Arrived From Overseas.

a call fro m John Agner yesterday
afternoon. He has just arrived from
France, having secured an honorable
discharge through an application
from his father, Mr.. Sam Agner, be-
cause he is greatly needed on the

How Diphtheria is Contracted.

One often hears the expression,
"My child caught a severe cold which
developed into diphtheria," when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly suscep-
tible to the wandering diphthera
germ. If your child has cold when
diphtheria is prevalent you should
take him out of school and keep him
off the street until fully recovered,
as there is a hundred times more dan
ger of his taking diphtheria when he
has a cold. When Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is given it quickly
cures the cold and lessons the dan
ger of diphtheria or any other germ
disease being contracted.

Are You a Baptist :?

church work at home and on mission
fields come from our UNCONVENTIONAL
schools! They are producing more
than four to one of the great MEN
and women in all walks of life-in
science, in literature, in statesman
ship, in business and in church work!
= Certainly, then, in the light of their
splendid work they are worth pre-
serving and strengthening! Further
more, the denominations colleges in
South Carolina are providing for
more than half the students in the
State. Hence, they are vital part of
the school system in this State.
4. YOU OUGHT TO KNOW also
that Christ has laid the duty of edu-
cation on his people just as truly as
he has the duty of evangelism. Sure,
we must seek to save the souls of
men. This is our primary task. But
we must not stop there. We must al
SO train them for larger and fuller
living and for more efficient service
in the Kingdom Of God. Of all denom-
nations Baptists are most dependent
upon the intelligent cooperation of
their people. More than any other de-
nomination, therefore, must educate
or we shall perish
5. YOU OUGHT TO HAVE A
SHARE in this great educational
work of your denomination. Here is
your opportunity. In the present cam
paign to relieve our institutions of
debt and to strengthen them for bet
ter service, there is place for every
Baptist in the State! We need the
men of large means with their large
gifts, we need those of moderate
means with their moderate gifts, and
we need the men of small means with
their small gifts. Let each one give
as God has prospered him, or her!
Get into it and let US make this great
campaign glorious success!

1. YOU OUGHT TO KNOW that
there are about one hundred and six
ty-fve thousand white Baptists in
South Carolina. Perhaps little more
than half the white church members
in the State are Baptists! Our people
represent. every class of society,
hence we may consider ourselves as
representative of the people of the
State. Then this means that we have
among our members our share of the
illiterate and the near illiterate! We
have more illiterates among our
church membership than all the other
denominations in the State-simply
because there are more of US than of
all the others! THIS is OUR GREAT
CHURCH PROBLEM!
2. YOU OUGHT TO KNOW that
a great responsibility rests upon us
as denomination because of the a.
bove facts. We ought in every way
possible to foster the common schools
of the State; but we must not stop
there! We must also provide schools
and colleges of our own in which to
educate our people in sympathy with
our ideals and convictions. We dare
not leave the task of education in the
hands of secular forces. If the great
world war has taught us nothing
more it has certainly taught US that
state monopoly in education soon
leads to a Christless culture. Christ
less culture means the situation in
Germany! If we would prevent this
in America we must maintain a
strong system of UNCONVENTIONAL
schools both for the work they do in
themselves and for their salutary in
f1uence on the State school system!

the denominational schools are rem
dering a great service both to the
church and to society as a whole. A

ASQUITH PAYS TRIBUTE
 TO SIR HERBERT TREE
Manchester Guardianl

The unveiling of a tablet at His Majesty's theater to the memory of Sir Herbert Tree was the occasion of a series of tributes to the actor. in which Mir. Asquith, Lord Reading. Sir Squire Bancroft, and C. F. Gill joined
 MT. Asquith unveiled a mural tablet placed at the corner of the theater at the junction of the Haymarket and Charles street.
 At meeting in the theater later MT. Asquith observed that we felt we shared with the actor kind of in- timacy which we did not experience with the painter, the sculptor, or even the poet. He remembered that when MT. Gladstone was at the height os his fame and was even called the idol of the nation, a shrewd observer said that if there were a plebiscite as to who was the most popular man fn England, MT. Gladstone would b, easily beaten by w. c. Grace. He (AIr Asquith) could not help thinking that another most formidable competitor would have been Henry Irving.
 There had been few, if any, actors of our time for whom that sentiment
