prayer touched me and caused

Sincerely.
Mrs. g. B. Hall.
We have had a wild storm of
money madness, and a strang-
ing deluge OF its attendant evils.
To me st. Paul's stirring figure,
the God of this world hath
blinded the minds of the unbe-
lieving', that the light of the
gospel of the glory of Christ, who
is the image of God, should not
dawn upon them. There is
no boubt that for the time being
multitudes of people have for
gotten their souls. in order to
seek ease and luxury for their
bodies. They have turned away
from service in order to get gain.
The gospel has had the hardest
battle it has ever fought since
the early days, when it had to
make it's way through paganism,
across the shattered ruins of
human nature itself. A general
disposition to invent his own re.
ligion, but certainly it will never
save the soul. What is needed
is salvation of the soul, and there
can be no improvement without
that. Man must be made to for
sake and loathe his sins. He
must get ready to live forever.
One has made a poor job or his
life when he does nothing more
than learn to live well in the an
imal sense.
To make life a real success, he
must prepare to meet God. and
to dwell with Him forever.
The cure for a vanishing
church membership, and the
way of deliverance from the
binding materialism, which hold
the people down to earth today.
is through the preaching of the
gospel. A true church is an
evangelistic, missionary, crusad-
ing b,dy of men and women.
who have been redeemed by the
love of God in Christ Jesus, and
who are driven forth into the
world with a great aching and
passion to save the lost.
The church that compromises
with the follles of humanity is a
faithless church.
Religion is not worth anything
unless it makes positive demands
upon men. 1t must challenge
the people to get out of the
heaviness and grip of the flesh
and climb the hills and live the
life of the spirit
The Master made the world
his family. The sickness of any
human is His family affairs.
He had no time for the claims
of commerce. He curtly refused
the invitation to become an ad.

is trying to keep men from losing
their sight, their legs, their arms, their
fingers and toes, which never can be
replaced. It is trying to avoid desti-
tuition and misery and the making OF
widows and orphans. Are you
booster for safety, or are you one OF
the many who think it is joke, and
stand idly by, permitting your fellow
workmen to be injured under cir
cumstances which little care on your

Civic League
Increases Membership
Mrs. Williamson Heads Strong
Organization

That the Civic League will begin its;
faii term with renewed vig6r, was in
dlcated at the last meeting of the sum-
mer when Mrs. L. e. Wood of the
membership committee reported 13O
new members with dues paid, besides
telling OF others who intend to Join.
The message from these new members
was that they wanted to work in the
uppuildlng OF Sumter. and the Presi-
dent, Mrs. williamson, has asked that
when they see their names in the
Item on committees they will consider
it a notification.
AT the melting the chairmen of
standing committees made their re-
ports, one of general interest at this
season being that Misses Frances De-
Lorme and Jeannette White are in
charge of the play grounds, which arc
now open both morning and afternoon.
Several donations have been made to
this branch of the work but more is
needed TO buy new balls and games,
repair benches, etc.
Another interesting report was that
Miss Antonio Gibson had taken sever
al sick children TO the seashore, Of
course. leaving a nurse in charge of
her city work This charity was malc
possible by the generosity Of some OF
our public-spirited citizens. "A welcome
gift reported was that Of a check to
the nurse fund from the Automobile
club that has disbanded g..
Mrs. Dillon was next called upon to
tell of what she is doing at Memorial
Park. Mrs. Dillon is Il leading club
woman of Augusta and knows how to
interest others in her work. She told
of her plans for the new park, of the
shrubs she was planting, of the need
OF towering plants, seats, drinking
fountains, etc. The League was so
aroused by her enthusiasm that it was
decided to undertake for it's work in
the park a memorial fountain with a
suitable tablet in an appropriate set
ting. While this is big undertaking,
the members feel equal to it, and a
committee will present definite plans
at the September meeting.
After the president called the at
tention of the members to the district
conference Of Federated Clubs to meet
here for day in October, the League
adjourned for the Summer. '

Charleston, July t2.-Bank clear
ings Of Charleston fiduciary institu-

year show an increase over the same
period for 1919 of nearly $41,OOO,-
600, the total clearings since Janu-
ary 1 being s133.44S, ,693.23. 1t is
expected that the next quarter OF
bank business will push the total be-
yond that for the entire year of 1919,
when the clearings passed $40, 900
600 and were Of record proportions
at the time. This heavy increase is
taken as an excellent indication OF
Charleston's growing prosperity.

BEES HOUSED IN COTTAGES"
Lithuanian Ralssrs % Honey Furnish
Really Attractive Homes for
g. the lnseeta

Beehives In Lithuania are not the
comfortable round igloolike huts that
ate commonly used in America. They
are built very much like the Lithu.
ahlan home, with slanting gable and
quaint doorway.
The cottages which they build are
considerably larger than the round
American hiyes. Double walls are
built 60 that q protective warmth
may be kept In the hives and prevent
the bees from freezing during the ex.
trems cold Of the long winters. Pine

poeed TO be greater protection

common tree In the forest lands Of the

pesA starved Of liberty and self.asser-
tion during, centuries. He has been
opprsssed BY Germans and he has
oesn oppressed by Russians-not only
MS art and his literature but even his
language has been suppressed.
During the years of oppression one
oi tne chief amusements and art me-
0uns was the painting OF hives. The
n!snest degree of artistic beauty was
oaten realized. Color combinations Of
originality and richness were strived
ior. And 1t is notable that a bee
farmor tried as many different schemes

hives from one another.
