is preaching a series Of SER
mons for the young people, and by
this change they can attend the SER
vices.
The Sunday School Conference Of
the NJ. e. Church was held in the
Methodist church Thursday of last
week. w. c. Watts, field secretary,
and Miss Marie Mcdaniel, elementary

their hearers. The attendance was
good at each Of the sessions.

Boiled down in a nutshell, it is about
