Moro Than Life,

Religion IL not a matter Of intel
lectual luxury to those Of us who are
interested In 1t, but something very
different. 1t is our life; and more
than our life; for that is measured
by pulsebeats hut our religious con-
sciousness pnrtakes Of the infinite.
toward which 1t is constantly yearn-
ing. 1t Is very possible that q hun
dred or Ave hundred years from now
the forms of religious belief may be
so altered that we should hardly know
them. But the sense OF dependence
on divine influence, and the nesd of
communion with the unseen and eter-
nal will he then Just what they are
now. Ii IS not the geolOeist'S hammer,
or the Astronomers telescope, or the
nnturalist's microscope, that Is going
to take away the need OF the human
soul for that rock to rest upon.-.Oli-
yer Wendell Homes.

Charleston.-Some two hours after
the news had been flashed by cable
and over the wires that the Germans
had signed the peace treaty, nearly
1000 Germons. including women and
children, left Charleston aboard the
transport Martha Washington to re.
turn to their country. via Rotterdam.
to which port the ship is bound.
The transport proceeded down
Cooper River from the port terminals
and through the bay to the jettfes at
smart speed. and no tears were shed
by spectators along the waterfront at
the departure Of the repatriates. The
bells Of St Michael's Church chimes
were ringing, but neither in celebra.
tion OF peace signing nor in jubilation
over getting rid of this batch of aliens
The old bells were observing the time
honored Carolina Day" anniversary.
Much indeed has happened on juno
2S with today's events, and for Char.
lesion particularly was the day inter.
esting, with the signing OF the peace.
the anniversary of Sir Peter Parker's
defeat and the Kidding OF the country
Of about 1000 German aliens.
