To the Ministers Of Columbia.

If you are doing your du t y,
a large ma jority Of the
citizenship of this town, are Judging
you wrongfully. In about four weeks
it is announced that a series of meet
ings will start at the Methodist
church and when they close the Bap-
fist people will open one which will
continue through the month Of Sep,
TENDER. Young people must get
right before they will take interest il
religious exercises. We are not one
who believes that vice, any kind of
frivolity, can be squenched by abuse.
To put stop to Objectionable exer-
cises, kindness must be used and a
superabundance of it. Meet the par
ties you are interested in, tell them
in loving words what the best people
think of their conduct, then tell
them what the course they are pur-
suing leads to, refer them to their
sainted mothers if they have passed
through the veil, and the interest
they manifested in them while living;
and if they expect. to meet them in
the world beyond the skies, they
must change their course.
Some years ago there was a hop in
progress in a residence, not in this
town, and pastor of some of the
participants entered the ball room.
The music ceased, and the minister
said: "All will please kneel for pray
er." When he closed there was not a
dry eye in the room. Suffice it to say
that was the last hop held in that
home.

End of 4 Beautiful Life.

The human family soon becomes
reconciled when the death of an old
person occurs in a home, as the lines
on the face indicate that time is rap
idly passing for that one, and that
death is lastly approaching, hence
they are nerved for the final dissolu-
ton.
Not so when the young is called for
persons of tender ages are living in
the body; they are constantly laying
plans for the future, believing that
they will get well. Their cheerful
ness cheers the loved ones about them,
and they, too, look upon the bright
side as long as there is life.
So it was with Mrs. Ruth Stults,
the beloved wife of Mr.. C. T. Suits,
whose death occurred last Thursday
afternoon at ? o'clock. A gentle and
lovely young matron less than q
years old, answered the summons,
and while intently watching her hus-
band and other loved ones about her
bedside, her life ebbed away and her
spirit went to God whom she loved
and obeyed.
She was member of the Christian
Church, daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
r. E Tandy, of Georgetown, Ind,
her mother being with her co the end,
her father arriving after death.
The funeral services were conducted
in he home, by her pas
tor, Ed. z. T. Williams, Friday af-
ternoon at three o'clock. The minis
ter paid loving tribute to her memory,
and admonished the sorrowing hus-
band and all other relatives to be pre-
pared to meet her in the celestial city
beyond the skies.
The interment was in the city Gem
etery, and when the family and other
loved ones withdrew, her last earthly
resting place was covered with beauti-
full and fragrant flowers.
May the God of love comfort the
husband, father, mother, brothers
and sisters, and all other relatives is
the wish of this writer.
While the immediate family more
keenly feel this loss, the father and
mother.in-law, sisters and brother-in-
law, who affectionately loved her,
weep with son and brother.

OIL NEWS.

The oil interest in this section is
not on the wane, but the machinery
at different localities is out of COM
mission. AS soon as repairs can be
made the drilling will proceed.
The machinery has been removed
from the Flowers well, near Zion, to
Henry Ingram's farm, and drilling
will start there in a few days.
Campbell Bros of Greensboro, we're
here a few days ago, accompanied by
a driller, Mr.. Sweet. They stated
that the wells at Greensboro we're
producing we'll, but they wanted to
see it in larger quantities, hence the
wells at this place would be sunk
deeper.

SEEDING CLOVER IN SPRING
On Account Of High Price Of Seed. IL

prepared by the United States Depart

Broadcast clover seed on winter
grain may be done at any time in
early spring and where the soil Is dry
enough 1t may be seeded with a drill.
With clover seed as high in price as
1t Is this year, 1t will pay to be csr >
cially careful about the preparation
OF the seed bed. When the ground Is
still wet nothing can be done In the
way of narrowing and preparing he
seed bed but wherever the ground gets
dry enough to run spike-tooth har-
row across the rows Of grain, the seed
should be narrowed In. This will cot
burt the grain, especially II the teeth
OF the harrow are slanted backward.
Wherever possible 1t will be advisable
to seed with q drill as from two to
four pounds less seed per mere will
be required. With seed costing not far
from 80 cents pound, saving of this
sort will be an important item; further
than that, better stand Is usually
assured when the seed Is drilled, espe-
cially when care is taken to see that
the seed Is put down about one-half
inch deep.

is a long-lived tool. There Is very lit

few moving parts and, IL given good
care, should cause little bother.
Disks should be gone over carefully
every season. During the Writer
months the boxes should be taken

Ing system works and that the bear
ings are getting oil. Keep the arbor

In place.
II the disk Is used much 1t should
be sharpened at least once each sea-

there is less strain and wear on the
