RED OAK GROVE.
Sunday School Institute Great
Success at ParksvilIe. Good
Meeting at Red Oak
Church.

Parksville was well attended. On
Friday night the services were in
structive and quite entertaining.
The Bible class at Clarks Hill put on
very helpful and well rendered pag-
cant, showing the unorganized sys-
tenn, and then the advantage of a
Sunday School. Then the audience
had a real treat, recitation by Miss
Stella Nixon, from North Augusta
graduate in elocution from Ander-.
son College. She will teach this fall
in the high school ,being her second
term there since graduating.
We hope the Sunday school work
will be revived, for there seems to-
be something wrong somewhere
among the church members, gener-
ally. Perhaps our hearts are not right
with out Lord, or we would not need
so many stimulants and so many con-
slant reminders of the duty we owe
to the various works of the cause left;
in our keeping. We may have diff
ferent duties to perform, but all of
US should let our Masters work come.
